As we known,serum creatinine(Scr),serum urea nitrogen(SUN) and creatinine clearance rate(Ccr),the most established marker of renal function,are affected by age,gender,muscle mass or nutritional status.Scr determines the glomerular filtration rate(GFR) improperly.Serum Cystatin C(sCys C) is freely filtered at the glomerulus and then resorbed and fully catabolised by proximal renal tubules,ma-king it an ideal marker of GFR.It is not affected by gender,muscle mass or malignancy,its production rate is usually constant and its plasma concentration therefore is dependent only on GFR.sCys C has been demonstrated to be more accurate and sensitive than Scr in the detection of early renal impairment and in specific populations may allow for early detection of renal disease.The aim is to discuss the advantages and limitations of sCys C and of established GFR methods.

Objective To search for and investigate the relationship between the differently expressed gene and pulmonary thromboembolism.Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from pulmonary thromboembolism patients who were diagnosed and sex,age matched healthy controls.To screen differently expressed mRNA fragment which was related to pulmonary thromboembolism.Analyze one of the new ESTs.Simultaneity and homology comparison were made.Results First,fifty-five candidate mRNA fragments were chosen.Analysis of ten candidate mRNA fragments among them(up regulation or down regulation more than 3 times)were made by using Homology search,which confirmed that g44 and g48 were new sequence and were registered to GenBank.Making g44 be probe,northern blot was used to analyze one of the new ESTs.Signal of cross was found in controls and patients with pulmonary thromboembolism.It was significantly strong in the patient group compared with the control group.Conclusion These results reveal that new fragments have a strong expression in pulmonary thromboembolism group than control group.It suggests that these two new gene fragments may play an important role in the process of pulmonary thromoembolism as pathogenic gene.

Objective:To analyze the feature of anaphylactic shock induced by alprostadil injection. Methods: Totally 1624 pa-tients treated with alprostadil injection in our hospital from January to March 2014 were undergone adverse drug reaction monitoring. Six cases of anaphylactic shock induced by alprostadil injection were statistically analyzed. Results:6 cases of anaphylactic shock induced by alprostadil injection occurred in the department of intervention and most of thd reaction happened in arterial injection. Two lot num-ber of drugs were in high frequency. Patients showed a sharp fall in blood pressure, chest discomfor, palpitation, shortness of breath, paleness, sweating and other symptoms. After anti allergy, blood pressure, oxygen the rapy and other treatment measures vital signs gradully stabilized. Conclusion:Anaphylactic shock induced by alprostadil injection is in correlation with the administration mode of artery injection. The change of the patient' s condition and vital signs should be closely observed when we inject the patient with alpros-tadil injection. We must prevent the occurrence of serious adverse reactions.

AIM: To build an allergic rhinitis model to evaluate the effect of budesonide on the eosinophils and histamine in nasal mucosa in allergic rhinitis guinea pig.METHODS: 33 guinea pigs were randomly divided into three groups: natural controlled group,allergic rhinitis(AR) group and budesonide treatment group.Allergic rhinitis model in guinea pigs were built by using toluene-2,4-disocyanate(TDI) nasal immunization and challenge.The indexes of clinical symptoms,pathomorphological diagnosis and content of histamine in mucosa were used to evaluate the potency of budesonide when used to treat allergic rhinitis.RESULTS: The expression of eosinophils and the content of histamine in nasal mucosa in AR group both were significantly higher than that of in natural controlled group(respectively,P(0.05)).CONCLUSION: Budesonide could effectively reduce the expression of eosinophils and content of histamine in nasal mucosa,but it is invalid in releasing the symptoms of AR in guinea pig.The reason of this phenomenon may be concerned with the method of model building.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of urine Cystatin C(Cys C) for renal function impairment in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE).Methods The urine Cys C concentration was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) in 47 cases of HIE newborns(25 cases were mild HIE and 22 cases were moderate-severe HIE) within 3 days after their birth.Twenty-three cases without perinatal asphyxia or other factors which could result in renal function impairment were selected as control group.Urine Cys C with urine retinal-bindingprotein(RBP),?2-microglobulin(?2-MG) and fractional sodium excretion(FENa%) were analyzed by kolmogorov-smirno in each group.Results Compared with control group,the concentration of urine Cys C,RBP and the levels of FENa% in HIE newborns were significantly elevated.The levels of urine Cys C in moderate-severe HIE newborns were significantly higher than those in mild HIE newborns(Pa

Objective To investigate the correlations between the clinical manifestations based on pathologic grades and renal pathological features of Henoch - Schonlein purpura nephritis(HSPN)in children. Methods The clinical data of 77 patients with HSPN in the Department of Nephrology,Anhui Provincial Children's Hospital from Ja-nuary 2004 to March 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. The relationship between clinical manifestation and pathologi-cal features was analyzed. Results Among the 77 patients,21 cases(27. 3% )had both abdominal symptoms,and ar-thritis was reported in 15 cases(19. 5% ),28 cases(36. 4% )had abdominal symptoms and arthritis,and 13 cases (16. 9% )had no such symptoms. Hematuria and proteinuria were the most common clinical types[48. 1%(37 / 77 ca-ses)],followed by simple hematuria or proteinuria[27. 3%(21 / 77 cases)],nephrotic syndrome[23. 4%(18 / 77 ca-ses)],and chronic nephritis[1. 3%(1 / 77 cases)]. The major of pathological changes in HSPN were grade Ⅱ[46. 8%(36 / 77 cases)]and grade Ⅲ[45. 5%(35 / 77 cases)],the minority of them were grade Ⅰ[6. 5%(5 / 77 cases)]and grade Ⅳ[1. 3%(1 / 77 cases)]. The severity of urine protein was positively associated with pathologic classification (r s = 0. 472,P = 0. 000). According to the glomerular deposition of immune complex,there were 6 types. The percen-tage of deposition of IgA + IgM was 62. 3%(48 / 77 cases),IgA + IgG + IgM was 19. 5%(15 / 77 cases),IgA 14. 3%(11 / 77 cases),that of IgA + IgG 1. 3%(1 / 77 cases),and the IgM 1. 3%(1 / 77 cases),no Ig 1. 3%(1 / 77 cases). In these cases,76. 6%(59 / 77 cases)had complements C3 deposition;pathologic stage characterized by Ⅲ level and a-bove were common[54. 2%(32 / 59 cases)],Ⅱ level 42. 2%(25 / 29 cases),Ⅰ level 3. 4%(2 / 59 cases). Among the different types of immune complex depositions,there was no statistically significant difference in pathological types of distribution,while the clinical type and complements C3 deposition were significantly associated with pathologic classifi-cation(rs = 0. 361,P = 0. 001). Sixty - two cases were rated as level 1(80. 5% ),and 15 cases was level 2(19. 5% );in different clinical group,rating in glomeruli was statistically different(χ2 = 17. 2,P = 0. 004). Renal tubular interstitial rating of all the patients were level 1(100% ). Conclusions The severity of urine protein,complements C3 deposition is associated with pathologic classification. Pathologic classification can basically reflect the renal damage in HSPN.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of Chinese composite recipe in treating mycotic infection.

METHODSThe growth condition of 7 kinds of fungi cultured on the media containing composite agastache lotion (CAL, consisted of 5 Chinese drugs) of different concentration was observed. Result showed that CAL could inhibit 7 kinds of fungi.
