Background and purpose:The incidence of hepatoma is high. The outcome of treatment on hepatoma is poor.So we investigated the effect and mechanism of a selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor celecoxib on the proliferation and apoptosis of SMMC-7721 hepatoma cell line. Methods:MTT assay was used to study the inhibitive effect of celecoxib on the growth of SMMC-7721 hepatoma cell. The effect of celecoxib on cell cycle and apoptosis on cells was studied by flow cytometry(FCM).Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to display the morphological change of the SMMC-7721 hepatoma cell . The biochemical character of apoptosis was viewed on the agarose gel electrophoresis.The expression of bax gene and bcl-2 gene were measured by immunohistochemistry.Results:The SMMC-7721 cells were cultured in media that contained 25,50,75,100 ?mol/L celecoxib,by means of MTT, the inhibition rate was(15?3)%,(34.6?2.4)%,56.8?1.0)%,(86.2?0.4)% respectively after 24 hours; but the inhibition rate was (33.4?0.7)%,(66.7?1.8)%,(76.1?2.4)%,(97.3?0.8)% respectively after 48 hours(P

Objective:
To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of abnormal ankle-branchial index(ABI)among community diabetic patients in Liangxi District of Wuxi.
Methods:
From April to October 2018,the community patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)were selected from 12 streets in Liangxi District by convenient sampling method. The general information,body mass index(BMI),fasting blood glucose and ABI of the patients were collected by questionnaire survey,physical examination and laboratory test. The influencing factors for ABI abnormality were analyzed by multinomial logistic regression models.
Results :
A total of 2 235 patients with T2DM were investigated,with an average age of(67.74±7.85)years old and an average course of disease of(10.25±7.38)years. There were 210 cases(9.40%)of low ABI,1 972 cases(88.23%)of normal ABI,and 53 cases(2.37%)of high ABI. The results of multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that systolic blood pressure(OR=1.021,95%CI:1.013-1.029),age(OR=1.081,95%CI:1.059-1.105),course of disease(OR=1.023,95%CI:1.004-1.041)and regular exercise(OR=0.499,95%CI:0.366-0.681)were influencing factors for low ABI;BMI(OR=1.120,95%CI:1.034-1.213)was a risk factor for high ABI.
Conclusions
The prevalence of abnormal ABI is high among community patients with T2DM in Liangxi District. Systolic blood pressure,age,course of disease,BMI and regular exercise are the influencing factors for ABI abnormality.

BACKGROUND: Diabetic morbidity can predict its progress tendency. National diabetic morbidity has been increased compared with previous level at present.OBJECTIVE: To compare the diabetic morbidity between populations with impaired glucose tolerance or normal blood glucose tolerance to analyze its correlative influencing factors.DESIGN: A cluster sampling survey in two communities of Liuzhou City Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region based on adults.SETTING: Department of endocrinology in a university hospital.PARTICIPANTS: Diabetic morbidity was investigated in 4 relative big unit communities of Liuzhou City between July and August 1994. The resident population of the communities was 11 886, which were all adults between 20 and 75 years old and lived in Liuzhou City for more than 5 years. Populations with either impaired glucose tolerance or normal blood glucose tolerance in 2 of the 4 unit communities were followed up in October 1999. Totally 9 230 individuals should be checked and 6 020 subjects were actually checked with the response rate of 65.22% (quite a few cases lost followed up due to unemployment and retirement, etc. ) . Inclusion criteria: Finally 5 539 subjects with complete data of two surveys entered into statistics. There were 5 237 normal individuals and 266 individuals with impaired glucose tolerance. And there were 3 177 males including 110 individuals with impaired glucose tolerance with an average age of(40 ± 12) years old, and 2 362 females including 156 individuals with impaired glucose tolerance with an average age of(41 ± 10) years old. Exclusion criterion: secondary diabetes.METHODS: Totally 5 539 subjects(including individuals with normal blood glucose or impaired glucose tolerance) who confirmed without diabetes in 1994 survey for diabetic morbidity in 2 unit communities of Liuzhou City Gugangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region received recheck in 1999 including blood glucose, body mass index(BMI), blood pressure and blood fat to analyze the impacts of each factor on diabetic morbidity.bidity among correlative risk factors.RESULTS: Totally 5 539 individuals were included into statistics. A totally of 46 of 5 237 normal individuals developed diabetes with the annual percent of conversion of 0.19%, while 50 of 226 individuals with impaired glucose tolerance developed diabetes with the annual percent of conversion of 3.84%, which had 20.9 times of correlative risk significantly higher than normal individuals(x2 = 1 063.1, P < 0. 000 1).CONCLUSION: The risk of diabetes is higher in individuals with impaired glucose tolerance than normal individuals. Age, BMI, hypertension, fasting blood glucose, blood glucose, and 1 hour blood glucose in Glucose tolerance test are risk factors of diabetic morbidity.

Objective To analyze the situation of HIV infection and its influencing factors among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Wuxi city, 2016-2019, and to provide evidence for prevention and control of HIV infections in MSM. Methods Snowball sampling and online methods were used to recruit subjects, and a face-to-face questionnaire survey was conducted among MSM by professionally trained investigators. Blood samples were collected for HIV tests. Results A total of 1 451 MSM were recruited in this study. The awareness rate of AIDS related knowledge was 93.52%. The positive rate of HIV was 5.86%. The analysis of demographic characteristics showed that the differences between different age groups (χ2=18.81, P<0.05), and different sexual orientations (χ2=28.84, P<0.05) were statistically significant. Analysis of high-risk behaviors showed that in the last 6 months, whether MSM had anal homosexual behavior (χ2=12.63, P<0.05), whether MSM had commercial anal homosexual behavior (=10.15, P<0.05), and whether MSM had heterosexual behavior (χ2=33.15, P<0.05) all had significant differences. There was no statistically significant difference in the positive rate of HIV antibody detection (P>0.05) for other factors. Conclusion It is necessary to strengthen health education and intervention measures among MSM.

Objective:
To compare and analyze the epidemiological characteristics of hospitalized elderly, young and middle-aged patients with severe burn in recent years, so as to provide reference for the prevention and treatment of elderly patients with severe burn.
Methods:
Relying on the entry system of epidemiological case data and biological sample of severe burn from multicenter in clinic, medical records of patients with severe burn, aged above 18, hospitalized in 8 burn wards from January 2012 to December 2015 were collected. Six hundred and fifteen patients who were more than 18 years old and less than or equal to 65 years old were included in young and middle-aged group (YM). Eighty-two patients aged more than 65 years old were included in elderly group (E). Data of age, gender, residence, education level, cause of injury, location of injury, season of injury, total burn area, occurrence and area of full-thickness burn injury, wound site, inhalation injury incidence and severity, post burn admission time, proportion of delayed resuscitation, proportion of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin grafting, preinjury systemic disease, system complication during hospitalization, length of hospital stay, outcome of treatment, and reason of abandoning treatment of patients were analyzed. Data were processed with chi-square test and Mann-Whitney
