Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2016;23(4):54-57
Objective To observe the effects of sports with different strength combined with traditional Chinese medicine on expression of PGC-1α and function of vascular endothelium of IGT rats; To discuss the synergistic action and its mechanism.Methods Seventy healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into blank group (10 rats), which were given regular diet, and the other 60 rats were given high-glucose and high-lipoid diet to establish the IGT model rats, which were then randomly divided into 5 groups, including IGT model group (model group), simple Chinese medicine group (Chinese medicine group), low strength sports+Chinese medicine (low strength group), middle strength+Chinese medicine (middle strength group), and high strength sports+Chinese medicine groups (high strength group), 10 rats in each group. Rats in blank group, model group and Chinese medicine group exercised freely. While rats in different sport strength groups conducted treadmill exercise with different strength, and were givenDanzhi Jiangtang Capsules for gavage. Changes of NO, eNOS, vWF and EMP before and after the treatment were compared, the PGC-1α level was detected.Results Compared with the blank group, levels of NO, eNOS and PGC-1α decreased, while the levels of vWF and EMP increased in model group (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, levels of NO, eNOS and PGC-1α increased in all treatment groups, while the levels of vWF and EMP decreased (P<0.05,P<0.01). Conclusion Middle strength sports combined withDanzhi Jiangtang Capsules may effectively improve function of vascular endothelium.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between glycemic control and lipid profile in patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods The patients with type 2 diabetes taking oral antidiabetic agents only were investigated for their levels of blood glucose and lipid profile.With a standard for valid blood glucose control( HbA1c <7% ),the patients were divided into two groups,reached the goal group and not reached the goal group,and the lipid profile was compared between the two groups.Results Completed study had been obtained 173 patients,average HbAlc,7.9%,total success rate of glycemic control,with 43.4% being the figure reported.We can see a lower triglyceride( TG),total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) level and a higher high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level in the group reaching the stantard ( t =- 2.437,- 2.067,2.005,- 2.984,P =0.016,0.040,0.047,0.003).Conclusion The blood lipid profile should be considered while the level of glucose of patients with type 2 diabetes taking oral antidiabetic agents alone are controlled.
