家兔缺血与再灌流肾内脂质过氧化物含量的变化

本研究发现:家兔缺血60min(未再灌流)肾皮质和髓质内,脂质过氧化物含量均显著降低;缺血60min再灌流15min的肾皮质和髓质内,脂质过氧化物含量均显著增加。实验提示:缺血再灌流贤内氧自由基“爆发性”生成所引发的脂质过氧化可能是肾缺血性损伤的重要机制之一。

山莨菪碱防治甘油所致急性肾功能衰竭的实验研究

在１２９只ＳＤ大鼠的实验中动态观察了山莨菪碱对甘油所致急性肾功能衰竭时不同时期的Ｂｃｒ，ＢＵＮ，ｐＨ病理改变及死亡率的影响，结果表明：山莨菪碱能降低ＡＲＦ第５天大鼠死亡率以及Ｂｃｒ，ＢＵＮ水平。改善病理损害，对ＡＲＦ起到预防及治疗效果，山莨菪碱的预防效果优于治疗效果，预防是ＡＲＦ防治的关键，但山莨菪碱在治疗过程中要引起“冲刷综合征”导致洗脱性酸中毒，应引起注意。     

Hypercalcemic hyperparathyroidism and hypophosphatemic osteomalacia complicating neurofibromatosis

Summary Neurofibromatosis is sometimes complicated by impaired renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate, hypophosphatemia, and osteomalacia. Hyperparathyroidism has also been reported in patients with neurofibromatosis. When hypercalcemia and elevated levels of parathyroid hormone are found in osteomalacia, however, it may be difficult to determine if the hyperparathyroidism was primary or tertiary. We describe a patient with neurofibromatosis, hypercalcemic hyperparathyroidism, hypophosphatemic osteomalacia, vitamin D deficiency, and clear-cell hyperplasia of all four parathyroid glands. Serial biomechanical, bone biopsy, and densitometric studies confirmed that treatment with ergocalciferol, calcium, and phosphate supplements significantly improved the osteomalacia but caused increased parathyroid overactivity. After subtotal parathyroidectomy, the parathyroid hormone concentration became normal and the bone mineral content increased at the spine and hip, but inappropriate phosphaturia persisted. The findings indicate that hyperparathyroidism, osteomalacia, and vitamin D deficiency adversely affect each other.

Longitudinal study of the frequency of cytotoxic T cell precursors in kidney allograft recipients

Clonal deletion or inactivation of donor-specific alloreactive cells are important mechanisms that are believed to account for acquired immune tolerance in allograft recipients. Serial assessment of precursor cytotoxic T lymphocyte frequencies (CTLpf) by limiting dilution analysis (LDA) provides information at the clonal level on changes in the alloimmune response of graft recipients. We performed a longitudinal study of 15 cadaveric kidney recipients before and every 3 months throughout the first year after transplantation (Tx). Pre-Tx values of donor CTLpf showed high interindividual variability without a predictive value for the clinical outcome. All patients with well functioning kidneys had decreased CTLpf at 3 months post-Tx in comparison with pre-Tx values. This decrease was donor-specific in four patients and was permanent in two cases throughout the study. Most patients presented decreased anti-donor CTLpf values from 6 to 9 months, whereas a partial recovery of donor CTLpf was observed in three patients. Reversible acute rejection was diagnosed in three patients, and it was associated with a marked increase in anti-donor CTLpf, returning to pre-Tx values by 9 months post-Tx. In addition, one patient with chronic rejection displayed a transient increase in CTLpf 6 months after Tx. The results of this sequential study indicate the establishment of a state of either hyporesponsiveness or functional clonal inactivation, transient or permanent, which could facilitate allograft acceptance.

Neuro-toxic interaction in alcohol-treated,thiamine-deficient mice

Summary Groups of adult male mice were either fed a thiamine-deficient diet for 10 weeks and thereafter treated with ethanol by making them inhale vapourized cane spirit for 10 weeks, or given both treatments simultaneously. The brains of these mice were then searched for degeneration using both light and electron microscopy. No degenerating nerve cells were observed in any animal in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, cerebellum, olfactory bulbs, midbrain or hindbrain. However, axon terminal degeneration was seen in the olfactory bulbs and deep cerebellar nuclei in mice given the combined treatment. No cerebellar degeneration was found and only little degeneration was present in the olfactory bulbs of mice given the two treatments at different times. Thus, the combined treatment of alcohol and thiamine deficiency produced more brain damage than the sum of that produced by the two treatments given separately. This represents the first experimental in vivo demonstration of a biochemical interaction between these two factors in alcohol-related brain damage. The findings of long-term animal treatment with models using thiamine antagonists are compared.Supported by the special Research Fund Programme of Monash University (Post-Doctoral Fellowship)     

测定血清及尿β2微球蛋白评估健康老年人肾功能的价值

测定72例健康老年人（60-84岁）和65例健康青中年人（20-50岁）血清和尿β2微球蛋白（β2m)，发现前血清β2m浓度比后明显增高（p<0.001)；老年组≥70岁尿液β2m浓度也明显增高（p<0.05)。结果表明肾小球滤过率下降随年龄增长而降低，以后再出现肾小管功能减退。本试验较血清尿素氮、肌酐和内生肌酐清除率测定更为敏感。     

Efficacy and safety of lowering immunosuppression to treat CMV infection in renal transplant recipients on valaciclovir prophylaxis: a pilot study.

BACKGROUND: Routine cytomegalovirus (CMV)-pp65 antigenaemia monitoring shows that some patients will develop pp65 antigenaemia during valaciclovir prophylaxis or after cessation of treatment. The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of lowering immunosuppression in kidney transplant recipients who exhibit mildly symptomatic CMV infections while on valaciclovir prophylaxis. METHODS: We selected 12 patients who experienced mildly symptomatic CMV infections defined as a positive CMV-pp65 antigenaemia test associated with either neutropenia, asthenia or arthralgia, but no fever. All of them received prophylaxis with valaciclovir for at least 3 months. Testing for CMV-pp65 antigenaemia was performed weekly for 6 months. RESULTS: The mildly symptomatic infections occurred at a median interval of 69 days after transplantation-during prophylaxis in eight cases and after valaciclovir discontinuation in the other four cases. All of them were effectively managed by lowering immunosuppressive therapy, leading to the disappearance of symptoms and CMV antigenaemia reduction. No immunological complication or recurrence of CMV infection or disease was noted. I.v. ganciclovir never became necessary. CONCLUSION: The mildly symptomatic CMV infections occurring in valaciclovir-treated patients may be managed efficiently and without immunologic complication by lowering immunosuppressive therapy.
