ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of weight self-management in reproductive-aged obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods A total of 56 reproductive-aged obese women with PCOS were divided into two groups with the control group administered medicine to reduce the lipid,blood glucose and metformin and the experiment group managed with weight self-management in addition of the medicine treatment as in the control group.All of them were treated for six months.The number of women with oligomenorrhea,body mass index(BMI),waist-hip ratio(WHR),serum total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),fasting blood glucose(FBG), fasting insulin(FINS),homeostasis model assessment(HOMA)were measured before and after intervention for comparisons.Result The number of women with oligomenorrhea together with the levels of TC,TG,FBG,FINS and HOMA were significantly reduced in the two groups(allP<0.05),and the number of women with oligomenorrhea and the levels of BMI,TC and HOMA were decreased more than those in the control group(allP<0.05).Conclusion The weight self-management on the basis of drug therapy for reproductive-aged obese women with PCOS can significantly reduce the levels of BMI,WHR,TC,TG,FBG,FINS and HOMA,enhance the effect of drug therapy, reduce the incidence of oligomenorrhea and improve the metabolic disorders.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the gene expression profile by using gene chip technology and probe into the role of corresponding gene in the pathogenesis of nasal polyps by analysing the difference of the gene depression.@*METHOD@#The total RNAs were respectively extracted from 6 pairs of inferior turbinates and nasal polyps, and then were reversely transcribed to cDNAs with incorporation of fluorescent dUTP as the hybridization probes. The mixed probes were then hybridized with the BiostarH-40 s gene chips, it was scanned by laser scanner and the acquired image was analyzed by software.@*RESULT@#1887 genes were differently expressed in gene profile of nasal polyps, among which 1099 were upregulated and 788 were down-regulated. Six genes were found in all gene chips, among which 4 genes were upregulated and 2 were down-regulated. The 6 genes encoded the protein of the transmembrane 4 superfamily, highly similar to GAMMA-interferon-inducible protein IP-30 precursor, highly similar to complement factor I precursor and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP3).@*CONCLUSION@#Detecting the differently expressed genes will provide clues and theoretical foundation for the pathogenesis of nasal polyps. The nasal polyps is a polygenic disease and the genes of GAMMA-interferon-inducible protein, insulin-like growth factor binding protein may play an important role in its pathogenesis.
