Objective To investigate the effect of hypertriglyceridemic waist(HTWC)phenotype on cognitive function in patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods According to the standard of plasma triglycerides concentration≥1.7 mmoL/L,waist circumference(WC)≥ 90 cm in men or ≥80 cm in women,304 patients with type 2 diabetes were divided into four groups:normal triglycerides and waist circumference group(group A,n =65),normal waist circumference and hypertriglyceridemia group (group B,n=53),abdominal obesity and normal triglycerides group(group C,n=114),and HTWC group(group D,n =72)for prospective studies.Patients in four groups were surveyed with Mini-mental state examination (MMSE)and Montreal cognitive assessment (MOCA).And changes of cognitive function among the four groups were compared.Results Total score for the MMSE was significantly lower in group D than in group A(27.1±1.9 vs.29.0±1.3,F=2.869,P=0.019).The subscales of attention and calculation(4.0± 1.4 vs.4.6±0.9,F=1.605,P=0.047)and recall(2.2± 0.9 vs.2.6±0.6,F=1.959,P=0.043) were significantly lower in group D than in group A.Total score for the MOCA was significantly lower in group D than in group A(23.4±3.9 vs.25.9±3.6,F =1.975,P=0.031).The subscales of visuospatial and executive(3.5 ± 1.4 vs.4.1 ± 0.9,F=1.537,P =0.048),attention(5.1±1.4 vs.5.7±0.9,F=1.660,P=0.048)and orientation(5.6±1.0 vs.6.0± 0.0,F=2.362,P=0.030)were significantly lower in group D than in group A.Conclusions There is a statistically more significant decline in cognitive function in patients with HTWC phenotype and the effective intervention and treatment are needed.

Objective To investigate the association between gene polymorphism of sortilinrelated receptor 1 (SORL1) and Alzheimer' s disease by detecting a series of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).Methods The Snapshot method was used to genotypc 6 SNPs (SNP10,19,23,24,25,27) in SORL1 and the distributions of allele and genotype of the 6 SNPs were compared between AD patients and healthy control individuals.Results There were significant differences in the genotype distributions of SNP19,23,24 and 25 between AD patients and control group (all P<0.01).Subjects with TT genotype in SNP19 had significantly lower risk for AD and was protective for AD (OR=0.089,95%CI:0.011-0.718,P<0.01).The AT genotype in SNP23 (OR=3.826,95%CI:1.388~10.544,P<0.01),CT genotype in SNP24(OR=5.935,95%CI:1.774-19.853,P<0.01)and CT genotype in SNP25(OR=5.754,95%CI:2.007-16.496,P<0.01)had higher risks for AD.Conclusions SORL1 gene variants of SNP19,23,24 and 25 might be the important risk factors for late-onset AD.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical application of prospective ECG-gated scan and adaptive cardio se-quence scan of dual-source CT coronary angiography.Methods 255 patients who underwent coronary CT angiography using a dual-source CT scanner were divided into two groups:group A underwent prospective scan,group B underwent retrospective scan.The two groups were further subdivided into low heart rate group and high heart rate group,recorded as A1(n=51),A2(n=89),B1(n=26), B2(n=89),respectively.Group A1 preceded with prospective ECG gated scan;group A2 performed with adaptive cardio sequence scan;group B1 and B2 underwent retrospective scan.All of them applied ATCM (automatic tube current modulation)technique. Effective dose was recorded.The image quality was assessed by two experienced radiologists with a four-point grading scale.Results The excellent or good image quality (score 1 and 2)of the four groups were above 95%,and no statistical differences in images scores was detected in A1 and B1 (P =0.726),A2 and B2 (P =0.079).Effective dose was significantly different in A1 and B1(P <0.001),A2 and B2 (P <0.001),and the former decreased 50% and 40% as compared with the latter.Conclusion Using prospective ECG gated scan and adaptive cardio sequence scan,assessable image quality of coronary artery can be acquired with dual source CT (heart rate<90 beast per minute),and radiation dose can be obviously reduced.

OBJECTIVETo observe the inhibitory effect of gefitineb on the proliferation and its inducing effect on the apoptosis of mouse I-10 Leydig testicular cancer cells in vitro.
METHODSWe treated I-10 Leydig testicular cancer cells of mice with gefitineb at 0, 1.25, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, and 40 µmol/L. Then we determined the inhibitory effect of gefitineb on the growth of the cells by MTT, detected their early and late apoptosis by Annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide double staining and Hoechst 33258 nuclear staining, respectively, and observed the expressions of apoptosis-related proteins Bcl-2, Bax and caspase 3/9 by Western blot.
RESULTSCompared with the blank control group, gefitineb significantly inhibited the proliferation of the I-10 cells at 10 and 20 µmol/L (P < 0.05). The survival rate of the cells was (32.4 ± 2.8)% (P < 0.01) and their early and late apoptosis rates were (26.7 ± 4.2)% and (59.33 ± 10.2)% in the 40 µmol/L group, significantly different from those in the control (P < 0.05 and P <0.01). In comparison with the blank control group, gefitineb at 10, 20, and 40 µmol/L increased the expression of pro-apoptotic protein Bax by (41.9 ± 7.1), (60.1 ± 9.8), and (69.0 ± 11.3)% (all P < 0.05), decreased that of apoptosis-inhibitory protein Bcl-2 by (50.3 ± 8.9), (63.9 ± 6.9), and (88.7 ± 13.9)% (all P < 0.05), and elevated that of the cleft proteins caspase-3 by (69.0 ± 6.9)% (P < 0.05), (71.5 ± 8.1)% (P < 0.05), and (110.9 ± 14.2)% (P < 0.01) and caspase-9 by (51.8 ± 4.9), (54.7 ± 6.7), and (43.8 ± 11.8)% (all P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONGefitineb can increase the cytotoxicity of I-10 Leydig testicular cancer cells of mice and induce their apoptosis via the mitochondria-mediated apoptosis signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effects of acupuncture at "Tianshu" (ST 25) on electro-activity and mechanical motility at different phases of migrating motor complex (MMC) during jejunal digestion period in rats with detached jejunum, so as to explore the effect and mechanism of acupuncture on regulating intestinal movement.
METHODSSixteen adult SD rats were selected. Electrodes were implanted in the serous membrane of intestinal smooth muscl.e and high-sensitivity sensors of strain gauge were sutured on serosal surface, and then the rat was anesthetized and its jejunum was detached. Electro-acriviry and mechanical motility of jejunal smooth muscle were recorded simultaneously. Acupuncture was applied at "Tianshu" (ST 25) at MMC I , MMCII and MMC III, respectively, to observe its influence on electro-activity and mechanical motility.
RESULTSAt phase of MMC I, there was no obvious change of the fast wave before and after the acupuncture, while the frequency and amplitude of slow wave and mechanical motility were both significantly decreased compared with baseline (P < 0.01). At MMCII-Ill, the frequency and amplitude of fast wave, slow wave and motility were all significantly decreased compared with baseline (P < 0.01). Acupuncture at "Tianshu" (ST 25) had prohibited effects on electro-activity and mechanical motility of jejunal smooth muscle in rats with detached jejunum.
CONCLUSIONAcupuncture at "Tianshu" (ST 25) has obvious prohibited effects on electro-acrivity and mechanical motility at MMC I , MMC II and MMC III time phases in rats with detached jejunum. The possible mechanism is that acupuncture at "Tianshu" (ST 25) could prohibit jejunum movement through reflex path of skin-sympathetic.
