  • Evidence-based Treatment for a Patient with Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

    Objective To formulate an evidence-based treatment plan for a patient with malignant pleural mesothelioma.Methods Based on an adequate assessment of the patient’s condition and using the principle of PICO, we searched The Cochrane Library (Issue 1, 2007), PubMed (1996 to February 2007) and EMbase (1974 to February 2007) to identify the best available clinical evidence. Results Five randomized controlled trials, 4 systematic reviews and 1 health economic evaluation were included. According to the current evidence, as well as the patient’s clinical condition and preference, 5 cycles of raltitrexed plus cisplatin were given to the patient along with thoracic drainage and other symptomatic treatment. And the follow-up after 4 months indicated that this treatment plan was appropriate for the patient. Conclusion Evidence-based approaches helped us to prepare the most appropriate chemotherapy plan for this patient and will help improve the therapeutic results for patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma.

  • Chronic intermittent hypoxia induces renal injury in rats by activating endoplasmic reticulum stress

    Objective To explore the mechanism of chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) on renal damage with normal diet and high-fat diet. Methods Twenty-four healthy male Wistar rats of SPF grade were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=6 in each group), namely group A (normoxia and common diet), group B (normoxia and high fat diet), Group C (CIH and common diet), and group D (CIH and high fat diet). The serum cystatin C (Cys-C) was measured and the renal CHOP protein was detected by immunohistochemistry. The ultrastructural changes of glomeruli and renal tubules were observed under electron microscope. Results The levels of Cys-C in group B, group C and group D were significantly higher than those in group A (P<0.05). The mean density of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) marker protein CHOP in group B, group C and group D was significantly higher than that in group A (P<0.05). Electron microscope revealed focal nuclear pyknosis in the partly renal tubular epithelial cells, sparse and scattered brush border in group B and group C, also revealed nuclear pyknosis in a large number of tubular epithelial cells, sparse and scattered brush border in group D. Conclusion CIH can activate the ERS mediated renal tubular epithelial apoptosis, thus induce ultrastructure changes and damage of kidney.

  • Role of CD73 in cardiac injury in rats with chronic intermittent hypoxia combined with high fat diet

    ObjectiveTo investigate the expression and significance of CD73 in rats with intermittent hypoxia and high fat diet.MethodsThe rat model of chronic intermittent hypoxia combined with high fat diet was established. Twenty-four healthy male Wistar rats in the SPF level were randomly divided into 4 group, with 6 rats in each group, namely group A (normoxia and normal diet), group B (normoxia and high fat diet), group C (intermittent hypoxia and normal diet)and group D (intermittent hypoxia and high-fat diet). After 6 weeks of experiment, the serum lipid levels, myocardial morphological changes under microscope, the expression level of CD73 protein detected byimmunohistochemistry and Western blot in myocardial cells in rats were compared among these groups.ResultsThe serum lipid levels were significantly different among these groups (P<0.05). HE results showed that the myocardial cells of group A had no obvious abnormalities; disorganized visible myocardial fibers with focal necrosis in groups B and C; myocardial cell injury was most obvious in group D, in which visible muscle fibers arranged in disorder, and grain was not clear, part of the muscle fibers were dissolved predominantly. Compared with group A, CD73 protein expression levels in myocardial cells in groups B, C, and D were significantly elevated (P<0.01). Furthermore, CD73 protein expression level in myocardial cells in group D was significantly higher than those in groups B and C (P<0.01). Western blot showed consistent results as immunohistochemistry: compared with group A, CD73 protein expression levels in groups B, C, and D were significantly elevated (P<0.05), and CD73 protein expression level in myocardial cells in group D was significantly higher than those in groups B and C (P<0.01).ConclusionChronic intermittent hypoxia and high fat diet can cause myocardial cell damage and upregulate CD73 expression in the cardiomyocytes.

  • Relationship between insulin resistance and endogenous cannabinoid receptor 1 protein expression of PBMC in OSAHS patients

    ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between glucose metabolism and endocannabinoid system (ECS) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).MethodsA total of 64 OSAHS patients (18 cases of mild OSAHS, 24 cases of moderate OSAHS, 22 cases of severe OSAHS) and 24 controls were included in the study. Body mass index, waist circumference, fasting blood lipids, fasting blood glucose, fasting blood insulin, homeostasis model of assessment for insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), polysomnography and endogenous cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1R) protein expression levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were measured in participants.ResultsThe incidence of diabetes and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) in the OSAHS group was significantly higher than that in the control group (28.12% vs. 8.33%). With the increase of apnea hypopnea index (AHI), HOMA-IR and the expression levels of CB1R protein increased gradually (HOMA-IR: 2.40±0.90, 2.34±0.59, 2.94±0.99, 3.46±0.77, respectively; CB1R protein: 0.04±0.01, 0.37±0.09, 0.40±0.07, 0.62±0.14, respectively). Correlation analysis showed that HOMA-IR, AHI and the expression of CB1R protein were significantly positively correlated with each other (P<0.05).ConclusionOSAHS patients are prone to insulin resistance, IFG and diabetes mellitus, which are closely related to the activation of ECS induced by OSAHS.
