Objective To study whether the effects of bone mineral density by a kidney-tonifying herbal fufang treatment in senile osteoporosis mice (P6) is by the mechanism of improving the expression level of GH mRNA and IGF-1 mRNA. Methods The experimental points four groups as following:SAMR1 mice which feed saline lavage,SAMP6 divid as saline lavage group,subcutaneous injection of rhGH group and a kidney-tonifying herbal fufang treatment group. All intervention is one time everyday. After 3 months and 6 months intervention,we measure the BMD and the expression level of the GH mRNA and of IGF-1 mRNA. Results After 3 months intervention,the BMD of R1 group and the Kidney group were higher than the P6 blank group;but there is no difference in BMD between RhGH group and the P6 blank group. The effect of GH mRNA and IGF-1 mRNA expression levels:the R1 group,rhGH and kidney group were higher than the P6 blank group. After six months intervention,the BMD of the rhGH group and kidney group are higher than the P6 blank group. GH mRNA and IGF-1 mRNA expression levels:GH group and kidney group are higher than the P6 blank group. The expression level of GH mRNA and IGF-1 mRNA in four groups has positive correlation. After six months intervention ,we found the positive correlation between the expression level of GH mRNA and IGF-1 mRNA and each part of the whole body BMD. Conclusion A kidney-tonifying herbal fufang can improve the bone mineral density of P6,and its mechanism may be related to improve expression level of GH mRNA and IGF-1 mRNA.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the serum SRC-3 levels and the bone loss severity in postmenopausal women. Methods Fifty-eight PMW with osteopenia or osteoporosis and nineteen healthy PMW were enrolled in this study from June 2012 to September 2013. BMD at the lumbar spine and femoral neck were observed by DXA Lunar Prodigy Vision. The levels of serum SRC-3 were detected by ELISA. The diagnosis value was evaluated by the ROC curves analysis. Results The levels of serum SRC-3 were significant higher in the normal group than those in the osteopenia or the osteoporosis groups (P<0.001 for both), no statistical significance was found between the osteopenia and the osteoporosis group(P=0.056). The levels of serum SRC-3 were negatively correlated with the BMD diagnosis grading (r=-0.543, P < 0.001). By using the ROC curve analysis, the serum level of SRC-3 for PMW with osteoporosis and osteopenia were found to be 0.297 ng/mL and 0.347 ng/mL, respectively. The levels of serum SRC-3 were positively associated with BMI (r=0.395, P<0.001) and LS-BMD (r=0.503,P<0.001) in the postmenopausal women. Conclusion SRC-3 might be an useful index to reflect the severity of lumbar spine bone loss.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of hydrogen proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1 H-MRS)for detection of Wallerian degeneration of the pyramidal tract after cerebral infarction.Methods Multiple metabolic indices including NAA,Cho, Cr of the bilateral cerebral peduncle were detected by using 1 H-MRS in 1 5 patients with unilateral middle cerebral artery infarction and 1 5 age-matched healthy volunteers,NAA/Cr,Cho/Cr were also calculated.Comparing the difference between cerebral infarction group and the control group ,the ROC curve was analyzed.Results The values of NAA/Cr in the ipsilateral cerebral peduncle of cerebral infarction patients were significantly lower than that of the contralateral,and there were significant differences between the two groups(P <0.05).The values of NAA/Cr in the ipsilateral cerebral peduncle of cerebral infarction patients decreased (P <0.05),as compared with that of the control group.The area under the ROC curve was 0.947,the truncation point was 1.63.The NAA/Cr val-ues of the contralateral cerebral peduncle of cerebral infarction patients had no significant differences compared with the control group (P >0.05),the Cho/Cr values of the ipsilateral and the contralateral cerebral peduncle had no significant difference compared with the control group (P >0.05).Conclusion 1 H-MRS can detect Wallerian degeneration of the pyramidal tract after cerebral infarction.

Objective In this prospective study,we evaluated the effects of remifentsni]in ASA Ⅰ～Ⅱ patients undergoing transsphenoidal surgery. Methods After the induction of anesthesia,patients were randomly allocated to the Isoflurane(n=11,isoflurane (MAP)increased>80mmHg during maximal dosage of isoflurane or remifentanil,esmolol was administered.At the end of anesthesia,extubation and awakening times,respiratory rate,SpO2,MAP,heart rate and adverse effects were recorded. Results Hemodynamics and bleeding(minimal, mild, moderate, severe) were not different between groups. Esmolol was administered to 7 patients in the isoflurane group,and 3 patients in the remifentanil group(P<0.01). The dose of esmolol was larger in the isoflurane group(1.1±0.7 versus 0.4±0.5mg/kg,P<0.05). Time to extubation did not differ,whereas time to follow commands was shorter in Remifentanil patients (16 ±7versus 10 ± 1min,P <0.01). No adverse effects occurred in the early post-operative period. Conclusion Stable bemodynamics and the rapid emergence and the absence of postoperative respiratory depression seem to be the chief benefits from the use of balanced anesthesia with remifentanil in elective transsphenoidal surgery.

Objective:To investigate the application value of pelvic floor ultrasound in screening early postpartum stress urinary incontinence (SUI).Methods:A total of 220 postpartum women, who were admitted by the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of The People's Hospital of Hechi from January 2018 to June 2019, were selected for this study. These women were divided into SUI ( n = 52) and no SUI ( n = 168) groups according to whether SUI occurred within 42 days after delivery. Pelvic floor ultrasound parameters and clinical data were compared between the two groups. The effects of each ultrasound parameter on postpartum SUI were assessed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted for each parameter. The area under the ROC was calculated. The risk factors for postpartum SUI were investigated using the logistic regression analysis. Results:The number of deliveries (≥ 2 times), the proportion of women subjected to vaginal delivery, and neonatal weight in the SUI group were significantly higher than those in the no SUI group [ χ2 = 4.13, 3.30, t = 4.43, all P < 0.05]. There were significant differences in the bladder neck position and levator hiatus area in the resting state between the two groups ( t = 2.29, 3.09, both P < 0.05). There were significant differences in the bladder neck position, levator hiatus area, urethral rotation angle, and bladder neck mobility during the Valsalva movement between the two groups ( t = 13.14, 4.27, 15.64, 8.54, all P < 0.05). The areas under the ROC of bladder neck position and levator hiatus area in the resting state and the areas under the ROC of bladder neck position, levator hiatus area, urethral rotation angle, and bladder neck mobility during the Valsalva movement were 0.707, 0.725, 0.730, 0.771, 0.813, and 0.836, respectively. The area under the ROC of parameters used in combination was 0.849. Logistic regression analysis results revealed that the number of deliveries (≥ 2 times), bladder neck position (> 27.286 mm) and levator ani hiatus area in resting state (> 16.663 cm 2), and bladder neck position (< -2.774 mm), levator hiatus area (> 21.915 cm 2), urethral rotation angle (> 80.445°), and bladder neck mobility (> 30.501°) during the Valsalva movement were the risk factors for postpartum SUI. Conclusion:Combined use of pelvic floor ultrasound parameters is valuable for the diagnosis of postpartum SUI. Abnormal changes in the bladder neck position, levator ani hiatus area, urethral rotation angle, and bladder neck mobility are closely related to the occurrence of postpartum SUI. Therefore, combined use of pelvic floor ultrasound parameters can be preferred to screen early postpartum SUI.

Objective:To explore the association between different paths of diabetic progression and dyslipidemia in a Nanjing adult population.Methods:From January 2017 to June 2018, 61, 098 local residents aged ≥18 years were selected from the Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance database in Nanjing using a five-stage stratified cluster random sampling method. Data were collected through interview surveys, physical measurements, and laboratory examinations. The relationship between different rates of diabetic progression and dyslipidemia was analyzed using complex weighting and multilevel models.Results:In all, 60, 283 participants were finally enrolled in the study. The weighted proportions of normal glucose regulation, pre-diabetes, and diabetes were 71.2%, 17.9%, and 10.9%, respectively. The overall weighted prevalence, awareness, treatment, and control of dyslipidemia were 29.8%, 41.6%, 28.9%, and 22.9%, respectively. The weighted proportion of patients with dyslipidemia combined with diabetes was 52.9%. The weighted prevalence of dyslipidemia in adults with normal glucose regulation, pre-diabetes, and diabetes was 24.0%, 38.8%, and 52.9%, respectively (all P<0.001). Compared to the normal glucose regulation group, subjects with pre-diabetes ( OR = 2.04, 95% CI: 1.95-2.13) or diabetes ( OR= 3.87, 95% CI: 3.66-4.10) had possibly gradually increased risks of dyslipidemia (all P<0.001). In addition, there was an increasing trend toward awareness, treatment, and control of dyslipidemia with increasing levels of glucose (all P<0.001). The weighted awareness of dyslipidemia in adults with normal glucose regulation, pre-diabetes, and diabetes was 36.3%, 42.8%, and 56.2%, respectively; the corresponding rates of treatment and control were 23.7%, 29.2%, and 43.7%, and 20.4%, 22.6%, and 30.1%, respectively. Conclusion:Diabetes and dyslipidemia have become the main chronic diseases in the Nanjing population.
