Objective To compare efficacy of two intensive therapies:continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion(CSⅡ) and multiple subcutaneous insulin infusion (MSⅡ) for treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods 60 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were randomly divided into 2 groups. Patients in CSⅡ group were treated by insulin (Novolin R) through a infusion pump. Patients in MSⅡ group were treated by Novolin R before meals (3 times a day) and Novolin N at bedtime. Blood glucose was monitored the whole day before and after treatment. Time required for blood glucose to reach the standard level, insulin dosage and hypoglycemia incidence were compared between the 2 groups before and after treatment. Results Both of the 2 therapeutic methods effectively controlled blood glucose (P<0.05). However, the 2 groups had significant difference in terms of the time required for blood glucose to reach the standard level ( 3.6 ± 1.2 d vs. 9.4 ± 3.2 d, P < 0. 01 ), daily insulin consumption (35.2 ± 8.5 u vs. 43.2 ± 10. 1 u, P <0. 01 ) and hypoglycemia incidence (2. 1% vs.9.7%, P <0.01 ). Conclusions CSⅡ and MSⅡ are effective for treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. CSⅡ is superior to MSⅡ due to its advantages of quick response, safety, and less insulin consumption.

Objective To evaluate the association of apM1 gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Chinese population. Methods Odds ratios (OR) of apM1 gene SNP distribution were analyzed. The Meta-analysis software (RevMan 4.3.1) was employed for summarizing the studies,calculating the pooled OR and its 95% CI and testing the overall effects. Egger's test and fail-safe number for P=0.05 (Nfs<,0.05>) were performed for evaluating the publication bias. The sensitivity analysis by different effect models and sample sizes were employed for the reliability of Meta-analysis. Results Nine literatures were obtained, apM1 gene SNP45 showed remarkable heterogeneity among the studies (P<0.10). Sub-group analysis revealed that the discrepancy based on southern Chinese individuals was the main source of the total heterogeneity.The distribution frequencies of apM1 gene SNP45G, SNP45GG, SNP276G and SNP276GG were significantly higher in Chinese type 2 diabetes mellitus group than those in NGT group (P<0.05). Their pooled OR and 95% C/were 1.50[1.12,2.02], 2.15[1.53, 3.02],1.23[1.03, 1.46] and 1.26[1.00,1.59], respectively (all P<0.05). The distribution of apM1 gene SNP45TG and SNP276GT between type 2 diabetes mellitus and normal glucose tolerance group revealed no difference among these studies. The results of publication bias diagnostics and sensitivity analysis accounted for the reliability and stability of this Meta-analysis. Conclusion apM1 gene SNPs are strongly associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Chinese population. SNP45G and SNP276G seem to be risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To investigate the effects of liraglutide on gene expression related to cholesterol metabolism in ApoE-/-mice with adiponectin deficiency. Methods Thirty six ApoE-/-mice fed with the high-fat diet were subdivided into four groups. One group was given 100 μl(1×109PFU) of adenoviral pAd-U6-GFP(GFP group, n=6). The second group received 100 μl of adenoviral pAd-U6-Acrp30(ADI group, n=10). The third group was given 100 μl of adenoviral pAd-U6-Acrp30 and liraglutide(HEA group, n=10) and the fourth group was given only 100 μl sterile saline(HF group, n=10). Insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism were assessed by the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp technique using 3-[3H] glucose as a tracer. Plasma adiponectin level was evaluated using a commercially available ELISA kit. The mRNA expressions of genes involved in cholesterol metabolism were measured by quantitative realtime PCR. Results Fasting blood glucose(FBG), free fatty acids(FFA), total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, adiponectin, and fasting plasma insulin(FINS) in ADI mice were significantly higher than those in the other groups(P<0.01), while high density lipoprotein cholesterol was significantly lower(P<0.05). During the clamp, glucose infusion rate(GIR) in ADI group was significantly lower than the other groups(P<0.01), and hepatic glucose production(HGP) significantly higher in ADI group(P<0.01). The mRNA expressions of INSIG2 and LDLR in ADI group were significantly down-regulated in HEA group(P<0.01 or P<0.05), while HMGCR and SREBP-2 were significantly up-regulated in HEA group(P<0.01 or P<0.05). Conclusions Liraglutide regulates a number of genes involved in cholesterol metabolism and ameliorates hypercholesterolemia by elevating plasma adiponectin level.
