Objective To explore risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with gallstone disease. Methods The clinical data of 429 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients complicated with gallstone disease (case group) and 2145 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients without gallstone disease (control group) were collected from the Health Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2007 to May 2010. According to sure (SBP), diastolic blood pressnre (DBP), fasting blood glucose (FBG), total cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-CH), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-CH) and body mass index (BMI) were statistically analyzed by fourfold table chi-square test or conditional Logistic regression.Results Univariate analysis showed that there was a significant difference in the levels of SBP, FBG, TC, HDL-CH and BMI between the case group and the control group (x2 =20.323, 4.365, 4.028, 7.049, 7.319, P＜0.05). Multivariate analysis confirmed that SBP, TC, HDL-CH and BMI were risk factors for gallstone disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (x2 = 18. 047, 6. 905, 12. 884, 7. 557, P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusion Increased SBP, TC and BMI and decreased HDL-CH may be the risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with gallstone disease.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of gallbladder carcinoma,so as to provide theoretical base for the prevention of gallbladder carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 153 patients with gallbladder carcinoma (gallbladder carcinoma group) who were admitted to the Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2000 to December 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 300 patients with cholecystolithiasis (cholecystolithiasis group) and 300 patients without gallbladder carcinoma or cholecystolithiasis (control group)were collected and matched at the ratio of 1∶2 to conduct the controlled study.Data were statistically analyzed by the Chi-square test and conditional Logistric regression.Results Univariate analysis showed significant difference in age,history of cholecystolithiasis,postmenopausal age,accumulated menstrual period,giving birth or not and number of birth between gallbladder carcinoma group and control group ( x2 =58.22,180.14,9.59,24.30,18.66,15.17,P ＜0.05).Age,history of cholecystolithiasis,accumulated menstrual period and number of birth were the independent risk factors of gallbladder carcinoma (x2 =55.76,180.95,24.30,8.54,P ＜ 0.05).The risk of having gallbladder carcinoma in patients who had a history of cholecystolithiasis was 34 times higher than those who did not have the history of cholecystolithiasis (OR =34.22).Late postmenopausal age (51 -55 years old),longer accumulated menstrual period ( ≥30 years),and the number of birth ( 3 times) were associated with higher risk of gallbladder carcinoma (OR =3.96,9.68,3.51 ). Age,course of cholecystolithiasis and accumulated menstrual period and number of birth were the risk factors of gallbladder carcinoma when comparing patients who have history of cholecystolithiasis in the gallbladder carcinoma group with those in the cholecystolithiasis group (x2 =70.66,16.66,11.59,4.69,P ＜ 0.05 ).Age,course of cholecystolithiasis and accumulated menstrual period were the independent risk factors of gallbladder carcinoma ( x2 =64.29,8.82,5.58,P ＜ 0.05).The risk of gallbladder carcinoma increased as the increase of age and course of cholecystolithiasis. The accumulated menstrual period ≥ 30 years was also a risk factor of gallbladder carcinoma. Conclusions Age,history of cholecystolithiasis,course of cholecystolithiasis,accumulated menstrual period and number of birth may be the risk factors of gallbladder carcinoma.For patients with age above 60 years and course of cholecystolithiasis above 3 years,cholecystectomy should be conducted to reduce the incidence of gallbladder carcinoma,and great importance should be attached to female patients with indications mentioned above.

Insulin resistance, lipid metabolism disorders, independent autonomic neuropathy are high risk factors for gallstone formation in type 2 diabetic patients. In recent years, there have been a lot of new developments on the relationship between type 2 diabetes and gallstones, such as adiponectin, leptin and metabolic syndrome, etc. Based on these studies, the risk factors of type 2 diabetes complicated with gallstones are summarized in this paper.

Objective To determine the risk factors of gallstones. Methods A case-control study was conducted on 4087 patients with gallstones (the study group) and 20435 individuals without gallstones (the control group) at the Health Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) between January 2007 to May 2010. Using age and sex, the study and the control groups were matched in 1 : 5 ratio. Data were statistically analyzed using Chi-square test and conditional logistic regression.Results Univariate analysis showed significant differences in diabetic mellitus (DM), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastalic blood pressure (DBP), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-CH) and body mass index (BMI) between the study and the control groups (P＜0.05). Multivariate analysis confirmed that DM, SBP, HDL-CH and BMI were associated with gallstones, and their adjusted odds ratio (95％ confidence interval) were 0. 825 (0. 736 ～0. 925), 0. 908 (0. 828～0. 996), 1. 211 (1. 056～1. 389) and 0. 746 (0. 691～0. 805), respectively.The incidences of total cholesterol (TCH) and low deasity dipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-CH) were not significantly different between the two groups (P＞0.05). ConclusionsDM、SBP、HDL-CH and BMI were found to be the risk factors for gallstones. To prevent gallstones, weight reduction, blood pressure control and normalization of blood lipid are important measures.

Objective To evaluate the application effect of clinical pharmacy services in the secondary prevention ot stroke.Methods Hospitalized stroke patients were selected in Taihe Hospital from June 2013 to August 2014.The patients meeting the inclusion criteria were paired and sequentially numbered,and randomly divided into observation group (n =100) and control group (n =102).The patients were treated routinely during thc hospitalization.The clinical pharmacists conducted the drug education.The control group implemented the telephone follow-up for guiding compliance behavior one month after discharge.The observation group continued to perform clinical pharmacist-leading service projects.The medication compliance (Morisky scale),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),glycated hemoglobin (HbA1 C),serum total cholesterol (TC),low density lipoprotein-C (LDL-C) and relapse rate were compared three months,six months and twelve months after the two groups discharged.Results The medication compliance,SBP,DBP,HbA1C,TC,LDL-C and recurrence rate after hospital discharge were no statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05) three months after the two groups discharged,but statistically significant between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01) six months and twelvc months after the two groups discharged.Levels of SBP,DBP,HbA1 C,TC and LDL-C in the two groups were both significantly lower than before (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01).The relapse rate of the observation group three months,six months and twelve months after they discharged was 2.00％,5.00％ and 15.00％,respectively,and that of the control group was 2.94％,13.72％ and 28.43％,respectively.Conclusion The pharmacy services in the secondary prevention of stroke can improve the patient medication compliance and better control the blood pressure,blood glucose and blood lipid lcvcls,and reduce the relapse rate.It should be recommended in the clinical practice work.

Objective To detect the expression of Th17 pathway-related genes in patients with syphilis serofast reaction and to investigate the mechanism of Th17 cells in syphilis serofast reaction. Meth-ods Peripheral blood samples were collected from patients with syphilis serofast reaction ( n=8 ) , patients who were syphilis-seronegative after treatment (n=8) and healthy subjects (n=8). Total RNA was extrac-ted from each blood sample and then reversely transcribed into cDNA. PCR-Array analysis was performed to quantify the expression levels of Th17 pathway-related genes. Results The expression levels of genes with a fold change >2 (up or down regulated) were defined as differentially expressed. (1) Compared with the control group, the patients with syphilis serofast reaction showed increased expression of genes encoding fork-head box protein 3 (Foxp3) and IL-10, but decreased expression of genes encoding C-C motif chemokine 22 (CCL22), colony stimulating factor 2 (CSF2), CSF3, chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 6 (CXCL6), IL-17A, IL-17D, IL-21, IL-23R, IL-9, interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4), RAR-related orphan receptorα( RORα) , RAR-related orphan receptor γ ( RORγ) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). (2) Compared with the seronegative syphilis group, the expression levels of genes encoding Foxp3 and IL-10 in patients with syphilis serofast reaction were up-regulated, while the expression of genes encoding CCL22, CSF2, CSF3, IL-17A, IL-21, IL-23R, IRF4, RORγ and STAT3 were down-regulated. (3) The expression levels of genes encoding CXCL6 and IL-9 in seronegative syphilis group were lower than those in control group. Conclusion The abnormal expression of Th17 pathway-related genes might relate to the pathogenesis of serofast state of syphilis.

Objective: To explore the value of dual energy CT lung perfusion imaging (DEPI) for diagnosing pulmonary embolism (PE) in comparison with CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA). Methods: There were 49 patients with suspected PE received DEPI scanning and 19 with CTPA conifrmed diagnosis were enrolled in this study. CTPA image was obtained by 80 kv data, and DEPI image was obtained by PBV software. The location, type of PE in CTPA image, and the location, shape of perfusion defect in DEPI were observed and compared by segment basis. The correlation and agreement of CTPA and DEPI for diagnosing PE were calculated and the un-agreement was analyzed. Results: A total of 380 segments were included for analysis. CTPA detected 162 segments of PE and DEPI detected 155 segments of perfusion defect or reduction, partial PE were mainly presented by perfusion defects as speckles, patches or without perfusion defect, and complete PE were mainly showed segmental or sub-segmental perfusion defects. CTPA and DEPI were correlated for PE diagnosis (χ2=305.5,P=0.000), the diagnostic agreement was 83.42% and KAPPA value was 0.659. Conclusion: The perfusion defect in DEPI is related to the degree and type of PE presented in CTPA, their combination is helpful for diagnosing PE.

Objective:To observe the effect of transdermal fentanyl combined with gabapentin for the treatment of malignant neu-ropathic pain (MNP). Methods:A total of 60 patients with MNP were randomly divided into two groups. A total of 30 cases in the con-trol group received transdermal fentanyl according to the dosages of opioid medicine that patients used. Such dosages were gradually in-creased until the pain relief visual analogue scale (VAS) fell below 3 or until the times of breakthrough pain became less than 3. For the combined group, gabapentin was co-administered with transdermal fentanyl, similar to the control group. Initially, 100 mg of gabapen-tin was administered thrice a day. This dosage was gradually increased until pain relief. However, gabapentin dosages were kept below 2,400 mg a day. VAS, quality of life (QOL), degree of pain relief, dosages of fentanyl and morphine, and side effects were evaluated be-fore treatment and at one, two, three, and four weeks after the treatment. Results:Both groups exhibited lower VAS after treatment (P<0.05), but the difference was observed to be more significant in the combined group than that in the control group (P<0.05). Both groups exhibited improved QOL (P<0.05), which was observed to be more significant in the combined group than in the control group (P<0.05). The effective rate was 96.7%in the combined group and 83.3%in the control group. The dosage of opioid medicine and the side effects in the combined group were less than those in the control group. Conclusion:Transdermal fentanyl combined with gabapen-tin is effective for the treatment of malignant neuropathic pain.
