Oswestry Disability Index (ODI),Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score and Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) Scores were compared between the two groups. Excellent rates of treatment and postoperative complications of two groups were compared at the 6 th month after surgery. Results:The average hospital stay and operation time of observation group were respectively (4.29±1.08)d and (93.53±22.01)min,which were significantly shorter than (6.61±1.72)d and (112.29±26.68)min of control group,and the intraoperative blood loss of observation group was (30.15±8.26) ml,which was shorter than that (41.35±11.58) ml of control group,and the differences of them between two groups (t=8.548,4.059,5.892,P<0.05),respectively. At the 1st week after surgery,the ODI and VAS scores of observation group were lower than those of control group,and the JOA score was higher than that of control group,and the differences of them between two groups were significant (t=9.443,t=8.969,6.084,P<0.05),respectively. At the 3rd month after surgery,the ODI and VAS scores of observation group were respectively lower than those of control group,and JOA score of observation group was higher than that of control group,and the differences of them were significant (t=9.706,3.753,5.894,P<0.05),respectively. The rate of excellent and good treatment of observation group was 94.64%,which was higher than that (80.36%) of control group,and the differences of them between the two groups were statistically significant (t=5.225,P<0.05). At the 1st week after surgery,the vertebral canal area of observation group was larger than that of control group,and the ratio of protrusion invasion was less than that of control group,and the differences of them between the two groups were statistically significant (t=3.404,5.578,P<0.05),respectively. At the 1st d after surgery,the serum LDH,MYO and COR levels of observation group were lower than those of control group,and the differences of them between two groups were statistically significant (t=7.570,9.687,5.242,P<0.05),respectively. At the 3rd d after surgery,the serum LDH,MYO and COR levels of observation group were respectively than those of control group,and the differences of them between two groups were significant (t=6.856,9.729,2.744,P<0.05).

[Abstract ] Objective C reactive protein (CRP), an in-flammatory maker, increased significantly among diabetes mellitus and other metabolic diseases.Meanwhile, adiponectin plays a vital role in anti-atherogenic, anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic poten-tials.Further, it decreased in diabetes mellitus.To investigate the effects of C-reactive protein in the expression of high-molecular-weight adiponectin ( HMWA) and adiponectin multimerization. Methods The fully differentiated 3T3-L1 cells were respectively treated with 50μg/mL CRP for 0 h、6 h、12 h and 24 h , and different doses of CRP with 0μg/mL、5μg/mL、25μg/mL、50μg/mL for 24 h.The expres-sion of HMWA was further detected by Western blot.Additionally,
the mRNA expressions of adiponectin assembly related genes ( Ero1-L、DsbA-L、ERp44 ) were detected by Real time PCR after 50μg/mL CRP treatment for 24 h. Results After 24 h treatment, 25μg/mL CRP and 50μg/mL CRP resulted in a substantial reduction ( [70 ±7]%vs [44 ±7]%, P<0.05) while 5μg/mL CRP revealed no change.With the dose of 50μg/mL CRP treated, the ex-pression of HWMA were both inhibited after the 12 h and 24 h CRP treatment ([71 ±6]%vs [48 ±11]%, P<0.05), but for the 6 h CRP treatment group, HWMA remained unchanged.Additionally, CRP inhibited Ero1-L(86 ±10)%and DsbA-L(72 ±6)%gene expression and upregulated the expression of ERp44(141 ±23)%. Conclusion CRP decreases HMWA expression in a dose and time-dependent manner and inhibits the multimerization of adiponectin, thus weaken the benefits of adiponectin in diabetes.

Objective To detect serum oxytocin and highly sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in obese and type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) subjects and investigate the relationships between serum oxytocin levels and hs-CRP, glycolipid metabolism, insulin resistance and pancreas β cell function. Methods A total of 176 subjects were enrolled in the study, including 88 patients with newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes ( T2DM) and 88 subjects with normal glucose tolerance(NGT). NGT and T2DM groups were further divided each into normal weight (NW) and obese(OB) subgroups. Obesity was defined as body mass index(BMI)≥25 kg/ m2 according to the WHO-Western Pacific Region diagnostic criteria (2000). 75g oral glucose tolerance test ( OGTT) was performed in all subjects. Fasting plasma glucose ( FPG), 2 h postprandial plasma glucose (2hPG), fasting insulin ( FINS), 2h postprandial serum insulin(2hINS), HbA1C and lipids were also determined. Insulin resistance and pancreas β-cell function were determined by homeostasis model assessment ( HOMA-IR, HOMA-β). Highly sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) level was determined by chemiluminescence immunoassay and fasting serum oxytocin level was determined by ELISA. Results Serum oxytocin level was lower in T2DM group than that in NGT group(P<0. 01), while serum hs-CRP level was higher in T2DM group than that in NGT group(P<0. 01). The level of serum oxytocin in subjects with obesity was also lower than that in subjects with NW in both NGT and T2DM groups [7. 16(6. 45-8. 82) vs 7. 98(7. 03-9. 17) ng/ L and 9. 23(8. 16-10. 36) vs 9. 86(8. 77-12. 06) ng/ L, P<0. 05]. The level of serum hs-CRP in subjects with obesity was higher than that in subjects with NW in both NGT and T2DM groups [0. 99(0. 25-1. 97) vs 0. 54(0. 19-0. 91) mg/ L and 3. 47(1. 63-6. 20) vs 1. 65(0. 81-3. 81) mg/ L, P<0. 05]. Serum oxytocin level was negatively correlated with hs-CRP, BMI, WC, WHR, HbA1C , FPG, 2hPG, FINS, 2hINS, total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-C and HOMA-IR, while was positively correlated with HOMA-β(P<0. 05). Subjects within the upper serum hs-CRP tertile had lower level of oxytocin when compared to subjects in the middle or lower serum hs-CRP tertiles(P<0. 05 ). Conclusion Serum oxytocin level was decreased in subjects with type 2 diabetes as well as with obesity. Serum oxytocin level was closely correlated with inflammation, glycolipid metabolism, insulin resistance, and pancreas β cell function. It may play an important role in the pathogenesis of obesity and T2DM.
