Objective To investigate the characteristic of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients with coronary heart disease (CHD),and provide methods for prevention and treatment for patients who suffered from CHD.Methods The hospitalized patients were divided into three groups.The treatment group contains 46 cases who were T2D with CHD;The control group Ⅰ contains 30 cases who were T2DM without CHD;The control group Ⅱ contains 50 cases who were CHD without T2DM.Their ordinary circumstances were compared;the blood sugar,BP,TC,TG,HDL,LDL,HbA1c,C-P,Ins were measured.Insulin sensitive index(ISI) was calculated.Results Three groups had obvious statistical differences in BP,TC,LDL-C,ISI,HbA1 c.Diabetic patients with CHD have more common with three lesions.Conclusion In the clinical job,the composite observation should be strengthened and treatment because the factors of atherosclerosis in T2DM patients were numerous and complex.

Objective To investigate the effect of recent blood glucose control level of diabetes on prognosis in the patients with general surgery. Methods To analyze the clinical data of 126 diabetic patients with general surgery and the relatiouship among the average hospitalized length,medical cost and the complications of sugery due to glycosylated hemoglobin. Results Comparing with controls, diabetic patients HbA1c＞7.5% had more days longer than those HbA1c＜6.5 % at the time of average in-hospital duration, stitch removing, food-taking and using antibiotics after the operation,Diabetics HbA1c＜6.5 % with cholecystolithiasis, thyroid adenoma had lower surgery cost than those HbA1c＞7.5 %. Conclusion To intensify the control of blood glucose of the patients of limited or selective general surgery as to lower glycosylated hemoglobin＜6.5 % is very important for improving prognosis, and decreasing the complications and medical cost of the operation.

Objective To investigate and analyze the effect and insulin dosage of insulin pump in type 2 diabetes. Methods 63 hospital patients with type 2 diabetes(FPG≥12mmol/L), who had poorly controlled blood glucose, were treated by insulin pump for 14 days, without hypoglycemic agents. The treatment days when blood glucose was well controlled and the insulin dosage at that time were observed. FPG, CBG, HbA1c, FINS/FPG, ISI, Homa-B and Homa-IR were measured before and after insulin pump. Results When blood glucose were well controlled, the mean time was (5.4+1.6) days, the insulin was (0.6+0.2)U/kg, the basal insulin was 38%. The dosage of insulin was decreased after blood glucose were controlled. Reaction of hypoglycemia was (0.6+0.2). After 2 weeks insulin pump intensive treatment, the result of FPG, CBG, HOMA-IR and HbA1c were significantly decreased (all P<0.01); FINS/FPG, HOMA-B and ISI were incleased (all P<0.01). Conclusion The excellent glycemic control and improvement of beta-cell function can be induced by short-term insulin pump intensive therapy in diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients with severe hypoglycemia.

Objective To explore the relationship between high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA and biological behavior of cervical carcinoma. Methods Sixty-six patients of cervical carcinoma with cytological examinations and 103 patients of cervical carcinoma followed-up after surgical operation were selected for high-risk HPV DNA test with second-generation hybrid capture technique (HC2 Ⅱ). Results ①HPV DNA was positive in 62 and negative in four of 66 patients of cervical carcinoma with an overall prevalence of 94%. ②There was no significant difference in positive HPV DNA of patients with cervical carcinoma between their varied clinical stages and pathologic grades. But, HPV positivity and HPV DNA load in patients with myometrial invasion were higher than those in patients without invasion (P < 0. 05).③ HPV DNA conversed to negative in 99 of 103 patients (96%) with cervical carcinoma after surgical operation from positivity before operation. Conclusions High-risk HPV infection may correlate with angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis of cervical carcinoma and HC2 Ⅱ can be used as an effective method to detect HPV DNA.

BACKGROUND: With the rapid development of tissue engineering, a single biological scaffold material is hard to meet the needs of tissue engineering. Therefore, composite scaffolds with excellent performance will be obtained by combining two or more kinds of materials.OBJECTIVE: To detect the adherence and proliferation of dental pulp stem cells on the Chitosan-fibrin composite scaffold.METHODS: Dental pulp stem cells were isolated and extracted from C57 neonatal rats through modified enzyme-digestion method, and subcultured to the third generation, followed by adipogenic and osteogenic induction in vitro. Then, induced cells were identified. The chitosan-fibrinogen composite scaffold was prepared, and the pore size and porosity were determined. The chitosan-fibrin composite scaffold was co-cultured with passage 3 dental pulp stem cells to observe the cell proliferation by MTT assay, and the morphology of the composite scaffold, cell adhesion,proliferation and extracellular matrix secretion were observed under scanning electron microscope. In addition, the cells were inoculated directly on the bottom of culture plate as controls.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The dental pulp stem cells were successfully isolated and cultivated, and positive for osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation. The pore size and porosity of the composite scaffold was (105.32±22.10) μm and (87.714±1.276)%, respectively. The S-shaped proliferation curve in the experimental group was similar with that in the control group; the proliferation rate in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group after 4-8 days of culture (P < 0.05). At the 2nd day after co-culture, the cells adhered tightly and grew well onto the composite scaffold; at the 4th day, enlarged cells began to proliferate obviously with abundant extracellular matrix; the surface and pores of the scaffold were full of cells at the 6th day. These results indicate that the chitosan-fibrin composite scaffold is suitable for the adhesion and proliferation of dental pulp stem cells.

Objective To observe the cardiac structure and function of obese children,so as to evaluate the risk of early pathological changes and severe consequences.Methods One thousand and thirty-four children (aged between 8 and 9,of 520 females) from 5 primary schools in Beijing were recruited and randomly divided into 2 normal groups (206 males and 336 females),2 overweight groups (94 males and 80 females) and 2 obesity groups (214 males and 104 females) according to the sex and body fat percentage (BF％.The cardiac structure and function were measured using echocardiography.Results (1) Compared with the normal groups,significant increase was observed in the left ventricular internal diameter at end-diastole (LVIDd),left ventricular posterior wall dimensions (LVPWd),left ventricular end-diastolic volume (EDV),left ventricular mass (LVM),left ventricular mass index (LVMI),stroke volume (SV) and cardiac output (CO) in the obesity groups (P＜0.01).However,no significant differences were observed between the 2 groups in the ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening (FS) (P＞0.05).(2) BF％ was positively correlated with the aortic root dimension,IVSd,LVIDd,LVPWd,EDV,LVM,LVMI,CO and SV (P＜0.01).(3) The prevalence of concentric hypertrophy was 6.1％ among the overweight and obese children aged between 8 and 9.Compared with the normal children,significant increase was found in their BF,BF％,body mass index,LVM,LVMI and RWT,but significant decrease in SV (P＜0.05).Conclusions Screening with BF％,the overweight and obese children between 8 and 9 years old have showed obvious changes in their cardiac structure and function,including higher left ventricular internal diameter at end-diastole,thicker left ventricular wall as well as bigger left ventricular end-diastolic volume,left ventricular mass,left ventricular mass index,stroke volume and cardiac output.Meanwhile,the prevalence of concentric hypertrophy increased with the increase of body fat percentage.

Rectal cancer is one of the common cancers which poses a threat to the health of mankind. In recent years. Multi-modality treatment strategies for locally advanced rectal cancer improve the treatment efficiency. Accurate prediction of the treatment response after the neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) can guide more suitable treatment strategy. MERCURY study proved the prognostic value of post-CRT standard morphologic MRI(T2-weighted) assessment of tumor regression grade(TRG), and MRI assessment of circumferential resection margin can guide the definitive surgery. Compared with standard morphologic MRI (T2-weighted), functional MRI, including diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MRI, has shown more promising results for the prediction of therapeutic response in rectal cancer. The addition of diffusion-weighted images to T2-weighted images improves the accuracy of restaging examinations for determination of complete pathologic responders. DCE can reflect the tumor micro-vascular environment, and the change of perfusion in response to treatment. These images have the potential to improve the accuracy of therapeutic response in rectal cancer.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of palonosetron in preventing chemotherapy-induced vomiting. Meth-ods:A multi-center, randomized, double-blind, and self-cross-over positively controlled clinical trial design was used. All patients were randomized into two groups, as follows:Regiment A (61 cases) and Regiment B (64 cases). Regimen A with palonosetron hydrochlo-ride injection (test agent) was used in the treatment cycle A, whereas granisetron hydrochloride injection (control drug) was used in the cycle B. Treatments were randomly administered on the patients of the two groups. Regimen B was on the contrary, the control drug was used in the cycle A, and the test agent was used in the treatment cycle B. All patients treated with the test agent were classified as the test group, whereas those treated with the control drug were classified as the control group. Complete control rate and adverse reac-tion of acute and delayed vomiting in the two groups during the two cycles of chemotherapy regimen were compared. Results: In Group One, the complete control rate of delayed vomiting was significantly higher in the palonosetron administration cycles than in the granisetron cycles (76.92%vs. 55.38%, P=0.0110). In the same group, the frequency of vomiting was significantly less in palonosetron cycles than in the granisetron cycles during day 1 to day 5 (1.32±3.42 vs. 1.94±3.03, P=0.0096). The incidences of adverse effects were low in both groups. No grades 3 and 4 adverse effects were observed. Conclusion: Palonosetron showed efficacy in preventing the acute and delayed chemotherapy-induced vomiting. The drug is superior to granisetron, specifically in delaying vomiting in Group One. Palonosetron hydrochloride showed slight adverse effects. Hence, this drug can be used in clinic.

Objective: To evaluate 99mtechnetium-three polyethylene glycol spacers-arginine-glycine-aspartic acid ( 99mTc-3PRGD2) singlephoton emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT) imaging for diagnosing lymph node metastasis of primary malignant lung neoplasms. Materials and Methods: We prospectively enrolled 26 patients with primary malignant lung tumors who underwent 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose ( 18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT imaging. Both imaging methods were analyzed in qualitative (visual dichotomous and 5-point grades for lymph nodes and lung tumors, respectively) and semiquantitative (maximum tissue-to-background radioactive count) manners for the lymph nodes and lung tumors. The performance of the differentiation of lymph nodes with and without metastasis was determined at the per-lymph node station and perpatient levels using histopathological results as the reference standard. Results: Total 42 stations had metastatic lymph nodes and 136 stations had benign lymph nodes. The differences between metastatic and benign lymph nodes in the visual qualitative and semiquantitative analyses of 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT and18F-FDG PET/CT were statistically significant (all P < 0.001). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC)in the semi-quantitative analysis of 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT was 0.908 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.851–0.966), and the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were 0.86 (36/42), 0.88 (120/136), 0.69 (36/52), and 0.95 (120/126), respectively. Among the 26 patients (including two patients each with two lung tumors), 15 had pathologically confirmed lymph node metastasis. The difference between primary lung lesions in patients with and without lymph node metastasis was statistically significant only in the semi-quantitative analysis of 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT (P = 0.007), with an AUC of 0.807 (95% CI, 0.641–0.974). Conclusion 99mTc-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT imaging may notably perform in the direct diagnosis of lymph node metastasis of primary malignant lung tumors and indirectly predict the presence of lymph node metastasis through uptake in the primary lesions.
