Objective To investigate the effect of liraglutide and metformin hydrochioride on overweight diabetic patients because of poor glycemic control.Methods Forty-four overweight patients with poor glycemic control were randomly divided to the control group,the liraglutide group and the metformin hydrochioride group.Patients in control group were given diet and exercise control,in liraglutide group and the metformin hydrochioride group were given subcutaneous injection liraglutide,metformin hydrochioride oral treatment respectively for 12 weeks.Body mass index(BMI),fasting blood glucose (FBG),2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2 hPBG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were measured.Results Compared with pretreatment,FBG,2 hPBG and HbA1c of patients in liraglutide group and metformin hydrochioride group were lower after treatment,and there was significant difference between the two group and the control group after treatment(P ＜ 0.05).BMI of patients in liraglutide group was (24.61 ± 3.47) kg/m2,lower than of the control group((25.37 ± 4.70) kg/m2,P ＜ 0.05).2 hPBG of patients in the liraglutide group was (7.13 ± 3.85)mtmol/L,lower than that of the metformin hydrochioride group ((8.03 ± 4.33) mtmol/L,P ＜ 0.05).FBG level in metformin hydrochioride group ((6.31 ± 3.45) mmol/L) was lower than that of the liraglutide group ((6.98±2.97) mmol/L),but the difference was not statistically significant(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Liraglutide and metformin hydrochioride treatment can effectively reduce weight and blood sugar of the overweight diabetics.The effect of liraglutide to reduce postprandial blood glucose and weight of the patient is more significant than of metformin hydrochioride.

Objective To investigate the effects of small volume resuscitation on hemodynamics and visceral perfusion in dog model of hemorrhagic shock. Methods Twenty-four dogs were hemorrhaged to hold mean arterial blood pressure at 45-55 nun Hg for 45 minutes, and then eight dogs were resuscitated with 6 ml/kg of hypertonic saline (HS group) solution and the other eight resuscitated with 6 ml/kg of hypertonic saline-hydroxyethyl starch (HSS group) solution. The rest eight dogs were set as control and resuscitated with normal saline (NS). Hemodynamics and gastrointestinal intramucosal pH (pHi) were detected after fluid resuscitation. Results (1) All three kinds of solutions could improve early hemodynamics and visceral perfusion. But 30 minutes after fluid resuscitation, the hemodynamics of dogs in HS group, HSS group and NS group began to decrease, with more obvious decrease HS group and NS group compared with HSS group. (2) pHi of three groups began to decrease 120 minutes after fluid resuscitation, but the level of arterial lactate remained unchanged. Conclusions (1) HS has the similar effect as NS in aspect of resuscitation, and HSS is better than HS and NS.(2) pHi is an ideal marker in monitoring the visceral perfusion and has higher sensitivity than arterial lactate.

Objective To explore the effect of IL-1? and IL-6 on MMP-3 gene expression in human coronary artery smooth muscle cells.Methods We used IL-1?(20 ?g/L) and IL-6(10 ?g/L) to stimulate human coronary artery smooth muscle cells,which were co-culture for 0,2,4,8,24,36 h.IL-1?(0,5,20,40 ?g/L) and IL-6(0,5,10,50 ?g/L) were used to stimulate human coronary artery smooth muscle cells,which were co-cultured for 6 h.Then we detected the gene expression by fluorescent quantitation PCR.Results In the same concentration of IL-1? and IL-6,gene expression was up-regulated at 2 h,at 8 h the expression reached the peak,then began to descend.In different concentration of IL-1? and IL-6,gene expression was up-regulated with the dose of IL-1? and IL-6(IL-1?: r=0.907,P=0.000;IL-6: r=0.919,P=0.000).There were significant differences in MMP-3 expression among different groups(IL-1?: F=24.047,P=0.000;IL-6: F=14.081,P=0.001).There were no significant differences in matrix metalloproteinase-3 between IL-1? 20 and 40 ?g/L groups(P=0.154) and between IL-6 5 ?g/L and 10 ?g/L(P=0.292).Conclusion It suggests that IL-1? and IL-6 can promote MMP-3 gene expression in human coronary artery smooth muscle cells,and it may be one of the mechanisms of inflammation effect in acute coronary syndrome.

Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the effects and mechanisms of plant-derived oleuropein on GDM mice.Methods Oleuropein was administered to GDM mice at the dose of 10 mg·kg-1·d-1.Body weight and blood glucose were recorded.The levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1)were measured by ELISA and RT-qPCR to assess the inflammation level in GDM mice,the activation of Adenosine 5′-monophosphate-activated protein kinase signaling pathway was measured by Western blot.Gestational outcome was analyzed through comparing litter size and birth weight.Results Oleuropein attenuated the elevated body weight of GDM mice and efficiently reduced blood glucose,and restored insulin sensitivity.Oleuropein treatment also reduced oxidative stress and inflammation levels,activated AMPK signaling pathways in the liver tissues of GDM mice,and significantly improved gestational outcome in mice.Conclusion Oleuropein is effective in alleviating symptoms of GDM and improving gestational outcome in the mouse model.This effect is achieved by attenuating oxidative stress and inflammation,which is mediated by the AMPK signaling pathway.

BackgroundThe existing tools in China for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint do not sufficiently consider the specialty in psychiatric practice， and the scale items are somewhat cumbersome to use， which together restrict their further promotion and application. Accordingly， there is an urgent need for developing a more scientific assessment tool. ObjectiveTo construct a scale for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint and to verify its reliability and validity， so as to provide a generic tool for the assessment. MethodsBased on the theoretical framework of the knowledge-attitude-practice model， the preliminary scale was formed through systematic literature review， qualitative interview and Delphi method. From July to December 2021， a stratified sampling was utilized to select 729 psychiatric nurses from tertiary， secondary and primary （including unclassified medical institutions and grassroots hospitals） psychiatric hospitals in Guangdong Province. The formal scale was developed through item analysis， exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The validity of the scale was evaluated by content validity and structure validity， and the reliability was verified by procedures including Cronbach's α coefficient， test-retest reliability， and split-half reliability. ResultsA total of 12 items of three dimensions （knowledge， attitude， practice） were included in the scale for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint. The scale-level content validity index （S-CVI） was 0.941， and the item-level content validity index （I-CVI） ranged from 0.812 to 1.000. Exploratory factor analysis extracted three common factors， and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 62.948%. The confirmatory factor yielded adequate fit. Cronbach's α coefficient was found to be 0.887 for the scale， 0.819 for knowledge dimension， 0.842 for attitude dimension， and 0.831 for practice dimension. The split-half reliability and test-retest reliability for the scale were 0.712 and 0.922， respectively. ConclusionThe scale shows satisfactory reliability and validity， which can be used to assess psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint. ［Funded by Guangdong Clinical Teaching Base Teaching Reform Research Project （number， 2021JD119）］
