Objective:To examine the relationship between fasting blood glucose(FBG)levels and H. pylori infection, as well as their impact on eradication and recurrence rates.Methods:A total of 1 584 patients with type 2 diabetes, ranging in age from 44 to 91 years old(mean age of 66.6±7.6 years), were included in this study conducted at the Physical Examination Center of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University between March 2010 and December 2019.Of the total participants, 1 063(67.1%)were male and 521(32.9%)were female.Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the impact of age, gender, fasting blood glucose, and H. pylori infection on the patients.In the study, 263 patients in the euglycemic control group(HbA1c<7%), 271 patients in the poor glycemic control group(HbA1c≥7%), and 269 patients in the control group underwent H. pylori eradication using bismuth-containing quadruple therapy, and the eradication efficacy, adverse reactions, and recurrence rates were compared after 1 year.Results:In patients with type 2 diabetes, the infection rate of H. pylori was found to be 48.2%.Further regression analysis revealed that poor glycemic control increased the risk of H. pylori infection( OR=1.611, 95% CI: 1.269~2.045, P<0.01). However, the constituent ratio and infection rate of different hypoglycemic drug groups did not show any significant statistical difference.The eradication rate of H. pylori was 90.9%, and there was no significant difference in the eradication rate among different blood glucose groups and control groups.However, after 1 year, the recurrence rate was 3.8%, with a higher rate observed in the poor glycemic control group compared to the euglycemic control group and the control group( P<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in constipation as the main side effect of eradication therapy between the diabetic group and the control group[25.1%(134/253) vs.16.4%(44/269), P<0.01]. Conclusions:Diabetic patients with fasting hyperglycemia or poor glycemic control are at an increased risk of H. pylori infection.Additionally, these patients have a higher risk of recurrence after eradication.Therefore, it is important for clinicians to closely monitor and manage glycemic control in diabetic patients to reduce the risk of H. pylori infection and improve treatment outcomes.

Objective To discuss the use of the APP to continue nursing effect on the quality of life of children with cerebral palsy. Methods A total of 100 cases of cerebral palsy hospitalized in July to December of 2016 were selected as the observation group, and the continuation nursing based on"Xinjiang cerebral palsy mobile APP"was carried out. A total of 102 cases of cerebral palsy were used as the control group in the hospital in January to June of 2016, and the traditional continuation nursing was carried out, and the self-care ability and quality of life of the children were evaluated by Activity of Daily Living Scale (ADL), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory TM3.0-Rheumatology (PedsQLTM3.0) on admission hospital, discharge and 6 months after discharge. Results The time, time and group interaction of 2 groups of children with cerebral palsy in ADL score were statistically significant (F=231.819, 33.382, P<0.01). The ADL score of 6 months after discharge in the observation group was (66.100 ± 7.368) points, the control group was (59.230 ± 10.534) points, and there was statistically significant (t=3.802, P<0.01). The time, group and time group interaction of 2 groups of children with cerebral palsy in PedsQLTM3.0 score were statistically significant (F=23.398, 234.374, 149.209, P<0.01). There was a statistically significant difference in the observation group between admission hospital and discharge, 6 months after discharge and discharge (t=-3.384,-4.198, P<0.05 or 0.01). The difference was statistically significant in control group between discharge and admission hospital(t =-17.809, P <0.01), but there was no significant difference between 6 months after discharge and discharge (P> 0.05). Conclusions Based on the continuation of"Xinjiang cerebral palsy mobile APP", nursing can improve the ability to care for children with cerebral palsy life, help children improve quality of life. Worthy of further promotion.

Objective To observe the mRNA and protein expression of thyroglobulin (Tg) and thyroid peroxidase (TPO) in each trimester of pregnant and lactating Wistar rats.Methods Ninety-six SPFNAF Wistar rats (84 female and 12 male),weighting 220-260 g were involved.All female Wistar rats were randomly divided into 7 groups according to their body mass via the random number table method:control group,early pregnancy group (7 d),midpregnancy group (14 d),late pregnancy group (21 d),early lactation group (7 d),midlactation group (14 d) and late lactation group (21 d),12 rats in each group.The rats were fed with conventional feed and drank deionized water freely.Female rats of the last 6 groups were mated with male rats.Thyroids were collected on the 7 d,14 d and 21 d of their pregnancy and lactation,respectively.The mRNA expression levels of Tg and TPO were detected by quantitative real-time PCR,and the protein expression levels of Tg and TPO were detected by Western blotting.Results The expression levels of Tg mRNA in thyroid tissue in the control group,early,middle and late pregnancy and early,middle and late lactation (1.05 ± 0.01,3.20 ± 0.23,1.88 ± 0.12,2.69 ± 0.20,1.53 ± 0.19,2.37 ± 0.31,2.23 ± 0.12) were significantly different between groups (F =42.864,P ＜ 0.05),and those of pregnancy and lactation groups were higher than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The expression levels of Tg protein were 0.15 ± 0.01,0.38 ± 0.01,0.32 ± 0.02,0.37 ± 0.01,0.21 ± 0.01,0.35 ± 0.01,0.44 ± 0.01,respectively.The differences between groups were statistically significant (F =232.250,P ＜ 0.05).And those of pregnancy and lactation groups were higher than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The expression levels of TPO mRNA in thyroid tissue in the control group,early,middle and late pregnancy and early,middle and late lactation (0.57 ± 0.01,0.74 ± 0.03,0.78 ± 0.13,1.08 ± 0.10,0.98 ± 0.10,1.00 ± 0.07,0.76 ± 0.05) were significantly different between groups (F =15.448,P ＜ 0.05).And those of pregnancy and lactation groups were higher than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The expression of TPO protein were 0.23 ± 0.01,0.41 ± 0.01,0.72 ± 0.02,0.78 ± 0.01,0.49 ± 0.01,0.52 ± 0.01,0.45 ± 0.02,respectively.The differences between groups were statistically significant (F =563.692,P ＜ 0.05).And those of pregnancy and lactation groups were higher than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The mRNA and protein expression levels of TPO and Tg have increased in pregnant and lactating rats.This performance may be raleted to thyroid hormone deficiency and mild hypothyroidism.

Conclusion:Practitioners on the Early Diagnosis and Treatment Program for Upper Gastrointestinal Cancers in rural China have mastered the basic screening scheme and skills for endoscopic cleaning and disinfection. The education background, duration of the career, area and understanding of screening scheme are influencing factors for the excellence rate of endoscopic cleaning and disinfection.

Biliary atresia is a rare infant disease that predisposes patients to liver transplantation and death if not treated in time. However, early diagnosis is challenging because the clinical manifestations and laboratory tests of biliary atresia overlap with other cholestatic diseases. Therefore, it is very important to develop a simple, safe and reliable method for the early diagnosis of biliary atresia. Herein, a novel NIR-II fluorescence probe, HZL2, with high quantum yield, excellent biocompatibility, low cytotoxicity and rapid excretion through the liver and gallbladder was developed based on the oil/water partition coefficient and permeability. A simple fecal sample after injection of HZL2 can be used to efficiently identify the success of the mouse model of biliary atresia for the first time, allowing for an early diagnosis of the disease. This study not only developed a simple and safe method for the early diagnosis of biliary atresia with great potential in clinical translation but also provides a research tool for the development of pathogenesis and therapeutic medicines for biliary atresia.

Background: Disrupted circadian rhythms have been associated with the development of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). In some IBS patients, the symptoms may present with circadian fluctuations. Enterochromaffin cells (EC cells) and tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1) - 5 - hydroxytryptamine (5 - HT) signaling pathway are currently recognized as the key pathophysiological mechanism of IBS. Aims: To explore whether Bmal1, the core circadian clock gene, is involved in the occurrence of IBS by regulating TPH1-5-HT signaling pathway in EC cells. Methods: Normal Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and IBS-model SD rats, as well as wild type (WT) and intestine-specific Bmal1 knockout (Bmal1
