Objective To analyze the plasma free fatty acid (FFA) composition in patients with T2DM. Methods All subjects were from Zhongnan hospital of Wuhan university, and they were divided into three groups: normal control ( n = 94 ), T2DM ( n = 101 ) and T2DM with hyperlipidemia ( n = 77 ). Fasting blood samples were taken from the participants, and plasma FFA were separated using a modified Doles method with the bromoacetophenone, pre-column-derivative. The quantitation of FFA was performed on were (355.63 ± 100. 35) μmol/L, (421.21 ± 200. 83 ) μ mol/L, ( 473.04 ± 213.40 ) μmol/L in healthy controls, T2DM group and T2DM with hyperlipidemia group, respectively. The significant differences were observed among the 3 groups(x2 = 13.08, P <0.01 ). However, there was no significant difference of UFA concentrations among the 3 groups [(206.29± 61.94) μ mol/L, (218.11 ± 110.28) μmol/L and ( 240.94 ± 116.79 ) μmol/L, x2 = 2.17, P > 0.05]. Compared to normal control [( 355.63 ± 100.35 )μmol/L], the FFA concentration[(421.21 ±200.83) μmol/L] in T2DM has significantly increased (x2 =FFA concentrations were higher in T2DM with hyperlipidemia [(473.04 ±213.40) μmol/L] (x2 =27.93,P <0.01 ). The RSD values for intra- and inter-day precision were less than 5%, and the minimal detection limits ranged from 0.05 μmol/L to 0.35 μmol/L The recoveries of high, intermediate and low-level materials were 96.4% -104.8%. Conclusions The total FFA concentration in T2DM has increased, most of which are saturated FFA. The unsaturated FFA has not significantly increased. They seem to be related to the development of T2DM, and might be a new biomarker for clinical monitoring of metabolic disorder of T2DM.

Objective 　To study the clinical and electrophysiological features in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A with gene duplication.Methods　Clinical symptoms and signs were summarized in 22 patients from 21 unrelated families. Electromyography (EMG) as well as motor conduction velocities (MCV) and sensory conduction velocities (SCV) examinations were performed in all patients. Results　Evidence of CMT was initially detected within the second decade in 18 patients. Nearly half of patients were sporadic cases. The typical clinical manifestations of CMT1A were weakness and atrophy in the distal limbs, weakness or absence of the tendon reflexes, talipes equinovarus and postural tremor the upper limb. Additionally, some special symptoms and signs were also observed occasionally, including brisk tendon reflexes, extensor plantar responses, scoliosis, foot ulcers and nystagmus. EMG revealed that 77.3% of the patients had fibrillation and positive sharp potentials. 81.8% of them had prolonged motor unit potential limit. Median MCV showed there was no significant difference between CMT1A patients and CMT1 patients without duplication (t=1.63, P＞0.05). Values of SCV and MCV for the lower limbs were not obtained in 20 patients and more than 2/3 of the patients respectively. Conclusions　The clinical features of CMT1A included high frequent of sporadic cases, early onset in the second decade and various manifestations. The electrophysiological features were that the damages of nerves for the lower limbs were more severer than those in the upper limbs and the damages of the sensory nerves were more severer than those of the motor nerves. The phenotype was variable although the genotype was the same in CMT1A patients with PMP22 duplication.

Objective To study clinicopathological characteristics of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal carcinoma(HNPCC)-associated endometrial carcinoma(EC).Methods Totally 421 EC patients admitted to General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from 1981 to 2006 were divided into three groups:group A:sporadic EC;group B:familial aggregation of EC;group C:HNPCC-associated EC.Results HNPCC-associated EC accounted for 6.4%(27/421).Mean age at time of diagnosis was 49.7years in group C,earlier than 56.3 years in group A(P=0.004)and 55.2 years in group B(P=0.035).There were 33.3%(9/27)patients with multiple primary carcinomas in group C.It was higher than 14.3%(9/63)in group B and 5.1%(17/331)in group A respectively(P=0.038,P＜0.01).There was no difference among the three groups in histological type or menopausal status(P＞0.05).The numbers of patients with low grade EC in group C(70.4%,19/27)and group B(61.3%,38/62)were more than that in Group A(P=0.013,P=0.023).Prognosis for group C was better than that in group A(P=0.021),and 5-and 10-year survival rate in groups A,B and C was 80%,70%;88%,85%;and 96%,96%respectively.Conclusions Mean age at time of diagnosis is earlier in HNPCC-associated EC than that in sporadic EC;patients with HNPCC-associated EC are more frequently complicated with multiple primary carcinomas and of low grade;prognosis is better.

OBJECTIVE:To study the protctive effect of ginkgo biloba extractEGBon the kindey in the case of is?chemia-reperfusion injury.METHODS:The model of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in male rats was made by ligation of left renal artery for40min and3h of reperfusion.The rats with pretreatment were fed with EGB at different doses prior to operation.The content of malonadialdihydeMDA,the activity of superoxide dismutaseSODin renal cortex and the levels of blood urea nitrogenBUN,creatinineCrin plasma were measured.The pathological changes of renal tissues were observed by electron microscope.RESULTS:After ischemia-reperfusion,the activity of SOD in renal cortex was decreased,however,the content of MDA in renal cortex and the levels of BUN,Cr in plasma were increased.Pathological changes induced by ischemia-reperfusion in renal tissues were observed clearly.The pretreatment of rats with EGB significantly prevented reduction of SOD activity and increase of MDA content in renal cortex,decreased elevation of concentration of BUN and Cr in plas?ma.Pathological changes of proximal tubular cells in rat kidneys induced by ischemia-reperfusion were also prevented by the pretreatment with EGB.CONCLUSION:EGB can protect rats from renal injuries caused by ischemia-reperfusion.The mechanism of protective effects of EGB may be related to preserving the activity of SOD and alleviating lipid peroxidation.

OBJECTIVE To study the isolation,distributive characteristics and drug resistance of AmpC enzyme producing Gram-negative bacilli in nosocomial infection of two years and provide the evidence for treatment. METHODS A total of 528 strains of Gram-negative bacilli collected from daily specimens were identified with Bio-Fosun-Ⅰ,and AmpC enzyme was screened by cefoxitin disk and then corroborated by EDTA disk method. All data were analyzed statistically. RESULTS Among 528 strains collected,136 (25.75%) were AmpC enzyme producing strains,the respective percentage of Pseudomonas aerugionsa,Echerichia coli,Enterobacter cloacae,Klebsiella pneumoniae and Citrobacter was 32.35%,28.67%,18.38%,8.09% and 5.15%,respectively. Most strains (38.9%) were detected in ICU. The common infection sites were lungs. The resistance rate of AmpC enzyme producing strains to the first,second and third-generations cephalosporins was 71.3-99.5%. The susceptive rate of AmpC enzyme producing strains to imipenem,cefepine,amikacin and piperacillin/tazobactant were low. CONCLUSIONS For effective supervision and control of AmpC enzyme producing Gram-negative bacilli in nosocomial infection,detection of AmpC enzyme shoud be paid much attention by clinical microbiology laboratory.
