Objective To determine 1 hour plasma glucose cutoff value during OGTT to screen diabetes and IGR and its relationship with islet β cell function and insulin sensitivity. Methods 4731 subjects were recruited to perform an OGTT.The cutoff value of 1h-plasma glucose during OGTT was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve).And according to the two cutoff values,we classified all the subjects to three groups,and compared HOMA-IR,HOMA-β,insulinogenic index and shape index among groups,then analyzed its correlation with each parameter. Results According to ROC results, to diagnose type 2 diabetes mellitus,the optimal cutoff value of 1h plasma glucose during OGTT was 12.935mmol/L,with sensitivity of 81.52%,specificity of 86.94%. To diagnose impaired glucose regulation(IGR),the optimal cutoff value of 1h plasma glucose was 9.815mmol/L,with sensitivity of 74.96% and specificity of 77.86%. We classified all the subjects to three groups, and among the three groups the insulinogenic index, shape index, HOMA-IR, HOMA-β showed statistically significant difference (all P＜0.01). There was a negative correlation of OGTT-1hPG with insulinogenic index and HOMA-β(all P＜0.01) and a positive correlation of OGTT-1h PG with shape index and HOMA-IR (all P＜0.01). Conclusions To diagnose type 2 diabetes mellitus,the optimal cutoff value of 1h plasma glucose during OGTT is 12.935mmol/L.To diagnose impaired glucose regulation(IGR),the optimal cutoff value of 1h plasma glucose is 9.815mmol/L.And 1h PG can reflect the islet β-cell function and insulin resistance.

Objective To evaluate the pathophysiology of paraplegia during transarterial chemoembolization in liver cancer and investigate effective management and prevention for improving clinical situation and relieve major symptoms.Method 2758 patients accepted TACE procedure because of liver cancer(and/or combined with remote metastasis),demonstrated 4 cases suffering from paraplegia(3 males,1 female)since Mar.2003 to Feb.2005,with mean age of(51?14)years old,The operative records and the clinical features after chemoembolization were summarized in detail.Results The incidence of paraplegia was 0.145%,with major symptoms of dysesthesia and hypokinesise emerging within 4 hours after TACE,and most symptoms aggravating gradually within 24-48 hours untill paraplegia appeared,and then turned to stabilization about 5-7 days,with their body functions partial recovery in 2 months.Conclusion More attention should be paied to prevent ectopic embolization of spinal cord vessels originating from extrahepatic collateral arteries during TACE or TAE.

Objective To investigate the depression status among the elderly living alone in a community of Shanghai and to analyze the influencing factors.

Objective To study the clinical features of diagnosis and treatment in children with low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS) and improve the diagnosis and treatment.Methods The examinations of 17 children with low-risk MDS were analyzed.The blood concentrations of cyclosporine,one of the therapeutic drugs,were monitored and the responses to the treatments were evaluated.Results Exa-mination of full blood count showed that the reductions of 3 cell types,2 cell types and 1 cell type were 11 (64.7%)cases,5(29.4%)cases and 1(5.9%)case,respectively.Reticulocyte count showed an increase in 82.4% of the patients and normal in 3 cases.Fourteen in 17 cases were hyperplastic marrow and 3 cases were hypoplastic marrow.Among all cases,one lineage,2 lineages and 3 lineages dyspoiesis were seen in 8(47.1%),7(41.2%) and 1 (5.9%)cases,respectively.One case showed no dyspoiesis.Cytogenetics examination showed normal in 10(58.8%) cases and abnormal in 7(41.2%) cases.Fifteen (88.2%) cases had normal proportions of CD59 negative cells,while 2 cases had higher proportions.The blood concentrations of cyclosporine that were tested in 9 cases at the end of the third week were in a range of 95.3-316.5 ?g/L.The therapeutic effect of 10 cases were evaluated at the end of the third month after being treated.Eight cases achieved haematological improvement and 2 cases didn′t.The rate of improvement was 80%.Conclusions The patients of low-risk MDS are mostly school-aged children and pancytopenia is the most common sign.The combination of predisone,cyclosporine and stanozolol agents shows good effect to treat low-risk MDS.The absorption of cyclosporine is different individually,so it is significant to adjust the dosage of cyclosporine according to the concentration regularly in clinical practice.

The clinical data and routine biochemical parameters of 64 maintenance hemodialysis (MHD)patients and 20 controls were analyzed in the study.Serum cystatin C levels were detected by latex particle enhalice inununo-turbidimetry:and the cardial structure and function were assessed by echocardiography.As MHD time extended,the levels of semm cystatin C increased gradually,accompanied with high incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy(LVH).The LVH-positive patients had higher systolic blood pressure and left veHtricular mass index,and had higher serum cystatin C than tllose in LVH-negative patients.The serum cystatin C levels were positively correlated with left yentricular mass index(r=0.633,P<0.01)and systolic blood pressure(r:0.397,P<0.01).The results suggest that serum cystatin levels may be an influencing factor for long-term cardiacvascular complication in MHD patients.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of web-based lifestyle Or behavior intervention on Chinese urban adults.Methods Six hundred and eighty-one adult subjects were rand omly assigned to the intervention group (n=341) or the control group (n=340).The intervention group was encouraged to visit a specified interactive web site at 1east once a month to submit self-report health diaries.and provided with individualized health promotion instructions and tailored counseling at the chat room or through email.The control group received routine medical services.The primary outcomes were changes in cigarette smoking,alcohol consumption,fruit or vegetable intake,and physical exercise duration at 6 month from baseline.Intention-to-treat method was used for data analysis.Results At 6 month,smoking cessation rate was 23.6% in intervention group and 4.6% in control group (X2=22.4,P<0.05),and daily alcohol consumption decreased by 28.6 g in intervention group compared to 6.1 g in control group (t=14.9.P<0.05).There Was no significant change in physical exercise duration for those with sub-optimal physical activities between the two groups.In contrast to the control group.mean systolic blood pressure,fasting blood glucose,and body mass index of the hypertensive,diabetic,or overweight/obese subjects in the intervention group showed statistically significant decrease.There was no significant change in serum cholesterol level for the participants with hypercholestemlemia in both groups.The attrition rate was 6.7% in the intervention group.Conclusion Web-based health management services may be helpful in promoting healthy lifestyle and behavior and enhancing the care of chronic conditions including hypertension,diabetes,overweight and obese.

We used 4 methods,such as ultrasonic crush(UC),ultrasonic rinse(UR),whorl surge(WS)and rubbing(RU),to isolate epiphytic bacteria from red alga Gracilaria lemaneiformis.Then,we counted bacteria numbers,detected bacterial species,observed bacterial configuration and characteristic of cell wall.Compared with these methods and with different treatments in one method,the results were drawn:the UR and RU were inferior in all methods to isolate bacterial numbers and species,the UC and WS were better,especially,the treatment 30W 30s of UC was the best in experiment,which isolated 12 of 16 bacterial species,and got 1.75 10~6 cells per gram wet weight G.lemaneiformis.

[Summary] A selection of 528 unrelated subjects were enrolled(198 males, 330 females) with the mean age of(52. 23 ± 13. 41) years old. According to body mass index, 253 persons belonged to the normal weight group and 275 persons overweight/ obesity group. A total of 10 SNPs in CIDEB and CIDEC genes were detected. SHEsis online were used to get the haplotypes of these two genes. The relationship between above SNPs and obesity were analyzed under additive inheritance pattern. The main effects and interaction on obesity induced by two genes’ haplotypes were analyzed by logistic regression. rs2144493 in CIDEB gene was associated with obesity, C was a protective alleles, OR (95% CI) equals 0. 722(0. 525-0. 992). CCTT haplotype of CIDEB gene carriers and GCG haplotype of CIDEC gene carriers were more prone to obesity or overweight, there was an interaction between the haplotypes of 2 genes. CIDEB, CIDEC haplotypes may play independent and interactive roles in causing obesity.
