RESUMO

Objective·To explore the changes of pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity and pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 (PDK4) expression in the end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients' skeletal muscles. Methods·Skeletal muscle samples were collected from non-chronic kidney disease (non-CKD) patients and ESRD patients. PDH activity was detected by ELISA assay. Real-time qPCR was performed to examine gene transcription levels of PDK1-PDK4 and PDH subunits.Western blotting analysis was used to detect protein expression levels of PDK1 and PDK4. Results·There were no demographic differences between two groups of patients. Plasma creatinine and urea nitrogen were significantly elevated in ESRD group (both P<0.05), while estimated glomerular filtration rate, hemoglobin and plasma albumin in ESRD group were significantly lower than those in non-CKD group (all P<0.05).Skeletal muscle PDH activity in ESRD group was markedly lower than that in non-CKD group(P=0.014).There were no differences in PDK1-PDK4 and PDH subunits mRNA transcription levels between ESRD and non-CKD group.PDK4 protein expression was significantly higher than that in non-CKD group (P=0.000). Conclusion·The decreased PDH activity in ESRD patients' skeletal muscle may be related to up-regulation of PDK4.

RESUMO

Objective · To assess volume status in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods · Body composition analysis was performed on 128 MHD patients from Renji Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine.The volume status was assessed based on body composition data and predialysis systolic blood pressure (preBPsys),edema grade,brain natriuretic peptide (BNP).Patients were divided into hyperhydrated group (percentage of hydration status,HS%> 15%) or normohydrated group (HS% ≤ 15%).Body composition data were compared,including lean tissue index (LTI) and fat tissue index (FTI).The blood pressure,edema grade,serum calcium,serum phosphate,intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH),hemoglobin,albumin,pre-albumin,hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),serum sodium,and urea clearance Kt/V were compared between two groups.Results · Sixtynine patients were normohydrated and preBPsys reached target;10 patients were overhydrated with higher preBPsys;18 patients had overhydration but preBPsys was in target range.Compared to normohydraed group,patients in hyperhydmted group had more obvious edema,higher BNP level,significantly lower LTI,serum albumin and pre-albumin levels,while serum sodium was significantly higher (P<0.05).Conclusion· Volume status of hemodialysis patients can be objectively and accurately assessed by body composition analysis using bioimpedance technique with blood pressure,edema grade and biochemical parameters.Hyperhydrated patients may have higher serum sodium level,lower serum albumin,lower hemoglobin,and less lean tissue mass concomitantly.Sodium intake control,nutrition status improvement,and anemia correction may be useful to reduce hyperhydration.

RESUMO

Objective To evaluate the solute clearance characteristics of REXEEDTM series dialyzers during high-flux dialysis, and explore the care characteristics. Methods A randomized crossover study of 3×3 Latin square was designed based on different dialyzers. Eighteen patients with regular hemodialysis underwent dialysis with REXEEDTM-15AC dialyzer, REXEEDTM-15UC dialyzer and controlled APS-15U dialyzer, respectively. Blood samples were obtained from the blood flow entrance and exit of dialyzers, levels of urea nitrogen, creatinine, phosphate and β2-microglobulin were detected, and solute clearance rates were calculated. Before and after the third dialysis with each dialyzer, blood samples were obtained to measure the levels of urea nitrogen and creatinine, and the rates of decrease were calculated. The vital signs of each patient were intensively observed, and the venous pressure and transmembrane pressure were monitored from the dialyzers. Results The urea nitrogen clearance rates of REXEEDTM-15AC dialyzer and REXEEDTM-15UC dialyzer were significantly higher than that of APS-15U dialyzer (P<0.05). The creatinine clearance rate of REXEEDTM-15AC dialyzer was significantly higher than that of APS-15U dialyzer(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the rate of decrease in blood urea nitrogen among different dialyzers of the same patient(>65 % for all patients). The vital signs were stable with no adverse events during dialysis, and there was no abnormal findings in laboratory security parameters. Conclusion REXEEDTM series dialyzers are effective and safe for clinical application. Great importance should be attached to the complaints from patients during dialysis. For those with less ultrafiltration, fluid as well as uhrafiltration should be supplemented to increase the transmembrane pressure.

RESUMO

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Patients with sliding hiatus hernia (HH) and reflux esophagitis (RE) usually suffer from esophageal dysmotility. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of acid reflux and duodenal gastroesophageal reflux (DGER), esophageal manometry, and esophageal dysmotility by applying the barium meal examination.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>RE with HH was initially diagnosed using the reflux disease questionnaire, and was further confirmed by a barium meal examination and an endoscopy. The radiographic technique was used to test for spasms, strictures, and the coarseness of the mucosa, also was to study the types of reflux and clearance. Then, the esophageal manometry, the esophageal 24-hour pH, and the bilirubin monitoring were observed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Fifty-five patients were diagnosed as HH combined with RE and divided into two groups according to the severity of their esophagitis: group HH1 (grades A and B) and group HH2 (grades C and D). The barium meal examination revealed that the mucosa was either granular or nodular in all cases. The dump reflux and delayed clearance were more significant in patients in the HH2 group than those in the HH1 group (P < 0.05). The percentages of total, supine, and upright acid exposure time were greater in patients with HH than those in the control group (P < 0.01), but the differences between the HH1 and the HH2 groups were not significant. Lower esophageal sphincter pressure (LESP) was lower in the HH group than in the control group (P < 0.05). Three DGER parameters: the percentage of time with absorbance greater than 0.14, the number of bile reflux episodes, the number of bile refluxes lasting longer than 5 minutes were (28.43 +/- 23.34), (40.57 +/- 31.30), and (15.15 +/- 8.72), respectively in the HH2 group; these statistics were significantly higher than those for the HH1 (P < 0.05). The frequency and amplitude of peristalsis were all lower in HH patients than in the control (P < 0.05). Of all the patients, 54.3% (30 of 55) with acid reflux and DGER simultaneously in the HH group exhibited refluxes of barium from the stomach to the esophagus in the recumbent position, and 29.4% (5 in 17) with delayed clearance in the HH group were correlated with esophageal body peristalses. The result was that the frequency and amplitude of peristalsis were less and the duration of esophageal peristalsis was longer than those of control group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Esophageal dysmotility may play an important role in the severity of RE combined with HH. Esophageal motility results on a barium examination may coincide with esophageal manometry, 24-hour pH, and bilirubin monitoring in the RE and HH, but the radiologic method was the simplest to apply.</p>
