The effect of metabolic syndrome on patients with pre-diabetes in regard to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (CCVD) was investigated.The subjets with pre-diabetes were divided into metabolic syndrome (MS) group and non-MS.Follow-up after the baseline survey,the new-onset cardiovascular events of patients were collected.The incidence of CCVD in the MS group was 5.66％,being higher than 1.88％ in non-MS group (P＜0.05).After factors being corrected,compared with the non-MS group,the relative risk (RR) of CCVD in MS group was 2.616 (95％ CI 1.328-5.153).Compared to only 1 component of MS patients,the risks of CCVD in MS component 2,≥3 patients were increased by 29％ (HR =1.29) and 62％ (HR =1.62).Metabolic syndrome may increase the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in pre-diabetes populations.The occurrence of CCVD and MS content showed a dose-dependent relationship.

Objective By means of control test,to compare the surgical trauma and perioperative recovery between video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS) and conventional thoracotony for lobectomy.Methods Eightysix non-small cell lung cancer patients who had undergone operations from April 2010 to April 2011 were chosen.According to operative mcthods,the patients were divided into two groups:video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery group(VATS) and open chest group(OT).The protein and hormone level of serum Cortisol(Cor),growth hormone (GH),triiodothyronine (T3),tetraiodothyronine (T4),C-reactive protein (CRP) were selected as indexes to investigate the surgical trauma on non-small cell lung cancer patients.The duration of operation,quantity of lymph node dissection,chest tube duration,postoperative hospital stay,postoperative complications were chosen as indexes to measure operation result and perioperative recovery.Results Under the condition that patients undergone the same operation level(lobectomy + Systemic lymph node dissection),there was no ststistical significance in preoperative level of serum Cor,GH,T3,T4,CRP.The postoperative concentrations of serum Cor,GH,T3,T4,CRP on the 1 d,2 d,3 d and 7 d were lower in VATS group,and there were obvious statistical significance(P ＜0.01).And there were obvious statistical significance in duration of operation (P ＜ 0.01),postoperative hospital stay(P ＜ 0.01),quantity of lymph node dissection (P =0.477).There were no obvious statistical significance in chest tube duration (P =0.508),postoperative complications (P =0.787).Conclusions VATS lobectomy is able to achieve a same result for radical treatment outcone and safety to routine open chest lobectomy in patients.Compared witt routine open chest lobectomy,VATS lobectomy has less surgical trauma,much rapid recovery,it should be recommended for patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the expression of epidermal growth factor-like domain 7 (EGFL-7) in brain tis?sue of diabetes mellitus (DM) rats, and the intervene effect of amioguanidine and baicalein thereof. Methods Forty-eight SD rats were randomly divided into following four groups:control group, diabetic group, aminoguanidine group and baicalein group (n=12 for each group). The control group received only pelleted food and water. Diabetic group, aminoguanidine group and baicalein group were given high fat and sugar diet in combination with small dose of intraperitoneal injection of strepto?zotocin to establish the diabetic model. And then aminoguanidine group and baicalein group were given aminoguanidine and baicalein 150 mg/(kg · d) through oral gavaging. Diabetic group and control group were given equivalent saline through oral gavaging. After 16-week treatment, the expression of EGFL-7 proteins in rat brain was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting methods. Results Results of immunohistochemistry and Western blotting assay showed that the ex?pression of EGFL-7 was significantly increased in diabetic group, aminoguanidine group and baicalein group compared with that of control group (P<0.01). When compared with diabetic group, the expression of EGFL-7 was significantly decreased in aminoguanidine group and baicalein group (P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the EGFL-7 expression be?tween aminoguanidine group and baicalein group (P>0.05). Conclusion EGFL-7 may play an important role in cerebral vascular hyperplasia and remodeling of diabetic rats. Aminoguanidine and baicalein restrained cerebral vessel growth by re?ducing the expression of EGFL-7.
