ABSTRACT
Objective:To construct a new model for assessing insulin resistance(IR) in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients by combining anthropometry parameters and biochemical parameters.Methods:A total of 677 newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients were included in this study. Clinical data, biochemical indicators, and body composition measurements were collected, and a predictive model was constructed using logistic regression analysis.Results:The IR prediction model was constructed based on five indicators: triglycerides(TG), fasting plasma glucose(FPG), visceral fat area(VFA), alanine aminotransferase(ALT), and uric acid(UA). The formula for the new predictive model was as follows: y=-17.765+ 1.389×ln VFA+ 1.045×ln UA+ 0.91×ln ALT+ 2.167×ln FPG+ 0.805×ln TG. The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC) area under the curve(AUC) for the model was 0.82, with an optimal cutoff value of 1.67, sensitivity of 0.80, and specificity of 0.71. The AUC values for the triglyceride glucose(TyG) index, lipid accumulation product(LAP), and triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio(THR) were 0.75, 0.75, and 0.70, respectively. The corresponding sensitivities were 0.66, 0.84, and 0.71, and the specificities were 0.71, 0.59, and 0.60. The optimal cutoff values were 1.81, 30.31, and 1.14, respectively. Conclusion:The new model constructed using TG, FPG, VFA, ALT, and UA as indicators showed high predictive value and can serve as a new model for assessing IR in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the treating effect of middle and high doses of acetone and aether extracts from Rumex.Japonicus Houtt on mouse thrombocytopenia.Methods 80 BACB/C mice were randomly divided into 5 groups(n=16): negative control group(salad oil),middle dose(0.5 g?kg-1) and high dose(5 g?kg-1)of acetone and aether extracts groups.All mice in various group were injected with cyclophos-phamide(0.3 mL/20 g) by hypodermic for 3 d to set up the thrombocytopenic model;after mouse thrombocytopenic model was successfully set up,the mice were given salad oil,middle and high doses of acetone and aether extracts,respectively,by gastric perfusion,20 d later the mice were executed,the numbers of the platelet,red cells and white cells were determined.Results ①The numbers of platelet numbers of all groups on the 14th day after making model decreased significantly(P0.05).Conclusion Middle and high doses of acetone and aether extracts have obviously curative effect on mouse thrombocytopenia.
ABSTRACT
Aim To observe the effect of sodium nitrop russide (SNP)on glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) synthesis in the gerbil hippocampus. Method lmmunofluorescent histochemical staining method was used. Result SNP increased GFAP synthesis in rediatum layer,molecular layer and dentate gyrus.There were not GFAP positive cells in rediatum layer and mol ecular layer.Number of GFAP positive cells related to dose of SNP.Conclu sion SNP increased GFAP synthesis.
ABSTRACT
AIM To determine the effect of L-arginin e on cerebral blood perfusion following subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH) in rats. METHODS Endovascular perforating SAH models were replicated in Wista r rats, and animals were divided into sham-operated group, SAH group and SAH+ L-arginine group. Dynamic changes of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) with in 24 hours were measured and serum nitric oxide(NO, NO - 2/NO - 3)levels at different time points within 24 hours were detected. Mean arterial blood pre ssure and blood gas were monitored during the experiment. RESULTS No obvious change in physiological parameters in the three groups was observed . rCBF and serum nitric oxide level at every time point after operation in SAH g roup were lower than those in sham-operated group. Pathological alterations abo ve in SAH+L-arginine group were less obvious than those in SAH group. CONCLUSION L-arginine, by antagonizing the decrease of nitric oxi de, exerts protective effect on secondary cerebral ischemia following SAH.
