Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2015;31(2):109-113
Objective To investigate the status of diabetes distress in patients with middle-andhigh risk of diabetic foot and explore the impact of self-perceived burden and social support on diabetes distress.Methods Totally 205 patients with middle-and-high risk of diabetic foot were investigated with Diabetes Distress Scale,Self-perceived Burden Scale and Social Support Scale.Results The total average score of diabetes distress was (2.59±0.57),the diabetes distress level was correlated with self-perceived burden,dimensions of social support (r=0.481~0.653) and were influenced by gender,vocation,objective support,use of support.Conclusions Diabetes distress is widespread in patients with middleand-high risk of diabetic foot and was influenced by many factors,these provide the basis for taking effective interventions to reduce diabetes distress.

Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2013;(6):362-368
Objective To explore the glucose and liplid metabolism changes of pregnant rats and the birth weight of their offsprings due to pregnancy malnutrition,including overnutrition and undernutrition.Methods Thirty pregnant Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups on the day of conception,the high-fat-diet group,normal control group and 50% food-restricted diet group.Increase of body weight and serum level of triglycerides,high-density lipoprotein,low-density lipoprotein,oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and insulin release test(IRT) levels during pregnancy were measured.The birth weight of offsprings was recorded within 12 h after birth.One-way ANOVA,LSD or Dunnett T3,and Chi-square test were applied for statistical analysis.Results The body weight at late pregnancy and the level of triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein were significantly increased in the high-fat-diet rats compared to normal control ones [(1.68±0.13) mmol/L vs (0.78±0.08) mmol/L,(0.57±0.04) mmol/L vs (0.35±0.07) mmol/L; both P<0.01].While the level of high-density lipoprotein of high-fat-diet rats was lower than that of the normal control rats [(0.56±0.06) mmol/L vs (1.09±0.08) mmol/L,P<0.05].The level of triglycerides,low density lipoprotein and high density lipoprotein in 50% food restricted group [(0.47±0.06) mmol/L,(0.21±0.06) mmol/L and (0.42±0.05) mmol/L] were lower than the control group (all P<0.05).Impaired glucose tolerance,abnormal OGTT and IRT results were found in both high-fat-diet and 50% foodrestricted diet rats.The fasting plasma glucose level in high-fat-diet group was significantly increased in late pregnancy compared to the control [(6.63±0.53) mmol/L vs (4.90±0.26) mmol/L,P<0.05],while there was no significant difference between rats in 50% food-restricted diet [(4.18±0.26) mmol/L]and control group (P>0.05).There was no statistical difference in fasting serum insulin level among the three groups.The average birth weight was significantly increased in high-fat-diet rats than in the control group [(6.14±0.31) g vs (5.73±0.26) g,P<0.05],and the incidence of macrosomic newborn rats in the high-fat-diet group was also higher than that of the control group [19.2 % (19/99)vs 7.84%(8/102),P<0.05].The birth weight of offspring in 50% food-restricted diet group was decreased with their average birth weight of (4.54±0.23) g,which was lower than that of the control group (P<0.05).The incidence of macrosomic [13.40% (11/76)] and low birth weight newborn rats [15.90% (13/76) vs 3.92%(4/102)] in food-restricted diet group were both higher than in the control group (P<0.05); and smaller number of offsprings was obtained than the control group (76 vs 102,P<0.05),the number of offsprings in high-fat-diet group was 99,which was less than the control group without statistical difference (P>0.05).Conclusions Pregnancy malnutrition,including overnutrition and undernutrition,may affect the lipid metabolism and glucose tolerance of pregnant rats,leading to insulin resistance,and may also contribute to the abnormal birth weight of the offspring,including macrosomia and low birth weight.
3.Relationship between adiponectin and diabetic retinopathy
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2017;33(3):324-327
The exact pathophysiological mechanisms of diabetic retinopathy (DR) remain elusive.The inflammatory reaction,retinal vascular leakage and retinal neovascularization are main features of DR.Adiponectin (APN) is an endogenous biological active protein secreted by adipocytes.It can increase insulin sensitivity,regulate blood glucose and lipid metabolism,and has anti-inflammation and anti-neovascularization functions.It may be involved in the development of DR.This review summarized the studies on the association between APN and DR in recent years.

Objective To establish a HPLC method for the determination of daphnetin, 7-OH coumarin and syringing in Zushima. Methods The separation was performed on YMC-Pack ODS (4.6 mm?250 mm, 5 ?m) column with a mobile phase consisting of methanol-0.5% acetic acid-water (19︰8︰1) as gradient elution at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The dual detective wavelength was set at 327 nm and 266 nm. The column temperature was 30 ℃. Results Baseline separation was achieved for the analysis of the three index components. The average recoveries were 98.4%~100.2%. Conclusion This method is convenient, rapid and accurate. It can be used for quality control in production of Zushima.

With the increase of Chinese people's material life level, their health consciousness has become more and more intense. Chinese Materia Medica, a treasure of Chinese medicine, has made a great contribution in maintaining people's health in the history. Patent is a kind of high-value scientific literature. In this paper, we retrieved the patents of the traditional medicines used in health care worldwide. The patents were further screened by a series of processes. Finally, multi-angle analysis was carried out on the dataset to form a patent analysis report of traditional medicines in health care, including the distribution of the patents, the application trends, the domestic and foreign geographical layout, the major applicant and its activity, the important technical areas, the important medicinal and its pharmacological properties and so on.

Depression is a common mental disorders, severe cases may affect people's lives. In the treatment of de-pression, appropriate medication, as an assistant approach to psychological support, is proved helpful to patients' re-covery. Western medicine's ingredients are simple and mechanism is clear. Given it meets parts of the demand, the total effect is not satisfactory yet. Traditional Medicine's advantage is systematic, it has advantage in treating complex diseases. Thus, more and more attention was paid to Traditional Medicine, especially Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In this paper, we use patent as data source to discover the law of the TCM's usage, the international differ-ences, the outstanding organization, and the hotspots of the drug research in the treatment of depression. Profiling of the current status can provide references in new drug finding and the progress of pharmacy. The results show that there are a few traditional Chinese medicine patents about treatment of depression associated with kidney, but de-pression and kidney also have a higher correlation. Medicines within soothing liver formulas such as Xiaoyaosan have many related patent.
