Objective To investigate the impact of subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) on macrovascular complications in elderly type 2 diabetic patients.Methods A total of 1170 hospitalized elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled in the study through systematic sampling and underwent testing for blood biochemical indicators, thyroid function and C peptide.Parameters for macro-vascular complications, including the ankle/brachial index (ABI), transcranial Doppler vascular ultrasound (TCD), electrocardiogram (ECG), ejection fraction (EF), history of coronary heart disease, and hypertension grading were also monitored.Results All the subjects were divided into two groups based on the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) level: the euthyroid group (4 mU/L≥TSH>0.4 mU/L) and the SCH group (TSH>4 mU/L), and the latter was further sub-grouped into the mild SCH group (10 mU/L≥TSH>4 mU/L) and the severe SCH group (TSH>10 mU/L).ABI was significantly decreased in SCH (R/L: 0.86/0.92, P<0.01).Levels of basal C-peptide (CP0) and post glucose-challenge C-peptide (CP1-3) were higher in the SCH group than in the euthyroid group [(2.16±0.93)pg/L vs.(1.56±1.05)pg/L, (0.53±0.25)pg/L v, (0.38±0.37),(0.72±0.23) pg/L vs.(0.56 ±0.32) pg/L, (6.21± 2.69) pg/L vs.(4.46 ± 2.62) pg/L,respectively, P<0.01 for all].EF was higher in the SCH group than in the euthyroid group[(70.87± 6.66)% vs.(65.10 ± 8.08%), P< 0.01].There were no significant differences in other biochemical indicators, ECG, TCD, history of coronary heart disease, hypertension grading and intervention treatment (P>0.05 for all).Conclusions Lower extremity atherosclerotic disease has a higher incidence in elderly type 2 diabetic patients with SCH and occurs earlier than other macrovascular complications.Elevated TSH levels and insulin resistance may be the major causes.

Objective To study the effects of community comprehensive intervention model on osteoporosis, in order to provides a reference for osteoporosis health education work. Methods A multistage stratified random cluster sampling was applied to conduct a survey in Jiangsu province, in accordance with the economic level and geographic location. Nanjing, Nantong and Xuzhou cities were sampled, three urban streets were sampled in every district , respectively. A total of 1 500 40-69 years old community residents were screened, 619 high-risk participants for osteoporosis were arranged into the intervention group, and a total of 590 residents from the same communities were chosen as control group, who were gender- and age-matched with the intervention group. The intervention group residents received health management and comprehensive intervention, after half a year, a self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate the effects. Results Compared with control group, after six months, knowledge of intervention group related to osteoporosis awareness was improved significantly, such as the most serious harm to human body for osteoporosis (χ2=24.27), characteristic of osteoporosis (χ2=11.05), basic supplements to improve bone health (χ2=60.65) , the recommended daily calcium intake to postmenopausal women and the elderly (χ2=26.80), the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05); daily behavior related to diet and exercise of intervention group has improved significantly, such as drinking milk or itsproducts less than 3 days a week (χ2=25.83), eating beans and products for less than 3 days a week (χ2=19.20), drinking coffee for more than three days a week (χ2=7.77), not often taking outdoor activities (χ2=18.55) ,(P<0.05);Diseases and symptoms related to osteoporosis in intervention group was significantly reduced (P<0.001). Conclusions The osteoporosis is one of the most important public health problem for Jiangsu province, the work for osteoporosis prevention and control should be emphasized in community.

Objective:To study the antimalarial mechanism of benflumetol (B). Methods: Flow cytometry (FCM) was used to analyze the effects of B and chloroquine (CQ) on DNA content of Plasmodium berghei and pH value of the lysosome of malarial parasites. Results: DNA content of the plasmodia not treated with any drugs was not changed in 24 hours,while benflumetol could decrease the DNA content: the DNA content began to decrease 2 h after the drug administration and reached the minimum by 16 h, but somewhat increased at 24 h after administration. The pH in the lysosome increased 1 h and restored premedication level 4 h after benflumetol administration. Chloroquine had the same effects on DNA and lysosome pH of malarial parasites.Conclusions: The antimalarial mechanism of benflumetol is directly related to its effect to inhibit the synthesis of DNA.

OBJECTIVE:
To perform the validation and analysis of forensic parameters of Goldeneye DNA ID 26Y system.
METHODS:
Based on the validation rules of Scientific Working Group on DNA Analysis Methods (SWGDAM), the kit was assessed from several parts, as test of PCR system, reproducibility, accuracy, and sensitivity, etc. And Y-STR loci of 517 unrelated healthy individuals from Eastern China were genotypes by this kit. The distribution and frequency of haplotype were calculated and forensic parameters of the kit were assessed.
RESULTS:
The complete profiles can be obtained even when the PCR reaction volume with 6.25 microL. And correct profile was obtained with DNA down to 125 pg. No reproducible peaks were detected with the DNA of common animals and microorganism with the kit. For the male-male mixture testing, average 70% of the minor alleles were obtained when the ratios of 1:19 and 19:1. For the male-female mixture testing, results showed that the sensitivity of the kit was no compromised with the addition of female samples.
CONCLUSION
The validation studies demonstrated that Goldeneye DNA ID 26Y system has good sensitivity and specificity, and suitable for mixture testing. The polymorphism of 26 Y-STR loci included in this kit are good for forensic application.
