Objective:To study the diagnostic value of combined detection of IAA,ICA and GADA in the classification of diabetes mellitus.Methods:30 cases of patients with type 1 diabetes who were treated in our hospital from June 2015 to June 2016 were selected as A group,60 cases of patients with type 2 diabetes were selected as B group,50 cases of healthy people were selected as C group.The IAA,ICA and GADA of the three groups were detected by ELISA,and the positive rate of the three groups were compared.Results:The fasting glucose of A group was (10.12± 3.68) mmol/L,B group was (11.23± 3.26) mmol/L,A group and B group were significantly higher than that of C group (P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between A group and B group (P＞0.05);the positive rates of GADA,ICA and IAA in A group and B group were significantly higher than those in C group (P＜0.05),and the positive rates of GADA,ICA and IAA in A group were significantly higher than those in B group (P＜0.05);the sensitivity and specificity of combined detection of IAA,ICA and GADA in type 2 and type 1 diabetes mellitus were significantly higher than that in the single test (P＜0.05).Conclusions:The combined detection of IAA,ICA and GADA has a high diagnostic value in the classification of diabetes mellitus,which is worth clinical application.

Objective To seak a available way of evaluating morphology of filtering blebs after trabeculectomy is very important for forecasting the successful rate of surgery.At the present time,filtering blebs were commonly evaluated by using the slim lamp microscope,but it did not to exactly reflect the filtering passage.This study aimed to evaluate the morphology of filtering blebs after trabeculectomy with anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT).MethodsThis was a prospective study.Sixty-nine eyes of 53 patients who had previously undergone trabeculectomy were selected in this study,including 25 eyes with open-angle glaucoma,38 eyes with close-angle glaucoma and 6 eyes with secondary glaucoma.These filtering blebs were classified into functional type (typeⅠandⅡ) and nonfunction type (type Ⅲ and Ⅳ) under the slit lamp microscope based on the van Buskirk grading scales.Intra-bleb morphology and structure were characterized as diffuse-like,cystic-like,encapsulating-like and flatten-like by AS-OCT in reference to the Leung method.The consistency between the two methods was evaluated by the Chi-Square test.Written informed consent was obtained from all the patients before surgery.ResultsThe average follow-up time was 10.78±11.0 months.All the patients finished the examination during the follow-up duration.The average intraocular pressure was(14.9±4.5)mmHg during the observation period.There were 38/69 (55.1%) functioning blebs and 31/69 (44.9%) non-function blebs under the slim lamp microscope.AS-OCT imaging showed diffuse-like blebs in 26 eyes (15.9%),cystic-like blebs in 11 eyes (27.5%),encapsulating-like blebs in 19 eyes (18.8%) and flatten-like in 13 eyes with the intraocular pressure of(13.16±3.77)mmHg,(15.36±2.92)mmHg,(15.77±5.07)mmHg and (16.62±5.33)mmHg,respectively,showing a significant difference among them (F=3.32,P＜0.05).These patterns of different OCT presented a good consistency with the clinical outcome (χ~2=0.03,P=0.86).ConclusionAS-OCT allows the observation of filtering blebs after glaucoma surgery.It is probably to visualize the internal structure of filtering bleb and deep sclerectomy.Functional and dysfunctional filtering blebs delivery gives different OCT patterns.This could be a new way to assess the postoperative healing process.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of full volume three-dimensional echocardiography(FV3DE) for quantifying the left ventricular volume in healthy fetuses. Methods Two hundred and twenty-two normal fetuses with gestational ages between 20 and 40 weeks were investigated. Full volume three-dimensional, two-dimensional (2D) and M-mode images were acquired by Philips iE33 system and data was processed offline using QLAB analysis software. Left ventricular end-systolic volume(ESV) and end-diastolic volume ( EDV) were measured using semiautomated border detection echocardiographic techniques, and compared with 2D biplane Simpson's method and M-mode Teichholz formula. Results Thirty-six fetuses with poor three-dimensional images and 5 twin pregnancies were excluded,the study subjects consisted of 181 singleton fetuses. The highest concordance correlation ( r =0.987 for EDV, r =0.988 for ESV) P <0. 001) was noted between 2D biplane Simpson's and FV3DE-derived values with a small bias (0. 332 ml for EDV,0. 135 ml for ESV). The Bland-Altman analysis showed that FV3DE had the best reproducibility than M-mode Teichholz formula and 2D biplane Simpson's method. Intra- and interobserver error of EDV were 2.85% and 4.22% for FV3DE,8.37% and 8.98% for 2D biplane Simpson's rule,30. 63% and 54. 70% for M-mode Teichholz formula. Intra- and interobserver error of ESV were 2.34% and 6. 14% for FV3DE,6. 26% and 11.7% for 2D biplane Simpson's rule,43.06% and 66.03% for M-mode Teichholz formula. Conclusions FV3DE is a novel technique that can be more accurate than conventional methods in quantification of fetal left ventricular volumes, it may provide new insight into evolving fetal cardiac structure and function.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of ABI-1 gene knockdown upon the proliferation and migration of human gastric cancer cell NCI-N87 in vitro. MethodsNCI-N87-ABI-I-ShRNA cell model was successfully constructed and validated by Real-time PCR and Western blot. The cellular morphous and skeleton, proliferative and migrative potents, and also AKT expression were compared between NCI-N87-ABI-1-ShRNA and its parents by immunofluorental staining, CCK-8 assay, transwell chamber and Western blotting.ResultsCCK-8 assay showed there was no significant difference in the proliferation rates at different time points between the NCI-N87-Vector and NCI-N87 cells while the proliferation rates at the time points of 36 and 48 hours of the NCI-N87-ABI-1-ShRNA were significantly lower than the NCI-N87( t =2. 85and 4. 166, P ＜ 0. 05 ). Transwell assay showed that migrated cell number were 66 ± 8, 65 ± 8 and 30 ± 4,respectively, and there was significant difference between the NCI-N87-ABI-1-ShRNA and NCI-N87 cells (t =9. 550,P ＜0. 05). Finally, ABI-1- knock-down altered the cellular morphoos and skeleton of 90％NCI-N87 cells and inhibited p-AKT expression.ConclusionABI-1 inhibits proliferation and migration of NCI-N87 cells in vitro probably by PI3K/AKT pathway.

Objective To investigate the value of the intraoperative real-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (RT 3D-TEE) in therapeutic application of surgery for the mitral valve prolapse.Methods Thirty-five patients underwent surgical treatment were diagnosed as mitral valve prolapse by 2-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography (2D-TTE),with or without ruptured chordae tendineae.RT 3D-TEE was performed for assessing the segment of prolapse and its complications before cardiopulmonary bypass and after heart resuscitation respectively.The echocardiographic results were compared with the surgical findings.Results The accuracy of RT 3D-TEE to identify segments with prolapse was significantly higher than that of 2D-TTE (91.4％ vs 82.9％,P =0.003).RT 3D-TEE was more accurate than 2D-TTE for identifying ruptured chordae tendineae,vegetation and thrombus since higher sensitivity,specificity and Youden index.Among all 35 patients,valvuloplasty was performed in 28 cases,whereas,only 7 cases underwent replacement of prosthetic valves.Three patients were benefited by accurate evaluation of therapeutic effect using RT 3D-TEE in time.ConclusionsIntraoperative RT 3D-TEE can be used to provide “ surgical view”,acquired adequate valuable information of mitral valve,and more reliable functional and anatomical assessment of the mitral valve components and its geometry.Suitable surgical intervention can be designed for improving outcomes of patients.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment and its effectiveness of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasm Ⅲ(VIN Ⅲ).Methods Clinical data, including age of the patients, mode of surgical operation, pathological features, results of post-operation follow-up, of 12 cases of VIN Ⅲ admitted to the Peking Union Medical College Hospital(PUMCH)during January 1984 to December2006 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Mean age of the 12 cases was 40.3(ranging from 23 to 56)years.All the patients had symptoms of vulvar itching, three with VUlVar ulcer and one with vulvar pain.There was single neoplasm focus in two cases and multiple focuses in 10 cases, five cases with neoplasm in other sites and five with human papilloma virus(HPV)infection.All the 12 patients received surgical operation, three with simple vulvectomy(one with some residue at perianal incisal edge)and other nine with lumpectomy(four with some residue at incisal edge).Eight cases were followed-up for 9.0 months in average(ranging 1～22 months)after surgical operation, including three with some residue at incisal edge.Relapse was found in two cases three and 11 months after operation, respectively, who received re-operation, including one with residue at incisal edge and one without residue.Conclusions It is necessary to attach more importance to biopsy for the cases of suspected VIN Ⅲ, as well as colposcopic diagnosis for those with vaginal or vulvar neoplasm and testing for HPV infection.Surgical operation, including simple vulvectomy and lumpectomy with or without adjunctive measures, are main treatment for patients of VIN Ⅲ and follow-up is also important for all those with VIN Ⅲ.

Background The condition of the sclera is associated with many ocular diseases.The measurement of human scleral thickness in vivo is helpful for us to understand the features of the sclera and related diseases.Objective The present study was to measure the anterior sclera thickness(AST) in patients with senile cataract and to analyze the relationship among AST and other associated ocular parameters.Methods This study was approved by the Ethic Commission of First Hospital of Peking University.Written informed consent was obtained from each individual prior to examination.One hundred and five senile cataract patients were recruited in this study.Central corneal thickness (CCT),corneal curvature (CCV) and axial length were measured using ultrasonic pachymeter,keratometer,and A-scan unit,respectively.The AST was measured at 2 mm posterior to the scleral spur in the temporal meridian using ultrasound biomicroscope (UBM).The differences of CCT,CCV,ocular axial length and AST between bilateral eyes and the different sexes were compared by the Paired test and independent sample t test.The correlations among various parameters were assessed by the Pearson linear correlation analysis.The differences of CCT and AST among different axial length groups were evaluated by one-way ANOVA.Results No significant differences were found in the CCT,CCV,axial length and AST between bilateral eyes (t =0.584,P =0.561 ; t =1.161,P =0.248 ; t =0.140,P =0.889 ; t =0.342,P =0.773).Temporal AST at 2 mm posterior to the sclera spur was (0.589 ±0.051)mm in the right eyes.An insignificant decline in CCT was found in the male group compared with the female group (right eyes:t =0.469,P =0.641 ; left eyes:t =0.465,P =0.643).However,compared with the female group,the increase of axial length,reduction of the mean CCV value and enhancement of the mean AST were observed(right eyes:all P＜0.01 ;left eyes:all P＜0.01).CCV showed a negative correlation with ocular axial length (r =-0.50,P＜0.01),but no significant correlation was found among age,CCT,ocular axial length and AST(P＞0.05).No remarkable differences were found in CCT and AST among the various axial length groups (CCT:F =0.998,P=0.372;AST:F=1.919,P=0.383).Conclusions In senile cataract patients,correlation is not found between AST and CCT;the increase of axial length is not associated with the thinning of the eyeball wall to a certain extent.Differences exist in some ocular parameters between different sexes.
