Objective To explore the relationship between sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) of gestational diabetes mellitus ( GDM ) pregnant women with well-controlled glucose and pregnancy outcomes. Methods Two hundred and fifty-one GDM pregnant women of 24 - 28 weeks in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University were recruited from Mar. 2005 to Mar. 2010. Two hundred and sixteen cases of GDM with well-controlled glucose were defined as glycemic satisfied group, and they were treated by diet therapy ( 169 cases) or insulin therapy (47 cases) . Thirty-five cases with unsatisfied glucose were defined as glycemic unsatisfied group. One hundred and ninety-two healthy pregnant women of 24 - 28 weeks were defined as healthy control group. Serum SHBG and homeostasis model analysis of insulin resistance ( HOMA-IR) at 24 - 28 weeks and above 36 weeks were measured. GDM was diagnosed bytwo-step method according to the National Diabetes Data Group ( NDDG) criteria. The pregnancy outcomes and complications of the three groups were recorded. Results ( 1 ) Comparison of pregnancy outcomes and complications: glycemic satisfied group was less likely to develop hypertensive disorders in pregnancy ( 10. 6% ) , premature birth(8. 3% ) ,large for gestational age ( LGA) (8. 8% ) , neonatal asphyxia(3. 7% ) and neonatal hypoglycemia ( 2. 3% ) compared to glycemic unsatisfied group ( 42. 9% , 34. 3% , 31. 4% , 22. 9% and 11. 4% ,respectively). And the difference was statistically significant (P <0. 05 or P <0. 01). There was no significant difference for incidence of polyhydramnios, pueperal infection, postpartum hemorrhage, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia between the two groups ( P> 0. 05 ) . When compared to healthy control group(7. 3% ,2. 1% ,4. 2% ,2. 1% and 1. 6% ) ,no significant difference was found for incidence of premature birth( 8. 3% ) , pueperal infection ( 3. 2% ) , postpartum hemorrhage (5. 1% ) , neonatal asphyxia (3. 7% )and neonatal hypoglycemia(2. 3% ,P >0. 05). (2) Comparison of results of 24 - 28 weeks and above 36 weeks: serum SHBG of glycemic satisfied group [( 384 ± 88 ) , (457 ± 48 ) nmol/L]was significantly higher than that of glycemic unsatisfied group[(313 ±45) ,(401 ±73) nmol/L];HOMA-IR of glycemic satisfied group (5. 3 ±1.1,5.5 ±1.1) was significantly lower than that of glycemic unsatisfied group (7. 0 ± 1. 3 ,7. 6 ± 1. 7 ; P < 0. 01). Serum SHBG of glycemic satisfied group was significantly lower than that of healthy control group [( 492 ± 95 ) , (565 ± 40 ) nmol/L]; and HOMA-IR of glycemic satisfied group(5. 3 ± 1. 1,5. 5 ± 1. 1) was significantly higher than that of healthy control group (3. 6 ±0. 6,3. 9 ± 0. 5 ;P < 0. 01 ) . FPG of glycemic satisfied group [( 5. 84 ± 0. 28 ) , ( 5. 16 ± 0. 13 ) mmol/L]was significantly lower than that of glycemic unsatisfied group [(6. 13 ± 0. 16 ) , ( 5. 68 ± 1. 14) mmol/L; P < 0. 01]. FINS of glycemic satisfied group [( 20. 4 ± 2. 1 ) , ( 24. 1 ± 4. 2 ) mmol/L]was significantly lower than that of glycemic unsatisfied group [(24. 7 ± 4. 5 ) , ( 29. 9 ± 2. 7 ) mmol/L; P < 0. 01]. ( 3 ) Correlation analysis. Between 24 - 28 weeks, SHBG was negatively correlated with HOMA-IR in the three groups ( r = -0. 952, P <0. 01) ; and SHBG was negatively correlated with HOMA-IR in glycemic satisfied group ( r = -0. 903, P <0. 01). Conclusions Well-controlled glucose can not completely improve maternal and fetal outcomes of GDM pregnant women. High insulin resistance and low serum SHBG can influence pregnancy outcomes.

Diabetes mellitus(DM)is a disease syndrome characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia.A long-term high-glucose environment leads to reactive oxygen species(ROS)production and nuclear DNA damage.Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell(HUcMSC)infusion induces significant antidiabetic effects in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)rats.Insulin-like growth factor 1(IGF1)receptor(IGF1R)is important in promoting glucose metabolism in diabetes;however,the mechanism by which HUcMSC can treat diabetes through IGF1R and DNA damage repair remains unclear.In this study,a DM rat model was induced with high-fat diet feeding and streptozotocin(STZ)administration and rats were infused four times with HUcMSC.Blood glucose,interleukin-6(IL-6),IL-10,glomerular basement membrane,and renal function were examined.Proteins that interacted with IGF1R were determined through coimmunoprecipitation assays.The expression of IGF1R,phosphorylated checkpoint kinase 2(p-CHK2),and phosphorylated protein 53(p-p53)was examined using immunohistochemistry(IHC)and western blot analysis.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to determine the serum levels of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine(8-OHdG).Flow cytometry experiments were used to detect the surface markers of HUcMSC.The identification of the morphology and phenotype of HUcMSC was performed by way of oil red"O"staining and Alizarin red staining.DM rats exhibited abnormal blood glucose and IL-6/10 levels and renal function changes in the glomerular basement membrane,increased the expression of IGF1 and IGF1R.IGF1R interacted with CHK2,and the expression of p-CHK2 was significantly decreased in IGF1R-knockdown cells.When cisplatin was used to induce DNA damage,the expression of p-CHK2 was higher than that in the IGF1R-knockdown group without cisplatin treatment.HUcMSC infusion ameliorated abnormalities and preserved kidney structure and function in DM rats.The expression of IGF1,IGF1R,p-CHK2,and p-p53,and the level of 8-OHdG in the DM group increased significantly compared with those in the control group,and decreased after HUcMSC treatment.Our results suggested that IGF1R could interact with CHK2 and mediate DNA damage.HUcMSC infusion protected against kidney injury in DM rats.The underlying mechanisms may include HUcMSC-mediated enhancement of diabetes treatment via the IGF1R-CHK2-p53 signalling pathway.

OBJECTIVE: To establish the method for simultaneous determination of saikosaponin a and saikosaponin d in Bupleurum chinense water extract, and to optimize its water extraction technology for electromagnetic cracking. METHODS: HPLC method was used. The determination was performed on SB-C18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-water (gradient elution) at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The column temperature was 40 ℃. The detection wavelength was set at 210 nm, and the sample size was 10 μL. Based on single factor experiment, using extraction time, particle size, solide-liquid ratio as factors, total extraction rate of saikosaponin a to saikosaponin d as indexes, the extraction technology was optimized by using Box-Behnken response surface methdology, and compared with the results of ultrasound method and decoction method. RESULTS: The linear range of saikosaponin a and saikosaponin d were 50.70-202.80 μg/mL (r=0.999 9) and 50.50-202.00 μg/mL (r=0.999 9), respectively. The quantitation limits were 0.16 and 0.13 μg/mL, respectively. The detection limits were 0.05 and 0.04 μg/mL,respectively. RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 2%. The average recoveries were 98.23-102.47% (RSD=1.80%, n=6) and 98.84%-102.06% (RSD=1.60%, n=6). The optimal extraction technology was as follows: the extraction time of 2.50 min; the particle size of 80 mesh, solid-liquid ratio of 1 ∶ 28 (g/mL). Results of 3 times of validation tests showed that the optimal technology included the average total extraction rates of saikosaponin a and saikosaponin d were 8.42 mg/g, which was higher than that of ultrasonic method (8.34 mg/g) and decoction method (8.06 mg/g), and the extration time was shorter. CONCLUSIONS: Established method is simple and accurate, and can be used for simultaneous determination of saikosaponin a and saikosaponin d in B. chinense water extract. The optimized water extraction technology for electromagnetic cracking is stable and feasible.

AIM:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of 0.05% cyclosporine eye drops(Ⅱ)combined with sodium hyaluronate eye drops in treating patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and moderate-to-severe dry eye.METHODS:A total of 120 T2DM patients(120 eyes)with moderate-to-severe dry eye, treated at the endocrinology and ophthalmology departments at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2024 to September 2024, were enrolled in the study. The patients were randomly divided into two groups: combination group [0.05% cyclosporine eye drops(Ⅱ)+ sodium hyaluronate eye drops] and control group(sodium hyaluronate eye drops alone), with 60 cases(60 eyes)in each group. Assessments were conducted at baseline and at 1, 2, and 3 mo post-treatment, including the ocular surface disease index(OSDI), non-contact tear meniscus height(NITMH), first non-invasive tear breakup time(NIBUTf), meibomian gland loss score, lipid layer thickness grade, conjunctival hyperemia grade, and corneal fluorescein staining(FL)score. At 3 mo after treatment, changes in tear inflammatory factors were observed, and corneal subbasal nerve plexus(SBN)morphology/density were analyzed using in vivo confocal microscopy(IVCM).RESULTS:At 1, 2, and 3 mo post-treatment, both groups showed statistically significant increases in NITMH and NIBUTf compared to baseline(all P<0.05), with greater improvement observed in the combination group(both P<0.05). OSDI and FL scores significantly decreased from baseline(all P<0.05), with more pronounced reductions in the combination group(both P<0.05). Meibomian gland loss scores showed no significant improvement in either group(all P>0.05). At 3 mo after treatment, tear levels of interleukin 6(IL-6)and matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)significantly decreased in both groups(all P<0.001), with a greater reduction noted in the combination group(both P<0.001). The combination group displayed increased corneal nerve branch density and nerve fiber density, along with decreased nerve tortuosity and dendritic cell(DC)density compared to baseline(all P<0.001), while the control group did not show significant changes(all P>0.05).CONCLUSION: The combination of 0.05% cyclosporine eye drops(Ⅱ)and sodium hyaluronate eye drops significantly improves clinical outcomes in T2DM patients with moderate-to-severe dry eye. This treatment effectively alleviates ocular surface inflammation, restores corneal nerve morphology and density, and demonstrates a favorable safety profile.

AIM: To explore the risk factors associated with diabetic retinopathy(DR)based on ultra-widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography(UWF-SS-OCTA), and to establish a clinical prediction model.METHODS:A total of 235 patients(235 eyes)with type 2 diabetes mellitus who were treated in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from July to November 2024 were selected as the research objects. According to the presence or absence of DR, they were divided into 120 cases(120 eyes)in non-DR group(NDR group)and 115 cases(115 eyes)in non-proliferative DR group(NPDR group). Data on general characteristics, laboratory tests, and OCTA results were collected for both groups. Univariate analysis was employed to identify DR-related risk factors. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze these risk factors and to establish a DR prediction model. The efficacy of the model was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis(DCA).RESULTS: The duration of diabetes, fasting blood glucose, blood urea nitrogen(BUN), history of hypertension, and the choroidal vascular index(CVI)were found to be statistically significant in the model(all P<0.05). Specifically, the duration of diabetes, fasting blood glucose, BUN, and history of hypertension were identified as risk factors for DR among diabetic patients, while CVI was recognized as a protective factor. The area under the curve for the model predicting the probability of DR was 0.898(0.859-0.938), with a diagnostic threshold of 0.438. The corresponding sensitivity and specificity were 87.8% and 78.3%, respectively, indicating that the model possesses high predictive value for the occurrence of DR.CONCLUSION: The duration of diabetes, fasting blood glucose, BUN, history of hypertension, and CVI are significantly correlated with DR. The established prediction model demonstrates a substantial screening capability for DR.
