简介:组织缺氧可诱导的factor-1α;(HIF-1α;)在调整angiogenesis起一个重要作用,它为肿瘤生长和转移是必要的。HIF1A的基因变化(编码HIF-1α;)被显示了影响一个个人的危险性到许多人的肿瘤;然而,在在HIF1A单个核苷酸的多型性(SNP)和风险正在冲突的前列腺癌症(PCa)之间的协会上证实。我们genotyped在用TaqMan方法的HIF1A(rs11549465,rs11549467和rs2057482)的三潜在地功能的多型性并且在662 的盒子控制研究与PCa风险估计了他们的协会;在一张中国汉人口的PCa病人和716控制。与rs11549467GG遗传型相比,变体遗传型GA+;AA有显著地增加的PCa风险(调整机会比率(或)=1.70;95%;信心间隔(CI)=1.06-2.72),特别地在更老的病人之中(OR=2.01;95%;CI=1.05-3.86),吸烟者(OR=2.06;95%;CI=1.07-3.99),从未喝酒者(OR=2.16;95%;CI=1.20-3.86)并且没有癌症的家庭历史的病人(OR=1.71;95%;CI=1.02-2.89)。而且,有rs11549467变体遗传型的病人与一个更高级的格利森分数被联系(OR=2.14;95%;CI=1.22-3.75)。没有改变的PCa风险与rs11549465和rs2057482多型性被联系。然而,rs2057482和rs11549467的联合变体遗传型与增加的PCa风险被联系(OR=2.10;95%;在带三的题目或更多的风险等位基因之中的CI=1.23-3.57)。这些结果建议HIF1A多型性可以在中国汉人口影响PCa危险性和前进。

简介:AbstractIntroduction:Pterygium inversum unguis (PIU) refers to a disorder that distal portion of the nail bed adheres to ventral surface of the nail plate, leading to the absence of the distal groove. This is not a common condition in existing literature, thus its pathogenesis has not been elucidated. The occurrence can be congenital, idiopathic, or secondary. Here we present a case of PIU associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Case presentation:A 33-year-old woman presented with distal nail bed of the bilateral fingers (excluding the thumbs) adheres to the ventral surface of the nail plate, associated with a malar rash, photosensitivity, and arthritis, whose further laboratory examinations confirmed immunologic disorders. All these clinical characteristics and laboratory results point to the diagnosis of PIU secondary to SLE. Treatment of SLE and topical application of tretinoin 0.025% were performed and resulted in the improvement of most discomforts but PIU. There has no aggravation or alleviation of the PIU during a year of follow-up.Discussion:Acquired form of PIU is reportedly associated with connective tissue diseases or other conditions, which may be caused by abnormal distal circulation or exposure to certain chemical stimuli. Some therapies may be available, while the most effective strategy is to treat potential disorder. Clinicians should be vigilant to find out the underlying causes of PIU, so as to obtain better therapeutic efficacy.Conclusion:We observed a rare disorder of PIU associated with SLE. Hence when identifying a patient of PIU, comprehensive evaluations and long-term follow-up are imperative to to detect the development of connective tissus diseases, such as SLE.
