Genome-wide association studies ( CWAS) use high-throughout genotyping technologies to investigate the relation of hundreds of thousands of gene markers(genotype) with clinical conditions and measurable traits (phenotype). Type 2 diabetes mellitus results from the interaction of environmental factors with genetic variants. Many progresses have been acquired from GWAS. New gene regions have been discovered to be involved in the development and function of islet (3-cells, which provides new strategies for the etiology investigation, prevention, and treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To summariza the clinical and histological features of linear cutaneous lupus erythematosus (LCLE).Methods Six cases of LCLE were analyzed retrospectively.Results LCLE was often clinically characterized by unilateral.zonal or linear,dark-erythematous patches with telangiectasia,and some lesions were covered with adherent Scales.Histologically,there were patchy perivascular and periadnexal lymphoid inflammatory infiltrate occurring in the superficial and deep dermis.Some cases were pathologically manifested by parakeratosis of superficial dermis,follicular plugging and hydropic degeneration of the basal layer of the epidermis,which was characteristic of discoid lupus erythematosus.The preferred treatment was chloroquine for LCLE.Low dose of corticosteroids were recommended for widespread lesions,especially for those pathologically manifested by lymphocyte infiltrates in the lower dermis and fat tissue.Conclusion The diagnosis of LCLE should be based on clinical and histopathological manifestations.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of Compound duzhenggan jiegu plaster for external use on the healing of closed distal radius fracture. METHODS:68 cases of closed distal radial fracture were randomly assigned into treatment group(34 cases) and control group (34 cases). Treatment group was treated with Compound duzhenggan jiegu plaster for external use,and control group was treated with Dieda pills for external use. The changes of X-ray score,BMD and serum ALP content were com-pared between 2 groups after 30 d and 60 d treatment. RESULTS:In 2 groups,there were statistically significant difference in X-ray score,BMD and serum ALP content between 30 d and 60 d treatment(P<0.01). After 60 d treatment,there were statistical-ly significant difference in X-ray score,BMD and serum ALP content between 2 groups(P<0.01 or P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Compound duzhenggan jiegu plaster for external use in the treatment of closed radius distal fracture can promote the increase of BMD and serum ALP content,improve fracture repair and healing,shorten the healing time. The mechanism should be further re-searched.

Objective: To analyze the relationship between meteorological factors and the number of daily heart failure (HF) patients for emergency room (ER) visit at Fengxian district of Shanghai in order to provide the experience for prevention and control of HF morbidity. Methods: Daily number of HF patients treated in ER of our hospital from 2012-01 to 2014-12 with corresponding meteorological, air pollution data at the same period were collected and analyzed by Spearman correlation study and multiple stepwise regression analysis. Results:①The differences of temperature, humidity, air pressure at 24-, 48-hour before and 48-hour after ER visit were positively related to the number of HF patients; the number of HF patients was signiifcantly related to the differences of temperature and air pressure at 48-hour before ER visit,P<0.001.②Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that the most affecting meteorological factor for ER visit of HF patients was the daily lowest temperature,P<0.05, the second factor was the daily average relative humidity,P<0.05. Conclusion: Radical changes of temperature, relative humidity and air pressure elevated the number of HF patients for ER visit; daily lowest temperature and decreased relative humidity were the important factors for elevating the number of HF patients for ER visit.

Objective To test the effect and safety of′cocktail′wet compression on alleviate the swelling arm after the inter‐vention through the radial artery .Methods Patients whose arm were swollen after the intervention through radial artery were di‐vided into two groups (experiment group ,47 patients vs .control group ,46 patients) .The experiment group adopt the′cocktail′wet compress plus traditional therapy (including elevate and immobile the swelling arm);the control group only use the traditional ther‐apy .The levels of pain ,swelling index and the number of the blister were compared between two groups .Results None of the limbs necrosis was observed in two groups .The level of pain(2 .62 ± 0 .86 vs .5 .46 ± 1 .02) ,swelling index (3 .3% ± 2% vs .5 .8% ± 3% ) of the arm ,and the number of blister (0 vs .4) in experiment group were lower than in the control group (P<0 .05) .Conclusion The bundle of therapy strategy which named'cocktail'wet compress can lessen the swelling of the arm induced by intervention through radial artery ;it is both safe and effective thus deserves widely application .

The correlation between the expression of COX-2 and p53 protein in basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of eyelid and apoptosis was investigated. Specimens of BCC were collected from 40 cases (aged 28-68 y) at the Department of Pathology, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, and Department of Pathology, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University during from 1999 to 2006. Five specimens of paracancerous tissues served as control group. Immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the expression of COX-2 and p53 in the tissues. The average absorbance (A) and the average positive area rate of COX-2 and p53 protein were measured by image analysis. The positive area rate of COX-2 and p53 protein was analyzed by linear correlation analysis. It was found that COX-2 and p53 proteins were highly expressed in BCC of eyelid, and weakly expressed in paracancerous tissues. Image analysis revealed that the expression of COX-2 and p53 proteins in BCC of eyelid was significantly higher than that in paracancerous tissues (P<0.01). Spearman rank correlation analysis demonstrated a positive correlation between the expression of COX-2 and p53 (r=0.113, P=0.421). It was concluded that COX-2 can increase the expression of p53 protein, therefore suppressing apoptosis.
