Objective To explore the effect of the improved abdominal rotation card method in insulin injection. Methods A total of 100 hospitalized diabetes patients were randomly divided into control group (n=50) and observational group (n=50) according to the random number method. In the control group, insulin was injected to the subcutaneous tissue of abdomen with traditional method annular rotating method. Insulin was injected using improved abdominal rotation card method in the observational group. Compare accuracy and mastery rate of injection site rotation between the two groups. Compare fasting blood glucose (FBG), postprandial 2H blood glucose (PBG), HbA1c, the incidence of hypoglycemia and endermic induration between the two groups after three months. Results The nurses in the observation group had higher accuracy rate of the injection site rotation compared to the control group [98.6%(690/700) vs. 38.6%(270/700),χ2=584.66, P<0.01]. Mastery rate of the injection site rotation for the patients in the observation group were significantly higher than the control group [70.0% (35/50) vs. 20.0% (10/50), χ2=25.74, P < 0.01]. The incidence of endermic induration were significantly lower in observation group compared to the control group [2.0% (1/50) vs.16.0% (8/50), χ2=5.98, P < 0.01]. The incidence of hypoglycemia were significantly lower in observation group compared to the control group [4.0%(2/50) vs. 16.0%(8/50),χ2=4.00, P<0.01]. Conclusions The new abdominal rotation method in insulin injection can be a safe and effective therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Objective To investigate the effect of all trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) combining with Interferon α-2a on bladder tumor and the possible mechanisms. Methods Fifty female Wistar rats with bladder tumor were established and separated into 4 groups randomly that are DMSO group (A), IFN-α-2a group(B), ATRA group(C) and ATRA+IFN-α-2a group(D). Then each group was treated by drugs indicated. Finally, the weight of bladder, the stage and grade of tumor, the apoptosis and proliferation index of tumor were determined to estimate the effect of ATRA+IFN-α-2a. Results The body weights in group D are the highest and the bladder weights in group D are the lowest. The stages and grades of tumor in group D were statistically decreased compared with those in the other 3 groups. Accordingly, the apoptosis of cancer cells in group D was enhanced, whereas the proliferation index in group D was decreased significandy. Conclusion The effect of ATRA combined with Interferonα-2a on the bladder tumor is better than that of monotherapy.

OBJECTIVETo make sure of the harmfulness degree of the dust in geological prospecting occupation.

METHODSThe determination of respirable dust, total dust and the free silica concentrations was carried out at different working spots exposed to dust. Personal sampling equipment was used to collect the respirable dust. The data of respirable dust concentration in the research was compared to the historical data.

RESULTSAs for respirable dust concentration level, 47.95% of 765 silica dust spots of geological prospecting occupation in 9 provinces(autonomous regions) were beyond the criteria. The profession and work type of the highest dust concentration was chiseling and sampling of geological prospecting [from 1996-2000, the dust concentration was (6.15 +/- 3.12) mg/m3]. The ratio of respirable dust to total dust was high in geological prospecting workers. The FSiO2 contentin dust to which geological prospecting workers exposed was high too.

CONCLUSIONSThe respirable dust concentration of some types of work in geological prospecting occupation was obviously higher than the national criteria, especially in chiseling, sampling and drilling workers.

Objectives To investigate the effects of phytosterol intensive diet intervention on blood glucose, blood lipid and liver function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD). Methods Patients with NAFLD admitted to the department of endocrinology, the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University from January 2016 to June 2016 were recruited.We divided the groups according to the order of patient admission,with patients admitted from January to March who received conventional diabetes mellitus low-fat diet enrolled as control group,and patients admitted from April to June received extra phytosterol intensive diet on the basis of conventional diabetes mellitus diet as treatment group. The changes of blood glucose, blood lipid and liver function between two groups with a follow-up of six months before and after intervention were compared and analyzed. Results After intervention,the levels of fasting blood sugar(FPG)and blood glucose(2hPG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), cholesterol (TG), triglyceride (TC), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) of patients in control group(11.13 ± 3.17)mmol/L,(18.65 ± 6.21)mmol/L,(9.82 ± 1.69)%,(2.81 ± 1.43) mmol/L、(5.40 ± 1.14)mmol/L,77.27%(51/66),which were lower than those before intervention((8.51 ± 2.83)mmol/L,(10.39 ± 3.62)mmol/L,(7.78 ± 1.46)%,(2.18 ± 1.13)mmol/L,(4.99 ± 1.04)mmol/L, 90.91%(60/66),P<0.05,and FPG,2 hPG,HbA1c,TG,TC,LDL-C,ALT and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in the experimental group were(11.32 ± 3.64)mmol/L,(20.09 ± 4.83)mmol/L,(9.70 ± 2.12)%, (2.68 ± 1.74)mmol/L,(5.16 ± 1.10)mmol/L,(3.18 ± 0.92)mmol/L,(70.27)%(52/74),(86.49)%(64/74), which were significantly lower than those before intervention((7.37 ± 2.08)mmol/L,(9.20 ± 3.35)mmol/L, (6.75 ± 0.99)%,(1.86 ± 1.13)mmol/L,(4.69 ± 1.06)mmol/L,(2.67 ± 0.72)mmol/L, 91.89%(68/74), 98.65%(73/74), P<0.05, and the differences was statistically significant(t=4.584,9.329,7.349,2.823, 2.140,χ2=4.587, P<0.01 or 0.05 in control group;t=8.106,15.715, 10.826,3.393,2.651,3.755,P<0.01 in experimental group). The levels of FPG, 2 hPG and HbA1c were significantly lower in the experimental group compared with those in control group after intervention(P<0.05),and the positive-to-negative rate of fatty liver were found to be significantly higher (33.8%,25/74) than that (9.1%,6/66) in controls(P<0.05).There were not significantly differences in the level of TG,TC,high density lipoprotein(HDL-C), LDL-C, ALT and AST between the control group and experimental group(P>0.05). Conclusions Phytosterol intensive diet intervention can effectively reduce LDL-C,AST and the blood glucose level of type 2 diabetes patients with NAFLD, improving the positive-to-negative rate of fatty liver. Phytosterol intensive diet intervention can effectively reduce LDL-C, AST and the blood glucose level of type 2 diabetes patients with NAFLD,improve the positive-to-negative rate of fatty liver.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and epidemiologic characteristics of hypothyroidism among community population in Jiangsu province. Methods The residents who had lived for at least five years and aged more than 20 years old were sampled from six layers in urban and rural districts of Jiangsu province by a stratified cluster sampling technique. Serum was sampled from 7 122 subjects and sTSH was measured by chemiluminescence immunoassay, and FT3 and FT4 were determined in the subjects with abnormal sTSH level. Results (1) The crude prevalences of overt hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism were 0.66% and 7.53% respectively in total population, with the respective standardized rates of 0.43% and 6.28%. (2)The prevalences of hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism were significantly higher in females than in males (both P <0.05). (3) The prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism was significantly increased with advancing age in both female and males (P<0.05). Conclusion Comparing with hypothyroidism, subclinical hypothyroidism shows higher prevalence in Jiangsu province, and more attention should be paid to the follow-up and diagnosis of subclinical hypothyroidism.

The residents who had lived for at least 5 years and aged over 20 years old were sampled from urban to rural districts of Jiangsu Province with a stratified cluster sampling technique. B mode ultrasonography and thyroid function determination were carried out in 6 128 persons. The location, diameter, number, boundary, and calcification in thyroid nodules were described by using 7.5 MHz/50 mm transducer of thyroid ultrasonography. TSH was measured by chemiluminescence immunoassay. Free triiodothyronine(FT3)and free thyroxin(FT4)were measured when TSH was abnormal. The crude prevalence of thyroid nodules was 21.12% in total population, 14.55% in male, and 25.24% in female. The standardized prevalence was 15.69%, 11.20%, and 20.40%, respectively. The prevalence was lower in male than in female, and increased with age(P＜0.05). Thyroid nodules in Jiangsu Province were highly prevalent and more attention should be paid to the follow-up, early diagnosis, and treatment.

Objective To construct the diabetic home care platform and to explore its effects in follow-up man agement of patients with gestational diabetes mellitus.Methods The diabetic home care platform contained clientsides for both nurses and patients,who could use the platform via identification and binding technology.Totally 200 patients with gestational diabetes mellitus in outpatient department from November 2015 to December 2016 were recruited using convenience sampling.Patients were divided into the experimental group and the control group with 100 cases in each group based on the voluntary principle.Both groups received routine follow-up management,and the experimental group also used diabetic home care platform management.Results There were no differences in gestational weeks,mode of delivery,postpartum hemorrhage,other complications,fetal intrauterine distress,neonatal hypoglycemia,and deformity between two groups(P＞0.05).Rate of macrosomia in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05),and rate of breastfeeding was higher than the control group(P＜0.05).The total score of Diabetes Self-Care Activeties-6 and scores of each dimension in the experiential group were higher than those in the control group 8 weeks after intervention(P＜0.001);the total score of Problem Areas in Diabetes Scale and scores of each dimension in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Application of diabetic home care platform is helpful for fetal weight control,and can improve rate of breastfeeding,promote women's self-management behavior and emotional disorders.

Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of 20% glucose solution in the treatment of adult diabetic patients with hypoglycemia.Methods:A non-randomized controlled paired design trial was conducted. The diabetes patients with hypoglycemia (blood glucose < 3.9 mmol/L) who were admitted to the department of endocrinology and metabolism of Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University from December 2020 to May 2021 were enrolled. When the patients developed hypoglycemia for the first time, 75 mL of 20% glucose solution was pumped intravenously at a constant speed within 15 minutes, which was named the 20% glucose solution group. When the patients had hypoglycemia again, 30 mL of 50% glucose solution was pumped intravenously at a constant speed within 3 minutes, which was named the 50% glucose solution group. If the blood glucose was still ≤ 3.9 mmol/L at 15 minutes of hypoglycemia treatment, or the patients were uncomfortable due to too fast drip speed, it should be terminated immediately. The hypoglycemia treatment should be handled according to the Chinese guidelines for the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes (2020 edition). The peripheral blood glucose level and the range of increase at 15 minutes of treatment, the success rate of one treatment, the peripheral blood glucose values at 60 minutes after successful hypoglycemia treatment, the incidence of phlebitis and exudation after hypoglycemia treatment, and the pain of local blood vessels in patients with hypoglycemia treatment were analyzed and compared between the two groups. Results:A total of 65 patients completed the treatment of hypoglycemia with 20% glucose solution and the success rate of one treatment was 100%. The peripheral blood glucose value at 15 minutes of hypoglycemia treatment was (8.30±1.37) mmol/L, and the increased range was (4.86±1.30) mmol/L. The peripheral blood glucose value at 60 minutes after successful hypoglycemia treatment was (6.96±1.48) mmol/L, which indicated that 20% glucose solution could effectively increase blood glucose. Among 65 patients, 32 patients had hypoglycemia again, who were treated with 50% glucose solution, and the success rate of one treatment was 100%. When patients who received 50% glucose solution for hypoglycemia formed a paired design with the first 20% glucose solution treatment, the results showed that there was no significant difference in the peripheral blood glucose value and the increased range in blood glucose at 15 minutes of hypoglycemia treatment between the 20% glucose solution and the 50% glucose solution groups [peripheral blood glucose (mmol/L): 8.20 (7.70, 9.70) vs. 8.30 (7.80, 8.80), increase in blood glucose (mmol/L): 4.96±1.39 vs. 4.70±1.32, both P > 0.05], indicating that the glucose changing at 15 minutes of hypoglycemia treatment with 20% glucose solution was similar to that with 50% glucose solution. The peripheral blood glucose value at 60 minutes after successful hypoglycemia treatment of 20% glucose solution group was significantly lower than that of 50% glucose solution group (mmol/L: 6.37±1.04 vs. 7.20±1.36, P < 0.01), which meant that the blood glucose tended to be more stable. There was no phlebitis and exudation after hypoglycemia treatment in both groups. The pain score of 20% glucose solution group was 0, however, 3 patients in 50% glucose solution group complained of local vascular pain, and the pain score was 1. Conclusions:20% glucose solution can effectively treat hypoglycemia in diabetic patients, which has the same curative effect as 50% glucose solution and much safer. It can be used in patients with severe hypoglycemia.

Objective:The evidence-based and Delphi methods were used to construct the exercise program for hospitalized patients with diabetes foot to provide guidance for clinical practice.Methods:Evidence on exercise management of diabetic foot patients was systematically searched from BMJ Best Practice, UpToDate, Registered Nurses′ Association of Ontario and other domestic and foreign databases and professional association websites. The retrieval period was from the establishment of the database to April 2021. The quality of the included literature was independently evaluated, and the evidence of the literature meeting the quality standards was extracted and summarized to form the first draft of exercise program for inpatients with diabetic foot. After two rounds of Delphi expert letter consultation, the program items were revised, and the final draft of the exercise program for inpatients with diabetic foot suitable for clinical practice was formed.Results:The effective recovery rate of the two rounds of expert correspondence questionnaire both were15/15. The expert authority coefficient was 0.865 and 0.895 respectively. And the Kendall coordination coefficient was 0.232 and 0.291 (both P<0.01). An exercise program for inpatients with diabetic foot had been formed, including 5 modules(exercise evaluation, exercise prescription, exercise monitoring, post-exercise evaluation and exercise management), 12 items and 40 operational items. Conclusions:The exercise program for inpatients with diabetic foot constructed in this study is scientific and clinically applicable, which provide scientific guidance for clinical medical staff to carry out exercise practice.
