Increase in urine albumin excretion rate (AER) precede a fall in glomerular
filtration rate in patients developing diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD). Our
results have shown that 7 (50 %) of diabetic and hypertensive individuals with
decreased GFR do not have increased AER. In this cross-sectional study, we measured
AER of 75 patients with type 2 diabetes and hypertension by immunoturbidimetric
method. We correlated the results with eGFR values obtained by Cockcroft–Gault and
MDRD method. The method used was not a compensated method. We measured serum
creatinine by modified Jaffe’s kinetic method in autoanalyzer XL-600. Analysis of
data showed positive correlation between eGFR and microalbuminuria by both the
methods with eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Pearson’s
correlation co-efficient (r) was 0.9 (p = 0.0001)
by Cockcroft–Gault formula and 0.69 (p = 0.0063)
by MDRD formula. Our results concluded that there was positive correlation between
AER and eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2. We have recognized
that these two parameters provide a complimentary benefit in management of cases
with CKD. 相似文献

Experimental model of chronic renal failure in rats have been described by many authors and has also been widely used in various
studies. Many of these methods used highly sophisticated instruments which was difficult in our settings. The resection model
was ideal in our experimental set-up, but this model had the risk of excessive bleeding and hypovolemia. In our study we used
a combination of partial resection and ligation of the renal artery to create two models of stable uremia A and Moderate uremia
B. Severe uremia. Both these models were compared with a sham operated group which served as controls. Following surgical
procedure, the development of uremia was monitored by serial estimation of blood urea and serum creatinine levels that were
measured at regular intervals (bi-weekly). From two weeks onwards the animals in the experimental group showed a significant
elevation in the serum urea levels and a consistent elevation in the serum creatinine levels upto eight weeks when compared
to the animals in the sham operated group. We established a modified method of producing renal failure which can be maintained
for a period of six weeks. This model is simple, reproducible and less complicated that can be used for several studies relating
to renal failure in the field of research. 相似文献

Serum creatinine (SCr) levels are frequently used as a screening test to assess impaired renal function; however, patients
can have significantly decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with normal SCr values and making the recognition of kidney
dysfunction more difficult. Hence, this study was designed to determine the extent of misclassification of the patients who
have significantly reduced GFR as calculated by reexpressed four variable modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) equation
but, normal range of SCr. The study included 1040 in and out patients referred by physicians for serum creatinine measurement.
When an exclusion criterion was applied 928 patients were qualified for the study. SCr was measured in 928 patients by a Roche
kinetic compensated Jaffe’s assay. GFR was calculated using reexpressed four variable MDRD study equation. Of the 928 patients
270 (29.1%) had renal dysfunction on the basis of eGFR (<60 ml/min/1.73 m2). However, with SCr only 162 (17.5%) patients had abnormal renal function (>1.5 mg/dl) and SCr values misrepresented (108)
11.6% patients with impaired kidney function. In addition, more females, about 15% were failed to detect by SCr method in
contrast to males of 9%. This study documented that, a large proportion of patients with impaired renal function are not diagnosed
if clinicians rely solely on normal SCr as evidence of normal renal function. Inclusion of eGFR calculated by re-expressed
4 variable MDRD equation may facilitates the early identification and intervention of patients with renal impairment. 相似文献

Cystatin C is an emerging parameter for the assessment of renal allograft function. The objective of the study was to compare
the efficacy of serum cystatin C (SCys) with the established parameter serum creatinine (SCr) in the assessment of renal function
in renal transplant recipients (RTR). The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of 30 renal transplant patients and 29 control
subjects was determined using 99mTc Diethylene-triamine-penta-acetate (DTPA) method. SCr was measured using an automated Jaffe’s assay and SCys was measured
using latex particle enhanced turbidimetric immuno assay (PETIA). The modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) formula
was used to calculate GFR from SCr, while the Le Bricon formula was used to derive GFR based on SCys. Statistical analysis
was performed using MedCalc software. SCr and SCys levels were significantly higher, while DTPA clearance was significantly
lower in RTR (P < 0.0001) when compared with controls. The correlation coefficient (r value) between calculated GFR based on MDRD method and DTPA clearance was 0.343 (P = 0.06) while the calculated GFR based on Le Bricon formula was 0.694 (P < 0.001). The results have shown that SCys is a better parameter than SCr in assessing renal function in RTR. The inclusion
of SCys as an additional parameter would certainly help in detection of even a marginal decline in renal function and also
in adjusting the dosage of immunosuppressive drugs. 相似文献

Tumor lysis syndrome has been observed in patients with malignancies with high cellular burden and high cell turnover, tumor sensitive to therapy, especially after initiating medical treatment. It very rarely occurs spontaneously. The case described here is of 6 months male infant who presented with fever since 1 month and loose stools associated with blood since 15 days. The laboratory investigations showed lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of 6,192 IU/L and serum uric acid 18.2 mg/dl along with pancytopenia. The infant presented with electrolyte abnormalities and renal failure. 相似文献

Low back pain is very disabling and dispiriting because of the physical impediment it causes and its psychological effects. Innumerable factors have been implicated in its etiology. In spite of improvements in diagnostic modalities, a considerable number of such cases fall in the ambiguous zone of unknown etiology or ‘idiopathic.’Early diagnosis of low back pain will allow effective prevention and treatment to be offered. This study was conducted to assess the contribution of vitamin D levels and other biochemical factors to chronic low back pain in such cases. All patients attending the orthopedics OPD for low back pain in whom a precise anatomical cause could not be localized, were prospectively enrolled in this study. We measured serum levels of glucose, calcium, phosphorus, uric acid, rheumatoid factor, C reactive protein, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, albumin and 25 (OH) D concentrations in 200 cases and 200 control samples. The patients showed significantly lower vitamin D levels compared to controls with p value < 0.0001. The maximum number of low back pain patients were in the age group of 31–50 years (42 %).The average BMI was 23.27 ± 5.17 kg/sq m, 73 % of total patient population were females and 27 % were known case of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Calcium, alkaline phosphatase, was positively correlated with vitamin D and glucose showed a negative correlation with vitamin D in the patient population. The problem of low back pain provides a challenge to health care providers. The problem in developing countries is compounded by ignorance to report for early treatment and occupational compulsions in rural areas and sedentary lifestyle in urban youth. The authors strongly recommend early frequent screening for vitamin D along with glucose, protein, albumin, calcium, phosphorus, CRP as part of general health checkup for non-specific body pain, especially low back pain. 相似文献

Homocysteine concentration affected by the activities of the enzymes methylene tetra-hyrdofolate reductase (MTHFR). Polymorphisms in MTHFR gene associated with an impairment of MTHFR activity. Hyperhomocysteinemia is a result of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in MTHFR 677 C>T that can cause homocysteine levels in the blood to increase. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between MTHFR C677T (rs1801133) gene polymorphism, changes in homocysteine concentrations and progress of renal impairment in young adult hypertensive patients. Two hundred young hypertensive patients (age 21–24 years) were involved in this study; they were classified into patients with and without renal impairment in addition to 200 age and sex matched healthy controls. All participants were submitted to laboratory investigations as assay of MTHFR gene polymorphism C677T (rs1801133) by PCR/RFLP, determination of lipid profile, homocysteine and folic acid concentrations in addition to urinary albumin creatinine ratio (UACR). The levels of both homocysteine and UACR in the TT genotype patients were higher than those in the CC genotype group. Individuals who carry the T allele were more risky to hypertension and progress to early renal impairment in young age compared with those carrying the C allele [OR 2.02 (1.33–3.08), P < 0.001]. Genetic variants of C677T MTHFR gene and hyperhomocysteinemia may be responsible for rapid progress of renal impairment in Egyptian young age hypertensive patients. TT genotype or T allele may be considered as a predisposing factor for both elevated Hcy levels and the development of renal impairment. This study believed that lowering of homocysteine level can reduce renal impairment of hypertensive patients. 相似文献

The reference intervals (RIs) of serum aminotransferases and Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) have been established many years ago. Recent RIs are not available. The prospective study was conducted to re-evaluate the RIs of liver enzymes and the effect of demographic and anthropometric variables on them in western Indian population. A total of 1059 blood donors comprised the study population. Anthropometry and serum liver enzymes levels were measured. Subjects were categorized into normal weight and overweight by using body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). For RI determination, non-parametric methodology recommended by IFCC/CLSI was adopted. Mann–Whitney test and Spearman’s rank correlation were used for statistical analysis. Upper limit of normal reference value of liver enzymes were lower in female compared to male. (ALT—23.55 F vs 36.00 M, GGT—34.58 F vs 36.20 M) When RI of liver enzymes were calculated according to body mass index, the upper limit of normal of ALT and GGT were higher in overweight group compared to normal weight group. (ALT—38.00 vs 27.00 IU/L and GGT—37.59 vs 35.26 IU/L). In both male and female, liver enzymes correlated significantly with age. WC and BMI were positively correlated with AST, ALT and GGT in both subgroups and the correlation was stronger in male. Demographic factors should be considered for making liver enzyme tests more clinically relevant. Gender based partitioning should be adopted for serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and GGT reference values for Western Indian population. 相似文献

The present study was aimed at assessing alterations in serum PCT in terms of its relation to body weight gain in pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) patients undergoing treatment. Among patients (25–75 years) diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis, those that were new smear positive, showed sputum conversion at the end of 2 months and were declared clinically cured at the end of 6 months, were included in the study (n = 40). Serum procalcitonin was determined by BRAHMS PCT-Q kit. Patients were divided into two study groups—Group 1 (n = 21; serum PCT > 2 ng/ml at diagnosis), Group 2 (n = 19; serum PCT > 10 ng/ml at diagnosis). Body weights of all patients were obtained at three different time points, PTB-0 (at diagnosis), PTB-2 (after 2 months of intensive treatment) and PTB-6 (after 6 months of treatment). In both groups, mean body weights at PTB-2 and PTB-6 were significantly higher than those at PTB-0 and at PTB-6 were significantly higher than those at PTB-2. However, percentage body weight gain following 2 months of intensive treatment was higher in group 1 (4.05 % gain, p < 0.01) than in group 2 (2.75 % body weight gain, p < 0.05). Thus, the percentage gain in group 1 was tending more towards the desirable minimum gain of 5 % during intensive phase. Increase in serum PCT levels in pulmonary tuberculosis is inversely associated with body weight gain during treatment. Thus, PCT could play a role in regulation of body weight gain in anorectic conditions like tuberculosis. 相似文献

Thyroid hormones regulate the renal hemodynamics and basal metabolic rate of most cells. This hospital-based case-control
study was done to evaluate the changes in biochemical markers of liver and kidney function in hypothyroid subjects before
and after treatment. The study included 176 subjects randomly selected from Thyroid clinics. Serum T3, T4, TSH, Liver and Kidney Function tests were analysed using standard kits. Forty-six hypothyroid patients were re-evaluated
6 weeks after thyroxine substitution therapy. Hypothyroid subjects (n=80) showed significantly raised serum creatinine and
uric acid levels as compared to euthyroid subjects (n=96). After 6 weeks of thyroxine replacement, serum creatinine and uric
acid decreased significantly and were comparable to euthyroid group. A positive correlation of ALT, AST, uric acid, protein
and albumin with TSH levels (p<0.05) and negative correlation of serum T4 levels with ALT, AST, proteins (p<0.05) was observed in the hypothyroid group. Hypothyroidism results in reversible impairment
of hepatorenal function. 相似文献

The study was conducted on 38 patients admitted into the intensive care unit with a provisional diagnosis of sepsis and 25 apparently healthy volunteers as controls. Serum procalcitonin (PCT) was assayed by an electrochemiluminescence method. Serum ischemia modified albumin (IMA), expressed as absorbance units was assayed by the albumin cobalt binding test. Patients with sepsis had significantly higher IMA levels (1.087 ± 0.786) as compared with those without sepsis (0.085 ± 0.234) with a p value <0.0001. The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) plot showed a sensitivity of 100 % and a specificity of 86.2 %. The area under the curve of the ROC plot was 0.917 with a p value of <0.0001. The higher levels of IMA serve to highlight the occurrence of ischemic damage which could be a prelude to poorer prognosis. The performance characteristics of IMA warrants its inclusion along with PCT as a parameter in the diagnosis of sepsis. 相似文献

Prostate carcinoma is the most frequently diagnosed malignancy and the second leading cause of death as a result of cancer in men in the US and other parts of the world. There are conflicting reports on the serum levels of testosterone and 17β-estradiol (E2) in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer. This study was designed to evaluate the serum concentrations of these hormones in patients with these disorders. Serum levels of prostate specific antigen (PSA), total testosterone and estradiol were determined in 228 subjects comprising of 116 subjects with BPH, 62 subjects with prostate cancer (CaP) and 50 age-matched apparently healthy controls, using ELISA methods. PSA levels were significantly elevated (p < 0.05) in BPH subjects than controls, while there was no significant difference (p > 0.05) in testosterone and estradiol levels of these subjects. PSA and estradiol levels were significantly higher (p < 0.05) in CaP subjects than in controls, while there was no observed significant difference (p > 0.05) in testosterone levels. CaP subjects had significantly raised PSA, testosterone, and estradiol levels than BPH subjects. The mean molar ratio of testosterone: E2 was lowest among CaP patients (134:1) and highest among controls (166:1). Significant positive correlation between PSA and 17β-estradiol was observed in prostate disorders (BPH and CaP patients: r = 0.347; p = 0.000). Significant negative correlations between testosterone and PSA were also observed among BPH patients (r = −0.221, p = 0.049) and control subjects (r = −0.490, p = 0.000). No significant correlation existed between testosterone and PSA in CaP patients (r = 0.051, p = 0.693). Correlations between age and estradiol in both BPH and CaP were not significant (p > 0.05). This study has shown that, there was a significant increase in serum estradiol in CaP subjects, while the testosterone levels in both BPH and CaP subjects were not different from those of controls. 相似文献

This work was designated to monitor the coagulation abnormalities associated with the gradual progression of liver diseases. The study included fifty patients; forty were diagnosed with liver cirrhosis with different stages categorized according to the Childs-Pugh classification and another ten patients were diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Haemostatic variables including fibrinogen (FI), calcium (FIV), transglutaminase (FXIII), prothrombin time (PT) and platelet count were estimated in patients and compared with the baseline levels of healthy subjects (n = 10). The results demonstrated that the fibrinogen level was progressively decreased, whereas PT was progressively prolonged in Child A, Child B and Child C groups. The maximum deterioration was observed in HCC patients. Calcium significantly increased in mild (Child A) and moderate (Child B) but not in Child C cirrhosis and HCC patients. FXIII level did not show any significant changes in cirrhotic patients compared to healthy group. Some of the haemostatic variables we investigated were correlated with serum albumin and bilirubin but not with aminotransferases (ALT and AST). The results indicated that the haemostatic abnormalities in fibrinogen, calcium and PT (but not FXIII) were deteriorated in parallel with the gradual regression of the constitutional function of liver. 相似文献

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the anti-hypertrophic potential of the aqueous extract of Enicostemma littorale (E. littorale) against isoproterenol induced cardiac hypertrophic rat models (male albino Wistar rats) through biochemical investigations. Aqueous extract of E. littorale known for various beneficial properties was administered (100 mg/kg, 12 days, oral) to isoproterenol (ISO) induced cardiac hypertrophic rats (low ISO—60 mg/kg, 12 days and high ISO—100 mg/kg, 12 days, subcutaneous) and were compared with group that was treated with the reference drug, Losartan (10 mg kg, administered for 12 days, oral). The anti-hypertrophic effect of E. littorale was evaluated by analysing the morphometric indices of the heart, ECG tracings, changes in blood biochemical parameters viz., serum glucose, serum total protein, serum albumin, lipid profile, cardiac specific enzymes (SGOT, SGPT and LDH) and histopathological examination of the heart tissue. The results fundamentally revealed that the plant extract efficiently ameliorated cardiac hypertrophy induced by ISO injected in experimental rats. The outcomes of biochemical investigations of this study highlighted the association between the hypertrophic β-adrenergic receptor signalling (β-AR) and the 5′ AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)—peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α) axis in the metabolism of cardiac fibrosis and hypertrophy. This β-AR/AMPK-PGC1α signalling stem can serve as a key target in ameliorating cardiac hypertrophy through focus on its principal regulators. To add, we also propose that the glycoside, swertiamarin present in this plant with the reported anti-fibrotic potential in liver can be further isolated and evaluated for its anti-hypertrophic potential to treat cardiac hypertrophy. 相似文献

Modified low density lipoproteins (LDL), including their oxidized forms, have been widely implicated in the etiology of atherosclerosis
and concomitant cardiovascular disease (CVD) in chronic renal failure (CRF). The nature of events that lead to oxidative changes
in LDL proteins are not clearly understood. Thus, patients suffering from CRF were grouped into mild, moderate and severe
categories based on their blood urea and serum creatinine levels. Progression of CRF was accompanied not only with gradual
increase in serum malondialdehyde (MDA) but also parallel increase in conjugated diene and MDA levels in LDL fractions separated
from serum. Serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was concurrently found to decrease, along with a decrease in high-density
lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, during the progression of CRF. Gradual increase in the appearance of LDL oxidation products
seems to accompany progressive manifestation of CRF. The results presented suggest that determination of serum MDA and SOD
levels may enhance the diagnostic significance of the study of lipid profile in determining the risk for cardio vascular disease
in CRF. 相似文献

PCOS is a heterogeneous endocrine disorder with diverse clinical presentation. Oxidative stress plays a key role in the pathophysiology of this disease. Serumhigh sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP), a marker of chronic low grade inflammation, is indicative of future development of cardiovascular disease. Our aim is to evaluate the oxidant status and hsCRP levels in PCOS. The study involved 61 cases and 61 controls in the age group of 18–40 years diagnosed with PCOS. Erythrocyte malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), serum hsCRP, gonadotrophins, thyroid stimulating hormone, prolactin, glycemic status and lipid profile were estimated. Erythrocyte MDA (p < 0.001), SOD (p = 0.007) and serum hsCRP (p < 0.001) were significantly elevated in PCOS patients than controls. Oxidative stress is present in women with PCOS along with elevated hsCRP. 相似文献

Serum malondialdehyde was measured in sixty-one falciparum malaria cases, which include thirty uncomplicated, and thirty-one
complicated with acute renal failure. Twenty-six healthy individuals were also studied as controls. Serum malondialdehyde
level was found to be significantly elevated in falciparum malaria induced acute renal failure cases when compared with uncomplicated
falciparum malaria (p<0.001) and healthy controls (p<0.001). A positive correlation with the raised urea, creatinine and bilirubin
levels were significant (r=0.62, p<0.025; r=0.65, p<0.05 and r=0.72, p<0.001 respectively) indicating the severity of complication
with rise of lipid peroxides in falciparum malaria induced acute renal failure cases. 相似文献

Vitamin B12 deficiency has been reported in patients with Autoimmune thyroid disorders. However there is limited data on exact prevalence of low B12 and its correlation with anti-thyroperoxidase antibody (anti-TPO) levels in these patients. The aim of our study was to estimate serum vitamin B12 levels in autoimmune thyroid disorders and to correlate B12 levels with anti-TPO. 350 patients were selected by convenient sampling. Vitamin B12 levels and thyroid parameters were estimated using fully automated chemiluminescence method on Access 2. Results of our study shows that using the manufacturer’s cut-off of 145 pg/mL, the prevalence of low serum vitamin B12 was found to be 45.50 %. Higher prevalence (55 %) was seen based on the published cut-off of 200 pg/mL The study however did not demonstrate any significant correlation between vitamin B12 levels and anti-TPO (r = −0.11 and p value of 0.30).

We aimed to estimate metabolic bone profile in a large cohort of healthy, adult Indian population to generate reference standards of serum calcium, phosphate and alkaline phosphatase (ALP), 25 (OH) Vitamin D and iPTH, and also to find out the prevalence of Vitamin D deficiency in healthy population. Apparently healthy people in the age group of 20–80 years, residing in the union territory of Chandigarh were chosen. Fasting samples for serum calcium, phosphate, albumin, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), 25 (OH) D and iPTH were collected and were processed on the same day. We recruited 930 healthy subjects from different subsectors of Chandigarh. Final analysis was done for 915 subjects. Out of this, 530 (58%) were women and 385 (42%) were men. The study participants were divided into two groups, less than and more than 50 years for the men and pre and post-menopausal for the women. The serum calcium, phosphate, ALP and iPTH were significantly higher in the post-menopausal women compared to the pre-menopausal women. The median plasma 25 (OH) D in men and women was 12.5 ng/mL and 14.3 ng/mL, respectively. 25 (OH) D deficiency was seen in 65.4% of individuals. 25 (OH) D levels co-related negatively with iPTH levels (r = − 0.4, p < 0.0001), and showed an increasing trend with age. We have thus presented metabolic bone profile of healthy, adult north Indian population. These reference values can be used for diagnosis and monitoring of various MBDs. Vitamin D deficiency is still rampant in our population in spite of increasing awareness. 相似文献
