Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of repaglinide and gliclazide in the treatment of elderly type 2 di-abetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods:A total of 225 T2DM patients with the age over 60 were enrolled and randomly divided into repa-glinide group (n=112) and gliclazide group (n=113). The repaglinide group was given repaglinide 0. 5~2 mg, po, tid, while the gliclazide group was given gliclazide modified release tablets 30~120 mg, po, qd,both with the treatment course of 12 weeks. The level of FPG, 2h PG, HbAlC, TC and TG and the side effects were observed and the clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups. Results:The level of FPG, 2h PG, HbAlc and TC in the two groups showed significant decrease after the treatment (P<0. 01 or P<0. 05), and the level of 2h PG was decreased more significantly in the repaglinide group (P<0. 05). There were no significant differ-ences in the total effective rate (91. 8% vs 86. 2%), hypoglycemia incidence (4. 5% vs 8. 2%) and ADR incidence (6. 4% vs 10. 1%) in the two groups (P>0. 05). Conclusion:Both repaglinide and gliclazide show safe and reliable efficacy in the treatment of elderly T2DM.

Objeetlve To evaluate the role of IL-1β and TNF-α in the spinal cord in a murine model of bone cancer pain(BCP)induced by activation of glial cells.Methods Three hundred and sixty male 8-10 weeks old C3H/He mice weighing 18-22 g were randomly divided into 6 groups(n=60 each):group I nomal control (group N);group Ⅱ sham operation (group S);group Ⅲ BCP+aCSF(group aCSF);group Ⅳ BCP+FC (group FC);group V BCP+MI(group MI) and group Ⅵ BCP+FC+MI (group FC-MI).BCP was produced by inieeting fibrosarcoma cells of bone into the medullary cavity of left ealcaneus bone.Intrathecal catheter was placed in the 4 BCP groups(group Ⅲ-Ⅳ).FC 0.5 nmol/5 μl or/and MI 16 μg/5 μl were injected IT once a day for 21 consecutive days after operation.The mechanical threshold to von Frey filaments was measured at 0.5 h(T0)before injection of fibrosarcoma cells and at 3,5,7,10,14,21 d(T1-6)after injection of fibrosarcoma cells.Twelve animals of each group were killed and L4.5 segment of the spinal cord was removed at T0,1,3,5,6 for determination of IL-1β and TNF-α content (by ELISA) and expression (by immuno-flurorescence) in the spinal cord. Results The mechanical threshold was significantly decreased at T1-6, while IL-1β content at T1,3,5,6 and TNF-α content at T5,6 was significantly increased in group BCP, FC, MI and FC + MI compared with those at T0 and group C (P < 0.05). Compared with group BCP, the mechanical threshold was significantly increased at T1-6 in group MI and FC + MI and at T4-6 in group FC, IL-1β content was significantly decreased at Ts,3,5,6 in group MI and FC + MI and at T5,6 in group FC and TNF-α content was significantly decreased at T5,6 in group FC, MI and FC + MI ( P < 0.05). Conclusion IL-1β and TNF-α in the spinal cord is involved in the process of glial cell activation-induced BCP.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical application value of Provider-Initiated HIV Testing and Counseling (PITC) by analyzing the positive rate of HIV tests for people in need of PITC and that of routine HIV tests.
METHODSWe retrospectively analyzed the demographic and epidemiologic data about the patients seeking PITC services or undergoing routine HIV tests in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital between January and December 2013.
RESULTSThe positive rate of initial HIV screening was 1.98% in the PITC group and 0.24% in the routine test group, while that of confirmed HIV was 0. 40% in the former and 0.07% in the latter, both with statistically significant differences between the two groups (P < 0.01). The positive rate of HIV was markedly higher in males than in females, particularly in the PITC group.
CONCLUSIONPITC has a high clinical value in HIV detection for targeted subjects and therefore deserves general application in dermatology.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of local administration of recombinant adenovirus of human adiponectin (hAPN) Ad-hAPN-EGFP on tibial defect repair of SD rats.
METHODSTibial defect (2 mm) models of 36 SD rats (72 sides) were randomly divided into three groups (A, B, and C; n=24). The three groups were injected with Ad-hAPN-EGFP, Ad-EGFP, and normal saline, respectively, during operation and the day after operation. A week after the operation, the expression of hAPN and osteogenesis-related factors were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Three weeks after operation, the tibias were examined by micro-computed tomography, hematoxylin-eosin staining, and Masson staining to evaluate the restoration of bone defects.
RESULTS1) The hAPN expression was detected in group A but not in groups B and C. Osteogenesis-related factors expression of group A was significantly higher than that of the other groups (P<0.05). 2) Osteogenesis (including bone mineral density, relative bone volume, trabecular number and trabecular thickness) in group A were more evident than those in groups B and C (P<0.05). No significant differences were found between groups B and C (P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONLocal administration of recombinant adenovirus Ad-hAPN-EGFP may be an effective strategy to improve the restoration of bone defects in vivo.

Objective To screen altered proteins of hippocampus in the stress-induced depression (STRID) rat model, and explore the potential molecular mechanism. Methods Twenty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the control group and STRID group, 10 rats in each group. Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) methods including fasting for solids and liquids, electric foot-shock, reversing day and night, cold water swimming, cage tilt, scare stimulation and tail pinch were conducted on STRID rats with no repeats for 28 days to make up the depression animal model. The control group was normally fed during this period. After the stress stimulation, the hippocampus protein samples were used for two dimensional electrophoresis to screen the differentially expressed protein, and then mass spectrum identification and function analyze were conducted. Results Compared with the control group, 34 proteins were altered in STRID group. Among which, 18 were up-regulated, and 16 were down-regulated. The differentially expressed proteins mainly located in cytoplasm, mitochondrion, extracellular exosome and myelin sheath. The involved signaling pathways included metabolic pathway, oxidative phosphorylation pathway, and Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease pathways. Conclusion The altered proteins and dysfunction of nerve signaling, and the excess of oxidative phosphorylation in hippocampus of STRID rats may be one of the pathogenesises.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical effects of circumcision and the foreskin-deglove plus shaft-fix (FDSF) procedure in the treatment of phimosis or redundant prepuce in obese adult males (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 28 kg/m²).
METHODSForty-four obese adult men with phimosis or redundant prepuce underwent circumcision (n = 24) or FDSF (n = 20) according to their own wishes. The patients in the circumcision and FDSF groups were aged (26.38 ± 4.24) and (26.90 ± 3.14) years, with BMIs of (27.77 ± 0.77) and (28.07 ± 2.28) kg/m² and penis lengths of (3.51 ± 0.46) and (3.50 ± 0.59) cm, respectively. The operations were performed under local anesthesia with lidocaine plus ropivacaine mesylate.
RESULTSThe operation time of circumcision was (28.04 ± 2.65) min and that of FDSF was (45.45 ± 3.49) min. At 6 months after surgery, normal penile erection was found in all the patients, the penis length was significantly longer in the FDSF than in the circumcision group ([5.01 ± 0.73] vs [3.70 ± 0.47] cm) , and the rate of satisfaction with penile appearance was markedly higher in the former than in the latter group (3.25 ± 0.71 vs 2.83 ± 0.56).
CONCLUSIONThe foreskin-deglove plus shaft-fix procedure under local anesthesia with lidocaine and ropivacaine mesylate may achieve desirable penile erection and appearance in the treatment of phimosis or redundant prepuce in obese adult patients.
