Objective To analyze the etiology of diabetes ketoacidosis(DKA) in children with type 1 diabetes.Methods Totally 850 person-time of type 1 diabetes children in recent 20 years in our hospital were selected as studied subjects. Two hundred and twenty-five person-time of them were hospitalized because of DKA.Fifty-six cases (131 person-time) were due to recurrent DKA.These patients were classified into 2 groups according to onset time: group 1(diagnosed from 1982 to 1991) and group 2(diagnosed from 1992 to 2001).Results The analysis of recurrent DKA suggested that 71.8 % of them was due to infection, 20.4 % of them did not obey diabetic diet and 9.2 % of them discontinued insulin injection. The etiology of DKA showed no difference in two groups. The number of recurrent DKA in two groups was significantly different (P

Objective To learn the control status of iodine deficiency disorders in Baoji City of Shaanxi Province.Methods From 2009 to 2011,according to the National Iodized Salt Monitoring Program,the iodized salt was monitored,and thyroid was examined in 12 counties(areas) of Baoji City.According to rural and urban area stratification,60 children aged 8 to 10 were selected in each county(district),and their urine samples were collected for determination of iodine content.In 2011,per capita daily salt intake was surveyed by the three weighing method at children's home whose urine was collected.Chencang Area,Fufeng County and Taibai County,representatives of Baoji City different geomorphic features were selected for investigation of water iodine,and urinary iodine of pregnant and lactating women,and 15 people were selected in each county (district).Results From 2009-2011,in the 12 counties(areas) in Baoji City,the coverage rate of iodized salt was all 100.00％(3468/3468); the qualified rate of iodized salt and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt were all ＞ 99.00％.Children's goiter rate was 3.41％(87/2548),3.06％(77/2520) and 3.33％(84/2520),and they were all less than that of the national standard (＜ 5％).Medians of urinary iodine of 8-10 years old children were 368.20,293.80 and 332.50 μg/L,respectively,and the ratios of urine iodine ≥300 μg/L were accounted for 66.42％ (797/1200),48.05％(692/1440) and 56.67％(816/1440),respectively.Median urinary iodine of pregnant women was 301.81 μg/L and lactating women was 329.79 μg/L.A total of 1116 households were investigated,the median of per capita daily salt intake was 8.9 g.Eighteen water samples were collected,range of water iodine value were 0.60-10.25 μg/L.Conclusions Iodine nutrition in general population of Baoji City is exceeded the optimum level,and the current iodized salt concentration has some down space,but fully consideration should be taken on iodine needs in different iodine deficiency areas and among different groups of people.

Objective To evaluate the associations of human leukocyte antigen(HLA)-DQ gene with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome(APS),type 1 diabetic mellitus(T1DM) and autoimmune thyroid disease(AITD).Methods Fifteen cases of APS,29 cases of T1DM and 40 cases of AITD were selected as research subjects,while 27 healthy children were selected as controls.The DQA1 and DQB1 alleles were determined by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and sequence-based typing method.The difference of their frequency in children and adolescents was analyzed.Results Compared with controls,APS and T1DM patients had increased frequency of subjects with DQA1*0301,0501(all P

Objective To investigate the prognostic factors of life and functional outcome of the first hemiparetic stroke patients. Methods One hundred and eighteen stroke subjects were registered prospectively. The Barthel index (BI) , Rankin scale (RS) , Mortricity index(MI) , Mini-mental state examination (MMSE) , Montgomery-Asberg depression scale (MADRS) and a scale of general state and risk factors were used to evaluate at the 48th hour, the 15th day and the 90th day after stroke. Results The patients' performance, as demonstrated by their scores with all the evaluation instruments, changed significantly at all the time points of evaluation after stroke (P ＜0.05). There was no significant difference between the performance at the 48th hour and the 15th day after stroke ( P ＞ 0.05 ). But at the 90th day after stroke, the activity of daily living performance and the depression status recovered significantly (P ＜ 0.01 ). Logistic regression analysis showed that, such factors as pneumonia, urinary incontinence within 48th hour and deep sensation disturbance might adversely influence patients' activity of daily living performance at the 90th day after stroke; the muscle strength of upper extremities at the 48th hour, and MMSE scores at the 15th day after stroke acted as the protective factors. Conclusions The stroke patients improved significantly with regard to their clinical and functional manifestations when evaluated 90 days after stroke onset. The main factors influencing the activity of daily living performance 90 days after stroke onset included deep sensation disturbance,pneumonia, urinary incontinence and muscles strength of upper extremities at 48th hour, and MMSE scores at the 15th days after onset.

Objective To evaluate the effects of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) on the renal function and blood coagulation of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods 151 patients with acute pancreatits were divided into treatment group (treated with HES, n=62) and control group (treated with crystalloid solutions, n =89). The two groups were compared by retrospective analysis of the indices such as serum creatinine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (Bun), platelet count(Plt), prothrombin time activity (PTA), international normalized ratio (INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and fibrinogen (FIB) before and after treatment. Results Before hospitalization, there were insignificant differences in respect of Scr and Bun in the two groups respectively. But at discharge, Scr and Bun in the treatment group were significantly increased (P<0.05), while Bun was significantly decreased 24 h right after infusion of crystalloid solutions in the control group (P<0.05). There were no differences between the two groups in terms of Scr and Bun. As for indices of coagulation, APTT in the treatment group was significantly increased after infusion of HES (P<0.05). The hospital stay in the treatment group was longer than the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusions HES may adversely affect renal function and intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation of patients with AP. Renal function and blood coagulation should be monitored when using HES.

Objective To investigate the effect of acupuncture at Zusanli, Sanyinjiao and Danzhong on mammary estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) expressions in rats with dimethylbenzanthracine (DMBA)-induced mammary cancer. Methods One hundred and twenty female SD rats aged 6-8 weeks were randomized into a model group of 60 rats and a blank group of 30 rats. The model group received an oral gavage of DMBA for model making. The blank group received an oral gavage of equal volume of sesame oil. At 15 weeks after model making, the model group of rats was randomized into treatment and control groups. The treatment group received acupuncture at Zusanli, Sanyinjiao and Danzhong, and the control and blank groups, only the same grasp and release. After the completion of acupuncture treatment (twenty-seventh week), abdominal venous blood was taken and serum tumor markers were determined by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. Tumor masses were counted and their shapes were recorded. The mass was taken and its height, maximum diameter and vertical diameter were measured using a 1 mm precision vernier caliper. Pathological changes in tumor tissues, and ER and PR positive areas and mean optical densities were observed under an Olympus optical microscope.Results There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in the average number and volume of mammary tumors between the treatment group and the control or blank group (P<0.01,P<0.05) and between the control and blank groups (P<0.01). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in the concentrations of various tumor markers (CA724, CA125, CA199, AEP, CA15-3, CEA and CA50) between the treatment or control group and the blank group (P<0.01,P<0.05) and between the control and blank groups (P<0.01). There was a statistically significant post-treatment difference in CA15-3 concentration between the treatment and control groups (P<0.01). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in ER and PR positive areas and mean optical densities between the treatment group and the control or blank group (P<0.01) and between the control and blank groups (P<0.01).Conclusions Acupuncture can reduce the occurrence of rat DMBA-induced mammary tumor (including the number and volumes of the tumors). The mechanism of its action may be related to decreasing the concentrations of tumor markers CA724, CA125, CA199, CA15-3, AEP, CEA and CA50 and especially to decreasing CA15-3 concentration, and ER and PR positive areas and mean optical densities.

The stability and physiological activity of the wine yeast during long-term tank to tank culture, customary enological practice, were studied under the production conditions. The results indicted that, during about one month of tank to tank culture, the yeast cells could remain the fermentative activity and the fine characters selected of the initiative yeast. On the other hand, it was also observed that, yeast cells'alcoholic fermentation of tank to tank culture might be more active than that of the initiative yeast, perhaps due to the selection by grape musts.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics of the coal workers' pneumoconiosis( CWP) complicated with both tuberculosis and nosocomial infection of stenotrophomonas maltophilia. METHODS: The clinical data of 36 CWP patients complicated with tuberculosis and nosocomial infection of stenotrophomonas maltophilia were collected and retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: The results of sputum cultured for more than 3 times showed positive stenotrophomonas maltophilia. The main clinical manifestations were cough,sputum,fever and wet rale of lung. Most of the chest X-rays showed light and patchy infiltrated shadows. Drug susceptibility testing indicated that this kind of bacteria was extensively drug-resistant. The drug resistance rates to imipenem,cefepime,aztreonam and cefoperazone were 100. 0%,96. 1%,94. 5% and 89. 8%,respectively. The sensitivity of patients to sulfanilamide methyl isopropyl pbo, ciprofloxacin,levofloxacin and gentamicin were > 60. 0%. After antituberculosis therapy combined with 2 or more sensitive antibiotics treatment based on the sputum cultured results,there were 21 cases( 58. 3%) cured,2 cases( 5. 6%) improved,3 cases( 8. 3%) ineffective and 10 cases( 27. 8%) dead. CONCLUSION: The clinical features of tuberculopneumoconiosis combined with the nosocomial infection of stenotrophomonas maltophilia are un-typical. This disease is severely antibiotic-resistant.Timely pathogenic bacteria culture and drug sensitivity test have important significance in diagnosis and treatment.
