Objective To investigate the clinical effects of gliclazide sustained-release tablet for recently diag-nosed type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods 118 subjects with recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes and normal figure were divided into three groups. The three group subjects used gliclazide sustained-release tablet, repaglinide(import-ed) ,novolin 30R for 12 weeks,respectively. For all pretherapy and post-treatment cases, blood glucose and glycosy-lated hemoglobin were tested before meal. After two hours of meal, blood glucose was tested again. Meanwhile, hypo-glycaemia event was inspected. The test results were analyzed by "mean ± standard deviation" method. Results There are no significant difference(P>0.05) in fasting blood sugar and postprandial blood sugar(2h) level between the group using gliclazide sustained-release tablet and the group using novolin 30R. The clinical effects of both gli-clazide sustained-release tablet and novolin 30R to fasting blood sugar are all better than that of repaglinide(import-ed) (P < 0.01). But there are no significant difference in postprandial blood sugar(2h) level between the group of us-ing gliclazide sustained-release tablet and the following two group: repaglinide(imported) and novolin 30R. Conclu-sion The investigation results show that gliclazide sustained-release tablet is better than repaglinide(imported) in fasting blood sugar. But for the effects of postprandial blood sugar(2h), there is no significant difference between gli-clazide sustained-release tablet, repaglinide(imported) and novolin 30R.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of the peripheral blood monocyte human leukocyte antigen-DR (mHLA-DR) for assessment of degree of severity and the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods A case-control study was conducted. Eighty-six AP patients admitted to Shandong Liaocheng People's Hospital from June 2014 to May 2015 were enrolled. Patients were classified into four groups [mild (n = 33), moderate (n = 25), severe (n = 16), critical (n = 12)] according to the disease classification. Eighty healthy persons subjected to physical examination center of our hospital at the same time were served as controls. Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) scores in patients were estimated. Flow cytometry was used to measure the expression of the peripheral blood mHLA-DR, and the Pearson method was used to analyze the relationship between the level of mHLA-DR and the APACHE Ⅱ score. The receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC) was plotted, and then the clinical value of the peripheral blood mHLA-DR was analyzed for the diagnostic value in AP patients. Results The expression of the mHLA-DR in patients with AP was significantly lower than that of healthy control group [(63.7±18.6)% vs. (86.4±8.3)%, t = 5.319, P < 0.001]. The expression levels of the mHLA-DR in mild group, moderate group, severe group, and critical group were (79.6±6.5)%, (66.4±9.4)%, (49.9±8.1)%, (32.5±12.0)%, respectively, and the APACHE Ⅱ score were 4.67±1.99, 5.88±2.05, 9.06±2.62, 12.33±3.96, respectively. Pair wise comparisons were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The HLA-DR expression level in the peripheral blood of patients with AP was negatively correlated with the APACHE Ⅱ score (r = -0.695, P < 0.001). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of mHLA-DR expression in peripheral blood for AP was 0.894 [95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.847-0.941, P < 0.001], and the cut-off point was 84.40%, with the sensitivity of 75.0%, the specificity of 90.7%, and the accuracy rate of 83.1%. The AUC of mHLA-DR expression for mild AP was 0.938 (95%CI = 0.889-0.987, P < 0.001), and the cut-off point was 72.70%, with the sensitivity of 87.9%, the specificity of 88.7%, and the accuracy rate of 88.4%. The AUC of mHLA-DR expression for severe and critical AP was 0.943 (95%CI = 0.881-1.005, P < 0.001), and the cut-off point was 57.85%, with the sensitivity of 84.0%, the specificity of 96.4%, and the accuracy rate of 90.6%. Conclusions The expression levels of the peripheral blood mHLA-DR in AP patients can reflect the degree of disease, and contribute to the diagnosis of AP. The value of mHLA-DR may be used as a new biological indicator in the diagnosis and assessment for the severity of AP.

Objective To investigate the effect of hyperurieemia on cardiovascular and cerebrovaseular complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). Methods According to the level of blood uric acid,430 patients with T2DM were divided into hyperuricemia group and non-hyperurieemia group, the differences of uric acid(UA) ,creatine(Cr) ,total cholesterol(TC) ,triglyeride(TG) ,fasting blood glucose(FBG) ,glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c) and body mass index(BMI) were compared,and the occurrences of coronary heart disease, hypertension and acute cerebrovascular accidence were observed. Results The FBG and HbAIc were not significantly different between the two groups(P>0.05). The BMI ,TG,TC and Cr in the hyperurieemia group were significantly higher than those in the non-hyperuricemia group(P<0.05 ). The incidence rates of coronary heart disease, hypertension and acute cerebrovascular diseases in the hyperuricemia group were also significantly higher than those in the non-hyperuricemia group (P<0.05 ). Conclusion Hyperuricemia is obviously correlated with obesity and blood lipid abnormalities. Hyperurieemia can aggravate the metabolic disturbances,and can accelerate the occurrence and development of cardiovascular and eerebrovascular diseases in the patients with T2DM.

Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of effector T cell (Teff), regulatory T cell (Treg) and their cytokines in patients with vitiligo.Methods:84 patients with vitiligo (38 cases in stable stage, 46 cases in advanced stage) who were admitted to the Dermatology Department of the Dezhou People's Hospital between June 2018 and June 2019 and 30 healthy people (control group) were enrolled in the study. The levels of Teff subsets and Treg cells in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry. The levels of Teff subsets and Treg cells-associated cytokines were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The relationship between Teff subsets and Treg cells levels in peripheral blood, relationship between Teff subgroups, Treg cells-associated cytokines and course of vitiligo, skin lesion area were analyzed.Results:The levels of T helper cell (Th)17 and Th22 in peripheral blood of vitiligo group were significantly higher than those of control group, while levels of Treg cells were significantly lower than control group ( P<0.05). Compared with the stable vitiligo group, the levels of Th17 and Th22 in peripheral blood were higher and levels of Treg cells were lower in the advanced vitiligo group ( P<0.05). Treg cell level was negatively correlated with Th17 cell level ( r=-0.303, P=0.001), and negatively correlated with Th22 cell level ( r=-0.200, P=0.033). The levels of serum interleukin (IL)-17 and IL-22 in vitiligo group were significantly higher than those in control group, while the level of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) was significantly lower than that in control group ( P<0.05). Compared with the stable vitiligo group, levels of serum IL-17 and IL-22 were higher and level of TGF-β was lower in the advanced vitiligo group ( P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that levels of IL-17 and IL-22 were positively correlated with skin lesion area ( r=0.361, 0.288, P<0.05), and level of TGF-β was negatively correlated with skin lesion area ( r=-0.312, P<0.05). Conclusions:Teff/Treg cells are unbalanced in patients with vitiligo, showing obvious shift to Teff subsets. The progression of vitiligo may be related to Teff subsets and Treg cells-associated cytokines.
