ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical significance of inflammatory factors and adiponectin in type 2 diabetes milletus complicated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.Methods Two hundred and ten subjects aging from 25.0 to 65.0 years old,including 106 men and 104 women,were recruited into this study.They were divided into four groups: Forty cases of healthy control (NC),60 cases with newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2DM),65 cases with simple non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and other 45 cases with newly-diagnosed T2DM complicated with NAFLD.The physical examination was performed for each patient.Serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT),gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT),fasting plasma glucose (FPG),glycation hemoglobin A 1 c ( GHbA1c ),creatinine ( Cr),uric acid ( UA ),2 hours postprandic plasma glucose (2hPG),fasting insulin (FINS),lipid profiles were measured.Insulin resistance index (HOMAIR) was calculated.Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and adiponectin were also detected.Results The serum levels of ALT and GGT,body mass index and waist/hip ratio were higher in the NAFLD,T2DM with NAFLD patient groups than that in T2DM and NC group ( P ＜0.05or P ＜0.01 ).The serum levels of TG and LDL-C were significantly higher in T2DM,NAFLD and T2DM with NAFLD groups than that of NC group.And serum TG levels in T2DM with NAFLD group were higher than that of T2DM group (P ＜ 0.05).FPG and GHbAl c were higher in T2DM and T2DM with NAFLD groups than that of NAFLD and NC groups.The serum levels of TNF-α,hs-CRP and HOMA-IR were higher in T2DM,NAFLD and T2DM with NAFLD groups than that of NC group.T2DM with NAFLD group had higher levels of TNF-α,hs-CRP and HOMA-IR compared with T2DM group.However,serum adiponectin levels of T2DM,NAFLD and T2DM with NAFLD groups were lower than that of NC group.And it was lower in T2DM with NAFLD group when compared with NC group ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Adiponectin was negatively associated with TNF-α,hs-CRP and HOMA-IR (r =-0.635,-0.668,-0.752 respectively,P ＜ 0.0l ).But HOMA-IR was positively associated with TNF-α,hs-CRP( r =0.667,0.706 respectively,P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionInflammatory factors and adiponectin may play important roles in the pathophysiology and progression of T2DM and NAFLD.The protective effects of adiponectin may come from its anti-inflammatory activity to relieve insulin resistance for NAFLD.

Objective To study the effects of sulodexide on islet B-cell function in streptozocin induced di-abetic rats. Methods Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into normal control group (group C), dia-betic group without treatment(group D), and suledexide treatment group(group S), a single dose of streptozotocin were abdominally injected to establish the diabetic rat models. Each animal in sulodexide treated group was addition-ally fed with sulodexide of 10 mg/(kg·d) for 12 weeks,while the remained group (group C and D) were given normal water in the same period. After 12 weeks of treatment, fasting plasma glucose(FPG),fasting plasma insulin (FINS), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), thrombin time (TT), triglyceride (TG), Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), serum creatinine rates (SCr) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were measured. Insulin sensitivity index(ISI) and insulin resistant index (HOMA-IR) were calculated. Results After 12 weeks, the levels of TG, LDL-C and ALT had no significant difference between group D and group S, but were higher than those in group C (P <0.05);There were no significant difference of SCr levels among the three groups. Compared with the group C, APTT, PT, TT and ISI in group D and S were significantly decreased, HOMA-IR were significantly increased (P < 0.05). APTT, PT, TT and ISI in group S had significantly increased compared with that in group D, HOMA-IR was significantly decreased in group S compared with that in group D (P < 0.01). Conclusions Sulodexide can reduce insulin resistant, improve hypercoagulability and insulin sensitiv-ity in streptozocin induced diabetic rats. The effects to blood lipid, liver and renal functions in diabetic rats are not obvious.

[Objective] To investigate the clinical characteristics and risk factors of lower-extremity arterial disease in the patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). [Methods] One hundred fifty-one patients were investigated respectively. The patients were divided into two groups (NAFLD-Group and non-NAFLD group) by liver ultrasonography and disease history, then their clinical data were collected and compared in order to find the differences of biochemical indicators and the morbidity of lower-extremity arterial disease between two groups. [Results] Ninety-two cases (60.93%) were complicated with NAFLD. NAFLD group had higher levels of fast insulin and C peptide level, postprandial insulin and C peptide level, uric acid, body mass index (BMI), homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR) and lower level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and insulin sensitive index than those of without NAFLD (P<0.05). One hundred and one cases(66.89%) were complicated with lower-extremity arterial disease. The morbidity of lower-extremity arterial diseases was higher in NAFLD group than that of without NAFLD group (75% vs. 54.24%, P<0.01). [Conclusion] Both lower-extremity arterial disease and NAFLD are common complicated with type 2 diabetes. The morbidity of lower-extremity arterial diseases was higher in NAFLD group than that of without NAFLD group.

Objective To compare the excursion of blood glucose (BG) in the type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) plus glargine or human isophane insulin (HII). Methods A 1 : 1 randomization schedule assigned 30 type 2 diabetics inadequately controlled on OADs (fasting BG>9.0 mmol/L and HbA1C > 8.5%) to 2 groups additionally treated with glargine or HII. The insulin dose was titrated to achieve fasting capillary BG<6.0 mmol/L. Montoring BG with continuous glucose monitoring system, then the standard deviation of BG (SDBG), maximal excursion of BG (LAGE) and coefficient of variation (CV) of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) were calculated. Results SDBG (1.49±0.35 vs 1.73±0.46), LAGE (3.23±0.76 vs 3.73± 1.00) and CV-FPG (17.26±2.24 vs 20.33±3.21) were lower in glargine group than those in HII group (P< 0.05). No difference could be found in hypoglycaemia between two groups. Conclusion OADs plus glargine could make blood glucose more stable than OADs plus HII without increasing the incidence of hypoglycaemia.

Objective To investigate the relationship between dyslipidemia,obesity,insulin resistance (IR)and various degrees of non.alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and the risk factors of NAFLD.Methods Two hundred and sixty-eight patients were divided into three groups(non-NAFLD group,mild NAFLD group,moderate and severe NAFLD group)by liver ultrasonography.Body height(H),weight(W),waist circumference(WC),hip circumference(H)were measured.The levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG),glycosylated hemoglobin A_1c(GHbA_1C),serum total cholesterol(TC),serunl high density lipoprotein(HDL-C),serum low density lipoprotein(LDL-C),serum triglyceride (TG),alanine aminotransferase (ALT)and fasting serum insulin(FINS)were measured.Body mass index(BMI),the waist to hip ratio(WHR)and insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR)were calculated.Unconditional logistic regression model was used to test for the risk factors of NAFLD.Results BMI、WC、WHR、HNS、HOMA.IR、TC、LDL-C、TG and ALT in NAFLD group were significantly higher than those in non-NAFLD group (P<0.05).The levels of BMI、WC、WHR、HNS、HOMA-IR、 TG and ALT increased significantly in moderate and severe NAFLD group compared with mild NAFLD group(P<0.05).TG、WHR and HOMA.IR were the risk factors of NAFLD(P<0.05,OR=2.394,3.273,5.256).Conclusions NAFLD in patients with T2DM had remarkable dyslipidemia,overweight,central obesity and insulin resistance.TG、WHR and HOMA.IR were risk factors of NAFLD.
