Objective To analyze the incidence of stress hyperglycemia and its influential factors in patients with acute myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction. Methods The case data of 1630 consecutive patients with incipient myocardial infarction without cerebrovascular disease admitted in the department of cardiology and 1338 patients with atherosclerotic acute cerebral infarction without cardiovascular disease admitted in the department of neurology,Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University from January 2009 to December 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 2048 patients without diabetes mellitus were selected from them,among them 1165 patients were in an acute myocardial infarction group and 883 were in a cerebral infarction group. The fasting blood glucose >7. 8 mmol/L in the next morning after admission was defined as hyperglycemia. Single factor and multifactor logistic regression analyses were used to compare the incidence of stress hyperglycemia and its influential factors of both groups. Results ( 1 ) Of the 1165 patients with myocardial infarction,the incidence of stress hyperglycemia was 17. 2% (n=201);of the 883 patients with cerebral infarction,the incidence of stress hyperglycemia was 5.4% (n=48). There was significant difference between the 2 group (χ2= 65.677;P < 0. 01). (2) Comparing the general information of the patients with stress hyperglycemia (n=249) and those without stress hyperglycemia ( n=1799) of the cardio-cerebrovascular diseases showed that there were significant differences in hyperlipidemia, drinking history, family history of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases, age, heart rate, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol,leukocyte count,blood urea nitrogen,and triacylglycerols between the 2 groups (P<0. 05). (3) Multivariate Logistic analysis showed that heart rate ( OR,1. 013,95%CI 1.002-1.024),leukocyte count (OR,1.109,95%CI 1.508-1.163),and triacylglycerols(OR,1.174, 95%CI 1. 042-1. 322) were the independent risk factors for stress hyperglycemia in myocardial infarction. (4) Systolic blood pressure (OR,1. 019,95% CI 1. 006-1.033) and leukocyte count (OR,1. 132,95%CI 1. 009-1. 268) were the independent risk factors for stress hyperg lycemia in cerebral infarction. Conclusion The incidence of stress hyperglycemia in patients with myocardial infarction is higher than that in patients with cerebral infarction,and the increased leukocyte count is a common independent risk factor for both.

Objective: To study the effects of chromium on glucose and lipid metabolism and gene expression in diabetic rats.Methods: Male Wistar rats were assigned to three groups:normal control(NC), alloxan-induced diabetic control group(DM), and DM with chromium supplementation group(DM+Cr). Cr 200 ?g/(kg bw?d) was supplemented orally for 60 days. At the end of the treatment, the blood glucose, lipid and serum insulin were measured, and the changes in gene expression among three groups were studied by mRNA differential display technique.Results: Blood glucose in DM+Cr group decreased significantly than that before experiment. The levels of serum TG, TC, LDL-C and AI in DM+Cr group were lower than those of DM group, while the serum HDL-C levels were higher. Serum insulin was not improved obviously in DM+Cr group. 11 cDNA fragments larger than 400 bp expressed differences in skeletal muscles between DM+Cr group and DM group and were isolated, 4 of which expressed higher in DM+Cr group, while the rest expressed higher in DM group.Conclusion: Chromium supplementation could partially improve the disorders of glucose and lipid metabolism, and have an impact on some gene expression in diabetic rats, which may contribute to the regulating effects on its disorders of metabolism.

Objective To evaluate the accuracy and feasibility of primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) assisted by the self-made extramedullary osteotomy template on distal femur alignment.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 40 patients with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid undergoing primary TKA from September 2015 to March 2016.All patients were divided into two groups,extramedullary group and intramedullary group.Extramedullary group had 20 patients (4 males and 16 females) aged 65.1±6.9 years (range 51-75).Intramedullary group had 20 patients (3 males and 17 females) aged 65.7±7.9 years (range 48-75).The blood loss volume,drainage in operation,postoperative range of motion (ROM) at 1 week and 2 weeks,deviation between the ideal value and preoperative hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle,coronal and sagittal angle of the femoral prosthesis were compared within the two groups.Results The age,gender,body mass index,deviation between the ideal value and preoperative HKA angle,Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) scoring system,ROM of knee were not significantly different between the two groups.The operation time was 97.4± 14.0 min in extramedullary group and 111.7±9.9 min in intramedullary group (P ＜ 0.05).The blood loss was 71.8± 14.0 ml in extramedullary group and 111.7± 10.0 ml in intramedullary group (P ＜ 0.05),while the drainage volume was 167.0±74.5 ml in extramedullary group and 243.2±91.6 ml in intramedullary group (P＜ 0.05).The postoperative mean deviation of the HKA angle in extramedullary group (2.37°±0.73°) was smaller than that in intramedullary group (3.26°±1.42°).Furthermore,the coronal alignment of the femoral prosthesis in extramedullary group (89.70°±1.91°) was larger than that in intramedullary group (87.69°±2.39°).The sagittal alignment of the femoral prosthesis in extramedullary group (90.03°±2.62°) was also significantly larger than that in intramedullary group (88.07°±2.43°,P ＜ 0.05).The postoperative ROM of knee at 1 and 2 week in the extramedullary group were 101.75°±7.48° and 114.00°±7.88° respectively,while those in the intramedullary group were 101.25°±8.41° and 114.25°±8.78°.There was no statistically different between the two groups.There was no intraoperative and postoperative early complications reported in the two groups.Conclusion Although the primary TKA assisted by the selfmade extramedullary osteotomy template on distal femur alignment can shorten operation time,decrease the blood loss and increase the accuracy of coronal and sagittal alignment,the HSS score and ROM of knee are similar as intramedullary method.
