ABSTRACT
Objective:To examine the relationship between fasting blood glucose(FBG)levels and H. pylori infection, as well as their impact on eradication and recurrence rates.Methods:A total of 1 584 patients with type 2 diabetes, ranging in age from 44 to 91 years old(mean age of 66.6±7.6 years), were included in this study conducted at the Physical Examination Center of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University between March 2010 and December 2019.Of the total participants, 1 063(67.1%)were male and 521(32.9%)were female.Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the impact of age, gender, fasting blood glucose, and H. pylori infection on the patients.In the study, 263 patients in the euglycemic control group(HbA1c<7%), 271 patients in the poor glycemic control group(HbA1c≥7%), and 269 patients in the control group underwent H. pylori eradication using bismuth-containing quadruple therapy, and the eradication efficacy, adverse reactions, and recurrence rates were compared after 1 year.Results:In patients with type 2 diabetes, the infection rate of H. pylori was found to be 48.2%.Further regression analysis revealed that poor glycemic control increased the risk of H. pylori infection( OR=1.611, 95% CI: 1.269~2.045, P<0.01). However, the constituent ratio and infection rate of different hypoglycemic drug groups did not show any significant statistical difference.The eradication rate of H. pylori was 90.9%, and there was no significant difference in the eradication rate among different blood glucose groups and control groups.However, after 1 year, the recurrence rate was 3.8%, with a higher rate observed in the poor glycemic control group compared to the euglycemic control group and the control group( P<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in constipation as the main side effect of eradication therapy between the diabetic group and the control group[25.1%(134/253) vs.16.4%(44/269), P<0.01]. Conclusions:Diabetic patients with fasting hyperglycemia or poor glycemic control are at an increased risk of H. pylori infection.Additionally, these patients have a higher risk of recurrence after eradication.Therefore, it is important for clinicians to closely monitor and manage glycemic control in diabetic patients to reduce the risk of H. pylori infection and improve treatment outcomes.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the relationship between proactive personality, resilience and achievement motivation of military cadets, and to explore the mediating role of resilience between proactive personality and achievement motivation, as well as the moderating effect of cadets’leading ability on this mediating role.Methods:In this study, 109 military cadets were measured with proactive personality scale, Connor-Davidson resilience scale (CD-RISC) and achievement motivation scale. SPSS 26.0 was used for descriptive statistical analysis and correlation analysis.Results:①There was a significant correlation among the total scores of proactive personality, resilience and achievement motivation ( Ps<0.01). ②Proactive personality could significantly predict the level of achievement motivation ( a=0.454, P<0.001), and resilience could significantly predict the level of achievement motivation ( b=0.231, P=0.019). ③Resilience significantly mediated the relationship between proactive personality and achievement motivation ( c′=0.3, P=0.003). ④Cadets' leading ability moderated the effect of resilience on achievement motivation (index=0.338, 95% CI: 0.057 to 0.881). The mediating effect of resilience between proactive personality and achievement motivation was significant for cadets' leaders (Effect=0.381, 95% CI: 0.085 to 1.005), but not significant for other students (Effect=0.043, 95% CI: -0.069 to 0.252). Conclusion:The proactive personality of military cadets can affect the level of achievement motivation through psychological resilience, which is also moderated by cadre identity, suggesting that military education should improve the level of achievement motivation in many ways.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of tacrolimus(FK506)in promoting repair of the injured spinal cord pathway after neural stem cell transplantation in rats. Methods A neurysm clip was used to compress the T8 spinal cord segment of SD rats under microscope to establish model of spinal cord injury.The rats were randomly divided into three groups seven days after injury,ie,control group (injection of normal saline at the injury center),transplantation group(injection of neural stem cells,NSCs,at the injury center),FK506 group(injection of NSCs at the injury center plus 7 days of intrapernerve conduction was compared by using the Basso-Beatfle-Bresnahan (BBB) scale,BDA tracing,somatosensory evoked potential(SEP)and motor evoked potentials(MEP)monitoring at 1,2,4 and 8weeks. Results The motor function of the hind limb after injury was recovered in various degrees with time,with the most significant recovery at 4 weeks.The BBB score reached 6,the maximum at 8 weeks.BDA tracing showed that some nerve fibers were found crossing the injured center of the spinal cord one week later in FK506 group and cell transplantation group,that BDA-positive labeled corticospinal tract fibets were seen across the injury site in all groups by the end ofthe eight weeks.In the FKS06 group,the regeneration could be observed even as 1.7 cm away from tlle injury center.SEP latency was significantly shorter in the FK506 group after two weeks(P<0.05)and the MEP latency in the FK506 group was shortened significantly at four weeks compared with the other groups(P<0.05),indicating that the immunosuppressants could promote the recovery of the injured spihal cord,shorten the latency of SEP and MEP，improve SEP at early stage and MEP at late stage．Conclusions Systemic application immuno suppressive agents FK506 plays an important role in neuroprotection and neurotrophy，which promotes the repair of the injured spinal cord after neural stem cell transplantation．
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the value of standard large trauma craniotomy in frontotemporal and parietal contrecoup craniocerebral injury.Methods Forty-six patients with frontotemporal and parietal contrecoup craniocerebral injury were treated by standard large trauma craniotomy. Based on GOS, the clinical curative effect and complications of these patients during 3 to 6 months after operation were evaluated.Results 22 cases (47.83%) recovered well, 6 cases (13.04%) suffered from moderate disability, 4 cases (8.7%) remained severe disability, and 14 cases (30.43%) died. The common complications after operation were delayed intracranial hematoma, cerebral penetrating malformation, hydrocephalus, defect of skull syndrome and so on.Conclusion Standard large trauma craniotomy is a good therapeutic method for frontotemporal and parietal contrecoup craniocerebral injury.
