With the continuous improvement of people's living standard, more and more people are in pre-diabetes state. Pre-diabetes is the key to the development of diabetes, and early intervention can reduce the incidence of diabetes, and prevent transforming pre-diabetes to diabetes in order to maintain the health status of the patient. By retrieving the Chinese Biomedical Literature Database of nearly five years on pre-diabetes intervention literature, it was found that traditional Chinese medicine interventions in pre-diabetes have a relatively new understanding. Through the traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, acupoint massage, and combine traditional Chinese and western medicine, medicinal food, eight brocade etc intervention therapy in patients with pre-diabetes, the occurrence and development of diabetes and its complications can be effectively prevented.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of the hyperamylasemia in critically ill children and investigate the related risk factors in order to provide the basis for prevention and treatment. Methods A total of 1036 critically ill children admitted in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU)from April,2011 to Oct,2012 were studied.They were divided into the high amylase group (n=82)and the normal group (n=954).According to the outcomes,the high amylase group was divided into survival group (n=61 ) and death group (n =21 ).The related risk factors of the occurrence and outcome of hyperamylasemia were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression.Results There were statistically significant differences in rates of coagulation disorders, convulsions, disturbance of consciousness,pediatric critical illness score (PCIS)≤80,multiple organ dysfunction (MODS)≥3, sepsis,shock,and lactic acid (LA),procalcitonin (PCT),blood glucose (BG)between the high amylase group and the normal group (P<0.05 ).The differences in the rates of coagulation disorders,convulsions, mechanical ventilation,PCIS≤80,MODS≥3,and LA,PCT,oxygenation index,albumin,C-peptide,BG were statistically significant between the survival group and the death group (P <0.05 ).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors of the hyperamylasemia's occurrence were LA,PCT, BG,PCIS<80,MODS>3.Adjusted ORs confidence intervals of them were 1.662 (1.236-2.234),1.042 (1.025-1.060),1.612 (1.411-1.843),3.219 (1.311-7.905),3.411 (1.370-8.494),respectively. The hyperamylasemia's prognostic risk factors were PCT,C-peptide,PCIS ≤80,MODS >3,shock. Adjusted ORs confidence intervals of them were 1.066(1.021-1.113),1.437(1.017 ~2.030),16.137 (1.876-138.836),10.437(1.528-71.925),20.928(1.938-226.009),respectively.Conclusions The severity of the disease,the levels of LA,PCT,BG in critically ill children were positively correlated to the occurrence of hyperamylasemia.The severity of the disease,the incidence of organ failures,the levels of PCT,C-peptide combined shock in children with hyperamylasemia were positively correlated to the prognosis of hyperamylasemia.

Objective To investigate the clinical performance of fiber post restorations in elderly patients with residual root and crown and to analyze the factors affecting the clinical success rate.Methods A total of 66 elderly patients requiring post restoration were selected.They were randomly divided into two groups:the observation group (n=33,restored with fiber post-resin cores) and the control group (n=33,restored with cast metal post-cores).All patients were rechecked 1 year and 2years after the restoration.The clinical efficacy and the failure types were recorded.The differences in clinical performance between the 2 groups were compared by using Fisher's exact test.Results The differences in the gingival index and periodontal index in the 2 groups between the experimental teeth and the control teeth were zero.There were no significant differences in dental morphology,root canal treatment failure,tooth color matching and marginal coloration between the 2 groups (all P＞0.05).1 case with post debonding and 1 case with fiber post fracture were found in the observation group and 1 case with marginal coloration was found in control group.There was no significant difference in clinical success rate between the 2 groups (93.94％ vs.96.97％,P＞0.05).Conclusions The clinical success rate in fiber post-resin core restoration is the same as in cast metal post-cores restoration in elderly patients.

Objective To investigate the serum procalcitonin (PCT) levels in sepsis caused by the bacteria,virus and mycoplasma and explore the role of PCT in etiology diagnosis of sepsis in children.Methods Three hundreds and thirty critically ill children with sepsis caused by bacteria,virus and mycoplasma admitted in PICU of Hunan Children' s Hospital from Feb 1,2011 to Sep 1,2012 were reviewed and analyzed.The PCT levels were measured at admission and day 3.The differences in accidence of sepsis caused by bacteria,viruses and mycoplasma according to different serum PCT levels were analyzed.The differences of PCT levels at admission and day 3 in sepsic children caused by bacteria,viruses and mycoplasma were analyzed.Results The level of serum PCT in sepsis caused by bacterial infection were distinctly increased,caused by virus and mycoplasma infections was not obvious but the increases of serum PCT [0.71 (8.14)ng/ml,0.15 (1.68) ng/ml,0.28 (1.89) ng/ml].According to various PCT levels(0.05 ～ ng/ml,0.5 ～ng/ml,2 ～ ng/ml,10 ～ 300 ng/ml),the differences of accidence of sepsis caused by bacteria,virus and mycoplasma were also statistically significant(x2 =84.50,P ＜ 0.01).The PCT level of septic children caused by bacterial infection in day 3 was significantly decreased compared with that at admission [0.32 (5.68) ng/ml vs 0.71 (8.14) ng/ml] (U =19.34,P ＜0.05).Conclusion PCT plays a certain role in etiology diagnosis of sepsis in children.The increased PCT levels which can be reduced by anti-inflammatory treatment indicate the likelihood of bacterial infection and sepsis.The increase of PCT induced by viral and mycoplasma infections is not obvious,but bacterial infection can not be completely ruled out.

Objective To study the impact of Xingnaojing (XNJ) injection (a preparation of Chinese herb medicine) on the permeability of blood-brain barrier and Caveolin-1 in cortex of brain after global ischemia-reperfusion.Methods Modified Pulsinelli method for four-vessel occlusion was employed to establish the global ischemia reperfusion model in rats.Male Wistar rats were randomly (random number) divided into three groups,namely sham group,model group and XNJ group.Each group was observed at 24 h,48 h and 72 h after ischemia reperfusion.The water content of brain tissue was determined by dry/wet weight ratio,while the Evans blue (EB) concentration in brain tissue was detected by spectrophotometer.Western blot was used to detect caveolin-1 level in the cerebral cortex.Results The water contents of brain tissue in model group and XNJ group were significantly higher than that in sham group 24 hour after ischemia-reperfusion (P ＜ 0.05).But at 48 h and 72 h after ischemia-reperfusion,the brain water content in model group was significantly higher than that in XNJ group and sham group (P ＜ 0.05).The EB concentrations in brain tissue in model group and XNJ group were higher than that in sham group 24 h after ischemia-reperfusion (P ＜ 0.05).EB levels in sham group and XNJ group were significantly lower than that in model group 48 h and 72 h after ischemia-reperfusion (P ＜ 0.05).Caveolin-1 levels in cerebral cortex in sham group and XNJ group were significantly higher than that in model group 24 h,48 h and 72 h after ischemia-reperfusion (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions After global ischemia-reperfusion,Xingnaojing (XNJ) injection could protect blood-brain barrier in virtue of regulating caveolin-1 protein level.

Objective To summarize the clinical characters, diagnostic and therapeutic strategy of the cured patient with human H5N1 avian influenza pneumonia in mainland of China,and to provide effective experiences for the physicians to diagnose human avian influenza infection.Methods The clinical data of the cured patient with H5N1 avian influenza infection in China was analyzed.Results The patient was treated with short-term symmetrel and ribavirin for antiviral therapy companied with the lowdosage and long-term(4 weeks) glucocorticoid therapy.The CPAP assistant ventilation was used and the airway was kept unobstructed.The antibiotic was used to prevent and control the followed infection.The supportive treatment was applied to protect the organ′s function of the patient.The pathogenetic condition of the patient became better with the hemogram risen and the lungs pathological changes absorbed gradually.The chest CT reexamined at the 7th day of the hospitalized-term suggested that the left lung fibrosis started to be absorbed and it was obviously absorbed at the 16th day.The breath function and all the internal organs functions became better.The patient convalesced and left hospital at the 46th day.Conclusion In the human avian influenza infection,the pathogenetic condition may progress quickly after the pneumonia appears.The lung injury and lung fibrosis as well as the multi-organs dysfunction were emerged in the patient rapidly.The progression of disease can be controlled and the prognosis can be improved by the prompt and correct treatment.

Objective Decline in cognitive function caused by diabetes has become a research hotpots.The article aims to explore the relationship between serums regulated upon activation normal T cell expressed and secreted(RANTES) and cognitive dysfunction of newly diognosed T2DM patients, and provide a new way of prevention and treatment for newly diagnosed T2DM patients with cognitive dysfunction.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the general information and clinical biochemical indexes of the 123 patients who were first diagnosed of T2DM from March 2015 to September 2016 in Tangshan Worker''s Hospital.The levels of serum RANTES were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the cognitive function of all patients was assessed by Mini-mental State Examinatlon(MMSE)and Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsyehologic Status(RBANS).Finally, newly diognosed T2DM patients were divided into T2DM non-cognitive disorder group and T2DM cognitive disorder group according to the MMSE score.We analyzed whether there are differences among general information,serum RANTES level and RBANS cognitive function score of two group patients.The correlations of RANTES with general information and cognitive scores were analyzed by single factor correlation and multiple stepwise regression analysis.Results ①The level of serum RANTESin T2DM cognitive disorder group[(2.62±0.37)mmol/L] was significantly higher compared to that in T2DM noncognitive disorder group[(2.29±0.36)mmol/L], and there was significant difference(P<0.001).②The instant memory,visual span,attention,delayed memory score and RBANS score of T2DM cognitive disorder group were(70.90±14.71)、(92.90±15.50)、(87.80±16.45)、(88.02±14.28)、(82.92±11.07), which were significant declined compared to those of T2DM non-cognitive disorder group [(85.28±13.97),(104.18±12.69),(101.51±12.94),(96.42±10.30),(95.84±9.94)], and there was significant difference (P≤0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups′ verbal function score [(96.08±7.87),(99.31±9.83)] (P=0.056).③The RANTES was negatively correlated with the total score of instant memory, visual span, verbal function, delayed memory score and RBANS score in T2DM patients(the valuue of r were-3.48、-2.35、-2.01、-3.02、-4.17).Conclusion There was a significant correlation between serum RANTES level and cognitive dysfunction, and elevated serum RANTES level could be used as an important indicator for monitoring newly diognosed T2DM patients with cognitive dysfunction.
