Objective:To explore the association of bone resorption marker β carboxyterminal peptide of collagen Ⅰ (β-CTX) with hypercalcemia in patients with Graves′ disease (GD).Methods:287 patients with GD who were hospitalized in the endocrinology department of Fuyang People′s Hospital from January 2021 to December 2021 were divided into control group ( n=251) and hypercalcemia group ( n=36) according to the corrected blood calcium level. The clinical data and serum β-CTX level of the two groups were compared. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of hypercalcemia in GD patients. Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between serum β-CTX level and other indexes. Results:Of the 287 GD patients, 36 were diagnosed as hypercalcemia, and the incidence of hypercalcemia was 12.54%. The levels of free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), blood phosphorus (P) and β-CTX in hypercalcemia group were higher than those in control group, and the total parathyroid hormone (iPTH) in hypercalcemia group were lower than those in control group (all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that FT3 ( OR=1.283, 95% CI: 1.049-1.570, P<0.05), iPTH ( OR=0.924, 95% CI: 0.863-0.989, P<0.05), β-CTX ( OR=2.488, 95% CI: 1.193-5.189, P<0.05) were the influencing factors for hypercalcemia in GD patients. Pearson correlation analysis showed that β-CTX was positively correlated with FT3, FT4, blood calcium, P, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total procollagen type I amino end terminal peptide (PINP), N-bone-gamma-carboxyglutamic-acid-containing proteins (N-MID) and 25(OH)D, and negatively correlated with iPTH (all P<0.05). Conclusions:β-CTX is highly expressed in the serum of GD patients with hypercalcemia, which is a risk factor for the occurrence of hypercalcemia in GD patients.

Objective:To investigate the value of renal glucose threshold and related factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods:According to the cut-off point of normal renal glucose threshold(RT G 8.9-10 mmol/L), 107 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus hospitalized in the Endocrinology Department of our hospital were divided into three groups: high RT G group(RT G>10 mmol/L), medium RT G group(8.9 mmol/L≤RT G≤10 mmol/L), and low RT G group(RT G<8.9 mmol/L). The clinical data and biochemical characteristics of each group were collected and analyzed. Results:The proportions of patients with high, medium, and low RT G of type 2 diabetes mellitus were 56%, 29%, and 15%, respectively. There were significant differences in RT G value, age, course of disease, body mass index(BMI), fasting plasma glucose(FPG), HbA 1C, total cholesterol(TC), serum creatinine, mean blood glucose(MBG), and 24-hour urine glucose between high and medium RT G groups. RT G, gender, BMI, FPG, HbA 1C, TC, and MBG in patients with high RT G group were different from those in low RT G group. Only RT G revealed a difference between medium and low RT G groups. Correlation analysis showed that RT G was positively correlated with gender, age, BMI, HbA 1C, TC, and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C). Regression analysis showed that BMI, HbA 1C, and LDL-C were the related factors affecting the RT G of patients with type 2 diabetes. Conclusion:There is a larger proportion of patients with high RT G in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Their BMI, HbA 1C, and LDL-C are associated with RT G in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of sample pooling strategy on 2019-nCoV RNA detection results.Methods:Ten negative swabs were stored in 6 ml virus transport medium, mixed thoroughly and diluted 1∶2 and 1∶10. Inactivated 2019-nCoV culture medium was added to simulate pooling samples: 10 pooling samples, 5 pooling samples and 1 swab sample. Extraction and amplification were made using three nucleic acid extraction reagents a, b, and c with different extraction methods and systems, as well as five 2019-nCoV detection reagents A-E with various template loading volumes and sensitivities respectively.Results:For the same sample, the Ct values of extracted templates a were 2.10±0.47 and 3.46±0.62 earlier than extracted templates b and c. For samples with identical amplifying, the Ct valves of N and ORF1ab gene of A reagent were 1.16±0.48 and 2.36±0.54 earlier than that of reagent B. Adding nucleic acid of 10 negative swabs to the amplification system lagged the Ct values of reagent A by about 1.36±0.32 Ct, while Ct values of reagent B were not affected. Extracted by regent a, a lag of 1.66±0.39 Ct on average was observed in C, D, and E reagents in detecting pooling samples of ten swabs as compared with one swab sample. When extracting 400 copies/ml pooling samples of ten swabs by reagent a, N gene could be detected by reagents C and E, but not by reagent D.Conclusion:Large amount of extraneous DNA is introduced by sample pooling, which could interfere the effiency of extraction and amplification. Strategies of using extraction reagents with large loading volume and high effiency, together with amplification reagents with large template volume and low limit of detection are helpful for ensuring detection sensitivity of pooling samples, and greatly reducing the risk of false negative results.

Objective:To investigate the recurrence and influencing factors of diabetic foot ulcer in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods:Totally 185 type 2 diabetes patients with new-onset of diabetic foot ulcers admitted to Fuyang People′s Hospital of Anhui Province from January 2011 to December 2015 were enrolled in this study, including 120 males and 65 females, aged 40-79 years. All the patients were followed up for 3 years, and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed by the case-control study. The Kaplan-Meier cumulative recurrence curve was drawn according to the 3-year cumulative recurrence rate of diabetic foot ulcers. The time to visit, toe involvement, and amputation of involved toes in patients with recurrent diabetic foot ulcer were counted at the initial onset and the recurrence of the ulcers, respectively, and the data were statistically analyzed with t test and chi-square test. According to the recurrence of diabetic foot ulcers, the patients were divided into foot ulcer recurrence group and foot ulcer non-recurrence group. The gender, age, course of diabetes mellitus, length of hospital stay, visit time, body mass index, glycosylated hemoglobin HbA1c, total bilirubin, albumin, creatinine, cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL), triglycerides, hemoglobin, white blood cell count, toe involvement, toe amputation, ankle-brachial index, diabetic retinopathy (DR), diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), diabetic nephropathy (DN), history of hypertension, cardio-cerebrovascular disease, smoking, residence, solitary life, and walking disorder of patients between the two groups were compared, and the data were statistically analyzed with t test and chi-square test. Log-rank test was performed on the indexes with P<0.1 in comparison between two groups, and the indexes with statistically significant differences in Log-rank test were analyzed by multivariate Cox regression analysis to screen the influencing factors of recurrence of diabetic foot ulcer. Results:(1) The 3-year cumulative recurrence rate of diabetic foot ulcers in 185 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was 47.0% (87/185). (2) For 87 patients with diabetic foot ulcer recurrence, compared with that at the initial onset of the ulcers, the visit time was significantly shorter ( t=10.593, P<0.01), the toe amputation rate was significantly increased ( χ2=5.118, P<0.05), but there was no obvious change in toe involvement at the recurrence of the ulcers. (3) There were statistically significant differences in age, course of diabetes mellitus, length of hospital stay, body mass index, glycosylated hemoglobin HbA1c, total bilirubin, albumin, creatinine, cholesterol, LDL, HDL, hemoglobin, white blood cell count, gender, toe amputation, ankle-brachial index, DR, history of cardio-cerebrovascular disease, solitary life, and walking disorder of patients between foot ulcer recurrence group (87 patients) and foot ulcer non-recurrence group (98 patients) ( t=5.123, 4.242, 5.324, -24.572, 6.102, -1.984, -9.747, 3.226, 3.076, 3.646, -4.683, -7.502, 8.095, χ2=5.621, 18.433, 4.546, 5.785, 9.655, 7.625, 7.886, P<0.05 or P<0.01), while the rest of the indexes of patients between the two groups were similar. Log-rank test showed that the two groups had statistically significant differences in age, course of diabetes mellitus, length of hospital stay, glycosylated hemoglobin HbA1c, total bilirubin, albumin, creatinine, ankle-brachial index, DPN, and walking disorder ( χ2=210.046, 44.837, 34.107, 98.685, 66.532, 294.451, 260.554, 5.012, 6.818, 11.160, P<0.05 or P<0.01). Age, total bilirubin, albumin, DPN, and walking disorder were the influencing factors for the recurrence of diabetic foot ulcers in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (hazard ratio=1.024, 0.678, 0.849, 2.335, 4.099, 95% confidence interval=1.001-1.047, 0.558-0.823, 0.797-0.904, 1.280-4.258, 2.044-8.223, P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusions:The 3-year cumulative recurrence rate of diabetic foot ulcers in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is relatively high, with the influencing factors being age, total bilirubin, albumin, DPN, and walking disorder.
