ObjectiveTo investigate the incidence of stroke in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the community of Shanghai, and to explore its influencing factors. MethodsA two-way cohort study was used to observe the incidence of stroke in a dynamic cohort of14 743 community-based T2DM patients who were enrolled for management from January 2016 to December 2018 in Hongkou District, Shanghai. All the research subjects were followed up for 3 years to observe the stroke occurrence. Outcome events were retrospectively collected from the Shanghai Stroke and Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry Reporting Information System and the Cause of Death Registry System, and information on stroke onset and verification of past medical history were collected by family physicians through clinic follow-up, home follow-up, and telephone follow-up. Cox proportional hazards model was used to identify the risk factors of stroke in TDM2 patients, and the hazard ratio (HR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. ResultsAfter a mean follow up of 3.5 years, the standardized incidence of stroke in patients with T2DM was 8.65‰, and the risk of standardized incidence was 3.50 (95%CI: 3.26‒3.77) compared with that of the total national population. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that age (HR=1.18, 95%CI: 1.13‒1.23), being female (HR=1.14, 95%CI: 1.01‒1.29), physical activity <600 metabolic equivalent (MET)·min·week^-1 (HR=1.24, 95%CI: 1.06‒1.44), substandard of HbA1c control (HR=1.16, 95%CI: 1.03‒1.30), occasional smoker(HR=1.23, 95%CI: 1.04‒1.45), and those who took insulin therapy (HR=1.36, 95%CI: 1.11‒1.66) were associated with an increased risk of stroke, while those received contracted services from family doctors were associated with a decreased risk of stroke(HR=0.78, 95%CI: 0.71‒0.88). ConclusionCommunity T2DM population in Shanghai has a high risk of stroke. It is necessary to continue to explore the positive role of family doctor contract service management model, strengthen individualized exercise, smoking cessation and other lifestyle interventions, and strictly control blood glucose as soon as one can to delay or avoid the occurrence of complications.

Objective:To explore the spatial support capacity and its influence in osteogenic effect of composite biofilm based on poly(propylene carbonate)(PPC)/poly(butylene succinate)(PBS)in rabbit tibial bone defect models,and to clarify its barrier functional reliability and osteogenetic effect in vivo.Methods:The composite biofilms of PPC/PBS and PPC/PBS/collegen type Ⅰ(Col-Ⅰ)(PPC/PBS/Co)were prepared.Eighteen Japanese big-ear rabbits were selected and two bone defects were prepared on each side of the tibia of the rabbits.Six rabbits were randomly selected to place PPC/PBS composite biofilm on the bone defects,2 rabbits were executed at 2,4,8 and 12 weeks after operation,and the surface microstructures of PPC/PBS composite biofilm in the rabhit bone defect area were observed by scanning electron microscope(SEM).The experiment was divided into blank control group,PPC/PBS composite biofilm group,BME-10X collagen membrane group,and PPC/PBS/Co composite biofilm group.The above biofilms were placed on the corresponding bone defects of rabbits by operation,while no biofilm was placed in the rabbits in blank control group.Three rabbits were killed at 2,4,8 and 12 weeks after operation respectively,and the gray values of regenerated bone in the bone defect areas of the rabbits in varrous groups were detected by soft X-ray;the fluorescence intensities of regenerated bone tissue in the bone defect areas of the rabbits in various groups were observed by laser scanning confocal microscope after fluorescence labeling.The pathomorphology of regenerated bone tissue in the bone defect areas of the rabbits in various groups were observed by HE staining and modified Gomori staining,and the expression levels of bone morphogenetic protein 2(BMP-2)and osteopontin(OPN)in the regenerated bone tissue in bone defect areas of the rabbits in various groups were detected by immunohistochemical staining.Results:In general,the PPC/PBS composite biofilm was tightly covered in the bone defect area without displacement and collapse.The SEM results showed that the porous surface of PPC/PBS composite biofilm appeared micropore structure and the number of micropores was increased with the prolongation of time,while the smooth surface of biofilm basically did not form the micropore-like structure.The results of soft X-ray detection showed that the gray values of regenerated bone tissue in bone defect areas of the rabbits in various groups were increased with the prolongation of time,and the gray value of regenerated bone tissue in bone defect areas of the rabbits in PPC/PBS/Co composite biofilm group was significantly higher than those in other groups(P＜0.05).The confocal micrscope results showed that the fluorescence intensity of regenerated bone tissue in bone defect areas of the rabbits in PPC/PBS/Co composite biofilm group was similar to those in blank control group at 4,8,and 12 weeks;compared with PPC/PBS composite biofilm group and BME-10X collagen membrane group,the fluoresence intensity of regenerated bone tissue in bone defect areas of the rabbits in PPC/PB/Co composite biofilm group at 4 weeks was increased(P＜0.05),and the fluoresence intensity of regenerated bone tissue in bone defect areas of the rabbits at 8 and 12 weeks were decreased(P＜0.05).The results of HE staining and modified Gomori staining showed that compared with PPC/PBS composite biofilm group and BME-10X collagen membrane group,the new bone formed faster in PPC/PBS/Co composite biofilm group and blank control group at 2 and 4 weeks,and the lamellar bone mineralization was higher at 12 weeks.The immunohistochemical staining results showed that compared with blank control group,PPC/PBS composite biofilm group and BME-10X collagen membrane group,the expression levels of BMP-2 and OPN proteins in the regenerated bone tissue in bone defect areas of the rabbits in PPC/PBS/Co composite biofilm group at 2 and 4 weeks were increased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01);compared with blank control group and PPC/PBS composite biofilm group,the expression levels of BMP-2 and OPN proteins in the regenerated bone tissue in bone defect areas of the rabbits in BME-10X collage membrane group were decreased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion:PPC/PBS composite biofilm has excellent spatial support capacity and reliable physical barrier function.The PPC/PBS/Co composite biofilm has a good effect in guiding bone regeneration in vivo.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate the effects of rabepr azole on the pharmacokinetic characteristics of clopidogrel and its active metabolite in healthy volunteers with different CYP2C19 genotypes. METHODS ：Healthy volunteers were selected as subjects，and then randomly divided into extensive metabolizer （EM）group，intermediate metabolizer （IM）group，and poor metabolizer（PM）group with 8 subjects in each group ，according to their CYP2C19 genotypes by random number table. In single-dose，randomized，open，two-cycle-crossover design ，each group was given Clopidogrel bisulfate tablets 300 mg or Clopidogrel bisulfate tablets 300 mg+Rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated tablets 20 mg. UPLC-MS/MS method was adopted to detect the concentration of clopidogrel and its active metabolite derivative （MP-H4）. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated and compared by DAS 2.0 software. RESULTS ：There was no statistical significance in clinical data as age ，height， body weight ，liver enzymes and serum creatinine among 3 kinds of metabolism subjects （P＞0.05）. Compared with subjects receiving clopidogrel alone ，cmax and AUC 0－t of clopidogrel of subjects combined with rabeprazole in EM group were increased by 36％ and 27％，while those of MP-H 4 were decreased by 34％ and 28％（P＜0.01）；cmax and AUC 0－t of clopidogrel of subjects combined with rabeprazole in IM group were increased by 19％ and 18％，while those of MP-H 4 were decreased by 19％ and 16％ （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）；there was no statistical significance in cmax and AUC 0－t of clopidogrel and MP-H 4 in PM group after receiving rabeprazole additionally as well as tmax of clopidogrel and MP-H 4 in all metablism subjects ，compared with clopidogrel alone（P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：Among CYP2C19 EM and IM subjects ，combined use of rabeprazole can significantly increase the exposure of clopidogrel and decrease the exposure of its active metabolite MP-H 4，but has no significant impact on clopidogrel and its active metabolite in CYP2C19 PM subjects.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided percutaneous translumial septal myocardial ablation in dogs using laser and radiofrequency.Methods:Twelve healthy adult Beagle dogs (males or females) were randomly divided into two groups, namely, group laser and group radiofrequency (6 dogs each group). Under ultrasound guidance, laser fiber or radiofrequency ablation needle was respectively inserted into the basal and middle segments of the interventricular septa via the percutaneous transapical approach to perform ablation. The Beagle dogs received radiologic examination, laboratory tests and pathological detection before ablation, immediately after ablation, at 1 week after ablation, and at 1 month after ablation, respectively. The efficacy and safety of the two ablation procedures were compared.Results:All dogs survived after ablation. The peak gradient of LVOT decreased immediately after ablation using either laser or radiofrequency ( P<0.05), but it increased at 1 week after ablation than before ( P<0.05). At 1 month after ablation, no significant differences were found in the peak gradient of LVOT compared with that before surgery ( P<0.05). The interventricular septum thickness was increased immediately after ablation using either laser or radiofrequency than before ( P<0.05), but it decreased at 1 week and at 1 month after surgery than before ( P<0.05). The ablation zone using radiofrequency was slightly larger than that of using laser[(372.50±69.06)mm 3 vs (116.65±20.15)mm 3, P<0.001], and the surgical time of the former was significantly shorter than that of using laser [(56.00±3.22)s vs (260.00±65.39)s, P<0.05)]. Conclusions:Ultrasound-guided percutaneous translumial septal myocardial ablation is feasible, safe and effective using either laser or radiofrequency. Comparatively speaking, radiofrequency ablation is more simple and convenient.

Objective:To prepare ultrasound-responsive nanodroplets with block polymer PEG-PCL as shell and perfluoropentane (PFP) as core, and study the effects of mechanical index (MI) on contrast-enhanced imaging properties of nanodroplet.Methods:PEG-PCL micelles were first prepared by dialysis, and then the micelles were mixed with PFP for emulsification to obtain nanodroplets. The particle size and zeta potential of nanodroplets were measured, and the morphology of nanodroplets were observed using transmission electron microscope (TEM). The stability of nanodroplets after storage at 25 ℃ and 37 ℃ was investigated. The phase transition and contrast-enhanced imaging of nanodroplets in vitro under a series of mechanical index (MI) were studied using an ultrasound diagnostic instrument.Results:The particle size of the nanodroplets was (356.6±5.6)nm, and the zeta potential was -(7.30±0.14)mV. The nanodroplets were close to spherical under TEM and had a clear core-shell structure. The particle size and dispersion of the nanodroplets increased after storage at 37 ℃ and 25 ℃. For imaging in vitro, no acoustic signal were observed at 25 ℃ when the MI varied from 0.08 to 1.0. At 37 ℃, acoustic signals were observed when MI≥0.4, and the intensity was stronger for higher MIs.Conclusions:The contrast-enhanced imaging of nanodroplets are closely related to the MI, and a higher MI could induce the phase transition of more nanodroplets and produce stronger contrast enhancement. This study could provide basis for the application of polymeric nanodroplets in ultrasound diagnosis and targeted therapy.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of phalangeal fractures with self-made mini external fixator. Methods From June, 2014 to June, 2017, 16 cases of phalangeal fracture were treated with self-made mini external fixator. In the followed-up periods, the regulating rechecks of X-ray and measurement of interpha-langeal joint activity were determined. The total active movement (TAM), numerical pain ranting scale (NPRS) and morning stiffness was used to estimate the fracture healing and the hand function recovery. Results Pain and ab-normal movement around fracture was found 6 weeks after the operation in 1 case, which had been healed by re-moving the external fixation, open reduction and internal fixation with kirschner wire. The other 15 cases were fol-lowed-up of 48-72 (average, 58) weeks. The fracture has healed. And there was no osteomyelitis, no breakage and loosening of steel needles. The clinical healing time of the fracture was 14 to 16 weeks, with an average of 15.5 weeks. According to the TAM, NPRS and morning stiffness, there was excellent in 11 cases, and good in 4 cases. Conclusion The self-made mini external fixator can maintain the stability after fracture reduction, provide the tension required for the healing of collateral ligament and joint capsule, and meet the need of early functional exer-cise. It is an ideal treatment option for phalangeal fractures.

Objective To evaluate the radioprotective effects of metformin on radiation-induced pulmonary injury in rats. Method A total of 30 Sprague-Dawley ( SD) rats were randomly divided into three groups:control, radiation (20 Gy) and radiation (20 Gy) with metformin, with 10 rats in each group. The right lungs of rats were irradiated to 20 Gy with 6 MV X-rays. Computed tomography (CT) was performed and Hounsfield Units ( HU) were determined during the observation period. The tissue samples of lung were extracted to perform the histological analysis, measurement of hydroxyproline content, fibrosis score and evaluation of fibrosis/inflammatory markers by Western blot at 12 weeks post-irradiation. CCK-8 method was used to explore the effects of metformin on non-small cell lung cancer( NSCLC) cells A549 and H460. Results Metformin reduced radiologic and histologic signs of fibrosis, lung density(6. 52 ± 0. 43 vs. 3. 31 ± 0. 57, t=6. 37, P<0. 01) and hydroxyproline content(32. 58 ± 1. 59 vs. 23. 47 ± 2. 46,t=12. 72, P<0. 01) which had been increased due to irradiation. Meanwhile, it significantly decreased the expressions of Col1, p-AMPKα and TGF-β, while inhibited the expressions of p-Smad2 and p-Smad3 compared to the irradiation alone group. Moreover, metformin reduced A549 and H460 cells growth. Conclusions Metformin exerted a protective effect on normal tissues in radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Thus, it might act as a promising radioprotective agent in the treatment of lung cancer.
