ABSTRACT

Objective: To explore the value of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) for early diagnosis of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary angiography (CAG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: From May 2015 to January 2016, 506 consecutive patients who underwent CAG or PCI in our hospital were enrolled in this prospective study. Patients were divided into CIN group (n=47) and non-CIN group (n=459). Clinical and interventional data were compared between the two groups. Spearman ranking correlation coefficient was used to define the relation between NGAL and CIN, and multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identif independent predictors of CIN. Receiver-operator characteristic (ROC) curve was generated, and area under the curve (AUC) was calculated and sensitivity and specificity for CIN diagnosis were analyzed. Results: (1) Basic clinical and interventional data including age, incidence of diabetes, hypertension and chronic heart failure, level of systolic blood pressure, serum creatine before procedure, use of isotonic contrast agent, contrast volume, Mehran score, operation time, treatment number of coronary artery, hydration and medication were all similar between two groups (all P>0.05). (2) Urinary NAGL level at 24 and 48 h after procedure, serum creatinine (Scr) level at 48 h after procedure, and ΔNGAL24-0 h were significantly higher in CIN group than in non-CIN group (all P<0.01), but the differences of urinary NGAL level before procedure, Scr level 24 h after procedure, and ΔNGAL48-24 h were similar between two groups (all P>0.05). (3)The positive correlation was found by Spearman ranking correlation between ΔNGAL24-0 h and CIN (r=0.478, P<0.001). (4) Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that estimated glomerular filtration rate(OR=1.020, 95%CI 1.005-1.035, P=0.007) and ΔNGAL24-0 h (OR=1.020, 95%CI 1.014-1.027, P<0.001) were the independent predictors of CIN.(5) ROC curve showed that the AUC of NGAL with the cutoff value 4.65 was 0.899(0.854, 0.944)for diagnosis of CIN (sensitivity 93.6%, and specificity 0.944). Conclusion: The rise of urinary NGAL level at 24 and 48 hours after CAG or PCI is suggestive of CIN and could be used as a reliable parameter for the early diagnose of CIN.

ABSTRACT

The NF-κB family of transcription factors is essential for promoting cell proliferation and preventing cell apoptosis. We have previously shown that Andrographolide (Andro) isolated from an herbal plant, Andrographis paniculata, covalently modifies reduced cysteine(62) in the oligonucleotide binding pocket of p50 for inhibition of NF-κB activation. Here we report that Andro, but not its inactive structural analog 4H-Andro, potently suppressed squamous cell carcinogenesis induced by 7,12-dimethyl-1,2-benzanthracene (DMBA) in the hamster model of cheek buccal pouch. Compared with 4H-Andro, Andro reduced phosphorylation of p65 (Ser536) and IκBα (Ser32/36) for inhibiting aberrant NF-κB activation, suppressed c-Myc and cyclin D1 expression and attenuated neoplastic cell proliferation, promoted cancerous cell apoptosis, and mitigated tumor-induced angiogenesis. Consistently, Andro retarded growth, decreased proliferation, and promoted apoptosis of Tb cells, a human tongue squamous cell carcinoma cell line, in time- and dose-dependent manners, with concomitant reduction of the expression of NF-κB targeting molecules in vitro. Our results thus demonstrate that NF-κB activation plays important roles in the pathogenesis of chemically induced squamous cell carcinoma. By inhibition of aberrant NF-κB activation, Andro treats chemically induced oral squamous cell carcinogenesis.

ABSTRACT

To evaluate the effect and indication of different lymph node dissection (D1+, D2, D3), we performed radical operations for 371 cases of gastric cancer. The results showed that D1+ or D1 lymph node dissection was enough for gastric cancer of Ia stage, D2 was suitable for Ib stage. For localized or massive type gastric cancer of II + III stage, D3, D2 dissection was better than D1+ dissection. For the gastric cancer of the same type in IV stage, the 5-year survival rate after D3 + D2 dissection was 42.9%, but for the gastric cancer of infiltrative type or diffused growth pattern in II + III stage, the effect was not significantly increased even after the D3, D2 dissection. For the gastric cancer of this type in IV stage, the effect was not improved after the extended lymph node dissection. Extended dissection needn't be performed if there was no lymph node metastasis. D3, D2 dissection was better if there was little lymph node metastasis or the metastasis was limited to 1st group. For those metastasized to 2nd group or the quantity was more, D3 was better than D2, D1+. The effect of D3, D2 dissection was not significantly improved in the extensive metastasis case (more than 10 or to the 3rd group).

ABSTRACT

From Jan. 1980 to June. 1984, radical operation was performed in 156 patients with gastric cancer according to the "protocol" introduced by the Gastric Cancer Research Society of Japan. There were 24 early and 132 advanced gastric cancers. Seventy patients were treated by type R2, 86 by R+2 and R3. Radical distal subtotal gastrectomy was done in 116, proximal subtotal gastrectomy in 7, simple total gastrectomy in 13 and subtotal or total gastrectomy combined with neighbouring organ resection in 20. According to TNM staging, 24 (15.4%) lesions were stage I, 9 (5.8%) stage II, 100 (64.1%) stage III and 23 (14.7%) stage IV. Twenty four lesions were within the mucosa or submucosal layer, 11 in proprius muscle layer, 18 to subserosa, 15 to serosa, 46 beyond serosa, 42 involving the surrounding organs. Lymph node metastatic rate was 66% (103 cases), metastatic degree was 21.5% (558/2593). The metastatic degree of lymph node line I, II and III was 24.7%, 20% and 8.3%, respectively. Basing on lymph node metastatic rate and degree as well as the line degree, it is proposed that, in the early stage of gastric cancer, type R1 be performed for cancer limited to the mucosa, especially the minute type, R2 for cancer invading the submucosa, in which, R+2 be indicated for some isolated patients. In the advanced gastric cancer, type R+2 be performed in the majority of patients and R3 in a few. R3 or total gastrectomy combined with neighbouring organ resection be carried out only in a part of cases with the limited type infiltrating beyond the serosa or invading the neighbouring organs.
