Periodontitis is a critical risk factor for the occurrence and development of diabetes.Porphyromonas gingivalis may participate in insulin resistance(IR)caused by periodontal inflammation,but the functional role and specific mechanisms of P.gingivalis in IR remain unclear.In the present study,clinical samples were analysed to determine the statistical correlation between P.gingivalis and IR occurrence.Through culturing of hepatocytes,myocytes,and adipocytes,and feeding mice P.gingivalis orally,the functional correlation between P.gingivalis and IR occurrence was further studied both in vitro and in vivo.Clinical data suggested that the amount of P.gingivalis isolated was correlated with the Homeostatic Model Assessment for IR score.In vitro studies suggested that coculture with P.gingivalis decreased glucose uptake and insulin receptor(INSR)protein expression in hepatocytes,myocytes,and adipocytes.Mice fed P.gingivalis tended to undergo IR.P.gingivalis was detectable in the liver,skeletal muscle,and adipose tissue of experimental mice.The distribution sites of gingipain coincided with the downregulation of INSR.Gingipain proteolysed the functional insulin-binding region of INSR.Coculture with P.gingivalis significantly decreased the INSR-insulin binding ability.Knocking out gingipain from P.gingivalis alleviated the negative effects of P.gingivalis on IR in vivo.Taken together,these findings indicate that distantly migrated P.gingivalis may directly proteolytically degrade INSR through gingipain,thereby leading to IR.The results provide a new strategy for preventing diabetes by targeting periodontal pathogens and provide new ideas for exploring novel mechanisms by which periodontal inflammation affects the systemic metabolic state.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of probiotics combined with bismuth quadruple therapy （BQT） on clinical efficacy、gastrointestinal adverse reactions and intestinal flora in Helicobacter pylori （HP） positive patients. MethodsThe patients who were positive for HP from May 2023 to July 2023 in the department of gastroenterology of Shanghai first people's hospital were randomly divided into2 groups with 40 people in each group. The probiotic group was given 2 weeks of quadruple therapy with probiotics and standard BQT， followed by 4 weeks of oral probiotics after quadruple discontinuation. The placebo group was given 2 weeks of probiotic placebo and standard BQT， followed by 4 weeks of oral probiotic placebo. ¹³C urea breath test was used to evaluate the clinical efficacy， gastrointestinal symptoms rating Scale was used to evaluate the gastrointestinal adverse reactions of patients before and after the intervention， and microbial diversity 16S rDNA sequencing technology was used to detect the level of intestinal flora of patients before and after the intervention. ResultsThere was no significant difference in the eradication rate between the two groups （P>0.05）. Before the intervention， there was no significant difference in the scores of the gastrointestinal symptom rating scale between the probiotic group and the placebo group. After the intervention， patients in the probiotic group had significantly lower pain scores on acid reflux （1.10±0.30 vs 1.35±0.53， P<0.05） and stomach or abdominal hunger than in the placebo group （1.07±0.26 vs 1.30±0.52， P<0.05）. Through the before-and-after comparison of the probiotic group， the scores of abdominal pain （1.24±0.44 vs 1.58±0.71， P<0.05）， stomach or abdominal hunger （1.07±0.26 vs 1.27±0.45， P<0.05） and dry and hard stool （1.24±0.49 vs 1.48±0.75，P<0.05） were significantly lower in the probiotic group than before the intervention in the probiotic group. ConclusionProbiotics combined with BQT can improve the gastrointestinal adverse reactions and intestinal flora disorders in the process of quadruple drug therapy， but it does not improve the eradication rate of HP.

Objective: To explore the effect of miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) on mandible position in the treatment of adult skeletal Class Ⅰ malocclusion with maxillary transverse deficiency. Methods: In this retrospective study, 20 cases of adult skeletal Class Ⅰ malocclusion with maxillary transverse deficiency treated with MARPE in our hospital from July 2019 to March 2022 were selected as research objects. CBCT data of three time points before treatment (T0), immediately after expansion (T1) and six months after retention (T2) were collected. The head position was standardized and calibrated by Dolphin software, and then mandible landmarks (left and right Condylion, left and right Gonion, Menton) were positioned. The linear distance changes of each landmark relative to the reference plane of coronal plane, axial plane and sagittal plane were measured, which represented the sagittal, vertical and horizontal displacement of mandible respectively. Repeated measurement ANOVA and LSD multiple comparison were used to evaluate the position change of each landmark. Results : The Menton and right Gonion rotated clockwise at T1, and relapsed to the initial position at T2. No lateral displacement of Menton was found. Conclusion When MARPE is used to treat skeletal Class Ⅰ malocclusion with maxillary transverse deficiency, it causes a transient clockwise rotation of the mandiblar. The mandible does not show sagittal, vertical and horizontal position changes in long-term evaluation.

Objective:To study the efficacy and drug-related adverse reactions of long-term appli-cation of biological anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) to patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), and provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of AS patients who were followed-up for more than 5 years in the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology of Peking University Shenzhen Hospital. The patients treated with bDMARDs alone or combined with traditional antirheumatic drugs were included as the treatment group, while those who did not receive biological or non-biological antirheumatic therapy were included as the control group. The data collected included clinical sym-ptoms, inflammatory biomarkers, imaging results, drug applications and drug-related adverse reactions, etc. The counting data were tested by χ2 test, the measurement data in normal distribution was tested by t test, and the measurement data that not normally distributed was tested by Mann-Whitney U test. Paired test was used for statistical processing before and after treatment. Results:We collected the data of 114 eligible patients, including 64 in the treatment group and 50 in the control group. There were no significant differences in baseline data between the 2 groups, including mean follow-up time, course of disease, age, sex ratio, HLA-B27 positive rate, morning stiffness duration, night pain, peripheral arthritis, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), and imaging. After 5 years, patients in the treatment group had shorter morning stiffness [(3±7) min vs (26±37) min, t=4.827, P<0.01], lower nighttime pain rates [(3/64, 4.8%) vs (29/50,58.0%), χ2=38.329, P<0.01], lower ESR level [(14±14) mm/1 h vs (20±18) mm/1 h, t=2.102, P=0.038], lower CRP level [(7±8) mg/L vs (14±19) mg/L, t=2.431, P=0.017], and lower progression rate of sacroiliac arthritis [(18/64, 28.1%) vs (35/50, 70.0%), χ2=19.786, P<0.01], than the control group. The main drug-related adverse reactions in the treatment groupincluded reversible leucopenia, elevated transaminase level, redness and swelling at the injection site. Conclusion:Biologics treatment for more than 3 consecutive years can effectively control the clinical symptoms of most AS patients, reduce inflammatory indicators and delay the imaging progression of the sacroiliac joint. Without treatment, the imaging progress of the sacroiliac joint in AS patients could be 70% after 5 years.

Objective:To observe the long-term effects of conventional disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (cDMARDs) in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and drug-related adverse reactions, and provide reference to clinical treatment and assessment.Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed for AS patients with more than 10 years follow-up records in the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology, Peking University Shenzhen Hospital. The AS patients enrolled were treated with cDMARDs, non-steroid anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs), and glucocorticoidsonl only. The treatment group was treated continuously for at least 3 years, and the control group was untreated or treated for less than 3 months. Clinical symptoms, inflammatory indicators, imaging results and drug-related adverse reactions of all patients were collected for statistical analysis. The counting data were tested by χ2 test, the measurement data in normal distribution was tested by t test, and the measurement data that not normally distributed was tested by mann-whitney U test. Paired test was used for statistical processing before and after treatment. Results:A total of 166 eligible patients were included, including 111 in the treatment group and 55 in the control group. There were no statistical significant differences between the treatment group and the control group at baseline including the mean follow-up time, symptomatic disease course, age, sex ratio, human lymphocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 positive rate, duration of morning stiffness, pain at night, peripheral arthritis, ESR, CRP and imaging data. After 10 years, the treat-ment group had shorter morning stiffness[(8±18) vs (22±34), U=2 228, P=0.008], less nocturnal pain [(2/1.9%) vs (19/36.5%), χ2=37.037, P<0.01], lower ESR level [(14±13) vs (20±19), t=2.249, P=0.026], lower CRP level [(6±6) vs (10±11), t=2.154, P=0.033], lower incidence of peripheral arthritis [(23/20.7%) vs(25/45.5%), χ2=10.946, P=0.001] and lower sacroiliac arthritis progression rate [(28/25.2% ) vs (46/83.6%), χ2=50.922, P<0.01], and lower spinal progression rate [(8/7.2%) vs (51/92.7%), χ2=117.407, P<0.01] compared with the control group. The differences between the two groups was statistically significant. The main medications and drug proportions in the treatment group were as follows: sulfasalazine (100%), methotrexate (86.5%), NSAIDs (98.2%), glucocorticoid (78.4%) and thalidomide (62.2%). The main drug-related adverse reactions that occurred during the treatment included dizziness, abnormal menstruation, and reversible liver dysfunction. Conclusion:The combination of cDMARDs can effectively control the clinical symptoms of most AS patients, reduce inflammation indicators, delay the progression of sacroiliac joint and spinal damage, and have no serious drug-related adverse reactions. Almost all of the untreated AS patients have radiographic progression of the sacroiliac joint and spine.

Objective To observe the clinical characteristics of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients with hyperuricemia (HUA), and to understand the correlation between AS and HUA, so as to improve the understanding of AS patients with HUA. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out in patients with the diagnosis with AS from November 2012 to August 2016. Patients were divided into two groups based on complicated with and without HUA. The clinical manifestations, inflammatory indicators, imaging manifest-ations, treatment and outcomes of the two groups were statistically analyzed, and the follow-up results of some patients with HUA were analyzed. The chi-square test was used for the counting data. The measurement data in line with the normal distribution were tested by t test, and the measurement data in non-normal distribution were tested by Mann-Whitney U test. Results Three hundred and sixty-two patients with AS were collected, consisting of 288 males (79.6％) and 74 females (20.4％), aged from 14 to 72 years, a course of disease was 3 months to 40 years. There were 87 cases (24.0％) with hyperuricemia, 77 cases were male (88.5％, 21.3％of all AS patients), and 10 were female (11.5％, 2.8％ of all AS patients). Shorter morning stiffness time [(13 ±31) min and (22 ±48) min, Z=-2.231, P=0.026], lower IgM level [(1.4 ±1.3) g/L and (3.0 ±4.3) g/L, Z=-2.040, P=0.041], and lower erythrocyte sedimentation rate [(25±17) mm/1 h and (33±22) mm/1 h, t=-2.617, P=0.007] in the HUA group when compared with patients without HUA. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant. Four cases (4.6％) had gout arthritis in the group with HUA, all were male, blood uric acid level all>420 μmol/L. There were 7 cases (8.0％) of urolithiasis in the group with HUA, and 24 cases (8.7％) of urolithiasis in the group without HUA, but there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of urolithiasis between the two groups. None developed hypertensive disease, heart disease, nephropathy, or diabetis. Conclusion The incidence of hyperuricemia is high in AS, and with lower disease activity, and fewer complications.

Objective: To compare the clinicopathological characteristics of second primary lung cancer following breast cancer and lung metastases from breast cancer, and then to analyze the risk factors in breast cancer patients with second primary lung tumor. Methods: Clinical data of 55 breast cancer patients with second primary lung tumor and 205 breast cancer patients with solitary pulmonary metastasis in Shandong Cancer Hospital from January 2006 to January 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The risk factors of primary lung cancer following breast cancer were analyzed using logistic regression model. Results: Second primary lung cancer in patients with first breast cancer accounted for approximately 21.2%(55/260) of pulmonary malignant solitary nodules, and 0.84%(55/6 580) of all breast cancer patients. The median intervals between the diagnosis of second primary lung cancer or lung metastasis and first breast cancer were 52 months and 42 months, respectively. These two groups showed significant difference between age, time interval between diagnoses, breast tumor size, axillary lymph node metastasis, estrogen receptor, molecular subtype (luminal B and triple-negative) and history of radiotherapy (P<0.05 for all). A multivariate logistic regression model confirmed that age (OR=1.088, P<0.001), breast tumor size(OR=0.480, P<0.001), and radiotherapy history (OR=3.460, P=0.004) were all independent factors for second primary lung cancer. Conclusions For isolated pulmonary nodules in patients with breast cancer, especially for those with elder age, larger tumor size and radiotherapy history, we should distinguish the second primary lung cancer from pulmonary metastasis. The treatment regimen for lung metastasis and primary lung cancer in patients with breast cancer are entirely distinct. The timely histopathology examinations for pulmonary nodes in patients with breast cancer are recommended.

Objective To evaluate the effect of strengthening nutrition intervention in gravidas with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) with WeChat on blood glucose control and pregnant outcomes.Methods A total of 410 gravidas,diagnosed with GDM and treated in the Department of Clinical Nutrition of Shanghai General Hospital from October 2015 to April 2016,were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups (n=205).The control group received traditional nutrition clinic education only,while the intervention group was given strengthened nutrition education through WeChat in addition to traditional education.Blood glucose level and insulin dosage were followed up after one,two and four weeks of intervention.Pregnant outcomes and patient satisfaction were investigated on 42 d after delivery.T test,Chi-square test and non-parametric test were used for statistical analysis.Results (1) Two weeks after the intervention,the average 1-hour postprandial blood glucose in the intervention group was lower than in the control group [(7.46± 1.01) vs (7.68± 1.06) mmol/L,t=2.243,P=0.025].After 4 weeks,both 1-and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose levels of the intervention group were lower than those of the control group [(7.03±0.65) vs (7.33±0.63) mmol/L,t=4.629,P＜0.05;(6.00±0.65) vs (6.21 ±0.62) mmol/L,t=3.153,P＜0.05] and more gravidas achieved euglycemia [79.9％ (151/189) vs 60.8％ (113/186),x2=16.483,P＜0.001].(2) Compared with the control group,the intervention group had a higher vaginal delivery rate [38.7％ (72/186) vs 50.5％ (95/188),x2=5.288,P=0.021] and a lower rate of postpartum complications [9.1％ (17/186) vs 2.1％ (4/188),x2=7.394,P=0.007].All of the gravidas in the intervention group were satisfied with the WeChat intervention except one lost to follow up [99.5％ (203/204)].Conclusions Strengthening nutrition education through WeChat is much more effective than traditional nutritional outpatient education alone in order to achieve a better control of blood glucose and improve pregnant outcomes in GDM women.This intervention is highly acceptable to gravidas and can be further extensively applied in nutrition clinic.

Objective To investigate the effects of abdominal breathing training on sleep disorders in elderly patients with chronic heart failure. Methods Total of 100 patients with chronic heart failure complain of sleeping disorders and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)>7 points were assigned into two groups by random digits table method, 50 cases in each group. The observation group and the control group were nursed in the same way except that abdominal breathing was adapted to the observation group. Sleep status, heart rate, blood pressure, SpO2 and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) were evaluated before training, one week and eight weeks after training respectively. Statistics was used to analyze the differences between two groups. Results After training one week, the sleep status of the observation group was ameliorated, but without significant difference compared to the control group (P>0.05). And after training eight weeks, the PSQI, BNP and heart rate were (9.21 ± 6.38) points, (193.78 ± 152.16) μg/L, (63.5 ± 10.8) times/min in the observation group, and (12.92 ± 0.33) points, (417.55 ± 262.47) μg/L, (70.7 ± 8.5) times/min in the control group, and there was significant differences between 2 groups (t=3.627, 2.041, 2.767, all P < 0.05), while the blood pressure, SpO2 did not change obviously(P>0.05). Conclusions Abdominal breathing training could ameliorate sleep status in elderly patients with chronic heart failure.
