Time in range (TIR) refers to the time or percentage of time within 24 h that glucose levels are in the target range; or the time that blood glucose levels are higher and lower the target range. TIR is a core parameter of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and an important indicator for the evaluation of blood glucose in treatment of diabetic patients. Recent studies have confirmed that TIR is closely related to cardiovascular complications of diabetes, and it may become a key indicator for predicting the risk of cardiovascular complications in the future. This article reviews the research progress on the relationship between TIR and cardiovascular complications in diabetic patients, and discusses the value of TIR in the integrated management of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.

BACKGROUND:Mesenchymal stem cells are susceptible to senescence during in vitro expansion,which greatly hinders their application in vivo and in vitro.How to improve the replicative senescence of mesenchymal stem cells is an urgent problem to be solved in tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE:To determine whether vascular endothelial growth factor combined with basic fibroblast growth factor can improve the aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells caused by replicative passage. METHODS:Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were extracted by whole bone marrow adhesion method.Passage 2 cells were selected as normal control group.Passage 7 and later algebraic cells were selected as aging model group.Vascular endothelial growth factor(50 μg/L),basic fibroblast growth factor(10 μg/L),and their combination were administered.Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay.Cell senescence was observed by β-galactosidase activity staining.Cytoskeleton size and colony formation ability were observed by phalloidine staining and Giemsa staining,respectively,and the levels of senescence-related genes P16,P21,and P53 were detected by qRT-PCR.Gene expression levels of P16,P21,and P53 were tested by qRT-PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Vascular endothelial growth factor combined with basic fibroblast growth factor could promote the proliferation of aged bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,which began to enter the plateau stage on day 9,and the absorbance value of the combined intervention group was significantly higher than that of the model group on day 9(P<0.05).(2)The phenotypic markers of the cells in the combined intervention group did not change,and the cell morphology changed from broad to slender.(3)Compared with the model group,the positive rate of β-galactosidase was significantly decreased(P<0.01);the number of nuclei increased(P<0.001);the total area of cytoskeleton increased(P<0.01);colony formation ability was enhanced(P<0.05);expression level of P16 was decreased(P<0.01)in the combined intervention group.These results indicate that vascular endothelial growth factor combined with basic fibroblast growth factor can improve the senescence of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells caused by replicative passage without changing the cell phenotype.

Diabetes has become a global public health problem due to its high incidence, severe complications and prolonged illness. The ideal cardiovascular health behaviors and factors provide a straightforward and simple way to quantify important health behaviors and factors, and clear and operable targets for cardiovascular disease prevention. A growing number of studies confirm that having more ideal cardiovascular health behaviors and factors is also associated with a lower risk of diabetes. This article reviews the relationship between ideal cardiovascular health behaviors and factors and the occurrence and development of diabetes and its complications, and explores the value of ideal cardiovascular health behaviors and factors in the primary, secondary and tertiary prevention of diabetes.

Objective To observe the bone marrow signals of acetabulum and proximal femur of asymptomatic non?professional marathoners by 3.0 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) T1WI, and evaluate the bone marrow transformation, so as to obtain the effect of Marathon exercise on bone marrow composition and function. Methods The study group was randomly selected to participate in and complete the whole marathon at least once a year in the past two years. The training mileage of long?distance running was not less than 1 600 kilometers per year. There were no symptoms such as hip pain. There were no abnormalities in hip joint physical examination. The age of 22?53 years old. A total of 31 and 62 hips were evaluated. The control group was randomly selected 29 healthy persons (58 hip joints), aged 23?53 years, without hip pain and regular exercise. All subjects underwent hip joint MRI scan, and the hip joint MRI showed normal. At least 12 hours before MR scan, he did not engage in long?distance running or other sports. The bone marrow signal intensity of acetabulum and proximal femur in T1WI was compared with that of surrounding muscles and fat. The signal intensity was graded from low to high and evaluated by grade. The research group was divided into two groups according to the training years of marathon (running age). The running age of group A was more than 4 years and group B was less than 4 years. The distribution of bone marrow signal in proximal femur was also evaluated by a more intuitive 3?4 classification method. Mann?Whitney U test was used for statistical analysis. Results Bone marrow signal grading evaluation showed that there were significant differences in bone marrow signal grade distribution between the two groups (Z=-6.828, -4.779, -3.046,-5.266,-3.490,-5.053, P<0.05). In the study group, there were 14, 28 hips and 168 parts in group A, 17, 34 hips and 204 parts in group B, bone marrow signals were graded. There were significant differences in acetabulum, femoral neck and upper femoral shaft bone (Z=-2.202, -2.214, -2.730, P<0.05), but no significant differences in femoral head, trochanter and trochanter bone (Z=-0.886,-1.642,-0.711, P>0.05). To evaluate the classification of bone marrow signals in proximal femur, 62 cases of bone marrow signals in the study group were classified as follows: 10 cases with type 1a, 24 cases with type 1b, 17 cases with type 2 and 11 cases with type 3. In the control group, 58 cases of bone marrow signals in proximal femur were classified as follows: 2 cases with type 1a, 13 cases with type 1b, 26 cases with type 2 and 17 cases with type 3. There were significant differences between the two groups (Z=-4.003, P<0.05). Conclusion The T1WI signal intensity of asymptomatic non?professional marathoners′acetabulum and proximal femur bone marrow is lower than that of non?marathoners; the T1WI signal intensity of acetabulum, femoral neck and upper femoral shaft bone marrow of the elderly runners is lower; that is, marathon exercise has certain influence on the bone marrow signal of acetabulum and proximal femur, that is, the change of bone marrow signal in weight?bearing area has a certain phase with the amount of exercise.

Surface molecularly imprinted polymers (SMIPs) for selective adsorption of ampicillin sodium were synthesized using surface molecular imprinting technique with silica gel as a support. The physical and morphological characteristics of the polymers were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), elemental analysis and nitrogen adsorption–desorption test. The obtained results showed that the SMIPs displayed great adsorption capacity (13.5μg/mg), high recognition ability (the imprinted factor is 3.2) and good binding kinetics for ampicillin sodium. Finally, as solid phase extraction adsorbents, the SMIPs coupled with HPLC method were validated and applied for the enrichment, purification and determination of ampicillin sodium in real milk and blood samples. The averages of spiked accuracy ranged from 92.1%to 107.6%. The relative standard deviations of intra-and inter-day precisions were less than 4.6%. This study provides a new and promising method for enriching, extracting and determining ampicillin sodium in complex biological samples.

Objective To evaluate the valuse of endoscopic ultrasonography ( EUS ) for upper gastrointestinal submucosal lesions and the role of Photoshop in differentiating leiomyoma and stromal tumors. Methods Data of 656 patients with upper gastrointestinal submucosal lesions evaluated by EUS and receiving endoscopic submucosal dissection ( ESD ) from April 2010 to March 2015 were collected and retrospectively analyzed. The goldern standard for lesions size and origin was the intraoperative diagnosis of ESD, and that of the type of lesions ( leiomyoma, stromal tumor, ectopic pancreas, lipoma, etc.) was pathological and immunohistochemical finding. The consistency of diagnosis of the EUS was evaluated. In addition, Photoshop was used to differentiate diagnosis of leiomyoma and stromal tumors which were confirmed by pathology and immunohistochemistry. Results The consistency in diagnosing the size and lesion origins was 92?56%(560/605) and 88?43%(535/605)between EUS and ESD intraoperative result. The consistency in pathological types of EUS was 79?34%(480/605). Photoshop was used to analyze the EUS images of 177 stromal tumor and 241 leiomyoma. The gray value of stromal tumor was significantly higher than that of leiomyoma(59?97 VS 39?39, t=43?27, P<0?05).The echo of stromal tumor was higher. The standard deviation of gray value of leiomyoma were significantly lower than that of the stromal tumor ( 4?81 VS 5?42, t = 2?83, P < 0?05 ) , indicating the echo uniformity of leiomyoma was better. Conclusion EUS shows high accuracy rate for upper gastrointestinal submucosal lesions, providing more accurate basis for endoscopic therapy. EUS combined with Photoshop is helpful for differentiating stromal tumor from leiomyoma.

Objective To investigate the abnormal brain activity of first-episode depression by rest-ing state functional magnetic resonance imaging ( fMRI) .Methods Twenty-one adolescent participants diag-nosed with depression(AD) and 18 healthy controls ( HC) were recruited.Resting state fMRI brain scans were performed on all participants.Regional homogeneity ( ReHo) approach was applied to preprocess the fMRI datasets.The value of ReHo maps were obtained in the whole brain.Results ReHo values in the AD group were higher than those in the healthy controls in the right inferior temporal gyrus ( MINI:66,-24,-20) ,left upper cingulate cortex (-27,47,-6) ,frontal polar (-24,59,14) ,after upper left cingulate cortex (-1,-16,35),after the bottom left cingulate cortex (-2,-38,32),left praecuneus (-1,-48,65) com-pared with that in the healthy controls (P<0.05) .ReHo in the AD group decreased in the right middle tempo-ral gyrus (45,-34,32) compared with that in the healthy controls (P<0.05).Conclusion Extensive ReHo abnormalities were found in the brains of patients with first-episode,drug-naive depression,and these abnor-malities in spontaneous neural activity may contribute to the neuropathology of adolescent depression.
