Objective To explore the effect of smoking on the triglyceride ( TG ) , cholesterol ( TC ) , high density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C) with the male type 2 diabetes. Methods Selected 144 male patients with type 2 diabetes, then divided them into four groups, including non-smokers, former smokers,current mild(≤20 per day) smokers and current heavy ( >20 per day) smokers. All of them were investigated about the age, diabetes pathogenesis, exercise, diet, smoking, lipid-lowering drugs used and checked with TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C and so on. The difference of TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C among these four groups was compared by the methods of covariance analysis, regression analysis and partial correlation to evalu-ate the relationships of smoking with blood lipid. Results TG of heavy smokers was higher than the non-smokers and HDL-C was lower after correcting the effects of other possibly relative factors(P<0. 05). HDL-C of the former smokers was higher than smokers and TG was lower than heavy smokers(P<0. 05). Smoking was an independent risk factor for HDL-C ( P<0. 05 ,β= -0. 213 ) , and there was a significantly negative relationship between daily cigarette consumption and HDL-C ( r= -0. 223 , P<0. 05 ) . Conclusion Smoking is an important risk factor for the diabetic male patients’ metabolism of the TG and HDL-C,independent of age, body mass index, blood pres-sure,exercise,diabetes pathogenesis, percentage of body fat and blood glucose. Smoking promotes the type 2 diabet-ics’ disorder of blood lipid and smoking cessation is of significance for the diabetics’ regulation of blood lipids.

Objective:The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism underlying transforming growth factor-β1 ( TGF-β1 ) induced differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs)into myofibroblasts.Methods:Primary mouse BMSCs were isolated from bone marrow by flushing the tibias and femurs of mice , and passage 3 to passage 5 of BMSCs were used in the experiments . BMSCs differentiation into myofibroblast was induced by different doses of TGF-β1.In addition, reactive oxygen species (ROS) inhibitor (N-acetylcysteine, NAC) was added to test its effect on the action of TGF-β1.Expressions of BMSCs differentiation parameters , α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), collagenα1(Ⅰ) [Col α1(Ⅰ)] and collagen α1(Ⅲ) [Col α1(Ⅲ)] were measured by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and Western blot analysis.BMSCs were preloaded for 15 min with 2’, 7’-dichlorohydro-fluorescein diacetate ( DCFH-DA) , then stimulated with TGF-β1 for different times , and fluorescence of ROS was measured using high content analysis .Results:TGF-β1 stimulated differentiation of BMSCs into myofibroblasts and up-regulated expression of α-SMA, Col α1(Ⅰ) and Col α1(Ⅲ) in a dose-dependent manner , which blocked by ROS inhibitor NAC .In addition , TGF-β1 could induce a significant rapid and transient increase in ROS production in BMSCs , and the effect of TGF-β1 on ROS production was peaked at 30 min.Conclusion:TGF-β1 induced differentiation of BMSCs into myofibroblasts via production of ROS.

Objective To investigate the effects of high density lipoprotein (HDL) on thrombin-activated platelet al-pha-granulemembrane protein (CD62P) and lysosome intact membrane protein (CD63) expressions in vitro. Methods The equivalent volume of washed platelets prepared by hand was preincubated with HDL (1 g/L) in 37℃water for 15 minutes, which was then stimulated with different concentrations of thrombin (0.5 U/mL, 1 U/mL and 10 U/mL) for 10 minutes in wa-ter of 37℃. Meanwhile another three groups of washed platelets were incubated with thrombin (0.5 U/mL, 1 U/mL and 10 U/mL) for 10 minutes, respectively. The CD62P and CD63 from each sample were analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM). Results The CD62P positive rates of HDL-preincubated groups were significantly lower than those of different concentrations of thrombin groups (0.5 U/mL,1 U/mL and 10 U/mL) in the absence of HDL (11.55%± 1.34% vs 18.14%± 1.50%, 17.19%± 0.17% vs 26.24%± 0.77% and 19.79%± 0.32% vs 80.38%± 5.66%,P ＜ 0.01). Meanwhile, The CD63 positive rates of HDL-preincubated groups were also significantly lower than those of thrombin-treated (0.5 U/mL, 1 U/mL and 10 U/mL) groups without HDL, namely,2.92%±0.22%vs 8.09%±0.48%(P＜0.001), 4.20%±0.98%vs 14.15%±1.39%(P＜0.001) and 5.12%± 0.09% vs 24.48%± 1.71%(P ＜ 0.01). Conclusion HDL inhibits the expression of CD62P and CD63 on throm-bin-stimulated platelets in vitro.

BACKGROUND:Mini-screw stability is primarily related to alveolar bone cortical thickness. It is necessary to learn cortical thickness to choose suitable implanting sites and predict success rate. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the buccal cortical thickness in maxilary posterior area of Class II Division I malocclusion adolescents. METHODS: Fifty-two adolescents (including 26 male and 26 female) of Class II Division I malocclusion scanned by Cone Beam Computer Tomography were involved in this study. The buccal cortical thickness of six posterior interradicular sites (14-15, 15-16, 16-17, 24-25, 25-26, 26-27) at four bone levels (2, 4, 6, 8 mm) from the alveolar crest in both boys and girls were measured. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) There was no statisticaly significant difference in alveolar cortical thickness between left and right sides in the girls (P > 0.05); cortical thickness of 5-6 and 6-7 at 8 mm was thicker than that at 2 mm (P < 0.05) and cortical thickness of 6-7 at 2 mm was smaler than that at 8 mm (P < 0.05). The cortical thickness increased from crest to base of alveolar crest and reached the peak at 8 mm. Cortical thickness of 6-7 was thicker than 4-5 at 8 mm depth (P < 0.05). The results of males were the same as females. (2) There was no statisticaly significant difference in alveolar cortical thickness of the same site between males and females (P > 0.05). Al sites in this study were suitable for mini-screw implantation; from the first molar to posterior dental arch, buccal cortical thickness is wel-distributed; it is dangerous for implantation in the areas around the first molar more than 6 mm, where the frequent presence of the maxilary sinus is observed. There is an increase of buccal cortical thickness from crest to base of alveolar crest, obtaining good initial stability.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the outcomes of umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem call transplantation for treating neural function of multiple system atrophy (MSA) patients.METHODS:A total of 20 MSA patients were selected at the Beijing Wu Stem Cells Medical Center from January to October 2008.All patients received treatment of vessel distention,anti-free radical,trophic nerve and call membrane stabilization,as well as umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem call transplantation via intrathecal injection.Patients at left-lateral position,and body bent at hips,knees and necks.Acupuncture was conducted at the space of lumbar vertebra 3 and 4.Following local anesthesia,No.9 needle was directly pricked into the subarachnoid cavity.2 mg dexamethasone was slowly infused,and 5 mL (5×106 stem cells) umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stern call injection was obtained and slowly infused into the subarachnoid cavity within 10 minutes,once per week,four times as a course,totally one course.We adopted Unified Multiple System Atrophy Rating Scale (UMSARS) to evaluate those MSA patients.The higher score represented a severe pathogenetic condition.RESULTS:Compared with pretransplantation,the UMSARS score was significantly decreased in 20 patients 4 weeks follwing transplantation (P ＜ 0.01).After the treatment,patient's clinical symptoms such as slow movement,balance disturbance,orthostatic hypotension,urinary and bowel disorders had full obvious improvement.Graft versus host disease was not found.CONCLUSION:It is indicated that mesenchymal stem call transplantation is effective,can partly improve MSA patients' clinical symptoms,and improve patients' life quality.

Objective To discuss the influence of bath frequency on neonatal skin condition and body temperature. Methods 108 newborns from obstetrics of People′s Hospital of Peking University during November 2015 to December 2015 were selected, and were randomly distributed t into two groups by lottery. The control group took bath every day, whereas the experimental group did every three days. The newborns were followed up for 4 weeks on their skin condition and body temperature. Then the data were systemized and performed statistical analysis. Results During the first 4 weeks after babies were born, the control group and experimental group showed no significant difference on their skin condition (P>0.05). When compared at the time of first 3 days, 1 week and 2 weeks after the babies were born, body temperature of the experimental group were (36.693±0.182), (36.738±0.174), (36.772±0.185)℃, while the control group were (36.591 ± 0.160), (36.671 ± 0.158), (36.684 ± 0.155)℃,which tended to be significantly lower than the experimental group (t values were -2.697,-2.087,-2.669, P <0.01 or 0.05), but still within the normal range. However, this difference of body temperature disappeared after the first 2 weeks (P>0.05). Conclusions Reducing the bath frequency form once a day to every third day showed no influence on neonatal skin condition. Meanwhile, it did avoid significant reduce of body temperature after bath. This may help improve healthy skin care of newborns, promote their growth, and at the same time, redistribute the clinical nursing work efficiently.
