ObjectiveTo explore the value of Aquaporin-3 (AQP-3) on the detection of early renal function damage by investigating the expressions of renal AQP-3 mRNA and protein of rats with obstructive jaundice (OJ). MethodsForty mature male Wistar rats were divided into two groups randomly: experimental group (n=20) in which the model of OJ rats was established, and control group (n=20, sham operation group). The levels of serum total bilirubin (TBIL), direct bilirubin (DBIL), creatinine (Cr), and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were detected by fullautomatic biochemical analyzer on 7 d and 14 d after operation. The expressions of renal AQP-3 mRNA and protein of rats were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. ResultsThe levels of serum TBIL and DBIL were significantly higher on 14 d than those on 7 d after operation in experimental group (P=0.000), which were significantly higher than those at corresponding time point in control group (P=0.000), while the difference within control group was not significant (P=0.154). Thus, the OJ models of rats were established successfully. The difference of serum Cr levels of rats between inter-and intragroup were not significant (Pgt;0.05). Serum BUN level on 14 d after operation in experimental group was significantly higher than those on 7 d after operation in experimental group and on 14 d after operation in control group (P=0.001), although serum Cr levels were not different between 7 d and 14 d after operation in control group (P=0.288). The expressions of AQP-3 protein of rats on 7 d and 14 d after operation in experimental group were significantly lower than those at corresponding time point in control group (P=0.033, P=0.000), meanwhile on 14 d after operation in experimental group was significantly lower than those on 7 d after operation in experimental group (P=0.000). The expressions of AQP-3 mRNA of rats on 7 d and 14 d after operation in experimental group were significantly higher than those at corresponding time point in control group (P=0.000), but the difference at different time point in two groups was not significant (P=0.139, P=0.059). ConclusionsThe changes of renal AQP-3 protein and mRNA expressions are prior to the changes of serum Cr and BUN levels of rats suffered from OJ complicated renal function damage, which are promised to improve the early diagnosis rate of renal function damage in rats with OJ.
目的:探讨住院患者急性肾功能衰竭(ARF)的临床病因方法:回顾性分析139例ARF患者的临床资料,探讨其病因、肾衰类型及危险因素。结果:139例ARF患者中,肾前性90例,肾性37例,肾后性12例。其中,60岁以上的老年人73例,占52.5%。引起ARF的根本病因中,感染、心衰及创伤为引起ARF的主要病因。结论:注意有效血容量不足的症状及体征、及时扩容及控制感染可以减少ARF的发生。同时,60岁以上老年人仍是高危人群,应重在预防。
Acute renal failure(ARF) is a serious complication after cardiac surgery. It is an important influential factor of increasing mortality, extending mechanical ventilation time and intensive care unit time, resulting in cognition functional impairment and respiratory function failure et al, and increasing cost of hospitalization. Extracorporeal circulation, intra-aortic balloon pump, renal inadequacy before surgery, diabetes and peripheral vascular disease are all risk factors of ARF after operation. These factors can lead to ARF by constriction of capacitance vessel, filling defect of renal and ischemia-reperfusion injury et al. Appropriate drug treatment, haemodialysis and hemofiltration could protect renal function and improve prognosis of ARF.
目的 分析朱砂莲中毒导致急性肾功能衰竭临床表现、肾脏病理学及相关文献复习。 方法 2007年3月-9月收治朱砂莲中毒急性肾功能衰竭2例,分析临床表现及肾脏病理损害。 结果 朱砂莲急性中毒易致急性肾功能衰竭,危及生命;其主要损害肾小管间质,表现为急性肾小管重度损伤,无炎性细胞浸润,而肾小球几乎无病变。 结论 朱砂莲为我国常使用中药,主要成分为马兜铃酸,易致马兜铃酸肾病,须提高对该病认识,规范使用中草药,避免药物性所致肾损害。Objective To analyze the clinical and pathological manifestations of kidney in patients with ciliatenerve knotweed root-induced acute renal failure. Methods Two patients who were admitted into our hospital for acute renal failure caused by over-dose ciliatenerve knotweed root from March to September in 2007 were included in this study. We analyzed the clinical and pathological manifestations of their kidneys. Results Over-dose ciliatenerve knotweed root could induce acute renal failure, even threaten life. The pathology of kidney is characterized by severe tubular injury,rather than glomerulus damage, without cell infiltration. Conclusions Ciliatenerve knotweed root is one of the frequently-used traditional Chinese medicines in our country, which can easily result in aristolochinc acid nephropathy. We should recognize the importance of this disease and avoid using nephrotoxic drugs.
Experienc of nurtitional treatment to 7 patients with acute renal failure (ARF) and nitrogemia after biliarty (tract) surgery is reported in this article. Nittrogen source inn all cases was obtained from "Renal Amine" and "7% Vamin" etc,which are composed of 8 essential amino acids (EAA), and the nergery sources are mainly supplyed by Intralipid (20 or 10%) and suitable amount of glucose. The nutritional admicture of "all in one" were employed as parenteral nutrition (PN). Satisfactary curative effecs in these patients were obtained. The suthors consider that (a) the nutritional treatment of different casuses of ARF should be providing enough energy and more EAA requirments than in normal need to synthesizw non-essential amino acide (NEAA) and protein from excessive blood urea nitrogen (BUN) for redcuing pritein breakdown and nitrogemia, and (b) 20% Intralipid is an effective low-volume, highly calories nutritional agent specially in ARF patients with restiction of waterr.
