目的:探讨2型糖尿病(T2DM)患者不同脂质参数与糖尿病肾病(DKD)发生的相关性。方法:检测226例T2DM患者血清TC、TG、LDL-C、HDL-C水平及相关生化指标,计算血浆致动脉硬化指数(AIP)以及脂质三角相关指标(TC/HDL-C、TG/HDL-C、LDL-C/HDL-C)。根据DKD临床诊断标准和Mogensen分期标准分为:Ⅰ~Ⅱ期组136例,Ⅲ期组55例,Ⅳ~Ⅴ期组35例。应用多因素logistic回归分析不同脂质参数与DKD发生的关系。结果:与Ⅰ~Ⅱ期组相比,随着DKD分期加重,TC、TG、LDL-C、LDL-C/HDL-C、AIP水平明显增高(P<0.01)。LDL-C/HDL-C和AIP与24 h尿蛋白水平呈正相关(r=0.724;r=0.769,均P<0.05)。LDL-C/HDL-C和AIP是T2DM合并DKD患者的独立预测因子(P=0.002;P=0.004)。结论:LDL-C/HDL-C和AIP对T2DM合并DKD病情进展有较高的预测价值,可为临床诊治提供参考。     

Endogenous motion of liver correlates to the severity of portal hypertension

BACKGROUND Degree of portal hypertension(PH) is the most important prognostic factor for the decompensation of liver cirrhosis and death, therefore adequate care for patients with liver cirrhosis requires timely detection and evaluation of the presence of clinically significant PH(CSPH) and severe PH(SPH). As the most accurate method for the assessment of PH is an invasive direct measurement of hepatic venous pressure gradient(HVPG), the search for non-invasive methods to diagnose these conditions is actively ongoing.AIM To evaluate the feasibility of parameters of endogenously induced displacements and strain of liver to assess degree of PH.METHODS Of 36 patients with liver cirrhosis and measured HVPG were included in the casecontrol study. Endogenous motion of the liver was characterized by derived parameters of region average tissue displacement signal(dantero, dretro, d RMS) and results of endogenous tissue strain imaging using specific radiofrequency signal processing algorithm. Average endogenous strain μ and standard deviation σ of strain were assessed in the regions of interest(ROI)(1 cm × 1 cm and 2 cm × 2 cm in size) and different frequency subbands of endogenous motion(0-10 Hz and 10-20 Hz).RESULTS Four parameters showed statistically significant(P 0.05) correlation with HVPG measurement. The strongest correlation was obtained for the standard deviation of strain(estimated at 0-10 Hz and 2 cm × 2 cm ROI size). Three parameters showed statistically significant differences between patient groups with CSPH, but only dretro showed significant results in SPH analysis. According to ROC analysis area under the curve(AUC) of the σROI[0…10 Hz, 2 cm × 2 cm] parameter reached 0.71(P = 0.036) for the diagnosis of CSPH; with a cut-off value of 1.28 μm/cm providing 73% sensitivity and 70% specificity. AUC for the diagnosis of CSPH for μROI[0…10 Hz, 1 cm × 1 cm] was 0.78(P = 0.0024); with a cut-off value of 3.92 μm/cm providing 73% sensitivity and 80% specificity. Dretro parameter had an AUC of 0.86(P = 0.0001) for the diagnosis of CSPH and 0.84(P = 0.0001) for the diagnosis of SPH. A cut-off value of-132.34 μm yielded 100% sensitivity for both conditions, whereas specificity was 80% and 72% for CSPH and SPH respectively.CONCLUSION The parameters of endogenously induced displacements and strain of the liver correlated with HVPG and might be used for non-invasive diagnosis of PH.

Relationship of "bleeding on probing" and "gingival index bleeding" as clinical parameters of gingival inflammation

Abstract Bleeding on probing (BOP) and the gingival index have been used to clinically characterize the degree of gingival inflammation. It is, however, unclear to what extent these parameters correlate to each other and to probing pocket depth (PD). The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate the association between BOP and GI bleeding (scores of 2 and 3), as well as the relationship of these variables to PD, in a group of patients presenting with naturally-occurring gingivitis. Based on screening examinations of 125 subjects with at least 20 teeth, no more than 4 sites with PD over 6 mm, a BOP frequency of 30% or greater, and no systemic condition that would influence the inflammatory response, were selected. 2 weeks after screening they were examined at 6 sites per tooth for plaque index, GI, PD and BOP. A standardized pressure sensitive probe (Florida Probe) with 20 g probing force was used for BOP and PD measurements. In this population, means of 40.9% (S.E.= 1.36) BOP sites and 35.3% (S.E, = 1.81) GI bleeding sites per patient were found. A total of 20,008 sites ranging in PD up to 5.9 mm were evaluated; however, the majority of sites (19,723, 98.6%) presented with <4 mm PD. When sites were evaluated, BOP demonstrated a positive correlation with PD, whereas GI bleeding correlated with PH. For sites characterized by the absence of BOP as well as the absence of GI bleeding (scores 0 and 1), the highest % of agreement between the 2 indices (77.7%) was found in shallow sites (0.1–2 mm). In contrast, when sites presenting with both BOP and GI bleeding were analyzed, the highest % of agreement (85,4%) was found for sites with PD >4.0 mm. In this gingivitis population group, it appears that BOP and GI bleeding evaluate distinct inflammatory1 conditions of the gingival tissues, and the relationship between the 2 clinical parameters may vary according to PD at the individual site examined.

The value of different resistance parameters in distinguishing biopsy-proved dysfunction of renal allografts

The data concerning the value of duplex sonography in diagnosingparenchymatous renal allograft dysfunction are controversial.Most early studies did not take into consideration the manyfactors influencing resistance parameters. We therefore performeda prospective, biopsy-controlled study with exclusion of allknown sources of error regarding resistance parameters. Furthermorewe investigated the value of a new resistance parameter, thesystolic deceleration percentage. Forty-seven duplex sonographicstudies were performed on 43 patients (30 male, 13 female, medianage 47 years, range 7–70). Fourteen studies were doneon normally functioning grafts (control group) an average of33 days after transplantation. Thirty-three studies were performedon dysfunctional grafts immediately prior to biopsy. Graftswhich had been transplanted more than a year previously or withvascular findings or any other clinical or sonographic pathologyprobably explaining function deterioration were excluded. Inall patients, the resistive index (RI), pulsatility index (PI)and systolic deceleration percentage (DP) were calculated inthe main renal artery and in the interlobar artery. Of the 33grafts with dysfunction, nine had vascular rejection (VR), 11interstitial rejection (IR), 11 cyclosporin A toxicity (CAT)and two other histologies (OR). The mean RI in normal grafts(NO) was 0.71±0.06 in the main artery and 0.68±0.06in the interlobar artery, in VR 0.86±0.12 and 0.80±0.18,in IR 0.72±0.05 and 0.70±0.07, in CAT 0.67±0.06and 0.65±0.07 and in OR 0.64±0.07 and 0.60±0.01.For PI, the values were 1.45±0.23 and 1.41±0.28(NO), 3.5±2.13 and 2.92±2.16 (VR), 1.55±0.26and 1.46±0.33 (IR), 1.32±0.25 and 1.27±0.26(CAT) and 1.30±0.34 and 1.13±0.04 (OR). For DPwe calculated 28±5% and 29±6% (NO), 43±14%and 36±6% (VR), 29±9% and 27±9% (IR), 31±8%and 32±7% (CAT ) and 32±4% and 28±3% (OR).The sensitivity/specificity for VR with a cutoff mean+2 SD was0.44/1 for RI, 0.55/0.97 for PI and 0.33/0.89 for DP. It wasconcluded that:(1) despite the high selection of our patientgroup, diagnostic accuracy of duplex sonography for diagnosingparenchymatous function disorder in renal allograft remainsinsufficient; (2) in vascular rejection only, the resistanceparameters differ significantly from the values of normal allografts;(3) the higher the cutoff of resistance parameters, the betterthe specificity and the worse the sensitivity for diagnosingvascular rejection; (4) of all investigated resistance parameters,the RI is the most practical due to a simple measurement technique.     

Population kinetics of gentamicin in neonates

A population kinetic analysis was carried out on sparse plasma gentamicin (GE) concentration data from 469 neonates obtained as part of a routine therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) programme in the hospital neonatology unit.The best predictors of the kinetic parameters of the monoexponential model, volume of distribution (Vd) and clearance (CL), were the weight (WT) and gestational age (GA). Vd of the neonates was only related to WT, whereas the half-life was only related to the GA.     

Pharmacokinetic characteristics and tolerability of a novel intravenous immunoglobulin preparation

In two independent trials 10 and 12 healthy volunteers received the novel intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) preparations BT 511 and BT 507, respectively. BT 511 contains 5 g human plasma proteins per 100 ml, more than 95% of which are immunoglobulins of the G class (IgG). BT 507 contains in addition 61 IU antibody against hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs)·ml^–1. In trial I volunteers received 4.0 ml/kg (n+4) and 8.0 ml·kg^–1 (n+6) BT 511 to study the tolerability and the magnitude of the increase in immunoglobulins in plasma as well as their decline over 1 month. After administration of the lower dose, plasma IgG increased from 10.7 to 14.7 g·l^–1 directly after the infusion. Following the 8.0 ml·kg^–1 dose a more pronounced increase from 12.4 to 21.2 g·l^–1 was observed. No adverse events occurred. After 1 month IgG concentrations had almost reached baseline values at 12.2 g·l^–1 in the 4.0 ml·kg^–1 group, but were still significantly increased at 15.2 g·l^–1 after the high dose. There was a linear correlation between the maximal IgG plasma concentration and the subsequent decline of IgG during the 29-day observation period. After administration of BT 507 maximal anti-HBs concentrations of 1778 mU·ml^–1 occurred 1.4 h after termination of the infusion. The terminal elimination half-life was 22.4 days, and total clearance and volume of distribution were determined to be 0.122 ml·min^–1 and 5.41, respectively. The pharmacokinetic parameters calculated for anti-HBs as an indicator of IgG were in accordance with the pharmacokinetic behaviour of native IgG.
