Objective:To investigate the related factors of cognitive impairment in middle-aged and old-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:A total of 970 patients with T2DM(585 middle-aged group and 385 old-aged group)were selected from residents of a large community in Beijing from September to December 2018.The Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)was used to assess the cognitive func-tion.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the related factors.Results:The detection rates of cognitive impairment were 12.0％and 13.5％in middle-aged and old-aged patients with T2DM,respectively.Among mid-dle-aged patients with T2DM,work(OR=0.22,95％CI:0.03-0.77)and education at the junior college or un-dergraduate level and above(OR=0.18,95％CI:0.04-0.55)were protective factors for cognitive impair-ment.Myocardial infarction(OR=4.13,95％CI:1.26-13.63)was a risk factor for cognitive impairment.Among old-aged patients with T2DM,drinking tea 1-2 times a week(OR=0.11,95％CI:0.01-0.58)and education at the junior college or undergraduate level and above(OR=0.19,95％CI:0.05-0.54)were protective factors for cognitive impairment.Stroke(OR=3.64,95％CI:1.55-8.39)and good sleep self-assessment(OR=2.75,95％CI:1.13-7.35)were risk factors for cognitive impairment.Conclusion:Cognitive impairment in middle-aged pa-tients with T2DM is related to work,education level and myocardial infarction,and cognitive impairment in old-aged patients with T2DM is related to lifestyle,education level and stroke.

Integrin α _v β ₃ is overexpressed in various tumor cells and angiogenesis. To date, no drug has been proven to target it for therapy. A first-in-human study was designed to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and dosimetry of ¹⁷⁷Lu-AB-3PRGD2, a novel integrin α _v β ₃-targeting radionuclide drug with an albumin-binding motif to optimize the pharmacokinetics. Ten patients (3 men, 7 women; aged 45 ± 16 years) with integrin α _v β ₃-avid tumors were recruited to accept ¹⁷⁷Lu-AB-3PRGD2 injection in a dosage of 1.57 ± 0.08 GBq (42.32 ± 2.11 mCi), followed by serial scans to obtain its dynamic distribution in the body. Safety tests were performed before and every 2 weeks after the treatment for 6-8 weeks. No adverse event over grade 3 was observed. ¹⁷⁷Lu-AB-3PRGD2 was excreted mainly through the urinary system, with intense radioactivity in the kidneys and bladder. Moderate distribution was found in the liver, spleen, and intestines. The estimated blood half-life was 2.85 ± 2.17 h. The whole-body effective dose was 0.251 ± 0.047 mSv/MBq. The absorbed doses were 0.157 ± 0.032 mGy/MBq in red bone marrow and 0.684 ± 0.132 mGy/MBq in kidneys. This first-in-human study of ¹⁷⁷Lu-AB-3PRGD2 treatment indicates its promising potential for targeted radionuclide therapy of integrin α _v β ₃-avid tumors. It merits further studies in more patients with escalating doses and multiple treatment courses.

Xuzhou Medical University, relying on the National Demonstration Center for Experimental Basic Medical Science Education and the scientific research platform of Jiangsu Key Laboratory of Brain Disease Bio-information, organizes clinical medical undergraduates to participate in the innovative training program of scientific research practice. Taking the research on signal transduction of ischemic nerve cell injury as an example, this paper studies the innovative practice training on experimental ability and scientific research thinking of medical undergraduates, and preliminarily discusses the promoting effect of innovative practice training on teaching reform of biochemistry and molecular biology. Innovative training in scientific research practice provides a new teaching method, which effectively promotes the cultivation of scientific research quality of medical undergraduates and the teaching reform of theoretical courses.

Objective To investigate the effects of low-frequency sound waves (16~160 Hz) of somatosensory music on healthy people’s microcirculation in kidney and bladder meridians;To discuss the collateral channels biophysical mechanisms in somatosensory music treatment. Methods Low-frequency sound waves of somatosensory music were played near the 30 healthy people’s kidney and bladder meridians orderly. At the same time, Laser Doppler Flowmetry was used to analyze microcirculation in meridian acupoints.Results The low-frequency acoustic waves with different frequencies had significantly different effects on kidney and bladder meridians. The effects of the same frequency on different acupoints of the same meridian were similar. The G1 (49.00 Hz) showed the most significant effects on the kidney meridian (P<0.01);G2 (98.00 Hz) showed the most significant impact on bladder meridian (P<0.01).Conclusion The kidney and bladder meridians have selective absorption characteristics to the low-frequency sound waves of different frequencies. Specific frequency sound waves can cause resonance in kidney and bladder meridians.

Objective To investigate the effects of aggrecanase-2 knockdown in chondrocytes from rheumatoid arthritis patient by shRNA infection.Methods Cartilage harvested from rheumatoid arthritis patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty was digested by pancreatin and type Ⅱ collagen enzyme to obtain chondrocytes.Then chondrocytes were cultured and passaged to second or third generation.After aggrecanase-2 shRNA5,aggrecanase-2 shRNA6,aggrecanase-2 shRNA7,aggrecanase-2 shRNA8 infection,growth and morphological changes of the chondrocytes were examined.To select the best target sequence,mRNA expression of aggrecanase-2 and aggrecan was detected by RT-qPCR assay on day 2,5,10,represented with Ct (Cycle threshold) value.Expression of aggrecan protein was detected by immunocytochemistry,represented with IOD (integral optical density) value.Results aggrecanase-2 knockdown had no obvious effects on the morphology and growth of the chondrocytes.MOI (multiplicity of infection) was 100,50,25,and infection efficiency was 90％,60％,30％ with the corresponding viral load of 200 μl,100 μl,50 μl after transfection.mRNA expression of aggrecanase-2 was suppressed significantly,especially the group of shRNA5 which suppressed aggrecanase-2 expression from 0.876 3±0.115 6 to 0.069 9±0.015 1 (P ＜ 0.05).mRNA and protein expression of aggrecan were significantly upregulated after infection.mRNA expression of aggrecan increased from 0.992 1±0.201 3 to 3.049 2±0.278 2 (P ＜ 0.05) and protein expression of aggrecan increased from 496.160 5± 225.673 7 to 4 525.433 0±1 131.813 0 (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion aggrecanase-2 suppression in chondrocytes by lentivirius infection is an effective method to protect the expression of aggrecan.

Objective To discuss different effects of low frequency sound waves of different timbres on microcirculation and transcutaneous oxygen partial pressure of Weizhong (BL40) of healthy people;To study the mechanism of somatosensory music therapy. Methods The same frequency (98.00 Hz), different timbres (sounds of guqin, flute, ocarina, bell, and drum were simulated) low frequency sound waves were played near Weizhong acupoint of 30 healthy persons. Laser Doppler flowmetry was used to analyze microcirculation and the changes of transcutaneous oxygen pressure of meridian acupoints, when each timbre was played for 60, 120, 180, 240 and 300 s. Results Sound waves of bell, drum, and flute made point microcirculation and transcutaneous oxygen pressure gradually increase, and the influence of drum>bell>flute;timbre waves of ocarina and guqin made the point microcirculation and transcutaneous oxygen pressure decrease gradually decrease, and the decrease of ocarina was more significant than that of guqin. In the same time point, sound waves of bell made point microcirculation and transcutaneous oxygen pressure increase more than the other sound waves (P<0.01). Conclusion Low frequency sounds of different timbres belong to different properties of five elements. They have different components in frequency spectrum, and can create different effects on acupoints.
