This study was aimed to discuss traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) factors of bone mineral density (BMD) in order to figure out the relation of BMD T-Score to the TCM syndrome of kidney-deficiency, qi-deficiency , and blood-stasis . It may provide the scientific basis for TCM treatment of osteoporosis . Patients were collected from August 2010 to April 2011 at the Longhua Hospital affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine . The assay of BMD was performed with the U . S . HOLOGIC dual-energy radia-tion . The BMD was measured and recorded in the form . All data were collected into the computer using Epi-Data3 . 02 software . Then , the data was analyzed by the SPSS15 . 0 statistical software . The results showed that through the Mann-Whitney U test , the BMD of patients with kidney-deficiency syndrome was worse compared to patients without kidney-deficiency syndrome ( P < 0 . 01 ); the BMD of patients with q i-deficiency syndrome was worse compared to patients without q i-deficiency syndrome ( P < 0 . 01 ); the BMD of patients with blood-stasis syndrome was worse compared to patients without blood-stasis syndrome ( P < 0 . 01 ) . It showed that the BMD of patients with kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis was worse compared to patients with-out syndrome of kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis . Under a variety of evidence-based BMD distribution , the chi-square test showed that there was significant difference ( P < 0 . 01 ) . It showed that differ-ent BMD had different TCM syndrome distributions . Among normal BMD cases , distributions of syndrome with-out kidney-deficiency, qi-deficiency and blood-stasis occupied the largest proportion. Among osteoporosis cas-es , the distribution of syndrome of kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis occupied the largest pro-portion . It was concluded that the syndrome of kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis maybe impor-tant factors to influence BMD . It may also be the risk factor of osteoporosis complication . The BMD are relat-ed to the syndrome of kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis and their combinations . Among bone mass reduction and osteoporosis cases , the proportion of combination of two or three types of syndromes was more than single one syndrome . It suggested that the combination of kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis had more influence on BMD .

Objective To observe the effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 on the expressions of transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1), fibronectin(FN),and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) in rats with diabetic nephropathy(DN), and to elucidate the protective mechanism played by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Methods DN models were estabolished by injecting streptozotoein ( STZ ) into male SD rats, which were divided into TGF-β1 overexpression group, TGF-β1 overexpression plus vitamin D3 group, TGF-β1 low-expression group, TGF-β1 low-expression plus vitamin D3 group, TGF-β1 normal-expression group, and TGF-β1 normal-expression plus vitamin D3 group. After 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 treatment for 37 days, renal function and blood biochemical parameters were evaluated. The morphology and fibrosis of kidney tissues were observed. The expressions of TGF-β1, FN, and VEGF in kidney cortex were measured by immunohistochemistry, realtime PCR, and Western blotting. Results The levels of cholesterol, triglyceride, creatinine,plasma glucose, HbA1C , and 24 h urinary protein were lower in vitamin D3treated groups than those in corresponding control groups(P<0. 05). The degree of renal fibrosis was raised with the increased level of TGF-β1. Vitamin D3 treatment decreased the fibrosis in diabetic kidney. There were significant differences in the mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β1 in three control groups(P<0. 05). With the increased levels of TGF-β1, the expressions of FN and VEGF were increased. The expressions of TGF-β1, FN, and VEGF were lowered by vitamin D3compared with the corresponding control groups(P<0. 05). Conclusion 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 may protect the renal tissure in diabetic rats via inhibiting the expressions of TGF-β1, FN, and VEGF in the kidney.
