Objective To investigate the effect of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) on stress hyperglycemia in patients after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Methods Patients matched inclusion and exclusion standards were divided into two groups. The patients after PD before the implementation of ERAS programme were named as the control group (40 cases). The patients after PD with the implementation of ERAS programme were named as the experimental group (52 cases). The fast blood glucose (FBG) in postoperative day (POD) 1, 3, 7 and the volatility of capillary blood glucose during postoperative 3 days were compared between the two groups. Results The FBG in POD1, POD3, POD7 were (8.27 ± 1.99), (6.78 ± 1.22), (5.97 ± 1.21) mmol/L in the experimental group respectively, and the FBG in POD1, POD3, POD7 were (10.46 ± 5.17), (7.88 ± 2.98), (7.29 ± 2.94) mmol/L in the control group respectively, there were significant differences between two groups (t=2.545, 2.219, 2.683, all P<0.05). The volatility of capillary blood glucose during postoperative 3 days in the experimental group were (3.47± 1.98), (3.16 ± 1.46), (2.74 ± 1.49) mmol/L respectively, and the volatility of capillary blood glucose during postoperative 3 days in the control group were (4.13±2.36), (3.26±1.59), (4.07±2.74) mmol/L respectively, no significant differences were found in the volatility of capillary blood glucose in POD1 and POD2 between the two groups (t=1.479, 0.308, all P > 0.05), while significant differences were found in the volatility of capillary blood glucose in POD3 between the two groups (t=2.739, P<0.05). Conclusions It can be concluded that ERAS may be useful to decrease stress hyperglycemia and the volatility of capillary blood glucosein patients after PD, and accelerate the recovery of patients after PD.

Objective To study the effects of RNA interference(RNAi)-mediated silencing of mitofusin-2 (Mfn2) gene on glycornetabolism and insulin resistance in BALB/c mice. Methods Mfn2 short hairpin RNA (shRNA) and negative control green fluorescent protein(GFP) -expressed plasmid vectors were constructed. 44 mice were randomly divided into transfection group (Mfn2) and negative control group (HK). 1.5 ml GFP-expressed plasmid(negative control or Mfn2 shRNA,75 μg for each mouse)was injected into the mice in 5 seconds through vena caudalis. Five days later, intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT) and intraperitoneal insulin tolerance test(IPITT)were performed to evaluate glycometabolism and insulin sensitivity. D-3-[3~H]-glucose in PBS buffer were injected via the tail vein. Blood samples were taken at specific time points. Radioactivity was measured in all samples with liquid scintillation counter. The rates of hepatic glucose production in vivo were calculated. Mfn2 protein expression in hepatic tissue was detected by Western blot. Results Compared with HK mice, the Mfn2 expressions of Mfn2 mice decreased markedly(8.05±0.15 vs 8.56±0.01 ,P<0.05). The fasted blood glucose leves [(6.95±0. 83 vs 4.68±0. 29) mmol/L,P<0. 05] in Mfn2 mice were higher than those in HK mice. The insulin sensitivity of Mfn2 mice decreased markedly compared with HK mice. The rate of hepatic glucose production was significantly elevated in Mfn2 mice [(49.53±16.31)μmol·kg~(-1)·min~(-1)],compared with negative control mice[(24.91±4.07)μmol·kg~(-1)·min~(-1),P<0.05].Conclusion The down-regulatd expression of Mfn2 induces glycometabolic disorder and insulin resistance in BALB/c mice. Mfn2 plays an important role in maintaining glucose homeostasis in vivo.

Objective To observe the effect of simvastatin on bone metastasis of breast cancer in nude mice model.Methods Sixty mice were divided into three groups randomly with 20 in each group.Mice were inoculated with MDA-MB-231 cells into the left cardiac ventricle.After 7 days,mice were treated with either simvastatin,saline,or nothing twice per week for 19 days.The area of osteolytic metastases was subsequently measured in long bones of all mice using an image analysis system.After sacrifice,parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) concentrations in bone marrow from all mice were determined using a two-site immunoradiometric assay.Osteoclast number expressed per millimeter of tumor/bone interface was assessed using an OsteoMeasure System.Measured data were compared with analysis of variance,and P ＜ 0.05 for the difference was statistically significant.Results The area of osteolytic lesions was significantly lower in mice treated with simvastatin compared with mice receiving saline and no treatment (0.51 ±0.18 mm2 vs 2.13 ± 1.24 mm2 vs 2.29 ± 1.22 mm2 ; F =15.600,P =0.002 ; F =15.673,P =0.001).In addition,treatment with simvastatin decreased the concentrations of PTHrP in bone marrow plasma (0.98 ±0.20 pmol/L vs 2.11 ±0.31 pmoL/L vs 1.99 ± 0.29 pmol/L; F =61.469,P ＜ 0.001 ; F =58.274,P ＜ 0.001) and the osteoclast numbers per millimeter of tumor/bone interface (4.00 ± 1.73 vs 11.40 ±4.93 vs 10.91 ± 3.87 ; F =17.820,P =0.001 ; F =17.184,P =0.002) compared with controls.Conclusion Simvastatin may reduce the production of PTHrP of breast cancer cells,which suppresses the development of destructive bone lesions as well as the growth of breast cancer cells in bone.

Objective To explore the significance of changes of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9),interleukin-6 (IL-6),and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-oα) protein level in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of children with viral encephalitis (VE).Methods The concentration of neuron-specific enolase (NSE),structural proteins 100B (S100B),and MMP-9,IL-6,TNF-α in the CSF of VE children were detected by an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay,and the correlations of them were analyzed.Results NSE,S100B,MMP-9,IL-6,TNF-α protein expression could be found significantly higher than those in the control group,and there were significant differences according to statistics expression trends(all P ＜0.05).The NSE protein expression was significantly positive related with S100B in the VE group (r =0.467,P =0.009),and the concentration was markedly negative related with the duration of viral encephalitis (r =-0.472,P =0.008).MMP-9,IL-6 protein expression were significantly positive related with NSE,S100B respectively (r =0.698,P =0.00 ; r =0.559,P =0.00 ; r =0.812,P =0.00 ; r =0.664,P =0.00).TNF-α protein expression was positive related with CSF S100B(r =0.363,P =0.049),but there was no correlation between TNF-α and NSE (r =0.245,P =0.193).Conclusions The neurons and the neuroglial cells are damaged in the viral encephalitis children.MMP-9,IL-6,TNF-α protein may participate in the pathological damage process of nerve cells in VE children in different degrees.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance of isolated pathogens in neonatal sepsis. Methods The results of blood culture and drug susceptibility test in neonates sepsis from January 2012 to June 2013 were retro-spectively analyzed. Results One hundred and thirty-two strains were detected in the blood samples, with 100(75.76%)Gram-positive bacteria, 30 (22.73%) Gram-negative bacteria and 2 (1.52%) fungus. Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were the three most common pathogens. Gram-positive cocci was strongly resistant to penicillin (100.00%), erythromycin, selectrin and ampicillin/sulbactam (62.50%-100.00%), but still sensitive to vancomycin and teico-planin. The resistance rate of Gram-negative bacilli to ampicillin was 100.00%, and the resistance rate to cefatriaxone, selectrin and cefuroxime was 61.54%-100.00%. The resistance rate to imipenem and piperacillin/tazobactam was lower. Conclusions The selection of sensitive antibiotics should be based on the pathogens and drug resistance testing for the treatment of neonatal sepsis.
