1.Insulin resistance and polycystic ovary syndrome
Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 2013;(3):185-188
Insulin resistance likely plays a central pathogenic role in polycystic ovary syndrome and may explain the pleiotropie presentation and involvement of multiple organ systems.Hyperinsulinaemia leads to increased production of androgens resulting in anovulatory infertility.Women,especially those obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome,have an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease in their later life.Treatment of insulin resistance through lifestyle therapy or with a diabetes drug has become mainstream therapy to reduce the risk of diabetes,endometrial abnormalities,and cardiovascular disease events in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2009;25(14):1-4
Objective To investigate the influence of negative emotion on patients with peptic ulcer and their cognition about self-management knowledge. Methods Zung self-rating depression scale (SDS), self-rating anxiety scale(S/IS) and self-designed survey questionnaire of peptic deer patients' gen-end knowledge were used to examine 105 peptic ulcer patients in outpatient and inpatient in the digestive department and the data were compared with those of 106 healthy people. Results The peptic ulcer pa-tients' total score of SDS and SAS, and the occurrence rate of positive symptom were obviously higher than those of healthy people. In the group of ulcer patients, we compared the data of SDS one by one, the emo-tion of patients was different when their profession was different. The difference between patients with and without anxiety in keeping emotion steady and appropriate diet was significant. 45.8%~78.1% of patients with negative emotions didn't understand the cycle of treatment, regular consultation with a doctor or com-plication. Conclusions Nurses should evaluate the emotional state of patients, establish nursing plan based on individual patients, give different nursing and education to different patient. Thus patients' general self-management knowledge and compliance can be improved, their spirit health level can be alleviated. It can also reduce incidence of the disease and prevent relapse.

AIM: To investigate the effect of norepinephrine (NE) on brain tissue VEGF protein expression in 24 h after severe burns. METHODS: (1) 40% total body surface area (TBSA) Ⅲ? burn model was made in Wistar males rats. Brain water (%) was examined at 24 h after burn. (2) NE levels in the rat brain tissue were determined by high performence liquid chromatography. (3) VEGF protein levels in the rat brain tissue were determined by Western blotting at 24 h of postburn. RESULTS: (1) Brain edema exhibited at the burns and burn with norepinephrine groups. (2) A increase in NE levels in the rat brain tissue was observed at the burns. NE levels increased significantly in burn with norepinephrine groups. (3) VEGF protein expression in the rat brain tissue was gradually increased with increasing in norepinephrine stimulating dose. VEGF protein expression in the burn rats brain tissue was significantly increased in burn with high dose of norepinephrine stimulation. CONCLUSION: Norepinephrine induced VEGF protein expression in rat brain tissue at 24 h after severe burn, suggesting that increases in norepinephrine level postburn induce brain edema.
