ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the levels and clinical significance of serum adiponectin(ADPN),high sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)and cystatin C(CysC)in type 2 diabetic nephropathy.Methods 75 outpatients and the inpatients with type 2 dia-betes mellitus(T2DM)in our hospital from February 2013 to May 2013 were selected and divided into three groups according to the urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER),normal-albuminuria group(UAER300 mg/d,23 cases).30 subjects of healthy physical examination were selected as the control group.Urine microalbumin was measured by the immune turbidimetric method,UAER was calculated ac-cording to the 24 h urine volume,CysC and hs-CRP were measured by the immune turbidimetric method,and ADPN was measured by the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The ADPN,hs-CRP and CysC levels were compared among groups.Results The ADPN level in 3 type 2 diabetic nephropathy groups was lower than that in the control group,the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05 ).With increase of UAER,serum ADPN,hs-CRP and CysC levels in 3 type 2 diabetic nephropathy groups were increased,the difference among the groups was statistically significant (P <0.05 ).The levels of serum ADPN,hs-CRP and CysC in type 2 diabetic nephropathy were positively correlated with UAER(r=0.715 6,0.476 3,0.741 3,P <0.05).Conclusion The combined detection of serum ADPN,hs-CRP and CysC has important reference value for the diagnosis and disease course of early renal damage in T2DM.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the diagnostic value of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) detction in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) and Western blotting were applied to detecting the expression of sera ANCA, antinuclear antibody (ANA), anti-double-stranded DNA antibody, anti-SmithD1 antibody in 25 samples of control group and 106 samples of patients with SLE. Results ALL samples of control group showed negative; 47.2% (50/106) sera showed ANCA positive in patients with SLE,and all of them were peripheral nuclear pattern (pANCA). In ANCA positive group, the positive rate of ANA, anti-SmithD1 antibody and anti-ds-DNA antibody was respectively 100% (50/50), 82% (41/50) and 94% (47/50); in ANCA negative group, the positive rate was respectively 91.1% (51/56), 67.9% (38/56)and 50% (28/56). There were no statistical differences in positive rates of ANA and anti-SmithD1 antibody between ANCA positive and negative groups (both P＞0. 05), but there was in positive rates of anti-ds-DNA antibody (P＜0.01). ANCA positive rate was respectively 84.6% (44/52) and 11.1%(6/54) in active SLE group (n=52) and inactive SLE group (n=54) (P＜0.01). Conclusion The determined ANCA in patients with SLE is not correlative with ANA and anti-SmithD1 antibody, but positively relates to anti-double-stranded DNA antibody. The positive rate of ANCA in patients with active lupus is significantly higher than that in non-active lupus.
