BACKGROUND: Psychological disorders, such as depression and anxiety are relevant to pathogenesis and management of type 2 diabetes mellitus.OBJECTIVE: It was designed to investigate the influence of improving depression and anxiety in diabetes on metabolism of blood glucose.DESIGN: It was a randomized controlled comparative study.SETTING: It was conducted at the Cousulting Center for Clinical Psychology and the Endocrinology Department of Southwest Hospital Affiliated Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA .PARTICIPANTS: Totally 43 inpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in the Endocrinology Department of Southwest Hospital Affiliated toThird Military Medical University of Chinese PLA were selected from October, 1999 to November 2000. All of them participated the investigation voluntarily, 24males and 19 females, with an age of 51±9 years old. They were randomly divided into 2 groups, 23 in experimental group and 20 in control group.METHODS: For experimental group, besides routine medications for diabetes, patients also Accepted anti-depression and anti-anxiety treatment, including paroxetine (20 mg, taking after breakfast everyday) and Alprazolam (0.4 mg, taking at noon, at evening and before sleep everyday). For control group, patients only Accepted routine medication for diabetes. Patients in the two groups were assessed before medication and after 4 weeks medication by Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS). They were identified as depression and anxiety according to the Scales. Reduction rate of SDS/SAS score was used to assess the therapeutic effects: When the reduction rate was 50%-100%, the medication was significantly effective, when it was 25%-49% the treatment was effective, and when it was less than 25%, the treatment was noneffective.Reduction rate =(pre-treatment score-post-treatment score)/post-treatment score×100%. The fasting blood glucose level, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose level and the Glycosylated Hemoglobin (GHB, HbAl) were measured before treatment and after 4 weeks medication. Meanwhile, preprandial blood glucose level and 1-hour postprandial blood glucose level (6 times per day) were detected before treatment and at the 10th, 20th and 30th day during treatment. Reduction rate of blood glucose-(pre-treatment blood glucose level-post-treatment glucose level)/pre-treatment blood glucose level.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: These were main outcome measureglucose ①SDS/SAS scores, fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose and GHB before treatment and after 4 weeks treatment were measured in two group, ② and reduction rate of blood glucose.RESULTS: Six cases were omitted, 5 was in experimental group for financial pressure, intolerance to side effects of paroxetine and fears of the addiction of psychotropic drugs; the other one was in control group due to drop-out. There were 37 patients finished the investigation, 18 in experimental group and 19 in control group.①Comparison of SDS score/SAS core: After 4 weeks medication, it was observed that the post-treatment scores were significantly lower than pre-treatment scores in experimental group compared to control group[(41.05±7.05,41.88±10.57); (59.80±10.24,55.03±8.31 ), (t=2.41, 2.21, P ＜ 0.05)].②Comparison of fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose and reduction rate of blood glucose: After 4 weeks medication, the fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose in experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group(t=2.11,2.98, P ＜ 0.05-0.01)and the reduction rate of fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose in experimental group were significantly greater than those in control group (t=2.94,2.93,P ＜ 0.01). ③Comparison of GHB:After 4 weeks medication,the posttreatment GHB level in experimental group were significantly lower than pre-treatment GHB level[(8.2±2.0)%,(9.1±1.9)%, (t=2.14, P ＜ 0.05)].CONCLUSION: Anti-depression and anti-anxiety drugs not only can alleviate depression and anxiety symptoms significantly, but also can improve blood glucose metabolism. This may be attributed to an effect of anti-depression and anti-anxiety drugs in increasing the compliance of the patients to the medication for diabetes and decreasing the insulin resistance induced by negative moods.

PurposeTo explore the application of ultrasonography-guided core needle biopsy (US-CNB) in diagnosis of breast phyllodes tumor, in order to provide a reliable basis for operation selection, and to improve prognosis.Materials and MethodsFifty-seven patients with diagnosed or suspected phyllodes tumor of the breast (PTB) were retrospectively studied. Ultrasound results and US-CNB biopsy data were compared with surgical pathology results.ResultsFor all the 57 cases of PTB, US-CNB revealed 46 benign cases, 8 cases of suspected borderline PTB, and 3 cases of mesenchymal malignant tumors. The postoperative pathological diagnosis of all the patients included 48 cases of benign tumors, 6 cases of borderline tumors, and 3 cases of malignant tumors. Compared with the postoperative pathology, US-CNB had sensitivity of 95.83%, speciifcity of 100.00%, the coincidence rate of 96.49%, the misdiagnosis rate of 4.17%, and misdiagnosis rate of 0%. The Youden's index was 0.96, andKappa was 0.8345. ConclusionUS-CNB has high sensitivity, speciifcity and coincidence rate in diagnosis of PTB.

Objective To investigate the genetic damage of dust storm fine particles on human blood lymphocytes. Methods The chromosomal aberration test and cytochalasin B blocked test were used to investigate the effect in vitro of dust storm fine particles (PM2.5) (0, 33, 100, 300 ?g/ml)collected in Baotou and Wuwei cities on human lymphocytes. Results In both dust storm and normal ambient air fine particles treated cells revealed an increase in the chromosomal aberration level and micronuclei frequency (MNF). The chromosomal aberration(CA)were characterized as chromatid break, chromosome break, acentric fragment, dicentric chromosome and gaps. With the increase of treatment concentrations the aberration level and MNF increased and the mitotic index(MI) and the nuclear division index (NDI) values declined in a dose-response manner(P0.05). The treatments of normal ambient air PM2.5 from Baotou City were significant higher than those of Wuwei City, but the treatments of dust storm PM2.5 were not significant different between the cities. Conclusion Dust storm PM2.5 from Baotou City and Wuwei City may cause human lymphocytes genetic damage and its genetic toxicity is related to the dose.

Objective To study lexicological effects of sulfur dioxide (SO2) on reproductive system of male mammals. Methods After dynamic 7-day inhalation of SO2 at various concentrations, such as (22

AIM:To probe into the toxicological mechanism of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and its derivatives on cardiovascular system.METHODS: Effects of tea polyphenols (TP) on the increase in sodium current (INa) induced by SO2 derivatives in the cardiomyocytes were studied using the whole cell patch-clamp technique.RESULTS: ① The increase in INa induced by SO2 derivatives was inhibited by treating the cells with TP at different concentrations (10, 20 or 50 mg/L) in a dose dependent manner. At concentration of 50 mg/L, TP completely inhibited the increase in INa by SO2 derivatives. ② SO2 derivatives led to shift left of the activation curve. After application of TP at dose of 50 mg/L, the curve showed resumed significantly. ③ TP changed the inactivation process significantly. Before and after the application of SO2 derivatives, the half-inactivation voltage of INa was -(71.94?0.23) mV and -(65.79?0.69) mV (n=8, P0.05).CONCLUSION: TP inhibits the incremental effects of SO2 derivatives on INa, suggesting that the toxicity of SO2 on cardiomyocytes of rat is induced by free radical.
