Clinicopathological characteristics of non-steroid anti-inflammation drug acute kidney injury by SU Tao, YANG Li

“…Objective To further understand the characteristics of non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs) acute kidney injury(AKI).Methods Twenty-seven cases of NSAIDs-induced renal injury diagnosed from Jan 1st,2000 to Dec 31 st 2012 were enrolled,and followed up for more than one year to exclude kidney diseases induced by other drugs and origins.Characteristics of pathogenetic drugs,laboratory examinations and clinical presentations of the renal injury were analyzed.Results Acute renal injury to varying degrees was diagnosed in 27 cases.Serum creatinine were 109.8 ~730.1 μmol/L at the time of diagnosis.One patient presented minimal change disease accompanied by tubulointestitial nephritis.The main causative drugs included acetaminophen,aminopyrine,and ibuprofen,accounting for 66.7%,14.8% and 11.1%respectively.The renal injury occurred after 1 to even 60 days of drug exposure.Only 40.8% of patients with acute renal injury could be early diagnosed within 2 weeks.There were 26 cases of tubulointerstitial nephritis.Renal glucoseuria and obvious urinary α1-microglobulin could be observed.The average urinary protein was(1.1 ± 0.6)g/d.Fourteen cases were confirmed pathologically afterwards.One female patient presenting nephrotic syndrome had both minimal change disease and tubulointerstitial nephritis.All patients were given prednisone(25-40 mg/d) for a total of 3-6 months,and 18.5% of them were given prednisone in combination with immunosuppressants.During a follow-up period of one year,ten(37.0%) patients remained CKD 3-4.One patient with hepatitis B died because of severe hepatopathy.Conclusions All the NSAIDs administrated before AKI should be suspected as the causative agents,and be avoided afterwards.Among them,acetaminophen was the most frequent Tubulointerstitial nephritis was the main clinical-pathological finding,with or without minimal changes of glomerulus.Urinalysis and renal function need to be closely monitored.Timely drug withdrawal combined with prednisone was recommended on the basis of an early diagnosis.…”

The Influence of Technological Factors of the Bimetallic Ribbed Tube Manufacturing Process on the Heat Transfer Rate of Air-Cooling Units by A. B. Sukhotski, V. B. Kuntysh

“…At the same time, the extrusion force cannot be accepted as the main criterion for assessing the quality of connecting the shell of bimetallic ribbed tubes, as is customary in the industry at present. The value of the relative length of the air gap more objectively characterizes the state of contact between the main tube and the ribbed shell, but its use as a determining parameter in express quality control of bimetallic tubes is impossible due to the laboriousness of its calculation. …”

Reduction of glaciers in the Ulakhan-Chistay Range (Chersky Mountains) from 1970 to 2018 by A. Ya. Muraviev, G. A. Nosenko

“…Glaciers shrank against the background of a gradual rising in summer air temperatures (about 1.5 °C over the past 50 years) with a slight change in the winter precipitation. The more intensive shrinking of glaciers over the past two decades was caused by the stable positive anomaly of summer air temperatures, which remained since 2005 to the present.…”

System Eliminating Emergency Discharges in Industrial Facilities Waste Waters Using Relative Signal Description by V. A. Alekseev, S. I. Yuran, V. P. Usoltsev, D. N. Shulmin

“…The relative description on the components of the lattice function of the spectrum of emergency discharges is used, constructed using the order ratio between the components of the lattice function.The emergency discharge identification can be implemented by comparing the relative description of the emergency discharge spectrum with the reference spectra for the harmful substances that can be present at the given industrial facility, and the standards of the spectra of these substances are presented in the form of a relative description using the ratio “more”–“less”.The authors provide a flow chart for the emergency discharge elimination system, describe its operation and the functions fulfilled by its elements. …”
