Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2017;40(2):125-128
Objective To compare the clinical characteristics of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and normal gestational glucose metabolism at the 25th weeks of pregnant. Methods Sixty-eighty patients with GDM (GDM group) and 68 patients with normal blood glucose(control group) were enrolled in this study. During 25 weeks of pregnancy, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), blood pressure, fasting insulin, glycosylated hemoglobin, uric acid, triglyceride, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol were measured and body mass index (BMI), homeostasis model of assessment for insulin resistence index (HOMA-IR), insulin sensitivity index (ISI) were computed. The results were compared between two groups. Results The age in GDM group was significantly higher than that in control group: (31.38 ± 0.54) years vs. (29.50 ± 0.56) years, P<0.05. The systolic pressure in two groups had no significant difference (P>0.05), but diastolic blood pressure in GDM group was significantly higher than that in control group:(73.2 ± 0.8) mmHg vs. (70.9 ± 0.8) mmHg, 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa, P<0.05. The body weight and BMI in GDM group were significantly higher than that in control group:(65.67 ± 1.76) kg vs. (57.76 ± 1.11) kg, (24.77 ± 0.61) kg/m2 vs. (22.11 ± 0.42) kg/m2, P<0.01. The levels of glycosylated hemoglobin, fasting insulin and HOMA- IR in GDM group were significantly higher than those in control group (5.546 ± 0.746)% vs. (5.085 ± 0.034)% , (17.870 ± 1.015) mU/L vs. (14.400 ± 0.634) mU/L, 4.192 ± 0.271 vs. 2.645 ± 0.128, but the level of ISI in GDM group was significantly lower than that in control group:0.014 ± 0.001 vs. 0.020 ± 0.001, and there were significantly differences (P<0.01). The levels of uric acid, triglyceride, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol in two groups had no significant differences (P>0.05). Conclusions Compared to those with normal blood glucose, the patients with GDM have the characteristics of higher age, higher body weight, higher BMI, higher diastolic blood pressure , higher level of insulin, insulin resistance and decreased insulin sensitivity.

5.The development of predicting the lung cancer resistance to gemcitabine by the expression levels of RRM1
Cancer Research and Clinic 2000;0(06):-
Gemcitabine is important pyrimidine antimetabolites drug. Ribonucleotide reductase is oneof its targets whose overexpression has been observed in several gemcitabine- resistant cell lines. Meanwhile,the NSCLC patients with high RRM1 expression levels have a relatively poor survival when treated with gem-citabine. To this day, the relationship between RRM1 expression levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cellsand gemcitabine is still uncertain and it deserves further research.
6.Application of EEG non-linear analysis in cognitive function research
Chinese Journal of Neurology 2000;0(05):-
Objective To investigate the changes of non-linear dynamics properties of EEG under different mental tasks,and the application of non-linear dynamic analysis for cognitive function research. Methods EEG was recorded in 30 healthy university students under four states: eyes closed,eyes open,mental arithmetic with eyes closed and graphic reasoning test with eyes open.Correlation dimension (D 2) and point-wise correlation dimension (PD 2) were calculated for all subjects.We also performed a surrogate data test in 5 randomized selected subjects. Results In all states tested,the results argued for the presence of non-linearity and fractal D 2 and PD 2.D 2 and PD 2 increased significantly during mental tasks as compared to the rest states (D 2 of above four states was 3.93,4.47,4.33 and 4.98 respectively).The results showed that values of D 2 and PD 2 fluctuated with time,which suggests an intermittent activation of the brain areas participated in the task.With non-linear dynamic analysis,there might be a working circuit from bilateral temporal lobes to the left frontal lobe and parental lobe under mental arithmetic task.Conclusions Through dynamic analysis based on D 2 and PD 2 topographic maps,we can see clearly the distribution of D 2 and PD 2 in the brain,the sequence and the degree of activation of the regions involved in the cognitive task under mental tasks.Dynamic and short-time non-linear analysis methods are more appropriate for the study of mental functions.Non-linear dynamic analysis might help us understand the working mechanism of brain during mental activities.

China Oncology 1998;0(04):-
Background and purpose:In China, incidence of gastric cancer is high but early diagnosis is low and treatment results remains poor.The role of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for patients has been explored.In this study, we evaluated the effects and safety of preoperative intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy(PAIC) for advanced gastric cancer.Methods:One hundred and five patients with clinic stage-Ⅱ above advanced gastric cancer were submitted to preoperative intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy using the Seldinger technique.The regimen consisted of 5-FU 750 mg/m2, MMC 10 mg/m2, and DDP 60 mg/m2.Seven to ten days after the PAIC, all 105 patients received operation.Other 95 patients underwent surgery directly as control group.The responses by the tumor lesion and chemotherapy toxicity were observed.The long term survival rate were also evaluated.Results:Pathological examination showed that the tumor cells had changed by chemothrapy.Common adverse effects of PAIC were grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ gastrointestinal discomfort and bone marrow depression.No gastric rupture had occurred.Ninety-one cases(86.6%) underwent curative resection.The 1, 3, and 5-year survival rate was 96.2%, 68.6%, and 52.4% respectively.Among 95 patients with control group, sixty-five cases(68.6%) underwent curative resection.1,3,and 5-year survival rates were 88.4%,38.9% and 28.4%,respectively.Conclusion:PAIC is an effective, and safety chemotherapeutic treatment for advanced gastric cancer.It can affer treatment downstage of disease and enhances resectability.It may also improve the prognosis of advanced gastric cancer.
8.Elastic band resistance training improves the cardiac function in patients with acute myocardial infarction after percutaneous coronary intervention
Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2017;36(9):966-969
Objective To investigate the influence of elastic band resistance training on cardiac function in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods 64 hospitalized patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI from January 2016 to June 2016,were randomly divided into two groups:rehabilitation group (n=30) and control group (n =34).The control group received a routine treatment and guidance,rehabilitation group received elastic band training as add-on therapy to above routine treatment and guidance.After 6 months of therapy,cardiac function,the number of daily chest discomfort and its duration were compared between two groups.Results After six months of therapy,6MWT [(530.9 ± 39.9) m versus (328.3±26.8)m,(t=24.104,P<0.01)]and LVEF ≥50% [n(%)] (83.3% versus 50%)(x2 =7.850,P< 0.01)were significantly higher in the rehabilitation group than in control group,with statistically significant difference (t =24.104,x2 =7.850,all P < 0.01).In addition,an average number of daily chest discomfort (x2=11.563,P< 0.01) and its duration (x2=9.067,P< 0.05) were obviously improved in rehabilitation group than in control group,with statistically significant difference.Conclusions Anti-resistance training can significantly improve the cardiac function of patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI and can be applied in clinical practice.
