ObjectiveTo investigate whether the good control of fasting plasma glucose(FPG) has any effects on bone turnover rate in type2 diabetes mellitus (DM).MethodsA series of markers,such as bone specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP),deoxypyridinoline (DPD),were assessed before and after glycemic control for more than 18 days in 43 poorly controlled type 2 DM patients with initial hemoglobin A1c over 8%.ResultsBy either oral hypoglycemic agent or insulin administration,or both, ideal control of FPG resulted in a reduction in the secretion of urinary calcium(Ca),phosphate(Pi) and magnesium(Mg),and an increase in serum Ca and Pi without obvious changes in serum Mg.The marker for bone resorption,urinary DPD and the marker for bone formation,BAP in serum were reduced significantly before and after the management.The results indicated that the decreases both in DPD and in BAP were not only correlated well with each other,but with the improvement in glycemic indices as well.ConclusionGood control of hyperglycemia in poorly controlled type 2 DM may have the high bone turnover rate back to normal and protect type 2 DM patients from bone loss.

Objective] To sum up Qiu Changlin's clinical experience and academic views of treatment of multiple sclerosis remission stage. [Methods] Through the way of reviewing the related literature of traditional Chinese medicine, clinical practice with teacher, arranging medical records, systematically arranging Qiu Changlin's clinical experience and academic perspective in the aspects of etiology and pathogenesis, syndrome differentiation ,treatment ideas, drug integration of TCM and western medicine. [Results] Qiu Changlin believes that the MS remission stage is of deficiency syndrome or deficiency complicated with excess syndrome. The main pathogenesis is insufficiency of kidney yin and kidney yang, deficiency of governor vessel. The subject is wind and phlegm attacking into collateral, stagnation of phlegm and blood stasis. Put forward that the treatment based on the differentiation between the main syndrome and minor syndrome. In clinic, divided the main syndrome into three types, like insufficiency of kidney yin, insufficiency of kidney yang, insufficiency of kidney essence. Establish the therapeutic principles like nourishing yin and kidney, warming yang and nourishing kidney, the complementing of yin and yang, dispelling wind and dredging collaterals. The kidney yin deficiency type can modify Six Ingredient Rehmannia pill, Zhibaidihuang pill, Zuogui pill, Dabuyin pill, Huqian pill. The kidney yang deficiency type can modify Jingui Shenqi pill, Yougui pill. The kidney essence deficiency type can modify Dihuangyinzi. Regard that nourishing kidney and governing vessel to the fundamental treatment, ants going into collaterals to dispel the blood stasis and wind for treatment of the symptoms, and believe that nourishing kidney and extinguish wind should always run through the whole treatment process. When treatment based on the main syndrome, we should emphasize personalized features that can reflect the characteristics of this disease, in order to improve the clinical curative effect. [Conclusion] Qiu Changlin has rich clinical experience in the treatment of MS remission stage;patients are satisfactory to the curative effect and have fewer side effects. It's fully explained that TCM has certain advantages in the treatment of MS remission stage, and is worth popularizing inheritance.

Objective To observe the influence of Ginkgo laminae on serum lipid, serum level of homocysteine (HCY) and carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) of patients in recovery phase of cerebral infarction. Methods 100 patients in recovery phase of cerebral infarction were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, with 50 cases in each group. The control group were given aspirin enteric coated tablets 0.1g qn po., atorvastatin calcium capsule 20mg qn po.; the treatment group on the basis of the control group were added Ginkgo laminae, 1 tablet per time, three times daily. The blood liqid and HCY levels pre-treatment and 1, 3 and 6 months post-treatment and IMT value pre-treatment and 6 months post-treatment were collected. Results The triglyceride level had no significantly change in two groups. The high density lipoprotein cholesterol 3, 6 months post-treatment in treatment group was significantly higher than control group(P<0.05). The cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterin 1 ,3, 6 months post-treatment in two groups significantly decreased compared with pre-treatment(P<0.05), while there was no significant difference between two groups at each time point. The cholesterol in treatment group had a smooth decreasing, while it had an increasing trend in control group 3 months post-treatment. The HCY 3 months post-treatment in treatment group was significantly lower than pre-treatment and control group 1, 3 and 6 months post-treatment (P<0.05). The IMT 6 months post-treatment in treatment group was significantly lower than control gorup(P<0.05). Conclusion Ginkgo laminae combined with atorvastatin for reducing lipid, which could raise high density lipoprotein cholesterol and reduce cholesterol smoothly and lower IMT, with the effective protection on vessel. The blood homocysteine level decreases after taking Ginkgo laminae for three months, which also could improve impaired endothelial function induced by high level of HCY and slow down the process of atherosclerotic plaque.
