Objective To investigate the features of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) in type 2 diabetic patients (T2DM)and to analyze its risk factors. Methods According to FSFI indexes in the sexual function questionnaire,227 female T2DM patients were divided into DM group without FSD [n=144,FSFI≥25] and DM+FSD group[n=83,FSFI<25]. 80 healthy women served as normal controls. The risk factors for FSD were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. Results The occurrence of FSD was 36.6%(83/227) in female T2DM patients. The levels of FSH,TSTO and LH were higher,and E2 was lower in DM+FSD group and DM group than those in NC group(P<0.01),but there was no statistical significance between DM+FSD group and DM group(P>0.05). The score of sexual desire[(2.54±0.58) vs (3.76±0.90) vs (4.59±1.22) score],sexual arousal[(2.30±0.42) vs (3.57±0.85) vs (4.81±1.00) score],vaginal lubricate[(3.35±0.29) vs (4.46±1.32) vs (5.14±0.83) score],orgasm[(2.75±0.68) vs (3.40±1.86) vs (4.02±1.25)score] and total score [(17.94±4.15) vs (24.71±6.33) vs (28.13±5.78) score] were lower in DM+FSD group and DM group than those in NC group. The score of sexual satisfaction[(3.45±1.68) vs (4.94±0.93),(4.99±0.86)score] and pain[(3.55±0.50) vs (4.58±0.47),(4.58±0.62)score] were lower in DM+FSD group than those in DM group and NC group(P<0.05),but there was no statistical significance between DM group and NC group(P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that age,BMI and HbA1c were risk factors for FSD in T2DM patients (P=0.029,0.001,0.022,respectively). Conclusion The occurrence of FSD is common in female type 2 diabetic patients. BMI and HbA1c are the main risk factors for FSD.

BACKGROUND: Thermotherapy has achieved remarkable therapeutic effect on patients with esophageal cancer. However, there are still some problems which cannot be answered today, such as the damage of esophageal mucosa during deep thermotherapy when metal stent is placed in esophagus. OBJECTIVE: To study the metal stent-caused damages to esophageal mucosa of pigs in radiofrequency hyperthermia. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Observational study which was performed in the Department of Tumor, Affiliated Hospital of Luzhou Medical College from October 2004 to January 2005. MATERIALS: 13 pigs weighing 35-40 kg were used in this study. Esophagus stent of memory alloy with membrane was provided by Zhiye Medical Apparatus Institute of Changzhou, China METHODS: Five points were located for measurement, i.e. the middle of the stent, the exit of the stent, 2 cm and 4 cm a distance from the exit and 4 cm from the entrance. Esophagus of 13 pigs was heated for 30 minutes by SR-1000 radiofrequency hyperthermia machine in frequency of 40.82 MHz, pole plate of 25 cm Ⅱ 25 cm and power of 500-700 W. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The esophageal mucosa was observed with naked eyes. And optical microscopy was used to observe the changes of the esophageal mucosa. RESULTS: Because one pig died of anesthesia and there were troubles of thermal detector lines in 4 pigs, only 8 pigs were included in the final analysis. Level of damage of esophageal mucosa on five temperature checkpoints was observed from grade 0 to 1 in naked eyes, and the difference of damaged level between five checkpoints was not obvious in statistics (H=2.0, P=0.157). Level of the damage was observed from grade 0 to 2 in microscope, and the difference was not obvious in statistics too (H=2.734, P=0.255). CONCLUSION: Influence of the metal stent on esophageal mucosa can be neglected in radiofrequency hyperthermia, and metal stent does not cause obvious mechanical damage or thermal damage to esophageal mucosa of pigs. It is safe and feasible to carry out radiofrequency hyperthermia on placed metal stent esophagus.

Objective To discuss the effects of repairing nasal ala defects by free transplantation of autogenous auricle composite tissue flap. Methods 50 cases with nasal ala defects were repaired by free auricular composite tissue flap transplantation from Janu 2003 to May 2013. The defects size was 0.5cm x 0.7cm~1.3cm x 1.5cm. According to the size of the defects, full thick wedge-shaped auricle composite tissue flap were cut off, then inserted into the nasal ala defects area and fixed stablely, the donor sites were sutured directly avoiding ear cartilage. Salvianolate and hyperbaric oxygen were used in postoperative treatment for 5-7 days. Results 48 cases achieved good results, 2 cases had partial necrosis of composite tissue flap after operation, also achieved good results after reoperation. Over 3 months~5 years follow-up, all cases had satisfactory results. The volume of auricle composite tissue flap reduced less than 10%. Surgical incisions had a linear scar, good color matching, nostril symmetry. All patients were satisfied with the overall appearance. Conclusions Autogenous auricle composite tissue flap free transplantation for repairing middle and small size of nasal ala defects can recover ala formation and structure very well, nasal appearance can be improved greatly with nostril symmetry. There is no hypertrophic scar in donor sites. This method is simple and easy,and is also a good method for repairing nasal ala defects.

Objective To investigate the regulatory effects of miR-146a on inflammation factors production in C ryptococcus neoformans treated THP-1 cells.Methods Cryptcoo ccus neoformans strains were heat killed .Fluorescence quantitative RTP-CR and ELISA were used to detect the levels of IL -1βand TNF-αin THP-1 cells treated with heat-killed Cryptococcus neoformans.In addition, the production of IL-1βand TNF-αwere analyzed before and after Dectin-1or TLR 4 blocked .THP-1 cell lines that were respectively transfected with miR-146 a mimics and inhibitors were constructed and the production of IL-1βand TNF-αin these cell lines were analyzed after interfered with Cryptococcus neoformans.Results With the interference of heat-killed Cryptococcus neoformans, the expression of miR-146a was up-regulated in THP-1 cells, but was down-regulated after Dectin-1 or TLR4 blocked.The expressions of IL-1βand TNF-αinduced by heat-killed Cryptococcus neoformans were enhanced in miR-146a mimics transfected THP-1 cells, but was inhibi-ted in inhibitors transfected THP-1 cells.Conclusion Heat-killed Cryptococcus neoformans could up-regu-late miR-146a expression in THP-1 cells via Dectin-1 and TLR.miR-146a could negatively regulate the ex-pressions of IL-1βand TNF-αinduced by Cryptococcus neoformans.
