Tiny cystine stones in the gallbladder of a patient with cholecystolithiasis complicating acute cholecystitis: a case report

Cystine stones, the main component of which is cystine, are very common urinary calculi, but are rare in the gall bladder. In animals, there has been only one report of cystine gallstones in tree shrews, and to our knowledge, this is the first report of cystine gallstones in humans.     

乳腺癌超声弹性成像面积比与其组织学分级、临床分期关系的初步研究

目的探讨乳腺超声弹性成像面积比（AR）对乳腺癌患者病情发展及预后评估的参考价值。方法回顾性分析105例经病理结果证实的乳腺癌患者临床资料,术前行乳腺常规超声及超声弹性成像检查,分析乳腺癌患者不同组织学分级间、不同临床分期间AR参数的变化情况。结果术前以AR≥1.5为诊断恶性的标准,73例恶性,诊断符合率为69.52%。超声弹性成像AR在各组织学分级、临床分期组间差异有统计学意义（P〈0.05）：组织学分级Ⅰ～Ⅲ级的AR值分别为1.210±0.018、1.470±0.126、1.600±0.028,临床分期Ⅰ～Ⅳ期AR值分别为1.230±0.056、1.540±0.017、1.580±0.025及1.620±0.023,即AR在组织分级较高及临床分期较晚时增大。结论 AR可为乳腺癌病情发展及预后评估提供有价值的参考信息。     

Insulin-induced insulin receptor substrate-1 degradation is mediated by the proteasome degradation pathway.

Insulin receptor substrate (IRS) proteins are important intracellular molecules that mediate insulin receptor tyrosine kinase signaling. A decreased content of IRS proteins has been found in insulin-resistant states in animals, humans, and cultured cells under various conditions. However, the molecular mechanism that controls cellular levels of IRS proteins is unknown. We report that chronic insulin treatment induces the degradation of IRS-1, but not IRS-2, protein in cultured cells. The insulin-induced degradation of IRS-1 can be prevented by pretreatment with lactacystin, a specific inhibitor for proteasome degradation. These data demonstrate, for the first time, that insulin-induced degradation of IRS-1 is mediated by the proteasome degradation pathway. IRS-2 can escape from the insulin-induced proteasome degradation, suggesting the existence of specific structural requirements for this degradation process.

Are cystatin C-based equations superior to creatinine-based equations for estimating GFR in Chinese elderly population?

Purpose

Cystatin C has been proposed as a surrogate marker of kidney function. The elderly population accounts for the largest proportion of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic value of serum cystatin C and compare the applicability of cystatin C-based equations with serum creatinine (Scr)-based equations for estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR).

Methods

The estimated GFR (eGFR) values from six cystatin C-based equations (Tan, MacIsaac, Ma, Stevens1-3) and three Scr-based equations (CG, MDRD, CKD-EPI) were compared with the reference GFR (rGFR) values from ^99mTc-DTPA renal dynamic imaging method.

Results

A total of 110 elderly Chinese (60?C92?year, 71.05?±?7.62?year) were enrolled. Cystatin C had better diagnostic value than Scr (relationship coefficient with rGFR: cystatin C ?0.847 vs. Scr ?0.729, P?<?0.01; sensitivity: cystatin C 0.90 vs. Scr 0.55, P?<?0.01; AUC^ROC: cystatin C 0.857 vs. Scr 0.757, P?<?0.01). All the equations predicted GFR more accurately for rGFR????60?ml/min/1.73?m² than for rGFR?<?60?ml/min/1.73?m². Most equations had acceptable accuracy. The cystatin C-based equations deviated from rGFR by ?12.78?ml/min/1.73?m² to ?2.12?ml/min/1.73?m², with accuracy varying from 64.6 to 82.7?%. The Scr-based equations deviated from rGFR by ?5.37?ml/min/1.73?m² to ?0.68?ml/min/1.73?m², with accuracy varying from 77.3 to 79.1?%. The CKD-EPI, MacIsaac and Ma equations predicted no bias with rGFR (P?>?0.05), with higher accuracy and lower deviation in the total group. The MacIsaac, CKD-EPI and Stevens3 equations could be optimal for those with normal and mildly impaired kidney function, whereas the Ma equation for those with CKD.

Conclusion

Cystatin C is a promising kidney function marker. However, not all cystatin C-based equations could be superior to the Scr-equations.     

胆囊癌发生相关危险因素的探讨

目的 探索胆囊癌发生的相关危险因素,为防治胆囊癌提供理论依据.方法 回顾性分析2000年1月至2010年12月北京协和医院收治的153例胆囊癌患者(胆囊癌组)的临床病理资料,并抽取同期收治的300例胆囊结石患者(胆囊结石组)和300例非胆道疾病的成年患者(对照组)作为对照进行1:2病例对照研究.计数资料采用x2检验,对相关危险因素先进行单因素分析,采用x2检验,筛选出有统计学意义的可疑危险因素,再用多因素Logistic回归方程进行分析.结果 胆囊癌组与对照组患者比较,年龄、胆囊结石病史、绝经年龄、累积行经时间、生育与否及生育次数是胆囊癌的危险因素,差异有统计学意义(x2=58.22,180.14,9.59,24.30,18.66,15.17,P＜0.05);年龄、胆囊结石病史、累积行经时间及生育次数是胆囊癌的独立危险因素(x2=55.76,180.95,24.30,8.54,P＜0.05);进一步分析发现,有胆囊结石的患者罹患胆囊癌的危险性是无相关病史患者的34倍( OR =34.22).绝经年龄越晚(51～55岁)、累积行经时间越长(≥30年)、生育次数较多(3次)的女性患胆囊癌的可能性越大(OR=3.96,9.68,3.51).胆囊癌组胆囊结石患者与胆囊结石组患者比较,年龄、胆囊结石病程、累积行经时间及生育次数是胆囊癌的危险因素(x2=70.66,16.66,11.59,4.69,P＜0.05);年龄、胆囊结石病程及累积行经时间是患胆囊癌的独立危险因素(x2=64.29,8.82,5.58,P＜0.05);进一步分析发现,罹患胆囊癌危险性随着年龄升高而增大,胆囊癌发生的危险性随着结石病程延长而升高.对于女性患者,累积行经时间≥30年也会增加罹患胆囊癌的危险因素.结论 年龄、胆囊结石病史、胆囊结石病程、累积行经时间及生育次数可能是胆囊癌发病的危险因素.对于年龄≥60岁、胆囊结石病程≥3年的患者应切除胆囊,以降低胆囊癌的发病率;女性患者有以上表现者应高度重视,及时诊断和治疗.
