The central nervous system (CNS) plays a key regulatory role in glucose homeostasis. In particular, the brain is important in initiating and coordinating protective counterregulatory responses when blood glucose levels fall. This may due to the metabolic dependency of the CNS on glucose, and protection of food supply to the brain. In healthy subjects, blood glucose is normally maintained within a relatively narrow range. Hypoglycemia in diabetic patients can increase the risk of complications, such as heart disease and diabetic peripheral neuropathy. The clinical research finds that the use of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has a positive effect on the treatment of hypoglycemia. Here the authors reviewed the current understanding of sensing and counterregulatory responses to hypoglycemia, and discuss combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine and the theory of iatrogenic hypoglycemia in diabetes treatment. Furthermore, the authors clarify the feasibility of treating hypoglycemia on the basis of TCM theory and CNS and have an insight on its clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of chronic cough in children aged 6-14 years. Methods The incidence of chronic cough in children aged 6-14 years in Qinhuangdao city was investigated by questionnaire. Results A total of 4 000 questionnaires were distributed, 3 785 of them were effectively recovered, with the recovery rate of 94.6%. The incidence of chronic cough in children aged 6-14 was 5.1% (194/3 785). The prevalence rates of boys and girls were 5.4% (101/1 859) and 4.8% (93/1 926), respectively, with no significant difference (χ2=0.641,P=0.873). The incidence rate of children in industrial town area 6.7% (64/955) was significantly higher than that in urban area 4.4% (85/1 917) and agricultural town 4.9% (45/913) (χ2=55.082,P=0.000). The risk factors showed that chronic cough was associated with long-term allergen exposure, allergic constitution, asthma, rhinitis, reflux esophagitis and other nasopharynx diseases (χ2=17.833,43.370,194.466,27.773,101.92,11.268,P =0.000). Regression model analysis showed that asthma, rhinitis and allergen long-term exposure were independent risk factors of chronic cough (Wald=15.352,10.174,12.625,12.659,P =0.000). Conclusion The incidence rate of children in industrial town is higher in Qinhuangdao City than those in other urban areas, 6~14 years old children. Asthma, rhinitis and allergen exposure are the main causes of chronic cough.

OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the effect of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on glucose and lipid metabolism in obese diabetic (db/db) mice.
METHODS:
db/db mice were randomized for treatment with saline or CLA mixture administered intragastrically. The changes in body weight, dietary intake, water intake, oral glucose tolerance, triglyceride and total cholesterol were recorded after the treatments. HE staining and oil red O staining were used to assess liver pathologies and fatty acid content. The expression levels of PPARα, PPARγ, CD36, CHREBP and SREBP-1c were detected using real-time PCR and Western blotting. HepG2 cells were treated with CLA and linoleic acid and the expressions of PPARα, ACC, P-ACC, and CD36 were detected; the level of acetyl-CoA in the cell supernatant was detected using ELISA.
RESULTS:
CLA treatment obviously reduced the dietary and water intake of db/db mice, effectively reduced the body weight and decreased serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels ( < 0.05). CLA significantly reduced fasting blood glucose, increased glucose tolerance, reduced the accumulation of lipid droplets in the liver and improved lipid metabolism in db/db mice. The mice showed significantly increased expression of PPARα ( < 0.05) and lowered CD36 expression ( < 0.001) in the liver after CLA treatment. Cellular experiments showed that CLA significantly up-regulated PPARα ( < 0.001) and P-ACC and decreased the expression of CD36 ( < 0.01). ELISA showed that acetyl-CoA was significantly up-regulated in the cells after CLA treatment ( < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONS
The mixture of two conjugated linoleic acid isomers can reduce fasting blood glucose, increase glucose tolerance and improve glycolipid metabolism in db/db mice by enhancing the expression of PPARα, increasing P-ACC and inhibiting CD36 expression.

【Objective】 To investigate the condition of confidential unit exclusion(CUE) in Guangzhou, so as to ensure blood safety. 【Methods】 The number of CUE donors, demographic characteristics of CUE donors, reasons for CUE, and response time of CUE after blood donation in Guangzhou from 2009 to 2022 were statistically analyzed. 【Results】 From 2009 to 2022, the response ratios of CUE was 0.006 2% (260/4 170 984) and the ratios had statistically significant difference between different years(P<0.05). For the response ratios of CUE, no statistically significant difference was noticed in gender and occupation (P>0.05), but statistically significant differences were found in age, number of blood donations, education background, and marital status (P<0.05). Blood donors aged 18~30 (0.007 3%, P<0.05) and first-time blood donors (0.010 8%, P<0.05) were the main groups of CUE. High risk sexual behavior (28.46%, 74/260) was the primary reason for CUE. The CUE response peak was within 72 hours after blood donation, and the response ratios within 24-72 hours after blood donation was the highest (68.46%, 178/260). 【Conclusion】 CUE is a crucial measure to ensure blood safety. Detailed pre-donation health consultations are suggested for blood donors aged 18-30 and first-time blood donors so as to better excluding high-risk blood donors. Strengthening the publicity of CUE response and process, registering and classifying the reasons for CUE are also important.
