ABSTRACT

It is believed that retention due to deficient qi is an important pathogenesis of endometriosis (EMs). Deficient qi is the root of the disease, mainly manifested as spleen deficiency, while retention is the branch pathogenesis of the disease, mainly with blood stasis, complicated with constraint, phlegm, heat, toxin and other pathological factors. Therefore, it is proposed to follow the treatment principle of supplementing deficiency and unblocking stagnation, and take the methods of replenishing qi and fortifying the spleen, removing stasis and eliminating concretions. Self-made Fuzheng Huayu Formula (扶正化瘀方) is taken as the basic formula, and can be modified with the symptoms in menstrual and non-menstrual periods. Additionally, the methods of moving qi, dispelling phlegm, clearing heat, relieving toxin and others can be combined, and it is recommended to treat the root and the branch simultaneously.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the risk factors related to acute rejection (AR) after pediatric kidney transplantation (KT).Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed for 189 pediatric KT recipients from September 2011 to August 2022.They were divided into two groups of AR (n=33) and non-AR (n=156).Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed for identifying potential risk factors of AR.And the effects of AR on graft function and survival were also examined.Results:During follow-ups, a total of 33(17.5%) patients developed AR with a 1-year cumulative incidence of AR of 16.9%(32/189).Univariate analysis revealed that median time on dialysis was longer in AR group than that in non-AR group (19 vs. 11 months, P=0.034).Median age of donors (12 vs. 24 months, P=0.033), median weight of donors (9.5 vs. 12 kg, P=0.025) and median donor/recipient body weight ratio (0.36 vs. 0.50, P=0.005) were lower in AR group than those in non-AR group.And the proportion of subtherapeutic tacrolimus (TAC) trough level was higher in AR group than that in non-AR group (45.5% vs. 21.2%, P=0.004).Multivariate regression analysis indicated that subtherapeutic TAC trough level was an independent risk factor for AR ( OR=2.977, 95% CI: 1.314-6.743, P=0.009).At the last follow-up, serum creatinine and eGFR were (78.4±24.3) vs. (74.6±24.7) μmol/L and (85.3±26.3) vs. (89.5±24.2) ml·min -1·1.73 m -2 in AR and non-AR groups respectively.There were no significant differences.1/5-year patient survival rate was both 97% in AR group and both 99.4% in non-AR group; 1/5-year graft survival rate both 90.9% in AR group and was 98.1% and 97.4% in non-AR group.No significant inter-group differences existed in patient and graft survival. Conclusions:Although an occurrence of early AR does not negatively impact graft outcomes, the incidence of AR remains high after pediatric KT.Therefore prompt diagnosis and treatment of AR should be strengthened.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To retrospectively summarize the clinical experiences of managing renal artery stenosis after donor kidney transplantation in children.Methods:From January 2018 to October 2021, 114 pediatric kidney transplants(donor/recipient aged <18 years)were performed.According to the findings of color Doppler ultrasonography, they were divided into two groups of normal( n=80)and rapid flow( n=34). Rapid flow group were assigned into symptomatic( n=13)and asymptomatic( n=21)sub-groups based upon clinical features of hypertension and renal instability. Results:Among them, there were 65 males and 49 females.A significant inter-gender difference existed in the proportion of higher arterial flow rate of transplanted kidney(38.5% and 18.4%, P=0.02). No significant difference existed in age or body weight of transplant recipients among all groups( P>0.05). The mean age(10.4 months)and body weight(9 kg)of donors were significantly lower in symptomatic group than those in normal group(65.3 months, 21 kg)and asymptomatic group(64.4 months, 21.2 kg). The mean velocity of symptomatic group was significantly higher than that of asymptomatic group(363.5 vs 228.8 cm/s)( P<0.001). In symptomatic group, 6 cases received medications and their clinical manifestations were completely relieved.Among 7 patients invasively treated, one percutaneous transluminal angioplasty(PTA)was offer once( n=2), twice( n=2)and triple( n=1)with clinical relief and stable renal function.One case of bleeding at puncture site during PTA had treatment failure with a gradual loss of graft function.One ineffective case of PTA was subsequently placed with an endovascular stent.However, repeated stent dilation failed due to restenosis.After surgical exploration, vascular stent removal and transplantation of renal artery clipping, clinical symptoms were relieved. Conclusions:Male recipient, low body weight or young donor may be risk factors for transplant renal artery stenosis(TRAS)during pediatric donor renal transplantation.A higher flow rate of transplanted renal artery on ultrasonography could not confirm the diagnosis of TRAS.Greater arterial flow and associated clinical manifestations often hint at a strong possibility of TRAS, requiring drug or invasive treatment interventions.If PTA efficacy is not satisfactory, multiple treatments should be performed.Nevertheless, stenting should be avoided as far as possible to prevent in-stent restenosis.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, clinical efficacy of pediatric kidney transplantation has been gradually enhanced with persistent progress of organ allocation policy, surgical technologies and perioperative management, etc. However, immunosuppressive management still plays a significant role in the long-term prognosis of pediatric kidney transplant recipients. Due to the disparity from adults in physiology, psychology, immune system and drug metabolism, immunosuppressive management in children should be delivered in a specific manner. Therefore, it is necessary to select appropriate immunosuppresants and formulate individualized immunosuppressive regimens according to the characteristics of pediatric kidney transplant recipients in clinical practice. In this article, the characteristics of immunosuppressive therapy, selection of immunosuppresants, glucocorticoid withdrawal, immune monitoring and medication compliance management of pediatric kidney transplant recipients were investigated, aiming to provide reference for optimizing immunosuppressive management and improving clinical prognosis of pediatric kidney transplant recipients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the protective effect of puerarin on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced acute kidney injury(AKI)in vitro.Methods:HK-2 cells were treated with H/R for simulating ischemia reperfusion injury(IRI)in vivo. The experimental groups included control group, H/R treatment group(0/6/12/24 h), H/R 24 h + puerarin treatment group(puerarin, Pue), H/R 24 h + Pue+ 3-methyladenine(3-MA)treatment group and H/R 24 h+ 3-MA treatment group. Immunoblotting was employed for detecting the expression changes of autophagy-related proteins, CCK-8 for examining cell proliferation, electron microscopy for observing autophagosome formation and TUNEL for detecting apoptosis.Results:As compared with control group, the expression of LC3-II rose in H/R 24 h group, the expression of autophagy marker P62 declined, count of autophagosome increased, cell viability decreased and cellular inflammation occurred. Puerarin had similar effects to 3-MA. As compared with H/R 24 h group, puerarin could reverse the changes in the expression levels of LC3 and P62 induced by H/R( P<0.05). There were greater cell viability, reduced autophagosome count and lessened cell apoptosis( P<0.05). At the same time, protein expression levels of HMGB1, TLR4 and NF-κB dropped( P<0.05). Conclusions:Puerarin suppresses autophagy through HMGB1/TLR4/NF-κB axis for lessening ischemia-reperfusion injury an in vitro model.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the current situation of quality of life and psychological status of pediatric recipients after kidney transplantation and analyze the influencing factors. Methods Ninety-six pediatric recipients undergoing kidney transplantation were enrolled in this study. Baseline data of the recipients were collected. The quality of life was assessed by Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 3.0 (PedsQLTM3.0). The psychological status was evaluated by Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). The influencing factors of postoperative quality of life and psychological status of pediatric kidney transplant recipients were subject to univariate and multivariate analyses. Results The total score of quality of life of pediatric kidney transplant recipients was (71±14) and (12.4±5.8) for the total difficulty score. Univariate analysis showed that gender, postoperative body mass index (BMI) and postoperative complications were the influencing factors of the total score of quality of life of pediatric kidney transplant recipients (all P < 0.05). Gender, postoperative complications and follow-up time were the influencing factors of the total difficulty score of pediatric kidney transplant recipients (all P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that gender, postoperative BMI, postoperative complications, dialysis type before kidney transplantation were the influencing factors of postoperative quality of life of pediatric kidney transplant recipients, whereas gender, postoperative complications and follow-up time were the influencing factors of postoperative psychological status (all P < 0.05). Conclusions The quality of life and psychological status of pediatric kidney transplant recipients are good. In clinical practice, special attention should be paid to those children who are female, with low BMI after kidney transplantation, postoperative complications and short follow-up time. Preventive interventions are recommended to further improve the quality of life of the children.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To report two cases of post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD) after kidney transplantation in children and review the literature, and to improve clinicians' understanding of PTLD in children.Methods:The clinical data of two children with PTLD admitted to the Children's Hospital of Fudan University were collected and analyzed. The PTLD-related literature of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Wanfang, CNKI, Weipu Database and China Biomedical Literature Service System from the establishment of the database to January 2020 were collected for literature review. Multivariate logistic regression analysis method was used to analyze the influencing factors of prognostic in children with PTLD.Results:Both of the patients had negative Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Cytomegalovirus (CMV) before transplantation and anti-thymocyte immunoglobulin (ATG) were induced during transplantation. PTLD in case 1 and case 2 was diagnosed at 3 and 12 months after transplantation, respectively, with positive EBV and CMV serological reaction. The pathological diagnosis was monomorphic PTLD in case 1 and the case 2 was clinically considered as non-hodgkin lymphoma. They all received thrapies of immunosuppressive reduction combined with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody and chemotherapy. PTLD was relieved and graft function was normal in 2 cases, while case 1 died two and half years after transplantation due to intracranial fungal infection. According to the analysis of 56 children (including 2 cases in this study) with PTLD from the literature review, the median time of PTLD from transplantation was 41.8 months. The initial involved organs were digestive tract [17 cases (30.4%)], respiratory system [8 cases (14.3%)], nervous system [7 cases (12.5%)] and pharyngeal lymph ring [7 cases (12.5%)], respectively. The main pathologic type of PTLD was monomorphic [34 cases (60.8%)]. Fifty-six cases were all positive in EBV serological reaction when PTLD was diagnosed. The treatment included immunosuppressive reduction combined with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody and chemotherapy. Forty-eight cases of PTLD were relieved, while 8 cases lost graft function. Eleven cases died, including 3 cases due to infection and the other 8 cases due to PTLD. Multivariate logistic regression showed that monomorphic PTLD was a risk factor of death for PTLD children ( OR=21.616, 95% CI 1.007-464.107, P=0.049). Conclusions:PTLD in children with kidney transplantation is mostly associated with EBV infection, and the clinical manifestations are diverse. Monomorphic PTLD has a poor prognosis and high mortality.

ABSTRACT

As a treatment option for cancer, thermal ablation has satisfactory effects on many types of solid tumors (such as liver and renal cancers). However, its clinical applications for the treatment of thyroid nodules and metastatic cervical lymph nodes are still under debate both in China and abroad. In 2015, the “Zhejiang Expert consensus on thermal ablation for thyroid benign nodules, microcarcinoma, and metastatic cervical lymph nodes (2015 edition),” was released by the Thyroid Cancer Committee of Zhejiang Anti-Cancer Association, China. To further standardize the application of thermal ablation for thyroid tumors, the Thyroid Tumor Ablation Experts Group of Chinese Medical Doctor Association has organized many seminars and finally produced a consensus to formulate the “Expert consensus workshop report: Guidelines for thermal ablation of thyroid tumors (2019 edition).”

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the feasibility and efficacy of kidney transplantation with pediatric donors to pediatric recipients (PTP) according to the quality control parameters of kidney transplantation in China.Methods:From September 2011 to September 2019, the clinical data were reviewed for 147 children undergoing kidney transplantation. The general status of donors and recipients, survival rate and complications of transplantation were analyzed.The median age was 130(21-270) month and the median weight 26.0(8.5-71.5) kg. The median age of 120 donors was 12 month (4 day-180 month) and the median weight 9.3(2.5-50.0) kg.Results:After a follow-up period of 10 days to 9 years, the cumulative survival rates of patients and grafts were 97.3% and 88.8%. The cumulative survival rates of patients and grafts were 95.7% and 60.9% in en bloc kidney transplant recipients versus 96.8% and 94.2% in single kidney transplant recipients. The major complications of en bloc kidney transplantation were graft thrombosis (47.8%) and ureteral complications (17.4%). Single kidney transplantation was characterized by delayed graft function recovery (DGF, 18.6%) and acute rejection reaction (10.5%). Two cases died from donor-derived infection after transplantation, one from cytomegalovirus infection and one from epileptic seizure.Conclusions:PTP kidney transplantation is effective. Organ matching and optimal operative mode selection are essential. Preventing postoperative thrombosis for avoiding an early graft loss has remained a high priority during PTP kidney transplantation.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the application of high-throughput second-generation gene sequencing technology based upon metagenomics in the diagnosis of pulmonary infection after organ transplantation.Methods:From June 2016 to January 2020, clinical records were retrospectively reviewed for 34 renal and liver transplant recipients hospitalized for pulmonary infection. From June 2016 to December 2018, they were assigned as group A (n=20) of traditional pathogen detections. From January 2019 to January 2020, 14 cases in group B were sequenced by high-throughput second-generation technology. The detection rate, sensitivity and specificity, the return time of detection results, the average length of stay and the mortality of 28 days between two groups were analyzed.Results:No significant inter-group difference existed in clinical data (age, gender, antibody induction method, immunosuppressant use, etc.). As compared with group A, the positive detection rate of etiology and the the sensitivity were higher in group B and the differences in specificity were statistically insignificant. The return time of test results in group B was significantly shorter than that in group A. And the difference was statistically significant. The average hospitalization stay and 28-day mortality of group B were lower than those of group A. And the differences were statistically significant.Conclusions:High-throughput second-generation gene sequencing technology can improve the detection rate of pulmonary infection after organ transplantation. Providing a " precise and accurate" direction for disease treatment, it is a useful supplement to traditional diagnostic methods.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe whether treatment with cannabidiol (CBD) affect nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) induced by methionine choline-deficient diet (MCD) in rats and investigate the underlying molecular mechanism. Methods Sixty-three adult male SD rats were randomly divided in to three groups as follows: Control group (rats fed with normal diet), MCD group (rats fed with MCD and MCD+CBD group [rats fed with MCD and treated with cannabidiol, 2mg/(kg.d), i.p.]. Ten weeks later, steatohepatitis and fibrosis were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining, respectively. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels were measured by using an automatic biochemical analyzer and hepatic levels of cholesterol and triacylglycerol were determined with kits. Autophagic flux in livers was evaluated by Western blotting. Results Treatment with cannabidiol reduced ratio of liver/body weightratio (4.2%±0.6% versus 3.1%±0.6%, P<0.05), histological scores (4.7±1.1 versus 2.2±0.5, P<0.05) and fibrosis (1.4%±0.4% versus 0.8%±0.3%, P<0.05) in rat livers, lowered levels of ALT (214.5±54.1U/L versus 92.1±36.0U/L, P<0.05) and AST (175.9±55.2U/L versus 70.8±24.9U/L, P<0.05) in serum, attenuated hepatic fat accumulation (cholesterol, 182.4±42.7mmol/mg protein versus 101.0±33.8mmol/mg protein, P<0.05; triglyceride, 71.4±12.5mmol/mg protein versus 38.7±11.1mmol/mg protein, P<0.05), and down-regulated mRNA expression of Col1A1 (2.9±0.4 versus 1.6±0.3, P<0.05) in livers of rats fed with MCD. Furthermore, cannabidiol led to the LC3 turnover (LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-I, 37.1±10.8 versus 71.2±17.1, P<0.05) and p62 decrease (202.4±40.9 versus 125.8±32.7, P<0.05) in the livers of MCD-fed rats. Conclusion Treatment with cannabidiol could relieve MCD-induced NASH in rats, at least in part, by autophagic flux promotion.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the role of integrin CD11b in liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and its possible mechanism.Method CD11b-/-and WT (C57BL/6) mice were used to establish a 70% liver warm I/R by clamping the left and median liver lobes for 60 min with vascular micro clamp at 37℃,then the clamp was removed and the abdominal incision was sutured.The blood plasma and liver samples were obtained at different time points (1,3,6,12,24 and 48 h) postreperfusion to assess liver function and cellular injury.Serum ALT and AST levels were determined,and HE staining and TUNEL assay were performed to estimate the severity of liver damage.Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) were assayed by Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Kupffer cells were isolated from the live,and the reduced form of nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase activity and active oxygen species (ROS) production were assayed.Result CD11b-/-mice displayed a significantly preserved liver function as represented by lower alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartic transaminase (AST) levels,less histological damage and apoptosis compared to WT mice.Furthermore,TNF-α was decreased and IL-10 mRNA expression was increased in CD11b-/-mice compared to WT mice.Finally,CD11b-/-mice showed decreased activity of NADPH oxidase and less ROS production.Conclusion Integrin CD11 b may regulate the levels of inflammatory (TNF-α) and anti-inflammatory (IL-10) cytokines,enhance the activity of NADPH oxidase in Kupffer cells and enrich the production of ROS,which aggravate liver I/R injury.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the therapeutic principle of en-bloc kidney and single kidney transplantation from pediatric donors to pediatric recipients.Method A retrospective analysis of 11 pediatric kidney transplants into pediatric recipients was performed.The age of donors and recipients was 33 days to 48 months,and (9.1 ± 3.4) years (4.6 14.3 years) respectively.Result During the follow-up period of 1 to 22 months,the patient survival rate was 100%.Complications included delayed graft function in 1 case (managed by peritoneal dialysis),urine leak in 2 cases (treated by reoperation),hydronephrosis in 2 cases (treated by extracting ureteral catheter) and vascular thrombosis in 1 case.Due to thrombosis,one graft was lost.Of the remaining 10 recipients,all had excellent long-term function.At the last follow-up,their serum creatinine levels were 65.5 ±13.6 μmol/L (49-83μmol/L),and transplanted renal ultrasound examination showed no abnormality.Conclusion Kidney grafts from pediatric donors can be successfully transplanted to pediatric recipients,but the therapeutic principle is different from that in adult kidney transplantation.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the clinical application of HLA donor specific antibodies (DSAs) detected by Luminex single antigen beads,and to discuss the impact of early intervention on renal function.Method In 64 cases of living-relative renal transplantation,DSA was detected using a Luminex single antigen assay before and after transplantation.The positive recipients were given large doses of intravenous irnmunoglobulin (IVIG) and increased doses of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF).The relationship between DSA and renal function was analyzed.Result DSA was negative in all recipients before transplantation.Ten cases of DSA positive recipients were found in HLA mismatch after transplantation.After the intervention,two cases of DSA positive recipients became negative,immunofluorescence intensity was decreased by more than 50% in 6 cases,and no significant reduction was found in the other two cases.Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) occurred in two cases of intervention ineffective recipients after 3 to 6 months and the renal function was impaired.Conclusion Dynamic monitoring of DSA using Luminex single antigen beads may timely predict changes of renal function.Early application of large doses of IVIG and increasing doses of MMF can reduce the incidence of AMR.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate correlation between microRNA (miR-494) and TH 17 cell differentiation in murine cervical heterotopic cardiac transplant model.Method The heterotopic cardiac transplant models of Balb/c→C57BL/6 mice were established as experimental group,and those of C57BL/6→C57BL/6 mice as control group.Real time-polymerase chain reaction(PCR) was used to detect miR-494 and interleukin(IL)-17A mRNA expression in the grafts.CD4+ T cells,CD8+ T cells and CD45+ myeloid cells were isolated from the grafts,and miR-494 and IL-17 mRNA expression was detected.In vitro,lymphocytes in the spleen from C57BL/6 mice were harvested,and CD4+ T cells were isolated with MACS and then stimulated to TH 1,TH 2,TH 17,Treg subset cells.The expression of IL-17A mRNA and miR-494 in different T subsets was examined by Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Result Two grafts from each study group were harvested on the 7th day post-transplantation.In experimental group,the IL-17A mRNA expression was increased,while the expression of miR-494 was decreased as compared with control group with the difference being significant between two groups.The expression of IL-17A rnRNA in CD4+ T cells of the grafts was significantly increased,while that expression of miR-494 was decreased.In vitro,the expression of miR-494 in TH 17 cells was significantly lower than that in TH 1,TH 2 and Treg cells.Conclusion miR-494 is related closely to TH 17 cells differentiation in the transplant rejection,which may play a role in transplant rejection through regulating TH 17 cells.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate whether the pretreatment of SS31 could alleviate hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced injury by inhibiting p66Shc.Method The cultured rat renal proximal tubular cell line NRK52E cells were exposed to 24-h hypoxia (5% CO2,1% O2,and 94% N2) followed by 6-h reoxygenation (5% CO2,21% O2,and 74% N2).SS31 was added to the culture medium 4 h prior to the treatment.Then the cell viability,apoptosis,ROS and MTP were determined.In addition,Western blotting was used to detect the expression of p66Shc and p-p66Shc.Result H/R induced apoptotic cell death,accompanied with activation of total and p-p66Shc in NRK52E cells.Total p66Shc and p-p66Shc were detected at low levels in control NRK52E cells,and their levels were dramatically increased in cells after H/R treatment.Pretreatment with 100 μmol/L SS31 significantly prevented cell death and attenuated total p66Shc and p-p66Shc levels after H/R.Conclusion This study revealed that SS31 pretreatment serves a protective role against H/R-induced apoptosis of human renal tubular epithelial cells by suppressing p66Shc.
