Extraction of Serum Proteins Adsorbed on the Surface of Dialysis Membranes

Abstract: Extraction of adsorbed proteins from dialysis membranes that had been used during actual hemodialysis procedures was performed. The condition of extraction with SDS plus 2–mercaptoethanol at 95°C is more efficient than with only PBS or with SDS solution without 2–mercaptoethanol at 37°C.     

Severe Electrolyte Disturbances in Lethal Subclavian Catheter Dialysis

Abstract: Syncope, irreversible shock, and respiratory and circulatory arrest developed in a 54-year-old diabetic man chronically dialyzed with a subclavian catheter (SC) minutes after the end of a dialysis session. Resuscitation attempts remained unsuccessful. During the resuscitation attempt, a blood analysis showed severe hyponatremia, acidosis, and hypochloremia. Respiratory and cardiac arrest developed during dialysis in a 64-year-old woman on chronic SC dialysis. Resuscitation was unsuccessful; chloremia levels were 79 mEq/L, and calcemia levels were 20 mg%. Both patients were dialyzed with a standard dialysate solution. The reasons for the electrolyte disturbances could not be explained technically. The autopsy showed myocardial perforation by the SC and accumulation in the pericardium of the fluids administered during the resuscitation attempt (e.g., glucose 5%, bicarbonate, Ca gluconate, human albumines), thus explaining the erroneous electrolyte results. The reason for the perforation was a too-rigid central femoral vein catheter, erroneously labeled a subclavian catheter by the supplying firm. Because of a syndrome of progressive vena subcla-via and vena cava sclerosis with insufficient arterial phase flow and venous-phase bleeding around the puncture site during single-needle dialysis, the original SC had to be replaced by a longer one with the tip located in the atrium (this SC was actually a femoral catheter). Analysis of the fluid aspirated through the SC can determine the diagnosis in sudden death of SC dialysis patients.     

Hepatocyte isolation from pig livers after warm ischaemic injury

Abstract Hepatocyte cultures have been used extensively for a wide variety of physiological, pharmacological and experimental studies. The warm ischaemic period before isolation is kept to a minimum to achieve a high yield of cells isolated and a good viability for culture. We have recently introduced a new concept of liver resuscitation after warm ischaemia that is based on a 3-h reperfusion period with an improved perfusate and simultaneous dialysis. In this study, we applied the new technique for hepatocyte isolation from livers subjected to 80 min of complete ischaemia at 37 °C. Cell yield was improved by a resuscitating perfusion from 58% to 73% and viability from 39% to 76%.     

Strecker stent in stenotic hemodialysis Brescia-Cimino arteriovenous fistulas

Flexible tantalum stents (Strecker) were used as an adjunct to percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in the treatment of stenotic arterial or venous limbs of Brescia-Cimino hemodialysis fistulas. The diagnostic procedure was performed using retrograde fistulography. After PTA with unsatisfactory results, stents were placed in 5 patients with significant residual stenoses and poor fistula function. Within the mean follow-up period of 6.4 months (range 3–10 months) all fistulas were functioning. We conclude that Strecker stent is useful in the treatment of stenotic hemodialysis arteriovenous fistulas as an adjunct to PTA.     

Phosphate end dialysis value : a misleading parameter of hemodialysis efficiency

Despite low end dialysis serum phosphate levels (P_e) the control of phosphate retention remains often unsatisfactory in dialyzed patients. In order to assess the value of P_e in dialyzed children as an indicator of dialytic phosphate removal, we studied serum phosphate kinetics over the period of dialysis and post dialysis and compared these with urea kinetics. A multicenter study was conducted in the 21 French pediatric hemodialysis units and included 144 children under 15 years of age. Blood urea and phosphate concentrations were measured at the beginning, at 45 min later, at the end of dialysis, and 30 min post dialysis. At 60 min and at 360 min post dialysis measurements were made only for a subgroup of 12 children. From the serum levels, reduction ratios for urea (URR) and phosphate (PRR) and post dialysis rebound for urea (PDUR) and phosphate (PDPR) were calculated. URR (over the dialysis session, 72%±9%) was higher than PRR (47%±12%). Moreover, urea removal continued throughout the dialysis period, while most of the reduction in phosphate occurred in the initial dialysis period. Post dialysis urea rebound was limited to the 60th min post dialysis, whereas post dialysis phosphate rebound occurred until the 360th min post dialysis; by this time the serum phosphate levels had almost reached the predialysis levels. In summary, serum phosphate kinetics over dialysis and post dialysis periods in children appear to be misleading for the quantification of phosphate removal, i. e., phosphate clearance is a poor indicator of dialytic phosphate removal.

Effects of fluid flow on elution of hydrophilic modifier from dialysis membrane surfaces

When uremic blood flows through dialyzers during hemodialysis, dialysis membrane surfaces are exposed to shear stress and internal filtration, which may affect the surface characteristics of the dialysis membranes. In the present study, we evaluated changes in the characteristics of membrane surfaces caused by shear stress and internal filtration using blood substitutes: water purified by reverse osmosis and 6.7 wt% dextran70 solution. We focused on the levels of a hydrophilic modifier, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), on the membrane surface measured by attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Experiments involving 4 h dialysis, 0-144 h shear-stress loading, and 4 h dead-end filtration were performed using polyester-polymer alloy (PEPA) and polysulfone (PS) membranes. After the dialysis experiments with accompanying internal filtration, average PVP retention on the PEPA membrane surface was 93.7% in all areas, whereas that on the PS membrane surface was 98.9% in all areas. After the shear-stress loading experiments, PVP retention on the PEPA membrane surface decreased as shear-stress loading time and the magnitude of shear stress increased. However, with the PS membrane, PVP retention scarcely changed. After the dead-end filtration experiments, PVP retention decreased in all areas for both PEPA and PS membranes, but PVP retention on the PEPA membrane surface was lower than that on the PS membrane surface. PVP on the PEPA membrane surface was eluted by both shear stress and internal filtration, while that on the PS membrane surface was eluted only by internal filtration.     

七种中药小分子物质对淋巴细胞杀伤活性的影响

用透析的方法从枸杞、槐籽、五谷虫（家蝇幼虫）、三七、小牛胸腺、白芍、茯苓，七种中药中获得小分子物质（分子量小于１２０００），系统地研究这些中药提取物对小鼠脾细胞杀伤活性的影响。结果发现枸杞、槐籽、五谷虫的透析外液不同程度地增强小鼠脾细胞杀伤活性。枸杞外液能抑制小鼠体内Ｓ１８０的生长；手术后乳腺癌病人使用枸杞小分子注射液，其外周血淋巴细胞的杀伤活性明显高于对照组。研究表明枸杞小分子成分经加热处理后，其有效性消失。     

The Current Status and Future of the Artificial Kidney

The use of the artificial kidney can presently be extended to almost all patients with end-stage renal failure. To reduce the cost of treatment, technological choices have to be made. These are always a compromise between cost and adequacy. The liberty obtained by technical improvements to perform a dialysis "à la carte," depending on patient and doctor wishes, is one of the main characteristics of the present status of hemodialysis.     

白细胞进入腹腔是引起蛋白质经腹腔丢失的关键

目的为了研究细菌性腹膜炎时经腹腔蛋白质丢失的机制,阐明白细胞移行与蛋白质丢失的关系。方法给兔腹腔内注射大肠杆菌(E.coil)4×106CFU+生理盐水(35ml/kg),做成急性腹膜炎动物模型。通过测定实验6或8h期间腹透液中白细胞总数(WBC)及中性粒细胞(PMNs)计数情况以及腹膜对蛋白质的通透性(蛋白质D/P比值)。设立了两个系列的实验系列一,应用氮介(mustine),1.2mg/kg,实验前3天静脉注射,以耗尽循环血中的白细胞;系列二,用单克隆抗体(mAb)60.32mg/kg,实验前5min静脉注射,以阻滞PMNs上的粘附分子CD18,从而抑制PMNs向腹腔移行。同时设立了阳性对照组(即腹膜炎组)及阴性对照组(无腹膜炎组)。结果系列一中mustine降低87%循环血中白细胞及93%循环血中PMNs,此时即使腹腔内注射细菌,白细胞向腹腔的移行及腹腔蛋白质的渗出均较未注射mustine的腹膜炎组明显降低,而与无腹膜炎的正常对照组结果相似。系列二,静脉注射mAb60.3同样也明显降低白细胞及PMNs向腹腔的移行及经腹腔蛋白质的丢失。结论急性细菌性腹膜炎时白细胞向腹腔移行导致了经腹腔蛋白质的丢失。
