Metabolic disorders are observed in women after menopause, and the postmenopausal women suffering from chronic liver diseases have an increased risk of progression to liver fibrosis, with a higher risk than male patients of the same age, which may be associated with the decline of ovarian function and the reduction of estrogen level after menopause. This article summarizes the research advances in the molecular mechanism of progression to liver fibrosis from the aspects of estrogen and oxidative stress, activation of hepatic stellate cells, accumulation of extracellular matrix, and immune regulation. It is pointed out supplementation with an appropriate amount of estrogen in the perimenopausal period and the early menopausal period can reduce the risk of liver fibrosis and delay or even reverse the process of liver fibrosis, thereby improving quality of life and prolonging survival time in elderly female patients.

Objective:To investigate the effect of Zhitong-Rusheng Decoction on wound healing and serum fibronectin (FN) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) levels after anal fistula operation. Methods:A total of 102 patients after anal fistula operation in our hospital from March 2018 to March 2020 were randomly divided into control group (51 cases) and observation group (51 cases) according to the random number table method. The control group was treated with conventional western treatment, while the observation group was treated with Zhitong-Rusheng Decoction on the basis of control group. The two groups were treated for 3 weeks. The clinical symptoms were scored before and after treatment, and the levels of serum FN and EGF were detected by ELISA. The wound healing time, hematochezia disappearance time, wound longitudinal diameter and wound area before and after treatment were observed. The clinical efficacy was evaluated after treatment. Results:The total effective rate was 98.0% (50/51) in the observation group and 72.6% (37/51) in the control group, with significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=13.209, P<0.01). After treatment, the pain degree score, wound exudation score and granulation morphology score of the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=15.448, 21.424, 28.641, P<0.001). After treatment, the wound healing time [(6. 04 ± 1.20) d vs. (9.42 ± 1.58) d, t=12.166] and the disappearance time of hematochezia [(15.72 ± 2.86) d vs. (19.95 ± 4.33) d, t=6.862] of the observation group were significantly shorter than thosse of the control group( P<0.01). After treatment, the wound longitudinal diameter [(1.89 ± 0.31) cm vs. (2.82 ± 0.54) cm, t=10.666] and wound area [(3.26 ± 0.54) cm 2vs. (4.98 ± 1.10) cm 2, t=10. 024] of the observation group were significantly less than those in the control group ( P<0.01). The serum FN [(2.92 ± 0.50) mg/L vs. (2.45 ± 0.39) mg/L, t=5.293], EGF [(7.03 ± 1.44) μg/L vs. (5.47 ± 1.03) μg/L, t=6.293] of the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Zhitong-Rusheng Decoction on the basis of conventional treatment on patients after anal fistula operation has a good efficacy, which is conducive to wound healing, reducing clinical symptoms, and improving serum levels of FN and EGF.

Objective To explore the effects of residual renal function (RRF) on quality of life (QOL) in patients with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD),and analyze the factors influencing QOL.Methods One hundred and eighteen patients treated with CAPD for at least 3 months in No.455 Hospital of People's Liberation Army were enrolled.All patients were divided into two groups according to residual glomerular filtration rate (rGFR):the group with RRF [rGFR≥ 1 ml·min-1 · (1.73 m2)-1],and the group without RRF [rGFR ＜ 1ml · min-1 · (1.73 m2)-1].The demographic characteristics,laboratory data,cardiothoracic ratio,dialysis adequacy parameters,rGFR,blood pressure,urine volume,ultrafiltration volume and dialysis prescription were investigated.Patient's QOL was evaluated by Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36).Results There was no significant differences between the groups with and without RRF in the age,gender,causes of disease,complication,body mass index (BMI),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),haemoglobin (Hb),cholesterol,triglyceride,high-density lipoprotein,low-density lipoprotein,normalized protein catabolic rate (nPCR) and cardiothoracic ratio (all P ＞ 0.05).Compared with the patients with RRF,PD duration,ultrafiltration volume,serum creatinine (Scr),calcium,phosphorus,C-reactive protein (CRP),parathyroid hormone (PTH) and peritoneal dialysis dose in the patients without RRF were significantly higher,and urine volume,serum albumin (Alb),potassium,and urea total Kt/V were significantly lower (all P ＜ 0.05).The patients without RRF had a significantly lower score in physical function and physical component summary as compared to the patients with RRF (all P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant differences in role physical,bodily pain,general health,vitality,social function,role emotional,mental health,mental component summary and SF-36 scores (all P ＞ 0.05).Simple linear regression showed that there was no correlation between rGFR and SF-36 scores (β=1.330,P=0.070).Multiple linear regression revealed that SF-36 scores were correlated with CRP (β=-0.477,P ＜ 0.001),Scr (β=0.020,P ＜ 0.001),cardiothoracic ratio (β=-57.823,P=0.004),Alb (β=0.772,P=0.016) and ultrafiltration volume (β=-0.006,P=0.031),but not correlated with rGFR (β=0.099,P=0.302).Conclusions PD patients without and with RRF perceived different scores in physical health,but their scores were similar in mental health and QOL.RRF was no related to QOL in PD patients.Chronic inflammation,fluid overload and malnutrition were the main factors that affect QOL.
摘要
BACKGROUND:The validity of stem celltransplantation for acute kidney injury has been verified by many studies. However, the mechanism of repair of tubular epithelial cellinjury remains unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate protective effects and mechanisms of adipose-derived stem cells cultured with astragaloside on the apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells induced by cisplatin. METHODS:There were four groups. Renal tubular epithelial cells were induced by 2.5μmol/L cisplatin for 24 hours. Models of renal tubular cellinjury were established in the cisplatin group. Adipose-derived stem cells were cocultured with renal tubular epithelial cells of injured kidney in the adipose-derived stem cells+renal tubular epithelial cells group. Using Transwel chamber, adipose-derived stem cells were incubated with 20 mg/L astragaloside for 48 hours, and then cocultured with renal tubular epithelial cells in the astragaloside-incubated adipose-derived stem cells+renal tubular epithelial cells group. Normal renal tubular epithelial cells served as controls (normal control group). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with renal tubular epithelial cellinjury group, AV/PI and TUNEL results demonstrated that the apoptotic rate and number of renal tubular epithelial cells were apparently reduced in the adipose-derived stem cells+renal tubular epithelial cells group and 20 mg/L astragaloside-incubated adipose-derived stem cells+renal tubular epithelial cells group. ELISA results displayed that insulin-like growth factor-1 levels were significantly elevated in the 20 mg/L astragaloside-incubated adipose-derived stem cells+renal tubular epithelial cells group (P<0.05). Western blot assay results exhibited that caspase-3 protein levels were noticeably diminished, but Bcl-2 expression was significantly increased in the 20 mg/L astragaloside-incubated adipose-derived stem cells+renal tubular epithelial cells group (P<0.05). Results suggested that astragaloside-incubated human adipose-derived stem cells suppressed the apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells induced by cisplatin, which contributes to the early recovery of injured renal tubule. Its protective mechanism was probably associated with the secretion of insulin-like growth factor-1, inhibition of caspase-3 expression and upregulation of Bcl-2 levels.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of berberine on diabetes or insulin resistance accompanied with reduction of skeletal moscle and wasting in db/db mice.Methods db/db mouse-a model of diabetes/insulin-resistance was studied,with the wild type mouse as control.After being treated with berberine ( 5 mg · kg-1 · d-1 ) for 3 weeks,the muscle size of tibia anterior (TA) of the animals was measured after staining with laminine/Hyosin Heavy chain-Slow using immunochemistry,then observed under fluorescent microscope and calculated with software.The rate of [ 14 C ] -Phenalanine incorporation into the uuscle was measured to analyze the protein synthesis,and the [ 3 H ] -Tyrosine released into the medium was determined in order to analyze protein degradation.The mRNA expressions of muscle atrophy Fbox-1 ( Atrogin-1 ) and muscle ring finger-1 ( MuRF-1 ) were measured by Northern blot.Results With berberine treatment,blood glucose and fat levels were lowered [ ( 18.55 ± 3.79 vs 26.32 ± 4.02 ) mmol/L,P＜0.01 ; ( 2.75 ± 0.30 vs 3.77 ± 0.52 ) g,P＜0.05 ],but tibia anterior muscle weight/length ratio and cross-section area were decreased,rates of protein synthesis in isolated muscles of db/db mice were decreased by 18％ -22％,and the rates of degradation were significantly raised by 24％ -26％ after berberine treatment.There also was increased the transcription and translation of Atrogin-1 and MuRF-1,accompanied with decreased eukaryotic initiation factor 3 subunit (eIF3-f)protein level simultaneously. ConclusionBerberine improves hyperglycemia and insulin resistance by down-regulating blood sugar and body fat,but it causes reduced protein synthesis and minimally enhanced protein degradation.The mechanism might be related to berberine-induced up-regulating Atrogin-1 、MurF-1 and down-regulating eIF3-f.

Objective To study the prevalence,treatment policy and control of hypertension in patients with maintenance hemodialysis, and to analyze the influencing factors of hypertension control.Methods We studied the current status of 1382 patients with maintenance hemodialysis in 11 dialysis centers in Shanghai, among them 809 were male, and 573 were female.Hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure(SBP) ≥ 140 and/or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥90 mm Hg ( 1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa).Those who had a history of hypertension and requiring antihypertensive therapy were also diagnosed as hypertension though their blood pressure was within normal range during the survey.Hypertension control was defined as blood pressure ＜ 140/90 mm Hg before each dialysis session.Results The prevalence of hypertension in the hemodialysis patients was 86.3%.The treatment rate and control rate in those patients were 96.8% and 25.5% respectively.More than half (50.4% ) of patients were treated with only one kind of anti-hypertensive drug, and 34.4% with 2 kinds, 14.2% with 3 kinds, 1.0% with 4 kinds or more.Calcium channel blocker (CCB) was the most frequently prescribed drug (61.0%), followed by angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blockers ( 56.4% ), centrally acting anti-hypertensive agent ( 26.4% ), beta blockers and alpha, beta-blockers( 14.0% ).The control rate of hypertension in those hemodialysis people was aggravated by the existence of coronary artery disease.The patients who need more kinds of antihypertensive agents have a poorer control rate of hypertension.The hypertension control rate elevated significantly with the adequate hemodialysis.Conclusions There is a very high prevalence of hypertension in maintenance hemodialysis patients.Although the treatment rate is high, the control rate is unsatisfactory.So the control of hypertension in hemodialysis patient is still a clinical challenge.Appropriate dialysis adequacy, reasonable use of erythropoietin, treatment of heart disease and judicious use of antihypertensive drugs may be helpful to improve the clinical outcome.
摘要
BACKGROUND:The rapidly developed transplantation of peripheral blood stem cells have been successfully used to substitute bone marrow transplantation and become the first choice method for transplantation of hemopoietic stem cells.It is relatively difficult to collect peripheral blood stem cells from young age and low body mass infants.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the safety and adverse effects of peripheral blood stem cell collection from young age and low body mass through the use of blood cell separator.METHODS:Two type 1 diabetes mellitus infants,aged younger than 2 years old and with body mass less than 15 kg,were treated using autologous hemopoietic stem cell transplantation.The two infants were adequately comforted to lesion the fear of collection.At 1 week prior to collection,calcium agent was orally taken to reduce the incidences of low calcium.Within 24 hours prior to collection,oily food was forbidden,and on the day of collection,milk was forbidden,to avoid chylemia,which influences blood collection.Prior to collection,200 mL 25 Gy y-ray radiated red blood cells suspension was injected into the tube,which was routinely placed in the subclavian vein,to avoid hypovolaemic syndrome and the effects on hematocrit.Individualized collection parameters were set,During collection,blood circulation volume was 3,4 times of systemic blood circulation to ensure sufficient total circulation volume.During isolation,the ratio of ACD to whole blood was kept between 1:11 and 1:13 to prevent sodium citrate poisoning.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Peripheral blood stem cells were successfully collected during first intention in each infant.During collection,stable vital signs but no adverse effects were observed.After collection,mononuclear cells weighted 14.71×108/kg and 18.82×108/kg respectively,and CD34+ cells were about 34.13×108/kg and 32.38×106/kg,respectively in each infant.Therefore,it is feasible to collect peripheral blood stem cells from infants of young age and low body mass under sufficient psychological preparation.
摘要
Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have potentials of proliferation, multilineage differentiation and homing to injured tissue and organs. Therefore, many researchers consider them as seed cells and attempt to use them to repair injured tissues and organs. In the allo- even xero-transplantation of these seed cells, graft rejection is an important problem. A large amount of data show that MSCs have specific immune characteristics; they block dendritic cell maturation, decrease immune response of T cells, do not express class Ⅱ major histocompatibility complex molecules, and mediate immunosuppression by secreting some dissoluble factors. The specific low immunogenicity of MSCs could avoid rejection in xero-trensplantation for human and animals in vivo, showing advantages in treatment. Therefore, they are promising to be used as seed cells for kidney construction.

Objective To observe the effect of different calcium concentration peritoneal dialysate on calcium-phosphorus metabohsm in uremia patients under peritoneal dialysis. Methods Forty uremia patients who the first entered peritoneal dialysis were divided into two groups: standard calcium concentration group (20 cases), low calcium concentration group (20 cases). Treated with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), combining with oral calcium carbonate, observing 12 months. Results When the first entering CAPD, serum calcium, phosphorus, calcium-phosphorus product, immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH) of the two groups had no differences. Hyperphosphatemia, lower iPTH were universal. After 6 months' treatment, hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia in standard calcium concentration group got increasingly serious.While in low calcium concentration group, serum calcium, phosphorus, calcium-phosphorus product all decreased significantly, moreover, they were also lower than post-treatment standard calcium concentration group(P<0.01). In the following 6 months, in low calcium concentration group,serum calcium, calcium-phosphorus product maintained at the normal level serum phosphorus also decreased to the normal level iPTH maintained about 150 ng/L. During the treatment, all patients had no hypotension and hyperspasmia. Conclusion Low calcium concentration peritoneal dialysate can ameliorate disorder of calcium-phosphorus metabohsm, delay the appearance of its comphcations.
