Objective To investigate the effects of Semaglutide injection on glycolipid metabolism and adipokine levels in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)patients with varying body mass index(BMI).Methods A total of 143 patients with T2DM admitted to our hospital between May 2022 and May 2024 were enrolled in this study.Based on their BMI,the patients were categorized into three groups:the normal-weight group(31 cases,18.5 kg/m2≤BMI<24 kg/m2),the super-recombinant group(49 cases,24 kg/m2≤BMI<28 kg/m2),and the obese group(63 cases,28 kg/m2≤BMI).28 kg/m2≤BMI).All participants received standard guideline-based conventional treatment and were additionally administered semaglutide injections for a duration of 12 weeks.The study compared glucose metabolism,islet β-cell function,lipid metabolism,body composition,adipokine levels before treatment and at 12 weeks post-treatment,as well as safety profiles during the treatment period across the three groups.Results After 12 weeks of treatment,the levels of fasting blood glucose(FPG),2-hour postprandial blood glucose(2 h PG),glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c),insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR),serum triglycer-ides(TG),total cholesterol(TC),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)decreased in all three groups.Specifically,the reductions were more pronounced in the obesity group compared to the normal group and the super-reorganization group,and the super-reorganization group showed intermediate reductions between the obesity and normal groups(P<0.05).Conversely,fasting C-peptide(FCP),2-hour postprandial C-peptide(2 h CP),irisin,adipsin,and omentin-1 levels increased in all three groups after treatment,with the greatest increases observed in the obesity group,followed by the super-reorganization group,both of which were significantly higher than the normal group(P<0.05).Additionally,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)levels increased in all three groups after 12 weeks of treatment(P<0.05).BaselineBMI and total body fat mass(WBFM)were significantly higher in the obesity group compared to the super-reorganization group,which in turn were higher than the normal group(P<0.05).After treatment,BMI and WBFM decreased in both the obesity and super-reorganization groups,but remained significantly higher than in the normal group(P<0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions during treatment was 12.90%(4/31),10.20%(5/49),and 11.11%(7/63)in the normal,super-reorganization,and obesity groups,respectively,with no statistically significant differences among the groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Smiglutide injection can improve glucose and lipid metabolism,islet function,and adipokine levels in T2DM patients across different BMI categories,while also regulating body composition.It dem-onstrates a particularly strong improvement effect on glucose and lipid metabolism,islet function,and adipokine levels in overweight and obese T2DM patients.Additionally,smiglutide does not increase safety risks.

Objective? To investigate the knowledge-attitude-practice level of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) nurses on the Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) system, and analyze its influencing factors, so as to lay a foundation for the establishment of related knowledge training program later. Methods? From October to November 2018,by convenience sampling, ICU nurses in General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University were selected as objects of the study. Self-designed ICU Nurses' Knowledge-Attitude-Behavior on MEWS System Questionnaire was used to investigate the nurses by means of Wenjuanxing online. The influencing factors were analyzed by single factor analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. Results? Totally 92 valid questionnaires were retrieved. The ICU nurses got the score of (68.42±22.09)in the "knowledge of MEWS", and (52.29±19.75) in the "attitude of MEWS" ,and (56.64±18.99) in the "practice of MEWS"; multiple linear regression analysis results indicated that working length, whether or not had contacted MEWS before, and educational background were the influencing factors of the practice of MEWS(P< 0.05). Conclusions? The knowledge, attitude and practice of ICU nurses in Ningxia are generally at the medium and low levels, among which knowledge is still acceptable, while attitude and practice are relatively poor. It suggests that managers should focus on attitudes, guide ICU nurses to recognize and actively apply them to assess patients' condition, and actively explore early warning management mode suitable for ICU critical patients.

Objective To investigate whether epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)is involved in the anti-invasion and anti-metastasis effects of curcumin on MDA-MB-2 3 1 breast cancer cell line and further analyze the underlying mechanisms.Methods MTT method was used to detect the anti-proliferative effect of curcumin on MDA-MB-2 3 1 cell line induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS).The morphological changes were determined by optical and transmission electron microscopy,respectively.The expressions of Vimentin,E-cadherin,NF-κB and Snail were analyzed using RT-PCR and Western blotting.Results Curcumin could inhibit the occurrence of LPS-induced EMT of MDA-MB-2 3 1 breast cancer cell line, decrease the expression of LPS-induced EMT marker Vimentin and increase the expression of E-cadherin, resulting in the inhibition of in vitro cell motility and invasiveness.These actions were mediated by inactivating NF-κB-Snail signaling pathways.Conclusion Our data provide a new perspective of the anti-invasion mechanism of curcumin,indicating that the effect is in part due to its ability to inhibit the EMT process.

Objective To investigate the characteristic of intelligence of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).Methods 60 ADHD children were estimated with Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-fourth edition (WISC-Ⅳ). Results The full scale intelligence quotient (FSIQ) and 4 indices of ADHD children were lower than the average (P<0.05). All the subtests scores of ADHD children were lower than the average (P<0.05) except decoding. Conclusion The general intelligence and abilities of verbal comprehension, reasoning,working memory and operation speed are in the normal range in ADHD children, but poorer than normal children.

Objective To explore the correlation between family environment and self-concept of children with attention deficit hyperactivitydisorder (ADHD). Methods Family Environment Scales Chinese Version (FES-CV) and Piers-Harris Children's Self-concept Scale(PHCSS) were used to evaluate 79 children with ADHD and 71 normal children. Results The scores of behavior, intelligence and school,physical appearance, sociability, happiness and satisfaction, and total scores of PHCSS were lower in ADHD group than in normal group (P<0.05). Compared with the normal group, the ADHD group presented lower scores in cohesion, independence, intellectual-cultural orientation,moral religious emphasis, organization (P<0.05) and obviously higher score in conflicts (P<0.01) in FES-CV. The stepwise regressionanalysis showed that moral religion emphasis of FES-CV was a major risk factor to total scores of PHCSS in ADHD children (P<0.05). ConclusionChildren with ADHD show more family dysfunction, which may correlated with their poor self-concept.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of attention in children with comorbid attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and tic disorder (TD) (CAT). Methods 60 children with comorbid ADHD and TD (CAT), 79 children with ADHD, 60 children with TD and 71 normal control children (NG) were collected. All of those cases were evaluated with the integrated visual and auditory continuous performance test (IVA-CPT). Results It was slightly higher for visual response control quotient (VRCQ) in CAT group(85.15 ±21.10) than those in ADHD group(78.52 ± 21.85) (P < 0.05), there was no significant different in the other five scores between CAT group and ADHD group (P>0.05). It was significantly lower for the full response control quotient (FRCQ), auditory response control quotient (ARCQ) ,visual response control quotient (VRCQ), full attention quotient (FAQ), auditory attention quotient (AAQ) and visual attention Quotient (VAQ) in CAT group (83.43 ± 20.98,86.12 ± 19.88,85.15 ± 21. 10,64.88 ± 16.88,67.92 ± 17. 11 ,67.97 ± 20.04) than those in TD group(96.47 ± 17.83,97.50 ± 17.62,95.72 ± 18.87,85.37 ± 18.54,86.47 ± 17.32,87.43 ± 19.89) and those in normal control group(98.42 ± 12.67,101.50 ± 15.39,95.92 ± 11.79,99.33 ± 12.98,98.50 ± 12.09,100.00 ± 16.12) (P<0.01). Conclusion There have serious reduced control ability and attention deficit in children with CAT. The attention deficit is attributed to the existence of ADHD.
