Objective To investigate the correlation of circular RNA-ZNF532(cZNF532)expression level with pancreatic islet cell function and microvascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 198 T2DM patients admitted to the Department of Endocrinology,Nanyang Central Hospital from June 2018 to June 2022 were selected as the research subjects(observation group),and 50 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examination in the hospital during the same period were selected as the control group.The expression level of cZNF532 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction,the fasting blood glucose(FPG),insulin(FINS),glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR)and homeostasis model assessment of β-cell function(HOMA-β)of the subjects were detected by the fully automated biochemical analyzer,and the correlation between cZNF532 expression level and pancreatic islet cell function in T2DM patients was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.The clinical data of T2DM patients were collected,and they were divided into microvascular complication group(n=120)and non-microvascular complication group(n=78)according to whether microvascular complications occurred during treatment.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for microvascular complications in patients with T2DM,and Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between the expression level of cZNF532 and microvascular complications in patients with T2DM.Results Compared with the control group,the levels of cZNF532,FINS,HbA1c and HOMA-IR were significantly higher and HOMA-β was significantly lower in the observation group(P<0.05).The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that the expression level of cZNF532 in T2DM patients was positively correlated with the FINS,HbA1c and HOMA-IR(r=0.324,0.357,0.410;P<0.05);and negatively correlated with HOMA-β(r=-0.389,P<0.05).There was no significant difference in gender,age,course of disease,number of patients with hypertension,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),total cholesterol(TC)and triglyceride(TG)levels between the microvascular complication group and the non-microvascular complication group(P>0.05);compared with the non-microvascular complication group,the expression levels of LDL-C,FPG and cZNF532 in the microvascular complication group were significantly higher(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that LDL-C,FPG and cZNF532 were independent risk factors for microvascular complications in T2DM patients.The results of Spearman correlation analysis showed that the expression level of cZNF532 was positively correlated with the occurrence of microvascular complications in T2DM patients(r=0.681,P<0.05).Conclusion cZNF532 is overexpressed in T2DM patients,which is associated with pancreatic islet cell function and microvascular complications in T2DM patients.

Objective To investigate the preliminary clinical efficacy of percutaneous plate internal fixation with fracture reduction oriented forcep in the treatment of lower humeral fractures. Methods A retrospective case control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 46 patients with lower humeral fractures admitted to Wuzhong People's Hospital of Suzhou from October 2013 to March 2015. There were 25 males and 21 females, aged 19-76 years, with an average age of 45. 7 years. A total of 22 patients ( percutaneous group) were treated with minimally invasive percutaneous internal fixation with self-developed fracture reduction oriented forcep according to the dimensionality reduction method (DRM). The other 24 patients (control group) were treated with open reduction internal fixation. The length of incision, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, fracture healing time, the American Foot and Ankle Surgery Association ( AOFAS ) ankle-hindfoot score at the last follow-up, and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results All patients were followed up for 12-24 months, with an average of 14. 6 months. There were statistically significant differences between percutaneous group and control group in incision length [(7.1 ±0.8)cm vs. (8.8 ±0.7)cm, operation time [(32.5 ±4.9)min vs. (39.2 ±4.3)min], intraoperative blood loss [(8.0 ±2.7) ml vs. (31.0 ± 11.4)ml], and fracture healing time (16.4 ±2.3)weeks vs. (19.5 ±2.9)weeks], respectively (all P<0.05). In percutaneous group, the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was (92.3 ±5.9)points (range, 75-99 points ) , and the overall results were good and excellent in 21/22 ( 96%) including excellent results in 18 patients, good in three, fair in one and poor in 0. In control group, the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was (91.8 ±4.9)points (range, 76-99 points), and the overall results were good and excellent in 23/24 (96%) including excellent results in 20 patients, good in three, fair in one and poor in 0. There was no significant difference in the excellent and good rate between two groups (P>0. 05). Poor wound healing was observed in one patient in control group. No case of nonunion was found in either group. Conclusion For lower humeral fractures, the percutaneous plate internal fixation with fracture reduction oriented forcep has the characteristics of simple operation, shortened operation time, reduced soft tissue injury and blood loss, and quick healing of the fracture, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To assess the association between short-term ambient air pollution exposure and arterial stiffness and whether obesity modifies these associations.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted based on Fangshan family cohort in Beijing. The 24 hours average air pollutant levels on the day cohort participants took baseline survey were calculated as short-term air pollution. A generalized additive model (GAM) with Gaussian links was used to estimate changes in typical carotid artery intima-media thickness (CIMT), brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (BAPWV), pulse pressure (PP) and ankle-branchial index (ABI) after short-term exposure to each air pollution (PM 2.5, PM 10, SO 2, NO 2, CO). The cross-product terms of each air pollution, body mass index (BMI), and waist-to-hip ratio were included in the GAM model to test the interaction. Further, they conducted a stratified analysis to test their effects on the relationship between short-term exposure to each air pollution and the arterial stiffness indicators. Results:A total of 4 211 individuals were included in the analysis. Individuals' age was (58.9±8.7) years, of which 2 268 (53.9%) were female. Several covariates, including sociodemographic factors, lifestyle behaviors, and history of drugs, were included in the analysis. The results of the GAM analysis showed that an increase in PM 2.5 ( β=2.912×10 -4, 95% CI: 1.424×10 -4-4.400×10 -4, P<0.001), CO ( β=0.027, 95% CI: 0.011-0.043, P<0.001), SO 2 ( β=2.070×10 -3, 95% CI: 7.060×10 -4-3.430×10 -3, P=0.003), and NO 2 ( β=3.650×10 -4, 95% CI: 2.340×10 -5-7.060×10 -4, P=0.036) were associated with an increase in CIMT, while an increase in PM 10 ( β=0.018, 95% CI: 0.002-0.033, P=0.028) was associated with an increase in PP in the study population. Besides, the waist-to-hip ratio had an effect-modification on the correlation of short-term exposure of PM 2.5 (interaction P=0.015), NO 2 (interaction P=0.008), and CO (interaction P=0.044) with CIMT, and the correlation between short-term exposure of PM 2.5 (interaction P=0.002), NO 2 (interaction P=0.010), CO (interaction P=0.029), PM 10 (interaction P<0.001) with PP. The significant association between CIMT, PP, and air pollution concentrations was more visible in people with lower waist-to-hip ratios. Conclusions:Short-term ambient air pollution exposure was associated with arterial stiffness indicators, and there was an effect modification of waist-to-hip ratio on these associations, and lower waist-to-hip ratios may enhance the association between air pollution exposure and indicators.
