简介:目的探讨急性髓系白血病(AML)患者MDR1和Nrf2基因表达水平及其临床意义。方法选择2011年10月至2014年1月南方医科大学南方医院血液科110例初治AML患者,其中男性66例,女性44例;年龄14~77岁,中位年龄36岁。通过实时荧光定量聚合酶链反应(PCR)方法联合检测患者MDR1和Nrf2基因的表达水平,分析其表达水平与疾病特征及临床疗效之间的关系。结果以110例初治AML患者MDR1和Nrf2基因表达量的中位数为分界点,将患者分别分为MDR1基因低表达组和MDR1基因高表达组及Nrf2基因低表达组和Nrf2基因高表达组各55例,而初治AML患者MDR1和Nrf2基因表达水平在不同分层的年龄、性别、法国(France)、美国(American)和英国(Britain)(FAB)分型、外周血象、骨髓原始细胞比例、遗传学危险度分层、免疫分型CD34表达间差异无统计学意义(P〉0.05)。MDR1基因低表达组完全缓解(CR)率和总生存(OS)率均显著高于MDR1基因高表达组(P=0.032、0.045),而Nrf2基因低表达组和Nrf2基因高表达组CR率和OS率差异无统计学意义(P〉0.05)。在MDR1基因低表达组患者中Nrf2基因表达水平高、低两组患者CR率及OS率差异均无统计学意义(P〉0.05)。但在MDR1基因高表达组患者中Nrf2基因高表达组患者CR率和OS率皆优于Nrf2基因低表达组患者(P=0.007和P=0.001)。结论MDR1基因是AML预后差的指标之一,Nrf2基因不同表达水平患者的危险度分层、疗效、预后差异均无统计学意义;但在MDR1基因高表达组患者中Nrf2基因高表达可能是预后好的指标。

简介:目的应用血管超声回声跟踪技术(ET)观察2型糖尿病(T2DM)患者血管内皮功能的相关因素。方法T2DM患者,符合1999年世界卫生组织(WHO)制定的糖尿病诊断标准,共37例,其中男性19例,女性18例;年龄41-68岁,平均年龄64.50岁。应用ET检测患者颈动脉参数,包括血管的压力-应变弹性系数(Ep)、硬化参数(β)及顺应性(AC)、脉搏波传导速度(PWVβ)、增大指数(AI),分析其与病程、年龄、体质量指数(BMI)、糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)、胰岛素抵抗指数(IR)及合并症的相关性。结果病程与Ep、β、PWVβ呈显著正相关(P〈0.01),与AC呈显著负相关(P〈0.01),与AI无相关性;年龄与β呈正相关(P〈0.05),与Ep、AC、PWVβ、AI均无相关性;是否合并有高血压与Ep、β、AC、PWVβ、AI均无相关性;HbA1c、IR及BMI与Ep、β、AC、PWVβ、AI均无相关性。结论T2DM患者的血管内皮功能主要与病程相关,年龄因素在内皮功能变化中也起到一定作用,血管内皮功能损伤之后,即使良好控制血糖也难以将其逆转。

简介:脊柱融合是治疗脊柱结核、感染、畸形、椎间盘退行性病变脊柱疾患的有效手段,促进脊柱融合成骨率的方法之一就是使用自体骨移植,但其存在来源有限、取骨处疼痛等弊端,目前人重组骨形态发生蛋白-2(Theroleofrecombinanthumanbonemorphogenetic2,rhBMP-2)负载于载体是一种理想的自体骨移植材料的替代物,广泛应用于脊柱融合术中,但近来发现了与其相关的一些副反应。本文就其在脊柱融合中的应用的安全性、有效性及相关的副反应进行综述。
简介:目的通过观察人工股骨头置换术治疗A2型高龄股骨粗隆间粉碎性骨折的疗效,探讨A2型高龄股骨粗隆间粉碎性骨折的治疗策略。方法自1999年1月~2010年4月对23例A2型高龄粗隆间骨折采用人工股骨头置换术,男8例,女15例,年龄75~99岁,平均年龄78.5岁。按AO分型:A2.1型8例,A2.2型12例,A2.3型3例。致伤原因:跌伤19例,车祸伤4例。观察手术时间、术中出血、术后卧床时间及治疗效果并采用Harris评分进行评定。结果23例高龄病人均安全度过围手术期,其中1人术后3个月死于癫痫。22例随访8~18月,平均12月,术后8个月Harris评分,优17例,良3例,可2例,差0例,优良率91%。结论人工股骨头置换术治疗A2型骨折能达到即刻稳定的目的,可满足肢体早期负重活动,具有操作简单、手术时间短、出血量少等优点,对于高龄患者的治疗是一种好的选择。
