1.Suppressor of cytokine signaling-3, interleukin-6 and insulin resistance
Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 1985;0(01):-
Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)-3 is a negative regulator of interleukin (IL)-6 signal transduction. The results showed that IL-6 was not only correlated with insulin resistance but also capable to induce the expression of SOCS-3.Thus the high expression of SOCS-3 mRNA may contribute to one of the mechanisms of IL-6 dependent insulin resistance.

Objective To evaluate the effect of health education on schistosomiasis in Kunshan City,so as to provide the ev?idence for making the consolidating strategy in the late stage of interruption of schistosomiasis transmission. Methods The resi?dents,middle school students and elementary school students were randomly sampled from one community,one middle school and one elementary school of each of two towns and they were investigated with interviews and questionnaires for the implementa?tion of health education on schistosomiasis prevention and control. Results A total of 452 middle school students(232 cases) and primary school students (220 cases) were surveyed. The awareness rate of total schistosomiasis knowledge was 98.21%among the students(the awareness rate of basic schistosomiasis knowledge was 98.42% and the awareness rate of preventive schistosomiasis knowledge was 98.01%). Among the 220 elementary school students,the awareness rate of total schistosomiasis knowledge was 97.21%(the awareness rate of basic schistosomiasis knowledge was 97.60%and the awareness rate of preventive schistosomiasis knowledge was 96.82%). Among the 232 middle school students,the awareness rate of total schistosomiasis knowledge was 99.17%(χ2 =34.661,compared with the rate of the elementary school students)[the awareness rate of basic schistosomiasis knowledge was 99.20%(χ2=13.045,compared with the rate of the elementary school students)and the aware?ness rate of preventive schistosomiasis knowledge was 99.14%(χ2 =21.796,compared with the rate of the elementary school students)]. There were significant differences between the elementary school students and middle school students in above?men?tioned awareness rates(all P<0.001). There were schistosomiasis health education materials or teaching plans in all the four schools. Among the 402 residents surveyed,the awareness rate of total schistosomiasis knowledge was 98.87%. Conclusion The effect of health education on schistosomiasis prevention and control is very well,and the total awareness rate of schistosomia?sis prevention and control knowledge among the population has reached the goal(more than 95%)of the medium?and long?term planning of schistosomiasis prevention and control in Kunshan City.

Objective To explore the predicting value of peripheral blood CD20+ CD24hi CD38hi regulatory B cells (Bregs) on the prognosis of elderly patients with sepsis.Methods A prospective study was conducted. Septic patients aged > 65 years old, compliance with diagnostic criteria for Sepsis-3, admitted to emergency and emergency intensive care unit (ICU) of Shanghai East Hospital of Tongji University from April 2016 to February 2017 were enrolled. Procalcitonin (PCT), C-reaction protein (CRP) and lactate (Lac) were routinely measured. According to the worst clinical index value within 24 hours, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score were recorded. The concentrations of peripheral blood CD20+ CD24hi CD38hi Bregs were measured by flow cytometry at 1, 3 and 7 days after diagnosed in elderly patients. All patients with sepsis were followed up for 28 days and then divided into death group and survival group according to 28-day outcome. The difference of clinic data and Bregs were compared between the two groups. The significant different factors of elderly sepsis patients were analyzed by binary logistic regression analysis. The correlation between Bregs level and other indicators was analyzed by Spearman correlation. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the prognosis value of Bregs in elderly patients with sepsis.Results Fifty-eight patients were enrolled in the study, with 38 male and 20 female; age of (79.91±7.97) years; 32 in sepsis group, 26 in septic shock group; 35 deaths, 28-day mortality rate was 60.3%. APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score in death group exhibited much higher than that in survival group (APACHE Ⅱ: 18.14±4.52 vs. 14.91±3.56, SOFA: 8.80±4.56 vs. 6.35±3.00, bothP < 0.05), the Bregs was significantly decreased at 1, 3 and 7 days in death group [cells/μL: 0.70 (0.20, 1.40) vs. 1.50 (0.70, 2.20), 0.54 (0.20, 1.00) vs. 1.42 (1.10, 2.12), 0.25 (0.10, 0.50) vs. 0.80 (0.50, 1.00), allP < 0.05]. Correlation analysis showed that the concentrations of peripheral blood Bregs at 1 day in elderly patients with sepsis was negatively correlated with APACHE Ⅱ score (r = -0.351,P = 0.007), and it was not correlated with PCT, CRP, Lac or SOFA score. It was shown by binary logistic regression that Bregs [odds ratio (OR) = 1.865,P = 0.028] and APACHE Ⅱ score (OR = 0.853,P = 0.026) were independent risk factors for elderly sepsis outcome. It was shown by ROC curve analysis that the prognostic value of the levels of Bregs at 1, 3, 7 days and APACHE Ⅱ score were higher in the elderly patients with sepsis, and the area under ROC curve (AUC) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were 0.842 (0.647-0.954), 0.770 (0.564-0.911), 0.888 (0.703-0.977), 0.855 (0.661-0.961), respectively, allP < 0.01. The 7-day Bregs was most powerful to predict outcome, when the cut-off value was 0.50 cells/μL, the sensitivity was 72.73% and specificity was 86.67%. Conclusions The level of peripheral blood CD20+ CD24hi CD38hi Bregs could predict the clinical outcome of elderly patients with sepsis.
