Objective To investigate the current situation of prediabetic self-efficacy of middle aged and elderly prediabetes and its influencing factors. Method Unified questionnaires were used to investigate the self-efficacy of 234 prediabetes and its influencing factors. Results The total scores of self-efficacy in the middle-aged and elder prediabetes were at moderate level. The score of the older patients was significantly higher than that of the middle aged (P<0.01). Multiple regression analysis showed that marital status and disease knowledge were main factors impacted their self-efficacy of the middle aged and family history of diabetes and the disease knowledge were the main factor affecting the self-efficacy of the elderly prediabetes. Conclusions The self-efficacy of middle-aged and elderly prediabetes is at middle level. Nurses need to enhance the knowledge of the prediabetic patients, attaching more attention to those not in marriage and those without history of diabetes so as to strengthen their self-efficacy.

Objective To explore the relationship between dipeptidyl peptidaseⅡ(DPPⅡ) and the pathogenesis of congenital cataract.Methods Eighty SCR rats with congenital cataract were randomly divided into four groups:8,10,12 and 14 weeks groups(n=20).Normal Wistar rats at each age were used as control groups.Immunohistochemical experiments using the streptavidin-biotin immunoper-oxidase method were used to observe the immunoreactivity changes of DPPⅡ in lens in SCR rats at different time(8,10,12,14 weeks).Results The immunoreactivities of DPPⅡ in the lens epithelial cells and fibres of cataractous lenses of all ages were higher than those in control groups.At the 12th and 14th week,immunoreactive staining of DPPⅡwas found to extend into the perinuclear region.Conclusion The immunoreactivity of DPPⅡ is enhanced in cataractous rat lenses.DPPⅡ may be participated in the proteolytic modification of lens proteins during cataractogenesis.

Objective:To study the preventive and therapeutic effects of silk fibroin peptides (SFP) on acute alcoholism in mice. Methods:In first experiment, the mice were randomly divided into four groups, and every group was treated by 56o alcohol (ethanol dosage 7.56 ml/kg bw) via i.g. Eighty mice were fed normal saline (NS) and different dosages of SFP (0.1, 0.5, 2.5 g/kg bw) 30 min later respectively, then the rate of ebriety and time of sobriety were determined. Another 72 mice were also divided into four groups and given NS and SFP similarly. The concentration of ethanol in serum was measured 1 h, 2 h and 4 h later respectively. In second experiment, the mice were also divided into four similar groups, but 56o alcohol was given at 6.16 ml/kg?bw via i.g. NS and SFP were given similarly, 0.5 h before alcohol. Two experiments were performed to observe the effect of SFP on prevention of temulence. Results:The time of sobriety and concentration of ethanol of SFP groups fed 0.5 and 2.5g/kg bw were lower significantly than those of NS group (P

Objective To evaluate the applicative value of ultrasound elastography in diagnosis of focal lesions in the parotid and submandibular glands.Methods 30 patients(30 lesions) were scanned by real-time ultrasound elastography and were analyzed in elastography evaluated criteria (5 score method).All the results were compared with the pathological types.Results The elastographic grades of most benign nodules were 1 - 3,while most of malignancy were 4 - 5.The elastographic grades of benign and malignant lesions were of significant difference statistically( P ＜0.01 ).If elastographic grade 4 or 5 were diagnosed as malignancies,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy for diagnosing malignant l(e)sions in the parotid and submandibular glands were 72.73 ％,84.21 ％,80.00 ％,respectively.Conclusions Ultrasound elastography is useful in the differential diagnosis of focal lesions in the parotid and submandibular glands.

Objective: Invasion and metastasis are the main causes of carcinoma mortality; hence, the timely blocking of the invasion and metastasis of carcinoma has become a research hotspot. The present study aims to investigate the expression levels of Tiam-1 mRNA and HPA-1 mRNA and their correlation with the invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods: From May 2009 to Jan 2012, 65 hepatocellular carcinoma patients admitted consecutively in our hospital for surgical treatment were included in this study. Real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to investigate the expression levels of Tiam-1 mRNA and HPA-1 mRNA in hepatocellular carcinoma, paired adjacent hepatocellular carcinoma (2 cm from the carcinoma), and surgical marginal normal hepato mucosa tissues (5 cm from the carcinoma). RT-PCR was also used to analyze their correlation with the clinicopathological characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma. Results: The expression level of HPA-1 mRNA was significantly higher in hepatocellular carcinoma (43.83±11.62) than in paired adjacent hepatocellular carcinoma (14.82±8.16) and normal hepato mucosa tissues (6.02±5.36) (P<0.001). The expression level of HPA-1 mRNA was higher in paired adjacent hepatocellular carcinoma than in normal hepato mucosa tissues (P<0.05). The expression of Tiam-1 mRNA was higher in hepatocellular carcinoma (35.28±11.81) than in paired adjacent hepatocellular carcinoma (12.94±6.25) and normal hepato mucosa tissues (4.17±3.49) (P<0.05). The expression level of Tiam-1 mRNA was higher in paired adjacent hepatocellular carcinoma than in normal hepato mucosa tissues (P<0.05). The expression levels of Tiam-1 mRNA and HPA-1 mRNA were closely associated with the degree of differentiation, depth of infiltration, lymph node metastasis, vessel metastasis, and TNM (Tumor, Node, Metastasis)staging of gastric carcinoma (P<0.05). Spearman rank correlation analysis demonstrated a significant correlation between Tiam-1 and HPA-1 (OR=0.523, P<0.05). Conclusion: The expression levels of Tiam-1 mRNA and HPA-1 mRNA were high in hepatocellular carcinoma. Meanwhile, the increased ex-pression levels of Tiam-1 and HPA-1 can promote the invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma. Moreover, the determination of Tiam-1 and HPA-1 may be valuable for the treatment and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To study the effects of different hypertonic saline (4.5%and 7.5%) in fluid resuscitation on hemodynamics in traumatic rabbits with hemorrhagic shock.Methods Thirty-two healthy rabbits ( male or female, 2.0-3.0 kg body weight) were divided into 4 groups randomly:SHAM group, SWT group ( shock without treatment) , 4.5%group (resuscitation with 4.5% hypertonic saline), and 7.5% group ( resuscitation with 7.5% hypertonic saline), 8 rabbits in each group.The rabbit model of uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock was established after anesthesia.The fluid used in the two methods of fluid resuscitation was infused into the rabbits at designed times.The hemodynamic data including the left intraventricular systolic pressure ( LVSP) and maximal change rate of left intraventricular pressure ( ±dp/dtmax) were determined at 0 min, 30 min, 60 min, and 90 min.Results (1) The rabbit models of uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock were generated successfully.At 30 min, data of SWT in the 4.5%and 7.5%groups had no significant difference through pairwise comparison (P>0.05).(2) The hemodynamic parameters changed similarly during the experiment.At 60 min, the values of the 7.5%group ( LVSP=115.00 ±8.37 mmHg, +dp/dtmax=4.29 ±0.50 mmHg/ms, -dp/dtmax=-3.25 ±0.25 mmHg/ms) were significantly higher than those in the 4.5%group ( ( LVSP=104.14 ±7.73 mmHg, +dp/dtmax=3.35 ±0.39 mmHg/ms, -dp/dtmax=-2.27 ±0.12 mmHg/ms) (P<0.05).At 90 min, the data of the 7.5%group were higher, but statistically not significantly different ( P>0.05 ) .Conclusions Fluid resuscitation can improve the hemodynamic function in traumatic rabbits with uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock.Comparing with the 4.5%hypertonic saline, 7.5% hypertonic saline can improve the hemodynamic function more apparently.Our results may provide an experimental support for the treatment of clinical patients with uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock.
