Urine IL-8 is the Predictive Biomarker of Steroid Sensitivity in Patients with Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2014.363

Synopsis:

We conducted a prospective study on idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS) to explore the changes in the urine IL levels of the patients to discover the noninvasive indicators for predicting and dynamically monitoring steroid efficacy in the steroid therapy of INS patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective: The study aimed to explore the correlation between urine interleukin (IL)-8, 6, 10, 17 levels and the efficacy of steroid in patients with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS).

Application of Computer Navigation-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery in Resection of Rib Tumour

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2015.528

Synopsis:

Based on our clinical experiences, the combined surgical method is especially feasible for the tiny tumour or some tumours that are unreachable or resided in scapula and deep face of breast.

ABSTRACT

Objective: Excision of rib tumors by conventional surgical method often results in poor prognosis due to trauma and heavily bleeding. In the present study, we evaluated the advantages of applying computer navigation-assisted thoracoscope in the resection of rib tumors.
