Objective To investigate the effect of fasting blood glucose control and its influencing factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in community.Methods 905 cases of patients with T2DM were collected in Rencheng District of Jining city according to the stratified cluster random sampling method.The general demographic characteristics and lifestyle of the subjects were collected by questionnaire survey,and the height,body weight,blood glucose,blood pressure and blood lipids were measured by physical examination.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of blood glucose control.Results A total of 905 subjects were recruited in the analysis.74.70％ of the subjects were aged 35 years above.The proportion reaching the control criteria of the blood glucose,blood pressure and cholesterol was 71.27％ (645),29.83％ (270) and 26.74％(242) of the subjects respectively.The influencing factors for blood glucose control in the subjects were age,duration of disease,blood pressure,weight,diet condition and psychological states and treatment compliance,and the differences were statistically significant(x2 =7.58,23.18,7.08,5.22,5.46,5.16,5.65,all P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age and duration of disease were the risk factors of blood glucose control in patients with T2DM.Standard blood pressure control was the protective factor that affects the effect of blood glucose control (OR=1.430,95％ CI=1.015-2.015,P＜0.05).Conclusion The blood glucose control of T2DM patients need to be improved comprehensively in community.By strengthening the control of blood glucose and blood pressure,establishing good habits of life behavior and improving the ability of self management,patients with T2DM can improve their quality of life.

Objective To study the expression of CD4+, CD25+ regulatory T cells and its significance in carcinoma of stomach. Methods Flow cytometry was used to quantify and analyze the results of CD4+, CD25 + regulatory T cells and CD8+ T cells in 76 patients with gastric cancer. Results CD4+, CD25+ regulatory T cells expression in gastric cancer tissue, adjacent tissues and control group are (1.2±0.9) %, (6.4±1.1) % and (4.1±0.8) %. The results have statistical significance (P<0.05). CD8+ T cells markedly de-creased in gastric cancer tissue, while CD4+ , CD25+ regulatory T cells increased. But this manifest did not happen in adjacent tissues.Conclusion CD4+, CD25+ regulatory T cells suppress gastric cancer though inhibiting CD8+ T cells.

Objective: To study the relationship between Framingham risk score for coronary artery disease (CAD) and cognitive function in healthy community elders.
Methods: A total of 276 healthy community elders were evaluated by Framingham score to predict the risk for suffering from CAD in 10 years. The subjects were divided into 3 groups. High risk group (the risk > 20%), n=46, Mid risk group (the risk at 10%-20%), n=76 and Low risk group (the risk < 10%), n=154. The cognitive function was measured by mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and China adult intelligence scale (CISA). The differences of cognitive function levels to 3 CAD risk groups were studied.
Results: With the increased CAD incidence from Low risk, Mid risk to High risk groups, the MMSE score reduced accordingly (26.9 ± 1.45) vs (24.3 ± 1.53) vs (22.2 ± 1.43), P=0.014. Pearson analysis presented that MMSE score was negatively related to Framingham risk score (r=-0.213, P<0.001). There were several elements of cognitive function related to Framingham risk score including MMSE score, question answering, grid filling, oral arithmetic and word distinguishing (r=-0.247), (r=-0.167), (r=-0.132), (r=-0.152) and (r-0.256), all P<0.05.
Conclusion: CAD risk level was negatively related to cognitive function, the higher Framingham risk score resulted in the lower cognitive function in healthy community elder subjects.

Objective To explore radiation-induced esophagitis and its related factors in the patients with local advanced non-small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ) which were treated with three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT). Methods From January 2001 to December 2008, 203 patients who suffered from stageⅢNSCLC were achieved, including 163 males and 40 females, with a median age of 63 years old, while 79 cases were in stageⅢa and 124 in stageⅢb . The equivalent median dose of tumor was 62 Gy( range of 50-78 Gy) . Among them, 74 cases were administered with radiotherapy alone, 45 with sequential radiotherapy and chemotherapy, 87 cases with concurrent radiochemotherapy. Radiation esophagitis was evaluated with RTOG standard. The dosimetric parameters was estimated from dose volume histogrma ( DVH ) . The clinical and dosimetric parameters of radiation esophagitis were evaluated by spearman correlatived univariate and Logistic multivariable analysis. Results After radiotherapy, out of 203 patients, 87 had acute radiation esophagitis(RE), 47 in grade 1, 37 in grade 2, and 3 in grade 3 RE. According to spearman correlatived analysis, the correlatived factors included ages, chemotherapy, GTV, PTV, the mean doses of PTV and lung, the max and mean dose of esophagus, V40 , V45 ,V50 ,V55 ,V60 , length of esophagus( total circumference) treated with 45 Gy ( LETT45 ) , and LETT50 ( r=-0. 162-0. 235,P<0. 05). All the 14 factors had good correlation with RE in univariate analysis. But for other factors,such as gender, site of tumor, smoking, T, N, clinical stage, equivalent dose of tumor, style of radiation, the mean dose of GTV, LETT55 and LETT60 , there were not correlation with ≥grade 2 RE with univariate analysis(r= -0. 106-0. 122, P>0. 05). There were 21 factors, such as gender, age, smoking, clinical stage, site of tumor, chemotherapy, GTV, PTV, mean dose of PTV and lung, max and mean dose of esophagus, V40 -V60 of esophagus, LETT45-60 , incorporated into multivariable analysis, only chemotherapy and V45 of esophagus were independent predicted factors(Wald=4. 626, 9?882, P<0. 05). Conclusions In local advanced NSCLC after 3D-CRT, chemotherapy ( especially concurrent radiochemotherapy) could increase radiation-induced esophagitis. The parameter of DVH could also be used to predict radiation-induced esophagitis, V45 of esophagus may be the most valuable predictor.

Objective To investigate the effect of folic acid combined with Helicobacter pylori (Hp) eradication therapy on chronic atrophic gastritis.Methods From December 2009 to March 2011 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University,184 patients with endoscopic and pathological diagnosis of chronic atrophic gastritis (90 Hp positive and 94 Hp negative) were selected.Hp positive patients were divided into group A and group B.Forty-three patients in group A were treated with standard triple Hp eradication therapy and follow by folic acid therapy for three months.Forty-seven patients in group B and Hp negative patients received three months of folic acid therapy.The clinical symptoms of each group were scored before treatment,one month after folie acid therapy and three months after folic acid therapy and analyzed by t test. Patients of each group received gastroscopy before treatment and three months after medicine withdrawal. Endoscopic scores,pathological scores and t test were recorded.The serum levels of pepsinogen ( Ⅰ,Ⅱ ) and gastrin 17 in venous blood of 55 Hp negative patients were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method before treatment and three months after medicine withdrawal.Results Compared with three months therapy (1.15 ± 0.03),after one month folic acid therapy (1.55 ± 0.04) was statistically significant in clinical symptoms score of all patients (t =8.18,P＜0.01).By the end of therapy,clinical symptom score of group A (1.06 ± 0.04) was lower than that of group B (1.56 ±0.08),and the difference was significant (t=6.00,P＜0.01).There was significant difference in endoscopic scores of all patients between before treatment (1.57±0.95) and after treatment (1.00±0.76,t=11.12,P＜0.01).The differences in each pathological score of all patients (inflammatory scoring,active scoring,atrophy scoring,intestinal metaplasia scoring,atypical hyperplasia degree scoring) were significant between before treatment and after treatment (t=5.51,6.90,7.53,6.34,2.90,respectively,all P＜0.01).The serum level of pepsinogen Ⅰ before treatment of 55 Hp negative patients [(1.03±0.19) nmol/L] was lower than that after treatment [(2.24±0.33) nmol/L],and the difference was statistically significant (t=3.19,P＜0.01).After treatment the level of gastrin 17 [(0.86±0.05) nmol/L] was higher than that before treatment [(0.47±0.05) nmol/L],and the difference was statistically significant ( t =5.33,P＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion Folic acid in combination with Hp eradication therapy can be favorable to atrophic gastritis,which may promote the secretion of pepsinogen and gastrin.

Objective To investigate the effect of stromal cell-derived factor-1α( SDF-1α) and interleukin ( IL-1β) on inducing vascular endothelial cells to express lymphatic phenotype .Methods The CRL-1730 cell line was cultured and treated with SDF-1αor IL-1β.The expression of endothelial cell markers and lymphatic endothelial cell markers were investigated with Real-time PCR, Western blotting and immunocytochemistry .Results In CRL-1730 cell line, endothelial cell markers such as voln willebrand factor ( vWF ) , VE-cadherin , vascular endothelial growth factor receptor(VEGFR)2, were dose dependently down-regulated after SDF-1αstimulation, while lymphatic phenotypes such as Prox-1, podoplanin and lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronan receptor-1(LYVE-1), were dose-dependently up-regulated after SDF-1αstimulation.The changes of vWF, VEGFR2 and podoplanin, Prox-1, LYVE-1 expression after IL-1βstimulation was similar to that after SDF-1αwhile expression of VE-cadherin changed slightly .Conclusion SDF-1αand IL-1βare able to induce vascular endothelial cell expressing lymphatic phenotype .

Objective To assess the therapeutic efficacy and prognostic factors in elderly patients with stage Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT).Methods A retrospective analysis of 124 stage Ⅲ NSCLC patients aged 70 or over who had received treatment with 3DCRT was conducted retrospectively in this study.There were 99 male and 25 female patients,with a median age of 74 years(range:70-84).The median dose was 60 Gy(range 50-72 Gy).Eighty-three patients were treated with radiotherapy alone,27 with sequential and 14 with concurrent radiochemotherapy.Results The end date of follow-up was August 30,2013.After 3DCRT,the 1-,3-and 5-year overall survival (OS) were 61.1％,23.8％ and13.2 ％,respectively,and the median survival time was 18 months.Univariate analysis revealed that gender,obstructive pneumonia,dosage,method of therapy and immediate effect were related to OS(x2 =3.957,6.398,7.147,12.307 and 11.035,respectively;P=0.047,0.011,0.008,0.002 and 0.001,respectively).Multi-variable analysis indicated that age,gender,obstructive pneumonia,dosage and method of therapy were independent prognostic factors for OS.The OS time was longer inpatients who were female,aged over 75,with no obstructive pneumonia or dosage≥ 60 Gy.Compared with radiotherapy alone,sequential radiochemotherapy increased OS while concurrent radiochemotherapy decreased OS.Conclusions Sex,age,obstructive pneumonia and dosage affect the survival of elderly stage Ⅲ NSCLC patients treated with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy.Concurrent radiochemotherapy should be considered with caution
