Objective To explore the possible risk factors that influence bone mineral density (BMD) in elderly men with type 2 diabetes. Methods A total of 80 elderly men with type 2 diabetes were included in this study. The BMD of lumbar vertebrae and femur were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). And fasting blood and urine samples were taken to check the biochemical levels of bone metabolism and blood glucose. The correlations between BMD and other related factors were analyzed. Results In this group, the prevalence rates of osteoporosis and osteopenia were 18. 6% and 53.8%, respectively. Body mass and body mass index (BMI) were positively correlated with BMD at all sites (r=0. 202~0. 298, P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). However, age and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc) were negatively correlated with BMD of lumbar and femoral neck (r=-0. 172~-0. 211 ,all P<0. 05). Leptin was not only positively correlated with the BMD of femoral neck and Ward's triangle, but also with body mass, BMI, fasting blood glucose (FBG), total cholesterol and HbAlc (r=0. 219 ~ 0. 509, P<0.05 or P<0.01). Using stepwise regression analysis, body mass was the predictor of BMD at all sites assessed, while the HbAlc and leptin levels could respectively influence BMD at femoral neck and Ward's triangle (r~2= 0. 196 ~ 0. 276, all P< 0. 01). Conclusions It may suggest that differential factors predict the variance of BMD at different sites in elderly men with type 2 diabetes.

Objective To investigate the relationship between apolipoprotein E ( ApoE ) gene polymorphism and cerebral infarction patients with different gender and etiological typing. Methods A total of 91 patients with cerebral infarction aged≥60 years ( cerebral infarction group) were enrolled. They were divided into either a large artery atherosclerotic (LAA) stroke group (n=37) or a small artery occlusion (SAO) stroke group (n=54) according to the Trial of Org 10172 in acute stroke treatment (TOAST) classification. A total of 105 age-,sex-,and residence-matched healthy subjects were enrolled as controls. A Nested Allele-Specific Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction Method was used to detect the ApoE gene polymorphism. The ApoE gene polymorphism of cerebral infarction of different gender and etiological typing were compared. Results ( 1 ) ApoE Genotypes of E2/2, E2/3, E2/4, E3/3, and E3/4 were detected,but the ApoE E4/4 was not detected. (2) There were no significant differences in the frequencies of ApoE genotypes and each gene carrier frequency between the cerebral infarction group and the control group (all P>0. 05). There was significant difference in ApoE genotype frequencies and each gene carrier frequency of the males between the cerebral infarction group and the control group (P<0. 01,P<0. 05). Both the E3/3 genotype frequency (56. 1%) and ε3 carrier frequency (78. 0%) of the cerebral infarction group were lower than the males of the control group ( 79. 2% and 89. 6% respectively );both the E3/4 genotype frequency (31. 7%) and ε4 carrier frequency (15. 9%) were higher than the control group (7. 5% and 3. 8%respectively). There was no significant differences in the ApoE genotype frequency and gene carrier frequency in female participants between the two groups (all P>0. 05). (3) There were no significant differences in the ApoE genotype frequency and gene carrier frequency among the LAA,SAO,and control groups. There was significant difference in the ApoE genotype frequency and gene carrier frequency in males between the LAA group and the control group (P>0. 01);the genotype frequencies of E2/3 and E3/E3 (6. 7% and 46. 7%),ε2,as well as theε3 carrier frequency (3. 3% and 73. 3%) of LAA were lower than those of the control group (13. 2%,79. 2%,6. 6%,and 89. 6%,respectively);the E3/4 genotype frequency andε4 carrier frequency of the LAA subtype were 46. 7% and 23. 3% respectively. They were all higher than 7. 5% and 3. 8% in the control group. However,there were no significant differences in males among the SAO group,the control group,and the 3 groups of females ( the LAA subtype,SAO subtypes,and the control group) (P>0. 05). Conclusion ε4 gene may be a risk factor for LAA in males. The association of ApoE gene polymorphism with cerebral infarction in females is not found.

Objective To evaluate the impact of vagal denervation (VD) that is derived from circumferential ablation of pulmonary vein ostium for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) on the therapeutic results. Methods A total of 50 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation were enrolled in this study. Circumferential ablation of pulmonary vein ostium was carried out in all the patients. The end point of ablation was pulmonary vein electricity isolation. The patients in whom VD occurred during the performance of ablation were regarded as VD- positive group (n = 19), and the remaining patients were used as VD- negative group (n = 31). The recurrence rate of AF six months after the treatment was recorded, and the results were compared between the two groups. Results The end point of ablation was successfully achieved in all the fifty cases. Six months after the ablation, the therapeutic effect of VD- positive group was significantly better than that of VD- negative group (84.21% vs 64.51%, P ≤ 0.05). Conclusion The vagal denervation effect that is derived from circumferential ablation of pulmonary vein ostium in treating AF can significantly increase the success rate of radiofrequency ablation for AF.
