Effects of Trimetazidine on Newly Onset of T2DM in Coronary Artery Disease Patients / 现代医院

Objective To explore the effects of trimetazidine (TMZ) on newly onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) in coronary artery disease patients. Methods Using nested-case-control study and a total of 639 coronary artery patients but without T2DM were enrolled. All the patients were followed-up until March, 2015. T2DM was diagnosed with OGTT. The effects of TMZ on T2DM onset, serum levels of fatty acid, HbA1c and insulin were analyzed. Results At the end of the followed-up, a total of 103 T2DM patients were identified. TMZ is still an independent risk factor of newly onset of T2DM after confounding factors were adjusted. TMZ therapy reduced serum HbA1c, FFA and insulin levels. Besides, TMZ treatment was related to proper time to reach the peak of insulin secretion. Conclusion TMZ therapy can reduce newly onset of T2DM in coronary artery disease patients. The affects of lowering serum FFA, which caused insulin resistance, may be its underlying mechanism.

Expression and clinical significance of Survivin and PTEN in cervical carcinoma / 肿瘤研究与临床

Objective To study the expression and clinical significance of Survivin and PTEN in cervical carcinoma. Methods The expression of Survivin and PTEN in 60 cases of cervical carcinoma, 15 cases of CIN Ⅰ , 15 cases of CIN Ⅱ, 15 cases of CIN Ⅲ and 15 cases of normal cervical tissues were detected by immunohistochemical staining. Results The expression positive rates of Survivin were 86.67 %, 80.00 %,33.33 %, 20.00 % and 0, respectively, and those of PTEN were 21.67 %, 40.00 %, 80.00 %, 86.67 % and 100.00 % in cervical carcinoma, CIN Ⅲ, CIN Ⅱ, CIN Ⅰ and normal cervical tissues, respectively. The expression positive rates of Survivin were increased along with normal cervical epithelium, CIN Ⅰ, CIN Ⅱ,CIN Ⅲ and invasive carcinoma of cervix;while those of PTEN were inverse order.Compared with the expression positive rates of Survivin and PTEN protein in the CIN Ⅱ group, those in the CIN Ⅲ group had significant differences (P 0.05). There was a negative correlation between the expression of PTEN and Survivin in cervical carcinoma. Conclusion The expressions of Survivin and PTEN are correlated with invasion and metastasis of cervical carcinoma, and be related to clinical pathotology.Survivin and PTEN may play a important role in the formation, proliferation, differentuation and metastasis of cervical carcinoma. They may be used as markers of early diagnose, efficacy and prognosis evaluation.
