1.Efficacy and safety of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors(SGLT2i) in the treatment of type 2 diabetes
Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 2016;(2):171-176
[Summary] As of 2014, an estimated 387 million people have diabetes mellitus ( DM) worldwide, which represents 8.3%of the adult population.China Noncommunicable Disease Surveillance in 2010 shows that the overall prevalence of DM is estimated to be 11.6%(approximately 113.9 million) in the Chinese adult population, with the prevalence among men of 12.1%and women of 11.0%, respectively.Control of blood glucose is fundamental to DM management.Despite the availability of several antihyperglycemic agents, only 53%of patients with DM achieve the recommended goals for DM care of HbA1C<7.0%.According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System Survey during the period of 10 years in the United States, 33.4%to 48.7%of persons with DM still have not met the targets for glycemic control, blood pressure or lipid level.In order to improve glycemic control, there is a need for new therapeutic options with innovative mechanisms of action and acceptable safety profiles.As a newly developed class of oral antidiabetic drugs, sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors(SGLT2i) have recently been approved for the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, including canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, and empagliflozin.Evidence from clinical trials has suggested promising efficacy and safety of SGLT2i when used as monotherapy or in combination with other antihyperglycemic medications.SGLT2i significantly reduce HbA1C and fasting plasma glucose, and are well tolerated in general with a low intrinsic propensity to cause hypoglycemia, as well as rare severe renal or cardiovascular adverse events reported.

Objective To apply James Sheehy myringoplasty for treatment of large perforation without residual rim and to observe the efficacy.Methods Between January 2001 and June 2003, 60 patients with large perforation without residual rim had underwent James Sheehy myringoplasty, in which 36 were males and 24 were females, aged from 16 to 64 years and with an average of 45.23 years. Preoperative air-bone gap was 5 to 45 dB, averaged 28.5 dB. Fellow-up was done more than 6 months on 54 patients.The key technic: (1) a vascular skin flap was made on the posterior canal wall and the anterior canal wall skin was excised. (2) canaloplasty was performed until the whole tympanic sulcus can be seen under one microscope view. (3) if necessary, the ossicular chain was explored. (4) overlay technic was used to repair perforation with temporal fascia. (5) the free anterior skin and the posterior canal vascular flap were replaced.Results 52 patients were healed in one stage. In 2 patient, two needle tip-like perforations appeared in the center of the grafting tympanic membrane 3 months after surgery, which were closed after gelatin sponge patching. The shape of the tympanic membrane looked as normal. Symptoms of temporomandabular joint appeared in 6 patients and disappeared 3 days later. Lateral displacement of the graft happened in 2 patients.Conclusion James Sheehy myringoplasty is a reliable technique for treatment of large perforation without residual rim, with high success rate, less postoperative response and good shape of new tympanic membrane.
