Objective To investigate the correlation between serum osteocalcin and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in elderly patients.Methods A total of 55 T2DM patients (diabetic group) and 50 non-diabetic subjects (control group) aged ≥60 years were enrolled in this study.The levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG),glycated hemoglobin (HbAlc),insulin resistance index (HOMA IR),osteocalcin (OC),body mass index (BMI) and bone mineral density (BMD) in groups were compared.The correlations between serum osteocalcin and the above indicators were analyzed.Results The levels of OC and BMD were higher in control group than in diabetic group [(11.2±3.2)μg/Lvs.(4.1±3.0)μg/L,(-1.3±0.3) vs.(-2.6±0.5),respectively,both P＜0.05].The levels of FBG,HbAlc,FINS,HOMA-IR were lower in control group than in diabetic group [(4.7±2.0) mmol/L vs.(9.4±2.1) mmol/L],[(4.8±1.5) ％ vs.(7.6±1.6)％,(7.4±3.2) U/L vs.(23.7±3.0) U/L,(1.5±0.7) vs.(9.9±1.2),respectively,all P＜0.05].Serum osteocalcin concentration was negatively correlated with the levels of FBG,HbAlc,FINS and HOMA-IR in elderly patients with T2DM (r=-0.739,-0.713,-0.613,-0.092,all P＜0.01).Conclusions Serum osteocalcin concentration is correlated with the levels of blood sugar and insulin resistance index in elderly patients with T2DM.A further study on the correlation between osteocalcin and T2DM may provide a new target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To study gastroscopic features and clinical diagnosis of prepyloric mem-brane. Methods Clinical characteristics,gastroscopic manifestation and operational findings of 18 pa-tients,whose prepyloric membrane have been confirmed by operations,were retrospectively reviewed. Results Gastroscopie findings showed that all the 1 8 patients suffered gastric retention and pyloric obstruc-tion to some degree,with 4 cases of esophageal erosion and/or esophageal ulcer,five cases of erosive hemor-rhagic gastritis,one case of ulcer at gastric antrum,gastric comer and pylorus respectively. There were 2 ca-ses of aperture like narrowing in prepyloric region. And there were 9 cases that showed obvious congestion and edema in the prepyloric mucus,with uniform circular mucusal protrusion around the stenosing stoma,and volcano-like depression in the middle,three cases of which showed mucosal membrane standing out to the gastric cavity. The membrane found in the above 11 cases located in pyloric exit or tube,and they under-went membrane excision and py|oroplasty. The other 7 cases showed thick mucosal folds at the distal antrum with radial arrangement. Round or irregular stenosing stoma were observed. These cases proved to be antral membrane,1-3 cm away from the duodenum and pylorus,and underwent simple membrane resection. Conclusion Congenital prepyloric membrane is rare and it likely mis-diagnosed. The onset and the degree of symptoms depend on the diameter of aperture of the membrane. Early endoscopy,in addition to barium contrast,should be performed on those children who have intermittent bilious vomiting,where false-positive radiological findings can be avoided,therefore,to facilitate right diagnosis and appropriate operation.

Objective To explore the relationship between H.pylori (HP) infection and the functional dyspepsia (FD) by 4-lead electrogastrography (EGG). Methods The data of the gastric electrical activity of 163 children with FD, includ-ing 103 children with HP infection (group A), 60 without HP infection (group B) and 22 healthy controls (group C) were mea-sured by 4-lead EGG, which included normal slow wave percentage (N%), bradygastria percentage (B%), tachygastria per-centage (T%) and motilin uneven rhythm percentage (A%). EGG frequency and power examination included the main fre-quency (DF), the main power (DP) and postprandial/pre-prandial gastric electrical main power ratio (P/R). EGG data was compared between three groups. Results There was significant difference in pre-prandial and postprandial percentage of different slow wave frequency between group A and group B. There were no significant differences in pre-prandial and post-prandial changes of DF and DP between group A and group B. There was no significant difference in the pre-prandial and postprandial percentage change of different slow wave frequencies in 84 HP negative patients. But the significant change was found in pre-prandial and postprandial change of DF, DP and P/R. Conclusion The eradication of HP improved the gas-tric electrical activity and relieved the postprandial symptom in children with functional dyspepsia under HP infection.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of polyethylene glycols (PEG) on functional constipation in children by Meta-analysis.Methods The Medline,Pubmed,Cochrane database,Embase,VIP database,China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database (CNKI) and WANFANG MED ONLINE resources were reviewed for the treatment with polyethylene glycols on functional constipation in children from the inception to December 2016 to collect all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or comparative prospective studies.Revman 5.3 software was used to assess risk of bias of the Cochrane Collaboration's tool.A Meta analysis of the therapeutic effect of polyethylene glycols on functional constipation in children was conducted by Stata1 1.0 software.The pooled standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95％ confidence interval (95％ C/) were calculated in order to know the clinical efficacy of polyethylene glycols on functional constipation in children.Results Seven literatures were included in our Meta analysis.There were 662 children were included in this study,and they were divided into PEG treatment group (n=318) and non-PEG treatment group (n=344).The forest plot results of Meta analysis showed that the main effect index weekly stool frequency was significantly higher in PEG treatment group than that of lactulose group,according to the different control measures.The main effect index weekly stool frequency was significantly higher in PEG treatment group than that of non-PEG treatment group,according to the mapping forest chart displayed different clinical effect observation time points.Results from Meta analysis showed that the secondary effect index successful stool consistency improvement was significantly higher in PEG treatment group than that of non-PEG treatment group,according to different observation time points.Conclusion Polyethylene glycols is safe and effective in the treatment of functional constipation in children.

Objective To assess the relationships between bile reflux gastritis (BRG) and Helicobacter pylori infec-tion in children. Methods A total of 258 BRG cases were included in BRG group and 1 749 gastric mucosal inflammation cases without bile reflux were used as control group. Children with BRG were divided into three groups according to the dis-ease classification and they were also sub-divided into three groups according to the bile reflux indexing. The infection rates of Helicobacter pylori were analyzed in different groups. Results Compared to control group (34.02%), the infection rate of Helicobacter pylori was significantly higher in BRG group (46.12%). The infection rates of Helicobacter pylori infection were 40.86%(38/93), 45.53%(56/123) and 59.52%(25/42) in patients with mild, moderate and severe infections. There was no significant difference between them (χ2=4.089, P>0.05). The positive rates of Helicobacter pylori infection were 37.32%(53/142), 53.68%(51/95) and 71.43%(15/21) in children withⅠ,ⅡandⅢreflux indexing, and there was significant differ-ence between them (χ2=12.022,P<0.01). Conclusion Helicobacter pylori infection is one of the causative factors leading to BRG in children. The bile regurgitation increased with the increasing of Helicobacter pylori infection.
