AIM:To explore the central mechanisms by which metformin(Met)attenuates insulin resistance in high-fat diet(HF)-fed rats.METHODS:Forty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:normal chow(NC)group,HF group,HF+Met group,and HF+Met+SHU9119[melanocortin 4 receptor(MC4R)antagonist]group,with 10 rats per group.Treatments with HF and Met lasted for 12 weeks,while SHU9119 was injected for the last 10 d.Skeletal muscle AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)and silent information regulator 1(SIRT1)ex-pression and activity were measured,along with mitochondria oxidative stress markers,mitochondrial function and quanti-ty.Systemic and skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity were assessed using the average glucose infusion rate from 60 to 120 min(GIR60-120)and 2-deoxyglucose uptake(DGU)during hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp.RESULTS:The rats in HF group exhibited significantly reduced expression and activity of AMPK/SIRT1 in skeletal muscles(P<0.05).More-over,mitochondrial oxidative stress markers,reactive oxygen species(ROS)and malondialdehyde(MDA),were marked-ly elevated(P<0.05),and the activity of antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase(GPX)and manganese superoxide dismutase(MnSOD)was significantly decreased in HF group(P<0.05).There was also a notable decline in the activity of citrate synthase(P<0.05),a marker of mitochondrial oxidative capacity,and the copy number of mitochondrial DNA in HF group.These changes were correlated with significantly decreased GIR60-120 and DGU(P<0.05).Notably,Met treat-ment(HF+Met)restored the AMPK/SIRT1 expression and activity,improved mitochondrial function,and reduced oxida-tive stress,leading to improved insulin sensitivity(P<0.05).However,these beneficial effects of Met were reversed by the MC4R antagonist SHU9119 in HF+Met+SHU9119 group.CONCLUSION:Treatment with Met enhances skeletal muscle AMPK/SIRT1 expression and activity,reverses mitochondrial dysfunction,and improves insulin resistance in HF-fed rats.These effects might be mediated through the activation of hypothalamic MC4R.

Objective:To identify latent profile types of self-acceptance among newly diagnosed young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to recruit 162 patients with T2DM who visited the Department of Endocrinology at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between March 2023 and August 2024. A general information questionnaire was used to collect demographic and clinical data. The Acceptance and Action Diabetes Questionnaire (AADQ), Type 2 Diabetes Stigma Assessment Scale (DSAS-2), Diabetes Knowledge Test 2 (DKT2), and e-Health Literacy Scale (eHEALS) were used to assess self-acceptance, diabetes-related stigma, diabetes knowledge, and electronic health literacy, respectively. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was performed to identify categories of self-acceptance based on AADQ scores. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the influencing factors of self-acceptance profiles in young and middle-aged patients with T2DM. A total of 162 questionnaires were distributed, and 157 valid responses were collected, with an effective response rate of 96.91% (157/162) .Results:The mean AADQ score of the 157 patients was (46.64±10.34), ranging from 20 to 63, with a mean item score of (4.24±1.16). Three latent profile categories of self-acceptance were identified: the "high avoidance-low self-acceptance group" (28.66%, 45/157), the "moderate self-acceptance group" (47.13%, 74/157), and the "low avoidance-high self-acceptance group" (24.20%, 38/157). Logistic regression analysis showed that age, body mass index (BMI), diabetes-related stigma, diabetes knowledge, and electronic health literacy were significant influencing factors of self-acceptance profiles in young and middle-aged patients with T2DM ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The level of self-acceptance in newly diagnosed young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus remains suboptimal. Particular attention should be paid to patients who are younger, have a BMI below 24.0 kg/m 2, experience high levels of diabetes-related stigma, and have low levels of diabetes knowledge and electronic health literacy. Targeted education and management should be implemented based on patient characteristics.

AIM:To explore the central mechanisms by which metformin(Met)attenuates insulin resistance in high-fat diet(HF)-fed rats.METHODS:Forty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:normal chow(NC)group,HF group,HF+Met group,and HF+Met+SHU9119[melanocortin 4 receptor(MC4R)antagonist]group,with 10 rats per group.Treatments with HF and Met lasted for 12 weeks,while SHU9119 was injected for the last 10 d.Skeletal muscle AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)and silent information regulator 1(SIRT1)ex-pression and activity were measured,along with mitochondria oxidative stress markers,mitochondrial function and quanti-ty.Systemic and skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity were assessed using the average glucose infusion rate from 60 to 120 min(GIR60-120)and 2-deoxyglucose uptake(DGU)during hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp.RESULTS:The rats in HF group exhibited significantly reduced expression and activity of AMPK/SIRT1 in skeletal muscles(P<0.05).More-over,mitochondrial oxidative stress markers,reactive oxygen species(ROS)and malondialdehyde(MDA),were marked-ly elevated(P<0.05),and the activity of antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase(GPX)and manganese superoxide dismutase(MnSOD)was significantly decreased in HF group(P<0.05).There was also a notable decline in the activity of citrate synthase(P<0.05),a marker of mitochondrial oxidative capacity,and the copy number of mitochondrial DNA in HF group.These changes were correlated with significantly decreased GIR60-120 and DGU(P<0.05).Notably,Met treat-ment(HF+Met)restored the AMPK/SIRT1 expression and activity,improved mitochondrial function,and reduced oxida-tive stress,leading to improved insulin sensitivity(P<0.05).However,these beneficial effects of Met were reversed by the MC4R antagonist SHU9119 in HF+Met+SHU9119 group.CONCLUSION:Treatment with Met enhances skeletal muscle AMPK/SIRT1 expression and activity,reverses mitochondrial dysfunction,and improves insulin resistance in HF-fed rats.These effects might be mediated through the activation of hypothalamic MC4R.

Objective:To observe the effect of shift work on the stability of the circadian clock and insulin sensitivity in non-overweight/obese individuals with normal blood glucose, and explore underlying connection.Methods:Female shift working nurses in the Department of Blood Transplantation and non-shift working nurses in the Health Management Center in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were divided into shift worker group (SW group) and non-shift worker group (NSW group). Serum inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)], adipokines (adiponectin, leptin, chemerin, visfatin), and melatonin levels were measured using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Realtime fluorescence quantitative PCR was performed to detect peripheral blood circadian clock genes circadian locomotor output cycles protein kaput(Clock) and brain and muscle ARNT-like protein 1(Bmal1). Cortisol and fasting insulin were measured by chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay, and HbA 1C was measured by capillary electrophoresis. In addition, visceral fat area (VFA) was assessed with bioelectrical impedance analyzer, and mid-sleep time composite phase deviations (CPD) was calculated based on the International Physical Activity Short Questionnaire. Results:SW group had lower serum level of melatonin ( P=0.023) and higher cortisol ( P=0.001) than the NSW group, and altered mRNA expression of Clock and Bmal1 ( P=0.034, P=0.047). Fasting blood glucose and HbA 1C in the SW group, although in the normal range, had been higher than in the NSW group ( P=0.011, P=0.033). Although body mass index was normal in SW group, VFA had been higher than that of the NSW group ( P=0.010). And homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), IL-6, TNF-α, leptin, chemerin, and visfatin were significantly higher in the SW group than NSW group ( P=0.033, P=0.012, P=0.001, P=0.011, P=0.021, P=0.007). In addition, adjusting for body mass index and activity factors revealed a significant positive correlation between CPD and VFA ( r=0.434, P=0.049), inflammatory factors IL-6 ( r=0.514, P=0.017) and TNF-α ( r=0.700, P<0.001) and pro-inflammatory adipokines leptin ( r=0.473, P=0.030), chemerin ( r=0.439, P=0.047), visfatin ( r=0.521, P=0.015). Conclusion:Shift work can affect circadian clock, with increased visceral adiposity, pro-inflammatory adipokines, inflammatory factors and decreased insulin sensitivity in women without overweight/obese.

Objective:To investigate the incidence, prevalence and disease characteristics of Crohn′s disease (CD) in Zhangjiagang city.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted. During the period of January 1st to December 31st, 2017, through a voluntary consultation and the medical records retrieval of 5 hospitals in Zhangjiagang city (the First People′s Hospital of Zhangjiagang, Zhangjiagang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Zhangjiagang Aoyang Hospital, Zhangjiagang Jinfeng People′s Hospital and Zhangjiagang Leyu Hospital) , the patients who were the registered residents of Zhangjiagang city and diagnosed as CD were collected and included in the study. The general clinical data and epidemiological data were collected by the questionnaire. The age-standardized prevalence and incidence of CD in Zhangjiagang city in 2017 was calculated. The clinical characteristics were described. The single factor analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the independent influencing factors for delayed diagnosis.Results:A total of 123 CD patients were included and 14 patients were newly diagnosed in 2017. The age-standardized prevalence of CD was 12.08 per 100 000 persons in this city in 2017 and the age-standardized incidence was 1.54 per 100 000 persons. There were 73 male patients and 50 female patients, the ratio of male to female was 1.46∶1. The age at diagnosis was 39 (27, 51) years old. The peak ages of diagnosis were 20 to 29 years old and 40 to 49 years old and there were 27 (21.95%) and 25 (20.33%) patients in the two ages respectively. The duration was 45 (24, 82) months. The disease involved the terminal ileum in 72 patients (58.5%) including 2 (1.6%) in the upper gastrointestinal tract simultaneously, the colon in 28 (22.8%) and the ileocolon in 23 (18.7%) . The non-stricturing non-penetrating type of disease was observed in 71 patients (57.7%) , stricturing type in 42 patients (34.1%) , penetrating type in 10 patients (8.1%) . Twenty-three patients (18.7%) had simultaneous perianal disease. 5-aminosalicylic acid was used in 96 patients (78.0%) and nutritional support therapy was used in 64 patients (52.0%) . Delayed diagnosis occurred in 63 patients (51.2%) , the delayed diagnosis time was 8 (2, 36) months. Multivariate analysis showed that simultaneous perianal disease ( OR = 4.081, 95% CI: 1.159-14.367, P = 0.029) was the independent risk factor of delayed diagnosis, and urban resident ( OR = 0.169, 95% CI: 0.073-0.393, P<0.001) was the independent protection factor. Conclusions:The prevalence and incidence of CD in Zhangjiagang city are relatively high. There are more male CD patients and the distribution of age at diagnosis is bimodal. The terminal ileum is the most common site and non-stricturing non-penetrating type is most common in the city. 5-aminosalicylic acid and nutritional support therapy are the most common treatments. Over a half of the patients present delayed diagnosis. The patients with simultaneous perianal disease have higher risk of delayed diagnosis, while the urban patients have lower risk of delayed diagnosis.

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis and treatment for intra-abdominal fistula in China, and to explore the prognostic factors.Methods:A multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted based on the Registration System of Chinese Gastrointestinal Fistula and Intra-Abdominal Infections to collect the clinical data of patients with intra-abdominal fistula from 18 medical centers from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018, including basic information, medical records and prognosis.Results:A total of 106 patients were enrolled in this study, including 57 males and 49 females, with an average age of (48.0±17.8)years. The most common type of intra-abdominal fistula was entero-vesical fistula (34.0%), followed by entero-vaginal fistula (31.1%), entero-enteric fistula (26.4%) and multiple fistula (8.5%). The direct causes of intra-abdominal fistula were mainly surgical operation (66.0%), followed by spontaneous fistula due to Crohn′s disease (18.9%), radiation intestinal injury (11.3%), and 4 cases (3.8%) of unknown reasons. During the whole treatment, 95 patients received nutritional support therapy, mainly EN+ PN (75.8%). Finally, 86 patients (81.1%) received surgical treatment, with a healing rate of 95.3%. After surgery, 8.1% of patients developed surgical site infections (SSI), and 10.5% had a relapse of fistula. 20 patients (18.9%) were treated conservatively, with a self-healing rate of 80.0%. The overall mortality rate was 8.5%, and the highest mortality (15.2%) was found in entero-enteric fistula. Statistical analysis showed that the age ( t=-4.664, P<0.001), leucocyte level ( U=663.000, P=0.010), sepsis ( P=0.002) and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) ( P=0.019) were higher in the death group than those in the healing group. Multivariate analysis suggested that advanced age ( OR=1.073, 95% CI: 1.008-1.141, P=0.026) and complications of sepsis ( OR=11.806, 95% CI: 1.064-131.048, P=0.044) were independent risk factors of the death for patients with intra-abdominal fistula. Conclusions:The overall mortality rate of intra-abdominal fistula is still high, and malignant tumor is the most common primary disease. Advanced age and sepsis are independent risk factors for death in patients with intra-abdominal fistula.

Objective: To investigate the diagnosis and treatment for enterocutaneous fistula (ECF) in China, and to explore the prognostic factors of ECF. Methods: A multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted based on the Registration System of Chinese Gastrointestinal Fistula and Intra-Abdominal Infections to collect the clinical data of ECF patients from 54 medical centers in 22 provinces/municipalities from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018. The clinical data included patient gender, age, length of hospital stay, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, underlying diseases, primary diseases, direct causes of ECF, location and type of ECF, complications, treatment and outcomes. All medical records were carefully filled in by the attending physicians, and then re-examined by more than two specialists. The diagnosis of ECF was based on the clinical manifestations, laboratory/imaging findings and intraoperative exploration. Results: A total of 1521 patients with ECF were enrolled, including 1099 males and 422 females, with a median age of 55 years. The top three primary diseases of ECF were malignant tumors in 626 cases (41.2%, including 540 gastrointestinal tumors, accounting for 86.3% of malignant tumors), gastrointestinal ulcers and perforations in 202 cases (13.3%), and trauma in 157 cases (10.3%). The direct causes of ECF were mainly surgical operation in 1194 cases (78.5%), followed by trauma in 156 (10.3%), spontaneous fistula due to Crohn′s disease in 92 (6.0%), radiation intestinal injury in 41 (2.7%), severe pancreatitis in 20 (1.3%), endoscopic treatment in 13 (0.9%) and 5 cases (0.3%) of unknown reasons. All the patients were divided into three groups: 1350 cases (88.7%) with simple ECF, 150 (9.9%) with multiple ECF, and 21 (1.4%) with combined internal fistula. Among the patients with simple ECF, 438 cases (28.8%) were jejuno-ileal fistula, 313 (20.6%) colon fistula, 170 (11.2%) rectal fistula, 111 (7.3%) duodenal fistula, 76 (5.0%) ileocecal fistula, 65 (4.3%) ileocolic anastomotic fistula, 55 (3.6%) duodenal stump fistula, 36 (2.4%) gastrointestinal anastomotic fistula, 36 (2.4%) esophagogastric/esophagojejunal anastomotic fistula, 29 (1.9%) gastric fistula and 21 (1.4%) cholangiopancreatiointestinal. Among all the simple ECF patients, 991 were tubular fistula and 359 were labial fistula. A total of 1146 patients finished the treatment, of whom 1061 (92.6%) were healed (586 by surgery and 475 self-healing) and 85 (7.4%) died. A total of 1043 patients (91.0%) received nutritional support therapy, and 77 (6.7%) received fistuloclysis. Infectious source control procedures were applied to 1042 patients, including 711 (62.0%) with active lavage and drainage and 331 (28.9%) with passive drainage. Among them, 841 patients (73.4%) underwent minimally invasive procedures of infectious source control (replacement of drainage tube through sinus tract, puncture drainage, etc.), 201 (17.5%) underwent laparotomy drainage, while 104 (9.1%) did not undergo any drainage measures. A total of 610 patients (53.2%) received definitive operation, 24 patients died within postoperative 30-day with mortality of 3.9% (24/610), 69 (11.3%) developed surgical site infection (SSI), and 24 (3.9%) had a relapse of fistula. The highest cure rate was achieved in ileocecal fistula (100%), followed by rectal fistula (96.2%, 128/133) and duodenal stump fistula (95.7%,44/46). The highest mortality was found in combined internal fistula (3/12) and no death in ileocecal fistula. Univariate prognostic analysis showed that primary diseases as Crohn′s disease (χ²=6.570, P=0.010) and appendicitis/appendiceal abscess (P=0.012), intestinal fistula combining with internal fistula (χ²=5.460, P=0.019), multiple ECF (χ²=7.135, P=0.008), esophagogastric / esophagojejunal anastomotic fistula (χ²=9.501, P=0.002), ECF at ileocecal junction (P=0.012), non-drainage/passive drainage before the diagnosis of intestinal fistula (χ²=9.688, P=0.008), non-drainage/passive drainage after the diagnosis of intestinal fistula (χ²=9.711, P=0.008), complicating with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) (χ²=179.699, P<0.001), sepsis (χ²=211.851, P<0.001), hemorrhage (χ²=85.300, P<0.001), pulmonary infection (χ²=60.096, P<0.001), catheter-associated infection (χ²=10.617, P=0.001) and malnutrition (χ²=21.199, P<0.001) were associated with mortality. Multivariate prognostic analysis cofirmed that sepsis (OR=7.103, 95%CI:3.694-13.657, P<0.001), complicating with MODS (OR=5.018, 95%CI:2.170-11.604, P<0.001), and hemorrhage (OR=4.703, 95%CI: 2.300-9.618, P<0.001) were independent risk factors of the death for ECF patients. Meanwhile, active lavage and drainage after the definite ECF diagnosis was the protective factor (OR=0.223, 95%CI: 0.067-0.745, P=0.015). Conclusions The overall mortality of ECF is still high. Surgical operation is the most common cause of ECF. Complications e.g. sepsis, MODS, hemorrhage, and catheter-associated infection, are the main causes of death. Active lavage and drainage is important to improve the prognosis of ECF.

Purpose To investigate the relationship and clinical significance of high-risk human papillomavirus infection and expression of c-jun and c-fos protein in cervical carcinoma.Methods Cervista HR-HPV testing,immunohistochemical SP method were employed to detect the infection of HR-HPV,c-jun and c-fos protein in 70 cases of CSCC,60 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and 20 cases of chronic cervicitis.The correlation between c-jun and c-fos protein expression and of HR-HPV infection was analyzed.Results Of the 70 cases of CSCC,the positive HR-HPV was 69 cases,the positive rate in HR-HPV in A9 group was the highest (85％,59/69).The positive expression of c-jun and c-fos were 80％ (56/70),85.7％ (60/70) in 70 cases CSCC,70％ (21/30) and 70％ (21/30) in 30 cases of cervical high grade intraepithelial neoplasia,and 20％ (6/30),23.3％ (7/30) in 30 cases cervical low grade intraepithelial neoplasia,but the positive expression rates of c-jun and c-fos in the 20 cases of chronic cervicitis were 0.Expression of c-jun and c-fos in cervical cancer group was higher than that in the chronic cervicitis group and low grade intraepithelial neoplasia (P ＜ 0.05).The expression of c-jun and c-fos was statistically significant in different groups of clinical stage and pathologic grading in the CSCC (P ＜ 0.05).Additionally,the expression of c-jun and c-fos was positively correlated with the infection of HR-HPV in CSCC (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The infection of HR-HPV has significant subtype-specific and has a positive correlation with the expression of c-jun and c-fos in CSCC,which suggests that AP-1 pathway activation after HRHPV infection may be associated with the occurrence and development of cervical carcinoma.
