Objective: To explore the dose-response relationship between pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), so as to provide insights into the cut-off values of pre-pregnancy BMI and optimizing GDM prevention and control strategies. Methods: Pregnant women that admitted to Zhengzhou Central hospital in 2021 were recruited, and demographics, family history, pregnancy and delivery history and blood glucose levels during pregnancy were collected. The dose-response relationship between pre-pregnancy BMI and GDM was analyzed using restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis. The predictive ability of pre-pregnancy BMI for GDM risk was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: A total of 2 279 participants were included in the study. The median age was 29.0 (interquartile range, 5.0) years. The median pre-pregnancy BMI was 21.1 (interquartile range, 3.8) kg/m2. There were 312 underweight women (13.69%), 825 women with low-normal weight (36.20%), 730 women with high-normal weight (32.03%), 345 overweight women (15.14%) and 67 obese women (2.94%).The prevalence of GDM was 17.20%. RCS analysis suggested a linear dose-response relationship between age, pre-pregnancy BMI and GDM (P<0.05). When pre-pregnancy BMI was higher than 21.1 kg/m2, the risk of GDM increased with pre-pregnancy BMI (P<0.05). When women aged over 29.0 years, the risk of GDM increased with age, and the dose-response relationship of GDM caused by pre-pregnancy BMI was stronger in the women aged over 29.0 years than in the women aged 29.0 years and below (P<0.05). The area under curve (AUC) was 0.654 (95%CI: 0.624-0.684). If the cut-off value of pre-pregnancy BMI was 23.0 kg/m2, the Youden index, sensitivity and specificity was 0.238, 0.472 and 0.766, respectively. If it was 24.0 kg/m2, the Youden index, sensitivity and specificity was 0.195, 0.342 and 0.853, respectively. If it was 21.1 kg/m2, the Youden index, sensitivity and specificity was 0.213, 0.676 and 0.537, respectively. Conclusions There is a linear dose-response relationship between pre-pregnancy BMI and GDM, and higher than 21.1 kg/m2 of the pre-pregnancy BMI could increase the risk of GDM.

Objective To evaluate the effect of preoperative sleep disturbance on efficacy of postoperative analgesia and comfort in patients undergoing colorectal cancer resection surgery.Methods 60 colorectal cancer patients with elective anesthesia laparoscopic radical resection were selected.According to the presence or absence of preoperative sleep disorders,they were divided into the sleep disorder group (group A) and non-sleep disorders group (group B),30 patients in each group.Two groups of patients used the same method to maintain anesthesia induction.Intraoperative intravenous nicardipine controlled hypotension in parallel to maintain MAP 60-75mmHg,HR 65-95times/min.The patients received PCIA pump at the end of surgery.Postoperative 24h VAS scores were maintained VAS score ≤3 points,when VAS score ＞ 3 points,given the pressing PCA analgesia remedy.The remedy situation within 24 hours after surgery and comfort analgesic score were recorded.Results Compared with group B,postoperative PCIA pressing number of group A significantly increased [A group:(11 ± 5),group B:(6 ± 5),t =2.44,P ＜ 0.05].At the end of surgery,postoperative 2h,4h,8h pain scores of group A were (2.8 ± 0.4),(2.5 ± 0.7),(3.2 ± 0.6),(3.5 ± 0.5),respectively,which were significantly higher than those of group B [(1.8 ± 0.5) points,(1.8 ± 0.4) points,(1.9 ± 0.3) points,(2.9 ± 0.3) points; at the end of surgery t =5.78,postoperative 2h t =4.56,postoperative 4h t =4.17,postoperative 8h t =2.09,all P ＜ 0.05],but postoperative 12h,24h had no significant change in pain scores (P ＞ 0.05).Compared with group B,the comfort scores of A group at the end of surgery,postoperative 2h,4h,8h,12h[group A:(2.8 ±0.3) points,(2.5 ±0.9)points,(2.6 ±0.9) points,(2.5 ±0.5) points,(2.9 ± 0.6) points ; group B:(3.8 ± 0.4) points,(3.3 ± 0.5) points,(3.6 ± 0.8) points,(3.3 ± 0.3) points,(3.3 ± 0.6) points] were significantly lower (at the end of surgery t =9.87 ; postoperative 2h t =4.94 ; postoperative 4h t =6.87 ; postoperative 8h t =7.61 ; postoperative 12h t--2.79,all P ＜ 0.05),after 24h comfort score had no significant change (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Preoperative sleep disorders can affect laparoscopic colorectal cancer after radical surgery analgesia and comfort of patients.

Background:Irritable bowel syndrome( IBS)patients are often accompanied by anxiety,depression and other psychological abnormalities,but the effects of psychological abnormalities on daily life have not yet been fully clarified. Aims:To investigate the effects of psychological abnormalities on life quality,sleep quality and symptom severity in IBS patients. Methods:A total of 101 IBS patients admitted from Nov. 2014 to May 2015 at Anhui Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University were enrolled in this study. Zung self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)and Zung self-rating depression scale(SDS)were used to evaluate the mental state;IBS-quality of life(IBS-QOL)was used to evaluate the life quality;Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI)was used to evaluate the sleep quality;IBS symptom severity score (IBS-SSS)was used to evaluate the symptom severity. Correlations between psychological factors,life quality,sleep quality and symptom severity were analyzed. Results:57. 4%(58 / 101)of IBS patients were accompanied by varying degrees of anxiety and/ or depression. The IBS-QOL score of 101 patients was 73. 28 ± 12. 79,in which anxiety,loss of appetite and health concerns were the most severely affected. 73. 3%(74 / 101)of IBS patients were accompanied by varying degrees of sleep disorders,in which daytime dysfunction,sleep quality and sleep efficiency were the most severely affected. Of the 101 IBS patients,the symptom of 13 cases was mild,63 cases was moderate and 25 cases was severe. IBS-SSS score was 253. 00 ± 72. 58. Correlation analysis showed that anxiety,depression were negatively correlated with life quality(r = - 0. 426,P < 0. 001;r = - 0. 501,P < 0. 001)and positively correlated with sleep quality(r = 0. 556, P = 0. 000;r = 0. 513,P = 0. 000)and symptom severity(r = 0. 231,P = 0. 020;r = 0. 357,P < 0. 001). Life quality was negatively correlated with symptom severity(r = - 0. 417,P < 0. 001). Conclusions:IBS patients have psychological abnormalities and their life and sleep qualities are decreased,the more serious the psychological abnormalities,the more damage on life and sleep qualities and the more severe the IBS symptoms.

Objective To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine combined with sevoflurane on elderly patients with postoperative recovery quality.Methods Selected 60 cases of abdominal rectal cancer resection for elderly patients,which were ASA I or II,were randomly divided into two groups by a random number table method, while each groupincluded 30 cases:the control group( group N) and the dexmedetomidine group( group D) .Before the induction of anesthesia,group D vein was injected with micro pump ( more than 10 min) of dexmedetomidine 1μg/kg ( which was formulated with physiological saline as 4μg/mL) ,and then was given to maintain the dexmedetomidine 0.5μg/h and N group was injected with micro pump of the same volume of normal saline.The two groups of anesthesia were same,by which the static inhalation of composite general anesthesia.Observation were recorded before induction of anesthesia(T0),given dexmedetomidine(TI),after intubation 1 min(T1),5 min(T2),drawing tube immediately (T3),extubation after 5min(T4),30min(T5)the time of HR,BP,SpO2,BIS;propofol and remifentanil dosage,opera-tive time,operation time,a nesthesia time,recovery time,drawing tube time,extubation after Ramsay Sedation score, pain score,patient satisfaction and adverse reactions were recorded.Results In T3 period,the changes of HR (82 ± 14)times/min,SBP (130 ±8)mmHg,DBP (85 ±13)mmHg in group N were more obvious than (70 ±12)timse/min, SBP (121 ±7)mmHg,DBP (79 ±9)mmHg in group D,the difference between the two groups had statistical signifi-cance(t=6.28,4.63,2.08,all P<0.05).In T5 period,the levels of blood glucose (5.3 ±1.1)mmol/L and cortisol (402 ±78) nmol/L and ( 0.260 ±0.044 ) ng/L in group D were significantly lower than ( 5.9 ±1.2 ) mmol/L, (550 ±92)nmol/L,IL-6 (0.300 ±0.066)ng/L in group N(t=2.02,6.72,2.76,all P<0.05).However,the composite of dexmedetomidine group D patients with respiratory recovery time(7.5 ±2.3)min,calling the eyes open time(7.8 ±2.5) min,pull out the time of endotracheal tube (14.2 ±3.3) min compared with groups N of patients with respiratory recovery time (7.8 ±2.5)min,calling the eyes (14.8 ±3.2)min,pull out the time of endotracheal tube (13.9 ±3.1)min,showed no statistical significance (t=0.88,0.44,0.36,all P>0.05).In group N,postoper-ative restlessness in 8 cases,nausea and vomiting in 10 cases,chills in 9 cases,which were significantly higher than 2 cases,2 cases,2 cases in group D(χ2 =4.32,6.67,5.45,all P<0.05).At the same time,the satisfaction score of patient in group D (3.0 ±0.3)point,which was significant higher than (2.7 ±0.5)points in group N (t=1.88,P<0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine detomidine composite sevoflurane anesthesia can improve the postoperative re-covery quality of elderly patients with rectal cancer radical surgery.

Objective To investigate the alteration of mast cell(MC)in elderly patients with reflux esophagitis(RE). Methods Twenty eight elderly and 15 non-elderly patients with RE were recruited.Lower esophageal mucosal mast cells and the percentage of degranulated mast cells were countered after immunohistochemieal staining.The ultrastrueture of mast cells was observed by eleetromieroscope. Results The number of mast cells in lower esophageal mucosa in elderly patients with RE was significantly more than that in non-elderly patients with RE(10.24±2.56 VS.5.07±0.18,P＜0.01),and the percentage of degranulated mast cells in lower esophageal mucosa was also significantly higher in elderly patients with RE than in non-elderly patients with RE[(24.7±4.6)%vs.(13.5±5.5)%,P＜0.01].The more severe the esophageal mucosallesions,the more the numberof mast cells. Under the electromicroscopy, more Golgi apparatus, mitochondria and endoplasm-reticulum were found in mast cells.Special secreting particles were also found in cytoplasm,more vacuole were left behind after mast cells degranulation in elderly patients with RE.Conclusions Increased numbers of mast cells and mast cell activation may be involved in the pathogenesis of elderly RE.

Objective To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine and tramadol on perioperative insulin resistance in patients undergoing radical resection of rectal carcinoma.Methods Sixty ASA I or II patients undergo-ing radical resection of rectal carcinoma were randomly divided into 3 groups(n =20 each):dexmedetomidine group (group D),tramadol group(group T),control group(group C).Group D was given dexmedetomidine intravenously at 1μg/kg 15min before induction of anesthesia followed by a continuous infusion of 0.5μg·kg -1 ·h -1 until the abdo-men was closed,and group T was given tramadol intravenously at 1.5mg/kg 15min before induction of anesthesia fol-lowed by a continuous infusion of 0.5mg·kg -1 ·h -1 until the abdomen was closed,whereas group C received the same volume of normal saline.Venous blood samples were taken at 30min before anesthesia induction(T1 ),1 h after the beginning of the operation(T2 ),1h after operation(T3 ),24h after operation(T4 )for determination of blood con-centrations of glucose(BG),insulin(INS),interleukin -6 (IL -6),tumor necrosis factor -α(TNF -α).Insulin resistance(HOMA -IR)and insulin sensitivity index(QUICKI)were calculated.The numbers of patients with PONV were studied respectively.Results The serum IL -6,TNF -α,BG,INS concentrations and HOMA -IR were signifi-cantly lower while ISI was significantly higher in both group D[t =7.71,3.37,8.78,8.73,11.45,2.82(T2 ),3.04, 2.95,12.75,10.73,16.09,2.92(T3 ),11.26,2.45,11.40,5.10,14.5,2.51(T4 ),all P <0.05]and group T[t =3.02,2.59,2.93,7.76,6.32,2.03(T2 ),8.78,2.27,4.14,8.83,7.68,2.12(T3 ),6.10,2.05,3.71,2.35,7.12, 2.09(T4 ),all P <0.05]at T2 ,T3 and T4 than those in group C.The serum TNF -αconcentration and HOMA -IR were significantly lower while ISI was significantly higher in group D[t =6.68,4.58,2.05 (T2 ),9.01,6.66,2.23 (T3 ),7.54,5.5,2.02(T4 ),all P <0.05]at T2 ,T3 and T4 than those in group T.The numbers of patients with PONV were significantly higher in group T than those in group D and group C (χ2 =26.13,18.75,all P <0.05 ). Conclusion Both dexmedetomidine and tramadol can attenuate perioperative insulin resistance in patients undergo-ing Radical Resection of Rectal Carcinoma,and the decrease the consentrations of IL -6 and TNF -αmay be involved in the mechanism.The roles of prevention of perioperative insulin resistance in dexmedetomidine group are superior to tramadol group.The incidence of PONV is less in a dexmedetomidine group than that in a tramadol group.

Background:It was demonstrated that vitamin D has extensive biological effects,and evidence exists on association between vitamin D and a variety of immune mediated diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease. Aims:To investigate the relationship between serum level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D(25OHD)and disease activity and quality of life in patients with ulcerative colitis( UC). Methods:Serum level of 25OHD was detected by electrochemiluminescence in 50 outpatients/inpatients with UC from Oct. 2015 to Mar. 2016 at the Anhui Provincial Hospital;35 healthy subjects were served as normal controls. CRP,ESR and PLT were determined by routine laboratory tests in UC patients. Disease activity of UC was assessed by improved Mayo score,and Chinese version IBD questionnaire( IBDQ)was employed to assess quality of life. Results:Vitamin D deficiency defined as serum 25OHD ﹤20 ng/mL was detected in 68. 0% of the UC patients. The mean value of serum 25OHD was significantly lower in UC group than in normal control group[(16. 73 ± 8. 83)ng/mL vs.(19. 84 ± 4. 56)ng/mL,P﹤0. 05]. When patients were stratified with disease activity,serum level of 25OHD decreased in the order of remission,mild,moderate and severe active stage(P ﹤0. 05). In UC patients with vitamin D deficiency,the value of CRP,ESR and PLT were significantly increased(P all ﹤0. 05)and the overall score of IBDQ and scores of four dimensions of IBDQ referring to bowel symptom,systemic symptom,emotional function and social function were significantly decreased(P all ﹤0. 05). Spearman and Pearson correlation coefficients analyses showed that serum level of 25OHD was negatively correlated with Mayo score,CRP,ESR and PLT(P all ﹤0. 05),and positively correlated with scores of IBDQ,including overall score and four dimensional scores in UC group( P all ﹤0. 05 ). Conclusions:Vitamin D deficiency occurs frequently in patients with UC and might have a negative impact on disease activity and quality of life.

AIM: To investigate the immune mechanisms for Periplocin from Cortex Periplocae (CPP) in tumor-bearing mice. METHODS: H_(22) tumor-bearing model BALB/c mice were applied to evaluated in vivo immunoregulatory effect of CPP. The influence of different dose CPP (0.25, 0.50 and 1.00 mg/kg) on immune organs in tumorbearing mice were observed. T cell subsets of mice spleen were detected by flow cytometry. MTT assay was used to determine the influence of CPP on lymphocyte proliferation of mice spleen stimulated by ConA. The levels of TNF-α, IL-2 and IL-12 in serum from mice were detected by means of ELISA. RESULTS: Thymus index and spleen index of H_(22) tumor-bearing model control mice became less than that of normal mice (P < 0.05). Compared to both model and normal control groups, thymus index and spleen index of H_(22) tumor-bearing mice treated with CPP increased obviously (P < 0.05). CPP had no influence on the number of CD8~+ T cells, but up-regulated markedly the number of CD3~+, CD4~+ T cells and the ratio of CD4~+/CD8~+ in tumorbearing mice. In CPP-treated mice, the percentage of CD3~+, CD4~+ T cells were not different from normal mice (P<0.05), the ratio of CD4~+/CD8~+ was higher than that of normal mice (P < 0.05). CPP enhanced obviously lymphocyte proliferation of mice spleen induced by ConA, the SI scores were even higher than that of nornal mice. The levels of TNF-α, IL-2 and IL-12 in serum from CPP-treated mice, increased significantly compared to model control group (P<0.05) in a dose-dependent manner, were similar to or higher than that of normal mice. CONCLUSION: CPP protected immune organs of tumor-bearing mice, increased obviously the percentage of CD4~+ and CD4~+/ CD8~+ among the T cell line, and enhanced lymphocyte proliferation of mice spleen significantly, stimulated the production of TNF-α, IL-2 and IL-12. The results suggested that CPP possessed potent immunoregulatory effect.
