Objective To study the association of liver fat content (LFC) with insulin resistance and β cell function. Methods One hundred and nine subjects including 31 cases with impaired glucose regulation (IGR), 31 newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (NT2DM) and 47 normal controls (NC) with normal metabolic parameters were involved in the study. LFC was measured by 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H MRS) and the insulin resistance and β cell function were evaluated by oral 75 g glucose tolerance test. Results (1 ) LFCs were3.83% (2.35% ～7.59% ) ,12. 82% (8.10%～21.37%), and 21.99% (11.89%～34.43%), being progressively raised in the respective NC, IGR, NT2DM groups(P<0.01). (2) The subjects were divided into four subgroups according to LFC Quartile: Quartile 1 (LFC<4. 04% ) , Quartile 2(4. 04% ≤LFC<9. 77% ), Quartile 3 (9.77% ≤LFC<20.78% ) ,and Quartile 4( LFC≥20.78% ). Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) values were elevated significantly and progressively starting from Quartile 2(P<0. 01). (3) Insulin from 0 to 30 min ( △I30), the ratio of insulin from 0 to 30 min to glucose from 0 to 30 min ( △I30/ △G30) , C peptide from 0 to 30 min (△CP30) had a trend of increase in Quartile 2,then trended to decrease in Quartile 3. In Quartile 4, △CP30 and △I30/△G30 sharply decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The ratio of C peptide from 0 to 30 min to glucose from 0 to 30 min ( △CP30/△G30) began to decrease from Quartile 3 (P<0. 05). The ratio of area under curve of C peptide to area under curve of glucose (CPAUC/GAUC) was significantly decreased from Quartile 3(P<0.05). From Quartile 3,glucose level became abnormally elevated to impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance (P<0.01). (4) LFC was positively correlated with HOMA-IR (rs =0. 618 ,P<0.01), but was negatively correlated with △CP30(rs =-0.282), △CP30/△G30(rs = -0. 404), and CPAUC/GAUC(rs = -0. 308,all P<0.01). (5) Stepwise regression analysis demonstrated that LFC was the strongest predictor of HOMA-IR. Conclusions When LFC accumulated to 4% , insulin resistance occurred and the early phase of insulin secretion was compensatively increased. As the LFC further accumulated to 10% , both the early phase as well as β cell function in whole were deteriorated, and hyperglycemia developed.

Objective To investigate the prevalence for endemic fluorosis of drinking water type and to discuss the relationship between endemic fluorosis and urinary fluorine in Linyi county, Shanxi province. Methods In 2006, three counties were selected as heavy, medium and control areas according to the distributing feature of the disease. The dental fluorosis in each spots was examined by Dean method. The levels of urinary fluorine were determined by fluorine selective ion electrode. The skeletal fluorosis of adults were examined by X-ray. Results There was evident differences of dental fluorosis and skeletal fluoresis among the heavy and the medium endemic fluorosis and control areas(X~2 = 410.945, P < 0.01 ), the prevalence of dental fluoresis in the medium area and the heavy area were 92.34% (253/274), 90.09% ( 291/323), significantly higher than in the control area[23.27% (64/275), X~2 = 274.927,268.287, all P < 0.01]. The heavy area had the highest rate of the skeletal fluorosis rate [59.75% (141/236) ], the medium area had the middle-level of the skeletal fluorosis rate[24.76%(52/210), X~2 = 183.578, P< 0.01]. Urine fluorine contents in both beavy[ (4.69 ± 0.17)mg/L] and medium areal (4.86 ± 0.13)mg/L] were higher than that in the control areas[ (1.75 ± 0.04)mg/L, H = 411.197, P< 0.01], and there was linear relevance between the different degree of skeletal fluorosis and urine fluorine contents (r = 0.508, P < 0.01). Conclusions The local fluoresis condition of Linyi county in Shanxi province was serious. The degree of skeletal fluorosis is associated with the fluoride content in urine.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the influence of Chinese drug Dahuang Zhechong pill on the hepatocellular function.

METHODThirty-seven patients with hepatocirrhosis and twelve normal controls were performed the hepatobiliary scintgraphy with Tc-99m labeled ethylene hepatobiliary iminodiacetic acid (99 mTc-EHIDA), and the biochemical examination of hepatic function. There was 19 cases repeated the imaging after 6 months treated with chineses drug. By the three compartmental model configurations, the function parameters of hepatocellular extraction and excretion were calculated.

RESULTIn the hepatocirrhosis groups, the hepatocellular uptake peak time and mean residence index were higher than those in normal controls (P < 0.01). Compared to normal controls, the uptake index, uptake speed index and descendent speed index were decreased markedly (P < 0.05). After treatment for 6 months with Chinese drug, the level of serum transaminase, globulin and bilirubin was lower than that before treatment. The uptake peak time and mean residence index decreased notably after treatment for 6 months (P < 0.01), and the uptake index increased, (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONChinese drug Dahuang Zhechong pill may improve the hepatocellular function and liver function status in patients with hepatocirrhosis.

Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) is an important cellular self-protection mechanism. It can activate the unfolded protein response (UPR) that promotes cell survival, but sustained ERS may lead to cell apoptosis. There are a lot of endoplasmic reticulum in the liver cells, and many liver-related diseases are associaled with endoplasmic reticulum stress, such as alcoholic liver disease, non-alcoholic liver disease, toxic liver injury, viral hepatitis, hepatic malignant tumors and hepatic ischemia- perfusion injury. This article will summarize the role of ERS in the pathogenesis of liver-related diseases and the significance of intervention in liver disease.

BACKGROUNDPatient characteristics may be an internal factor influencing patient complaints, but in China patient characterization is restricted to patient satisfaction surveys, and few studies have considered the relationship between patient characteristics and patient complaints. The aim of this research was to determine the reasons for complaints.

METHODSIn this study, we analyzed the characteristics of hospitalized patients and explored their relationship with medical complaints.

RESULTSThe significant factors were age (P = 0.045), hospital cost (P = 0.003), household nature (P < 0.001), and education (P < 0.001). The complaint rate decreased when the patients' age increased (regression coefficient, -0.606; OR, 0.545, and 95%CI, 0.301 - 0.987). The complaint rate increased with an increase in hospital cost (regression coefficient, 0.818; OR, 2.266; and 95%CI, 1.320 - 3.889). Patients from non-agricultural households had a higher complaint rate (regression coefficient, 1.051; OR, 2.861; and 95%CI, 1.611 - 5.082). Patients with higher education levels had lower complaint rates (regression coefficient, -0.944; OR, 0.389; and 95%CI, 0.234 - 0.647).

CONCLUSIONThe survey confirms that older patients and patients with higher education levels had lower complaint rates, while non-agricultural population and patients with higher hospital expenses had higher complaint rates.
