OBJETIVOS: Avaliar a associação entre os parâmetros clinicolaboratoriais e alteração morfológica de biópsias renais em crianças com síndrome nefrótica. MÉTODOS: Os dados foram obtidos dos prontuários médicos de 43 crianças com síndrome nefrótica submetidas a biópsia renal. RESULTADOS: Vinte e oito pacientes eram do sexo masculino (65,1%), idades entre 1,4 a 12 anos (média de 4,7±3,2). Quarenta e dois pacientes (97,7%) apresentaram edema; 83,7%, oligúria e 32,5%, hipertensão arterial. A média de proteinúria foi 15,3g/1,73m²SC/dia e 55,8% apresentaram hematúria microscópica. As biópsias renais mostraram: glomerulonefrite proliferativa mesangial (GNPM) em 37,2%, glomeruloesclerose segmentar e focal (GESF) em 27,9%, alterações glomerulares mínimas (LM) em 25,6%, glomerulonefrite membranoproliferativa (GNMP) em 7% e glomerulonefrite membranosa (GNM) em 2,3%. Vinte e seis pacientes (60,5%) apresentaram resistência ao corticosteróide. Idade, sexo, hipertensão arterial, oligúria, uréia e creatinina séricas não mostraram diferenças estatísticas significativas entre os pacientes com GNPM, GESF e LM. Os pacientes com GNPM e GESF apresentaram maior freqüência de hematúria microscópica (p < 0,003 e p < 0,03; respectivamente). Os pacientes com GESF apresentaram maiores níveis de proteinúria (p < 0,01 versus LM e p < 0,05 versus GNPM). Os pacientes com LM apresentaram sensibilidade ao corticosteróide (p < 0,001 versus GESF e p = 0,047 versus GNPM). CONCLUSÕES: Sexo, idade, presença de hipertensão arterial ou oligúria e níveis séricos de uréia e creatinina não auxiliaram na diferenciação entre pacientes com GNPM, GESF e LM. Os pacientes com LM apresentaram sensibilidade a corticosteróides e menos probabilidade de apresentar hematúria microscópica. Pacientes com GESF apresentaram maiores níveis de proteinúria.

OBJETIVO: Avaliar a cistatina C como marcador de função renal em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de cardíaca com circulação extracorpórea, comparando com a dosagem sérica de creatinina. MÉTODOS: Foram analisados 50 pacientes consecutivos submetidos à cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio. A função renal foi avaliada com a dosagem sérica de cistatina C e de creatinina no pré-operatório, no primeiro e no quinto dia de pós-operatório. Foram utilizadas as fórmulas de Cockcroft-Gault (CG) e Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) para calcular a taxa de filtração glomerular estimada (TFG) através da creatinina, e a fórmula de Larsson para a TFG estimada através da cistatina C (TFG-Cis). RESULTADOS: A creatinina e o TFG através das fórmulas de CG e MDRD não mostraram diferença significativa nos momentos estudados. Após a agressão renal pela cirurgia, houve um aumento da cistatina C no 1º e 5º pós-operatório, sendo que no 5º pós-operatório com diferença estatisticamente significativa (P < 0,01). Houve uma queda da TFG estimada pela cistatina C de 105,2 ± 41,0 ml/min, no pré-operatório, para 89,5 ± 31,5 ml/min no 5º dia pós-operatório (P < 0,012). CONCLUSÃO: A cistatina C e a TFG-Cis apresentaram mudanças significativas no pós-operatório de cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio quando comparadas a creatinina e a respectiva TFG estimada pelas fórmulas de Cockcroft-Gault e MDRD

Na fase de tolerância à glicose diminuída (TGD) já estão presentes vários distúrbios metabólicos característicos do diabetes mellitus tipo 2 e fatores de risco que predispõem à vasculopatia. Nosso objetivo foi o de verificar se indivíduos de nossa população, com TGD e normotensos, apresentam elevação da excreção urinária de albumina (EUA) e da depuração de creatinina (D Cr). Teste oral de tolerância à glicose padrão com dosagem de insulina foi realizado, classificando os participantes em dois grupos: com TGD e com tolerância à glicose normal (TGN). Urina do período noturno foi utilizada para a determinação da EUA (imunoturbidimetria) e da D Cr. Os dois grupos não diferiram quanto à EUA e à D Cr. A freqüência de microalbuminúria foi de 21,1 e 3,3%, respectivamente, para os grupos com TGD e TGN (NS). Concluímos que, nesta amostra da população brasileira, indivíduos com TGD, normotensos e com resistência à insulina não apresentaram microalbuminúria e hiperfiltração glomerular.

Groups of inbred alloxan-induced diabetic rats were treated with insulin (I), islets (IT), or pancreas transplantation (PT). Nondiabetic (N) and untreated diabetic (D) control groups were concurrently included. Each group was divided into five subgroups of 10 rats and killed after follow-up of 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. Clinical and laboratory parameters were recorded, and kidney ultrastructural and morphometric analyses performed in each 12-month subgroup, namely glomerular basement membrane (GM) thickening, podocyte number, and number/extension of slit diaphragms (S). Rats from the I group showed poor metabolic control of diabetes compared with N group control rats. However, successfully transplanted rats (IT and PT) had complete restoration to normal levels for all metabolic parameters. GM thickening was significantly higher in diabetic compared with control rats. In contrast, the numbers of podocytes and slits as well as slit extensions were significantly decreased. Insulin therapy did not prevent any alterations upon comparison of diabetic vs control rats. Despite good metabolic control in IT rats, the degree of kidney lesion control never compared with that achieved in PT rats. In this group all glomerular changes were similar to the age-dependent lesions observed in control rats. We conclude that either IT or PT may be a good option for diabetes treatment, although pancreas transplantation seems to be the most effective treatment to control chronic complications.

As determinações de creatinina e uréia têm sido utilizadas para avaliar o impacto do treinamento físico. Portanto, o principal objetivo do presente estudo foi verificar o comportamento das concentrações séricas e urinárias de creatinina e uréia em futebolistas profissionais ao longo de uma periodização. Participaram do estudo 18 jogadores de futebol que foram avaliados no início (T1), meio (T2) e fim (T3) de uma periodização específica. Os atletas foram submetidos às avaliações antropométrica e de determinação da capacidade aeróbia e da eficiência do metabolismo anaeróbio alático. As concentrações de creatinina e uréia dos atletas foram mensuradas no soro e na urina, além da taxa de filtração glomerular (TFG), determinada por três métodos distintos, sendo um independente e dois dependentes do volume urinário. A análise das respostas das variáveis em T1, T2 e T3 foi realizada por Anova one-way, seguida de post hoc de Newman-Keuls, assim como foi aplicado teste de correlação de Pearson. Para todos os casos o nível de significância prefixado foi de 5%. Houve melhora nos parâmetros aeróbio (p < 0,01) e anaeróbio alático (p < 0,01) ao longo da periodização, assim como foi verificada diminuição do volume urinário (p < 0,05) ao longo do estudo. As concentrações de creatinina apresentaram comportamento oposto quando determinadas no soro (p < 0,05) e na urina (p < 0,01) ao longo da periodização, não apresentando correlações significativas. Todos os métodos de determinação de TFG mostraram redução dos valores (p < 0,05) em resposta ao treinamento periodizado. Foram observadas correlações significativas entre todos os métodos em T1, e também em T2 e T3 apenas entre os métodos dependentes do volume urinário. de acordo com os resultados, é possível concluir que as concentrações de creatinina determinadas no soro e na urina de futebolistas profissionais foram sensíveis ao programa de treinamento desenvolvido; contudo, apresentaram comportamentos opostos. Isso provavelmente ocorreu devido à limitação metodológica da técnica de coleta de urina de 24h.

Acarbose is a competitive inhibitor of the intestinal alpha-glycosidases, that can delay absorption of intestinal carbohydrates causing their malabsorption. In the present paper we studied the effects of insulin, acarbose and their association on glomerular basement membrane thickening in alloxan-diabetic rats. Twenty-five male and female Wistar rats, approximately 3 months old at the beginning of the experiment, were assigned randomly to each of five experimental groups: normal control rats, alloxan-diabetic control rats, alloxan-diabetic rats treated with acarbose, alloxan-diabetic rats treated with insulin, and alloxan-diabetic rats treated with insulin plus acarbose. Alloxan was administered in a single iv dose of 42 mg/kg body weight. Insulin was given subcutaneously at doses of 18 to 30 IU/kg corrected daily on the basis of glycosuria and ketonuria. Acarbose was given mixed with rat chow in a dose of 50 mg/100 g chow. Body weight, water and food intake and diuresis, as well as blood and urine glucose were determined after 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months of treatment. Glomerular basement membrane (GBM) thickening was determined by electron microscopy at the same times. Clear clinical and laboratory signs of severe diabetes, with blood glucose levels above 200 mg/dl and urine glucose above 3000 mg/dl, were observed in all alloxan-diabetic control rats, in all periods of follow-up, whereas administration of insulin or acarbose reduced the blood glucose levels of treated groups. The most satisfactory control of blood and urine glucose was observed in animals treated with both insulin and acarbose. However, diarrhea was observed in diabetic rats treated with acarbose associated or not with insulin. GBM thickening was correlated with age in all groups. Beginning at six months after diabetes induction, the GBM of untreated diabetic rats was significantly thicker (mean +/- SEM, 4.446 +/- 0.45 mm) than that of normal rats (2.977 +/- 0.63 mm). Both insulin and acarbose prevented GBM thickening and their combination induced thickening similar to the age-dependent thickening observed for normal rats of the same age. We conclude that acarbose when combined with insulin may be a good option in the control of diabetes and its renal complications.

Records of the electrical impedance were obtained by means of surface electrodes placed on ventral and dorsal sides of the left kidney of anesthetized dogs. Changes of the renal electrical impedance resulted from alterations of the glomerular filtration rate caused by decrease of blood renal pressure to 80 and 50 mm Hg either due to constriction of the aorta or bleeding. The relation was established also by using physiological infusion. The results showed that changes of the means of renal electrical impedance were in opposite direction to changes in glomerular filtration rate. The electrodes employed were constituted of two parts: one fixed and another adjustable and flexible, allowing good contact with the renal surface independent of the kidney size.

A late survey of the renal function was performed in eighteen patients with paracoccidioidomycosis treated with amphotericin B, according to the glomerular filtration rate (RFG). The method was compartment analysis by single injection using EDTA Cr51, determined by its 'half biological life' and dosages of blood urea nitrogen and creatinine. The patients were seventeen males and one female. They were from 22 to 76 years old. Ten of these patients received 2 g of amphotericin B and eight of them received 4 g. There were no expressive difference between the two groups, taking into account age, dose in mg/kg of weight/day, time of conclusion of the treatment, urea, creatinine, glomerular filtration was smaller than the normal, and average of the half biological life of the EDTA Cr51 was large than the normal. The achieved results permitted us to consider that the amphotericin B determines deficit of renal function. However, by the present study, it hasn't been possible to affirm if the modifications are definitive.

Dopamine is an endogenous compound widely used in intensive care. It has a broad spectrum of action, on the cardiovascular system and urinary tract. Increased glomerular filtration rate, renal blood flow and fractional excretion of sodium and phosphorus are expected renal effects in normal individuals, but are poorly explored in veterinary medicine. This study was conducted to evaluate the glomerular function of dogs with renal disease submitted to continuous infusion of dopamine. Different doses of dopamine were administered in healthy and nephropathic dogs. Laboratory evaluations of creatinine clearance and urinary protein/creatinine ratio were performed during and after treatments. Creatinine clearance showed dose-dependent increase in healthy dogs. In dogs with renal disease, the dose of 1μg/kg/min GFR increased slightly, without changing the urine P/C and blood pressure, while the dose of 3μg/kg/min increased urinary protein excretion.

Bovine enzootic hematuria is characterized by the development of hemangiomatous lesions from several types of neoplastic processes, from epithelial and mesenchymal origin. In this research the histogenesis of neoplastic lesions found in bladder of bovines with enzootic hematuria from Caparaó microregion in the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil was determined. To accomplish this objective, immunohistochemical analysis was performed with primary antibodies: anti-vimentin, anti-cytokeratin, anti-CD31 and anti-uroplakin. Neoplasms found included urothelial carcinoma, in situ carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, hemangioma, myxoma e hemangiosarcoma. Immunohistochemical staining of cytokeratin in epithelial neoplasms and vimentin in mesenchymal neoplasms was significant (p<0.05). CD31 was positive in all the vessels of all samples, however, the staining was significant (p<0.05) in the tumor endothelial cells of the vascular mesenchymal neoplasms, as in hemangiomas and hemangiosarcomas. Uroplakin III staining was uneven in several neoplastic types and showed no significant difference (p>0.05). Most neoplasms showed an atypical uroplakin staining on urothelium and, in the case of hemangiosarcomas there was no staining of the urothelium at all. The Spearman statistical analysis revealed a positive correlation (r= 0.63, p= 0.05) between CD31 and vimentin and between cytokeratin and uroplakin (rs= -0.61, p= 0.05). It was concluded that biomarkers anti-cytokeratin, anti-vimentin and anti-CD31 are important for the diagnosis of neoplasms epithelial, mesenchymal and vascular mesenchymal, respectively. It is possible to use vimentin and CD31 in association in vascular mesenchymal neoplasms and cytokeratin and uroplakin in epithelial neoplasms. The uroplakin is an effective marker, not only for tumor diagnosis, but also to evaluate the urothelial integrity.
