目的：探讨糖尿病大鼠视网膜血管内皮生长因子（VEGF）与一氧化氮（NO）的变化及其在糖尿病视网膜病变（DR）发生发展过程中的作用。方法：选择健康成年SD大鼠，随机分成正常对照组，糖尿病1月（DM1），糖尿病3月（DM3）和糖尿病5月（DM5）组，一次性腹腔注射链佐菌素（STZ）诱发糖尿病模型，应用免疫组织化学方法观察各组视网膜组织VEGF的表达情况，并检测各组视网膜组织中一氧化氮合酶（NOS）活性和NO含量变化。结果：3个月时，糖尿病大鼠视网膜VEGF表达增强，NOS活性增强，NO含量增高，5个月时，糖尿病大鼠视网膜表达进一步增强，而NOS活性开始减弱，NO含量减少，结论：糖尿病大鼠视网膜VEGF的过度表达和NOS活性，NO含量的变化在DR的发生发展过程中起重要作用。     

Systematic screening for diabetic retinopathy with a digital fundus camera following pupillary dilatation in a university diabetes department.

AIMS: Screening for diabetic retinopathy (DR) is highly inadequate in France because of insufficient infrastructure and increasing disease prevalence. We describe the results of the first systematic DR screening programme established in a university diabetes department. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study conducted over 1 year, consecutive adult patients underwent three-field retinal photography with the Topcon TRC NW6S digital fundus camera following pupillary dilatation with Tropicamide 1%. A questionnaire provided information on patients' systemic and ocular history. Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) was measured at the screening visit.Two ophthalmologists graded the retinal photographs in a masked fashion. RESULTS: Of 1157 patients attending the diabetes department, 1153 (99.7%)underwent photographic screening. Images were gradable in 96% patients.Diabetic retinopathy was detected in 522 (45%) patients and sight-threatening DR in 167 (14%). Of 704 (61%) patients previously believed to have no DR,254 (34%) screened positive. The presence of DR was associated with age,insulin use and non-Caucasian ethnicity in Type 2 patients, and with duration of diabetes and HbA1c in Type 1 and Type 2 patients. Associated ocular pathologies were diagnosed in 612 (53%) patients. CONCLUSIONS: Our photographic screening programme using pharmacological mydriasis provided a high screening coverage feasible in a hospital setting. We obtained information regarding prevalence and associated risk factors of DR inpatients attending a tertiary care centre. Screening was well accepted by patients and met with no protest from city ophthalmologists. It generated considerable interest among endocrinologists and feedback of results is expected to improve optimization of glycaemic control.     

Prevalence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy and relation to glycemic control therapies at baseline in the BARI 2D cohort

Abstract   We evaluated the associations between glycemic therapies and prevalence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) at baseline among participants in the Bypass Angioplasty Revascularization Investigation 2 Diabetes (BARI 2D) trial on medical and revascularization therapies for coronary artery disease (CAD) and on insulin-sensitizing vs. insulin-providing treatments for diabetes. A total of 2,368 patients with type 2 diabetes and CAD was evaluated. DPN was defined as clinical examination score >2 using the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI). DPN odds ratios across different groups of glycemic therapy were evaluated by multiple logistic regression adjusted for multiple covariates including age, sex, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and diabetes duration. Fifty-one percent of BARI 2D subjects with valid baseline characteristics and MNSI scores had DPN. After adjusting for all variables, use of insulin was significantly associated with DPN (OR = 1.57, 95% CI: 1.15–2.13). Patients on sulfonylurea (SU) or combination of SU/metformin (Met)/thiazolidinediones (TZD) had marginally higher rates of DPN than the Met/TZD group. This cross-sectional study in a cohort of patients with type 2 diabetes and CAD showed association of insulin use with higher DPN prevalence, independent of disease duration, glycemic control, and other characteristics. The causality between a glycemic control strategy and DPN cannot be evaluated in this cross-sectional study, but continued assessment of DPN and randomized therapies in BARI 2D trial may provide further explanations on the development of DPN.

Systematic review of methods to diagnose infection in foot ulcers in diabetes.

AIM: To undertake a systematic review of the diagnostic performance of clinical examination, sample acquisition and sample analysis in infected foot ulcers in diabetes. METHODS: Nineteen electronic databases plus other sources were searched. To be included, studies had to fulfil the following criteria: (i) compare a method of clinical assessment, sample collection or sample analysis with a reference standard; (ii) recruit diabetic individuals with foot ulcers; (ii) present 2 x 2 diagnostic data. Studies were critically appraised using a 12-item checklist. RESULTS: Three eligible studies were identified, one each on clinical examination, sample collection and sample analysis. For all three, study groups were heterogeneous with respect to wound type and a small proportion of participants had foot ulcers due to diabetes. No studies identified an optimum reference standard. Other methodological problems included non-blind interpretation of tests and the time lag between index and reference tests. Individual signs or symptoms of infection did not prove to be useful tests when assessed against punch biopsy as the reference standard. The wound swab did not perform well when assessed against tissue biopsy. Semiquantitative analysis of wound swab might be a useful alternative to quantitative analysis. The limitations of these findings and their impact on recommendations from relevant clinical guidelines are discussed. CONCLUSION: Given the importance of this topic, it is surprising that only three eligible studies were identified. It was not possible to describe the optimal methods of diagnosing infection in diabetic patients with foot ulceration from the evidence identified in this systematic review.

循环内皮细胞水平与糖尿病肾病的相关性及银杏达莫的干预作用

目的:探讨外周血循环内皮细胞(CEC)和糖尿病肾病(DN)的相关性,以及银杏达莫注射液在DN防治中的可能作用。方法:检测65例2型糖尿病患者24h尿白蛋白排泄率(UAER)及CEC数,分析两者的相关性。将UAER为30~300mg·d-1的45例患者随机分为两组,常规治疗组22例,进行常规降血糖、控制血压等治疗;银杏达莫治疗组23例,在常规治疗基础上静脉滴注银杏达莫注射液2周。比较两组治疗前后血糖、血压、UAER及CEC水平的变化。结果:单纯糖尿病(SDM)组和早期糖尿病肾病(EDN)组的外周血CEC水平比对照组(NC)显著性升高,并呈逐渐增高的趋势(P<0.01)。UAER与收缩压(SBP)、外周血CEC水平呈正相关(P<0.01)。EDN组中,银杏达莫治疗后UAER及CEC明显降低(P<0.01);而常规治疗组无明显变化。线性多元逐步回归分析表明,银杏达莫治疗后UAER的改变与CEC数的变化成正相关(P<0.01)。结论:血管内皮细胞(VEC)损伤在DN发生发展中起重要作用,银杏达莫对VEC的保护作用可能是其延缓DN发展的重要机制。
