Objective:To evaluate the relationship between the blood uric acid/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (UHR) and diabetes retinopathy (DR) in diabetic and pre-diabetic population.Methods:A cross-sectional study. The data from a health survey from 2010 to 2011 on chronic diseases and risk factors in Changping District in Beijing was used in this study. Total of 2 507 pre-diabetic and diabetic patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were screened out in this study, included 1 212 men and 1 295 women. The patients were divided into DR group and non-DR (NDR) group according to whether DR was present or not. Independent sample t-test, chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression were used for case-control study to investigate whether there was independent correlation between UHR and DR. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the diagnostic value of UHR for DR. Results:There were gender differences in the relationship between uric acid related indicators and DR, no significant correlation was found in women. In males, the age, duration of diabetes,fasting blood glucose (FPG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA 1c), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), triglyceride (TG), serum uric acid, UHR levels and the proportion of diabetes and hypertension history in DR group were all significantly higher than those in NDR group (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that SUR ( OR=1.054, 95%CI: 1.004-1.106, P=0.033) and UHR ( OR=1.391, 95%CI: 1.061-1.823, P=0.017) were the relative risk factors of DR. After adjusting for age, registered residence, education level, smoking, drinking, physical exercise, waist circumference, hypertension history, SBP, DBP, total cholesterol and other risk factors, UHR was still associated to DR [ OR ( 95%CI): 1.438 (1.084-1.908), P=0.012]. The area under the ROC curve of UHR was 0.610 ( 95%CI: 0.514-0.707, P=0.030). When the cut-off value of UHR for predicting DR was 0.24, the sensitivity and specificity were the highest, which was 78.8% and 58.7%, respectively. Conclusion:UHR is significantly correlated with the risk of DR in men with pre-diabetes and diabetes, but not in women. The risk of DR increases with the elevated level of UHR. UHR is helpful to diagnose DR and screen people with DR risk.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of increasing efficacy and decreasing toxicity of Limax extract (LE)on cyclophosphamide(CTX)in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. METHODS :The mice were randomly divided into normal group,model group ,CTX group (0.02 g/kg),LE low-dose ,medium-dose and high-dose groups (LEL,LEM,LEH group ,0.6,1.2,2.4 g/kg),CTX+LE low-dose ,medium-dose and high-dose combination groups (CTX+LEL,CTX+LEM,CTX+ LEH group ,the same dose as single drug group ),with 10 huangrenbin518@163.com mice in each group. Except for normal group ,other groups were inoculated with hepatoma cells H 22 in the left ar mpit to establish tumor bearing models. After 24 h of inoculation ,normal group and model group were intragastrically given normal saline , and administration groups were intragastrically given corresponding drugs ,once a day ,for 10 days. On the second day after the last administration ,the general conditions of mice in each group were observed ;the body mass ,thymus index (LI),spleen index (SI)were measured ;the tumor inhibition rate was detected. The effect (q)of combination therapy was evaluated by King ’s formula . The counts of WBC ,RBC and PLT ,serum contents of ALT ,ALT,Scr and BUN were detected in model group ,CTX group and combination groups ,and the contents of MDA,SOD and GSH ,the levels of VEGF ,TNF-α and IL-6 in the tumor tissue were detected by colorimetry and ELISA in above groups. The protein expression of oncogenes (p53,Bcl-2 and Bax )were detected by immunohistochemical method in model group,CTX group and CTX+LEM group. RESULTS :The mice in the model group were in poor spirit and had symptoms of excessive drinking and eating ;although the body weight ,TI and SI were not significantly abnormal compared with normal group (P>0.05),WBC count and AST content were significantly increased ,ALT and BUN contents were significantly decreased (P< 0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with model group ,above symptoms of mice were all improved in administration groups. The tumor weight of administration groups ,TI and SI of CTX group and TI of combination groups were decreased significantly ,but tumor weight of LEL group and LEH group ,TI and SI of LE single groups and combination groups were significantly higher than CTX group;tumor weight of combination groups were significantly lower than CTX group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The tumor inhibition rates of administration groups were 29.58%-72.08%. The q values of CTX+LEL group ,CTX+LEM group and CTX+LEH group were 1.03,0.97 and 0.86,respectively. Compared with model group ,WBC count ,AST and BUN contents of CTX group ,MDA contents of combination groups ,VEGF,TNF-α and IL-6 levels of administration groups ,the protein expression of Bcl- 2 in CTX group and CTX+LEM group were decreased significantly ;the activities of SOD and GSH of administration groups ,the protein expression of p 53 in CTX+LEM group and Bax in CTX group ,CTX+LEM group were increased significantly (P<0.05 or P< 0.01);WBC counts and AST contents of administration groups ,ALT content of CTX+LEM group ,SOD activity of CTX+LEH group and GSH activity of CTX+LEM group were all significantly higher than those of CTX group ;MDA content of CTX+LEH group,VEGF and TNF-α levels of CTX+LEM group and CTX+LEH group,IL-6 levels of administration groups were all significantly lower than CTX group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS :LE combined with CTX can increase the anti-tumor effect,and LE can reduce the toxicity of CTX induced immunosuppression and bone marrow suppression in mice ,with effect of increasing efficacy and decreasing toxicity. The effect may be related to antioxidant stress ,inhibition of angiogenesis and secretion of inflammatory factors ,and regulation of apoptosis protein expression.
4.Beverages consumption, sleep quality and depressive symptoms in Chinese university students: a latent variable mediation model
Chinese Journal of School Health 2020;41(1):16-20
Objective:
This study aimed to examine the mediating effects of sleep quality in the association between beverages consumption and depressive symptoms in Chinese university students, and to provide a theoretical reference for preventing and reducing depression symptoms.
Methods:
This school-based cross-sectional survey was carried out among 4 624 university students from 2 universities in Anhui and Jiangxi provinces of China. The patient health questionnaire-9 items (PHQ-9) was used to assess depressive symptoms. The Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI) was used to assess sleep quality, and a self-reported dietary frequency questionnaire was used to measure beverages consumption. The quantile regression model was used to association analysis, and the latent variable mediation model was used to analyze the mediation effect.
Results:
The positive rates of mild, moderate, moderate to severe and severe depression in 4 624 university students were 31.4%, 7.5%, 4.1% and 2.0%, respectively. There was a significant association between the beverages consumption score, the PSQI score, and the PHQ-9 score( P <0.01). The higher the quantile of the beverage consumption and PSQI score, the greater the regression coefficient ( β ), and a significant dose-response relationship was observed( P <0.01). In the latent variable mediation model of beverages consumption associated with depressive symptoms in Chinese university students, the mediating effect value of sleep quality was 0.12, and the ratio of mediating effect to total effect was 71.3%.
Conclusion
Our study demonstrates that poor sleep quality partially mediates the association between beverages consumption and depressive symptoms in Chinese university students.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of Changsulin ? with Lantus ? in treating patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods:This was a phase Ⅲ, multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group, active-controlled clinical trial. A total of 578 participants with T2DM inadequately controlled on oral hypoglycemic agents were randomized 3∶1 to Changsulin ? or Lantus ? treatment for 24 weeks. The efficacy measures included changes in glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2h postprandial plasma glucose (2hPG), 8-point self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) profiles from baseline, and proportions of subjects achieving targets of HbA1c and FPG. The safety outcomes included rates of hypoglycemia, adverse events (AEs) and anti-insulin glargine antibody. Results:After 24 weeks of treatment, mean HbAlc decreased 1.16% and 1.25%, FPG decreased 3.05 mmol/L and 2.90 mmol/L, 2hPG decreased 2.49 mmol/L and 2.38 mmol/L in Changsulin ? and in Lantus ?, respectively. No significant differences could be viewed in above parameters between the two groups (all P>0.05). There were also no significant differences between Changsulin ? and Lantus ? in 8-point SMBG profiles from baseline and proportions of subjects achieving the targets of HbA1c and FPG (all P>0.05). The rates of total hypoglycemia (38.00% and 39.01% for Changsulin ? and Lantus ?, respectively) and nocturnal hypoglycemia (17.25% and 16.31% for Changsulin ? and Lantus ?, respectively) were similar between the two groups (all P>0.05). Most of the hypoglycemia events were asymptomatic, and no severe hypoglycemia were found in both groups. No differences were observed in rates of AEs (61.77% vs.52.48%) and anti-insulin glargine antibody (after 24 weeks of treatment, 6.91% vs.3.65%) between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Changsulin ? shows similar efficacy and safety profiles compared with Lantus ? and Changsulin ? treatment was well tolerated in patients with T2DM.

Objective:
To investigate the correlation of lifestyle with obesity among migrant children in Shanghai and to provide reference for preventing and controlling obesity of the migrant children.
Methods:
Stratified cluster sampling was adopted to conduct a routine physical examination and investigate lifestyle among 3 894 students (7-13 years old) in June 2018. Association of lifestyle with obesity was analyzed. Chi-square test was used to compare differences in obesity prevalence among migrant children with different lifestyles. Logistic regression was used to explore association with lifestyle and obesity.
Results:
Chi-square test showed that obesity rate in males (18.6%) was significantly higher than that of females(10.7%)(χ2=24.79, P<0.01). Sleep duration, screen time, exercise frequency correlated with obesity(χ2=35.13, 9.29, 7.98, P<0.05). Regression results illustrated that insufficient sleep duration associated higher risk of obesity, the odds ratio for obesity was (OR=2.61, 95%CI=1.64-4.11) and (OR=1.54, 95%CI=1.27-1.86) among children with sleep duration less than 6 h/d and 6-8 h/d, compared with children with more than 8 h/d sleep time, after multiple covariates controlled.
Conclusion
Sleep deprivation positively associated with obesity, ensuring adequate sleep time might help prevent obesity among migrant children.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of domestic exenatide injection versus imported exenatide injection in type 2 diabetic patients with inadequate glycemic control on monotherapy or combination therapy of metformin and insulin secretagogues. Methods A multicenter, randomized, parallel-controlled, and non-inferiority trial was carried out. A total of 240 subjects were randomized at a 1:1 ratio to add domestic exenatide injection (trial group) or imported exenatide injection (control group) on the background therapies. The primary endpoint of efficacy was HbA1C change from baseline to week 16. The secondary endpoints of efficacy were the proportion of HbA1C<7.0%, and the changes in fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2 h plasma glucose after standard meal (2hPG), 7-point self monitoring of blood glucose (7P-SMBG), and body weight from baseline to week 16. Results Among subjects of per-protocol sets, adjusted mean HbA1C reduction was -1.07% in the trial group versus -1.06% in the control group after 16 weeks of treatment. The lower boundary of the two-sided 95% confidence intervals of the mean HbA1C reduction difference between the trial and control groups was -0.29%, which was more than -0.35%, suggesting that the predefined statistical criterion for non-inferiority was achieved. The proportions of subjects achieving HbA1C<7.0% at the end of the 16-week treatment were 56.19% and 54.08% in the trial and control groups, respectively (P>0.05). The changes in FPG, 2hPG, 7P-SMBG and body weight from baseline to week 16 were comparable between the two groups (all P>0.05). Moreover, the incidences of hypoglycemia and adverse events were similar between the two groups (both P>0.05). Conclusion In type 2 diabetic patients inadequately controlled by monotherapy or combination therapy of metformin and insulin secretagogues, the efficacy of cotreatment with domestic exenatide injection is not inferior to that of imported product ones, with a similar safety profile.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in a Beijing population during routine medical examinations. Methods This was a cross-sectional study during a routine health examination at the Tongren Hospital of Beijing,from March 2014 to February 2015. Fundus photography was conducted by experienced ophthalmologists.Medical history,height,weight,waist and hip circumference,and blood pressure were recorded.Routine laboratory examinations were performed. Logistic regression models were used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of diabetic retinopathy for each risk factor,adjusted for age and gender. Results The prevalence of DR was 7.0% among diabetic individuals.The multivariate analysis showed that disease durations[OR(95% CI),2.1 (1.564-2.752),P<0.001],fasting plasma glucose[1.2(1.093-1.273),P<0.001],body mass index[1.8(1.010-3.100),P=0.046],and triglyceride[0.794(0.638-0.987),P=0.038]were independently associated with DR. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) and DR significantly increased in populations aged>30 years. Conclusion Fundus photography (nonmydriatic) should be recommended as a routine screening method for people 30 years and elder to effectively prevent occurrence of visual impairment and blindness.
