Objective Hyperglycemia was common during acute myocardiai infarction (AMI). This study investigated the impact of stress hyperglycemia on in-hospital outcomes in patients without diabetes hospitalized with AMI. Methods The study included 107 patients with AMI without diabetes, who were admitted to 81 hospital of PLA of Nanjing, China from January 2000 to May 2010. The in-hospital mortality and in-hospital complications were analyzed retrospectively. The exclusion criteria were: (1 ) patients < 18 years old; (2) patients with history of diabetes; (3) patients who initiated anti-hyperglycemic therapy during their hospital stay though without previously diagnosed diabetes; (4) patients with non-cardiovascular causes for AMI; (5) patients with hepatic failure, kidney failure, serious lung illnesses and end stage of malignant tumour; (6) patients administrated with steroid treatment recently and those with some diseases which had dramatic effect on glucose metabolism such as hyperthyroidism and cushing syndrome. Patients were categorized according to FBG levels into4 mutually exclusive groups; <7.0 mmol/L, ≥7.0 but <8.0 mmol/L, 8.0 to< 11. 1 mmol/L and ≥11.1 mmol/L. The Statistical Package for Stata, version 9.2 was used for statistical analysis. According to corresponding data analysis of /-test, ANOVA, rank test and exact propability were used respectively. Univariate logistics regression analysis was conducted followed by multivariate logistics regression analysis on significant variables. Results The incidence rate of stress hyperglycemia in patients with AMI without diabetes was 43. 9% (n =47). In non-diabetic patients, the mortality of the group of FBG≥7. 0 mmol/L was significantly higher than the group of FBG < 7. 0 mmol/L, which are 27.66% and 6.67%(P=0.0063)respectively,OR=5.35(95%CI 1.61 - 17.75,P = 0.0061). In-hospital complications for example lung infection, congestive heart failure, serious arrhythmias and acute cerebrovas-cular events were increased significantly in AMI patients with stress hyperglycemia. Multivariate logistic regression analysis for mortality were performed adjusting for risk factors which demonstrated FBG was a independent risk factors of in-hospital death , OR = 1.56(95%CIl.09 -2.23). Conclusions In-hospital mortality and in-hospital complications were significantly increased in patients with AMI without diabetes which developed stress hyperglycemia. Stress hyperglycemia was of great prognostic value for short-outcomes of AMI.

Objective To explore the curative effect of stomatitis spray combined with 3M liquid dressing on degree II red buttocks in infants and summarize key points of nursing care. Methods From April 2012 to June 2016, 64 infants with degree II red buttocks were treated in our department. According to the admission time, the infants were divided into control and experiment groups in equal number. The control group was treated with zinc oxide ointment, and the experiment group with stomatitis spray combined with 3M liquid dressing. The curative effect, total effective rate, and wound healing time were compared after treatment between the groups. Results The curative effect and total effective rate of red buttocks in the experiment group were significantly better than those of the control group (P<0.05). Moreover, the wound healing time in the experiment group was obviously shorter than that of the control (P<0.05). Conclusions Compared to zinc oxide ointment, the stomatitis spray combined with and 3M liquid dressing is more effective in the treatment of severe red buttocks of the infants. Moreover, the latter is advantageous in wound healing time, compliance, treatment, and curative effect, which indicates its potential application in clinic.

Patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI) are often with elevated blood glucose level when admitted to hospital,this finding is associated with poor prognosis regardless of a history of diabetes.Though numerous studies have addressed some of the questions in this field,many critically important questions are still poorly understood and under debate.This article summarized current findings in hyperglycemia and its potential link withadverse outcomes in AMI patients,and addressed some of the existing controversies in this field.

Objective To explore the effect of high glucose on the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in rat glomerular endothelial cells and its probable mechanism.Methods Rat glomerular endothelial cells were stimulated by culture medium containing 5 mmol/L or 30 mmol/L glucose (with or without pre-treatment of captopril and chymostatin) for 12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h.ELISA,real-time PCR,Western blotting and confocal immunofluorescence microscopy were employed to examine the follows:the angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ ) concentration in cell lysate and the culture medium; the mRNA levels of angiotensinogen and renin; the protein levels of angiotensin Ⅱtype 1 receptor (AT1R),angiotensin Ⅱ type 2 receptor (AT2R),renin and angiotensinogen in cell lysate; localization of intracellular AT1R,AT2R and renin.Results Exposure to high glucose for only 12 h or 72 h resulted in a significant increase of Ang Ⅱ levels in the culture medium compared with control cells (P<0.05),but only exposure to high glucose for 72 h resulted in a significant increase of Ang Ⅱ levels in the cell lysate compared with control cells (P<0.05).However,exposure to high glucose for 24 h or 48 h had no effects on Ang Ⅱ levels in the cell lysate or culture medium.The captopril and chymostatin were able to antagonize high glucose induced Ang Ⅱ generation when exposure time was 72 h but not 12 h.Exposure to high glucoseincreased the mRNA level of angiotensinogen,but reduced the level of renin mRNA,meanwhile angiotensinogen protein increased,and AT1 protein reduced,but protein levels of AT2R and renin were unchanged.However,the transformation of AT2R from the cell nucleus to cytoplasm was observed.Conclusions High glucose can activate the local renin-angiotensin system in rat glomerular endothelial cells,and the probable mechanism may contribute to ACE and non-ACE pathways.The effects of high glucose on glomerular endothelial cells may also involve in the substrate and receptors of Ang Ⅱ.

Objective To investigate the virulence role of ompT of Escherichia coli in the patho-genesis of neonatal meningitis .Methods Adhesive abilities of the parent strain E 44 and the isogenic ompT-deletion mutant strain ( E44 ∶ΔompT) to human brain microvascular endothelial cells were evaluated in in vitro model.Low-copy-number plasmid pST containing ompT locus and point mutant plasmid pST 85 were transferred into E44 ∶ΔompT to construct the complemented mutant strain , and its adhesive ability was ana-lyzed.Influences of ompT deletion on E44 strain in its ability of bacterial intestinal colonization and ability of penetrating the blood-brain barrier were determined . Results In comparison with the parent strain , E44 ∶ΔompT strain showed significantly impaired adhesive ability to human brain microvascular endothelial cells, which could be partly restored by inserting the complementary plasmids of pST and pST 85.Deletion of the ompT did not affect Escherichia coli K1 in normal intestinal colonization in in vivo model.E44 ∶ΔompT strain could induce bacteremia , which was similar to that induced by the parent strain , but its ability of crossing the blood-brain barrier was significantly declined .Conclusion The study demonstrate that ompT plays an important role as the virulence element of Escherichia coli in binding to brain microvascular endothe-lial cells and penetrating the blood-brain barrier .Further study should be performed to investigate the influ-ences of OmpT proteinase on the virulence of Escherichia coil.
