Objective:To analyze the latent prevalence of hepatitis B and type 2 diabetes and their correlation through an observational study.Methods:This study used a case-control design. The cases with diabetes were recruited through the diabetes management system and village doctors, while the controls without diabetes were screened from volunteers recruited by village health clinics. Capillary blood samples were collected from the study participants for the measurement of real-time blood glucose level, and venous blood samples were taken from them for the detections of HBV serological markers. Firth logistic regression model was used to fit the relationship between HBsAg positive status and diabetes status.Results:The study included 1 218 diabetes patients, 62 patients with impaired fasting glucose and 491 cases without diabetes. In the cases without diagnosis of diabetes, 11.15% had impaired fasting blood glucose and 4.43% had diabetes. Among those who reported no or unknown diagnosis of hepatitis B, 1.73% were positive for HBsAg, while 18.80% were positive for both HBV core antibody and surface antibody, indicating latent infection of hepatitis B virus. In the non-diabetes group, 0.81% reported hepatitis B history, and in the diabetes group, 2.76% reported hepatitis B history. After adjustment, the HBsAg positive rate was higher in the diabetes group ( OR=2.90, 95% CI: 1.21-6.91). Conclusions:Both diabetes and hepatitis B exhibited a high degree of latent prevalence. The HBsAg positive rate was significantly higher in those with diabetes than in those without diabetes, indicating a potential correlation. These findings highlighted the importance of strengthened screening and management of comorbidities.

Objective:Exploration of the immunogenicity and persistence of three different immunization regimens of hepatitis B vaccines in diabetic patients.Methods:Participants with diabetes and non-diabetic individuals were recruited from study sites and assigned to different vaccination regimens: the diabetic group (①D60Yeast0-1: received 60 μg Saccharomyces cerevisiae-derived recombinant HBV vaccine on a 0-1-month schedule; ②D20Yeast0-1-6: received 20 μg Saccharomyces cerevisiae-derived recombinant HBV vaccine on a 0-1-6-month schedule; ③D20CHO0-1-6: received 20 μg Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell-derived recombinant HBV vaccine on a 0-1-6-month schedule) and the non-diabetic group (ND20Yeast0-1-6: non-diabetic individuals received 20 μg Saccharomyces cerevisiae-derived recombinant HBV vaccine on a 0-1-6-month schedule). Venous blood samples were collected at 1,12, and 48 months post-full vaccination to measure anti-HBs levels. Differences in immunogenicity between diabetic and non-diabetic groups, as well as among diabetic subgroups, were analyzed.Results:This study enrolled a total of 564 subjects. In the D20CHO0-1-6 group, the seroconversion rate decreased from 90.72% (95% CI: 84.84%-96.60%) at 1 month to 74.23% (95% CI: 65.37%-83.08%) at 48 months, and the antibody geometric mean concentration (GMC) decreased from 676.08 (95% CI: 389.05- 1 148.20) mIU/ml at 1 month to 33.11 (95% CI: 23.44-46.77) mIU/ml at 48 months. In the D20Yeast0-1-6 group, the seroconversion rate declined from 93.81% (95% CI: 89.29%-98.32%) at 1 month to 63.72% (95% CI: 54.71%-72.72%) at 48 months, with antibody GMC dropping from 630.96 (95% CI: 407.40-954.99) mIU/ml to 25.70 (95% CI: 17.78-38.02) mIU/ml over the same period. For the D60Yeast0-1 group, seroconversion rate fell from 82.03% (95% CI: 75.29%-88.77%) to 56.25% (95% CI: 47.54%-64.96%), and antibody GMC decreased from 81.28 (95% CI: 51.29-128.82) mIU/ml to 15.49 (95% CI: 11.75-20.89) mIU/ml between 1 and 48 months. The ND20Yeast0-1-6 group (non-diabetic control) exhibited a higher initial seroconversion rate of 97.56% (95% CI: 94.80%- 100.00%) at 1 month, but it still declined to 76.42% (95% CI: 68.82%-84.03%) at 48 months, with antibody GMC decreasing from 1 318.30 (95% CI: 912.01- 1 905.50) mIU/ml to 34.67 (95% CI: 25.12-47.86) mIU/ml. Multivariate analysis on factors influencing the GMC of antibodies revealed statistically significant differences in antibody GMC between the D20Yeast0-1-6 group and ND20Yeast0-1-6 group at 12 months (a OR=0.73, 95% CI: 0.58-0.93) and 48 months (a OR=0.79, 95% CI: 0.63-0.99) post-vaccination (all P<0.05). As for the diabetic population, when compared with the D20Yeast0-1-6 group, the D60Yeast0-1 group also showed statistically significant differences in antibody GMC at 12 months (a OR=0.57, 95% CI: 0.44-0.74) and 48 months (a OR=0.60, 95% CI: 0.47-0.76)(all P<0.05). Conclusions:The seroconversion rate and antibody GMC gradually decreased over time (1, 12, and 48 months) in the four groups. Diabetic patients showed poor immunogenicity and persistence to hepatitis B vaccines. The immunogenicity and persistence of hepatitis B vaccination in diabetic patients were associated with vaccine type, antigen dose, and vaccination regimen. The CHO cell-recombinant hepatitis B vaccine demonstrated better performance in terms of immunogenicity and persistence among the diabetic population.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of the functional dressing of Polygonum capitatum nanofibers （P-PVP-PCL）. METHODS P-PVP-PCL were prepared by electrospinning technology， and the microstructure of P-PVP-PCL was observed. The antibacterial activity and antioxidant activity of P-PVP-PCL and its effects on the survival rate， adhesion and migration rate of mouse fibroblast L929 cells were investigated. The effects of medical gauze dressing， blank nanofiber dressing （PVP-PCL） and P- PVP-PCL on the healing rate of the wound were investigated by establishing the back skin wound model of rats. The pathological changes of the wound tissue and collagen fiber deposition were observed， as well as the number of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 （CD31） positive blood vessels and the expression of transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β） protein in wound tissue. RESULTS P-PVP-PCL had a smooth surface and a double-layer structure at the cross-section. The inhibition rates of P-PVP-PCL against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were （98.88±0.66）% and （94.75±1.41）% ， respectively. The antioxidant activity of P-PVP-PCL was （83.69±1.56）%， and the cell activity of the P-PVP-PCL group was significantly higher than those of the control group and PVP-PCL group （P＜0.05）. Compared with medical gauze dressings， P-PVP-PCL was more conducive to L929 cell adhesion； at 48 hours， the cell scratches in this group had basically healed. Compared with the medical gauze dressing group， the wound healing rates of the PVP-PCL group and the P-PVP-PCL group were significantly increased （P＜0.05）. On the 14th day of intervention， the wounds in the P-PVP-PCL group had basically healed， there was no dermal necrosis in the wound tissue， and the collagen fibers were arranged relatively neatly and the density was relatively uniform. The number of CD31 positive blood vessels and the expression of TGF-β protein showed a downward trend compared with the 7th day of intervention， and the number of CD31 positive blood vessels was significantly lower than those of the medical gauze dressing group and PVP-PCL group （P＜0.05）， but the protein expression of TGF- β was significantly higher than those of the medical gauze dressing group and the PVP-PCL group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS P-PVP-PCL has good antibacterial and antioxidant activity in E-mail：444096585@qq.com vitro， and can promote the proliferation， adhesion and migration of L929 cells. It can promote wound healing of rats in vivo.

Type 2 diabetes mullitus is a clinical syndrome characterized by elevated plasma glucose caused by genetic and environmental factors.The basic pathophysiological mechanism is a metabolic disorder caused by defects in insulin secretion and/or insulin action.As a hormone that regulates the growth and basal metabolism of the body,thyroid hormone has a close relationship with type 2 diabetes.This article reviews the relationship between thyroid hormone levels and type 2 diabetes mullitus.

Diabetic neuropathy is one of the common long-term complications of diabetes,which occurs in the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system,and its most common type is diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).Diabetic peripheral neuropathy can not only cause pain,numbness and limitation of activity in limbs,but also lead to diabetic foot ulcers even amputations due to hypoesthesia and anesthesia,ultimately affects the quality of life of patients with diabetes and increases the mortality.Nearly half of patients with DPN do not have any clinical symptoms,thus the early detection and diagnosis of diabetic peripheral neuropathy are particularly critical.Current perception threshold (CPT) evaluation is considered as a mean of early detection of DPN,which gains more and more attentions because of its non-invasive feature,simple operation and high sensitivity.So far,there is scarcely any article summarizing CPT evaluations' applications in researching the relationships between DPN and its risk factors.This review will discuss the principles and advantages of CPT evaluations,and its relationship with DPN will also be summarized as follows.

Diabetic cardiomyopathy refers to the heart disease without coronary artery disease and hypertension,diabetic patients with ventricular dysfunction.The molecular mechanism of diabetic cardiomyopathy remains unclear.Protein and lipid kinase phosphoinositol 3-kinase (PI3Ks) are thought to regulate cardiac damage in diabetes mellitus.This article reviews the role of PI3K subtypes and downstream signal transduction in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy,including cardiac metabolic regulation,contractility,hypertrophy,cardiomyocyte death and inflammation.

Diabetic mellitus induced erectile dysfunction (DIED) is a common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which seriously affects the physical and mental health of male T2DM patients. The occurrence of DIED involves a variety of pathophysiological changes such as vascular tissue, nerve, endocrine and so on. But the traditional treatment of erectile dysfunction is not ideal for DIED. Glucagon like peptide (GLP)- 1 receptor agonist has been widely used as a new drug for the treatment of diabetes, and the representative drugs are exenatide and liraglutide. Existing research shows that it can improve endothelial cell function, neuropathy and sex hormone secretion, reduce body weight and insulin resistance. Therefore, these drugs may be a new choice for patients with DIED.

Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9) inhibitor is recently added to the list of effective lipid-lowering drugs in addition to statins, which can reduce low density lipoprotein cholesterol, treat increased low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) patients. In the past 30 years, the prevalence of dyslipidemia increased significantly. LDL-C characterized dyslipidemia is an important risk factor of ASCVD and a part of metabolic syndrome, which exists before or after or at the same time of the appearance of obesity, diabetes, and glucose intolerance, coronary heart disease and other diseases. Decreasing LDL-C level can significantly reduce the incidence and mortality risk of ASCVD. In this paper, the research on the regulation of dyslipidemia by PCSK9 inhibitors is discussed.
