Objective To observe the effect of Tongxinluo capsule combined with Jinlidas intervention on vascular endothelial fuction and blood glucose in the patients with Type 2 diabetes. Methods A total of 100 patients with Type 2 diabetes were randomly divided into treatment and control groups with 50 patients each. Both groups were received subcutaneous injection insulin, oral admistration of Simvastatin and Aspirin. And the treatment group were received Tongxinluo capsule and Jinlida sintervention based on the standard treatment. The changes of serum levels of FPG, 2hPG, HbAlc, VEGF, NO, ET-1 were observed before and after treatement. All the patients were treated for 12 weeks. Results After the treatment, the serum of FPG (7.03 ± 2.11 mmol/L vs. 8.09 ± 2.03 mmol/L, t=1.911), 2hPG (9.27 ± 2.03 mmol/L vs. 12.06 ± 3.54 mmol/L, t=1.946), HbAlc (6.98%± 1.58%vs. 8.06% ± 2.13%, t=2.013) were decreasd (P<0.05). Besides, VEGF (684.61 ± 84.37 ng/L vs. 514.28 ± 79.52 ng/L, t=2.136), NO (43.28 ± 6.40 ng/L vs. 34.64 ± 6.70 ng/L, t=2.097) of treatment group were siginificantly higher than the control group (P<0.05), while ET-1 (53.13 ± 7.24μmol/L vs. 60.09 ± 7.18μmol/L, t=2.271) were siginificantly lower (P<0.05). Conclusion Tongxinluo capsule combined with Jinlida sintervention could decreased the level Blood glucose and improve vascular endothelial fuction in the patients with Type 2 diabetes.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics of different nation nonHodgkin lymphoma (NHL)in Urumqi of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.MethodsFour hundred and sixty-six cases of NHL were collected.Their sections including HE and immunohistochemical staining were examined again for diagnosis and classification.ResultsAmong 466 cases NHL,B cell neoplasm was 369cases (79.2 ％) and T cell lymphoma was 97 cases (20.8 ％).193 cases (41.4 ％) occured in the lymph node and 273 cases (58.6 ％) extranodal lymphoma.The most common subtypes were diffuse large B-cell lymphoma,small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukaemia,extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosaassociated lymphoid tissue,NK/T cell lymphoma,peripheral T-cell lymphoma,follicular lymphoma.Tlymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) in the Uygur were higher than the Han [7.5 ％ (9/120) vs 1.3 ％ (4/308),x2 =11.276,P=0.001; 4.2 ％ (5/120) vs 2.3 ％ (7/308),x2 =1.137,P =0.286],and T/NK cell lymphoma in the Han was higher than the Uygur [7.1 (22/308) vs 3.3 ％ (4/120),x2 =2.196,P =0.138].There was no statistically significance between the Uygur and Han in different subtypes of B-NHL (P ＞0.05).ConclusionIn Urumqi aera,the incidence is higher in extranodal lymphoma than that in nodal.B-NHL is more in Urumqi area than that in other area in our country.There is no difference obviously for mobility B-NHL in the Uygur and Han,but T-LBL and ALCL in the Uygur are higher than those in the Han,and T/NK cell lymphoma in the Han is higher than that in the Uygur.It is suggested to confirm further whether the different associated with different nation and region.

Objective To assess the renal protective effects of triptolide treatment in type 2 diabetic rats and its possible mechanisms.Methods Wistar rats were randomized to receive following approach control (n=7),dia- betic model without treatment (n=7) and diabetic group treated with triptolide[200 ?g/(kg?d),n=7].Plasma glucose (PG),serum creatinine (Scr),total cholesterin (TC),triglyeride (TG),kidney mass (KM),index number of kidney hypertrophy (KM/body mass,KM/BM),and 24 hours urinary albumin (24 h UAL) were determined. The protein expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1),osteopontin (OPN) and ED-1 in renal tissue were determined by immunohistochemical technique.The mRNA expressions of MCP-1 and OPN in kidney tissue were assessed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results Elevated 24 h UAL was markedly attenuated by triptolide treatment [24 h UAL,triptolide:2.32?0.29 vs diabetic model group:3.89? 0.51 mg/mgCr,P

Objective To investigate the correlation of multidrug resistance gene 1 (MDR1),NR3C1 gene polymorphisms and clinical risk factors with efficacy,dependence,and resistance of glucocorticoid (GC) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).Methods Anti coagulation blood samples of 196 healthy controls and 105 IBD patients received GC therapy were collected.There were 62 ulcerative colitis (UC) and 43 Crohn's disease (CD) in the IBD patients.The number of GC sensitive,GC dependent and GC resistant of UC patients were 36,13 and 13,respectively,and those of CD patients were 24,11 and eight.GC refractoriness included GC dependence and resistance.The genotype of MDR1 C3435T and NR3C1 Bcl Ⅰ of all the subjects was detected by the restriction fragment length polymorphism-polymerase chain reaction (RFLP-PCR).The correlation between each genotype frequency,clinical features of patients with IBD and the efficacy of GC treatment was analyzed by Chisquare test,Fisher exact probability method or t test.Results Among UC patients,the disease course of GC refractory group and GC resistant group was longer than that of GC sensitive group ((6.660±1.523)years,(6.500±1.111) yearsvs (3.350±0.697) years,t=2.211,P=0.031; t=2.930,P=0.005).The serum level of C reaction protein (CRP) of GC refractory group was higher than that of GC sensitive group ((47.628±13.913) mg/Lvs (16.854±4.121) mg/L,t=2.121,P=0.047).The chronic relapse type was more common in GC refractory UC patients (Fisher exact probability method,P=0.035),and severe patients were more common in UC with GC resistance (Fisher exact probability method,P=0.021).The white blood cell count of GC resistant and GC refractory CD patient was lower than that of GC sensitive CD patients ((5.710 ± 0.604) ×109/L,(5.878±0.405) × 109/L vs (7.814 ±0.670) × 109/L,t=2.334,P=0.028; t=2.045,P=0.018).Patients with extraqntestinal manifestations was more common in CD with GC resistance (Fisher exact probability method,P=0.035).There was no statistically significant difference in the frequencies of MDR1 C3435T,NR3C1 Bcl Ⅰ genotypes,allelic genes and gene carrier among control group and GC sensitive dependent and resistant group of IBD patients.However,the frequency of MDR1 C3435T gene carrier was significantly different between GC sensitive group and GC refractory group,especially between GC sensitive group and GC resistance group (68.33％ vs 48.89％,x2 =4.051,P=0.044; 68.33％ vs 42.86％,x2 =4.274,P =0.039).Conclusions GC sensitivity of IBD patients with MDR1 C3435T loci T gene carrier was higher than that of IBD patients without T gene carrier.NR3C1 gene polymorphisms was not related with GC resistance and GC dependence.Compared with GC sensitive IBD patients,in GC resistant and GC dependent IBD pantient UC patients with long disease course,chronic relapse type,severe type,high level of CRP and CD patients with low white blood cell count and extra-intestinal manifestations were more common.

The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t=-4.983, P<0.01). The following entries:swallow, sensation, eating in public, dry mouth, sticky saliva, feel sick of the quality of life questionnaire of the observation group were higher than the control group while doing 33 friction of radiotherapy. All the differences were statistically significant (t=-3.873-5.130, P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions The bundles could effectively prevent and treat oral mucositis caused by chemoradiotherapy for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It could release the throat pain, anxiety and depression of the patients, as well as improve the quality of life to some extent.

Abstract: Objective　To find out the existing problems and provide reference for further improving the quality of report information by analyzing the report cards of COVID-19 and the positive report cards of primary screening reported in Ningxia. Methods　All COVID-19 case cards from 2020 to 2021 and initial screening positive cards were derived from the Chinese Information System for Disease Control and Prevention according to final review date. The timeliness of case reporting, timeliness of case review, completeness and accuracy of the case cards were analyzed. Results　In Ningxia, the first case of COVID-19 was reported on January 20, 2020, and as of December 31, 2021, 122 confirmed cases and 4 symptomatic infected cases were reported. In 2021, the timely reporting rate of COVID-19 was 98.00%, which increased by 8.24% compared with 2020 (90.54%). Compared with 2020, the average time limit for diagnosis to reporting of COVID-19 in 2021 was shortened by 83.12%; in 2021, the timely review rate of COVID-19 was 100.00%, which increased by 13.84% compared with 2020 (87.84%). Compared with 2020, the time from reporting to final review was shortened by 98.91%. In 2021, the timely rate of positive reports in COVID-19 in Ningxia was 90.00%, among which the timely rate of reports by county (district) nucleic acid detection institutions was the highest (92.31%), followed by municipal (91.67%) and autonomous region (81.82%). Conclusions　At the beginning of the epidemic in 2020, the timeliness of COVID-19 in Ningxia was poor, and through the implementation of measures such as technical training, supervision and inspection to continuously optimize the staffing of medical institutions and disease control institutions, the timeliness of reporting COVID-19 in Ningxia in 2021 was substantially improved, but there were still some weak links. In the future work, technical guidance and training should be carried out for weak links, and efforts should be made to improve the quality of reports.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the nystagmus during particle repositioning maneuver for posterior semicircular canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (PC-BPPV), and verify different pathogenesis of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).

METHODSThe chief complains, nystagmus during positioning test and particle repositioning maneuver (PRM) were recorded in detail from 66 PC-BPPV cases during Dec.2007 and Apr.2008, and verifying possible pathogenesis of BPPV was based on nystagmus.

RESULTSOf all 66 PC-BPPV cases, the four positions of PRM were found in 24 cases presented upward torsional nystagmus at the second or third position, 21 cases presented negative nystagmus except the first position, 7 cases presented intensity horizontal nystagmus during PRM and 14 cases presented downward nystagmus at the second or third position during PRM. Of all 66 cases, 78.8% of them were accord with canalithiasis and cupulolithiasis while the other may be related with otolith organ or nerve disease.

CONCLUSIONSBesides canalithiasis and cupulolithiasis, part of BPPV may be related with otolith organ or nerve disease.

OBJECTIVETo investigate whether the cholesteatoma from different positions have different biological characteristics.

METHODSThe expression of the Ki-67 and collagen IV in 19 specimens of cholesteatoma were stained immunohistochemically using the SP method, according to the origin of the specimens, include 7 cases from the epitympanum, 8 cases from tympanic sinus and 4 cases from the out acoustic canal. According to the severity of the inflammation in the perimatrix, the inflammation group included 7 cases, the non-inflammation group included 8 cases.

RESULTSThe average count was the same between the cholesteatoma from epitympanum and tympanic sinus. And the count of the cholesteatoma in the middle ear was also the same to the cholesteatoma from the out acoustic canal. But even from the same sample, the cholesteatoma from the positions with severe inflammation in the perimatrix count much higher, and the difference was statistically significant. Collagen IV had been found to localized in the basic membrane. In some specimens the staining of the collagen IV was not continuous.

CONCLUSIONSThe results suggested that it was the severity of inflammation in the perimatrix influenced the differences, but not the origins of the cholesteatoma.

Objective To analyze the relationship between the catheter to vein ratio and the formation of peripheral insertion of central venous catheter (PICC) related upper extremity deep venous thrombosis (PICC-UEDVT) in cases having undergone PICC in patients at intensive care unit (ICU) and further identify the best optimal ratio cut-off point to reduce the incidence of PICC-UEDVT.Methods A retrospective study was conducted, including 69 patients having undergone PICC with complete clinical data admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from August 2013 to December 2016; their ages were > 18 years old and catheter indwelling times were > 1 week; the patients' basic information, disease related laboratory parameters and catheter insertion situation were collected. According to the occurrence of PICC-UEDVT, they were divided into PICC-UEDVT group and non PICC-UEDVT group; the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of the catheter to vein ratio versus the incidence ofPICC-UEDVT was plotted to assess the optimal ratio to reduce the incidence of PICC-UEDVT.Results In the 69 patients, there were 7 patients in the PICC-UEDVT group and 62 patients in the non PICC-UEDVT group, the incidence of PICC-UEDVT being 10.14%. Four, 5 and 6 French (Fr) catheters were indwelled in 43, 23 and 3 cases respectively, and the range of catheter to vein ratio was 20% - 67%. The comparisons between PICC-UEDVT group and non PICC-UEDVT group in various aspects were as follows: the incidence of DVT in the PICC-UEDVT group was significantly higher than that in non PICC-UEDVT group [42.9% (3/7) vs. 6.5% (4/62)], the rate of using vasopressor drugs [57.14% (4/7) vs. 17.74% (11/62)], D-dimer level [mg/L: 9.0 (3.0, 12.3) vs. 1.8 (1.0, 3.6)], patients of indwelling 5Fr catheter [71.4% (5/7) vs. 29.0% (18/62)] and the percentage of patientsapplying catheter to vein ratio 45%-67% [57.14% (4/7) vs. 17.74% (11/62)] in PICC-UEDVT group were all higher than those in the non PICC-UEDVT group, the differences being statistically significant (allP < 0.05). ROC analysis showed that the catheter to vein ratio 44% was the optimal cut off or critical point, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) at that point was 0.755, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.554-0.955, sensitivity = 71.4% and specificity = 79.0%; compared with the patients using 45%-67% catheter to vein ratio, the incidence of PICC-UEDVT was 6.182 times higher than those using the ratio 20%-44% [odds ratio (OR) = 6.182, 95%CI = 1.208-31.634,P = 0.036]; however, there was no significant difference in incidence of PICC-UEDVT between 20%-32% and 33%-44% (P = 1.000).Conclusion It is found that the 44% catheter to vein ratio was the optimal critical point to reduce the incidence of PICC-UEDVT, possessing relatively high sensitivity and specificity; applying <44% catheter to vein ratio can decrease the risk of PICC-UEDVT occurrence in patients at ICU.
