肾移植术后肝细胞生长因子的动态监测及临床意义

目的:探讨肝细胞生长因子(HGF)在急性排斥反应的早期诊断、鉴别诊断中的意义。方法:采用双抗体夹心酶联免疫吸附法,对50例肾移植受者血清HGF水平在手术前后进行动态监测。观察肾移植术后发生急性排斥反应(AR)、急性肾小管坏死(ATN)、环孢素(CsA)中毒时血清HGF的变化。结果:术前组HGF水平与对照组相比有统计学意义(P<0.05)。稳定组术后前3天HGF下降明显,2周左右降至对照组水平。AR组在典型症状出现及血Cr升高前1~3d,HGF即有升高,且峰值出现在抗排斥治疗的当天。经甲基泼尼松龙冲击后AR逆转者HGF迅速下降。ATN组HGF升高,与AR组相比有统计学意义(P<0.05)。CsA中毒组HGF水平升高,与AR相比有统计学意义(P<0.05),但与ATN组相比无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论:动态监测HGF可能作为急性排斥反应的早期诊断敏感指标,并且对ATN、CsA中毒的鉴别诊断也具有一定临床应用价值。

Outcome analysis of retroperitoneal laparoscopic heminephrectomy in children

PURPOSE: Retroperitoneal laparoscopic heminephrectomy is a relatively new, well tolerated, minimally invasive alternative to open surgery for children with a nonfunctioning moiety in a duplex kidney. We collected data to assess outcomes in our experience with this procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data were retrospectively gathered on all patients operated on for retroperitoneal laparoscopic heminephrectomy at our institution between February 2001 and November 2004. Followup ultrasound was performed in all patients, and additional imaging was done only when clinically indicated. RESULTS: Retroperitoneal laparoscopic heminephrectomy was performed in 18 girls and 4 boys (18 upper and 5 lower pole moieties). Indications included ureterocele (12 patients), ectopic ureter (9) and vesicoureteral reflux (5). Mean age at surgery was 5 years (range 4 months to 18 years). Four patients required conversion to an open procedure due to inadequate exposure and were excluded from further review. Urine leaks developed postoperatively in 3 patients and were treated with Foley catheter drainage and/or stent placement. Two patients were noted to have large (more than 5 cm) asymptomatic retroperitoneal fluid collections on followup ultrasound. Functional loss of the remaining ipsilateral moiety was confirmed by DMSA scan in 2 children (ages 6 and 7 months). Doppler studies confirmed normal hilar blood flow in both cases. Clinical presentation for this subgroup included fever on postoperative day 3 in 1 patient and hypertension at 32 months postoperatively in 1. Mean followup was 33 months (range 3 to 56). CONCLUSIONS: Although retroperitoneal laparoscopic renal ablative surgery in children appears to be relatively safe and is associated with low morbidity, serious complications may occur with subtle or even late presentation.     

Role of mitotic, pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic factors in human kidney development

The expression pattern of mitotic Ki-67 and anti-apoptotic bcl-2 proteins, as well as apoptotic caspase-3 and p53 proteins, were investigated in the human mesonephros and metanephros of 5–9 week-old human conceptuses. Apoptotic cells were additionally detected using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) nick-end labelling (TUNEL) method. Between the 5th and 7th developmental weeks Ki-67, caspase-3 and TUNEL-positive cells characterized all mesonephric structures, indicating importance of cell proliferation in the growth of the mesonephros and role of apoptosis in nephrogenesis. From the 7th week on, p53 and bcl-2 positive cells appeared in the mesonephros as well. Regressive changes in the mesonephros could be regulated by activation of p53, while bcl-2 could contribute to selective survival of some tubules giving rise to adult structures. In the early human metanephros (5–7 weeks), Ki-67 positive cells characterized all metanephric structures, indicating a role of cell proliferation in branching of the ureteric bud and in nephron formation. During the same period bcl-2, caspase-3 and TUNEL-positive cells were found only in the metanephric mesenchyme and nephrons. Bcl-2 protein probably protected nephrons from apoptosis, while caspase-3 protein controlled cell death in the mesenchyme. At later stages (7–9-weeks), appearance of p53-expressing cells could participate in further morphogenesis of the metanephric collecting system. The factors investigated had a spatially and temporally restricted pattern of appearance in developing kidneys. Changes in that pattern might lead to serious disturbances of kidney formation and function in early childhood.     

Urinary creatinine excretion and protein/creatinine ratios vary by body size and gender in children

Urinary protein/creatinine ratio (Up/cr) is a simple measurement for evaluation of proteinuria. However, exact effects of body size and gender on urinary excretion of creatinine and Up/cr remain unknown. We aimed to clarify their effects. Early morning urine samples were collected from 124 children with urinary tract disorders. Urinary hourly excretion of creatinine, Ucr (in milligrams per hour), urinary hourly excretion of protein per body surface area, Up (milligrams per square meter per hour), and Up/cr (milligrams per milligram) were calculated. Effects of gender, age, body height, body weight and body surface area on Ucr and Up/cr were analyzed, respectively, in a multiple linear regression model. Body surface area and gender affected Ucr (r²=0.842, P<0.0001). Ucr adjusted by body surface area increased as body surface area grew with moderate variation. Up/cr showed a close correlation with Up and was affected by body height and gender as well. The regression equation showed that Up/cr values corresponding to the normal upper limit of Up, i.e., 4 mg/m²/h, in boys and girls 170 cm tall were approximately one third of those in children 80 cm tall (0.121 vs 0.043 for boys, 0.132 vs 0.047 for girls). The present study indicates that estimation of Up/cr needs to include consideration of children’s body height and gender.
