RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the relationship between prolonged PR interval and carotid atherosclerosis(CAS)in middle-aged and elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:A total of 537 middle-aged and elderly inpatients with T2DM in the Southern Branch of the Sixth People′s Hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University from January 2019 to January 2021 were selected as the research objects. Color Doppler ultrasound was used to detect bilateral carotid artery intima-media thickness(CIMT). The subjects were divided into carotid atherosclerosis group(CAS group, n=352)and non-carotid atherosclerosis group(NCAS group, n=185). The difference in the PR interval of ECG between the two groups was compared. Pearson or Spearman rank correlation analysis was used for evaluating the correlation of PR interval and CAS lesions with various clinical index. The relationship between PR interval and CAS lesions was adopted by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results:The average PR interval of middle-aged and elderly patients with T2DM was(164.57±23.02)ms. The average PR interval in CAS group was significantly higher than that in NCAS group [(169.76±24.28) vs (154.70±16.42)ms, P<0.01]. The results of multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that age, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, serum osteocalcin, and PR interval were independent factors influencing the development of CAS lesions in middle-aged and elderly patients with T2DM( OR=1.079, 1.936, 0.879, 1.039, respectively, P<0.05 or P<0.01)where each 1 ms increase in PR interval was associated with a 3.9% increase in the risk of CAS in middle-aged and elderly patients with T2DM( OR=1.039, 95% CI 1.006-1.073, P=0.020). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that middle-aged and elderly type 2 diabetic patients with PR interval≥158 ms were 4.072 times more likely to have CAS lesions than those with PR interval<158 ms( OR=4.072, 95% CI 1.417-11.702, P<0.01). Conclusion:The PR interval of electrocardiogram is correlated with CAS lesions in middle-aged and elderly patients with T2DM. Middle-aged and elderly type 2 diabetic patients with significantly prolonged PR interval should be reminded to screen for CAS lesions early.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the detection value of α-L-fucosidase (AFU) in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and the correlation of AFU with total bile acids (TBA).Methods Anthropometric parameters and serum biochemical indexes were recorded and 75 g OGTT was performed then according to OGTT result,patients with GDM were confirmed and matched the control group by age and BMI.Results The level of AFU in GDM group was higher than that that of normal glucose tolerance (NGT) group and associated with 1 hour postprandial glucose.After correcting ALT and HbA1c,AFU correlated with TBA.Conclusions During pregnancy,AFU has reference value for the diagnosis of GDM and 1 hour postprandial glucose is its independent factor.The rise AFU is combined with the decrease of.DBIL but the increase of TBA and ALP,which indicates bile duct system in patients with GDM is in an active state.
RESUMO
Objective To study liver regeneration of the non-ligated liver lobes following portal branch ligation (PBL). Methods Sixty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into PBL group and sham operation (SO) group. Under ether anesthesia, the rats were subjected to PBL and sham operation, respectively. The animals were sacrificed on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 7th and 14th day respectively. The blood sample was collected from heart and the livers were harvested to determine serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels and total liver weight, respectively. The hepatic histopathology was studied through light microscopy. The number of liver cell nuclear mitosis index was counted. The number of proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) index was counted by immunohistochemistry. The hepatic ultrastructural changes were studied under electron microscope. Results Elevated serum ALT level was observed in the first postoperative day in PBL group compared with SO group (P
