ABSTRACT
Objective: To explore the influence of tanshinone 11 A on the expressions of molecular chape rone Cosmc. advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) in the kidney tissue of the allergic purpura nephritis mice and the levels of extracellular signal-regulated kinase/mitogen activated protein kinase (ERK/MAPK) signaling pathway proteins, and to clarify mechanism of tanshinone 11 A in the treatment of allergic purpura nephritis. Methods: A total of 38 mice were divided into control group∗ model group (allergic purpura nephritis model) and tanshinone 11 A group (allergic purpura nephritis model • tanshinone 11 A treatment), with 12 in each group; the other 2 mice were used to verify the success of modeling. The urine red blood cell counts and urine protein levels of the mice in various groups were measured, and the pathomorphology of kidney tissue of the mice in various groups were observed by periodate schiff-reaction (PAS) staining. The AOPP protein levels in the kidney tissue of the mice were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the ERK and phosphorylated ERK (p-ERk) protein expression levels were determined by Western blotting method. The expression levels of ERK. p-ERK and Cosmc mRNA in kidney tissue of the mice were determined by RT-PCR. Results: In control group, there was no hyperplasia of glomerular basement membrane and no glomerular sclerosis; in model group, the proliferation of glomerular basement membrane was obvious∗ the inflammatory cells were infiltrated, and glomerular sclerosis appeared; in tanshinone 11 A group, glomerular basement membrane hyperplasia and inflammatory infiltration were not obvious in the mice, there was only small amount of infiltrated inflammatory cells. Compared with control group, the urine red blood cell count, the 24 h urine protein level, the p ERK mRNA and AOPP protein levels of the mice in model group and tanshinone 11 A group were increased ( P<0. 05 or P<0. 01); the Cosmc mRNA expression levels were decreased (P<0. 01). Compared with model group, the urine red blood cell count. 24 h urine protein level, the p-ERK and AOPP protein levels in the kidney tissue of the mice in tanshinone 11 A group were decreased (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). and the Cosmc mRNA expression level was increased (P
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and leukotriene B4 (LTB4) in the early diagnosis of allergic purpura(HSP) in children and its effect on prognosis.Methods A total of 68 children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura enrolled in our hospital from May 2014 to May 2016 were selected.The levels of IL-6 and LTB4 in the early stage and early recovery stage of children were detected.The significance of early diagnosis and the impact on prognosis were analyzed.Results Compared with the control group,the levels of IL-6 and LTB4 in acute and early recovery stage of children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura were significantly higher(P＜0.05),and those in the acute stage of children were higher than those in the early recovery stage(P＜0.05).The higher the level of IL-6 and LTB4 in the serum,the greater the possibility of renal damage in patients,and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).The higher the level of serum IL-6 and LTB4,the higher the cure rate(P＜0.05) and the lower the recurrence rate(P＜0.05).The AUC of the combined detection of HSP was 0.894 and the sensitivity was 0.811,which were better than those of IL-6 and LTB4(P＜0.05).Conclusion Combined detection of IL-6 and LTB4 is of great clinical significance in the early diagnosis and prognosis of HSP.

ABSTRACT
[Abstract] Objective To evaluate the clinical and endoscopic manifestations of abdominal type allergic purpura in adult patients as the evidences in reaching early diagnosis. Methods The clinical and endoscopic manifestations of 32 patients with abdominal type allergic purpura were analyzed retrospectively. Re-SllltS All the patients complained of paroxysmal abdominal colic, 59. 4% patients complained of nausea and vomiting, 50% patients had hematochezia and haematemesis, the occult blood test was positive in all patients, and 25% patients had elevated level of amylase in the blood and urine. Purpura was found in 2-10 days after the presentation of abdominal pain. Endoscopy found hyperaemia, edema, bleeding spots, erosion and ulcer in gastroenterologic mucosa. Duodenal, ileum and caecum had more severe mucous lesions, but the esophageal mucosas in all patients were normal. The clinic and endoscopic misdiagnosis rates were 87.5% and 85.7% respectively. Glucocorticoids were the especially effective medicine in its treatment, while those agents for relieving spasm or antacids were ineffective. Conclusion Many scattered bleeding spots and snow flower-like ulcers on the gastrointestinal mucosa are the most important findings in adult abdominal type allergic purpura patients. Clinic manifestations of these patients are very severe abdominal colic in indefinite sites and merely with mild abdominal objective signs is the important characteristic feature.
ABSTRACT
This is a clinical study on 72 cases of purpura hospitalized at Han Il Hospital during the period from Jan., 1970 to Dec, 1979. The authors obtained the following results : 1) Allergic purpura (25 cases, 34.7%) was the most common disease, followed by I.T.P. (20 cases, 27.8%), Ieukemia (10 cases, 13.9%), meningoccemia (7 cases, 9.7%), and aplastic anemia (5 cases, 6.9%) in order of frequency. 2) The most prevalent age group was 6 to 9 one (45 cases), and sex ratio of male to female revealed 1.67 : 1(45:27). 3) The main clinical features in thrombocytopenic purpura were anemia abdominal pain fever and epistaxis ; while those in non-thrombocytopenic purpura were abdominal pain fever melena hematuria and headache. 4) The hemoglobin level was below 7 gm.% in leukemia and aplastic anemia, but normal or slightly decreased in allergic purpura and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. The W.B.C. count was markedly increased in the most cases of sepsis and leukemia, decreased in aplstic anemia, and within normal range in allergic purpura. The platelet count was below 10,000/mm2 in 97% cases of the thrombocytopenic purpura, while within normal range in non-thrombocytopenic purpura. 5) The bleeding time and the clotting time were within normal ranges in most of all cases. The Rumpel-Leede test revealed positive result in 85% cases of I.T.P., while in only 20% of allergic purpura.
