Objective To investigate the effects of Xiaoke Wan on serum adiponectin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes metlitus. Methods A total of 60 2TDM patients with deficiency of both qi and yin syndrome were recruited into a control group and a treatment group randomly, 30 cases in each group. The treatment group was treated with Xiaoke Wan, and the control group was treated with glibenclamide. After 32 weeks, the changes of FPG, 2hPG, HbAIc, FINS, C-P, APN, HBCI,IRI and improvement of symptoms were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with glibenclamide, Xiaoke Wan can significantly improve the patients' symptoms, reduce the level of IRI (t=-1.590, P=-0.036), and increase serum APN (t=1.918, P=0.002). Conclusion Xiaoke Wan can significantly improve symptoms, reduce fasting blood glucose and 2 hour postprandial blood glucose, recover the secretion of adipouectin, decrease insulin resistance in 2TDM patients with deficiency of both qi and yin.
2.Clinical manifestations and advances in hereditary research of alternating hemiplegia of childhood
International Journal of Pediatrics 2014;41(3):229-232
Alternating hemiplegia of childhood(AHC) is a hereditary disease characterized by hemiplegia spells,abnormal eye movements,dystonia and cognitive impairment.There are three phases of the disease.Each phase has its unique clinical symptoms:phase 1-abnormal eye movements and dystonia;phase 2-hemiplegia spells; phase 3-permanent cognitive impairment.The severity of cognitive impairment depends on the time of onset of hemiplegia spells:the earlier the onset is,the worse outcome will be.No effective treatment has been established.Thetreatments currently include:avoiding predisposing factors and taking drugs such as flunarizine to prevent hemiplegia attacks,in the inter-ictal stage;and sedation during hemiplegia attacks.According to the latest research,AHC is caused by the de novo mutation of gene ATP1A3.
3.Clinical research of 1 . 8 mm microincision phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation combined with trabeculectomy
International Eye Science 2015;(5):832-835
?AlM:To evaluate the effect and safety of 1. 8mm coaxial microincision phacoemulsification - trabeculetomy with ultra-thin intraocular lens ( lOL ) implants for treating glaucoma complicated with cataract, and to compare with the traditional 3. 0mm small phacoemulsification-trabeculetomy with foldable lOL implantion.
?METHODS: ln this prospective study, 36 patients ( 36 eyes) with glaucoma and cataract in lnner Mongolia Autonomous Regian People’s Hospital were collected and randomly divided into 2 groups. For the small incision group: 18 cases ( 18 eyes ) underwent 3. 0mm coaxial incision phacoemulsification-trabeculetomy with foldable lOL implantion; ln th microincision group: 18 cases ( 18 eyes ) underwent 1. 8mm microincision phacoemulsification-trabeculetomy with ultra-thin lOL implantion. The two groups were recorded for 1wk, 1 and 3mo of visual acuity, corneal endothelial cell density, surgically induced astigmatism, intraocular pressure ( lOP ) , filtering bleb and complications. Pearson’s Chi-square test ande t-test were used to determine differences between the two groups.
?RESULTS:At 1wk postoperatively, visual acuity in the microincision group was better than that of small incision group, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0. 05). At 1 and 3mo, the difference in corrected visual acuity between the 2 groups had no significant difference (P>0. 05). At 1wk, 1 and 3mo, there was a significant different between the 2 groups in surgically induced astigmetism (P<0. 05). At 1wk postoperatively, there was a significant difference in corneal endothelial cells density between 2 groups (P<0. 05). But there were no significant difference at 1 and 3mo ( P > 0. 05 ). lOP reduced after surgy ( microincision group: 15. 26 ±3. 12mmHg, small incision group: 14. 57±2. 86mmHg), there was no significant difference between the 2 groups (P>0.05). There was no significant different between the 2 groups in blebs (P>0. 05). Neither iris injury, posterior capsule rupture nor anterior chamber bleeding complications was found in any groups.
?CONCLUSlON: TBy compared with traditional 3. 0mm coaxial small incision phacoemulsification -trabeculectomy with foldable lOL implantion, 1. 8mm microincision phacoemulsification-trabeculectomy withe ultra- thin lOL implantion can effectively reduce the astigmatism operation. This operation is safe, effective, convenient surgy for treating cataract and glaucoma.

5.Study of correlation of serum adiponectin with type 2 diabetes and its macrovascular complications
Chinese Journal of Diabetes 2010;18(3):207-208
Objective To explore the correlation of adipnectin with T2DM and its macrovascular complications. Methods The levels of serum adiponectin, plasma glucose, serum lipids, and fasting insulin were measured in normal subjects, type 2 diabetic patients and type 2 diabetic patients with macrovascular complications. Results (1) The serum adiponectin level was significantly lower in type 2 diabetic patients than in normal subjects, and was the lowest in type 2 diabetic patients with macrovascular complications. (2) Serum adiponetin level was negatively correlated with BMI,HOMA-IR, HbA_1c,TG and fasting insulin level. Conclusions The results suggest that lower serum adiponectin level may be related to macrovascular complications in type 2 diabetic patients.

7.Effect of Gingko Flavonoids on Cardiac Function and Contents of SOD and MDA in Myocardial Tissue in Rats with Heart Failure
China Pharmacist 2014;(10):1637-1639
Objective:To explore the effect of gingko flavonoids on the content of SOD and MDA and cardiac function in the rats with heart failure. Methods:Totally 40 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 5 groups by random number table meth-od, namely the blank group, the model group, low-dose gingko flavonoids group, high-dose gingko flavonoids group and metoprolol group. Except the blank group, all the other groups were subcutaneously injected 300 mg·kg-1 isopropyl adrenaline for two days to make the heart failure model. After that, metoprolol group was given metoprolol 20 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 , the ginkgo flavonoids group was given 250 or 500 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 ginkgo flavonoids extract, the other groups were given physiological saline with the same volume, and the treatment course was 8 weeks. After the treatment, cardiac function indices ( IVST, LVPWT, LVEDD, LVESD and LVEF) , SOD and MDA levels in cardiac muscle tissue and the pathological integral, and myocardial pathologic morphology characteristics were deter-mined. Results:LVEDD and LVESD of the two ginkgo flavonoids groups and metoprolol group were obviously improved compared with those of the model group, while LVEF, IVST and LVPWT were significantly decreased (P<0. 05), showing that the cardiac function was improved after the treatment. The levels of SOD were raised, while MDA and the pathological integral were decreased significantly in the two ginkgo flavonoids groups compared with those of the model group (P<0. 05), with a dose-dependant relationship. Conclu-sion:Ginkgo flavonoids have certain protective effect in heart failure rats, and the mechanism may be related to reducing the level of lipid peroxidation and improving the body antioxidant enzyme activity.
8.Iodine intake and thyroid function during pregnancy
Chinese Journal of Endemiology 2016;35(3):161-165
Iodine is an essential micronutrient for pregnant women,which affects thyroid function of pregnant women and fetus,and thus influences the intellectual development of offspring.Severe iodine deficiency could lead to overt hypothyroidism and fetal cretinism.In the areas implemented the universal salt iodization (USI) program,mild to moderate iodine deficiency and iodine excess may coexist during pregnancy.Iodine deficiency could lead to hypothyroxinemia in pregnant women.Iodine more than adequate and iodine excess could increase the prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism.The effect of iodine supplementation on thyroid function in pregnant women with mild to moderate iodine deficiency may result in different conclusion.Therefore,it is important to maintain optimal urinary iodine concentration to prevent thyroid dysfunction.
9.Shan Guangzhi's Experience for the Treatment of Bone Metastasis of Prostate Cancer
Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2016;40(2):131-133
Objective] To sum up professor Shan Guangzhi's clinical experience for the treatment of bone metastasis of prostate cancer. [Method] From following professor Shan Guangzhi in the clinical practice and further studying his medical cases,summarizes his experience in the treatment of prostate cancer bone metastases,and sums up his academic thoughts for the treatment of the disease.[Result] Professor Shan Guangzhi thinks that deficiency of the kidney is the basic pathogenesis of bone metastases of prostate cancer,at the same time accompanied by spleen deficiency and qi-movement disturbance. To prostate cancer patients with bone metastases, pain is the most common symptom,the reason for it is that stagnation leading to pain and poor nutrition lead to pain. The treatment should focus on two aspects,both the inner treatment and the external treatment; the internal treatment regards invigorating Qi and tonifying the kidney as the basis,also pays attention to regulate spleen and stomach,dredges the body down;the external treatment regards promoting blood circulation to remove meridian obstruction as the rule,it can effectively relieve patients' pain,and cooperates with diet,as a whole to improve the quality of survival in patients. [Conclusion]Professor Shan Guangzhi's experience in the treatment of bone metastasis of prostate cancer has exact curative effect,worth learning and promotion.
10.The prostate cancer diagnosis value of prostate-specific antigen change quantity before and after antibiotic treatment in patients with abnormal prostate-specific antigen
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2015;38(3):192-194
Objective To investigate the prostate cancer diagnosis value of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and free prostate-specific antigen (FPSA) change quantity before and after antibiotic treatment in patients with abnormal PSA.Methods Eighty-five patients with elevated PSA were selected,and the patients were treated with antibiotic (levofloxacin intravenous drip for 1 week).The PSA and FPSA levels were detected before and after treatment.All of the patients underwent prostate needle puncture biopsy.The relation between the PSA,FPSA change quantity before and after treatment and the puncture biopsy positive rate were analyzed.Results The PSA and FPSA levels after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment:(5.82 ± 1.61) μ g/L vs.(7.71 ± 1.32) μ g/L and (0.80 ± 0.14) μ g/L vs.(0.98 ± 0.17) μ g/L,there were statistical differences (P < 0.05).In 85 patients,10 cases were puncture biopsy positive.After treatment,no PSA change was in 8 cases,PSA decreased < 10% was in 27 cases,PSA decreased 10%-30% in 24 cases,PSA decreased 31%-50% was in 18 cases,and PSA decreased > 50% was in 8 eases,and puncture biopsy positive were 1 case (1/8),4 cases (14.8%,4/27),3 cases (12.5%,3/24),2 cases (2/18),0case,respectively.Conclusions The PSA can decrease after antibiotic treatment in patients with abnormal PSA,and small decrease of PSA does not mean that the risk of prostate cancer disappears,but the PSA decrease > 50% after antibiotic treatment means the risk of prostate cancer decreases,which may be closely observed.In patients unable to tolerate or unwilling to accept the prostate needle puncture biopsy,the PSA change quantity before and after antibiotic treatment can help to diagnose prostate cancer.
