Objective : To identify the factors affecting microvascular complications among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM), so as to provide insights into the management of microvascular complications of T2DM. Methods: T2DM patients hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology of a tertiary hospital in Weifang City, Shandong Province from January 2021 to January 2022 were enrolled, and subjects' basic information, lifestyle and medical history were collected using questionnaire surveys. Fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin were measured, and factors affecting microvascular complications were identified among T2DM patients using a multivariable logistic regression model and a decision tree model. Results: Totally 1 003 T2DM inpatients were enrolled, including 515 men (51.35%) and 488 women (48.65%), and the prevalence of microvascular complications was 40.18%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age of 60 years and older (OR=2.510, 95%CI: 1.441-4.374), T2DM duration of 10 years and longer (OR=3.205, 95%CI: 2.242-4.581), fasting insulin of lower than 3.21 μIU/mL (OR=1.749, 95%CI: 1.239-2.469), using of agents or insulin to control blood glucose (OR=1.880, 95%CI: 1.143-3.092), glycated hemoglobin level of 7% and higher (OR=1.751, 95%CI: 1.172-2.615) as factors affecting microvascular complications among T2DM patients. Decision tree analysis identified course of T2DM as a major factor affecting the risk of microvascular complications among T2DM patients, and the prevalence of microvascular complications was 70.22% among T2DM patients with disease course of 10 years and longer and fasting insulin of lower than 3.21 μIU/mL or 16.32 μIU/mL and higher, 44.23% among T2DM patients with disease course of 5 to 10 years and at ages of 60 years and older, and 43.10% among T2DM patients with disease course of less than 5 years and fasting insulin of lower than 3.21 μIU/mL. Conclusion Advanced age, long course of T2DM, low fasting insulin and high glycated hemoglobin may increase the risk of microvascular complications among T2DM patients.

Objective To construct cecropin A-thanatin combinant gene engineering antimicrobial peptide gene CA(1-7)-T(4-19) for expression in Pichia pastoris.Methods The combinant antimicrobial peptide gene was artificially synthesized via gene splicing by overlap extension (SOE).The gene was cloned into the pPICZαA vector and transformed into Pichia pastoris X-33 by electroporation.The positive clones obtained by the screening of bleomycin resistance were induced by methanol ,and the antibacterial activity of the products was detected and the antimicrobial spectrum was established.Results The combinant peptide gene CA (1-7)-T (4-19) was successfully cloned on the carrier pPICZαA.The identification results were consistent with the pre-designed gene sequence.The combinant peptide gene was expressed under the induction of methanol ,and the minimum inhibitory concentration of 76 strains of Gram-egative and Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria isolated from the clinic was obtained ,and the minimum inhibitory concentration was up to 5 μg/mL.Conclusion A combinant genetic engineering antimicrobial peptide with antibacterial activity was obtained successfully and it had obvious inhibition effect on clinical common multidrug-resistant strains.
