BACKGROUND: Cytridinie triphosphate(CTP) is predominantly used for cerebrovascualr accident and its sequelae, brain concussion, cerebral arteriosclerosis, senile dementia. What about its effect on diabetic peripheral neuropathies?OBJECTIVE: To observe the efficacy of cytridine triphosphate in improving nerve function and nerve conduction velocity in diabetic peripheral neuropathy.DESIGN: A prospective and randomized and controlled trial based on the patients.SETTING: Endocrine department of a military medical university.SUBJECTS: Totally 50 patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, hospitalized in Endocrine Department of Xijing Hospital of Fourth Military Medical University, were enrolled in this study from September 1999 to February 2000. All the patients were according to the including criteria, including 28 male and 22 female patients. They were randomly divided into treatment and control group averagely. Informed consent was obtained from all patients.METHODS: The 25 patients in treatment group received daily intravenous injection of 60 mg CTP. The other 25 in the control group received 100 mg vitamin B1 and 500 μg vitamin B12 and 20 mg scopolamine(654-2) and 100 mL saline as well every day. The treatment lasted for 14 days. The nerve conduction velocity was orthodromicly measured by surface electrode.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Nerve conduction velocity in both groups.RESULTS: After treatment, the nerve conduction velocities of median nerve,ulnar nerve, fibular nerve, tibial nerve in the treatment group were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05- 0. 01 ) . The neurological symptom and sign score in the treatment group(1. 4 ± 0.5, 3.0 ± 0.5) was less than that in the control group(2.6±0.3, 4.0±0.3) (t=3.255,2.005, P <0.05).CONCLUSION: CTP is effective in improving nerve conduction velocity in diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Objective: To investigate the effects of nerve growth factor(NGF) on the differentiation of goat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) into osteoblasts. Methods: The goat BMSCs were cultured in vitro and the marker proteins on the BMSCs surface were identified by flow cytometry. The third passage of BMSCs were randomly divided into blank control group, osteoblasts control group, NGF group and experimental group. The activities of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (0C) were examined and the of von Kossa staining method was used to observe the osteogenic differentiation. Results: CD90 and CD105 were strong positive while the CD34 and CD45 were negatively expressed in BMSCs. The activities of ALP and OC was significantly higher in the experimental group than that in the other three groups(P<0.05). The staining of von Kossa was positive and the black calcium nodules were appeared in the the osteoblasts control group. The number and the area of the calcium nodules were greater in the experimental group. But there were no significant differences of each index between the NGF group and the blank control group. Conclusion: NGF can′t induce goats BMSCs to osteoblasts, but can clearly promote the differentiation of goats BMSCs.

Objective To investigate the effects of metabolically correlated factors on pig renal tubule in cellular level by observing effects of glucose,insulin and uric acid on activity of haemachrome oxygenase in renal tubular epithelial cells.Methods Pig near renal tubular cell line(LLC-PK1) was selected as experimental object.After stimulating cells respectively with glucose(5,10,22,33mmol/L),uric acid(0,0.1,0.2,0.4mmol/L);and insulin(0,10~(-9),0~(-8),10~(-7)mol/L) in different concentrations for 48 hours,the activity of HO-1 within the cells was determined.Results In uric acid group the activity of HO-1 was significantly increased in a concentration-dependent manner,while in glucose and insulin groups,the activity of HO-1 did not change.Conclusion After LLC-PK1 was stimulated by uric acid of different concentrations,HO-1 was induced evidently,which indicates that uric acid might affect oxidative stress in renal tubule cell line.

Objective:To investigate the effects of dietary management during labor process on pregnancy outcome of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 122 pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus who delivered at the Wenzhou People's Hospital between January and December 2022. Based on their dietary management methods, these patients were divided into an observation group and a control group, with 61 cases in each group. The control group underwent routine dietary management, whereas the observation group received dietary management during labor process. The labor process indicators and delivery outcomes between the two groups were compared.Results:The energy intake in the observation group was (75.36 ± 9.54) kcal/h, which was significantly higher than (57.23 ± 8.12) kcal/h in the control group ( t = -11.30, P < 0.05). Furthermore, the highest blood glucose levels, hyperglycemia ratios, and proportions of insulin usage in the observation group were (6.74±0.99) mmol/L, 4.92% (3/61), and 3.28% (2/61), respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(7.72 ± 1.05) mmol/L, 40.98% (25/61), 21.31% (13/61), t = 5.30, χ2 = 22.43, 9.20, all P < 0.05]. Additionally, the observation group had significantly shorter first stage labor time [(418.66 ± 114.26) minutes], active stage time [(281.37 ± 129.65) minutes], and second stage labor time [38.14 ± 17.25) minutes] compared with the control group [(519.93 ± 132.45) minutes, (358.69 ± 153.26) minutes, (51.37 ± 18.62) minutes, t = 4.52, 3.00, 4.07, all P < 0.05]. The incidence of neonatal hypoglycemia in the observation group was 1.64% (1/61), which was significantly lower than 16.39% (10/61) in the control group ( χ2 = 6.39, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Dietary management during the labor process can effectively improve the blood sugar level of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus, as well as enhance the maternal and fetal outcomes.

Objective Developing a new type of full-face respiratory protective mask for nuclear facility sites to enhance the sound transmission function and improve the facial adaptability. Methods Combined with feedback from on-site practical needs, this study utilized finite element simulation and ergonomic design methods to investigate the voice transmission units of full-face masks and the facial features of workers at key nuclear facilities. Based on the research results, a new full-face respiratory protection mask structure was designed. Results The optimized structure of passive thin film voice transmission unit significantly enhanced voice transmission efficiency, reducing average voice transmission loss by approximately 70% compared to the control group using thin plate units of equivalent thickness. The existing facial feature test panels insufficiently cover and unevenly classify the facial features of workers at key nuclear facilities. In this study, a specialized test panel based on measurement data achieved a total coverage of 98.5% with high distribution uniformity within each class, providing effective guidance for redesigning full-face mask structural parameters. In comparison to foreign products currently utilized in nuclear facilities, the newly designed full-face mask structure exhibited excellent tightness and structural safety and reliability, and can be cleaned, decontaminated, and reused. Conclusion The results of this study provide significant guidance for improving and optimizing full-face respiratory protection mask used at nuclear facilities, as well as promoting domestic production of high-quality full-face respiratory protection masks.
