Objective To investigate the effects of Metformin on serum proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9(PCSK9)level in patients with type 2 diabetes(T2DM). Methods 48 healthy people with normal glucose tolerance were selected as the controls (NGT group). 93 newly diagnosed T2DM were randomized to Metformin treated group (Met,n= 47 )and Glipizide treated group (Gli,n=46).Serum PCSK9 was measured by ELISA in all participants. After treatment,the changes of serum PCSK9 were observed in Met group and Gli group. Results Serum PCSK9 levels in Met group and Gli group were higher than NGT group(P<0. 01). PCSK9 level was positively correlated with FPG,HbA1 c, HOMA-IR,FIns,TC,LDL-C,TG,hsC-RP,TNF-αand BMI (r= 0. 578,0. 638,0. 556,0. 610,0. 578, 0. 592,0. 589,0. 638,0. 561,0. 552;P<0. 05 or P<0. 01),and negatively correlated with HDL-C(r=-0. 614,P<0. 01). The levels of PCSK9 significantly decreased after treatment with Metformin(P<0. 05). PCSK9 levels had no significant differences before and after treatment with Glipizide. Multiple regression analysis showed that TNF-αand HOMA-IR were independent related factors of PCSK9. Conclusion T2DM patients have high levels of serum PCSK9 which can be decreased by Metformin.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the value of blood lactic acid in elder pneumonia patients and indicate its relation with the classification of peverity of patients.METHODS Seventy-five elder patients with pneumonia and 50 younger patients were divided into sepsis group and no sepsis group.The sepsis group was divided into MODS and non-MODS sub groups.The level of blood lactic acid,CRP and PaO2 in them were measured.RESULTS The incidence of sepsis was remarkably higher in the elder pneumonia patients group than in the younger one.There was a significent difference of the blood lactic acid between them((1.74?0.33)mmol/L vs(1.35?0.66)mmol/L,P

OBJECTIVE To investigate pulmonary fungal infection spectrum and its resistance in older COPD patients with mechanical ventilation.METHODS Retrospective study were performed in 67 cases of COPD patients with mechanical ventilation treatment who were admitted to our ICU from Jan 2004 to Doc 2007.Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was cultured,differentiation and antifungal susceptilibity testing were taken.RESULTS Seventy-eight fungi strains were cultured in 78 cases,among them,41 strains were Candida albicans(52.56%),14 of C.tropicalis,9 of C.krusei,5 of C.parapsilosis,7 of yeast-like fungi and 2 of Aspergillus.CONCLUSIONS There were increasing fungal infection rate in older COPD patients with mechanical ventilation and C.albicans is still the most frequent type.The resistance to triazole antifungal drug is also increasing.

Repeat cervical cytologic testing,human papillomavirus(HPV)testing and immediate colposcopy are currently the most general managements in women with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance(ASCUS)result.However,the efficacy of these three methods is hampered by strong subjectivity,high false negative and positive rates.With the development of the aetiology of cervical cancer,there is good evidence that biomarkers for persistent HPV infection,HPV integration,instability of host genes and malignancy triage ASCUS more objectively and efficiently.The three-dimensional multiparameter biomarker-based detection may be the predominant method for the triage of women with abnormal cervical cancer screening result.

Objective To investigate the changes of plasma bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4) levels in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and rosuvastatin intervention effect on BMP-4 level.Methods Fifty-two patients with CHD and 35 health people were enrolled in this study as CHD group and control group.ELISA method was used to detect the concentration of plasma BMP-4.Analyzed the relationship between plasma BMP-4 and blood lipids,flow-mediated dilation (FMD),nitric oxide (NO),cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2),malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD).And observed the changing of plasma BMP-4 before and after rosuvastatin intervention.Results Plasma BMP-4 level in CHD patients was (7.53 ± 1.20) μg/L,higher than that of control group ((3.81 ± 0.79) μ g/L,t =3.541,P =0.006).After rosuvastatin treatment,plasma BMP-4 level in CHD patient was decreased from (7.53 ± 1.20) μg/L to (5.40± 0.98) μg/L (t =1.436,P =0.001).Plasma BMP-4 level was positively correlated with COX-2,MDA,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,total cholesterol (r =0.395,0.350,0.274,0.288 respectively,P ＜ 0.01 or P ＜0.05).But,it was negatively correlated with NO,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol,SOD,FMD (r =-0.291,-0.253,-0.476,-0.320 respectively,P ＜0.01 or P ＜0.05).COX-2,SOD and FMD were independent risk factors of plasma BMP-4 in patients with CHD.Conclusion Oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction are in patients with CHD.Rosuvastatin treatment can remarkably reduce plasma BMP-4 level,alleviate vascular endothelium injury induced by oxidative stress and improve endothelial function in patients with CHD.

Objectives To clarify the differential diagnostic value for iron deficiency anemia (IDA)and anemia of chronic disease(ACD)with analysis method of multiple parameters.Methods The serum concentrations of iron parameters (SI,TIBC,TF,SF and sTfR),inflammatory index(IL-1,IL-6,TNF-β),CRP and hepcidin were detected in patients with IDA and ACD by biochemical method and ELISA respectively.Results In the differential diagnosis of IDA versus ACD,the SF (98.6 versus 6.0,P=0)and sTfR/logSF[(13.1-±-4.4) versus (27.6 ± 16.5),P=0.002] had clinical value for the differential diagnosis.Inflammatory factors level was increased in two groups,only the difference in CRP between IDA and ACD showed a statistical significance.The hepcidin had the clinical value in differential diagnosis for single disease diagnosis of IDA and ACD and for differential diagnosis between IDA and ACD [(144.6 ±-1.9) versus (86.5-±-3.1),P＜ 0.05].Correlation analysis showed that the sTfR/logSF had a significantly negative correlation with SI(P=0.002),a significantly positive correlation with TIBC and TRF,and no significant correlation with inflammatory factors.The hepcidin had significantly positive correlation with IL-6 and TNF-β,and a significantly negative correlation with SI.The positive correlation was observed between sTfR/logSF and Hepcidin(r=0.376,P=0.005).Conclusions Analysis method of multiple parameters could make a differential diagnosis of ACD in the elderly.

Objective To explore the level of angiopoietin‐like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) in patients with early chronic kidney disease (CKD ) in diabetes and the influence of pioglitazone on the level. Methods 92healthypeoplewithnormalglucosetolerancewereselectedasthecontrols(NCgroup).89 newly diagnosed T2DM were selected (T2DM group ). 90 cases of CKD group were divided into pioglitazone (PGZ) and glimepiride (GLI) treated subgroups ,45 cases in each subgroup. After treatment , serum ANGPTL4 levels were observed in CKD group. Results There were significant differences in serum ANGPTL4 levels among NC ,T2DM and CKD groups [(34.8 ± 4.75) vs (31.1 ± 3.65) vs (27.1 ± 3.52)ng/ml ,P<0.05 or P<0.01]. ANGPTL4 level was positively correlated with SOD ,TG (r=0.635 , 0.526 ,P< 0.05 or P< 0.01) ,and negatively correlated with BMI ,FPG ,HbA1c ,hsC‐RP ,UAlb/Cr , VEGF ,FIns ,HOMA‐IR (r= -0.502 ,-0.624 ,-0.542 ,-0.520 ,-0.538 ,-0.566 ,-0.576 ,-0.509 ,P< 0.05 or P < 0.01 ). In PGZ subgroup after treatment ,ANGPTL4 levels were significantly increased and UAlb/Cr significantly decreased [(31.51 ± 3.87 ) vs (27.60 ± 3.58 )ng/ml ,P < 0.05 ;(88.50 ± 8.90 ) vs (116.20 ± 10.30 )mg/24 h ,P < 0.01 ]. In GLI subgroup after treatment ,there were no significant difference in FPG and HbA1 c as compared with PGZ subgroup but ANGPTL4 levels have no significant differences after treatment ,and UAlb/Cr decreased [(27.20 ± 3.54 ) vs (26.60 ± 3.48 )ng/ml ,P > 0.05 ;(99.70 ± 12.80 ) vs (122.40 ± 13.10 )mg/24 h ,P < 0.05]. HbA1 c ,FIns ,UAlb/Cr were the independent related factors influencing ANGPTL4 of CKD patients. Conclusion Serum ANGPTL4 has a lower level in CKD patients. PGZ is effective in treating CKD. This role is associated with the increase of serum ANGPTL4.
