Objective To investigate and analyze the relative factors in elderly men with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)complicated with osteoporosis(OP),thus to provide guidance for prevention of OP complicated with T2DM in elderly men.Methods Dual X -ray absorptiometry determination of bone mineral density (BMD)of 67 cases of elderly men with diabetes,men were divided into OP group (n =32),NOP group (n =35).Then,we compared differences in body mass index(BMI),diabetes duration,fasting plasma glucose (FPG),glycosylated hemo-globin(HbA1c),patients'age,fasting insulin(FINS),insulin sensitivity index(ISI),quantitative of urinary albumin (ALb),quantitative of urinary protein in 24 hours and alkaliphosphatase level(ALP),low density lipoprotein choles-terin(LDL -C),triglyceride(TG),and made correlation analysis.Results Compared with those in NOP group,pa-tients in OP group had older age,longer disease course,smaller baric index,lower BMD,higher ALP,lower FINS,low-er ISI,higher HbA1c,higher quantitative of urinary protein in 24 hours and urinary albumin,higher LDL -C,which were significantly different (P <0.05);BMD of elderly men with T2DM was negatively correlated to patients'age, disease course,HbA1c,quantitative of urinary protein in 24 hours,ALb,ALP and LDL -C,but positively correlated to BMI,FINS and ISI.Conclusion Many factors,such as elderly,low body weight,long duration of the disease,high level of blood sugar,insulin dysfunction,low insulin sensitivity,high level of blood suger,insulin dysfunction,low insulin sensitivity,high serum alkalinephosphatase,high LDL -C and diabetic nephropathy,contribute to osteoporosis in elderly men with T2DM.

Microbial selective side-chain degradation of phytosterol,which can obtain the steroid medicine intermediate compounds-androst-4-ene-3,17-dione (4-AD) and androsta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione (ADD),has an important meaning to pharmacy. There is no systematic literature concerned in existence. Its mechnism,approaches,influencing factors and so on over these years were fully reviewed in the paper. The trend of development in the area is expanded.

Objective To analyse the effective rate and adverse effect of only levetiracetam (LEV) versus LEV plus other drugs in the treatment of middle and old aged patients with partial seizures (PS) and secondary generalized tonic-clonic seizure (SGTCS).Methods The self-control study was used and 59 elderly patients with PS and SGTCS were treated with LEV single or plus drug (therapeutic dose was 1000-2000 mg/d,bid).The effective rate and the side effects of LEV were observed and compared between LEV single and plus drug or between the patients with only epilepsy versus epilepsy plus other diseases,respectively.Results The effective ratios at the end of 3,6,9and 12 months after LEV treatment were 76.2％,70.6％,64.3％ and 66.7％,respectively and there were no significant difference among above time points (x2=1.911,P＞0.05).A chi-square test showed that the differences in effective ratios were not statistically significant (P＞ 0.05) between single and combination of drugs (x2 =1.437) and between two groups of patients at the end of 12 months.Clinical effect of LEV showed no remarkable difference between different types of epilepsy at the end of 6 months (x2 =1.315,P＞0.05)and 12 months(x2 =2.700,P＞0.05).The control ratio of epileptic attack was higher in single LEV than in combination drugs (x2 =10.83,P＜0.05).The total side effects were 13.6％,including somnolence,weakness,anorexia,headache,irritability and forgetfulness.Conclusions The curative effects of levetiracetam single or in combination are definite,stable and continuous for PS and SGTCS,especially in combination with other diseases.

Objective To investigate the effect of telephone follow-up on peripherally inserted central cathter(PICC) maintenance.Methods Two hundred and eighty-nine patients with PICC in our hospital from January to December 2010 served as the control group,given conventional health education on intubation,another 305 patients with PICC from January to December 2011 were set as the observation group,where telephone call follow-up was done on the basis of conventional health education on intubation. The two groups were compared in terms of timely catheter maintenance,catheter-related complications,accidental extubation and satisfaction.Result The observation group was significantly better than the control group in terms of timely catheter maintenance, catheter-related complications,accidental extubation and satisfaction (allP<0.05).Conclusion Telephone follow-up helps to improve patients compliance with PICC catheter maintenance,effectively control the complications and improve the quality of life and satisfaction degree.

Objective To build a normal value of serum sex hormone in the healthy children in favour of the diagnosis of children precocious puberty and the evaluation of the growth of the children.Method Serum of 462 healthy children(aged from 1 month to 14 years;205 females,257 males)was collected,and the level of testosterone(T) and 17-estradiol(E2).Results There were no significant deviation in the levels of E2 of deferent genders between 1-12 months,but the level of T in boys and girls were obviously different.The puberty of boys was la-ter than girls.There was no significant deviation in the level of E2 of the boys in different periods,but the levels of T in boys at different ages were obviously different.Conclusions With the improvement the detection methods,the normal values of the serum sex hormone in healthy children have been changing.It is helpful for diagnosis of children precocious puberty by rebuilding normal values of T and E2 .

Objective To observe effect of Sanshen granule preparation combined with MVP regimen in treating middle-late stage non-small cell lung cancer patients. Methods 152 middle-late stage non-small cell lung cancer patients were randomly assigned to treatment group (79 patients) and control group (73 patients).
