激素间歇冲击及小剂量维持治疗IgA肾病的随机对照研究

目的:探讨激素间歇冲击及小剂量维持与血管紧张素转换酶抑制剂治疗中度蛋白尿IgA肾病的疗效及其影响因素。方法:47例IgA肾病患者随机分为实验组和对照组。对照组(21例)给予ACEI药物治疗,实验组(26例)在此基础上口服泼尼松0.5mg/kg,隔日给药,治疗12个月,并在治疗的第1、3、5个月初分别给予甲基泼尼松龙0.5g/d,冲击3d。对肾脏病理改变进行WHO分级并对各种病变进行半定量分析。结果:两组间在性别、年龄、临床及病理资料间无统计学差异。平均随访14个月后,实验组尿蛋白完全缓解8例(30.8%),部分缓解14例(53.8%),无缓解4例(15.4%);而对照组分别为4例(19.1%),3例(23.8%),12例(57.1%),有统计学差异(P<0.01)。治疗前后,实验组血肌酐分别为(89.9±30.3)μmol/L及(88.2±32.8)μmol/L;对照组分别为(89.5±37.9)μmol/L及(104.0±49.7)μmol/L,但两者比较均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。多因素分析显示疗效与肾小球硬化率及肾小管间质病变呈负相关。结论:激素间歇冲击及小剂量维持治疗能显著减少蛋白尿,维持肾功能稳定。影响疗效的主要因素为肾小球硬化率及肾小管间质病变程度。     

Systematic review of methods to diagnose infection in foot ulcers in diabetes.

AIM: To undertake a systematic review of the diagnostic performance of clinical examination, sample acquisition and sample analysis in infected foot ulcers in diabetes. METHODS: Nineteen electronic databases plus other sources were searched. To be included, studies had to fulfil the following criteria: (i) compare a method of clinical assessment, sample collection or sample analysis with a reference standard; (ii) recruit diabetic individuals with foot ulcers; (ii) present 2 x 2 diagnostic data. Studies were critically appraised using a 12-item checklist. RESULTS: Three eligible studies were identified, one each on clinical examination, sample collection and sample analysis. For all three, study groups were heterogeneous with respect to wound type and a small proportion of participants had foot ulcers due to diabetes. No studies identified an optimum reference standard. Other methodological problems included non-blind interpretation of tests and the time lag between index and reference tests. Individual signs or symptoms of infection did not prove to be useful tests when assessed against punch biopsy as the reference standard. The wound swab did not perform well when assessed against tissue biopsy. Semiquantitative analysis of wound swab might be a useful alternative to quantitative analysis. The limitations of these findings and their impact on recommendations from relevant clinical guidelines are discussed. CONCLUSION: Given the importance of this topic, it is surprising that only three eligible studies were identified. It was not possible to describe the optimal methods of diagnosing infection in diabetic patients with foot ulceration from the evidence identified in this systematic review.

氟伐他汀对糖尿病肾病大鼠足细胞分布及排泄的影响

目的探讨氟伐他汀对DN大鼠足细胞分布及排泄的影响。方法将大鼠分为3组：对照组、DN模型组、氟伐他汀治疗组。腹腔注射链脲菌素（STZ）诱导DN大鼠模型。实验10周末测24小时尿蛋白定量（TP）、血清总胆固醇（TC），间接免疫荧光法检测尿沉渣足细胞特异性标志蛋白podocalyxin（PCX）以检测尿液足细胞（UPC）水平；免疫荧光染色观察肾小球上皮细胞蛋白-1（GLEPP1）的分布。结果DN模型组UPC、TP、TC较对照组均明显升高；氟伐他汀治疗组TC、UPC及TP较DN模型组均降低；对照组GLEPP1正常、DN模型组呈节段性明显缺失、氟伐他汀治疗组缺失较轻。UPC与TP呈正相关，与TC无显著相关性。结论尿液中脱落足细胞检测可作为判断DN病情活动性的标志之一。氟伐他汀可减轻DN大鼠尿蛋白、降低胆固醇、减少足细胞脱落及排泄。

Increased glucose excursion in cystic fibrosis and its association with a worse clinical status

BACKGROUND: Abnormal glucose tolerance is a frequent co-morbidity in cystic fibrosis patients (CF), and is associated with a worse prognosis. The objectives are to investigate (a) the relative contribution of insulinopenia and insulin resistance (IR) for glucose tolerance and (b) the association between various glucose parameters and CF clinical status. METHODS: Oral glucose tolerance tests were performed in 114 consecutive CF patients not known to be diabetic as well as 14 controls similar for age and BMI. RESULTS: Abnormal glucose tolerance was found in 40% of patients with CF: 28% had impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and 12% had new cystic fibrosis related diabetes (CFRD). Compared to control subjects, all CF patients were characterized by an increased glucose excursion (AUC). While reduced early insulin release characterised CF, IGT and CFRD patients also present IR thus both mechanisms significantly contribute to glucose tolerance abnormalities. Increased glucose AUC and reduced early insulin release but not glucose tolerance categories were associated with a reduced pulmonary function (FEV(1)). CONCLUSION: In CF, early insulin secretion defect but also IR contribute to glucose intolerance. Early in the course of the disease, increased glucose AUC and reduced early insulin secretion are more closely associated with a worse clinical status than conventional glucose tolerance categories.

循环内皮细胞水平与糖尿病肾病的相关性及银杏达莫的干预作用

目的:探讨外周血循环内皮细胞(CEC)和糖尿病肾病(DN)的相关性,以及银杏达莫注射液在DN防治中的可能作用。方法:检测65例2型糖尿病患者24h尿白蛋白排泄率(UAER)及CEC数,分析两者的相关性。将UAER为30~300mg·d-1的45例患者随机分为两组,常规治疗组22例,进行常规降血糖、控制血压等治疗;银杏达莫治疗组23例,在常规治疗基础上静脉滴注银杏达莫注射液2周。比较两组治疗前后血糖、血压、UAER及CEC水平的变化。结果:单纯糖尿病(SDM)组和早期糖尿病肾病(EDN)组的外周血CEC水平比对照组(NC)显著性升高,并呈逐渐增高的趋势(P<0.01)。UAER与收缩压(SBP)、外周血CEC水平呈正相关(P<0.01)。EDN组中,银杏达莫治疗后UAER及CEC明显降低(P<0.01);而常规治疗组无明显变化。线性多元逐步回归分析表明,银杏达莫治疗后UAER的改变与CEC数的变化成正相关(P<0.01)。结论:血管内皮细胞(VEC)损伤在DN发生发展中起重要作用,银杏达莫对VEC的保护作用可能是其延缓DN发展的重要机制。     

Improvement of endoneurial lipid abnormalities in experimental diabetic neuropathy by oxygen modification

Endoneurial hypoxia and a high frequency of closed capillaries have been found in chronic experimental diabetes and human diabetic sural nerve, respectively. These findings have led to the hypothesis that the pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathy is due to endoneurial hypoxia. To evaluate the role of endoneurial hypoxia in experimental diabetic neuropathy, the effects of supplementation and deprivation of oxygen on peripheral nerve lipid biosynthesis were studied in normal control and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Defective lipid biosynthesis in diabetic nerve was partially prevented by oxygen supplementation. When normal rats were placed in a hypoxic chamber, lipid abnormalities similar to those observed in diabetic nerves were demonstrated in the absence of changes in nerve free sugars. These findings suggest that endoneurial hypoxia may underlie some key biochemical abnormalities encountered in experimental diabetic neuropathy.
