Objective To look for an appropriate dietary pattern of early nutritional intervention, which does not only meet the need of catch-up growth but also avoids or reduces the incidence of insulin resistance (IR) in adulthood of rats born with intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR). Methods The model of IUGR in rats was established by maternal nutrition restriction. Sixty newborn female rats with IUGR were randomly divided into 5 groups: (1) IUGR control group fed with common diet. (2) IUGR high-carbohydrate diet group. (3) IUGR high-fat diet group. (4) IUGR high-protein diet group. (5) IUGR low-protein diet group. The IUGR newborn rats were breast-fed for 3 weeks, while the mother rats were fed with the above different diets with the same caloric amount. Twelve normal newborn female rats served as a normal control group and were fed with common diet. All newborn rats were fed routine diet starting from the 4th week of experiment. The body weight, perirenal fat weight and the serum leptin, blood glucose, insulin concentration were measured and the insulin sensitive index (ISI) were calculated at the 4th week and the 12th week of life. Results The IUGR rats fed with high-protein diet showed a catch-up growth without the increase of perirenal fat at the 4th week, a normal level of perirenal fat, leptin and ISI at the 12th week compared with the normal control group, and did not show IR. The groups fed with high carbohydrate diet and high fat diet also showed a catch-up growth, but did the same as the IUGR control group in other aspects, they all showed increased perirenal fat, higher levels of leptin, lower ISI and IR at adulthood. The group fed with low protein diet did not show IR, but kept a small body size with increased perirenal fats. The serum leptin level of rats was positively correlated to body weight at the 4th week of life and was positively correlated to the weight of perirenal fat and negatively correlated to ISI at the 12th week of life. Conclusion High protein diet is an appropriate early nutritional intervention for rats with IUGR. The serum leptin level at the 12th week of life seems to be an index of IR in adult rats with IUGR.

Objective To discuss whether it is necessary to integrate metabolic indices into diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods Taking ESHRE /ASRM diagnosis standard as gold standard,the case group composed of 51 women with PCOS and the control group composed of 47 women without PCOS were selected.By using classification tree C5.0,significant variables chosen by single factor analysis were used to establish a new diagnostic model which combined reproductive indices and metabolic indices.The validity and reliability of the new diagnostic model by using ROC curve analysis were evaluated.Finally,the consistence and difference between the new diagnostic model and the gold standard were analyzed.Results Single factor analysis chose 13 significant variables. ROC analysis showed an area under the curve of 0.930(P =0.000)and the optimal cut -off point was 0.190 with a sensitivity of 94.10%,a specificity of 91.50% and a consistency of 92.86%,which told us the new diagnostic model had superior validity and reliability.The two diagnostic methods had excellent consistence (Kappa =0.857,P =0.000)and there was no statistically significant difference (P =1.000).Conclusion Considering that whether metabolic indices are integrated into diagnosis of PCOS doesn′t change the diagnosis result,and it is unnecessary to integrate metabolic indices into diagnosis of PCOS.

Objective To discuss whether it is necessary to integrate metabolic indices into diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Methods Taking ESHRE/ASRM diagnosis as the gold standard,51 women with PCOS and 47 women without PCOS were selected and divided into the intervention group and control group respectively from the Department of Gynecology in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University between January 2013 and July 2014.Logistic regression based on principal component analysis and significant variables chosen through single factor analysis were used to establish the new diagnostic model which combined reproductive indices and metabolic indices.We evaluated the validity and reliability of the new diagnostic model by using ROC curve analysis.Finally,we analyzed the consistence and difference between the new diagnostic model and the gold standard.Results Thirteen significant variables were chosen using single factor analysis.ROC analysis showed that an area under the curve was 0.976 (P＜0.001) and the optimal cut-off point was 0.526 with a sensitivity of 96.08％,a specificity of 93.62％ and a consistency of93.88％.The new diagnostic model had superior validity and reliability.The two diagnostic methods had strong consistence (Kappa=0.877,P＜0.001) and no difference (x2=0.167,P=0.688).Conclusion Considering that the integration of metabolic indices does not change the diagnosis result,we come to a conclusion that it is unnecessary to integrate metabolic indices into diagnosis of PCOS.

A rapid and sensitive analytical method was developed for the simultaneous determination of fumonisins B1 and B2 in traditional Chinese medicines by HPLC-MS/MS. The detection limits for fumonisins B1 and B2 were 0.25 ng x mL(-1) corresponding to 2 microg x kg(-1) in samples. Recoveries from different samples spiked with fumonisins B1 and B2 at levels ranging from 0.2 to 3 mg x kg(-1) were 84.0%-96.1% and 86.3%-99.3%, respectively. Among the total of 34 samples purchased from local markets, ten samples of which were visibly moldy samples due to inappropriate storage, and 24 were normal samples. The results showed that 6 of the visibly moldy samples and 5 of the normal samples were contaminated with total fumonisins at levels ranging 82.4-2349 microg x kg(-1) and 102-729 microg x kg(-1), respectively.

Objective To evalvate the efficacy of patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) combined with ganciclovir for treatment of postherpetic neuralgia in patients.Methods A total of 60 patients with PHN,aged 51-86 yr,of ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ,were randomly assigned into 2 groups (n =30 each) using a random number table:ganciclovir group (F group) and PCEA combined with ganciclovir group (FB group).In FB and F groups,ganciclovir 0.25 g was infused intravenously twice a day for 7 consecutive days.In addition,continuous PCEA was performed simultaneously in group FB and the PCEA solution contained ropivacaine 300 mg,prednisolone 20 mg and dezocine 10 mg in 250 ml of normal saline.At 1 day before treatment (T0) and 7 days,1 month,and 6 months after treatment (T1-3),pain was assessed with visual analogue scale (VAS),and the quality of life (QOL) score and pair relief rate were recorded.Results VAS and QOL scores were significantly lower at T1-3 than at T0 in the two groups.Compared with F group,VAS scores were significantly decreased,and QOL score and pain relief rate were increased at T1-3 in FB group.Conclusion PCEA combined with ganciclovir can effectively alleviate postherpetic neuralgia in the patients.

Objective To investigate the application value of serum tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) expression in diagnosing colorectal cancer (CRC).Methods One hundred and thirty inpatients with CRC in our hospital from February 2015 to November 2016 were selected and divided into 90 cases of CRC confirmed by operation and histopathology(CRC group),including intestinal cancer with and without metastasis,and 40 cases of benign colorectal diseases(colonrectal benign disease group),at the same time 40 persons undergoing physical examination were selected as the healthy control group.The levels of TNF-α,carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA) 724 were collected in all subjects.The data of various groups were not normally distributed,and the nonparametric statistical method was used to analyze and compare.Results Serum TNF-α level in clinical TNM stage Ⅱ(median 9.47 pg/mL),Ⅲ(9.95 pg/mL) and Ⅳ(9.67 pg/mL) of the CRC group was significantly higher than that in TNM stage Ⅰ(6.59 pg/mL);which in the CRC with metastasis group (9.95 pg/mL) was higher than 8.03 pg/mL in CRC without metastasis group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);the TNF-α expression had no obvious difference among different ages and between different genders(P>0.05).The area under the ROC curve in each test index:TNF-α was 0.868,CEA was 0.912,CA724 was 0.523,and which of their joint detection was 0.940.Conclusion The expression of TNF-α is increased in the occurrence and development process of CRC,its serum level detection has certain clinical application value,the TNF-α expression has no obvious difference in the subjects with different ages and different sexes and has wide suitability.The combine detection of serum TNF-α,CEA and CA724 in the patients with CRC significantly increases the level,the combined detection of 3-index can have complementary advantages to increase the sensitivity of CRC diagnosis,which serve as the significant indexes in CRC early diagnosis,therapeutic effect evaluation and prognosis monitoring.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and value of white blood cell(WBC) count during influenza diagnosis.Methods Compare with leukocyte count and its classification,clinical features between 38 cases of influenza A and 55 cases of influenza B patients.Results The follow results have were significant difference between these two group(P<0.05):The WBC content (WBC),neutrophil count (NEUT),lymphocyte(LYMPH) count and platelet (PLT).In both group,WBC were mostly in normal range.However,WBC and NEUT% in the group A were 15.79% and 34.21%,higher than the B group 7.27%,25.45%.Additionaly,WBC and NEUT% in upper respiratory tract infection group were 59.26% and 66.67%,higher than the normal ranger,and group influenza A flow patients with higher proportion for headache and crackles,were 47.36% and 52.63%,respectively(P<0.05).Conclusion The WBC count and its classification have significant difference between influenza A and B.Furthermore,patients with influenza A virus are more likely to have co-infection with bacteria.

Objective To study the function of Fkbp51 in the heart and liver by analyzing the differential RNA expression profiles in the wild-type mice (WT) and Fkbp51 knockout (KO) mice, and to elucidate the role of Fkbp51 gene in metabolic pathways in the heart and liver.Methods Using the second generation of high-throughput gene sequencing technology, the mRNA expression profiles of heart and liver were sequenced in WT and Fkbp51 KO mice.The data of sequencing of heart tissues were analyzed by DEGseq, and the results of sequencing of liver tissues were analyzed by BRB-Array Tools.The differential genes of the heart and liver in the mice were screened respectively.Gene ontology (GO) analysis and KEGG pathway analysis were performed to analyze the differentially expressed genes using the online tool DAVID.In addition, the differential genes of the two organ tissues were analyzed by Venn diagram.The interaction network of proteins was analyzed using the STRING database.Results (1) The absence of Fkbp51 led to changes in mRNA expressions of heart-related signal pathways such as vascular smooth muscle contraction, chemokine, retinol, and MAPK signaling pathways.(2) The lack of Fkbp51 mostly induced changes in cholesterol synthesis and metabolism, lipid metabolism, redox and other related genes and pathways in the liver.(3) In the heart and liver, Fkbp51 deletionresult ed in four co-differential genes, among them, down-regulation of Rnaset2b, Hmga1 and Fkbp51, while Cyp2b10 was down-regulated in the heart but up-regulated in the liver.All these proteins may interact with HSP90 protein and participat in the metabolism of heart and liver tissues.Conclusions Fkbp51 is involved in different metabolic and gene expression regulation pathways of heart and liver, and the roles are both independent and interrelated.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of cerebral perfusion SPECT/CT combined with brain MRI in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease.Methods A total of 107 cases with ischemic cerebrovascular disease from August 2011 to August 2013 (71 males,36 females,age:33-84years) were retrospectively studied,including 31 cases with transient ischemic attack,40 cases with the first onset of cerebral infarction,36 cases with recurrent cerebral infarction.99Tcm-ECD SPECT/CT and brain MRI were performed within 7 d after attack.The interval between the two scans was within 5 d.The number of lesions and detection rate by SPECT/CT,SPECT,MRI,CT,and their combination were calculated respectively,and analyzed using x2 test.Results The detection rate was:SPECT/CT+MRI (97.20％,104/107)=SPECT+MRI (97.2％,104/107) ＞SPECT/CT (95.33％,102/107)＞SPECT (90.65％,97/107) ＞MRI (85.05％,91/107)＞CT (65.42％,70/107).No statistically significant difference was observed between the detection rate of SPECT/CT+MRI and SPECT+MRI,SPECT/CT (x2 =0.17,0.13;both P＞0.05),while there was statistically significant difference between SPECT/CT+MRI and SPECT,MRI,or CT (x2 =4.01,9.76,35.50;all P＜0.05).SPECT/CT detected more ischemic lesions located in brain gray matter and revealed crossed cerebellar diaschisis,while MRI was better for detecting small lacunar lesions in basal ganglia,brainstem and deep white matter.Conclusions SPECT/CT is valuable for the detection of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.hnproved assessment may be achieved by the combination of SPECT/CT and MRI.
