ADVANCE trial demonstrated that stable intensive glucose control could improve prognosis and the target HbA1c should be 6.5%.While ACCORD and VADT trials suggested aggressive glucose lowering in diabetics at high cardiovascular risk is potentially harmful,tight glucose control yields no significant effect on long duration,poorly controlled patients with complications.DCCT and UKPDS research confirmed benefits of early intensive glucose control could persist due to legacy effect.Steno-2 research showed patients benefit greatly from comprehensive control of risk factors.In sum,early intensive control of risk factors and individualized treatment in diabetics are mainstream therapy.

Objective To observe the effect of neuromuscular electric stimulation (NMES) on post-stroke dysphagia (PSD). Methods Two hundred patients with swallowing dysfunction after stroke were randomly divided into a control group with 67 cases and a study group with 133 cases. All patients received pharmacotherapy and swal-lowing training. The study group also received NMES. The study group was sub-divided into unilateral and bilateral cortical stroke sub-groups, an ischemic stroke sub-group and a hemorrhagic stroke sub-group. The swallowing levels of the groups were compared after 2 courses of treatment with NMES. Results After an average of 20 days of NMES treatment, the level of dysphagia and its severity improved significantly. The patients with dysphagia due to unilateral stroke improved, on average, more than those with bilateral stroke. Patients with dysphagia due to ischemic stroke improved more than those with hemorrhagic stroke. Conclusions NMES therapy combined with rehabilitation train-ing can significantly improve swallowing in patients with PSD.

Objective To prepare icariin-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles (icariin nanoparticles) and analyze their physical and chemical properties,the release of icariin,and the effects on human osteoblast cells in vitro.Methods Icariin nanoparticles were prepared by ultrasonic emulsification and dialysis method and characterized by transmission electron microscopy and particle size analyzer.The release studies in vitro were adopted to evaluate the release-control features.Thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide (MTT),alkaline phophatase activity assay,and calcium nodes dyeing were carried out to investigate the effects of icariin nanoparticles on the growth and differentiation of human osteoblast cells MG-63.Results The icariin nanoparticles had spherical shapes and uniform particle size,and the mean size of the nanoparticles was (185.8±5.6) nm.The icariin nanoparticles showed the best property of sustained release and biocompatibility.Meanwhile,the icariin nanoparticles had no effect on the growth of MG-63 ceils,but they promote the differentiation of osteoblast cells by a concentration-and time-dependent manner.Conclusions The icariin nanoparticles prepared by ultrasonic emulsification and dialysis method have a good effect on the differentiation of human osteoblast cells in vitro and are biocompatible.

Objective To explore the difference of immunosuppresive effect between the expanded Stro-1+ and Stro-1-subgroups of human mesenchymal stem cells in vitro. Methods Mononuclear cells (MNCs) were isolated from bone marrow (BM) samples and seeded in a T-75 cm2 tissue culture flask contained with Dexter medium. When 50% confluence was obtained, adherent cells were collected and incubated with anti-stro-1 antibody, and the Stro-1+ and Stro-1-MSCs were further seeded for expansion. The total culture time (median) was 15 days. Cells were then analyzed by flow cytometry. One-way mix lymphocyte reaction (MLR) (1?105 responding cells and an equal number of stimulating cells/well were co-cultured in 96-well plates) and nonspecific mitogenic stimuli phytohemagglutinin (PHA) plus interleukin-2 (IL-2) induced lymphocytes proliferation (PBL 1?105/well were mixed with PHA 10?g/ml and IL-2 500U/ml in 96-well culture plates) were established in vitro. 1?103-3?104 irradiated Stro-1+ MSCs and Stro-1-MSCs were added into the two systems at the beginning of reaction. Immunosuppressive actions of both Stro-1+ or Stro-1-MSCs were compared. Results Adherent cells contained a median of 9% (range 5%-26%) Stro-1+ cells, which expressed higher immunophenotype of MSCs. In both reaction systems, suppressive actions occurred in a dose-dependent fashion when whatever Stro-1+ MSC or Stro-1-MSC were added. However, that the addition of 1?103 Stro-1-cells enhanced rather than inhibited the lymphocyte proliferation in one-way MLR. In the presence of various concentrations of MSCs, Stro-1+ MSCs always showed a significantly increased inhibitory effects in comparison to Stro-1-MSCs (P

35), while the expression level of TGF-?1 in Stro-1-MSC was significant higher than that detected in Stro-1+MSC (2-??Ct=0.39, P

As a stable marker to reflect the average level of blood glucose,HbA1c is very important in glycaemic control evaluation.However,more and more data from evidence based medicine demonstrated that blood glucose fluctuation can also contribute to diabetic complication and prognosis which can not be neglected.Multiple capillary glucose measurements and continuous glucose monitoring are major methods to detect glucose fluctuation.Apart from insulin,various oral anti-diabetic drugs can reduce postprandial glucose excursion.Representative drugs include ?-glycosidase inhibitors,glinides and short-acting sulfonylureas,each have their own way of acting.
