Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2012;35(18):30-32
Objective To investigate the correlation of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) in early period of pregnancy and abnormal glucose metabolism during gestation period.Methods Two hundred and seventy-seven women with single pregnancy and non-propregnant diabetes mellitus were selected.FPG,fasting insulin,insulin resistance index were detected in early period of pregnancy ( <19 weeks).One hundred g oral glucose tolerant test (OGTT) was taken during 24-36 weeks.According to OGTT,patients were divided into gestational impaired glucose tolerance (GIGT) group (24 cases),gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM) group(23 cases),OGTT 1 h higher blood glucose (HG-1) group (26 cases) and normal group (204 cases).Results FPG,fasting insulin and insulin resistance index of GDM group and HG-1 group were obviously higher than those of normal group [( 4.58 ± 0.36 ),( 4.58 ± 0.38) mmol/L vs.( 4.20 ±0.33) mmol/L,(9.4 ± 1.1),(9.3 ±2.1) U/L vs.(7.0 ± 2.1) U/L,2.0 ± 0.4,2.0 ± 0.3 vs.1.3 ± 0.4,P< 0.05].FPG of GIGT group [(4.45 ±0.36) mmol/L] was higher than that of normal group (P <0.05).After controlled age,body mass index,family history of type-2 diabetes mellitus and sport exercises,the relative risk degree of blood glucose metabolism had correlation with FPG,fasting insulin and insulin resistance index in early period of pregnancy (P < 0.05).Conclusion FPG,fasting insulin and insulin resistance index in early period of pregnancy can predict abnormal glucose metabolism.
2.Evaluative role of magenetocardiography on prognosis of cardiac function in patients with coronary heart disease by measuring the time of heart repolarization
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2005;9(31):216-218
BACKGROUND:About 50% patients with coronary heart disease have no symptoms of cardiac disease before the first onset of myocardial infarction. Therefore, it is of great importance to make early and accurate detection of coronary heart disease and myocardial ischemia.OBJECTIVE: To measure the time of heart repolarization with magnetocardiography and probe into the role of non-invasive magnetocardiographic examination in evaluating cardiac function in patients with coronary heart disease.DESIGN: Case-control observation.SETTING: Department of Cardiology of Philippustift Hospital, Essen,GermanyPARTICIPANTS: Totally 52 patients hospitalized for suspected coronary heart disease in the Department of Cardiology of Philippustift Hospital(Essen, Germany) between March 1998 and December 2002 were recruited,and another 10 patients diagnosed as old myocardial infarction were set as myocardial infarction group. Informed consents were obtained from the patients. Totally 32 healthy volunteers aged above 40 years old were recruited as the control group.METHODS: All the patients received the following examinations: physical and laboratory examinations, rest and stress electrocardiography(ECG), echocardiography, coronary artery angiography and magnetocardiography(MCG) examination. The control group received only rest ECG and MCG examination. The values of QT dispersion with ECG and MCG were compared between the patients and healthy controls. The diagnostic criteria for coronary heart disease: stenosis of one coronary artery ≥ 75% according to coronary artery angiography; index of repolarization time of the heart was measured with MCG QT dispersion and MCG dispersion coincidence (the mean of probe signal and QT dispersion of peripheral probe in each MCG).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ECG QT dispersion, MCG QT dispersion as well as coincidence index of QT dispersion of the observed subjects in each group.RESULTS: The 52 patients with suspected coronary heart disease,10 with myocardial infarction, and 32 healthy controls all entered the result analysis. The patients with suspected coronary disease were divided into 2 groups: group with coronary heart disease (n=27) and group without coronary heart disease (n=25). [1] Comparison of ECG QT dispersion: there was no significant difference among the groups(P > 0.05). [2] Comparison of MCG QT dispersion: MCG QT dispersion in myocardial infarction group was significantly higher than that in control group [81.3±21.5, 52.4±13.6 (F=13.113, P < 0.05)]. [3]Comparison of coincidence index of QT dispersion: Coincidence index of QT dispersion in myocardial infarction group and coronary heart disease group was both significantly higher than that in control group [15.6±4.2, 14.9±4.1, 10.2±2.7 (F=2.403, 3.332, P < 0.01)].CONCLUSION: Compared with ECG, MCG can better reflect changes in the repolarization process of patients with coronary heart disease,and coincidence index of dispersion is superior to QT dispersion. This is because MCG is more sensitive to tangential currents presented at the precardial region when myocardial ischemia and infarction occur.

OBJECTIVE To discuss about the recurrent respiratory tract infections(RRTI) treatment by traditional Chinese medicine.RRTI is very commonly in children. METHODS According to clinical experience, as well as integrated with Western medicine,we think about the mechanism of RRTI from two sides.The main reason was the function of lung and spleen deficiency in traditional Chinese medicine theories;another reason was attached with outside evils.We treaed RRTI with different syndromes with different methods,such as dispelling the evil in the superficies with acrid drugs and cod drugs,regulating the function of lung and spleen;supplement Qi and supporting superficies, regulating Ying and Wei,nourishing Yin to reduce heat,strengthening the spleen and nourishing lung. RESULTS It has a good theropentio effective with traditional Chinese medicine on RRTI.During acute infectious period,we treated mainly eliminate evils,as well as to support healthy energy.During recovery period,we treated mainly support healthy energy,as well as to eliminate evils. CONCLUSIONS Traditional Chinese medicine has long time therapentir effect on RRTI,with less recurrence.
