Objective To explore the relationship between serum chitosinase 3-like protein 1(CHI3L1)and Syndecan-1(SDC1)levels and bone metabolism in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and their predictive efficacy on osteoporosis.Methods A total of 412 elderly patients with type 2 diabetes admitted to this hospital from May 2019 to May 2023 were included in this study,and were divided into normal bone mass group(n=151),reduced bone mass group(n=138)and osteoporosis group(n=123)according to the iffer-ences in bone mineral density.Serum CHI3L1 and SDC1 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosor-bent assay,and serum levels of type 1 collagen cross-linked carboxyl terminal peptide(CTX),25-hydroxyvita-min D[25-(OH)D],osteocalcin(OC),and type 1 procollagen N-terminal propeptide(P1NP)were deter-mined by automatic chemiluminescence immunoassay.Pearson correlation analysis was used to investigate the relationship between serum CHI3L1,SDC1 and bone metabolism in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.Re-ceiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of serum CHI3L1 and SDC1 on osteoporosis in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors of osteoporosis in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.Results There were significant differences in diabetes course,fasting blood glucose,HbA1c and HDL-C a-mong normal bone mass group,decreased bone mass group and osteoporosis group(P＜0.05).The levels of serum CHI3L1,25-(OH)D,P1NP and osteocalcin in osteoporosis group were lower than those in osteopenia group,and those in osteopenia group were lower than those in normal bone mass group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Serum SDC1 and CTX levels in osteoporosis group were higher than those in osteopenia group,and those in osteopenia group were higher than those in normal bone mass group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Serum CHI3L1 was positively correlated with 25-(OH)D,P1NP and OC(P＜0.05),and negatively correlated with CTX(P＜0.05).Serum SDC1 was negatively correlated with 25-(OH)D,P1NP,OC(P＜0.05),and positively correlated with CTX(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of serum CHI3L1,SDC1 and their combination predicted osteoporosis in elderly pa-tients with type 2 diabetes were 0.851,0.772 and 0.904,respectively.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that long duration of diabetes,increased HbA1c,high expression of OC,CHI3L1＞4.16 ng/mL,SDC1≥50.94 ng/mL were all influential factors for osteoporosis in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes(P＜0.05).Conclusion Low expression of CHI3L1 and high expression of SDC1 in serum are associated with ab-normal bone metabolism in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.These two indexes are expected to be used as biological markers to predict osteoporosis in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.

【Objective】 To investigate the matrix effect on the determination of potency in Recombinant Human Coagulation Factor Ⅷ for Injection (rFⅧ). 【Methods】 Two different detection matrices were used to establish two methods for detecting the potency in Recombinant Human Coagulation Factor Ⅷ for Injection. And the matrix effect on the determination of potency was determined, including specificity, linearity, repeatability, accuracy and intermediate precision. 【Results】 As to the specificity, the recoveries of the two substrates at high vs low concentration level were 112% and 110% vs 104% and 109%, respectively. As to the linearity, in the range of (0.125-1.000) IU/mL, the correlation coefficient between concentration and coagulation time of standard/ sample was higher than 0.99. As to the accuracy/repeatability, the recoveries of two matrices was 104% and 102%, and RSD was 2.4% and 1.9%. As to the intermediate precision, personnel factor of two matrices was 0.72 and 0.23, date factor was 0.79 and 0.85, and RSD(for 12 times) was 4.2% and 3.0%. Comparison of two matrices was as follows: Deviation in test results of 6 batches of rFⅧ was all lower than 5%. There was no significant difference between two matrices. 【Conclusion】 The two matrices for potency detection show good performance including specificity, linearity, repeatability, accuracy, and intermediate precision. They are suitable for the determination of potency in rFⅧ products.
