妊娠早期糖化血红蛋白联合PAPP-A对妊娠期糖尿病的预测意义

目的:探讨妊娠早期血清学指标糖化血红蛋白(glycohemoglobin,HbA1c)联合妊娠相关血浆蛋白A(pregnancy-associated plasma protein A,PAPP-A)对妊娠期糖尿病(gestational diabetes mellitus,GDM)的预测意义。方法:随机选取2018年12月1日-2019年7月30日孕11~13+6周于我院门诊产检的妊娠妇女,进行临床资料采集并记录妊娠早期(11~13+6周)空腹血糖(fasting plasma glucose,FPG)、HbA1c、PAPP-A中位数倍数(multiple of the median,MoM)水平,根据孕24~28周进行的75 g口服葡萄糖耐量试验(oral glucose tolerance test,OGTT)结果将研究对象分为研究组和对照组,统计分析妊娠早期血清学指标预测GDM的最佳截断值并得出最适宜的联合预测方案。结果:多因素Logistic回归分析显示,高水平FPG和HbA1c、低水平PAPP-A、受孕方式采用辅助生殖技术、有家族糖尿病史以及妊娠早期体质量指数(BMI)为超重或肥胖均是GDM发生的独立危险因素。有糖尿病家族史和使用辅助生殖技术受孕发生GDM的风险显著增高(OR分别为7.206和47.512,均P<0.001)。分析不同预测指标的受试者工作特征(receiver operating characteristic,ROC)曲线及曲线下面积(area under the curve,AUC)显示,PAPP-A MoM联合HbA1c及FPG诊断时AUC最大(0.728),其后依次为PAPPA MoM联合HbA1c(0.721)、HbA1c联合FPG(0.717),均大于HbA1c(0.707)和FPG(0.647),而PAPP-A MoM的AUC为0.380,对GDM没有诊断意义。结论:具有高风险因素的孕妇,推荐在妊娠早期联合检测HbA1c与PAPPA MoM,以早期预测GDM。     

Perioperative management of diabetes

Diabetes is a complex, chronic metabolic disorder affecting approximately 9.3% of the adult population with the estimated number of adults with diabetes worldwide having more than tripled since 2000. This increase has largely been attributed to global urbanization and lifestyle changes. Diabetes affects 10–15% of the surgical population. These patients are frequently elderly, have complex medical co-morbidities and present for both high-risk elective and emergency surgery. This multisystem disease poses a significant challenge to both anaesthesia and surgery with patients with diabetes demonstrating higher morbidity and mortality rates compared to their non-diabetic counterparts. It is crucial that good glycaemic control is maintained throughout the perioperative period as this has been shown to correlate with positive patient outcomes. It is well-recognized that a co-ordinated, multidisciplinary approach aimed at optimizing every point in the patient pathway from GP referral to post-discharge care is required to obtain the best outcomes for the surgical patient with diabetes. The anaesthetist has a key role in the perioperative diabetes multidisciplinary team. Patients themselves are well experienced in manging their own diabetes and should be involved in doing so whenever possible.     

Content of HSP70 in rats with hereditary stress-induced arterial hypertension

Sensitivity of normotensive Wistar rats and NISAG rats (with hereditary arterial hypertension) to heat stress is compared at the organism and cell levels. High temperature sensitivity of NISAG rats correlates with a low content of the main heat shock protein HSP70. This relationship can serve as a biochemical marker of predisposition to arterial hypertension.

筋膜间隔综合征的高压氧治疗与血浆纤粘素变化的关系

本文首次报道采用253kPa的高压氧治疗24例创伤后筋膜间隔综合征(PACS)病人并采用免疫单扩散法检测了治疗前后血浆纤粘素(FN)的变化与预后的关系。30例健康人作为血浆FN的对照组。结果表明:16例早期PACS病人,经3～5次高压氧治疗,症状和体征逐渐好转,无1例作筋膜切开减压。6例筋膜切开减压后行高压氧治疗者,水肿、炎症消退,体温降低,临床症状好转。2例坏死期PACS虽然临床症状好转,但效果差。高压氧治疗后,病人血浆FN显著高于治疗前。分别较治疗前高43(18.9％;P<0.01)、61(24.7％;P<0.01)、49(17.2％;P<0.01)、57(17.4％;P<0.05)和55mg/L(16.6％;P<0.05)。根据本组研究的结果,提示高压氧是治疗早期PACS的有效非手术疗法和筋膜减压后有效辅助疗法。

Differentiation of Helicobacter pylori isolates by polymerase chain reaction—restriction fragment length polymorphism

Objective: To investigate the association between the diversity of urease gene and urease activity of clinical isolates of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). Methods: Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) of urease gene and rapid urease activity test were used to study the urease activity of different clinical isolates of H. pylori. Results: H. pylori clinical isolates were divided into 4 types according to their PCR-RFLP results of urease gene and urease activity. Type Ⅰ , possessing strong urease activity (0. 11) and presented 1 fragment of 1. 7 kb by PCR-RFLP, had close relations with gastric ulcer; type Ⅱ , with the weakest urease activity (0. 07) and 2 fragments (1. 3 and 0. 4 kb respectively) , was associated with duodenal bulb ulcer; type Ⅲ , with the strongest urease activity (0. 12) and 2 fragments (0. 4 and 0. 17 kb) with or without 1 fragment (0. 23 or 0. 37 kb) , was responsible for gastritis; type Ⅳ , with weak urease activity (0. 09) and 2 fragments     

Clinical experience with the use of rhG‐CSF in secondary autoimmune neutropenia

This paper outlines the impact of granulocyte‐colony stimulating factor (G‐CSF) used as a single modality therapy in 17 patients with secondary autoimmune neutropenia (S‐AIN) who had been treated a multiple number of times previously. Fifteen of these patients had demonstrable antineutrophil antibodies and two had cellular S‐AIN with haemopoietic inhibitory T‐cells present in the marrow. Prior to treatment, all had had problems with infection. All patients responded within 7 days of commencement of treatment. Provided G‐CSF neutrophil counts were maintained above 1 × 10⁹/l, no further infections occurred. This was achievable by using G‐CSF administered as infrequently as once every 8 days. Eight of the 17 patients remained on G‐CSF, although five switched to the glycosylated form because of side‐effects. None have developed osteoporosis despite 47.29 patient years of total experience with G‐CSF. In conclusion both glycosylated and nonglycosylated G‐CSF can be used effectively in treating AIN on a long‐term basis.

Fibronectin inhibits endocytosis of calcium oxalate crystals by renal tubular cells

BACKGROUND: Fibronectin (FN; 230 kDa) is a multifunctional alpha2-glycoprotein distributed throughout the extracellular matrix and body fluids. We recently reported that FN has a protective effect against injury of renal tubular cells by exposure to oxalate and calcium oxalate (CaOX) crystals and inhibits the adhesion of CaOX crystals to renal tubular cells. In the study presented here, we investigated whether FN has inhibitory effect on crystal endocytosis by renal tubular cells. METHODS: The inhibitory effect of FN on endocytosis of CaOX crystals by MDCK cells was examined by using a radioactivity uptake assay. Also, crystal endocytosis by cells was morphologically assessed by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). RESULTS: FN had inhibitory effects on CaOX crystal endocytosis by MDCK cells. The morphological TEM study showed that few crystals were taken into cells when FN was added compared to the number of crystals when FN was not added. CONCLUSION: We found that FN had the inhibitory effects on the interaction between crystals and renal tubular cells, including the adhesion or endocytosis of crystals by cells.
