Chloride transport in the renal proximal tubule

The renal proximal tubule is responsible for most of the renal sodium, chloride, and bicarbonate reabsorption. Micropuncture studies and electrophysiological techniques have furnished the bulk of our knowledge about the physiology of this tubular segment. As a consequence of the leakiness of this epithelium, paracellular ionic transport--in particular that of Cl(-)--is of considerable importance in this first part of the nephron. It was long accepted that proximal Cl(-) reabsorption proceeds solely paracellularly, but it is now known that transcellular Cl(-) transport also exists. Cl(-) channels and Cl(-)-coupled transporters are involved in transcellular Cl(-) transport. In the apical membrane, Cl(-)/anion (formate, oxalate and bicarbonate) exchangers represent the first step in transcellular Cl(-) reabsorption. A basolateral Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger, involved in HCO(3)(-) reclamation, participates in the rise of intracellular Cl(-) activity above its equilibrium value, and thus also contributes to the creation of an outwardly directed electrochemical Cl(-) gradient across the cell membranes. This driving force favours Cl(-) diffusion from the cell to the lumen and to the interstitium. In the basolateral membrane, the main mechanism for transcellular Cl(-) reabsorption is a Cl(-) conductance, but a Na(+)-driven Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger may also participate in Cl(-) reabsorption.     

Gaps and fragmentation of the superficial cortex in the abdominal and pelvic lymph nodes of elderly Japanese

Gaps and fragmentation of the superficial lymph node cortex are considered to provide intranodal shunt flow between the afferent and efferent vessels. Using serial sections of 205 nodes obtained from 27 donated cadavers more than 70 years of age, we examined the histological architecture of the abdominal and pelvic nodes in elderly Japanese. Secondary follicles were rare in the specimens. Cortex gaps were, to a greater or lesser degree, found in all nodes. We classified these nodes into three types according to how often the gap occurred. Type 1 nodes, with a relatively complete shield for the afferent lymph, were most frequently found in gastric nodes, whereas type 3 nodes, with numerous gaps, were often observed in the colic, para-aortic and pelvic nodes. The type 3 nodes showed a specific architecture characterized by a fragmented superficial cortex, three-dimensionally assembled cords and a common sinus between them. Primary follicles were located in the assembled cord structures as well as at the superficial cortex. Irrespective of the type, B and T lymphocyte areas were intermingled in the cortex-like areas. The present results reveal region-specific histological heterogeneity in aged human visceral nodes. Due to increased surface areas, the type 3 architecture seemed to accelerate systemic immunity rather than act as a local barrier in the para-aortic and pelvic nodes, which are located centrally along the lymphatic drainage routes. However, thick trabeculae often seemed to develop in the type 3 sinus to decrease nodal function with aging.

股骨粗隆间骨折采用改良L形钢板内固定的生物力学原理与临床应用

作者自1994年始采用自行设计L形钢板内固定治疗不稳定股骨粗隆间骨折60例，平均随访25个月，X线片显示骨折愈合时间6～13周，平均8．9周，伤肢功能在3个月内基本恢复正常，无骨折延迟愈合及髋内翻现象。为论证改良L形钢板的优点，本文采用8具新鲜尸股骨沿着它的外侧、内侧骨皮质粘贴6个应变片，观察股骨近端应变和位移分布，以检验改良L形钢板固定粗隆间骨折的效果。在实验前后将股骨粗隆造成二部分或四部分骨折。利用实验结果给制成应变和位移图，并与鹅头打固定组相比较。在载荷加至1800N时比较两种内固定器械的生物力学性能。结果表明，在治疗不稳定粗隆间骨折中，L形钢板比鹅头钉更具有生物力学的优势。     

Dominantly inherited tubular aggregate myopathy.

We report an unusual familial myopathy characterized morphologically by the presence of large tubular aggregates in all fibre types. Two patients, a father and daughter, presented with slowly progressive proximal weakness, limitation of eye movement, and Achilles tendon contractures. Serum creatine kinase was 5-10 times normal. Light microscopy revealed type I fibre predominance. Basophilic accumulations, which stained intensely with the NADH-TR reaction, were present in both fibre types. Electron microscopy revealed that these consisted of tightly packed parallel tubular arrays. These varied somewhat in their ultrastructural appearance and were classified accordingly as type I, II, and III tubular structures. The tubular aggregates appear to be derived from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. This report further supports the evidence of a distinct clinico-pathological entity of genetic origin.     

Structural evidence for counter-current flow in proximal tubules versus pertitubular capillaries in the rat kidney. Evaluation of the counter-current mechanism between the proximal convoluted tubules and the peritubular capillaries in the rat nephron

BACKGROUND: In spite of the very high exchange of water and solutes between the proximal tubules and the peritubular capillaries, very little is known about flow directions in these two interrelated structures. We therefore developed a morphological technique suitable for the quantitative evaluation of a counter-current system between the proximal convoluted tubules and the peritubular capillaries in rat renal cortex. METHODS: In male pentothal-anesthetized Wistar rats (body weight 200-250 g), India ink was injected into the aorta above the renal arteries, followed by instant freezing of the right kidney in isopentane at -165 degrees C, and subsequent freeze-substitution in alcohol. In microscopic slides from kidneys in which only 20-55% of the cortical peritubular capillary loops was filled with ink--representing the arterial end of the capillaries--and in which the proximal tubular segmentation could be identified in PAS-stained sections, the segments of the convoluted proximal tubules were quantitatively compared with regard to the presence of ink-stained and unstained peritubular capillaries in nephrons from the whole renal cortex. RESULTS: In the microscopic specimens of the five animals used both the loops from the first segment (P1) of the proximal convoluted tubule and those of the second segment (P2) were systematically packed closely together, the transitional segment (P1-2) being interposed between the groups. Around the loops of P1, 8%+/-2% of the capillaries was stained with India ink. In contrast, surrounding the P2 loops 67%+/-5% of the capillaries contained ink, significantly exceeding that for P1 (p<0.01). CONCLUSION: Throughout the rat renal cortex, the most proximal fraction of the peritubular capillaries surrounds the second segments of the proximal convoluted tubules, while the first tubular segments are surrounded by the more distal fraction of the peritubular capillaries. Consequently, the flows in the peritubular capillaries and in the proximal convoluted tubules in the rat renal cortex are systematically arranged as a counter-current system. This feature was previously identified only in superficial nephrons.     

A randomised controlled trial to test the feasibility of a collaborative care model for the management of depression in older people

BACKGROUND: Depression is the most common mental health disorder in people aged over 65 years. Late-life depression is associated with chronic illness and disability. AIM: To investigate the feasibility of a collaborative care model for depression in older people in a primary care setting. DESIGN OF STUDY: Randomised controlled trial with 16-weeks follow up. SETTING: A primary care trust in Manchester. METHOD: Participants were 105 people aged 60 years or older who scored 5 or more on the Geriatric Depression Scale; 53 were randomly allocated to an intervention group and 52 to a usual care group. The intervention group received care managed by a community psychiatric nurse who delivered an intervention comprising a facilitated self-help programme with close liaison with primary care professionals and old-age psychiatry according to a defined protocol. The usual care group received usual GP care. A nested qualitative study explored the views of the health professionals and patients regarding the acceptability and effectiveness of the intervention. RESULTS: The main outcome measure was recovery from depression. Patients in the intervention group were less likely to suffer from major depressive disorder at follow up compared with usual care (0.32, 95% confidence = interval = 0.11 to 0.93, P = 0.036). The qualitative component of the study demonstrated the acceptability of the intervention to patients. CONCLUSION: A model of collaborative care for older people with depression, used in a primary care setting with a facilitated self-help intervention is more effective than usual GP care. This study demonstrates that the implementation of a collaborative care model is feasible in UK primary care and that the intervention is effective and acceptable to patients.     

Skeletal abnormalities in the Apert syndrome

This paper reports on skeletal abnormalities in 38 patients with Apert syndrome. Analysis includes alterations in the shoulders, humeri, elbows, hips, knees, rib cage, and spine (except the cervical spine). Some patients had subacromial dimples and elbow dimples during infancy. Mobility at the glenohumeral joint was limited. Progressive limitation in abduction, forward flexion, and external rotation with growth was virtually a constant finding. The acromioclavicular joint was prominent and sometimes had an angular, pointed appearance clinically. This was often associated with atrophic musculature and winging of the scapulae. Limited elbow mobility was common and usually mild in degree. Decreased elbow extension was most often found with decreased flexion, pronation, and supination occurring less frequently. Limited elbow mobility did not change significantly with growth in contrast to the increasing severity observed in the shoulder joint. Short humeri were a constant finding beyond infancy and genua valga of mild degree were present in many cases. Radiographic examination strongly suggests that the Apert syndrome is characterized by a multiple epiphyseal dysplasia. We found delay in appearance of postnatal ossification centers, particularly in the humeral head, greater tuberosity, capitulum, and radial head. Subsequently, these bones became abnormal in shape. Glenoid dysplasia was observed consistently. The neck of the scapula was very short or absent and the inferior margin of the glenoid cavity was poorly demarcated from the infraglenoid tubercle. The humeral head became oblong in shape with relative prominence of the greater tuberosity which compromised abduction. In the elbow, the capitulum was often small and the radial head was flat in many instances. Subluxation or dislocation of the radial head or angulation of the radial neck was observed in some cases. In the hip joint of some adults, the femoral necks were short and broad with prominence of the greater trochanters. Less common radiographic findings are also discussed. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
