Objective To observe the change of oxidalive stress indexes in the patients with diabetic perineuropathy (DPN), and investigate the protection role of glutathione (GSH) on neuroprotective effect. Methods The levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) and sensory nerve conduction velocity (SCV) were detected in 54 cases with DPN (DPN group) and 30 cases of health examination (control group). Fifty-four cases with DPN were divided into GSH group (given basic treatment and GSH 1.8 g/d) and CON group(given basic treatment and B vitamin) with 27 cases each by random-digits table. After treatment of 2 weeks, the levels of SOD, MDA and SCV were compared. Results The levels of MDA in DPN group were significantly higher than those in control group, while the activity of SOD was significantly lower than that in control group [(7.23 ±2.31) μmol/L vs. (4.87 ± 1.17) μmol/L, (59.72 ± 13.58) kU/L vs. (76.19 ± 7.55 ) kU/L](P＜ 0.01). After treatment, the level of MDA was decreased and the activity of SOD was increased in GSH group and CON group (P ＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between the two groups(P＞ 0.05). After treatment, the level of SCV was significantly increased in GSH group,while there was no significant difference in CON group (P ＞0.05). Conclusions Oxidative stress exists in DPN patients. The antioxidant treatment with GSH can improve impaired nerve and has a better effect of nerve protection than classical nerve nutrition therapy.

Objective To investigate high risk human papillomavirus(HR-HPV)prevalence among married women in Beijing and to study the high risk flactors.nethods During March 2007 to September 2008.a total of 6185 married women sampled from 137 communities in 12 districts were screened bv HR-HPV DNA test and cytogical test.The interview was carried out with unified questionnaires.The databage was set up and twice entered in EpiDam 3.0.After checked up,the data were analyzed in SPSS 15.0.Results (1) The HR-HPV infection rate was 9.89%.The HR-HPV infection rate of the city zone,the suburb and the exurb were 9.34%,10.51% and 9.51% (P>0.05).The HR-HPV infection rate of the native and the oudander were 9.53%,11.30% (P<0.05).(2) The age distribution of HR-HPV infection was that the rate was around 10% among 25 to 44 age groups,which was the highest(11.21%) in 30 to 34 age group;then the rate was descended as the age raising,the rate of 50 to 54 age group was the lowest(7.78%).(3) Multiple logistic regression showed that the related risk factors of HR-HPV infection mainly included 1000 RMB and above of family income per person per month.possessing more than 1 sexual partner of her husband,outlander and hish levels of education.(4) The prevalence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN)in HR-HPV positive group wag significantly higher than that in HR-HPV negative group(29.76% vs 3.32%,P<0.01).Conclusions(1)The HR-HPV infection rate among aged 25 to 54 years was 9.9% and there was no significant difference in area distribution.(2)The hish risk population which should strengthen screening was the married bearing-age women with high level of family income,outlander,high levels of education and her husband possessing more than 1 sexual partner.(3)HR-HPV infection is the main risk factor for CIN and cervical cancer.while does not provide a causal relationship with them.The high risk population should be checked regularly to understand the development of HR-HPV infection and CIN incidence.
