Chinese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology 2012;47(5):364-367
Objective To study the roles of advanced glycation end products and its receptor on fetal brain injury of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) rats.Methods Twenty one adult pregnant Wistar rats were administered streptozotocin (STZ) intraperitoneally to induce GDM rats model.The fourteen pregnant rats were divided into two groups according to the fasting glucose on the 3rd day of pregnancy:severe GDM group with the fasting glucose > 16.7 mmol/L and mild GDM group with the fasting glucose between 6.7 - 16.7 mmol/L Another seven pregnant rats were chosen as the severe GDM and intervention with micronutrient group,receiving gavage with micronutrient during the whole pregnancy.Five control rats received the same volume of citric acid buffer.All the pregnant rats were tested fasting glucose from the tailvein and their weight on the pregnant day 3,13 and 19.Maternal serum levels of AGE were measured by ELISA and RAGE levels in the embryonic brain tissues were tested by immunohistochemistry.Results ( 1 ) There was no statistically significant difference of pre-pregnancy fasting glucose level among all groups (P > 0.05 ).The fasting glucose levels on the 3rd day and the mean fasting glucouse level of pregnancy in the severe GDM group and the severe GDM and intervention with micronutrient group were higher than those of the control group ( P <0.05 ).And there was no significant difference between the severe GDM group and the severe GDM and intervention with micronutrient group (P >0.05 ).(2)The serum AGE levels in the severe GDM group and the mild GDM group were( 1037 + 38) ng/L and( 880 ± 34) ng/L respectively,with no significant difference ( P > 0.05 ).The serum AGE levels in the control group and the severe GDM and intervention with micronutrient group were (857 ± 32 ) ng/L and (988 ± 37 ) ng/L,and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05 ).The serum AGE levels in the severe GDM and intervention with micronutrient group and in the mild GDM group had no significant difference ( P > 0.05 ).( 3 ) The serum AGE levels in the severe GDM group,mild GDM group and the control group were positively associated with the mean glucose level of pregnancy ( r =0.603,P < 0.05 ) and the grlucose on the 3rd day of pregnancy (r =0.704,P < 0.05 ).(4)The fetal brain nerve cell number and morphology in the control group were normal.While in the mild GDM group fetal brain nerve cells decreased,the proliferation and swelling of glial cells were seen.In the severe GDM group and the severe GDM and intervention with micronutrient group,the fetal brain cells furtherly reduced,and large vacuole around the cells,deformation and debris of the cells were seen. Glial scar formation was visible in some fetal brain tissues.There was a few RAGE expression in the control fetal brain tissues.In the mild GDM group and the severe GDM group,RAGE expression increased significantly.And the RAGE expression intensity in the severe GDM and intervention with micronutrient group was between the severe and the mild GDM groups.Conclusions( 1 ) Abnormal fetal brain development of GDM rats was associated with the increase of maternal serum AGE and the enhancement of RAGE expression in fetal brain tissues,which suggested that AGE/RAGE pathway may play an important role in the fetal brain injury of GDM rats.(2) Micronutrients can reduce the brain damage of GDM fetuses.
6.Clinical efficacy and action mechanism of electrical pudendal nerve stimulation in treating female stress urinary incontinence
Chinese Journal of Urology 2013;34(8):575-578
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and mechanism of electrical pudendal nerve stimulation (EPNS) in treating female stress urinary incontinence.Methods Thirty-five female patients with stress urinary incontinence were enrolled from May 2006 to April 2008.The average age was (54.9±9.7) years,the duration of incontinence was (74.1 ±45.6) months,the maximum urethral closure pressure was (63.7± 15.9) cm H2O,functional urethral length was (2.34±0.72) cm and bladder neck mobility was (1.23±0.76) cm.Long acupuncture needles were deeply inserted into four sacral points,which were located by the two edges of the sacrum on a level with the fourth sacral foramina and bilaterally to the tip of the coccyx.The needles were electrified (continuous waves,a frequency of 2.5 Hz,an intensity of 45-55 mA and 60 min once) to stimulate the pudendal nerves.When EPNS was performed,perineal ultrasonographic B-mode movements of the pelvic floor muscles (PFM),M-mode curves indicating the PFM contractions,vaginal pressure (VP) and PFM electromyogram were recorded simultaneously.Results When EPNS was performed correctly,the patient felt strong PFM contractions.Simultaneous records showed:1)B-mode cranio-caudal PFM movements; 2) M-mode PFM movement curves (amplitude:about 1 mm,n=31 ; in the other four patients,the M-mode curves were not obvious) ; 3) a sawtooth curve of VP changes (2.61±1.29 cm H2O,n=34); 4) PFM myoelectric waves (amplitude:23.9±25.3 μV).If during the EPNS process the electric current was stopped or its intensity was reduced or the two lower needles were drawn back 1-2 cm,then the above ultrasonographic PFM movements and VP changes disappeared.In the 35 patients,the ICI-Q-SF score was 12.9±2.9 before treatment and decreased to 3.5±3.3 after 27.5± 11.9 sessions of treatment (P<0.01).Twenty-five patients with ≥50% symptom improvement at the end of treatment were followed up for 24-72 months (mean 50),and 19 cases had ≥ 50% symptom improvement during the period of follow-up,including complete symptoms resolution in 10 cases.Conclusion EPNS can contract the PFMs and simulate PFM training to treat female stress incontinence.

Objective To analyze the changes of Tpeak-Tend interval (Tp-Te) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM),and to explore the relationship between the changes of Tp-Te and ventricular arrhythmias. Methods A total of 112 patients with T2DM were selected from the Department of endocrinology of our hospital from June 2014 to May 2016 (T2DM group),and 65 subjects underwent healthy physical examination in our hospital were selected as the normal control group (NC group) during the same period.The general data,fasting plasma glucose (FPG),glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c),Tp-Te,Tp-Te dispersion (Tp-Ted) were compared between the two groups.The changes of Tp-Te in patients with or without ventricular arrhythmia in T2DM group were also analyzed. Results The FPG,HbA1c,LDL-C,TC and heart rate were significantly higher in T2DM group than in the NC group (P<0.05).Compared with the control group,V5 lead Tp-Te and Tp-Ted in T2DM group was significantly prolonged (P<0.05).IN T2DM group,V5 lead Tp-Te and Tp-Ted were significantly longer in patients with ventricular arrhythmias than in patients without ventricular arrhythmia (P<0.05).Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the increase of HbA1c and FPG were independent risk factors for prolonged Tp-Ted,and Tp-Ted was an independent risk factor for ventricular arrhythmia. Conclusion Patients with T2DM are more likely to have prolonged Tp-Ted.The prolonged Tp-Te and Tp-Ted could increase the incidence of ventricular arrhythmias.
