Objective We aimed to describe the application value of continuous glucose monitoring system in patients with advanced gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods Pregant women in the medium and late pregant phases (24~35 weeks) underwent GDM screen test from January 2006 to April 2007. They first received 50 g glucose challenge test and 100g OGTT was performed 3 days later when the blood glucose was higher than or equal to 7.8mmol/L. According to the diagnostic criteria from American Diabetes Mellitus (ADA) 47 women were diagnosed to possess GDM and they were further divided into the test group (25 cases) and the control group (22 cases). The test group received 72 hours continuous glucose monitoring (CGMS). The control group adopted peripheral blood glucose monitoring using blood from the fingertip, 7 times per day. Results There were no records of consciousness hypoglycemic symptoms and hypoglycemia during monitoring. The CGMS data suggested that the record of the percent of high blood glucose was (17.5±3.1)%, percent of low blood glucose was (2.4±0.9)%, which were higher than those of the control group, which were (14.3±2.2)% and 0. Conclusions We recommend pregant women with GDM to undergo CGMS while using peripheral blood glucose monitoring with blood from the fingertip. It could systemicly evaluate the real control condition of blood glucose and ensure the safety of both mothers and babies.

Objective: To explore the anti-proliferation and apoptosis-inducing effects of decitabine combined with paclitaxel on paclitaxel-resistant MCF-7 cells. Methods:Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assays were used to determine the proliferation inhibition of drugs at different concentrations in 24, 48 and 72h. The group was treated with decitabine, paclitaxel and the combination of the two drugs, respectively. The cell apoptosis rate was determined by flow cytometry after the treatment with the drugs at different concentra-tions in 48h. Results:The results of CCK-8 showed the combination group significantly inhibited the cell proliferation when compared with the single drug use group(P<0. 05), and the anti-proliferation value was in a dose-dependent manner in all groups. The apopto-sis values after the treatment with decitabine, paclitaxel and the combination in 48h was(20. 4 ± 1. 98)%,(21. 8 ± 3. 34)% and(70. 8 ± 8. 23)%,respectively. Conclusion:The proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induction are both increased significantly in the com-bination group. Synergistic effect of decitabine and paclitaxel is found in multidrug resistant breast cancer cell line MCF-7 in vitro.
