AIM:To study the effect of Ketangte2 (KTT2)on reducing blood glucose and its mechanism.METHODS:Adrenalin and streptozocin were used to induce hyperglycemia in two mice models,and then treated them with glybenzcyclamide (50 mg/kg),three different dose of KTT2 and normal saline(NS)(0.1 ml/10 g weight)for 15 days.And other healthy mice were set up as control group,During the experiment,the fast blood glucose(FBG),insulin was measured in different time.The pancreas and islets of diabetic mice induced by STZ were studied by pathologic section.RESULTS:In the adrenalin-induced model group,KIT2 could lighten hyperglycemic reaction,which Was significant different from that of model group(P＜0.05 or 0.01),while KTT2 high,middle dose group could decrease blood glucose in streptozocin-induced hypoglycemic mice obviously(P＜0.01).Histological examination showed that pancreatic island number in pancreas in KTT2 groups increased in comparison with the model group.CONCLUSION:KTT2 can obviously reduce the blood glucose in the two kinds of animal models of hyperglycemia (P＜0.05 or 0.01).Its mechanism may be related to the protective effect on islet β cells,thereby increase the insulin secretion.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum Golgi protein-73 (GP73)level and related indexes of he-patic fibrosis in patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis diseases and discuss the clinical value of GP73.Methods The level of GP73 was detected by ELISA;the levels of type Ⅳ precollagen (Ⅳ-C)and hyaluronic acid (HA)were measured by radio-immunity in serum from 11 patients with acute hepatitis B (AHB),31 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB),71 patients with Hepatitis B Cirrhosis (LC),23 patients with primary hepatic carcinoma (PHC)and 34 healthy people with check-up. The clinical changes and relationship between the GP-73 level and the parameter of fibrous degeneration were studied.Re-sults The GP73 level in CHB group was 118.0±82.2μg/L;the GP73 level in LC group was 154.4±87.7μg/L and the GP73 level in PHC group was 196.5±89.6μg/L.Compared with the normal control group,statistically significant differ-ence were found in GP73 level of CHB group,LC group and PHC group (t values were -7.284,-7.909 and -9.609,re-spectively;P<0.01).As the progress of liver cirrhosis,the levels of GP73,Ⅳ-C and HA all increased gradually and the level of GP73 was significantly positively correlated to Ⅳ-C and HA (r valves were -0.212 and 0.487,respectively;P<0.01). Conclusion The GP73 was high expressed in chronic liver disease,especially in liver cirrhosis.The GP73 was significantly associated with the occurrence of hepatitis b liver fibrosis.There fore,GP73 could be used as a better index to monitor the fi-brosis degree.

SUMMARY The male patient reported here presented as gangrene and central diabetes insipidus ( CDI) , who had characteristics of vasculitis. The patient complained about polydipsia and polyuria half a year ago, and then developed tingling, pain and blackish discoloration of some fingers and toes 3 month ago. He also had Raynaud' s phenomenon. After admission, his laboratory examination showed the rise of erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, immunoglobulin,β2-glycoproteinⅠand the activi-ty of rheumatoid factors, lupus anticoagulant test. his pituitary gland showed loss of posterior signal on magnetic resonance imaging. In addition, his vasopressin test was active. However, there was no suffi-cient evidence to diagnose any specific disease;as a consequence the patient was diagnosed as idiopathic systemic necrotizing vasculitis ( SNV) . For SNV, the patient was treated with glucocorticoid 40 mg/d and impact therapy of cyclophosphamide 0. 4 g every 2 weeks. He also received symptomatic treatment for gangrene and CDI. Cutaneous involvement leading to gangrene was widely reported in SNV, however pi-tuitary involvement in SNV leading to CDI was rare. The prognosis of this patient was poor.

BACKGROUND:There are some poisonous and hazard materials released from decoration materials and office furniture that will deteriorate the air of office if the ventilation of air-condition system is not very good. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of newly decorated air-condition office to human health. DESIGN:A retrospective observational comparative study taking the office staff in newly decorated air-conditioned environment as the subjects and the office staff in natural ventilation environment with same decoration as the controls. SETTINGS:Occupational medicine department of a disease control and prevention center of a city. PARTICIPANTS:This study was conducted in the Department of Occupational Medicine of Dalian Centre for Disease Control and Prevention from April to May 2001.Inclusive criteria:office staff in a newly decorated and airconditioned telecommunication building of either sex;Exclusive criteria:people with acute or chronic disease history.Twenty-three office staff working in the airconditioned office was chosen as the observational group,the ratio of male to female was 12 to 11,aged from 24 to 51 with the mean age of 33.1 years old,average length of service of 14.2 years and average working length in air-conditioned office of 6.8 months.Other 23 office staff was randomly selected from natural ventilation office in the same building with the same decoration condition,the ratio of male to female was 10 to 13,aged from 22 to 58 with mean age of 36 years old, average length of service of 16.7 years and working length in this office for 8.2 months. INTERVENTIONS:To monitor the volatile organic compounds,hazard substance and microclimate in the decorated office with air-conditioner and conduct investigation to the health status of staff. Subjective symptoms between staff in different offices. RESULTS:The concentration of formaldehyde and ammonia exceeded the national hygienic standards in both air-conditioner and naturally ventilation offices,in which formaldehyde exceeded 6.1 and 2.3 times respectively while ammonia exceeded 8.5 and 2.3 times respectively.The illumination,assessment index of positive and negative ions and total bacteria in office with air-conditioner were lower than those of natural ventilation office (P< 0.01).The symptoms manifested in staff working in air-conditioned office such as dizziness,headache,chest pain,dry eye,decreased vision and menoxenia were more distinct than control group(P< 0.01).Dry mouth and hair losing were also more popular in air-conditioned group(P< 0.05). CONCLUSION:More attention should be paid to choosing environmental friendly building and decoration materials and office furniture when decorating.It is very important to make sure the ventilation of air-conditioner is normal and there is enough air change flow.
