OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of Jintiange capsules combined with zoledronic acid on bone mineral densi-ty(BMD),VAS scores and lab indexes of patients with postmenopausal diabetic osteoporosis. METHODS:140 patients with post-menopausal diabetic osteoporosis were divided into control group and treatment group according to randomized blocks,with 70 cas-es in each group. Both group received 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 100 ml intravenously before and after treatment,and were given vitamin D and calcium. Control group was given Zoledronic acid injection 5 mg intravenously for more than 15 min,once ev-ery 4 weeks. Treatment group was additionally given Jintiange capsules 1.2 g,po,tid,on the basis of control group. Both groups received 6 months of treatment. BMD,VAS score,lab indexes before and after treatment and the occurrence of ADR were com-pared between 2 groups. RESULTS:After treatment,BMD of 2 groups were increased significantly compared to before treatment, and the treatment group was significantly higher than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). VAS score of 2 groups after treatment were significantly lower than before treatment,and VAS score of treatment group was significantly lower than that of control group after treatment,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The levels of blood calcium and serium inorganic phosphorus had no change in 2 groups;but the level of osteocalcin was significantly higher than before treatment,while the level of bone-specific alkaline phosphatase was significantly lower than before treatment,and the levels of osteocalcin and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase in treatment groups were significantly better than in control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Jintiange capsules combined with Zoledronic acid injection in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis patients with diabetes can significantly in-crease BMD,relieve pain and improve lab index levels. Moreover,it doesn’t increase the risk of ADR.

Objective To investigate the impact of migration inhibitory factor (MIF) over-expression on the epithelial to mesenchymal transition in human cervical cancer SiHa cells.Methods Recombinant plasmid pEGFP-N1-MIF was transfected into SiHa cells,and then of MIF mRNA relative quantitative expression was tested by RT-PCR.The mRNA and protein expression level of E-cadherin and vimentin were detected by RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry,respectively.Results RT-PCR results showed that MIF mRNA expression quantity in experimental group was higher than that in control group cells (F =2 950.278,P ＜ 0.01).In MIF-overexpressing SiHa cells,vimentin mRNA was increased and E-cadherin mRNA was decreased determined by RT-PCR (Fvalues were 2 135.048,1 893.563,P＜ 0.01).Immunocytochemistry results showed that vimentin expression quantity in experimental group cells were higher than that in control group cells,however,E-cadherin expression quantity was lower than that in control group cells (F values were 2 348.021,1 789.421,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions The over-expression of MIF gene can significantly up-regulate the expression of vimentin,and down-regulate the expression of E-cadherin.Consequently,MIF over-expression induces epithelial to mesenchymal transition in human cervical cancer SiHa cells.

Objective To retrospectively assess the diagnostic value of nuchal translucency (NT) thickness and facial profile ultrasonic markers [including frontomaxillary facial (FMF) angle,and the ratio of prenasal thickness to nasal bone length (PT/NBL)] for trisomy 21 syndrome in first-trimester fetuses.Methods Ultrasonograhic images of 35 fetuses with trisomy 21 syndrome and 70 gestational age matched normal fetuses were analyzed in first-trimester.NT,FMF angle and the PT/NBL ratio were measured retrospectively in stored images from digital database between January 2012 and December 2015.The diagnostic value of NT,FMF angle and PT/NBL ratio were compared with different combinations.Results (1) The mean NT was significantly higher in the trisomy 21 group than that in controls (t =7.401,P =0.00).The NT above 2.5mm was observed in 20 trisomy 21 fetuses (57.1％) and in 3 normal fetuses (4.3％).(2) The mean FMF angle was significantly higher in the trisomy 21 group than that in controls (t =-5.283,P =0.00).The FMF angle above the 95th percentile (93.6°) was observed in 13 trisomy 21 fetuses (37.1％) and in 1 normal fetus (1.4％).(3) The mean PT/NBL ratio was significantly higher in the trisomy 21 group than that in controls (t =-7.826,P =0.00).The PT/NBL ratio above the 95th percentile (0.93) was observed in 19 trisomy 21 fetuses (54.3％) and in 4 normal fetuses (5.7％).(4) The sensitivity and Youden index for trisomy 21 increased gradually,which were 57.1 ％ and 0.528 by using NT,and 74.3％ and 0.686 by using NT and FMF angle,and 91.4％ and 0.828 by using NT,FMF angle and PT/NBL ratio.There were significant differences in the detection rates of trisomy 21 among the three strategies,while the diagnostic specificity of the three strategies were more than 90％.Conclusions The three parameters are significantly increased in trisomy 21 fetus in first-trimester.First,increased NT was most commonly detected,followed by increased PT/NBL ratio,and increased FMF angle again.Detection rates for trisomy 21 fetuses in first-trimester by ultrasound screening can be significantly improved if combination of all three parameters rather than just one parameter are performed.
