Objective To estimate the influence of abnormal glucose metabolism during pregnancy and family history of cardio-cerebrovascular disease and/or diabetes on umbilical C-peptide concentrations. Methods Chesed 85 pregnant women who had prenatal examination and their newborns as the subjects. Thirty-six newborns of mothers with gestational diabetes mellitus, impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes mellitus with pregnancy and 49 newborns of mothers with normal glucose tolerance were randomly chosed as the control group. All newborns were also classified according to whether their maternal grandparents had history of diabetes and/or cardio-cerebrovaacular disease. Therefore, there were four groups in this study: 25 newborns in group A were of diabetic mothers and positive family history, 11 newborns in group B were of diabetic mothers but negative family history, 9 newborns in group C were of mothers with normal glucose tolerance but positive family history, 40 newborns in group D were of mothers with normal glucose tolerance and negative family history. The blood samples of umbilical veins were collected at the time of delivery. Umbilical C-peptide levels of the four groups were measured by radioimmunonssay. Results The umbilical C-peptide concentrations of newborns in group A, B, C, D were (2.22±1.52), (1.44±0.63), (1.13± 0.34), (1.31±0.69) μg/L respectively, the umbilical C-peptide concentrations of newborns in group A were elevated compared to those of other three groups (F=5.11, P=0.003), and there were no significant differences in C-peptide levels of newborns between the three groups (group B vs C P=0.499, group B vs D P=0.694, group C vs D P=0.642). Conclusion Special attention should be given to newborns of diabetic mothers and whose maternal grandparents have history of diabetes and/or cardio-cerebrovascular disease.

Objective The experiment aims at probing the best condition of the isolation and purification of rat islets.Methods The islets were isolated from rat pancreas by hepatopancreatic duct perfusing with collagenase and purified with Ficoll 400 discontinuous density gradient centrifugation.Then the purified islets were subjected to histological staining,electron microscopy and radioimmunoassay for identification of specificity and viability.Results The histological staining revealed that the viability and the purity of the purified islets were above 95％and 85％respectively.Electron microscopy showed that the purified islets were morphologically intact with clear membrane and plenty of secreting granules.Radioimmunoassay demonstrated the secreted insulin concerntration between low-glucose groups and high-glucose groups varied significantly,which verified the good function of the islets.Conclusion Hepatopancreatic duct perfusing with collagenase is a good method for digestion.There aye many factors that influence the quantity and quality of the acquired islets,such as the completed expansion of pancreas,the concentration and viability of collagenase and the digested time,etc.

Objective To investigate the psychological characteristics of the patients with functional dyspep-sia(FD). Methods The Zung serf-rating anxiety scale(SAS) and the Zung serf-rating depression scale(SDS) were employed to evaluate the anxiety mood and depression mood respectively of 110 FD patients ( group A) and 100 healthy volunteers (group B). The incidences of anxiety and depression in patients < 60 years and patients ≥60 years in group A were determined respectively. Results The anxiety ( 50.2±10.5 ) and depression scores ( 51.8±10.8)of group A were higher than group B [ (33.6±5.7) , ( 42.9±9.6) ] with a significant difference ( P<0.01 ). In group A, the anxiety incidence(66.0% ) in patients < 60 years was higher than patients ≥ 60 years (38.3%) ,while the de-pression incidence in patients ≥60 years(61.7% ) was higher than patients <60 years(42.0% ) ,both with signifi-cant differences ( all P<0.05 ). Conclusion FD patients show the psychological characteristics of anxiety and de-pression, and the characteristics type may vary in different age groups.

Methods Twenty cases patients with CN who were diagnosed in General Hospital of the Chinese People Air Force from June 2008 to June 2013 and 58 patients with diabetic neuropathic ulcer who were hospitalized from January 2010 to December 2011 and followed up until June 2014 without foot deform?ity were retrospectively analyzed. All patient's general condition, examination and laboratory results, diabetic chronic complications,complication,diabetes distribution of foot ulcers,and plain features. Results There were no statistically significant differences in terms of patients' average age, sex ratio, proportion of smokers, BMI, HbA1c,blood lipid,dorsalis pedis artery diameter and diabetic nephropathy (Ⅲ?Ⅳperiod) ,chronic kidney dis?ease stage 3 above,proliferation diabetic retinal pathological changes,the prevalence of coronary heart disease between the two groups(P>0. 05). Compared with NU group,patients with single high proportion(40. 00%(8/20) vs. 10. 34%(6/58)),Short duration of diabetes((12. 37±5. 64) years vs. (14. 27±8. 04) years),Feet long numbness(6(5,9) years vs. 4(2,20) years),low rate of hardening of the arteries narrow(ABI<0. 9)( 0 ( 0/20) vs. 39. 66%( 13/58) ) ,high recurrent diabetic foot ulcer prevalence( 70. 00%( 14/20) vs. 25. 86%( 15/58)),more patients with diabetes mellitus autonomic neuropathy(75. 00%(15/20) vs. 39. 66%(23/58)),less combined with hypertension ( 25. 00%( 5/20 ) vs. 58. 62%( 34/58 ) ) , the differences were significant ( t orχ2=6. 981,2. 259,4. 068,3. 887,12. 405,7. 436,6. 724;P<0. 05) . Diabetic foot wound distribution on mesopodi?um of CN group and NU group was 36. 84%(7/19),6. 90%(4/58) respectively,the difference was significant (χ2=11. 443,P=0. 003) . Diabetic foot amputation rate( Wanger 4,5 grade) of CN group and NU group was 44. 44%(4/9),6. 90%(2/29) respectively,the difference was significant(χ2=4. 732,P=0. 020). Conclusion The characteristics of high?risk groups of diabetics Charcot foot in the people with diabetic foot neuropathic ulcerations are middle aged,no foot of ischemia,combine the diabetic autonomic neuropathy and the feet always with recurrent ulcers.

273 chinese have been studied with high voltage electrophoresis and immumofixation to survey the polymorphism of the third component of human complement in Shaanxi Provice Two C_3 phenotypes were found in this population, they are C_3SS and C_3FS The frequencies of C_3SS and C_3FS are 98.53% and 1.47% respectively. The frequency of C_3S gene is 0.9926 and C_3F gene 0.0073. These results are similar to other studies in China and this group was in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Compared with Negro and Caucasian, the chinese population in Shaanxi Province has a significant difference in C_3 polymorphism.

Objective To explore the effect of activities of daily living (ADL) training on hemiplegia after stroke. Methods 50 stroke patients with hemiplegia were divided into treatment group (n=27), who received ADL training and physical therapy, and control group (n= 23), who only received physical therapy. They were evaluated with modified Barthel index (MBI) and the Brunnstrom classification. Results After 6 months of treatment, the score of MBI improved more in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in Brunnstrom stage (P>0.05). Conclusion ADL training can improve the recovery of ADL in hemiplegics after stroke.。

Objective To detect the levels of plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and investigate its relationship with liver function, ascites and heart structure in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods The levels of plasma NT-proBNP and various clinical and biochemical parameters were determined in 60 patients with liver cirrhosis and 30 healthy controls. Meanwhile Child-Pugh liver function was classified. All people underwent color Doppler echocardiography. Results The level of plasma NT-proBNP was significantly elevated in patients with liver cirrhosis [(38.63±36.05)pmol/L], compared with that of the controls [(7.50±8.25)pmol/L],P<0.01. There was no significant difference in different Child-Pugh class and aseites amount of liver cirrhosis. E/A < 1 and E wave decelerate time (EDT) was in-creased in liver cirrhosis. Conclusion The levels of plasma NT-proBNP in liver cirrhosis are significantly elevated, and related to early impairment of diastolic function. But it does not correlate with liver function and aseites.
