Clinical Medicine of China 2016;32(6):527-529
Objective To study the clinical characteristics and related factors of type 2 diabetes with different ankle brachial index (ABI).Methods Two hundred and sixty-two patients with type 2 diabetes in Tieying Hospital of Fengtai District of Beijing outpatient and inpatient from January 2012 to April 2015 were selected.General information,blood biochemical parameters and ABI of patients were tested and collected.The patients were classified into three groups according to the different ABI.A group was ABI<0.9 with 40 cases,B group was ABI 0.9-1.3 with 191 cases,C group was ABI>1.3 with 31 cases.The clinical characteristics of three groups were analyzed.Results The age of the patients in group B was younger than that in group A and C((62±15) years old vs.(72±10) years old vs.(71±9) years old,P=0.048).The duration of disease in group B was shorter than that in group A and C((6±6) years vs.(10±2) years vs.(11±3) years,P=0.037).The Blood uric acid of patient in group B were lower than those of patient in group A and C((320±111) μmol/L vs.(350±110) μmol/L vs.(338±109) μmol/L,P=0.039).The glycosylated hemoglobin levels of patient in group Bwere higher than those of patient in group A and C((9.5±1.8)% vs.(7.2±2.3)% vs.(8.8±2.0) %,P=0.041).Compared with group A,the level of UA,HbA1c in group B were more higher(P<0.05).The incidence rate of diabetic foot was 23% (9/40) in group A,6% (11/191) in group B,23% (7/31) in group C,and the difference was significant(P=0.042).Compared with group A and C,the the incidence rate of diabetic foot in group B was the lower(P<0.05).Correlation analysis showed that ABI was negatively correlated with age,course of disease,HbA1c(r=-0.65,-0.70,-0.79,-0.61,P<0.05).Conclusion Different ABI of patients with type 2 diabetes have different clinical features.With increasing age,disease duration,glycosylated hemoglobin and blood uric acid level,it is likely to cause patients with abnormal ABI and increase the probability of occurrence of diabetic foot.

Clinical Medicine of China 2016;32(4):293-295
Objective To study the expression and clinical significance of serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in different stages of diabetic nephropathy patients.Methods Ninety-eight cases of diabetics were selected as our subjects in observation group,who were hospitalized in Tieying Hospital of Fengtai District of Beijing from January 2010 to December 2014.They were divided into diabetics group(36 cases,UAER <30 mg/24 h),microalbuminuria group(32 cases,UAER was 30-300 mg/24 h),massive proteinuria group (30cases,UAER>300 mg/24 h).One hundred healthy persons were selected as a normal control group over the same period.The changes of fasting blood glucose,course of disease,blood lipid,serum creatinine and serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in all groups were recorded.Results Fasting blood glucose,serum creatinine and serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 were (8.97±2.3) mmol/L,(76.2±19.5) μmol/L,(28.9±13.6) μg/L in observation group,and (4.7±0.4) mmol/L,(63.1±12.0) μmol/L,(70.1±21.3) μg/L in control group respectively,the difference between the two group was statistically significant (P =0.031,0.046,0.028).Serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 was (52.68±20.91) μg/L in patients of diabetics group,(31.40±15.23) μg/L in microabuminuria group,(15.76±7.81) μg/L in massive proteinuria group,the difference among the three group was statistically significant (P =0.036).Serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 of microabuminuria group and massive proteinuria group were lower than of diabetics group,of massive proteinuria group was lower than of microabuminuria group(P<0.05).Serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 was negatively correlated with the cause of disease(r=-0.301),fasting blood glucose (r =-0.281) and serum creatinine (r =-0.536) in patients with type 2 diabetes,the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).Conclusion Serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in patients with diabetic nephropathy decrease in different degree,which reflects the severity of renal damage.The results indicate that reduction of serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 may be involved in the occurrence and development of diabetic nephropathy
3.Voltage-dependent calcium channel(VDCC)LTP and N-methyl-D-aspartate(NMDA)receptor channel LTP
International Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2008;31(2):74-77
Long-term potentiation(LTP)is a typical model of synaptic plasticity which has great relationship with learning and memory mechanisms:The induction of LTP depends on the activation of the calcium channels and LTPs generated by calcium ions influx through different channels play different roles in memory.This paper reviews the progress of the research on LTPs induced by activations of N-methyl-D-aspanate receptor(NMDAR)channels and voltage-dependent calcium channels(VDCC).Finally,it gives an example of new forms of low frequency stimulation for induction of LTP.

7.Automatic Registration between Portal Images and Reference Images in Radiotherapy
Chinese Journal of Medical Physics 2009;26(6):1481-1484
Objective: To correct the set-up error of patients during radiotherapy is very important for increasing treatment effective. Methods: This paper proposes a registration method based on portal images and reference images. Canny Operator was used to extract edge features. The extracted edge features were set as datum mark to calculate the maximal mutual information between the portal images and reference images. Parameters were optimized with simplex-simulated annealing optimization strategy. Results: The portal images and reference images of 29 patients with the cervix cancer and prostatic carcinoma were registrated in this paper. The results showed that the registration was precise, and the registration speed was increased remarkably. Conclusion: So this registration method can be applied for online estimation for set-up errors in clinical radiation.
8.Research status of hippocampal dysfunctions caused by cranial irradiation
Chinese Journal of Radiological Medicine and Protection 2016;36(9):712-716
Cranial irradiation is routinely used for the treatment of almost all brain tumors,but it may cause disastrous injury in brain,especially in the hippocampus that has cognitional and emotional regulation functions.Several studies have investigated the mechanisms of radiation-induced hippocampal dysfunctions such as hippocampal neurogenesis,neurotrophin and neuroinflammation,and provided effective prevention strategies such as exercise,environmental enrichment,anti-inflammatory and intrahippocampal transplantation of neural stem cells.This review discussed the curent progresses and challenges of hippocampal dysfunction induced by cranial irradiation and provided new insights for preclinical and clinical researches.
9.Research progress of anticoagulation combined with antiplatelet treatment strategy in acute coronary syndrome
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2016;39(6):567-570
Dual antiplatelet therapy is the standard treatment for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and coronary heart disease interventional treatment. Clopidogrel, a traditional antiplatelet agent, has some disadvantages, such as slow onset time, individual differences and dissatisfy the antithrombosis requirement in ischemia of high-risk patients. In addition, for ACS patients with indications of anticoagulation, antiplatelet therapy cannot prevent venous thromboembolic events. However, dual antiplatelet combined with anticoagulant therapy may decrease the risk of ischemic events at the price of increasing bleeding. With the development of new antithrombotic agents, the antithrombotic strategy for ACS has made some progress, such as antiplatelet strategy for ACS, antithrombotic strategy for ACS with indication of anticoagulation and new antithrombotic drugs. With the development of clinical antithrombotic drug research, the patients with ACS will benefit from the optimized strategy of combined with antithrombotic therapy.
