Chromatic pattern-reversal electroretinograms (ChPERGs) are spared in multiple system atrophy compared with Parkinson’s disease

Abstract Idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (IPD) patients have abnormal visual evoked potentials (VEPs) and pattern electroretinograms (PERGs), attributed to dopaminergic transmission deficiency in visual pathway, probably the retina. VEP abnormalities are not reported in multiple system atrophy (MSA). The aim of this study was to investigate and compare chromatic (Ch) red-green (R-G) and blue-yellow (B-Y), and luminance yellow-black (Y-Bk) PERGs in patients with MSA and IPD. We investigated 6 MSA patients (mean age: 62±7.4 years) not undergoing any pharmacological treatment, as well as 12 early IPD patients (mean age: 60.1±8.3 years) and 12 age-matched normal observers. ChPERGs were recorded monocularly in response to full-field equiluminant R-G, B-Y and Y-Bk horizontal gratings. In MSA only responses to R-G stimuli showed minimal insignificant changes (slight but not significant amplitude reduction without any significant latency delay); no significant abnormality was detected for B-Y and luminance Y-Bk stimuli. By contrast, in IPD all responses were reduced in amplitude and delayed in latency, above all for B-Y stimuli. Present data indicate that both chromatic and achromatic PERGs are virtually unaffected in MSA, whereas in early IPD they are clearly impaired, suggesting different pathogenic retinal mechanisms and a useful simple tool for distinguishing MSA from IPD.     

多巴酚丁胺负荷超声心动图及组织多普勒成像技术在诊断冠心病中的临床应用

目的探讨多巴酚丁胺负荷超声心动图(DSE)和组织多普勒成像技术(TDI)在冠心病(CHD)诊断中的应用价值,以寻求一种敏感的、无创的CHD诊断方法。方法选择胸闷或胸痛怀疑CHD患者40例,应用TDI测量静息状态(Rest)下前壁中段收缩峰值速度(Vs),以及多巴酚丁胺峰值负荷状态(Peak)下前壁中段Vs,同时测量静息心率和负荷心率;所有入选对象均进行冠脉造影,并根据左前降支狭窄程度是否大于等于50%分为左前降支狭窄组(LST组)与左前降支非狭窄组(non-LST组)。分别比较Rest和Peak前壁中段LST组与non-LST组平均Vs差别等。结果Rest前壁中段LST组与non-LST组Vs差别无显著性意义;但Peak前壁中段LST组与non-LST组差别有显著性意义。结论DSE结合TDI是诊断冠心病有价值的定量分析方法。DSE在诊断CHD时的敏感性、准确性明显优于静息状态超声心动图。

Kidney Disease After Heart and Lung Transplantation

Kidney disease is a commonly recognized complication of heart and lung transplantation and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. While the spectrum of kidney disease in this population is wide-ranging, studies indicate that between 3% and 10% of these patients will ultimately develop end-stage renal disease (ESRD). This review examines the risk factors for both acute and chronic kidney injury, with a particular emphasis on the role of calcineurin inhibitor-mediated nephrotoxicity in both these settings. Against the background of current National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) guidelines, we have further considered and recommended appropriate strategies for long-term management of kidney disease-related manifestations in heart and lung transplant recipients. Specific aspects addressed include retarding progressive renal injury and minimizing nephrotoxicity, as well as treatment of hypertension, hyperlipidemia and anemia. Finally, for patients in this population with advanced kidney disease, renal replacement therapy options are discussed. Based on the impact of chronic kidney disease on outcomes in both heart and lung recipients, we advocate early referral to a nephrologist for patients displaying evidence of significant renal dysfunction.     

International multicenter pilot study of the first comprehensive self-completed nonmotor symptoms questionnaire for Parkinson's disease: the NMSQuest study.

Nonmotor symptoms (NMS) of Parkinson's disease (PD) are not well recognized in clinical practice, either in primary or in secondary care, and are frequently missed during routine consultations. There is no single instrument (questionnaire or scale) that enables a comprehensive assessment of the range of NMS in PD both for the identification of problems and for the measurement of outcome. Against this background, a multidisciplinary group of experts, including patient group representatives, has developed an NMS screening questionnaire comprising 30 items. This instrument does not provide an overall score of disability and is not a graded or rating instrument. Instead, it is a screening tool designed to draw attention to the presence of NMS and initiate further investigation. In this article, we present the results from an international pilot study assessing feasibility, validity, and acceptability of a nonmotor questionnaire (NMSQuest). Data from 123 PD patients and 96 controls were analyzed. NMS were highly significantly more prevalent in PD compared to controls (PD NMS, median = 9.0, mean = 9.5 vs. control NMS, median = 5.5, mean = 4.0; Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis, and t test, P < 0.0001), with PD patients reporting at least 10 different NMS on average per patient. In PD, NMS were highly significantly more prevalent across all disease stages and the number of symptoms correlated significantly with advancing disease and duration of disease. Furthermore, frequently, problems such as diplopia, dribbling, apathy, blues, taste and smell problems were never previously disclosed to the health professionals.     

肾移植患者的多药耐药基因外显子26基因型与术后他克莫司用量的关系

目的研究肾移植患者的多药耐药基因(MDR1)外显子26(exon26)的基因型与术后他克莫司(FK506)用量的关系。方法回顾106例肾移植术后常规使用FK506患者的临床资料。肾移植患者MDR1 exon26基因分型的方法为:提取患者的DNA,采用聚合酶链反应(PCR)扩增MDR1基因,检测限制性内切酶片段的多态性(RFLP)。根据MDR1 exon26基因分型将患者分为CC、CT和TT 3组。检测各组患者肾移植后第3、6和12个月的FK506血药浓度,比较各组患者FK506血药浓度／FK506用量(μg·L-1／mg·kg-1·d-1)的比值及术后1个月内的急性排斥反应发生率。结果受者经MDR1 exon26基因分型示:CC型32例(30．2％),TT型30例(28．3％),CT型44例(41．5％)。CC型患者FK506血药浓度／FK506用量的比值明显低于CT型和TT型(P<0．01),而CT型患者又低于TT型(P<0．05)。CC型患者的排斥反应发生率明显高于CT和TT型(P<0．05),CT与TT型比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0．05)。结论MDR1 exon26 CC型的患者与CT或TT型比较,需服用更高剂量的FK506才能取得与CT或TT型相似的血药浓度。因此,了解患者的MDR1 exon26基因型有利于指导患者肾移植术后个体化用药。

安博维对环孢素A慢性肾毒性大鼠肾间质骨桥蛋白表达及巨噬细胞浸润的影响

目的①观察安博维(厄贝沙坦)干预治疗后环孢素A(CsA)所致慢性肾毒性大鼠肾脏病理变化。②观察安博维对CsA慢性肾毒性大鼠模型肾骨桥蛋白(OPN)表达及间质ED1阳性巨噬细胞浸润的影响,以探讨安博维防护CsA慢性肾毒性的可能机制。方法给进低盐饮食SD大鼠灌胃20mg·(kg·d)-1剂量的CsA制作大鼠CsA肾毒模型,同时以10mg·(kg·d)-1剂量的安博维胃饲以预防肾毒性。于用药后第1、2、4周末时分别处死各组大鼠,免疫组织化学法测定OPN、ED1的表达,用HE染色观察肾脏病理变化。结果安博维能明显改善CsA肾中毒大鼠的一般情况,减少肾小管上皮细胞空泡变性和萎缩,减少间质炎细胞浸润及间质纤维化。免疫组化结果显示模型组肾小管-间质OPN与ED1表达较对照组增加(p<0.05);在试验各时间点,安博维组大鼠肾小管-间质ED-1阳性巨噬细胞数量及OPN表达较模型组显著减少(p<0.05);OPN仍高于对照组((p<0.05),ED-1阳性巨噬细胞数量在第1、2周末与对照组无差异(p>0.05),但在第4周末高于对照组(p<0.05)。结论安博维能减轻CsA慢性肾毒性的肾脏病理损伤,这一防治作用可能与其减少ED-1阳性巨噬细胞浸润及下调OPN表达有关。
