Objective To investigate the preventive effect of octreotide combined with netilmicin sulfate on postoperative infection in suppurative appendicitis and its effect on helper T cell 17(Th17)/regulatory T cells(Treg)imbalance.Methods 148 patients with acute suppurative appendicitis in Xiangshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from August 2014 to May 2016 were randomly divided into observation group(n=74)and control group(n=74).All were underwent laparoscopic appendectomy surgery,the control group took netilmicin sulfate combined with ornidazole for anti-infection after operative,while the observation group added octreotide acetate subcutaneously.The levels of serum interleukin(IL)-4,IL-6,IL-10,IL-17,IL-23,transforming growth factor β(TGF-β),interferon γ(IFN-γ)and Th17,Treg cell ratio and expression levels of related transcription factorbefore and after treatment were detected,Th17/Treg change were analyzed.Results The levels of IL-4,IL-6,IL-10,IL-17,TGF-β were decreased,IFN-γ were increased after treatment(P<0.01),the improvement of those indicators in the observation group were supior than control group(P<0.05).Th17,Treg cell ratio and expression levels of related transcription factor orphan nuclear receptorγt(RORγt),Forkhead box protein P3(Foxp3)were decrease,Th17/Treg was reduced after treatment(P<0.01),those indexes in observation group were lower than those in control group(P<0.05).The wound infection,intra-abdominal infections and other adverse events had no significant difference in two groups.Conclusions Octreotide combined with netilmicin sulfate can prevent postoperative infection in suppurative appendicitis,regulate Th17/Treg imbalance,restore immune function,and no significant adverse reactions.

Objective To observe the changes of the endothelium-dependent vasodilatation(EDF)and serum vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in the patients with impaired glucose tolerance(IGT)and type 2 diabetes mellitus(DM).Methods 30 IGT patients,30 type 2 DM patients and 33 normal subjects were divided into3 groups. Fasting glucose(FPG),fasting insulin(FINS),serum superoxide dismutase(SOD),maleie. dialdehyde(MDA)and VEGF were measured after 12 hours overnight fast. Oral 75g glucose tolerance test(OGTT)was performed. The inner diameter of braehial artery was assessed by a high resolution ultrasound system before and after reactive hyperemia. EDF was calculated as the percent change in brachial artery diameter 1 minute after reactive hyperemia compared with baseline. Results In the IGT group and DM group, EDF was significantly lower than that in NGT group(both P＜0.01),and EDF in the DM group was significantly lower than that in the IGT group(P＜0.01).SOD in the IGT group and DM group were significantly lower than that in the NGT group(both P＜0.01),but MDA in reverse(both P＜0.01).Compared with the IGT group, SOD in DM group was significantly lower(P＜0.01),but MDA was significantly higher(P＜0.01).VEGF was progressively increased in the NGT,IGT, DM groups. The difference between the two groups was significant(both P＜0.01).Stepwise regression analysis showed that EDF was positively related to SOD(r=0.418,P＜0.01,n=93),and negatively related to HOMA-IR and VEGF(r=-0.553,-0.221,both P＜0.01,n=93).VEGF was negatively related to SOD(r=-0.552,P＜0.01,n=93).Conclusion EDF is impaired in IGT patients while the impairment in DM patients becomes more marked. Insulin resistance, VEGF,SOD and MDA are closely related to the impairment of EDF in IGT and type 2 DM.

Objective To investigate effects of changes in body composition and pancreas islet β-cell function on bone mineral density(BMD)in obese women with normal glucose metabolism at child-bearing age.Methods Ninety-five obese women with normal blood glucose at child-bearing age were recruited for the study,20 in non-obese group with body mass index(BMI)less than 23,20 in overweightgroup with BMI equal to or more than 23 and less than 25.28 in obesity Ⅰ group with BMI equal to or more than 25 and less than 30.and 27 in obesity Ⅱ group with BMI equal to or more than 30.Their BMD,body fat and lean mass were measured with by dual energy X-ray absorptiometer(DEXA),and intravenous -glucose tolerance test(IVGTT)was performed.Area under the Curve of insulin(AUCins)and acute jnsulin response(AIR)phase were calculated to assess their early insulin secretion.Homeostasis model assessment β-cell function index(HOMA2-%B)and homeostasis model insulin resistance index(HOMA2-IR)were used to assess their β-cell function and insulin resistance.Results Fat and lean mass in the upper and lower extremities.trunk and whole body and BMD in those women increased with increasing of their BMI(P＜0.05),particularly in fat mass.as well as their otller parameters including plasma insulin level at zerominute of IVGTT(IVGTTins0),AUCins.HOMA2-%B and HOMA2.IR(all P＜0.01).BMD in the upper and lower extremities,trunk and whole body showed a positive correlation with BMI,FPG,lean mass and/or fat mass.respectively(P＜0.05).BMD of the trunk and whole body also had a positive correlation with TVGTTins0,AIR,AUCins and HOMA2-IR.respectively(P＜0.05).Results of multivariate linear regression analysis showed that HOMA2-%B and HOMA2-IR correlated with BMD in a linear pattern.As the vailable body composition was added to the regression model.HOMA2 parameters would be removed from the model.Results of partial correlation analysis showed that islet β-cell function did not correlate with BMD after controlling body composition factors.Conclusions Insulin resistance or islet β-cell function compensation accompanied in obese women with main increase in fat mass have little benefit for their BMD,which may reflect indirectly their change in body compositions.Body composition,especially lean nlass,is the most important determinants of BMD in obese women.
