Micronutrients are closely associated with the progression of diabetes and its complications. Diabetic patients are susceptible to micronutrient deficiency. In this article, we summarize the preventive and therapeutic effects of micronutrients including zinc, selenium, magnesium, and chromium on diabetes mellitus.

Objective To study the changes and clinical significance of P selectin (CD 62P), lysosome protein (CD 63) expression in patients with ischemic stroke.Methods 168 cases of acute ischemic stroke (both acute and convalescence) and 40 normal controls were tested for CD 62P and CD 63 expression using flow cytometry. The correlation between the expression and neurological functional deficit scale was analyzed.Results (1) The expression of CD 62p and CD 63 in acute phase (9.48%, 8.36%) of ischemic stroke was markedly higher than that in convalescence phase (5.73%, 4.21%)( P0.05). (3) CD 62P and CD 63 expressions were positively related with the scores of neurological functional deficit scale( r=0.84 and r=0.817, P

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of 153　Sm-EDTMP for multiple bone metastasis.Methods 32 patients with multiple bone metastases were treated with 153　Sm-EDTMP injected into the veins,0.4～1.0 mci/kg,of which 7 cases received therapy for 2～3 times.Results 53.1%(17/32)was relieved completely,25.0%(8/32)was relieved partially and 9.4%(3/32)was relieved slightly.No effects were found in 12.5%(4/32).The overall effective rate was 78.1%.Side effects that were the decreasing of WBC and PLT were found in 15.6%(5/32),which rose to the preoperative levels within 6～8 weeks.Conclusion Internal radiotherapy with 153　Sm-EDTMP is safe and effective in the treatment of multiple bone metastases.

0.05).(4) There was significant correlation between CD62p and CD63 ( P 0.05). Conclusions Patients with cerebral infarction show evidence of enhanced platelet activation and increasment of MPV and MAR,which may relate to the pathological process of cerebral infarction. Moreover MPV and MAR can reflect the clinical severity of cerebral infarction better than PLT. Anti-platelet aggregation treatment should be further taken in patients with cerebral infarction.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of 153 Sm EDTMP for multiple bone metastasis.Methods 32 patients with multiple bone metastases were treated with 153 Sm EDTMP injected into the veins,0.4～1.0 mci/kg,of which 7 cases received therapy for 2～3 times.Results 53.1%(17/32)was relieved completely,25.0%(8/32)was relieved partially and 9.4%(3/32)was relieved slightly.No effects were found in 12.5%(4/32).The overall effective rate was 78.1%.Side effects that were the decreasing of WBC and PLT were found in 15.6%(5/32),which rose to the preoperative levels within 6～8 weeks.Conclusion Internal radiotherapy with 153 Sm EDTMP is safe and effective in the treatment of multiple bone metastases.

Objective To investigate the changes and its clinical significance of serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) level and plasma tissue plasminogen activator( t-PA ) level in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI). Methods 99 aMCI patients (aMCI group) and 99 matched normal controls (NC group) were recruited for the present study. Multi-dimension neuropsychologic tests were used to extensively assess cognitive function of subjects. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was applied to measure serum BDNF level and plasma t-PA level. The correlation analysis between serum BDNF level and plasma t-PA level tested by ELISA and cognitive function were also made. Results (1) The results neuropsychologic tests in aMCI guoup were significantly lower than those in NC group (all P

Objective To explore the new way of the differential diagnosis of malignancy-related and non-malignant ascites.Methods 152 patients included 66 cases of liver cirrhosis, 21 cases of tuberculousperitonitis, 38 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma and 27 cases of other malignant tumors with ascites were studied. The levels of tumor markers (AFP, CEA, CA19-9 and CA125) in sera and ascites were measured.Results The diagnostic sensitivity of AFP, CEA, CA19-9 and CA125 in the malignancy-related ascites were 75 0%, 73 8%, 63 6% and 66 7%, respectively. And the specificity were 86 4%, 77 6%, 88 4% and 74 1%, respectively. The level of serum AFP, CEA, CA19-9 and CA125 were remarkably higher in malignancy-related ascites than that in non-malignant ascites(P

Objective To investigate bone strength in adults,and explore its influencing factors. Methods One hundred and ninety-one adults undergoing health examinations were selected.The questionnaires about milk intake and exercise conditions were performed,the body weight,fat mass,body mass index(BMI)and calcaneal bone strength were measured,and the relationship between each parameter and bone strength was analysed. Results Bone suength decreased with age increase,and was higher in males than that in females.Bone strength of overweight to obese adults was higher than that with normal body weight(P<0.05).Bone strength of adults with high milk intake was higher than that of those with low milk intake(P<0.05).Multivariate analysis revealed that age was negatively related to bone strength,females were more susceptible to bone strength decrease,and BMI and milk intake were positively related to bone strength. Conclusion Gender,age,BMI and milk intake are main influencing factors for bone strength.Bone strength decreases with age increase,and increase of BMI and milk intake will benefit bone strength,especially for females.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the reasons,occurrence mechanisms,as well as prevention methods for complications following cerebrovascular stent implantation.METHODS:A computer-based online search was performed by the first author.The databases of Medline and CNKI were searched with year's limitation of 1989-2009.According to the inclusive and exclusive criteria,the documents were screened,collected and evaluated from the following aspects:treating progress of cerebrovascular stent implantation;category and biocompatibility of cerebrovascular stent;as well as occurrence and prevention methods for complication following cerebrovascular stent implantation.RESULTS:A series of complications,such as carotid sinus response,hyper-perfusion syndrome,cerebral anglo spasm,bleeding at puncture locus,thrombosis,restenosis,as well as cerebral ischemia,would occur following cerebrovascular stent implantation.The complications were difficult to eliminate,but should be avoided by selecting correct implanting cases,elevating operator's proficiency,enhancing understanding of complications,obeying perioperative management,as well as correctly and in-time treatment.Polymer stent,coating stent,and drug eluting stent presented superior biocompatibility to metal stent,which could prevent restenosis following implantation.CONCLUSION:Cerebrovascular stent implantation is one of the main treatments for cerebrovascular disease.Polymer stent,coating stent,and drug eluting stent exhibit excellent biocompatibility.The complications associate to stent implantation are preventable and remediable via sufficient preoperatively preparation,exactly operation and perioperative management.
