Objective:To investigate the correlation between serum Vitamin D, uric acid levels and arterial calcification in maintenance hemodialysis patients.Methods:A total of 120 patients who received MHD treatment in Daxing Teaching Hospital, Capital Medical University, from March 2019 to March 2021 were retrospectively selected as research subjects, and their general clinical data were recorded in detail. X-ray was used to detect the arterial calcification of patients. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of arterial calcification in MHD patients.Results:According to the arterial calcification score, 120 MHD patients were divided into non-calcification group (43 cases, 35.83%), mild calcification group (16 cases, 13.33%), moderate calcification group (42 cases, 35.00%) and severe calcification group (19 cases, 15.83%). There were significant differences in dialysis years, serum Vitamin D, serum uric acid, serum calcium, serum phosphorus, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and arterial calcification score among the four groups ( P<0.05). According to serum Vitamin D level, 120 MHD patients were divided into deficient serum Vitamin D group (84 cases, 70.00%) and normal serum Vitamin D group (36 cases, 30.00%), serum calcium and phosphorus levels in the deficient serum Vitamin D group were lower than those in the normal serum Vitamin D group: (2.53 ± 0.28) mmol/L vs. (3.15 ± 0.31) mmol/L, (1.83 ± 0.26) mmol/L vs.(2.07 ± 0.31) mmol/L; serum uric acid and arterial calcification scores in the deficient serum Vitamin D group were higher than those in the normal serum Vitamin D group: (512.41 ± 65.21) μmol/L vs.(311.94 ± 72.56) μmol/L, (6.92 ± 2.34) scores vs. (2.18 ± 2.01) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). One hundred and twenty MHD patients were divided into hyperuricemia group (77 cases, 64.17%) and uric acid normal group (43 cases, 35.83%) according to the level of serum uric acid, the serum Vitamin D level in the hyperuricemia group was lower than that in uric acid the normal group: (12.28 ± 5.18) μg/L vs. (28.84 ± 4.69) μg/L; and iPTH level and arterial calcification scores were higher than those in the uric acid normal group: (372.45 ± 90.31) ng/L vs. (291.60 ± 98.52) ng/L, (6.22 ± 2.52) scores vs. (2.72 ± 2.63) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The results of multivariate Logistic regression showed that serum Vitamin D and uric acid levels were risk factors for arterial calcification in MHD patients ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Serum Vitamin D and uric acid levels are correlated with arterial calcification in MHD patients, and are the risk factors leading to arterial calcification in patients.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of post-dialysis hypertension in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional and retrospective study. The patients receiving hemodialysis from January 9, 2017 to January 14, 2017 in 5 hemodialysis centers of Beijing area were selected. Post-dialysis hypertension was defined as an event characterized by an average increase of more than 15 mmHg in post-dialysis mean artery pressure (MAP) compared to intradialytic 3 h MAP during 3 consecutive hemodialysis sessions. Post-dialysis stable blood pressure was defined as an event characterized by an increase of less than 15 mmHg or a decrease of less than 10 mmHg in post-dialysis MAP compared to intradialytic 3 h MAP, with the exception of patients with post-dialysis hypertension and post-dialysis hypotension. The patients were divided into hypertension group and stable blood pressure group based on whether they had post-dialysis hypertension, and the differences of clinical data between the two groups were compared. The influencing factors of post-dialysis hypertension were analyzed by multivariate unconditional logistic regression.Results:A total of 491 MHD patients were enrolled in this study, including 65 patients (13.2%) in the hypertension group, 406 patients (82.7%) in the stable blood pressure group and 20 patients (4.1%) in the hypotension group. The age, blood calcium before dialysis and the proportion of patients using 1.75 mmol/L Ca 2+ dialysate in the hypertension group were higher than those of the stable blood pressure group, and pre-dialysis serum intact parathyroid hormone and pre-dialysis serum uric acid in the post hypertension group were lower than those of the stable blood pressure group (all P<0.05). The age, pre-dialysis serum intact parathyroid hormone, pre-dialysis serum calcium, pre-dialysis serum uric acid, dialysate Ca 2+ concentration of statistical differences between hypertension group and stable blood pressure group ( P<0.05), and post-dialysis serum calcium, pre-dialysis total serum cholesterol, application of β receptor blocker, gender of univariate analysis ( P<0.1) were included into the logistic regression equation as covariates. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that using 1.75 mmol/L Ca 2+ dialysate was the independent influencing factor of post-dialysis hypertension (with using 1.50 mmol/L Ca 2+ dialysate as reference, OR=2.930, 95% CI 1.282-6.694, P=0.011). The age and pre-dialysis serum calcium of statistical differences between hypertension group and stable blood pressure group ( P<0.05), and pre-dialysis serum sodium and pre-dialysis serum uric acid of univariate analysis ( P<0.1) were included into the logistic regression equation as covariates. The older age ( OR=1.046, 95% CI 1.000-1.093, P=0.049) and higher pre-dialysis serum calcium ( OR=21.847, 95% CI 2.111-226.075, P=0.010) were the independent influencing factors of post-dialysis hypertension when the 1.50 mmol/L Ca 2+ dialysate was used. Conclusions:The independent influencing factor of post-dialysis hypertension is using 1.75 mmol/L Ca 2+ dialysate, while the independent influencing factors of post-dialysis hypertension are the older age and the higher pre-dialysis serum calcium level when the dialysate Ca 2+ concentration was 1.50 mmol/L.

Objective To investigate the presences of regulatory T cells (Treg) and natural killer T cell (NKT)-like T cells in the peripheral blood of healthy subjects and patients with newly diagnosed cancer. Methods Patients were enrolled into four groups: healthy subjects (Group A), patients without cancer (Group B), patients with newly diagnosed stage Ⅰ~Ⅱ cancer (Group C), and patients with newly diagnosed stage Ⅲ~Ⅳ cancer (Group D). Flow cytometry was performed to detect the percentage of CD4+ CD25high CD127low cells in CD4+ T lymphocytes (Treg) and the percentage of CD3+ CD56+ cells in CD3+ T lymphocytes (NKT-like). Results The percentage of Treg cells in CD4+T lymphocytes was(6.72 ± 3.16)%, (6.49 ± 2.83)%,(6.80 ± 3.07)%and (7.63 3.47)% in Group A, B, C and D, respectively, with no significant differences among these groups (P>0.05). However, the percentage of CD3+CD56+T cells in CD3+T lymphocytes was (3.13 ± 1.66)%, (2.56 ± 1.27)%,(7.22 ± 2.70)% and (7.72 ± 3.10)% in Group A, B, C and D, respectively, with marked increases in Group C and D compared to those in Group A and B (P < 0.05). Conclusion Patients with newly diagnosed cancer demonstrated increasing trends in the percentage of peripheral NKT-like cells.

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Based on the excellent medical care and management system for Chinese veterans, as well as the detailed medical documentation available, we aim to construct a Chinese Veteran Clinical Research (CVCR) platform on non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and carry out studies of the primary disabling NCDs.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The Geriatric Neurology Department of Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital and veterans' hospitals serve as the leading and participating units in the platform construction. The fundamental constituents of the platform are veteran communities. Stratified typical cluster sampling is adopted to recruit veteran communities. A cross-sectional study of mental, neurological, and substance use (MNS) disorders are performed in two stages using screening scale such as the Mini-Mental State Examination and Montreal cognitive assessment, followed by systematic neuropsychological assessments to make clinical diagnoses, evaluated disease awareness and care situation.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>A total of 9 676 among 277 veteran communities from 18 cities are recruited into this platform, yielding a response rate of 83.86%. 8 812 subjects complete the MNS subproject screening and total response rate is 91.70%. The average participant age is (82.01±4.61) years, 69.47% of veterans are 80 years or older. Most participants are male (94.01%), 83.36% of subjects have at least a junior high school degree. The overall health status of veterans is good and stable. The most common NCD are cardiovascular disorders (86.44%), urinary and genital diseases (73.14%), eye and ear problems (66.25%), endocrine (56.56%) and neuro-psychiatric disturbances (50.78%).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>We first construct a veterans' comprehensive clinical research platform for the study of NCDs that is primarily composed of highly educated Chinese males of advanced age and utilize this platform to complete a cross-sectional national investigation of MNS disorders among veterans. The good and stable health condition of the veterans could facilitate the long-term follow-up studies of NCDs and provide prospective data to the prevention and management of NCDs.</p>
