Objective To explore the influence of type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with subclinical hypothyroidism on diabetic vascular complications.Methods One hundred and two patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were selected.The serum free triiodothyronine (FT3),free thyroxine (FT4),thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH),anti-thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO-Ab),thyroglobulin antibody (TG-Ab) levels were measured by chemiluminescence method.The patients were divided into type 2 diabctes mellitus combined with subclinical hypothyroidism group (47 cases) and type 2 diabetes mellitus with normal thyroid function group (55 cases) according to the thyroid function.The glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c),total cholesterol (TC),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),triacylglycerol (TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),urea nitrogen,creatinine and albumin levels were measured.The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated according to the formula of modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD).The presence of diabetic retinopathy was examined by fundus examination,and the presence of lower limb artery lesions was measured by vascular ultrasound.All indicators were compared between 2 groups.Results There were no statistical differences in age,disease course,HbA1c,body mass index (BMI),TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C,incidence of lower limb artery lesions and incidence of diabetic retinopathy between 2 groups (P＞ 0.05).TheeGRF in type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with subclinical hypothyroidism group was significantly lower than that in type 2 diabetes mellitus with normal thyroid function group:(83.74 ± 21.55) ml/(min· 1.73 m2) vs.(115.02 ± 12.29) ml/(min· 1.73 m2),and there was statistical difference (t =4.274,P ＜ 0.01).The incidence of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with subclinical hypothyroidism group was significanlty higher than that in type 2 diabetes mellitus with normal thyroid function group:48.9％ (23/47) vs.23.6％(13/55),and there was statistical difference (x2 =7.103,P＜ 0.01).Logistic regression analysis showed that subclinical hypothyroidism was a risk factor for diabetic nephropathy (OR =0.524,95％ CI 0.12-0.93,P ＜ 0.05),but it was not the risk factor for diabetic retinopathy (OR =0.618,95％ CI0.19-2.16,P =0.475) and lower limb artery lesions (OR =0.485,95％ CI 0.32-2.13,P =0.689).Conclusion Subclinical hypothyroidism in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus has no obvious effect on lower limb arterial complications and diabetic retinopathy,but may increase the risk of diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To analyze the clinicopathologic characterizations and patients prognosis of basal-like breast cancer. Methods The clinicopathologic eharacterizations,patient 5 year disease-free survival rate and overall survival rate of 25 basal-like breast cancer patients were compared with 34 CerbB2 overexpressing subtype and 37 ER positive subtype breast cancer patients admitted in our hospital in the same period. Results Patients of basal-like breast cancer accounted for 15.7% of all patients admitted.Compared with CerbB2 over-expressing subtype(29.4%)and ER positive subtype(35.1%),basal-like breast cancer patients were eider with 56.0% being≥50 years old(P＜0.05).Basal-like subtype breast cancer was larger in tumor size than ER positive subtype(P＜0.05),56% of basal-like subtype were of poor-differentiated grade pathologically compared with 18% in CerbB2 overexpression type and 16% in ER positive subtype respectively. Meanwhile, axillary lymph node metastasis was hishbar in CerbB2 overexpressing and ER positive subtype(64.7%,64.9%)than that of basal-like subtype(40.0%).Most visceral metastases were found in basal-like and CerbB2 subtype,but there were more local lymph node and bone metastases in ER positive subtype.Five year overall survoval rate of CerbB2 overexpressing subtype (48.5%)and basal-like subtype breast cancer patients(44.1%)were poorer than that of ER positive subtype(83.8%).respectively;However,there was no difference in 5 year disease-free surviVal rate between the three subtypes(42.7%,40.4%,58.3%,respectively).Conclusions Similar to CerbB2 over-expressing subtype.tlle clinicopathologic characterization and prognosis in basal-like breast cancer are poorer than that in ER positive subtype.

objective To investigate the tissue localization of CD4+T cells producing IL-17,namely Th17 cells.in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE),as well as its relationship with the activity of lupus.Methods By using H&E staining.double-label immunofluorescence.immunohistochemistry and confocal microscopy.the localization of Th17 cells was carried out in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).affected tissue of skin and lung obtained from 4 patients with active SLE and 2 normal human controls.Flow cytometry.reverse transcription PCR.ELISA were used to detect the proportion of Th17 cells in PBMCs,the mRNA expression of interleukin-17(IL-17)A and IL-17 F,and serum level of interleukin 17,respectively,in 50 consecutive adult patients with SLE and 15 normal human controls.Results Th17 cells were detected in PBMCs of patients with active SLE.and the fuorescence intensity of IL-17 was significantly higher in patients with active SLE than in normal human controls(127.6±20.5 vs 40.6±11.1,P＜0.001).Infiltrates of Th17 cells were noted in both skin and lung tissues of patients with active SLE.but not in those of normal human controls.The proportion of Th17 cells in PBMCs was increased in patients with active SLE.and the proportion positively correlated with SLE disease activity index(SLEDAI) (r=0.725,P＜0.01).Further more.a significant increase was observed in the mRNA expression of IL-17 A and IL-17 F and serum level of IL-17 in patients with active SLE compared with normal human controls.The amount of Th17 cells was positively correlated with the development of vasculitis.and it experienced a decrease with the remission of SLE.Conclusions A proliferation of Th17 cells is noted in patients with active SLE.which seems to closely correlated with the activity of SLE and may take part in the development of vasculitis in SLE.

Objective:To study the photoneutron radiation field caused by photonuclear reaction during the operation of high energy medical linac.Methods:Monte Carlo was used to simulate the photoneutron pollution of Clinic 2300CD medical electron accelerator in 15 MV X-ray mode. The photoneutron spectrum at different positions of the head and the variation in neutron ambient dose equivalent in different irradiation fields were investigated, and the dose distribution of photoneutron on the isocenter plane and the dose attenuation in the water model were analyzed.Results:When the collimator was closed, the average photoneutron energy at the lower surface of target, primary collimator, flattening filter and multi-leaf collimator was 1.08, 1.20, 0.35 and 0.30 MeV, respectively. The neutron ambient dose equivalent at the isocenter first increased and then decreased with the irradiation field expanding, reaching the maximum in about 30 cm × 30 cm irradiation field. With the increase in the depth of the measuring point in water phantom, the neutron fluent first increased and then decreased, while the neutron dose gradually decreased. In different irradiation fields, the photoneutron dose rate was almost close to the background when the depth of the water was 20 cm.Conclusions:By exploring the photoneutron spectrum and dose distribution characteristics of the high energy medical linac head, as well as the dose deposition mechanism of photoneutron in water phantom, this study provides data support for further research on the additional dose and secondary cancer effects on patients caused by photoneutron pollution from the high energy medical linac.

Sleep deprivation (SD) has a profound impact on the central nervous system, resulting in an array of mood disorders, including depression and anxiety. Despite this, the dynamic alterations in neuronal activity during sleep deprivation have not been extensively investigated. While some researchers propose that sleep deprivation diminishes neuronal activity, thereby leading to depression. Others argue that short-term sleep deprivation enhances neuronal activity and dendritic spine density, potentially yielding antidepressant effects. In this study, a two-photon microscope was utilized to examine the calcium transients of anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) neurons in awake SD mice in vivo at 24-hour intervals. It was observed that SD reduced the frequency and amplitude of Ca2+ transients while increasing the proportions of inactive neurons. Following the cessation of sleep deprivation, neuronal calcium transients demonstrated a gradual recovery. Moreover, whole-cell patch-clamp recordings revealed a significant decrease in the frequency of spontaneous excitatory post-synaptic current (sEPSC) after SD. The investigation also assessed several oxidative stress parameters, finding that sleep deprivation substantially elevated the level of malondialdehyde (MDA), while simultaneously decreasing the expression of Nuclear Factor erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 (Nrf2) and activities of Superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the ACC. Importantly, the administration of gallic acid (GA) notably mitigated the decline of calcium transients in ACC neurons. GA was also shown to alleviate oxidative stress in the brain and improve cognitive impairment caused by sleep deprivation. These findings indicate that the calcium transients of ACC neurons experience a continuous decline during sleep deprivation, a process that is reversible. GA may serve as a potential candidate agent for the prevention and treatment of cognitive impairment induced by sleep deprivation.

Objective:To study the value of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and coronary flow reserve (CFR) combined with coronary artery calcium score (CACS) in the diagnosis of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD).Methods:From January 2019 to December 2020, 96 confirmed or suspective CAD patients (65 males, 31 females; age: 30-81 years) who completed rest/stress MPI, CFR and CACS defection in Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Coronary angiography (CAG) was used as the diagnostic standard to calculate the sensitivity and accuracy of MPI, CFR and MPI/CFR combined with CACS in the diagnosis of CAD. The χ2 test was used to compare the diagnostic efficiency of different methods. Results:The diagnostic sensitivity of MPI was 76.06%(54/71), and the accuracy was 75.00%(72/96), while the sensitivity increased to 97.18%(69/71; χ2=13.67, P<0.001) and the accuracy increased to 87.50%(84/96; χ2=4.92, P=0.020) with significant differences after combined with CACS. The sensitivity and accuracy of CFR were 91.55%(65/71)and 87.50%(84/96), which increased to 97.18%(69/71; χ2=2.12, P=0.137) and 89.58%(86/96; χ2=0.21, P=0.411) with no significant differences after combined with CACS. The sensitivity of MPI in the diagnosis of three-vessel CAD was 70.00%(21/30), which increased to 100%(30/30; χ2=7.75, P=0.004) after combined with CACS; while the sensitivity of MPI combined with CACS in the diagnosis of single-vessel and double-vessel CAD were not significantly improved ( χ2 values: 3.29, 1.51, P values: 0.114, 0.416). Conclusion:The combination of MPI and CACS can significantly improve the diagnostic efficiency of CAD, contributed by the improvement of the diagnostic sensitivity in three-vessel disease; whereas the diagnostic efficiency of CFR for CAD is not significantly improved after combined with CACS.

Since the reform and opening up, a large number of migrant workers to enter into the mining enterprises of the town, due to poor working conditions and lack of awareness of labor protection, a large number of workers at that time were diagnosed with occupational diseases such as pneumoconiosis, the lack of effective treatment and compensation mechanisms, it faces many difficulties of life, health care, employment and marriage, becoming more vulnerable, need access to national and social support and assistance. Currently, the patient's occupation of social assistance there are some flaws, and for the growing demand for professional rescue patients, China is still not established specifically for the social assistance system of the patient career, but also lack of systematic research. The paper combing through social assistance in the form and content of the existing occupation for patients and found deficiencies and problems of the current social assistance vocational patient exists, and proposed a framework for the establishment of vocational social assistance system of the patient, specific measures and means.

OBJECTIVE: To understand the exposure of occupational hazards, occupational and mental health status of high-speed railway locomotive drivers. METHODS: A total of 150 male high-speed railway locomotive drivers from Nanchang Railway administration were selected as experimental group, and 80 male ordinary train drivers were selected as control group by using a judgment sampling method. The occupational disease hazard testing and occupational health examinations were conducted in drivers of these two groups. The mental health status survey was conducted using the Symptom Checklist 90(SCL-90). RESULTS: The noise, power frequency electric field, formaldehyde, benzene, toluene, xylene and carbon dioxide in all the work place of these two groups were in line with the national occupational health standards. The exposure noise intensity of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group [(70.5±3.7) vs(77.4±4.1) dB(A), P<0.05]. The detection rates of hypertension and chronic gastritis were higher in the experimental group(18.7% vs 34.7%, 26.2% vs 42.0%, P<0.05). The detection rate of high frequency hearing loss decreased in the experimental group compared with the control group(22.5% vs 10.7%, P<0.05). The total score of SCL-90 in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group [(169.5±6.1) vs(148.0±6.0) score, P<0.01]. The positive rate of psychological symptoms was higher in the experimental group than that of the control group(41.3% vs 23.8%, P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The concentration/intensity of occupational disease hazards in the workplace of high-speed railway locomotives drivers is within normal limit. The occupational health status of high-speed railway locomotive drivers is generally good, but attention should be paid to their occupational mental health hazards.
