Objective In order to explore the effective dosage of insulin and its correlated elements in sulphonylureas failure in type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods 61 cases of type 2 diabetics were separated into two groups,one group (group 1) is the first time using insulin and the other group (group 2) is in the use of insulin in the past.Results The effective insulin dosage of group 2 is significantly higher than that of group 1 (36.2?10.6 IU/d vs 30.1?10.5IU/d, P

Endoscopic ultrasonography has been widely used in the diagnosis of digestive system disease,and has great important diagnostic significance in the differential diagnosis of the upper gastrointestinal mucosa or submucosal lesions,as well as to distinguish the gastrointestinal intracavitary and extracavitary lesions.At the same time,EUS can more accurately judge the depth of tumor invasion and the surrounding lymph node metastasis,which has great value in the preoperative TNM staging of esophageal cancer and gastriccancer,the judgment of resectability and the prognosis.We summarized the result of EUS in the upper gastrointestinal disease in our hospital.

Objective To analyze psychological stress level and features of recruits in training camp.Methods Psychological stress self-evaluation test (PSET) was applied to 1 600 recruits in training camp.Results ①There were 64 recruits(64/1600,4％) who had high level of psychological stress(T score ≥70).②The psychological stress symptoms of recruits in training camp mainly manifested as increased alertness (87.7％),sleep deprivation (57.6％),mental and physical fatigue (48.7％) and nervous irritability (45.2％).③Psychological stress levels of recruits with different ages and different levels of self-feeling in camp had significant differences(P＜0.05).Conclusion Recruits in training camp have partly excessive psychological stress responses,targeted emergency decompression trainings should be carried out in recruits.

Objective To study military medical graduates' psychological elastic characteris-tics and the key influencing factors. Methods A comparative study of 817 graduate students and 597 undergraduate students in a military academy was conducted by using positive negative emotions, pos-itive and negative cognitive bias and Mental Resilience Scale. Independent sample t-test, single factor analysis of variance, correlation analysis, and step-wise regression analysis were conducted by SPSS 18.0 for data analysis. Results ①Resilience scores of postgraduate students were significantly lower than those of undergraduate students (76.01 ±11.43 vs. 80.00 ±10.26, t=-6.76, P<0.01). Resilience scores of military postgraduates were significantly higher than those of local postgraduates (77.18 ± 11.59 vs. 74.97±11.19, t=2.77, P<0.05). Resilience scores of female postgraduates were significantly lower than those of males (74.79 ±10.83 vs. 76.94 ±11.78, t=2.68, P<0.05), reflected in factors of tenacity and strength. ②Resilience and its factors were positively related to positive affect and atten-tion to positive information (r=0.448~0.625, P<0.01), while negatively related to negative affect and attention to negative information (r=-0.206~-0.448, P<0.01). ③Regression analysis showed that posi-tive and negative emotion, attention to positive and negative information can significantly predict re-silience, accounting for the variance of 53.7%. ④Positive and negative affect partially mediated the relationship between attention to positive information and positive affect and resilience. Conclusion Attention to positive information and positive affect may be potential targets for intervention to enhance the level of resilience among military medical postgraduate students.

Objective To investigate the factors which may affect the secretions of human leptin and free fatty acids (FFA) by measuring plasma glucose, serum insulin, leptin and FFA levels during reduced sample number intravenous glucose tolerance tests (IVGTT) in the subjects with different status of insulin resistance and ? cell function. Methods According to oral glucose tolerance test, 7 normal, 10 overweight/obese individuals, 12 subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and 11 with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) were recruited. During IVGTT, serum insulin, leptin and FFA levels at 12 time points were simultaneously measured. Results Compared to the stable secretion of leptin, during 180 min in the IVGTT, the FFA secretion showed a "U" shape profile. The correlation analysis showed that the average serum leptin and FFA levels in 3 h were independent to fasting plasma glucose concentration. The partial correlation coefficient of leptin and insulin decreased after being adjusted for FFA (before r=0.77, P0.05). Conclusion The changes of serum FFA levels in IVGTT are more significant than those of leptin after glucose loading. Fasting plasma glucose levels do not significantly affect the average serum levels of leptin and FFA. On the contrary, insulin manifests such action but does not affect the secretion profile of these parameters.

A patient with severe hypoglycemia due to insulin-like growth factor ( IGF)-IIsecreted by a giant solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura ( SFTP) was investigated through comprehensively reviewing his medical history and clinical records. The patient had severe hypoglycemia accompanied with significantly decreased serum insulin level. A solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura was found, and right pneumonectomy removed this giant tumor. Two years after the operation, the patient was fit and well with no further hypoglycemia episodes. Non-islet-cell tumor hypoglycemia should be considered in patients who have hypoglycemia episodes accompanied with significantly decreased serum insulin level.

Objective To explore the relationships among posttraumatic growth (PTG),social support,and coping style in women with infertility.Methods 182 women with infertility were recruited in one public hospital department of assisted reproduction technology.Measures included Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI),Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS),and Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCQ).Results ① The PTG score of women with infertility was 42.55 ± 16.83,lower than the average level.② Compared with the lower PTG group,the higher PTG group scored significantly higher in social support,positive coping,and negative coping (t =3.867,P＜ 0.01 ; t =8.452,P＜ 0.01 ; t =2.817,P＜ 0.01).③ There were significantly positive correlations among PTG,social support and positive coping (r =0.295-0.515,P ＜ 0.01).④ Positive coping served as a total mediator in the relationship between social support and PTG.Conclusion There are closely correlations among PTG,social support,and positive coping style.Positive coping style significantly mediate the relationship between social support and PTG.

Objective To explore the serum levels of progestrone (Prog) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate(DHEAS),and the effect of sodium valproate(VPA) and lamotrigine(LTG) on the levels of Prog and DHEAS in infantile spasms.Methods A total of 36 cases of infantile spasms (spasms group) before treatment and 40 cases health infants(control group) were detected the serum Prog and DHEAS levels by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay,and were compared with 21 cases receiving monotherapy with VPA(VPA group),and 13 cases receiving therapy plus lamotrigine(LTG group) before and 4 months after treatment to observe the changes of sex hormone.Results There were no significant differences in Prog and log(DHEAS) (logarithmic transformation) levels between spasms group and control group (P ＞0.05).The serum Prog level of baby girls and baby boys were lower after treatment than those before treatment in VPA group respectively (t =2.603,3.146 ; P =0.003,0.008,respectively).The log (DHEAS) level of baby girls and baby boys were higher in LTG group after treatment than those before treatment respectively(t =3.185,2.663 ;P =0.007,0.041).Conclusion Infantile spasms would not influence the hormone metabolism,while VPA and LTG can influence the sex hormone.The hormone level should be monitored in the treatment.

0.05). The generation of ROS increased obviously after the cells were incubated with them for 12 h, and the increase of ROS reached the peak treated for 24 h. The levels of ?? m were time-dependently decreased after treating with four compounds for 12, 24, and 48 h. Conclusion The grouth of both MDR KBv200 cells and parental drug-sensitive KB cells were inhibited to the treatment of four anthraquinone derivative in vitro. The mechanism of their effects is associated with the increase of the cellular ROS level and the decrease of ?? m.
