  • Attaching importance and practicing integrated management of chronic kidney disease

    Chronic kidney diease has a high incidence. It is a major disease that seriously endangers human health. The integrated management of chronic kidney disease, through etiological treatment of chronic kidney disease, delaying the deterioration of renal function, and the combination of hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and kidney transplantation for end-stage kidney disease treatment, is a scientific and effective full-course management of chronic kidney disease. The integrated management of chronic kidney disease is the key to reduce the mortality and disability rates. At the same time, it is a more important and far-reaching task to emphasize early popularization of science, screening, prevention and intervention to reduce the incidence of kidney disease.

  • Association between XRCC1 rs1799782 polymorphism and thyroid cancer risk: a meta-analysis

    ObjectiveTo explore the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the X-ray cross complementary repair gene-1 (XRCC1) rs1799782 locus and thyroid cancer.MethodsStudies investigating the association between SNP in the XRCC1 gene and thyroid cancer susceptibility were retrieved from the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI (Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure), Wanfang, and CBM (China Biology Medicine) databases (published date up to February 15, 2021). Eligible studies were screened according to inclusion/exclusion criteria and principles of quality evaluation. Meta-analysis was performed using Stata 14.0 software. Odds ratios with their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were pooled to assess the association between SNP in the XRCC1 gene rs1799782 locus and thyroid cancer susceptibility.ResultsTwelve articles were eligible for this meta-analysis. Meta-analysis results were shown as follows: No significant association was found between XRCC1 rs1799782 polymorphism and thyroid cancer in overall population [Dominant model: CT+TT vs CC, OR=1.07, 95%CI (0.84, 1.36). Recessive model: TT vs CT+CC, OR=1.48, 95%CI (0.95, 2.31). Allelic model: T vs C, OR=1.15, 95%CI (0.93, 1.43). Codominant model: TT vs CC: OR=1.44, 95%CI (0.83, 2.53); CT vs CC, OR=1.02, 95%CI (0.82, 1.28); TT vs CT, OR=1.40, 95%CI (0.98, 1.99)]. rs1799782 polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of thyroid cancer in Chinese population [Dominant model: CT+TT vs CC, OR=1.38, 95%CI (1.11, 1.71). Recessive model : TT vs CT+CC, OR=1.97, 95%CI (1.55, 2.50); Allelic model: T vs C, OR=1.40, 95%CI (1.16, 1.68). Codominant model: TT vs CC, OR=2.12, 95%CI (1.66, 2.71); CT vs CC, OR=1.26, 95%CI (1.09, 1.47); TT vs CT, OR=1.70, 95%CI (1.31, 2.21)]. rs1799782 polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of thyroid cancer in Asian population [Dominant model: CT+TT vs CC, OR=0.64, 95%CI (0.49, 0.83). Codominant model: TT vs CC: OR=0.50, 95%CI (0.33, 0.74); CT vs CC, OR=0.65, 95%CI (0.49, 0.86)].ConclusionsThere is no significant correlation between XRCC1 rs1799782 polymorphism and the risk of thyroid cancer in general population. The XRCC1 rs1799782 polymorphism may be associated with an increased thyroid cancer risk among Chinese, and a tendency for decreased thyroid cancer risk among Asians (Chinese excluded). The XRCC1 rs1799782 polymorphism is not associated with thyroid cancer susceptibility among Caucasians under all genetic models.

  • Comparative study on effectiveness of modified-transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion and posterior lumbar interbody fusion surgery in treatment of mild to moderate lumbar spondylolisthesis in middle-aged and elderly patients

    ObjectiveTo compare the effectiveness of modified transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (modified-TLIF) and posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) for mild to moderate lumbar spondylolisthesis in middle-aged and elderly patients.MethodsThe clinical data of 106 patients with mild to moderate lumbar spondylolisthesis (Meyerding classification≤Ⅱ degree) who met the selection criteria between January 2015 and January 2017 were retrospectively analysed. All patients were divided into modified-TLIF group (54 cases) and PLIF group (52 cases) according to the different surgical methods. There was no significant difference in preoperative clinical data of gender, age, disease duration, sliding vertebra, Meyerding grade, and slippage type between the two groups (P>0.05). The intraoperative blood loss, operation time, postoperative drainage volume, postoperative bed time, hospital stay, and complications of the two groups were recorded and compared. The improvement of pain and function were evaluated by the visual analogue scale (VAS) score and Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score at preoperation, 1 week, and 1, 6, 12 months after operation, and last follow-up, respectively. The effect of slip correction was evaluated by slip angle and intervertebral altitude at preoperation and last follow-up, and the effectiveness of fusion was evaluated according to Suk criteria.ResultsAll patients were followed up, the modified-TLIF group was followed up 25-36 months (mean, 32.7 months), the PLIF group was followed up 24-38 months (mean, 33.3 months). The intraoperative blood loss, operation time, postoperative drainage volume, postoperative bed time, and hospital stay of the modified-TLIF group were significantly less than those of the PLIF group (P<0.05). The VAS score and JOA score of both groups were significantly improved at each time point after operation (P<0.05); the scores of the modified-TLIF group were significantly better than those of the PLIF group at 1 and 6 months after operation (P<0.05). The slip angle and intervertebral altitude of both groups were obviously improved at last follow-up (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the two groups at preoperation and last follow-up (P>0.05). At last follow-up, the fusion rate of the modified-TLIF group and the PLIF group was 96.3% (52/54) and 98.1% (51/52), respectively, and no significant difference was found between the two groups (χ2=0.000, P=1.000). About complications, there was no significant difference between the two groups in nerve injury on the opposite side within a week, incision infection, and pulmonary infection (P>0.05). No case of nerve injury on the operation side within a week or dural laceration occurred in the modified-TLIF group, while 8 cases (15.4%, P=0.002) and 4 cases (7.7%, P=0.054) occurred in the PLIF group respectively.ConclusionModified-TLIF and PLIF are effective in the treatment of mild to moderate lumbar spondylolisthesis in middle-aged and elderly patients. However, modified-TLIF has relatively less trauma, lower blood loss, lower drainage volume, lower incidence of dural laceration and nerve injury, which promotes enhanced recovery after surgery.

  • Experimental study on the effect of zinc finger protein A20 on lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration in rabbits

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of zinc finger protein A20 on lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration in rabbits.MethodsTwenty-six 3-month-old New Zealand rabbits, 2.0-2.5 kg in weight, were used to establish the model of intervertebral disc degeneration at L3, 4, L4, 5, and L5, 6 by transabdominal needle puncture. At 4 weeks after operation, the 24 rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups after successful modeling, which checked by MRI. The target intervertebral discs of each group were injected with zinc finger protein A20 overexpressed adenovirus (Ov-A20 group), empty carrier adenovirus (NC group), phosphate buffer saline (control group), and shRNA-A20 adenovirus (Sh-A20 group). The biological responses of animals in each group were comprehensive scored before 1 day of injection and after 1, 2, 3, and 6 days of injection. At 2, 4, and 8 weeks after injection, the animals in each group were observed by MRI to obtain the exact T2 relaxation time (T2 signal value). After MRI examination, the animals were killed to take the degenerative intervertebral disc tissue; and the tissue was detected by Alcian blue staining to observed the intervertebral disc degeneration. The expressions of zinc finger protein A20, collagen Ⅱ, and aggrecan were detected by immunohistochemistry staining. The expressions of zinc finger protein A20, nuclear factor κB binding protein [P65, phosphate P65 (P-P65), collagen Ⅱ, aggrecan], inflammatory factors [tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β)], autophagy-related protein [LC3 (LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ) and P62] were detected by Western blot.ResultsThe comprehensive score of biological response in each group after injection was significantly lower than that before injection (P<0.05). At 6 days after injection, the comprehensive score of biological response in the Sh-A20 group was significantly lower than that in other groups (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference among other groups (P>0.05). The detection of MRI showed that the T2 signal value in the Ov-A20 group was the highest at 2, 4, and 8 weeks after injection (P<0.05), and the T2 signal value in the Sh-A20 group was the lowest at 2 and 4 weeks after injection (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between other groups (P>0.05). Alcian blue staining showed that the expression of aggrecan was the highest in Ov-A20 group and the lowest in Sh-A20 group at 4 weeks (P<0.05); the expression of aggrecan in Ov-A20 group was the highest at 8 weeks (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between other groups (P>0.05). Immunohistochemical staining showed that the expressions of zinc finger protein A20, collagen Ⅱ, and aggrecan were the highest in Ov-A20 group and lowest in Sh-A20 group (P<0.05). Western blot showed that the expressions of zinc finger protein A20, collagen Ⅱ, aggrecan, and LC3 (LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ) proteins were the highest in the Ov-A20 group and the lowest in Sh-A20 group (P<0.05), while the expressions of P-P65, TNF-α, IL-1β, and P62 proteins were the lowest in Ov-A20 group and the highest in Sh-A20 group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of p65 protein between groups (P>0.05).ConclusionZinc finger protein A20 can effectively regulate the process of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration in rabbits by inhibiting inflammation.
