Objective To evaluate the safety and possibility of coronary intervention in uremic patients on dialysis. Methods Three uremic patients with unstable angina pectoris were treated successfully with percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and stenting. In order to minimize the adverse effect on kidney due to contrast, non-ionic and low osmolar contrast medium was used and coronary angiography and intervention therapy were performed separately. Further protection of the renal function was effected by more frequent dialysis and increasing fluid administration. Results Coronary contrary shows the stenosis of multiple vessels in one patient, unique vessel lesion in two patients. One to four stents were placed. Clinical follow-up period of 12-18 months after procedure, angina pectoris disappeared in all three patients and no deterioration of renal function was noted. Conclusion It is possible to perform coronary angiography and stenting in uremic patients on hemodialysis successfully and safely, provided due attention was paid to the choice of contrast medium and protective measures for renal function.

AIM:To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of lipoic acid (LA) on redox regulation and digestive function in intestine of C57BL/6 mice fed high fat diet (HFD).METHODS:C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to one of three groups (n=8). The control group consumed an ordinary diet. The other two experimental groups were fed with a high fat diet,high fat plus 0.1% LA. After 6 weeks,the activities of digestive enzymes were examined. In order to evaluate the antioxidant status of the mice,superoxide dismutase (SOD),malondialdehyde (MDA),total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in intestinal homogenate were measured. To investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of LA,the gene expression profiles in intestine were examined using the GeneChip microarray system.RESULTS:A depressed antioxidant defense system,accompanied by digestive and absorptive function impairment,was observed in HFD-fed mice. These changes were partially restored in the LA-treated group. DNA microarray analysis of intestine showed that LA ingestion up-regulated the expression of genes related to free-radical scavenger enzymes,digestive enzymes and transporters.CONCLUSION:Treatment with LA improves redox homeostasis and the function of intestine in mice fed HFD. The mechanism may involve preventing oxidative stress by scavenging ROS directly and increasing those of free-radical scavenger enzymes gene expression indirectly.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of allopurinol in kainic acid-induced epileptic rats and to explore new ideas and methods for the clinical treatment of epilepsy. Methods 120 Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham group, KA epilepsy group and allopurinol groups. Six rats of each group were randomly selected and were given electrodes into their left frontal and hippocampal regions. After injection, behavior changes were observed in all rates without electrodes. 24 h later, MDA level and SOD enzymatic activity of the left hippocampi were measured. One week later, the EEGs were recorded in rates with electrode, as well as total time of seizures /30 min and numbers of seizures / 30 min. Results Compared with the KA model group, latency period of the epilepsy in the allopurinol group was longer (P < 0.05) and the extent was lighter (P < 0.05); the MDA level was significantly lower (P < 0.01), the SOD enzymatic activity was significantly higher (P < 0.01). The total time of seizures / 30min and numbers of seizures / 30 min in allopurinol group reduced significantly (P < 0.01). Conclusion Allopurinol has potential antiepileptic and antioxidative activities in kainic acid-induced epileptic rats.

Objective To observe the possible relationship of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) with cardiac disease and death events in hemodialysis patients Methods The cTnT was measured with dry chemical method in 57 hemodialysis patients The patients were followed up for one year Results The concentration of cTnT was more than 0 10 ?g/L in 12 of the 57 unselected hemodialysis patients 8 in the 12 patients were diagnosed as diabetes mellitus 7 of 12 patients died and the death reason was acute left ventricular failure(33 3%) in 4 patients In other 45 patients with normal cTnT, 3 died and only 1 died of heart failure(2 22%) The cTnT concentrations of pre-and post-hemodialysis were measured in 24 patients The concentration was more than 0 1 ?g/L in 6 patients before dialysis Post-dialysis concentration was increased in 5 patients', the value was decreased in the other one Conclusions In hemodialysis patients without acute myocardial infarction, mortality and cardiovascular events are closely correlated with the increase of cTnT concentration. Patients with diabetes mellitus have higher incidence in the abnormality of cTnT concentration.The process of hemodialysis does not affect the concentration of cTnT.

Objective To evaluate the effect and safety of anticoagulant citrate dextrose solution A (ACD-A ) in continuous blood purification (CBP) for patients at high risk of bleeding with ARF. Methods Twelve patients at high risk of bleeding, treated with continuous venovenous hemofiltration(CVVH), were divided into regional citrate anticoagulant (RCA) group and control group. In the former, ACD-A solution was delivered, pre-filter , with the rate adjusted to maintain a postfilter ionized calcium (iCa2+) level between 0.30-0.40 mmol/L. Before the extracorporeal blood returned to the patient, 10% calcium gluconate was infused to maintain a systemic iCa2+ level between 0.90-1.20 mmol/L. In control group, CVVH were performed either with low dose of heparin LMW sodium (1700-2500 IU/12 h-24 h)or without anticoagulant. The life span of each hemofilter was recorded. In RCA group, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) , acid-base changes, serum sodium and iCa2+ were monitored pre- and during CVVH. Result In the whole duration 1192.5 hours of CVVH in RCA group and 596 hours in control group, 62 and 42 hemofilters were used, respectively. Filter survival was 65.3% at 24 h and 24.5% at 48 h in RCA group,while 14.5% and 0 in control group. The mean life span of filter in RCA group was significantly longer than that in control group[(29.4?21.0) (1.5-71.5)h vs( 14.2?8.2) (4.5-40)h, P

Objective To investigate serum cardiac troponin T(cTnT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and assess the prognostic values of cTnT and CRP of mortality and cardiovascular events in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Methods One hundred and six MHD patients were enrolled in this study. Serum cTnT, CRP, creatinine, albumin were measured in pre-hemodialysis at the beginning of the study. The mortality and cardiovascular events were recorded during the period of follow up. Results At the initiation of the study,28 patients (26.42%) were recorded with positive cTnT level, 32(30.19%) with positive CRP and 16 (15.09%) with positive cTnT and CRP. Logistic regression analysis showed a significant correlation between serum cTnT and serum CRP and Scr. Patients with positive cTnT and CRP levels had higher mortality and more cardiovascular events than those with negative levels. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed a significant difference between patients with normal and abnormal cTnT and CRP levels. Conclusions Some MHD patients have elevated serum cTnT level. Serum cTnT level is correlated with serum CRP and creatinine level. Patients with positive cTnT and CRP levels have higher mortality and more cardiovascular events than those with negative levels.

Objective To explore the influence of high fat diet on the intestinal gene expression profile in C57BL/6 mice. Method C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to two groups (n=8). The control group consumed an ordinary diet. The experimental group was fed with a high fat diet. All mice were sacrificed at the end of 6 w and the intestinal gene expressions were detected by oligonucleotide microarray analysis with Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse U430A consisting of 13 097 genes. Results Among the 13 097 genes obtained from gene expression profile analysis, there were 88 and 179 genes up -and down-regulated respectively, in mice fed with high fat diet compared with the control. The differentially expressed genes were mainly related to free radical oxidative stress, DNA repair, induction of apoptosis, transport, signal transduction and inflammation immune response. Conclusion High fat diet may widely modulate the expression of many genes in the intestine in mice.
