低角度青少年特发性脊柱侧凸女性患者的骨密度分析

目的分析低角度青少年特发性脊柱侧凸(adolescent idiopathic scoliosis,AIS)女性患者的骨密度(BMD)和骨矿含量(BMC),探讨其与年龄、生长发育、人体测量学和侧凸角度等的相关性。方法研究对象为218例Cobb角15～40°的女性AIS患者。运用双能X线骨密度吸收仪测定非优势侧股骨颈和腰椎的BMC/BMD。探讨这两个部位的BMC/BMD与患者的年龄、生长发育、人体测量学和侧凸角度等的相关性。结果所有患者的年龄平均为(13.4±1.4)岁,Cobb角平均为(28.3±6.2)°。股骨颈BMD平均为(0.827±0.103)g/cm2,腰椎BMD平均为(0.887±0.124)g/cm2,显著低于同龄健康女性儿童;股骨颈BMC平均为(3.49±0.56)g,腰椎BMC平均为(29.78±7.37)g。患者的BMC/BMD与Cobb角无显著相关,而与体重、身高、Risser征、月经状况、BMI和年龄显著相关。逐步回归分析显示,体重和年龄是影响患者BMD的主要因素。结论低角度女性AIS患者存在全身性的骨量减低,且与Cobb角无显著相关,而与生长发育和人体测量学相关指标显著相关。这提示AIS患者的骨量减低与生长发育和低体重有关。

Acute neurite retraction triggered by lysophosphatidic acid: timing of the inhibitory effects of genistein

Acute neurite retraction, elicited by diverse agents in several neuronal cell types, has been reported to be inhibited by genistein, a kinase antagonist that is relatively (though not absolutely) selective for tyrosine kinases. It was hypothesized that genistein acts upon ssome final common pathway that integrates multiple extrinsic and intrinsic signals to regulate whether neurites will execute a retraction response (J. Neurochem., 61 (1993) 340–343). To define this pathway in more detail, a quantitative study of NG108-15 cell rapid-onset neurites was carried out as they retract in response to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, 10 μM). Following the application of LPA, most neurites exhibited early morphologic changes between 0.5 and 1.5 min, followed by progressive shortening and eventual retraction, with 50% of neurites completely retracted by 5 min and 80% gone by 10 min. Genistein did not inhibit the formation of subcortical F-actin, nor its functional competence in several assays. Genistein protected neurites when added at any time prior to the onset of the earliest morphologic changes, but failed to block progression when added to neurites that were already undergoing retraction. These findings imply that the final common pathway (i.e. the critical target(s) for genistein) must be activated late, after the increase in F-actin levels has peaked and just before retraction is initiated.     

Growth hormone is not able to counteract osteopenia of rat cortical bone induced by Glucocorticoid with protracted effect

Osteopenia and inhibited longitudinal growth in childhood are serious side effects during glucocorticoid therapy. The effects of glucocorticoids on bone have been confirmed in animal experiments. Long-term glucocorticoid administration to rats results in reduced body weights, reduced bone growth (length and cross-sectional area), and bone strength. Glucocorticoid treatment also resulted in a reduced bending stress, indicating reduced bone quality. Growth hormone, on the other hand, increased body weights, bone dimensions, and bone strength. The aim of the present study was to evaluate if growth hormone administration would have an anabolic effect on rat bone when given to animals also receiving a high dosage of glucocorticoid. Five groups of female rats, 3.5 months old, were treated as follows: (1) saline control; (2) glucocorticoid (prednisolone: Delcortol 5 mg/kg/day); (3) growth hormone (recombinant human growth hormone 5 mg/kg/day); (4) glucocorticoid and growth hormone; and (5) food restriction, consisting of restricted access to food to reduce their weight gain to match that of the glucocorticoid injected rats. After 80 days of hormone administration the animals were sacrificed. The right femur was removed and tested biomechanically in a three-point bending procedure. The left femur was used for determination of bone dimensions. Biomechanical parameters (ultimate load and ultimate stiffness) were then normalized to diaphyseal cross-sectional diameters of the femur, giving the values of ultimate bending stress and Young's modulus. Results: administration of both hormones simultaneously could not reverse the decrease in body weights, bone length, and diameters, or the decreased bone strength induced by glucocorticoid administration. In conclusion, growth hormone cannot prevent cortical osteopenia in female rats induced by a high dose of glucocorticoid with protracted effect.

An approach to protein restriction in children with renal insufficiency

Children with mild to moderate renal insufficiency may be at an increased risk for developing glomerulosclerosis and subsequent renal failure. Low protein diets (LPD) have been shown to delay the progression of renal insufficiency in laboratory animals and may be of benefit in adult humans. The nutritional costs of a LPD in adults are reportedly minimal. We review the protein and caloric requirements of growing children and discuss the potential harmful effects and benefits of an LPD in this population. We also discuss dietary adherence and the difficulty of designing an LPD for children. We conclude that the protein content of a typical American diet can safely be reduced to, but not below, the recommended daily allowance for protein if diets are carefully planned, patients and their parents extensively counseled, and if dietary supplements are given to help meet the caloric and vitamin-mineral nutrient needs of growing children. In addition, ongoing nutritional assessment, counseling, and frequent monitoring of growth, diet and biochemical indicators of protein status are essential for maintaining the health of these children.
