Objective To investigate the changes between type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) with peripheral vessel disease and osteoporosis. Methods A total of 100 cases T2DM patients were divided into non-peripheral vessel disease (A group) and peripheral vessel disease (B group). B-mode ultrasonography to measure the intima-media thickness(IMT) of carotid artery,dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) to measured bone mineral density(BMD) and VS-1000 arteriosclerosis diagnometer to measure brachi-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) were used in 100 T2DM patients. The clinical data and BMD were compared between two groups. Results Compared with normal group,the BMD in T2DM patients significantly decreased.Compared with T2DM patients without peripheral vessel disease,the BMD decreased in T2DM patients with peripheral vessel disease. Conclusions Atherosclerosis in T2DM with peripheral vessel disease is probably related to osteoporosis, and the relationship between them is worth further investigation.

This study was undertaken to observe the biochemical changes in striatum of Parkinson's disease (PD) rat model by modified proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy. 12 SD rats were divided into model (n=7) and control (n=5) groups. At 3 weeks after the injection of 6-hydroxydopamine into right striatum, 1H-MRS on the striatum was taken by modified proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and then tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunostatining was used to visualize the changes of the neurons in substantia nigra and neurites in striatum. The results showed that TH positive neurons and neurites in the substantia nigra compacts (SNc) and striatum in the normal side of the rat model of PD were decreased (P < 0.05), which proved the successful establishment of PD models. The NAA/Cr ratio of the injected side striatum of model group was lower than that of the normal side (P < 0.05). The ratios of Cho/Cr showed no significant difference between the two sides (P > 0.05). These results indicated that the modified 1.5T 1H-MRS should be a noninvasive technique which could provide useful information about the biochemical metabolites in striatum for the study of PD in rat model.

The use of nitrification inhibitors has been suggested as a strategy to decrease cadmium(Cd)accumulation in crops.However,the most efficient nitrification inhibitor for mitigating crop Cd accumulation remains to be elucidated,and whether and how changes in soil microbial structure are involved in this process also remains unclear.To address these questions,this study applied three commercial nitrification inhibitors,namely,dicyandiamide(DCD),3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate(DMPP),and nitrapyrin(NP),to pakchoi.The results showed that both DCD and DMPP(but not NP)could efficiently decrease Cd concentrations in pakchoi in urea-and ammonium-fertilized soils.In addition,among the three tested nitrification inhibitors,DMPP was the most efficient in decreasing the Cd concentration in pakchoi.The nitrification inhibitors decreased pakchoi Cd concentrations by suppressing acidification-induced Cd availability and reshaping the soil microbial structure;the most effective nitrification inhibitor was DMPP.Ammonia oxidation generates the most protons during nitrification and is inhibited by nitrification inhibitors.Changes in environmental factors and predatory bacterial abundance caused by the nitrification inhibitors changed the soil microbial structure and increased the potential participants in plant Cd accumulation.In summary,our study identified DMPP as the most efficient nitrification inhibitor for mitigating crop Cd contamination and observed that the soil microbial structural changes caused by the nitrification inhibitors contributed to decreasing Cd concentration in pakchoi.
