Although previous studies related to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in childhood were predominantly ALT and uric acid level, the number of studies that have been handled in terms of insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) level or IGF-1 standard deviation score (SDS) is limited. In this study, all factors that may affect NAFLD, including IGF-1 level and IGF-1 SDS, were evaluated in two groups of children who were not statistically different from each other in terms of age, gender, weight, height, body mass index and puberty. This study was a cross sectional study. 36 children with evidence of fatty liver disease on ultrasound imaging and 38 children without it were included in the study. Anthropometric data, laboratory measurements and radiological results of all participants were evaluated. All factors that could affect NAFLD were evaluated by binary logistic regression analysis. Weight, weight SDS, body mass index (BMI) SDS, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), AST, ALT, GGT, uric acid, triglyceride, HDLcholesterol, IGF-1, IGF-1 SDS were evaluated in this model to predict NAFLD. In the statistical model, the percentage of predicting those with NAFLD, that is, the sensitivity, was 88.9%, while the detection rate of those without NAFLD, that is, the specificity, was 94.7%. IGF-1 level was found to be significantly lower in the group with NAFLD (p: 0.04), but there was no significant difference between the groups in terms of IGF-1 SDS (p: 0.10). There are conflicting results in studies examining the relationship between IGF-1 SDS and NAFLD. This may be due to ethnicity, regional differences, kit-specific laboratory reference ranges, or method of measurement. Laboratory measurements including appropriate parameters with a detailed physical examination can be used to predict the presence of NAFLD without the need for radiological examination.
虽然以往与儿童非酒精性脂肪性肝病(NAFLD)相关的研究主要是ALT和尿酸水平,但针对胰岛素样生长因子-1 (IGF-1)水平或IGF-1标准偏差评分(SDS)进行的研究数量有限。本研究对两组年龄、性别、体重、身高、体质指数、青春期均无统计学差异的儿童进行IGF-1水平、IGF-1 SDS等所有可能影响NAFLD的因素的评估。这项研究是一项横断面研究。36名在超声成像上有脂肪肝证据的儿童和38名没有脂肪肝证据的儿童被纳入研究。对所有参与者的人体测量数据、实验室测量和放射学结果进行评估。对所有可能影响NAFLD的因素进行二元logistic回归分析。在该模型中评估体重、体重SDS、体重指数(BMI) SDS、胰岛素抵抗稳态模型评估(HOMA-IR)、AST、ALT、GGT、尿酸、甘油三酯、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇、IGF-1、IGF-1 SDS以预测NAFLD。在统计模型中,预测NAFLD患者的百分比,即敏感性为88.9%,而非NAFLD患者的检出率,即特异性为94.7%。NAFLD组IGF-1水平显著降低(p: 0.04),但各组间IGF-1 SDS无显著差异(p: 0.10)。关于IGF-1 SDS与NAFLD之间关系的研究结果相互矛盾。这可能是由于种族、地区差异、试剂盒特定的实验室参考范围或测量方法。实验室测量包括适当的参数和详细的体格检查可用于预测NAFLD的存在,而无需放射检查。

The study aims to show that ondansetron, which is used safely in pregnant women, can cause serious side effects. Neural tube defects are among the most common congenital malformations of the central nervous system. It is known that genetic predisposition, environmental factors, and some drugs play an important role in the development of neural tube defects. Ondansetron is a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 receptor antagonist used in the treatment of cancer, nausea, and vomiting during pregnancy and after anesthesia. In the literature studies, it was not found that developmental anomalies were observed. Seventy-five free specific pathogen eggs were incubated for 32 hours and divided into five groups of 15 eggs each, including a control group. Ondansetron was administered to these five groups by sub-blastoderm route in 4 different doses with a Hamilton microinjector. At 48 hours of incubation, the embryos were dissected and examined morphologically and histopathologically. At the end of the study, a significant dose-dependent decrease was observed in crown-rump lengths, somite numbers, and mean the number of silver-dyed nucleolar regulatory regions (AgNOR) and total AgNOR / nuclear area ratios. Statistically significant differences were observed between the experimental groups in terms of neural tube closure (p <0.05). Ondansetron has been shown to affect neuronal development and vertebral growth in chicken embryos depending on increasing doses.
这项研究的目的是表明,孕妇安全使用的昂丹司琼可能会产生严重的副作用。神经管缺陷是中枢神经系统最常见的先天性畸形之一。已知遗传易感性、环境因素和某些药物在神经管缺陷的发生中起重要作用。昂丹司琼是一种选择性5-羟色胺-3受体拮抗剂,用于治疗癌症、妊娠期和麻醉后的恶心和呕吐。在文献研究中,未发现发育异常。将75个游离的特定病原体卵孵育32 h,分为5组,每组15个卵,其中包括一个对照组。用Hamilton微注射器按4种不同剂量经胚胚下给药给药。孵育48小时后,解剖胚胎并进行形态学和组织病理学检查。在研究结束时,观察到冠臀长度、体体数量、银染核仁调控区(AgNOR)的平均数量和总AgNOR /核面积比的显著剂量依赖性减少。实验组间神经管闭合时间差异有统计学意义(p <0.05)。昂丹司琼对鸡胚胎的神经元发育和椎体生长的影响取决于剂量的增加。
