Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an effective method for treating various hematological diseases. Membranous nephropathy is the second leading cause of novo glomerular disease after transplantation. Protocadherin FAT1 is a target antigen for diagnosing membranous nephropathy, primarily related to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Here we report a rare case of membranous nephropathy after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The target antigen of membranous nephropathy was confirmed to be FAT1 by pathology combined with mass spectrometry analysis. The nephrotic syndrome achieved partial remission after corticosteroid combined with cyclosporine treatment, and the patient's condition was stable during follow-up.

Objective To study the effects of Xihuang pills combined with sodium cantharidinate and vitamin B6 injection in the treatment of tumor-induced fever. Methods A total of 100 patients with tumor-induced fever in our hospital from March 2015 to January 2017 were enrolled in this study. The subjects were divided into the control group (n=50) and the treatment group (n=50) randomly. The control group were treated with aspirin-D L-Lysine injection, and the treatment group were treated with Xihuang pills combined with sodium cantharidinate and vitamin B6 injection. The two groups were treated for 2 periods. The clinical effects of the two groups after treatment were compared. The life quality of the two groups after treatment were compared. The serum TNF-α and IL-1β of the two groups before and after treatment were compared. The adverse reaction rates of the two groups during treatment were compared. Results The total efficacy rate of defervescence of the treatment group was 88.0%(44/50) significantly higher than 56.0%(28/50) of the control group (χ2=12.698, P=0.000). After treatment, the daily life score (1.10 ± 0.18 vs. 2.47 ± 0.21, t=35.025), social communication score (1.21 ± 0.13 vs. 2.53 ± 0.25, t=33.124), mental state score (1.08 ± 0.15 vs. 2.75 ± 0.21,t=45.758), appetite score (1.13 ± 0.16 vs. 2.56 ± 0.19, t=40.708), sleep score (1.22 ± 0.17 vs. 2.71 ± 0.20, t=40.139) of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the serum TNF-α (1.98 ± 0.07 μg/L vs. 2.86 ± 0.13 μg/L, t=42.144), IL-1β (9.20 ± 1.89 μg/L vs. 13.51 ± 2.36 μg/L, t=10.080) of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). There was no significantly differences of the adverse reaction rates of the two groups during treatment (χ2=0.211, P=0.646). Conclusions The Xihuang pills combined with sodium cantharidinate and vitamin B6 injection for patients with tumor-induced fever has a good efficacy and low incidence of adverse reactions, can improve the quality of life and reduce the serum levels of TNF-α and IL-1β.

Objective To investigate the value of dynamic contrast?enhanced MRI (DCE?MRI) in the differential diagnosis of glioblastoma and brain metastases. Methods Twenty patients with high grade gliomas and 20 cases patients with brain metastases proved by surgery and pathology were collected, and patients were examined with conventional MRI and DCE?MRI preoperatively. The ROIs were manually placed in solid parts of the tumors and their surrounding tissues to calculate Ktrans, Kep and Ve values. The Ktrans, Kep and Ve values differences for the solid part and surrounding tissues of the two brain tumors were compared by two independent sample t test. The correlation between Ktrans of the solid parts of the two brain tumors and Ktrans, Kep and Ve values of their surrounding tissues were studied by Pearson correlation analysis. Results The Ktrans, Kep and Ve values of glioblastoma were(0.258 ± 0.063)min-1,(0.398 ± 0.082)min-1, 0.632±0.084, the Ktrans, Kep and Ve values of brain metastases were(0.233±0.053)min-1,(0.357±0.042)min-1, 0.672±0.113. There were no significant differences between the glioblastoma and brain metastases for Ktrans, Kep and Ve values(t=-1.354,-1.982, 1.276, all P>0.05). The Ktrans, Kep and Ve values of surrounding tissues of glioblastoma were(0.093±0.032)min-1,(0.411±0.089)min-1, 0.107±0.021, the Ktrans, Kep and Ve values of surrounding tissues of brain metastases were(0.033±0.010)min-1,(0.204±0.045)min-1, 0.069±0.017. The Ktrans, Kep and Ve values of surrounding tissues between glioblastoma and brain metastases had significant difference (t=-7.978,-9.303,-6.203, all P<0.05). The Ktrans of glioblastoma were correlated with Ktrans, Kep and Ve values of their surrounding tissues (r=0.759, 0.464, 0.651, all P<0.05); The Ktrans values of brain metastases had no relationship with Ktrans, Kep and Ve values of their surrounding tissues (P>0.05). Conclusion The DCE?MRI can quantitatively display the microvascular permeability and accurately evaluate the damage of blood?brain barrier of glioblastoma and brain metastases, which has an important value in studying biological characteristics and differential diagnosis of the two brain tumors.

Objective To discuss influence and curative effect observation of sodium hyaluronate on serum matrix metalloproteinase-9,12 and 13 (MMP-9, 12 and 13) levels of patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods Selected 70 cases of patients with knee OA, and divided into observation group (n=35 cases) and control group (n=35 cases) in accordance at random. The patients in two groups were given oral 75 mg diclofenac sodium enteric capsules , once a day for 5 weeks. The patients in observation group were additionally given 2 mL sodium hyaluronate , injected into in-tra-articular, once a week, for 5 weeks. Excepted for sodium hyaluronate injection fluid, the patients in control group were given the same medical treatment as that in observation group. The changes of serum MMP-9 , 12 and 13 levels between the two groups before and after medical treatment were observed , and the clinical curative effect and untoward effect was compared as well. Results After 5 weeks’ treatment, the serum MMP-9, 12 and 13 levels of patients in two groups were declined more significantly than before with different degrees (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the declining rate of patients in observation group was much higher than that in control group (P<0.05). The clinical good and excellent rate with in observation group(85.71%) was much higher than that in control group (62.86%)(χ2=4.79,P<0.05). 9 and 11 cases of untoward effect were appeared between control group and observation group respectively with light symp-tom, and after comparing the occurrence rates of untoward effect of patients in two groups, with no statistical differ-ences (χ2=0.28,P>0.05). Conclusion Sodium hyaluronate has favorable curative effect on patients with knee OA, whose mechanism of action has close effect on reducing serum MMP-9 ,12 and 13 levels.

BACKGROUND:A large number of studies have confirmed that anterior approach and posterior approach for multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy were effective, but there is stil no conclusion in which one is better.
OBJECTIVE:To systematical y assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of anterior approach versus posterior approach for multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy.
METHODS:The databases such as The Cochrane Library (Issue 3, 2013), PubMed (from 1966 to March 2013), OVID (from 1950 to March 2013), EMbase (from 1966 to March 2013), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (from 1978 to March 2013), WanFang Database (from 1998 to March 2013), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (from 1999 to March 2013) were electronical y searched and five relevant journals were searched by hand to col ect the randomized control ed trials or non-randomized control ed trials about the clinical effectiveness and safety of anterior approach versus posterior approach for multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy. Two reviewers independently screened the literature according to the inclusive and exclusive criteria, extracted the data, and assessed the methodological quality of included studies. Then the meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan5.2 software.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 11 control ed trials involving 814 patients were included. Meta-analysis results showed that, compared with posterior approach, postoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores were better (P<0.000 01), improvement rate of neurological function was higher (P=0.000 3), the incidence of C5 root palsy was lower (P=0.007), but operation time was longer (P<0.000 01), amount of intraoperative bleedin g was larger (P=0.000 7), incidence of adjacent segments degeneration was higher (P=0.01), incidence of postoperative complications was higher (P<0.000 01) and the rate of secondary surgical procedures was higher (P=0.003) after anterior approach. Additional y, there were no differences between the two groups in the cervical range of motion (P=0.56). For quantity limitation and low methodological quality of included studies, this conclusion stil needs to be further proved by performing more high-quality and large-scale randomized control ed trials.
