Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2017;23(3):270-273
As an important way to maintain the internal environment of the human body, the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays an important role in the diabetic cognitive dysfunction, which may associate with insulin resistance, inflammatory reaction, oxidative stress and other mechanisms. Traditional Chinese Medicine can improve cognitive function of diabetes, in which RAS may play a role.
5.Insulin and Insulin Resistance in Diabetes with Cognitive Dysfunction (review)
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2012;18(5):433-435
Learning and memory dysfunction caused by diabetes is gaining an increased attention. Diabetes can significantly increasethe risk of dementia, including vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease; and diabetes itself can lead to mild or moderate cognition decline.Many clinical and experimental datas indicated that deficiency of insulin or insulin resistance can significantly reduce the threshold of cognitivedysfunction and accelerate the progress of cognitive decline. This paper reviewed the effect of insulin and insulin resistance on cognitivefunction in diabetes.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of color M-mode Doppler echocardiography (CMM) in assessing left ventricular(LV) diastolic function after mitral valve replacement(MVR). Methods Fifty-two patients who had received the implantation for more than three months were examined by echoeardiography (MVR group). Thirty age and sex-adjusted normal volunteers served as control group. Dimensions of left atrium and ventricle,ejection fraction(EF) and mitral inflow velocity(E) were measured by two-dimensional and Doppler eehocardiography. Color M-mode Doppler flow propagation velocity(Vp) and TDl-derived diastolic mitral annular velocity(Em) were measured from the apical four-chamber and two-chamber views. Then two new indexes based on the ratio of E to Vp(E/Vp) and E to Era' (E/Em') were while E/Vp and E/Era' increased, there were significant differences(P <0.01). The correlation coefficient and atrial fibrillation(P <20.01) ,however E/Vp was lower affected hy EF or atrial fibrillation(P >0.05). dysfunction were 2.00. Conclusions CMM is an effective technique to assess LV diastolic function after MVR. E/Vp has good consistency with E/Era and may be a potential useful parameter for assessing LV diastolic function.

OBJECTIVE:
To build up a simple and effective comprehensive system for predicting difficult laryngeal exposure under suspension laryngoscopy.
METHOD:
One hundred and twenty cases of laryngeal tubor were selected. Using Logistic regression method to analyse relative factors, including weight, height, BMI, neck girth, neck upward degree, upper-lower incisor teeth distance, thyroid-mentum distance, thyroid-sternum distance, Mallampati test, Yamamoto test and Upper lip bite test. Build data-base to construct a comprehensive system for predicting difficult laryngeal exposure under suspension laryngoscopy.
RESULT:
The relative factors of difficult laryngeal exposure were BMI, neck girth, upper-lower incisor teeth distance, neck upward degree, thyroid-mentum distance, Mallampati test and Yamamoto test (P < 0.05). To build up a comprehensive system for predicting difficult laryngeal exposure under suspension laryngoscopy. The predicting standards included the seven relative factors, each factor has 1 score, 2 score, 3 score. Higher score means more risk. Eight score was designed as minimum, under the premise,the sensibility, misdiagnosis rate, missed misdiagnosis rate, specificity of the experiment were 95.5%, 5.3%, 4.5%, 94.7%.
CONCLUSION
The comprehesive system is an effective method for predicting difficult intubation. It can help to identify difficult cases according to the results of this predicting system.
