Objective To observe the relationship between homocysteine (Hcy),C-reactive protein (CRP) and type 2 diabetes peripheral vascular disease (PVD).Methods Fifty-eight patients with type 2 diabetes according to the condition of PVD were divided into simple type 2 diabetes mellitus group (DM group,30 cases) and PVD group (28 cases).Twenty-five healthy people were chosen at the same period as control group.The fasting blood glucose (FBG),glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c),total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride (TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),Hcy and CRP levels were detected among 3 groups,and the body mass index (BMI),ankle brachial index(ABI) was calculated.Results The BMI,TG,TC and HDL-C levels among 3 groups had no statistical significance (P ＞0.05).The FBG,HbA1c and LDL-C in DM group and PVD group were significantly higher than those in control group [(7.54 ± 1.25),(8.12 ± 1.57) mmol/L vs.(4.68 ±0.54)mmol/L; (6.92 ± 0.89)％,(7.54 ± 0.97)％ vs.(4.80 ± 0.54)％ ; (3.79 ± 0.73),(4.41 ± 0.93) mmol/L vs.(2.68 ± 0.54) mmol/L],and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).But the difference between PVD group and DM group had no statistical significance (P ＞ 0.05).Hcy and CRP in DM group and PVD group were higher than those in control group [(10.26 ± 3.62),(19.83 ± 5.54) μ mol/L vs.(8.92 ± 2.41)μ mol/L; (4.12 ±0.57),(5.47 ±0.85) mg/L vs.(2.73 ±0.54) mg/L],ABI was lower than that in control group(0.92 ± 0.18,0.81 ± 0.16 vs.1.02 ± 0.23),and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05);Hcy,CRP in PVD group were obviously higher than those in DM group,ABI was lower than that in DM group,and the differences were statistically significant (P＜ 0.05).Spearman analysis showed that Hcy was negatively correlated with ABI (r =-0.635,P ＜ 0.05),CRP was negatively correlated with ABI (r =-0.529,P ＜ 0.05),and Hcy was positively correlated with CRP (r =0.528,P ＜ 0.05).The partial correlation analysis results showed that Hcy and ABI still showed a negative correlation (r =-0.315,P ＜ 0.05),CRP and ABI still showed a negative correlation (r =-0.243,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Hcy and CRP participating in the occurrence and development of type 2 diabetes PVD,can be used as a predictor of type 2 diabetes PVD.

BACKGROUND:Alpha-calcium sulfate hemiydrate/biphasic bioceramics (α-CSH/BCP) as a bone repair material has been widely used in the clinic, but there are stil some deficiencies. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of α-CSH/BCP on the repair of bone defects of the radius in rabbits. METHODS:The unilateral radius of 18 adult New Zealand white rabbits was selected to establish bone defect models, and then these rabbit models were randomized into three groups that were treated with α-CSH,α-CSH/BCP, BCP materials, respectively. At 4, 8, 12 weeks after implantation, bone samples were taken for gross and X-ray observations. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Gross observation: At 12 weeks of implantation, the bone defect was completely repaired in the α-CSH/BCP group, and the defected radius recovered basicaly; in the α-CSH group, bone defects were visible; and in the BCP group, there was stil some material for filing and coverage. (2) X-ray observation: In the α-CSH group, the degradation of implanted materials was faster than new bone formation, and bone defects were visible; in the α-CSH/BCP group, bone defects were healed, cortical bone remodeling was good, and the bone marrow cavity was re-canalized; in the BCP group, the implanted materials were stil visible, and bone defects were not repaired. These findings indicate that the α-CSH/BCP bone repair material can significantly promote the repair of bone defects of rabbit radius, with a better repair effect than α-CSH or BCP alone.

0.05;AGC R 1 to R 2 P 0.05.The invasive depth of the lesion corresponded to the degree of lymph node metastases.No relation was found between tumor size and the survival rate.The prognosis of type Ⅲ EGC and AGC with infiltration was poor.Conclusions: Biological behavior of gastric cancer can be used as a guide to operation type.We proposed that EGC should undergo subtotal gastrectomy plus R 1 or selective R 2 ,and AGC should undergo subtotal gastrectomy or near total gastrectomy plus R 2 or selective R 3 ,with a margin of at least 5 cm from the tumor.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the efficacy and safety of escitalopram versus paroxetine in treatment of se-nile patients with depression in China,and provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from CJFD,VIP,Wanfang database,CBM database,randomized controlled trials(RCT)of escitalopram(test group)versus paroxetine (control group) in the treatment of senile patients with depression in China were collected. After quality evaluation and data ex-tract,Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 4.2 statistics software. RESULTS:A total of 14 RCT were included,involv-ing 1 148 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed there was no significant difference in the cure rate[OR=1.20,95%CI(0.93, 1.53),P=0.16],significant effective rate[OR=1.23,95%CI(0.94,1.61),P=0.12],the incidences of headache[OR=0.81,95%CI (0.40,1.65),P>0.05],the incidences of tachycardia [OR=0.37,95%CI(0.09,1.52),P>0.05],the incidences of insomnia [OR=1.26,95%CI(0.33,4.82),P>0.05] and the incidences of tremor [OR=0.31,95%CI(0.04,2.24),P>0.05] between test group and control group;the incidences of xerostomia[OR=0.50,95%CI(0.31,0.80),P<0.05],the incidences of nausea[OR=0.49,95%CI (0.36,0.66),P<0.05],the incidences of sweating [OR=0.31,95%CI(0.15,0.62),P<0.05],the incidences of constipation[OR=0.31,95%CI(0.15,0.64),P<0.05],the incidences of dizziness[OR=0.38,95%CI(0.20,0.72),P<0.05] and the incidences of an-orexia[OR=0.45,95%CI(0.21,0.99),P<0.05] in test group were significantly lower than control group,there were significant dif-ferences in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:The efficacy of escitalopram and paroxetine is similar in the treatment of senile patients with depression,however,the safety of escitalopram is better than paroxetine. Due to the limit of methodological quality and sam-ple size,it remains to be further verified with more rigorously designed and long-term follow-up of large-scale RCT.

Objective To detect the expression level of Ang-1, Ang -2 and Tie-2 receptor mRNAs in the hemangioma tissuses and to explore the effects of Ang-1, Ang-2, and Tie-2 receptor on the angio-genesis in the hemangioma. Methods By use of semiquantinative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, we detected the expression level of Ang-1 mRNA, Ang-2 mRNA and Tie-2 mRNA in 30 cases of hemangioma (17 specimens of proliferating hemangioma, and 13 involuting hemangioma )together with 10 cases of normal skin as control, and the expression level of Ki-67 protein was also detected by an im-munohistochemica method. Results The expression of Ang-2 mRNA and Tie-2 mRNA in the prolifera-ting hemangiomas was higher than that in involuting hemangiomas (P<0.01) . The expression of Ang-1 mRNA in hemangiomas was negative. Conclusion The unbalance of Ang-Tie-2 system is probably impor-tant for the pathogenesis and development in hemangiomas.

Objective To observe the incidence and the rate of embolism in patients undergoing hysteroscopy procedures by using the transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), as well as the changes of respiratoric and haemodynamic variables. Methods Fourty ASA Ⅰ~Ⅱ patients undergoing hysteroscopy procedures under general anesthesia received intraoperative TEE monitoring. The systolic pulmonary artery pressure, the incidence of the venous gas embolism (VGE) and the eegmental wall motion abnormality (SWMAs) were observed. Results In the 40 patients, 38 patients received intravenous anesthesia hysteroscopic surgery, with the intraoperative TEE to monitor the intracardiac VGE. The degree of gas embolism was related with the perfusion and the usage of monopolar or bipolar diathermia (P<0.05). The systolic pulmonary artery pressure promoted and SWMAs were also observed. Conclusions The continue TEE monitor during hysteroscopy could detect the intracardiac gas embolism in time , contributing to early diagnosis and avoiding the occurrence of malignant arrhythmias or myocardial ischemic events.

Trehalose is a naturally occurring non-reducing disaccharide. This sugar has been known as a protector of biomembrane and macromolecules. And it has been widely used in foods, medicines, cosmetics. Trehalose synthase (TreS) is an intramolecular transglycosylase. It can catalyze the conversion of maltose into trehalose in one step. As the simple protocol and cheap substrate, it is very prospect in the industrial production. Here we have discussed the properties, catalytic mechanism and gene-engineering of TreS, and also proposed some solutions to its present research problems.
