    Although 30% of individuals diagnozed with colorectal cancer(CRC) are reported a family history of the disease, only 5% to 6% carry germline mutations in genes associated with known hereditary cancer syndromes. The evaluation and management of families affected with CRC can be complicated by variability in disease phenotypes and the sensitivity of genetic tests is limited. In this review, we examine what is currently known about familial CRC and what we have yet to learn, and explore how novel genomic approaches might be used to identify additional genetic and epigenetic factors implicated in heritable risk for cancer.

    Hyperphosphatemia is an independent risk factor for mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The prognosis of patients with CKD can be improved by effectively controlling the hyperphosphatemia. At present, the main measure of controlling the level of phosphorus includes limitting  dietary phosphorus intake, oral administration of phosphorus and dialysis. Among them, oral intestinal phosphate binding agent is the most convenient and effective method to reduce phosphorus in CKD patients.

    Heart failure (HF) is highly prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and endstage renal disease (ESRD) and is strongly associated with mortality in these patients. However, the treatment of HF in patients with CKD is unclear, as there is very little strong evidence to support any recommendations. Guidelines for the management of HF in the general population may not apply entirely to those with CKD, since such patients,particularly those with severe renal impairment, were quite often excluded from most of RCTs that served as a rationale for these guidelines.

    Chronic kidney diseases (CKD) are very common in clinical work,including glomerulonephritis,pyelonephritis,nephrotic syndrome,renal tubular interstitial disease,diabetes kidney disease, hypertension, and renal vascular disease and others. Patients with CKD are susceptible to infectious disease. And infection will always prompt chronic renal failure due to deteriorated kidney function. Infection is  usually  a direct cause of death for patients with CKD. Therefore, more knowledge about the risk factors and characteristics of CKD is helpful to treat the infection and improve the prognosis of patients with CKD.

    Treatment strategy in diabetic patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD) includes lifestyle  intervention, glycemic control, blood pressurelowering therapy, lipidlowering therapy, antiplatelet therapy and renal replacement therapy. All treatments follow the principle of safety, effectiveness and individualization. Lifestyle intervention focuses at the restriction of salt and protein intake. Drug selection and dose adaptation should be based on the pharmacokinetic characteristics and the renal function.  Linagliptin, glipizide and pioglitazone can be used through the CKD process without dose adjustment.  RAAS inhibitors should be considered as an initial therapy for hypertension. Statin is recommended in diabetic patients with CKD of stage 1 to  4. Aspirin is recommended as the first choice for antiplatelet therapy and clopidogrel is an alternative for aspirin in patients with clear intolerance or contraindications for aspirin. Dialysis is initiated in patients with diabetes on the same criteria as in those without diabetes.

    ObjectiveTo investigate the relation between homocysteine (Hcy), Nterminal Btype natriuretic peptide,structure and function of the left ventricular in elderly patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) . MethodsCHF group included 84 elderly patients with CHF, who were hospitalized in Cardiology at Xuanwu Hospital. According to the criterion of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class,CHF group was divided into three groups, cardiac function grade Ⅱ included 34 cases, grade Ⅲ 38 cases, grade Ⅳ  12 cases. At the same time, control group enrolled 78 cases of healthy people, who had health check in the hospital. Hcy  and NTproBNP were detected,the left ventricular enddiastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ) were measured in two groups using color Doppler ultrasound. CHF group was treated with routine therapies,and recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide(rhBNP),first given 1.5 μg/kg loading dose, and then intravenous pump   0.01  μg·k-1·min-1 for 72 h.After treatment  for 7 days, the clinical data and laboratory results were collected. The data of two groups were compared and correlations were analyzed. Results①Hcy and NTproBNP in CHF group were significantly higher than those of control group(P<0.05); ② Hcy  and NTproBNP were the highest in  group of cardiac function Ⅳas compared with the groups of heart function Ⅱand Ⅲ(P<0.05); and Hcy and NTproBNP in group of cardiac function Ⅲ were higher than those of cardiac function Ⅱ group(P<0.05); ③Hcy and NTproBNP  sharply decreased after the heart failure symptoms improved(P<0.05). However, there were no significant differences in LVEDD, and LVEF before and after the treatment (P>0.05). ④There were positive correlation between the level of Hcy and NTproBNP(r=0.586,P<0.05), LVEDD(r=0.284,P<0.05),and the level of Hcy was negatively correlated with LVEF(r=-0.492,P<0.05).ConclusionThe level of Hcy  is increasing with the aggravating of heart failure and it has great relativity with NTproBNP, LVEDD and LVEF, so it can reflect the severity of heart failure.

    ObjectiveTo investigate the significance of adiponectin and visfatin joint monitoring in predicting heart failure after PCI in acute myocardial infarction. MethodsA total of 157 cases of AMI patients undergoing PCI were selected. According to whether heart failure happened after PCI, the patients were divided into occurrence group (n=62) and nonoccurrence group (n=95). Forty cases of healthy were selected as control group. The echocardiography and blood biochemical examination data of all subjects were collected. In all AMI patients after PCI the next day and the control group in medical examination day, the serum levels of visfatin and APN were detected by using automated enzymelinked fluorescence analyzer. ResultsThe LVDs in occurrence group was greater than that in nonoccurrence group and control group, while LVEF was less than that of nonoccurrence group and control group(P<0.05). LDLC, CKMB, cTnI, NTproBNP, CRP, WBC and NE in occurrence group and nonoccurrence group were higher than those in control group, and  CKMB, cTnI and NTproBNP in occurrence group were higher than those in nonoccurrence group(P<0.05). The levels of APN in occurrence group and nonoccurrence group were lower than that of control group, while the levels of visfatin were higher than that of control group(P<0.05), the level of APN in occurrence group was lower than that of nonoccurrence group, while the level of visfatin was higher than that of nonoccurrence group(P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum APN level in occurrence group was negatively correlated with TC, LDLC, CKMB, cTnI, CRP and NE (P<0.05), and serum visfatin level was positively correlated with  TC, LDLC, CKMB, cTnI, NTproBNP, NE and LVDs (P<0.05). ROC curve showed that  the serum APN level in AMI patients after PCI can predict the occurrence of heart failure APN<13.67  g/L,the sensitivity was 64.2%, specificity  87.1%. Visfatin>6.29  mg/L, serum visfatin level showed the  sensitivity  90.3%, specificity  77.9%. ConclusionThe serum level of APN in AMI patients after PCI was reduced, while visfatin was elevated. They could be as indicators to predict heart failure occurring after PCI.

    The evidence based medicine for clinical diagnosis and treatment of acute exacerbation of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (AEIPF) is insufficient. So far, there is still lack of specialized and systematic expert consensus for AEIPF clinical diagnosis and treatment. Recently, British scholars developed a consensus statement for the definition, diagnosis, and treatment of AEIPF using Delphi technique, especially put forth some advice on the support treatment, use of antimicrobial agents, immunosuppressive agents, anticoagulant,and anti fibrosis drugs, also rose step treatment, discharge planning, longterm management suggestions,et al. This paper will introduce related expert consensus, in order to provide practical reference for chinese clinicians to manage AEIPF.
