Objective To investigate the prevalences of metabolic disorders of glucose and lipids in the first degree relatives (FDP) of type 2 diabetic patients in Qingdao,China. Methods 1392 subjects were recruited,including 528 T2DM-FDR(parent and/or siblings have T2DM) and 864 NC-FDR(parent and siblings did not have DM). All subjects received both standard 75g oral glucose tolerance test and measurements of body weight,height,waist and hip circumference,percentage of body fat,blood pressure,blood lipid,and plasma uric acid. Results (1) The prevalence of diabetes was higher in DM-FDR than in NC-FDR (24.24% vs 17.01%,P

To evaluate the curative effect of antisense telomerase ODN on malignant glioma cells. The activity of telomerase in 16 fresh malignant gliomas was detected positive by PCR ELISA method. After covered with lipofectin, the 5?mol/L telomerase ODN was incubated with cultured gliomas cells. PCNA, TUNEL positive rate and the phase of cell cycle were detected by FcM per 24h. The results showed: Anti sense ODN inhibited telomerase activity after being applied for 48 hours, and inhibition was complete at 72 hours, The ODN inhibited proliferation of malignant gliomas and promoted their apoptosis markedly at 72 hours. After 96 hours, most transfected glioma cells were stopped to grow at G 2/M phase, and the number of apoptosis cells increased as time went on. The results suggested that anti sense telomerase ODN could inhibit the telomerase activity, and in turn promote aptoptosis of glioma cells and inhibit the growth of the tumor.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the relationship between waist to stature ratio (WSR) and hypertension,diabetes,dyslipidemia in Qingdao. MethodsData were collected from a 2001 - 2007 Qingdao area diabetes survey,population-based cross-sectional study,and 30 712 Chinese adults aged ＞ 18 years old were enrolled.Correlation analysis of BMI,WSR,hip circumference,waist circumference,waist to hip ratio (WHR) with blood glucose,blood pressure,blood lipid were conducted.ROC curve analysis in diabetes,bypertension,dyslipidemia and multivariate logistic regression analysis were also conducted.ResultsAnthropometric indicators were related with hypertension,diabetes and dyslipidemia in both men and women.Comparing with other anthropometric indicators,WSR was found to have the largest area under the ROC curve and the best cut-off point of WSR was 0.52.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that, after controlling age, disease history, physicalactivity, sex, thediabeteshypertension and dyslipidemia risk OR of WSR≥0.52 were largest.ConclusionsAnthropometric indicators intimately related with cardiovascular risk factors in Qingdao region,and may predict and evaluate the risk of cardiovascular disease.WSR may be the best index for predicting cardiovascular risk factors in Qingdao area.The optimal WSR cut off point for identifying cardiovascular risk factors clustering is 0.52.

Objective To investigate effective approach to decrease portal venous hypertension and high perfusion of portal vein caused by small-for-size (SFS) liver graft transplantation with the aim of improving hepatocellular microcirculation.Methods Rat models with SFS liver graft (n =62) were well estab lished and divided into SFS group and trans-portal intrabepatic portosystemic shunt (TPIPSS) group.Hemodynamic parameters,histopathologically morphologic changes,postoperative complications,accumulated survival rate were recorded and analyzed.Venous filling time after liver reperfusion,hemodynamic parameters were evaluated using t test and Kruskal-Wallis test.Kaplan-Meier method was performed for survival analysis.Results Venous filling time after liver reperfusion was remarkably prolonged with the application of multihole cone-shaped tubes.Compared with SFS group,the filling time was 4-second longer in TPIPSS.At each endpoints of reperfusion within 90 mins,the portal vein pressures were lowered in the TPIPSS group than those of SFS group.Liver grafts were present with more regular structures in TPIPSS group,with no sign of hepatic sinusoid congestion or irregular clearance extension.In the aspect of postoperative complications,all the rat receivers showed ascites in the SFS group.Nevertheless,there was no ascites observed in TPIPSS rats,and 50％ rats (5/10) experienced clinical manifestations of hepatic encephalopathy.Persistent fever over 7 days was showed in 10％ rats (1/10) of SFS group and 40％ rats (4/10) of TPIPSS group,respectively.The mean survival was superior in TPIPSS group (37.2 ± 23.5) d than SFS group (17.7 ± 13.5) d,P ＜ 0.05.Conclusion TPIPSS could be a safe and feasible approach to improve portal venous hypertension caused by SFS liver graft and hepatocellular reperfusion.

Objective To characterize the baseline status of Chinese diabetic patients based on data derived from Chinese cohort from SOLVETM study.Methods Patients with type 2 diabetes initiating basal insulin detemir at the decision of the physician were eligible for the study.Data on demographics,medical history,glycemic profile and treatment regimen at baseline were collected by physicians.Results A total of 3272 patients [female 42％,male 58％,mean age (56.2 ± 10.8) years] were included in the study.Their BMI was (25.3 ± 3.3) kg/m2.The duration of diabetes was 4.0 (0.1-27.0) years,and the duration of treatment with oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) was 3.0(0.0-20.2) years.The proportions of subjects with diabetic macro-and micro-vascular complications were 15.8％ (515 cases) and 27.1％ (866 cases),respectively.The hemoglobin Al c (HbAl c) at baseline was (8.33 ± 1.70) ％,and the fasting blood glucose (FPG) was (9.5 ± 2.6) mmol/L.Conclusions A large proportion of patients with type 2 diabetes remain in poor glycemic control,and the prevalence of diabetic complications is high,which requires optimal therapeutic strategy for the patients with suboptimal glycemic control.
