ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of soluble β-amyloid protein (Aβ) oligomers on the expression levels of insulin signaling transduction cascades-associated proteins including insulin receptor ( InsR),insulin receptor substrate-Ⅰ( IRS-Ⅰ) and protein kinase B (PKB) of rat hippocampal neurons,and the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in depth.MethodsSoluble Aβ oligomers (5 μl) were injected into the lateral ventriculus of the AD group by a microinjector under the stereotaxic apparatus.Normal saline solution ( NS,5 μl) was injected into the NS group in the same way,and the control group received the puncture without injection. It was repeated after 1 week and the behavior of all rats was evaluatedbyY-mazetestafter2weeks.Thenhippocampuswasremovedandunderwent immunohistochemical staining to detect the expression of proteins associated.ResultsCompared with the other groups,learning and memory ability of the Aβ-treated rats were impaired.To be specific,the times of learning were increased and the times of memory were decreased. However,there was no significant difference between the NS group and the control group.Besides,the expression levels of InsR,IRS-Ⅰ,and PKB were decreased in AD group showing that a mean optical density of staining on these proteins ( InsR:0.12 ± 0.0l ; IRS-Ⅰ:0.14 ± 0.02; PKB:0.12 ± 0.03 ) was reduced in contrast with that in the NS group and the control group.Whereas there was no significant difference between the NS group (0.40 ± 0.02,0.39 ± 0.06,0.38 ± 0.03,mean difference:- 0.13,- 0.13,- 0.17,all P ＜ 0.05 ) and the control group (0.38 ± 0.07,0.35 ± 0.03,0.35 ± 0.06,mean difference:- 0.15,- 0.07,- 0.73,all P ＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionsSoluble Aβ1-42 induced learning and memory disability of the rats.The mechanism might be that Aβ can lead to disorders of the insulin signaling transduction pathway of hippocampal neurons and decrease the expression levels of the proteins in the pathway.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of cognitive impairment in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM),and to analyze the correlation of T2DM with its risk factors and serum insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels Methods A total of 78 hospitalized patients with T2DM at our hospital from November 2011 to March 2012 were divided into the cognitive impairment group (n=39) and the non-cognitive impairment group (n=39) according to Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores,and general clinical data were collected.Levels of blood lipids,glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc),fasting blood glucose (FBG),fasting blood insulin (FBI) and other biochemical indicators were detected,insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) scores were calculated,and serum IGF-1 levels were determined by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results The education levle was (8.94±4.13) years for the cognitive impairment group and (12.65[2.50) years for the non-cognitive impairment group,and there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P=0.004).HbAlc levels were (9.69 ± 1.25) and (7.96 ± 1.31) for the cognitive impairment group and the non-cognitive impairment group,respectively,and were statistically difference between the two groups (P =0.001).Serum IGF-1 levels were (122.60±11.56) mmol/L and (139.32±9.57) mmol/L in the cognitive impairment group and the non-cognitive impairment group,respectively,and had a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P =0.037).Additionally,compared with the non-cognitive impairment group,scores on visuospatial ability,naming,language,abstraction,delayed recall and orientation were lower in the cognitive impairment group (P＜[0.05 or 0.01).Moreover,MoCA scores were negatively correlated with TC,LDL-C,TG,HbAlc,FBI levels and HOMA IR (r=0.498,-0.411,0.414,-0.452,-0.449,-0.539,respectively,P＜0.05 for all),and positively correlated with education lcvcl and IGF 1 level (r=0.579 and 0.491,respectively,P＜0.05 for both) Conclusions Cognitive impairment caused by T2DM is prominent in visuospatial ability,language,memory and executive functions,and is closely related to poor education,poor glycemic control,dyslipidemia and insulin resistance.Furthermore,decreased serum IGF-1 levels might be a risk factor for diabetic cognitive impairment.

Objective To compare the consistency between interstitial fluid glucose and arterial blood glucose in septic shock patients with different tissue perfusion levels.Methods A prospective investigative study was conducted. Sixty-one septic shock patients with ages above 18 years old admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine of Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from April 2013 to December 2013 were enrolled. The real-time continuous glucose monitoring system (RTCGMS) and arterial blood gas analyzer were used to measure the patients' interstitial fluid glucose and arterial blood glucose, and according to the criteria of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the median of relative absolute difference (Median RAD), the consistency between interstitial fluid glucose and arterial blood glucose was calculated. Based on the lactate (Lac) level and pulse oxygen perfusion index (PI), the septic shock patients were divided into groups with different degrees of tissue perfusion, the consistency between the interstitial fluid glucose and arterial blood glucose among septic shock patients with different degrees of tissue perfusion was compared by using Bootstrap re-sampling technique.Results Negative correlation existed between PI and Lac (r= -0.272,P < 0.001), which showed the opposite change tendency of organism tissue perfusion. In patients with Lac > 8 mmol/L, their consistency between interstitial fluid glucose and arterial blood glucose was better than that in those with Lac > 2-4 mmol/L, and the 95% credibility intervals (CI) of ISO standardized deviation value was 0.026-38.710 (P < 0.05). In patients with PI ≤ 0.7%, their consistency between interstitial fluid glucose and arterial blood glucose was better than that in those with PI > 0.7%-1.4%, the 95%CI of median RAD difference value was 0.002-0.076, and the 95%CI of ISO standardized deviation value was -27.000 to -0.583 (allP < 0.05); in patients with PI > 3.0%, their consistency between interstitial fluid glucose and arterial glucose was better than that in those with PI ≤ 0.7%, PI > 0.7%-1.4% and PI > 1.4%-3.0%, and the 95%CI of ISO standardized deviation values were 3.322-28.302, 11.988-40.265 and 5.170-33.333 respectively (allP < 0.05).Conclusions When septic shock patients were under low tissue perfusion (Lac > 8 mmol/L or PI ≤ 0.7%), the worse the tissue perfusion, the better the consistency between interstitial fluid glucose and arterial blood glucose; when septic shock patients were under normal local tissue perfusion (PI > 3.0%), the better the local tissue perfusion, the better the consistency between interstitial fluid glucose and arterial blood glucose.

Objective To research the effect to the semen quality of the three operation methods of superiority of highly selective varicocele high ligation,transinguinal canal and laparoseopic of renovated polomo management of varicocele.Methods 561 patients in our hospital who charged by infertility had the operation were analyzed retrospectively and were recruited with primary varicocele above grade II for this study.These patients were divided into three group according to three kinds of operation methods of varicocele :group A was treated with highly selective varicocele high ligation and had 300 patients;group B was treated with transinguinal canal operation and had 181 patients; and group C was treated by laparescopic of renovated polomo operation with 80 patients.Through the comparing of the fertility ability of the three operation methods,to evaluate the therapeutic effect of the three methods.Results The increasing rates of the quality of semen in group B was higher than other groups if patients' ages were lower than 30.The increasing rates of the quality of semen in every group was also higher if patients' ages were lower than 30.No difference was found between three groups in natural conception rate (P＞0.05).Conclusion The methods of highly selective varieecele high ligation would be a better choice in the management of patients with primary varicecele because of higher quality of semen.

OBJECTIVE: Differentiating unicystic ameloblastomas from keratocystic odontogenic tumors (KCOT) is necessary for the planning of different treatment strategies; however, it is difficult based on conventional CT and MR sequences alone. The purpose of this study was to investigate the utility of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) in the differentiation of the two tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We prospectively studied 40 patients with odontogenic cysts and tumors of the maxillomandibular region using conventional MR imaging and DWI. ADCs were measured using 2 b factors (500 and 1000). RESULTS: Unicystic ameloblastomas (n = 11) showed free diffusion on DWI and a mean ADC value of 2.309 ± 0.17 × 10-3 mm2/s. KCOT (n = 15) showed restricted diffusion on DWI with a mean ADC value of 0.923 ± 0.20 × 10-3 mm2/s. The ADC values of unicystic ameloblastomas were significantly higher than those of KCOT (p < 0.001, Mann-Whitney U-test). An ADC cut-off value of 2.0 × 10-3 mm2/s to differentiate KCOT and unicystic ameloblastomas resulted in a 100% sensitivity and 100% specificity. Dentigerous cysts (n = 3) showed restricted diffusion on DWI and similar ADC values (1.257 ± 0.05 × 10-3 mm2/s) to those of KCOT. CONCLUSION: Diffusion-weighted imaging and ADC determination can be used as an adjuvant tool to differentiate between unicystic ameloblastomas and KCOT, although the ADC values of dentigerous cysts overlap with those of KCOT.

Objective To study the blood flow in aneurysm and its influence on mechanical properties of vascular walls for two kinds of common aneurysms, so as to improve the diagnosis and treatment of aneurysms and the prognosis of patients. Methods The interaction between the aneurysm-carrying vessels and blood of two common aneurysms was studied by fluid-structure interaction method. The blood flow velocity, wall deformation, stress distribution and damage form of aneurysm-carrying vessels were analyzed. Results The blood flow in both aneurysms were slow and stable, which resulted in better deposition and adhesion conditions. The junction between the aneurysm and the downstream of the blood vessel was a dangerous place for damage. The spindle aneurysm would undergo shear failure on outer wall of the aneurysm, while the cystic aneurysm would undergo stretching failure on inner wall. Under the effect of the same blood flow, a larger stress appeared on the cystic aneurysm, which was more prone to damage, and the tensile failure would lead to a more serious consequences. Conclusions The junction at the aneurysm and blood vessel is prone to damage, and the cystic aneurysm is more dangerous and harmful.

Objective To investigate the relationship between CYP 2C19 gene polymorphisms and clopidogrel efficacy in coronary heart disease patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods From January 2016 to December 2017,62 patients with acute coronary syndromes and treated with PCI in Guizhou Aerospace Hospital were recruited, CYP2C19 genotype, ADP －induced platelet aggregation rate and myocardial enzymes and other indicators were detected before operation .The myocardial enzymes were measured 24 hours after PCI.According to different metabolic types,the patients were grouped,the above indicators were compared.Results The CYP2C19*1/*1 was 37.10%,CYP2C19*1/*2 was 35.48%,CYP2C19*1/*3 was 11.29%,CYP2C19*2/*2 was 12.90%,CYP2C19*2/*3 was 3.23% and CYP2C19*3/*3 was 0.00%.The LDH,AST,CK,CK－MB and α－HBDH in the PCI patients after operation were significantly higher than those before operation (t＝0.019,0.040, 0.044,0.022,0.014,all P＜0.05).But ADP induced platelet aggregation rate and myocardial enzymes and other indicators among fast metabolism group,intermediate metabolic group and slow metabolic group had no statistically significant differences (all P ＞0.05).Conclusion CYP2C19 mutation frequency in the Chinese population is relatively large,the sample size of this study is less ,the relationship between clopidogrel resistance and the specific genotype can not be obtained ,it need to increase the sample size and comprehensive multi －factor consideration .
