To evaluate the application of nueroelectrophysiological tests in early diagnosis of sub-clinical neuropathy in diabetes mellitus (DM), The routine nerve conductive velocity (NCV), F-wave and sympathetic skin response (SSR) were detected in 27 patients with diabetes mellitus but without symptoms and signs of lesions of nerve system. Our results showed that 48.1%, 44.4%, 51.9% of the patients were found to have abnormal NCV, F-wave and SSR respectively. The abnormalities were mainly characterized by prolonged latency, reduced velocity and absence of wave-form. There were significant differences between the controls and the DM group (P < 0.05). Both the distal and proximal segments of nerves were affected and the distal lesions took place earlier than proximal ones and the changes in low extremities were more severe than those of upper extremities. F-wave can be used as a sensitive indicator for the early diagnosis of peripheral neuropathy and it can help to detect the subclincial lesions. SSR can be used for the evaluation of functional status of autonomic nerves in DM patients.

p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70S6K), an important member of AGC family, is a kind of multifunctional Ser/Thr kinases, which plays an important role in mTOR signaling cascade. The p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase is closely associated with diverse cellular processes such as protein synthesis, mRNA processing, glucose homeostasis, cell growth and apoptosis. Recent studies have highlighted the important role of S6K in cancer, which arose interests of scientific researchers for the design and discovery of anti-cancer agents. Herein, the mechanisms of S6K and available inhibitors are reviewed.

Objective To investigate the relationship between plasma neuropeptide Y(NPY) and asphyxia in newborns. Methods Thirty-seven patients with neonatal asphyxia (asphyxia group) and 33 healthy pregnant women(control group )in their third trimester were chosen. The concentrations of plasma NPY were measured by radioimmunoassay. Results The levels of NPY in umbilical artery plasma was (187.47? 46.63) ng/L in asphyxia group,and (115.33?29.42) ng/L in control group. There were significant difference between them ( P 0.05). Conclusions The neonatal asphyxia was associated with NPY. NPY might play an important role in the pathophysiological changes in neonatal asphyxia.

Objective To understand the relationship among junior college students' anxious status in testing and studying behaviors and studying result. Methods TAS anxiety scale was used for the evaluation of anxious status, and data were analyzed by SPSS software. Results Statistical significance was observed among different specialties. Sex, socioeconomic status and living environment did not affect TAS score. The higher the anxious status was, the worse the studying results will be. The anxious status was associated with some studying behaviors. Conclusions Anxiety was correlated with specialities and studying behaviors, and affected studying result.

Percutaneous vertebroplasty has many advantages such as minimal trauma, simple mode of operation, rapid and correct therapeutic effect, high safety, and wide indications. Therefore it has been generally paid close attention and accepted. Percutaneous vertebroplasty has conspicuous curative effect, especially in vertebral compression fracture. Polymethyl methacrylate is the most used filling materials at present; There is not significant difference between unipedicular and bipedicular vertebroplasty; Using vertebral body venography and appropriate dense bone cement can reduce leakage of bone cement; Bolster for self-replacement can rebound vertebral body height, and balloon kyphoplasty and sky bone expander kyphoplasty can be avoided; In order to reduce refracture of vertebral body, anti-osteoporosis drugs should be used in the treatment of percutaneous vertebroplasty.

Objective To compare the efficacy of total pelvic floor reconstruction with mesh patch and vaginal hysterectomy with anterior and posterior vaginal wall repair for presby-pelvic floor dysfunction patients.Methods We randomly chose 92 pelvic floor dysfunction inpatients of our hospital from September 2007 to February 2009 and divided them into 2 groups:total pelvic floor reconstruction group(n=70) underwent total pelvic floor reconstruction with mesh patch[12 patients of this group complicated with stress incontinence,4 patients received tension free vaginal tape-obturator(TVT-O) simultaneously];control group(n=22) received vaginal hysterectomy with anterior and posterior vaginal wall repair(3 patients of this group complicated with stress incontinence).A follow-up for 3 to 18 months after the surgery were taken in all the patients.Results In total pelvic floor reconstruction group,no recidivate case was found and the FOP scores and cure rate were 0 and 100% respectively.In control group,there were 7 recidivate cases,all of who were primary vagina anterior wall bulge patients.The cure rate of control group was 68%;For the patients complicated with stress incontinence,they were all cured by TVT-0 or by ascending the front patch in total pelvic floor reconstruction group,but 1 case was as before operation and 2 cases were even worse in control group.Conclusion Total pelvic floor reconstruction with vicarious materials had a definite efficacy for presby-pelvic floor dysfunction.

Objective By comparing the plasma levels of adiponectin respectively in colorectal carcinoma patients to healthy controls to discuss the relationship between adiponectin and colorectal carcinoma. Methods Plasma samples collected from 38 colorectal cancer cases, 38 healthy controls, respectively, were analyzed with a specific ELISA assay. Results The mean adiponectin levels in colorectal cancer pa-tients and healthy controls were 159.89 and 184.5 pg/mL,respectively. Obviously colorectal cancer patients had significantly lower plasma adiponectin concentrations compared with healthy controls(P=0.001). And a inverse correlation was found between plasma adiponectin levels and tumor size with significantly lower levels of adiponectin in tumors≥5 cm (P=0.04), while no similar relationship was found between adiponectin and p53, Dukes stages(P>0.05). Conclusions Lower plasma levels of adiponectin are associated with color-ectal carcinogenesis closely. And the lower plasma levels of diponectin were positively related to the degree of tumor size. It can presume that adiponectin play a vital role in the process of colorectal carcinogenesis.

Objective To systematically review the efficacy and safety of drug-eluting stent(DES) versus coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) in the treatment of left anterior descending coronary artery(CAD) stenosis.Methods Literature about the efficacy and safety of DES versus CABG for LAD stenosis was retrieved from digital databases of MEDLINE, EMbase, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library by November 2016.Data extraction and quality assessment of included studies were conducted by two independent reviewers.RevMan 5.3 software was used to perform meta-analysis.Results Ten studies involving 9771 patients were finally included.The results of meta-analysis showed that there was no significant difference in mortality [RR=0.88,95%CI(0.70,1.11),P=0.28],major adverse cardiovascular events[MACE,RR=1.04,95%CI(0.88,1.24),P=0.63] or myocardial infarction [MI,RR=0.92,95%CI(0.56,1.53),P=0.75], but PCI-DES significantly increased the risk of TVR [OR=2.43,95%CI(1.61,3.69),P<0.0001].Conclusion For LAD stenosis, PCI-DES strategy causes as high a rate of mortality, MACE and MI as CABG or DES, but PCI-DES can significantly increase the risk of TVR, so we should be cautious clinically.

Objective To detect the changes of gastric emptying function by gastroenteric contrastenhanced ultrasonography and to offer the evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of diabetic gastroparesis.Methods The gastric emptying function was measured by gastroenteric contrast-enhanced ultrasonography in 35 cases of diabetic gastroparesis (DGP,DGP group) and 35 volunteers (control group).The gastric emptying rate(GER) and emptying time(ET) after taking orally gastroenteric ultrasound developer in DGP group were observed and compared with control group.Results The GER in DGP group was lower than that in control group [(27.05 ± 11.32)％ vs.(45.38 ± 15.08) ％] (P ＜ 0.05).The ET in DGP group was longer than that in control group[(102.43 ± 15.76) min vs.(75.31 ± 11.52) min] (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The method of gastroenteric contrast-enhanced ultrasonography is a simple,and repeatable imaging method,which can be used to make a real-time assessment on the gastric dynamic changes,but don't influence gastroenteric function and can provide a dependent and noninvasive examine means for clinical physician to test the gastric emptying function in DGP.
