Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disorder, affecting 10%-24% of the general population, and the incidence is much higher (70% -80% ) in type 2 diabetic patients. Recent studies indicate that fatty liver is an emerging problem in the Asia-Pacific region and China. The community prevalence of NAFLD in Shanghai is 15%. A large body of evidences suggests that NAFLD is the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome. NAFLD is not only associated with the metabolic syndrome, it also predicts the development of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The liver is a central organ for controlling and regulating glucose and lipids metabolism; intrahepatocellular lipid accumulation plays a key role in the development of metabolic-ally related disorders. It is crucial that specialists, especially endocrinologists, and practising clinicians should be aware of the strong association between NAFLD and increased risks of diabetes and CVD, NAFLD should be diagnosed correctly and defined timely in regarding its role as risk factors of underlying diabetes and CVD.

The progress in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) research has shown an important role of hepatic steatosis in triggering insulin resistance and glucose/lipid metabolic disorders.As an early reversible therapeutic target for metabolic diseases,NAFLD has attracted increasing attention from endocrinologists and gastroenterologists,as well as deeping the studies in this field.Based on the recent progress in NAFLD research,this review mainly presents the new understanding and concept of NAFLD,discusses the features of the new guidelines and concensus for NAFLD treatment,and introduces some updated developments in NAFLD diagnosis and therapy.Furthermore,future directions of NAFLD research are also predicted in the article.

Researches in type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease have been made in recent years.The intimate connection between these two diseases has been analysed and explored.Whether non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is a hepatic complication of type 2 diabetes remains to be elucidated.The poor outcome of liver disease in patients with type 2 diabetes should be emphasized.

An early diagnosis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease ( NAFLD) is meaningful to the prevention and cure of diabetes and cardiovascular disease ( CVD). The sensitivity and specificity of qualitative methods vary greatly, and these methods do not quantify liver fat content. Pathological diagnosis is a quantitative method, but it is invasive and inappropriate for clinical application. The establishment of H Magnetic Resonance Spectrum (1H MRS) opened up a brand-new era for noninvasive liver fat quantification. This review systemically introduces the new progress in noninvasive diagnosis of NAFLD.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of Holter monitor(DCG) in the diagnosis and treatment of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).Methods According to NT-proBNP ＞ 2 000pg/mL,left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤40％,New York Heart Association (NYHA) rated Ⅲ-Ⅳ,67 patients with DCM were divided into the high risk group and nonhigh risk group.All kinds of arrhythmia patients proportion was compared between the two groups,in order to understand the risk factors of DCM and arrhythmias.Results In high risk group,18 cases had ventricular tachycardia,the incidence rate was 66.7％,which was significantly higher than that of non high risk group (2 cases,5.0％) (x2 =29.271,P ＜ 0.01).While other arrhythmia,atrial premature beats,single premature ventricular contraction,atrial fibrillation and so on,had no statistical difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The DCM patients with various types of arrhythmia,ventricular tachycardia in patients directly influence the severity and prognosis,Holter monitor has an irreplaceable role.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with obesity, type 2 diabetes,dyslipidemia, hypertension, and metabolic syndrome.It likely represents hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome. The prevalence of NAFLD has been estimated to be 20％-30％ in the general population. However, it is much higher in type 2 diabetic patients. Several epidemiological studies indicate that NAFLD is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease( CVD), which is independent of underlying cardiometabolic risk factors. This suggests that NAFLD may also be actively involved in the pathogenesis. The possible molecular mediators linking NAFLD and atherosclerosis(AS) include the release of pro-atherogenic factors by oxidative stress and inflammation as well as atherogenic dyslipidemia, abnormal adipose factors, and insulin resistance, finally aggravating progression of CVD. In this article, the relationship and possible mechanisms between NAFLD and AS are reviewed.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)has become one of the most common liver diseases in the world.Considering the important role of insulin resistance in its pathogenic mechanisms,insulin sensitizers are becoming the promising pharmacological strategies for NAFLD.We collected and analyzed the relevant articles in recent years and found that pioglitazone,rosiglitazone and metformin could improve liver enzymes and insulin sensitivity of NAFLD.However,only pioglitazine was supported in ameliorating liver histology by envidences from randomized,double-blinded,controlled clinical trials.There were no much obvious adverse effects in NAFLD patients who received insulin senitizers.Small or medium samples and no more than 2 years of treatment course may be the major limitation of current studies.Future information derived from well-designed running trials will be useful in defining the clinical implications of insulin sensitizers in the treatment of NAFLD.

?AlM:To analyze the related risk factors of retinopathy in pregnancy induced hypertension syndrome ( PlHS) .
?METHODS:Two hundred and sixty-two cases with the PlHS retinal lesions were selected, and the correlation between PlHS stage, age, body mass, albuminuria, mean arterial blood pressure, hematocrit value and retinopathy in PlHS were observed.
?RESULTS: Retinal stage increased with the increase of the grade of PlHS (χ2regression=52. 13, P<0. 05);there was no statistical significance between age and retinopathy (χ2regression=6. 52, P>0. 05);the greater body mass was, the higher the degree of retinopathy was (χ2regression=22. 97, P<0. 05 ); albuminuria was associated with retinopathy (χ2regression = 40. 16, P<0. 05 ); the degree of retinopathy increased with the increase of mean arterial blood pressure (χ2regression = 44. 38, P < 0. 05 ); the degree of retinopathy increased with the increase of hematocrit value (χ2regression=52. 73, P<0. 05).
?CONCLUSlON: PlHS stage, body mass, albuminuria, mean arterial blood pressure, hematocrit value are the related risk factors of retinopathy in PlHS.

Objective:To assess the mental health status of medical students.Method:Approximately 456 students were tested with scl-90.Result: The medical students had more problems than the national norm on obsessive compulsive,eccentric,psychosis.female were inferior to males in somatic,interpersonal sensitivity,depression,anxiety,phobic anxiety,eccentric factor.The mental health level of high grade is betfer than low grade.Conclusion: Mental health education should be developed according to mental characteristics of medical students.
