ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effects of continuous substaneous insulin infusion (CSII) on islet β cell function in newly diagnosed diabetic patients.Methods:Forty-six newly diagnosed diabetic patients who received treatment in Taishan People's Hospital from July 2011 to June 2014 were included in this study. They were treated with CSII for 14 days and followed up for 5 years. Before and after treatment, fasting blood glucose (FPG), 2-h postprandial blood glucose (2hPG), triglyceride (TG), fasting insulin (FINS), 2-h postprandial insulin (2hINS), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and the Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) index, Homeostasis Model Assessment for beta-cell function (HOMA-β) index were compared between before treatment and 5 years after treatment.Results:Five years after treatment, the levels of FPG, 2hPG, TG, HbA1c, MDA and HOMA-IR were lower than those before treatment [FPG: (11.3 ± 1.2) mmol/L vs. (5.9 ± 0.4) mmol/L, t = 15.35, P < 0.01; 2hPG: (18.1 ± 4.2) mmol/L vs. (8.1 ± 1.6) mmol/L, t = 16.83, P < 0.01; TG: (2.9 ± 1.1) mmol/L vs. (1.5 ± 0.6) mmol/L, t = 9.81, P < 0.01; HbA1c: (11.2 ± 2.5)% vs. (5.6 ± 1.0)%, t = 11.48, P < 0.01; MDA: (4.6 ± 1.2) μmol/L vs. (2.7 ± 0.9) μmmol/L, t = 16.37, P < 0.01; HOMA-IR: (2.81 ± 0.35) vs. (1.87 ± 0.32), t = 9.37, P < 0.01]. Five years after treatment, the levels of FINS, 2hINS, SOD and HOMA-β were significantly higher than those before treatment [FINS: (5.6 ± 1.3) mU/L vs. (7.4 ± 1.5) mU/L, t = - 6.15, P < 0.01; 2hINS: (15.8 ± 7.5) mU/L vs. (25.8 ± 9.1) mU/L, t = - 5.65, P < 0.01; SOD: (28.9 ± 7.6) U/L vs. (39.6 ± 7.8) U/L, t = - 7.93, P < 0.01; HOMA-β: (14.36 ± 3.82) vs. (65.67 ± 6.67), t = - 18.72, P < 0.01]. Linear regression analysis showed that HOMA-β was positively correlated with SOD level ( R2 = 0.319, P < 0.01). Five years after treatment, the final outcome was insulin therapy in 3 cases (6.5%), oral medication in 25 cases (54.4%), and lifestyle intervention in 18 cases (39.1%). Conclusion:CS II for the treatment of newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus can effectively inhibit oxidative stress, improve the function of islet β cells, and exhibit long-term effects.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of high frequency ultrasound on lesions of knee traumas.Methods Ninty-eight cases with post-traumatic knee injuries were examined by high frequency ultrasound,and the characteristics of changing ultrasonogram were observed and comparing with surgical results and MR.Results Of the 98 cases with post-traumatic knee injuries,there were 57 cases with effusion and hematocele in knee joint,among which there were 41 cases with collateral ligaments and meniscus injuries,the diagnostic coincidence rate was 93.3% in tendon tear and complete tendon fracture(compared with MR),91.7% in partial and complete muscle tear(compared with MR),67.7% and 71.4% in collateral ligaments and meniscus injuries(compared with surgical results).Conclusions High frequency ultrasound can be used as a conventional imaging examination method for post-traumatic knee injuries.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the depression in stroke patients with broca aphasia.Methods Aphasia Depression Rating Scale (ADRS) and Zung's self-rating depression scale (SDS) were applied in patients on the first stroke with broca aphasia (Aphasia group,66 cases).The results were compared with stroke patients without aphasia(control group,66 cases).Results Compared to control group,the incidence of depression in Aphasia group was significantly higher(62.12% vs 25.76%,P
