Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2005;9(24):213-215
BACKGROUND: Psychological disorders, such as depression and anxiety are relevant to pathogenesis and management of type 2 diabetes mellitus.OBJECTIVE: It was designed to investigate the influence of improving depression and anxiety in diabetes on metabolism of blood glucose.DESIGN: It was a randomized controlled comparative study.SETTING: It was conducted at the Cousulting Center for Clinical Psychology and the Endocrinology Department of Southwest Hospital Affiliated Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA .PARTICIPANTS: Totally 43 inpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in the Endocrinology Department of Southwest Hospital Affiliated toThird Military Medical University of Chinese PLA were selected from October, 1999 to November 2000. All of them participated the investigation voluntarily, 24males and 19 females, with an age of 51±9 years old. They were randomly divided into 2 groups, 23 in experimental group and 20 in control group.METHODS: For experimental group, besides routine medications for diabetes, patients also Accepted anti-depression and anti-anxiety treatment, including paroxetine (20 mg, taking after breakfast everyday) and Alprazolam (0.4 mg, taking at noon, at evening and before sleep everyday). For control group, patients only Accepted routine medication for diabetes. Patients in the two groups were assessed before medication and after 4 weeks medication by Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS). They were identified as depression and anxiety according to the Scales. Reduction rate of SDS/SAS score was used to assess the therapeutic effects: When the reduction rate was 50%-100%, the medication was significantly effective, when it was 25%-49% the treatment was effective, and when it was less than 25%, the treatment was noneffective.Reduction rate =(pre-treatment score-post-treatment score)/post-treatment score×100%. The fasting blood glucose level, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose level and the Glycosylated Hemoglobin (GHB, HbAl) were measured before treatment and after 4 weeks medication. Meanwhile, preprandial blood glucose level and 1-hour postprandial blood glucose level (6 times per day) were detected before treatment and at the 10th, 20th and 30th day during treatment. Reduction rate of blood glucose-(pre-treatment blood glucose level-post-treatment glucose level)/pre-treatment blood glucose level.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: These were main outcome measureglucose ①SDS/SAS scores, fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose and GHB before treatment and after 4 weeks treatment were measured in two group, ② and reduction rate of blood glucose.RESULTS: Six cases were omitted, 5 was in experimental group for financial pressure, intolerance to side effects of paroxetine and fears of the addiction of psychotropic drugs; the other one was in control group due to drop-out. There were 37 patients finished the investigation, 18 in experimental group and 19 in control group.①Comparison of SDS score/SAS core: After 4 weeks medication, it was observed that the post-treatment scores were significantly lower than pre-treatment scores in experimental group compared to control group[(41.05±7.05,41.88±10.57); (59.80±10.24,55.03±8.31 ), (t=2.41, 2.21, P < 0.05)].②Comparison of fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose and reduction rate of blood glucose: After 4 weeks medication, the fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose in experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group(t=2.11,2.98, P < 0.05-0.01)and the reduction rate of fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose in experimental group were significantly greater than those in control group (t=2.94,2.93,P < 0.01). ③Comparison of GHB:After 4 weeks medication,the posttreatment GHB level in experimental group were significantly lower than pre-treatment GHB level[(8.2±2.0)%,(9.1±1.9)%, (t=2.14, P < 0.05)].CONCLUSION: Anti-depression and anti-anxiety drugs not only can alleviate depression and anxiety symptoms significantly, but also can improve blood glucose metabolism. This may be attributed to an effect of anti-depression and anti-anxiety drugs in increasing the compliance of the patients to the medication for diabetes and decreasing the insulin resistance induced by negative moods.

5.Tea polyphenols inhibit the incremental effects of sulfur dioxide derivatives on sodium currents in cardiomyocytes
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(02):-
AIM:To probe into the toxicological mechanism of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and its derivatives on cardiovascular system.METHODS: Effects of tea polyphenols (TP) on the increase in sodium current (INa) induced by SO2 derivatives in the cardiomyocytes were studied using the whole cell patch-clamp technique.RESULTS: ① The increase in INa induced by SO2 derivatives was inhibited by treating the cells with TP at different concentrations (10, 20 or 50 mg/L) in a dose dependent manner. At concentration of 50 mg/L, TP completely inhibited the increase in INa by SO2 derivatives. ② SO2 derivatives led to shift left of the activation curve. After application of TP at dose of 50 mg/L, the curve showed resumed significantly. ③ TP changed the inactivation process significantly. Before and after the application of SO2 derivatives, the half-inactivation voltage of INa was -(71.94?0.23) mV and -(65.79?0.69) mV (n=8, P0.05).CONCLUSION: TP inhibits the incremental effects of SO2 derivatives on INa, suggesting that the toxicity of SO2 on cardiomyocytes of rat is induced by free radical.

Chinese Journal of Health Policy 2015;(8):34-38
Objective:To put forward some suggestions by comparing the current situation in both private and public hospitals. Methods:Comparing the basic information, scale, human resource and medical service management situation between the private and public hospitals by analyzing the 2014 Beijing health authorities report. Results:There are 355 private hospitals, 76. 1% of them are not rated and 59. 7% are not appointed for the medical insur-ance, and 82. 8% need to rent the land. Although the number of private hospitals is more than that of the public ones, their actual beds and health resources respectively account for only 20. 2% and 16. 4%. Besides, their in-come, assets and services also account for only about 10%. Conclusions:There is a big gap between the private and public hospitals in terms of scale, human resources and service ability. The Government should implement the policy about the ratings, medical insurance and the use of land which is given to support the private hospitals, and speed up the diversified medical model.

9.Survey and analysis on policy environment of non-public hospitals
Chinese Journal of Health Policy 2017;10(5):59-63
In this paper, 172 non-public hospitals have been investigated covering east, central and western regions with structured and semi-structured questionnaire and group interviews. We found that the health insurance policies were the most concerned policies by non-public hospitals, accounting for 26.5% of the total. We also found that non-public hospitals from different areas, levels profit nature have different policy expectations, for example Eastern regional institutions wanted to make a breakthrough of the planning policies, the central region wanted to change the health personnel policy, while the western region is considered to be limited by land policy. Tertiary hospitals were more concerned about research projects and land policy, and secondary hospitals were more concerned about access policy. There were 44.8% of the surveyed institutions considered that regulatory policywasmore stringent public hospitals and public hospitals, and there were no difference between profit and non-profit hospitals. According to the survey results, this paper puts forward suggestion that we should implement more targeted policies, purchasing more services from non-public hospitals and enhanced supervision. Considering the survey results research team puts forward sensitive advice as: provide preferential policies in according with different kinds of institutions reinforce purchasing service and enhance non-public hospitals supervision.

Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2017;41(6):502-505
[Objective] To discuss Professor JI Wei's clinical experience in treating ankylosing spondylitis.[Methods] To expound Professor JI Wei's academic thoughts and clinical experience in ankylosing spondylitis from aspects of etiology,pathogenesis,and syndrome differentiation and treatment variation, summarizing the characteristics of her prescriptions and ways of treatment as well as exemplifying them. [Results] Professor JI Wei believes that the basic pathogenesis of this disease is kidney deficiency and governor vessel vacuity,with wind,coldness,dampness,heat,phlegm,and blood stasis obstructing channels and collaterals. In her opinion,the major task of the early- and middle-term of this disease is to dispel wind and eliminate dampness and to alleviate impediment and free the vessels,and that of the late-term is to supplement the kidney and reinforce the governor vessel and to transform phlegm and disperse blood stasis. When treating the disease,we should correlate all four examinations,differentiating carefully the primary from the secondary, paying attention to the unique use of aconitum,monkshood,triptolide and other toxic drugs,as well as the black snake,scorpion,centipede and other animal medicinals,and attaching importance to ankylosing spondylitis complicated with inflammatory bowel disease ,treatment of uveitis and syndrome. [Conclusion] Professor JI Wei's clinical experience in treating ankylosing spondylitis is effective and worthy of wide application.
