2.Characteristic of hyperuricemia in patients with type 2 diabetes and association between serum uric acid level and components of the metabolic syndrome
Journal of Chinese Physician 2008;10(11):1447-1449
Objective To evaluate the clinical and biochemical characteristics of type 2 diabetics with hyperuricemia and to investi-gate the association between serum uric acid and the number of metabolic syndrome components. Method In the cross-sectional study of 547 type 2 diabetics, we recorded body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure(SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and collected blood samples to measure serum uric acid (UA), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc), creatinine (Cr) and blood lipid profile, including tfiglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density cholesterol LDL-C) and high-density cholesterol (HDL-C). Results Compared with the normal UA group, the diabetic patients in the high UA group had significantly increased levels of BMI, SBP, DBP, FPG, Cr, TG, TC and HbA1c (P <0.05, P <0.01, P <0.05, P <0.01, P <0.01), and decreased level of HDL-C(P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the level of LDL-C between the two groups (P > 0.05). According to their possession of 1, 2, 3 or 4 components of metabolic syndrome, 547 cases were divided into four groups (MSI, MS2,MS3 and MS4). There were significant difference in the levels of UA, BMI, SBP, DBP, Cr, TG, TC, LDL-C and HDL-C among MSI, MS2, MS3 and MS4 (All P < 0.05). Multiple regression analysis showed that UA concentration was positively correlated with sex, TG and Cr (Beta:0. 088,0. 350, 0. 124; P < 0.05, P <0.01, P <0.01) and negatively correlated with HDL-C and HbA1 c(Beta: -0.107, -0.124 ; P <0.01, P <0.01). The con-centration of UA was strongly correlated with serum TG. Conclusions Serum UA level in type 2 diabetics was significantly elevated as the number of metabolic components increased. Abnormal TG had great influence on serum UA. Hyperuricemia was considered to be a dangerous factor of the metabolic syndrome.

Objective To study the correlation between blood lactic acid level and PCIS scroing system.To study the relationship between dynamic lactic acid monitoring indexes and prognosis of critical patients.Methods Differences of mortality,incidence of MODS and shock,PCIS score between two groups were compared.The patients were divided into 3 groups by PCIS score to compare pathogenetic conditions prognosis, then to study the were divided into death group and survival group by the hospital prognosis. Differences of their lactic indexes and other clinical indicators which reflected organ/system status were compared, prognostic-significant lactic indexes were selected by mu fti-variable logistic analysis. Results Patients with elevated lactic acid level had more incidence of shock and MODS, higher PCIS scores and higher mortality, the differences had statistical significance compared with the normal lactic acid group. There were significant linear correlation between ICU lactic acid level, peak lactic acid level and PCIS scores respectively. For the patients with elevated lactic acid level, peak lactic acid level, 12h lactic clearance had significant correlation with prognosis. Conclusion PCIS scoring system had a significant linear correlation with lactic acid level. For the patients with elevated lactic acid level,peak lactic acid level,12h lactic clearance were good indicators to evaluate patients' prognosis.

Objective To explore the application of scene type trace method in physiology teach-ing reform. Methods 2009 grade clinical medicine students in Zunyi Medical College were randomly di-vided into two groups:control group (n=111) and experiment group (n=108). Students in control group were taught by traditional teaching method while those in experimented group by scene type trace method. According to the questionnaire survey and the final exam statistical analysis,the effects of teach-ing were evaluated. SPSS 15.0 software was used to do statistical analysis. Qualitative data were analyzed by chi-square test of completely randomized design and two sets of frequency distribution while quantita-tive data by independent samples t test. P<0.05 means that difference is statistically significant. Results There were statistically differences in satisfaction degree of two teaching methods. More students were sat-isfied with scene type trace method than traditional teaching method. Final exam achievement in scene type trace method group(79.90±14.25,90.74%)were higher than that in the traditional teaching method group(72.35±17.09,83.78%). Conclusions Physiology teaching scene type trace method is helpful to improve the students' learning initiative and significantly improve students' learning achieve-ment.

Objective To investigate the effect of rosiglitazone on the epithelial-mesenchymal transition process of renal tubular epithelial cell induced by transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β). Methods The human renal tubular epithelial cell line HK-2 was cultured in vitro and treated with TGF-β at the presence or absence of rosiglitazone, and the morphological changes of HK-2 cells were observed. Then PPARγ,SMAD family number 2/ 3,E-cadherin and Vimentin were detected by western blot, and the mRNA expression of PPARγ, E-cadherin, Vimentin, zinc finger transcription factor Snail and Slug were measured by realtime quantitative PCR. Finally,dual luciferase reporter assay was performed to detect the effect of TGF-β and rosiglitazone on the tran-scription activity of E-cadherin promoter. Results TGF-β could induce the EMT process of HK-2, including morphological changes such as longer pseudopod and broader cell space. TGF-β also activated the SMAD2/ 3 signaling pathway, with expression changes of E-cadherin and Vimentin. Rosiglitazone reversed the morphological changes of HK-2 cells induced by TGF-β, with shor-ter pseudopod and narrower cell space. Rosiglitazone also inhibited the mRNA and protein expressions of Vimentin, and restored the mRNA and protein expression of E-cadherin by up-regulating PPARγ. The activity of E-cadherin promoter was enhanced under the treatment of rosiglitazone. Conclusion Rosiglitazone can antagonize the EMT process of renal tubular epithelial cell induced by TGF-β, through the activation of PPARγ and stimulating transcription and protein expression of E-cadherin.

Melanoma is the most aggressive and lethal malignant tumor in skin cancers. Operation resection is used to treat stageⅠ/Ⅱmelanomas, but traditional operation, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy inflicts adverse effects on late-stage melanomas. StageⅢ/Ⅳmelanomas are some of the most ineffectively treated tumors with poor prognosis. As a cancer treatment, targeted immunotherapy in-hibits negative regulatory factors and enhances systemic anti-tumor immune effects. Radiotherapy not only kills tumor cells, but also en-hances systemic immune responses. Recent studies showed that targeted immunotherapy combined with radiotherapy can promote con-trol on local and distant tumors and prolong overall survival. The synergistic effects of these two therapies are superior to a single thera-py. This review summarized the progress on these research fields.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the leading death cause of pulmonary diseases, ranking the fourth of global death causes. Self-management program is able to gradually improve the Airways of COPD patients with ventilation, reduce the degree of lung failure, elevate the health status as well as promoting self-efficacy, which is the key process to effectively control COPD relapse. In recent years, more and more domestic and foreign academic employ the widely-used network technology and carry out a large number of information study on COPD self-management intervention. This article reviewed literatures about the intervention methods on self-management of patients suffered from COPD, aimed at providing a better basis for exploring more effective self-management.
