Objective To analyze the etiology of diabetes ketoacidosis(DKA) in children with type 1 diabetes.Methods Totally 850 person-time of type 1 diabetes children in recent 20 years in our hospital were selected as studied subjects. Two hundred and twenty-five person-time of them were hospitalized because of DKA.Fifty-six cases (131 person-time) were due to recurrent DKA.These patients were classified into 2 groups according to onset time: group 1(diagnosed from 1982 to 1991) and group 2(diagnosed from 1992 to 2001).Results The analysis of recurrent DKA suggested that 71.8 % of them was due to infection, 20.4 % of them did not obey diabetic diet and 9.2 % of them discontinued insulin injection. The etiology of DKA showed no difference in two groups. The number of recurrent DKA in two groups was significantly different (P

BACKGROUND:To ensure the catheter position is very important for interventional catheters. In emergency, rapid and accurate catheter insertion is required. Ultrasound can real-time track the movement of catheters in vivo. It is safe to patient, which has exhibited a bright future in catheter placement. OBJECTIVE: To compare the current methods for improving ultrasonic localization methods and to prospect the future development and improvement of real-time ultrasonic localization of catheters in vivo. METHODS: Literature search was carried out based on PubMed (1990-01/2015-04) and Espacenet with the key words of catheter, ultrasonic guidance, ultrasound localization, enhanced localization for the initial retrieval of relevant articles. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:To improve the image quality and increase the accuracy of catheter placement by ultrasound, recent efforts have been focused on two paths. One is to improve the resolution of ultrasonic images by enhancing ultrasound equipment or ultrasonic guidance system. The other is to modify catheter itself to obtain high acoustic impedance differential and improve its echogenicity. The latter approach can be potentialy applied in al kinds of catheters and is more economical and practical. Therefore, in future researches, innovation and design of catheter materials for catheter fabricating wil play an important role in promoting the real-time ultrasonic localization of catheters.

Objective To compare clinical effect and safety of left-double-lumen tube and bron-chial blocker in vedio-assisted atrial fibrillation ablation.Methods Forty-eight patients,26 males and 22 females,aged 45-65 years,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,who underwent vedio-assisted atrial fi-brillation ablation were randomly divided into double-lumen tube (group A)and bronchial blocker (group B),with 24 patients in each group.The tube type of group A was left-double-lumen tube. Bronchofiberscope was used for location in every patient.The mean artery pressure (MAP)and heart rate (HR)before intubation,intubation positioning time,peak airway pressure (Ppeak)after 5 min of one-lung ventilation,lung collapse,incidences of hoarseness,pharyngalgia and choke were ob-served.Results Intubation positioning time between two groups was not statistically significant. MAP and HR were significantly increased at intubation positioning time in both groups,to be specif-ic,they were significantly in group A than in group B (P <0.05 ).When left lungs blocked,Ppeak and qualities of lung collapse were not statistically different between the two groups.When right lungs blocked,group A was higher than that in group B (P < 0.05 ).Cough,hoarseness and sore throat were more frequently seen in group A than in group B.Conclusion Both double-lumen tube and bron-chial blocker can be used in video-assisted atrial fibrillation ablation with satisfying effects.As for the quality of lung isolation,double-lumen tube was better than bronchial blocker.However,compared with bronchial blocker,double-lumen tube results in more unstable hemodynamics and higher occur-rence of hoarseness,pharyngalgia and choke.

Objective To investigate the effects of berberine on cholesterol efflux in THP-1 macrophage derived foam cells, and explore the possible mechanism. Methods HP-1 cells were induced into macrophages by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), and were treated with acetylated low-density lipoprotein (Ac-LDL) to establish the THP-1 macrophage derived foam cell models. Foam cells were divided into blank control group and berberine (5 to 20 μmol/L) treatment groups according to the way of treatment and berberine concentrations. After treatment for 24 h, flow cytometry was employed to detect AcLDL aggregation, enzymic method was adopted to detect contents of cholesterol and triglyceride, scintillation counting technique was used to detect cholesterol efflux, and effects of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ) antagonist GW9662 pretreatment on cholesterol efflux (pioglitazone as positive control) were analysed. Besides, RT-PCR was applied to detect expression of liver X receptor α (LXRα) and ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) mRNA. ResultsCompared with blank control group, AcLDL aggregation and contents of cholesterol and triglyceride of foam cells in various berberine treatment groups decreased significantly (P＜0.01), while cholesterol efflux increased (P＜0.01) in a dose-dependent manner. After GW9662 pretreatment, there was no significant difference in cholesterol efflux between various berberine treatment groups and control group (P>0.05). Furthermore, expression of LXRα and ABCA1 mRNA of foam cells in various berberine treatment groups was higher than that in blank control group. Conclusion Berberine may increase cholesterol efflux in THP-1 macrophage derived foam cells, the mechanism of which may be associated with activation of PPARγ pathway and increase of expression of LXRα and ABCA1 mRNA.

Objective: To investigate chronic kidney disease (CKD) and its risk factors in people receiving physical examination. Methods: hTis retrospective study included people over 20 years old who had physical examination in the Health Management Center of Third Xiangya Hospital from Janurary 2008 to June 2011. CKD and its risk factors as well as questionnaire were recorded. hTe risk factors were analyzed by multivariate logistic analysis. CKD was deifned by kidney damage (microalbuminuria≥30 mg/L) and/or hematuria and/or reduced kidney function [evaluate glomerular ifltration rate (eGFR)<60mL/(min.1.73 m2)]. We counted eGFR according to the modiifcation of diet in renal disease (MDRD). Results: A total of 5 708 physical examination reports were included. The detection rate of albuminuria, reduced renal function and hematuria was 25.0%, 1.7% and 1.1%. hTe detection rate of CKD was 25.6%, and detection rate of CKD stage 1-5 was 17.8%, 6.7%, 1.1%, 0 and 0, respectively. Multivariate logistic analysis indicated that diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, male, age, and smoking were the risk factors for CKD. Increasing physical activity was the protective factor against CKD. Conclusion: High prevalence of CKD in people receiving physical examination is found in Changsha, especially stage 1 and 2 CKD. Physical examination is important to screen CKD. Stopping smoking, control of blood glucose, blood pressure, blood lipids and increasing physical activity may help reduce the prevalence of CKD.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective effect of total alkaloids of Rhizoma Corydalis (TARC) on experimental gastric mucosal lesions in rats. METHODS Gastric mucosal lesions were induced in rats by injecting acetic acid under gastric mucosal. From the 2nd day post the preparation of the rat model, cimetidine 400 mg · kg-1 or TARC 20, 40 and 80 mg · kg-1 was ig delivered for 15 d in different groups. Two days after the last delivery, gastric juice volume and total acidity were measured. Histopathology of stomach tissues was observed by HE staining. The area of gastric ulcer area was measured and the ulcer index and ulcer inhibitory rate were calculated. The expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and EGF receptor (EGFR) was detected by immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS Comparing with shame group, the eare of gastric ulcer and ulcer index were increased signifi?cantly in the model group(P<0.01), suggesting that the model rats were prepared properly. Compared with the model group, the ulcer area in rats of cimetidine and TARC 80 mg·kg-1 groups was decreased by 39.9%and 23.7%,respectively. The ulcer index was decreased by 52.3%and 30.5%,respectively. There was no significant difference between the cimetidine group and TARC 80 mg · kg-1 group, in the ulcer area or index. Compared with model group, EGF protein expression of cimetidine and TARC 40 and 80 mg · kg-1 groups was increased by 81.8%,24.2%and 57.6%,respectively while EGFR protein expression was increased by 45.9%,16.2%and 29.7%,respectively(P<0.05,P<0.01). Deciduous and necrotic gastric mucosal and a large amount of inflmmatory cells infiltration were observed in model group, and gastric mucosal lesions were improved in cimetidine and TARC 40 and 80 mg · kg-1 groups. CONCLUSION TARC has protective effect on gastric mucosal lesions in rats. The mechanism may be related to the increase of EGF and EGFR protein expression.
