Based on the etiology and clinical diagnostic criteria of type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM）， identification and typing of treatment from the perspective of traditional Chinese and western medicine， the criteria for evaluating the clinical compatibility of traditional Chinese and western medicine in animal models of T2DM were set up. The literature was reviewed to sort out and analyze the existing commonly used modeling methods， summarize the mechanism， compare the advantages and disadvantages， and calculate the consistency between the animal model and the clinical symptoms， syndromes， and indicators from the perspective of traditional Chinese and western medicine. The authors found that spontaneous animal models and high-fat diets combined with multiple low-dose streptozotocin （STZ） induction models were more in line with modern medical pathogenesis of T2DM. However， it fails to form some special syndromes required for traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） research. In addition， there are many methods of combining the etiology and pathogenesis of TCM， which can be divided into three categories： intervention carried out by drug administration， behavioral stimulation， or environmental changes according to TCM， or use of hormones according to clinical evidence and combination of the two methods mentioned above. All of them can successfully establish different types of animal models. However， different methods of establishing syndrome models have their own advantages and disadvantages， and there is no unified standard for the stability and evaluation of syndrome models. As for the clinical consistency criteria of traditional Chinese and western medicine established in this paper， the animal model with 100% consistency has not been calculated due to the conditions of incomplete symptoms and syndromes described in the studies and different selection indicators. Consequently， the establishment of a simple， easy-to-use， and affordable T2DM animal model with both traditional Chinese and western medicine disease characteristics and the improvement of the Chinese and western medicine evaluation system for different evidence types are of great significance for the future development of TCM research on T2DM.

Objective To explore the clinical value of the level of granzyme B and perforin mRNA in urine for the diagnosis of renal transplantation patients with delayed graft function (DGF). Methods Twenty-four cases of renal transplantation patients with DGF were included in this study. Seventy-three u-rine specimens were obtained from these patients who received graft biopsies. Among the 24 cases, ureteral obstruction occurred in 2 cases, vascular thrombosis in 1 case, acute CsA intoxication in 3 cases, acute tubu-lar necrosis (ATN) in 7 cases, ATN complicating borderline change in 2 cases, ATN complicating acute re-jection (AR) in 3 cases, AR in 6 cases. Total RNA was isolated from the urinary cells. Messenger RNA (mRNA) encoding the cytotoxic proteins perforin and granzyme B gene were measured with the quantitative polymerase-chain-reaction assay-(RT-PCR). SPSS13.0 software was used for data analysis. Levels of mRNA were log-transformed before analysis. Results The levels of perforin and granzyme B mRNA in u-rine among the ureteral obstruction group, vascular thrombosis group, acute CsA intoxication group and ATN group were very low. There was no significant difference among these groups (P>0.05). However,among the ATN complicating borderline change group 1.22, 0. 97 fg/μg, ATN complicating AR group (1.20±0.39), (1.07±0.30)fg/μg, and AR group(11.13±0. 33), (1.01±0.19)fg/μg, the levels were increased significantly(P<0.001). Conclusion Measurement of mRNA encoding the cytotoxic proteins perforin and granzyme B gene in urinary cells in renal transplantation patients with DGF could be helpful to etiological diagnosis of DGF, and might be used as an index for the appropriate management of the borderline change.
