糖疏康对糖尿病骨质疏松大鼠VDR、TGF-β1、CaBp-D9K mRNA表达影响的实验研究

目的观察糖疏康对糖尿病性骨质疏松（DOP）大鼠维生素D受体（VDR）mRNA、转移生长因子-β1（TGF-β1）mRNA、钙结合蛋白（CaBp-D9K）mRNA表达水平的影响。方法采用腹腔注射链脲佐菌素造模。Wistar大鼠50只．10只作空白对照组,余大鼠腹腔内注射链脲佐菌素造糖尿病模型,测血糖后将符合诊断标准的30只糖尿病大鼠随机分成治疗组、西药对照组与病理组。分别给予糖疏康、碳酸钙阿法迪三和生理盐水灌胃给药。12周后取材,切片,进行维生素D受体（VDR）mRNA、转移生长因子-β1（TGF-β1）mRNA、钙结合蛋白（CaBp-D9K）mRNA原位杂交实验。结果糖疏康组与碳酸钙阿法迪三对照组治疗后提高VDRmRNA、CaBp-D9KmRNA与骨TGF-β1mRNA表达水平,且两组之间有显著差异（P〈0．01）。结论糖疏康能够调节DOP大鼠小肠VDRmRNA、CaBp-D9KmRNA与骨TGF-β1mRNA表达水平,影响VDR、CaBp-D9K与TGF-β1的合成与分泌,进而促进肠钙吸收与成骨细胞活性。     

中老年股骨颈骨折全髋关节置换术和中空加压螺钉内固定术临床比较

目的比较全髋关节置换术和中空加压螺钉固定术治疗中老年股骨颈骨折的疗效。方法对55～65岁有移位新鲜股骨颈骨折患者85例的治疗情况进行回顾分析，其中51例行中空加压螺钉内固定术，34例行全髋关节置换术，进行了住院情况，术后1年，术后3年功能评估。结果全髋关节置换组在手术时间，术后早期下床活动等方面具有一定的优越性，但全髋关节置换假体费用较贵，3年后有2例出现假体松动。中空加压螺钉固定组有45例3年后无任何并发症发生，髋关节功能活动良好，且能够从事正常体力劳动。结论中老所股内颈骨折患者手术治疗应首选中空加压螺钉内固定术治疗。

110例精索静脉曲张临床分析

本文报告60年代以来我院收治的精索静脉曲张110例。其中左侧占96.36％,右侧占2.73％,双侧占0.9％。发病高峰年龄在16～20岁之间。已婚病人40％伴有不育症。经手术治疗的病人至少有15％以上精索静脉曲张持续或复发。通过总结,作者认为治疗不能一味强调哪种术式优越,而应通过精索内静脉造影来了解情况,只有因人而异确定治疗方案才是科学的,合理的。

Stage cT3 low rectal cancer: analysis of prognostic factors

BackgroundWhether all cT3 low rectal cancer patients should receive neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) remains controversial. The depth of invasion beyond the muscularis propria of the cT3 rectal cancer is of great significance to the selection of a treatment plan and the evaluation of prognosis.MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted of 187 patients with stage cT3 low rectal cancer, who had been treated at the Department of Colorectal Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University from June 2010 to December 2012. The patients were divided into the nCRT group (88 cases) and no-nCRT group (99 cases). Possible significant prognostic factors [i.e., primary tumor volume (PTV), cell differentiation, circumferential resection margin (CRM), nCRT, age, sex, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), lymph node status, surgical procedure, etc.] were collected for estimation of disease-free survival (DFS), distant metastases rate (DM), local recurrence rate (LR). Independent predictive factors or survival were determined using Cox proportional hazards model.ResultsThe mean PTV was 16.2±11.1 (2.07–72.68) cm³. In the univariate and multivariate analyses: nCRT hazards ratio (HR) =4.258, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.912–9.483 (P<0.001); PTV HR =0.381, 95% CI: 0.181–0.804 (P=0.011); CRM HR =0.227, 95% CI: 0.097–0.532 (P=0.001). For the PTV ≤15 cm³ group, there were no significant differences between the nCRT and no-nCRT group in 3-year follow-up (P>0.05). For the PTV >15 cm³ group, there were significant differences between the nCRT and no-nCRT group in 3-year DFS (84.2% vs. 51.1%; P=0.001), DM (13.1% vs. 31.2%; P=0.017) and LR (2.9% vs. 26.6%; P=0.009). For the CRM negative group, there were significant differences between the nCRT and no-nCRT group in 3-year DFS (94.0% vs. 79.0%; P=0.008), LR (1.5% vs. 10.7%; P=0.028) and DM (4.5% vs. 13.5%; P=0.039).ConclusionsFor stage cT3 low rectal cancer patients, nCRT, PTV, and CRM were independent prognostic factors. NCRT may improve the survival of PTV >15 cm³ patients, but may not have a significant effect on patient with PTV ≤15 cm³ and CRM negative. Direct surgery is recommended for this group of patients.     

Meta-analysis of human lung cancer microRNA expression profiling studies comparing cancer tissues with normal tissues

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Lung cancer is the major cause of cancer death globally, it is often diagnosed at an advanced stage and has one of the lowest survival rates of any type of cancer. The common interest in the field of lung cancer research is the identification of biomarkers for early diagnosis and accurate prognosis. There is increasing evidence to suggest that microRNAs play important and complex roles in lung cancer. METHODS: A meta-analysis was conducted to review the published microRNA expression profiling studies that compared the microRNAs expression profiles in lung cancer tissues with those in normal lung tissues. A vote-counting strategy that considers the total number of studies reporting its differential expression, the total number of tissue samples used in the studies and the average fold change was employed. RESULTS: A total of 184 differentially expressed microRNAs were reported in the fourteen microRNA expression profiling studies that compared lung cancer tissues with normal tissues, with 61 microRNAs were reported in at least two studies. In the panel of consistently reported up-regulated microRNAs, miR-210 was reported in nine studies and miR-21 was reported in seven studies. In the consistently reported down-regulated microRNAs, miR-126 was reported in ten studies and miR-30a was reported in eight studies. Four up-regulated microRNAs (miR-210, miR-21. miR-31 and miR-182) and two down-regulated mcroiRNAs (miR-126 and miR-145) were consistently reported both in squamous carcinoma and adenocarcinoma-based subgroup analysis, with the other 14 microRNAs solely reported in one or the other subset. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, the top two most consistently reported up-regulated microRNAs were miR-210 and miR-21. The results of this meta-analysis of human lung cancer microRNA expression profiling studies might provide some clues of the potential biomarkers in lung cancer. Further mechanistic and external validation studies are needed for their clinical significance and role in the development of lung cancer.

The prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in the United Arab Emirates: justification for the establishment of the Emirates Family Registry

To study the prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) in a population of United Arab Emirates (UAE) residents through the creation of the ??Emirates Family Registry?? (EFR). Major hospitals and diabetes centres in the UAE were contacted to establish a bio-banking facility referred to as the EFR. Through assistance made available by the Ministry of Health and collaborators of this network, demographic data of T2DM patients were collected and collated in a database for analysis and longitudinal studies. Clinical specimens were collected for biochemical profiling (such as; glucose, lipids, HbA_1c levels). In the first 24?months of the operation the EFR recruited 23,064 adult volunteers from three major hospitals and nine primary care centres throughout the UAE. Within this cohort, 88% were patients classified as T2DM patients from the medical records. The cohort was divided into age categories with 59% of T2DM patients aged between 40 and 59?years old. UAE nationals comprised 30% of the database of which 21% were diagnosed with T2DM. However the percentage of adults with T2DM was higher in other ethnic groups effecting almost 33% of the Indians who live in the UAE. A total of 741 UAE Nationals consented to donate blood; in phase I of the study; for biochemical testing after which 23% were diagnosed with T2DM, 30% with pre-T2DM and 47% were healthy. This study is consistent with the previously reported high prevalence of T2DM in the UAE. Furthermore, analyses of the factors that predispose to the disease have revealed that obesity, a large waist circumference, consanguineous marriage, family history, lack of physical activity, unhealthy dietary practices, high total cholesterol, and high triglycerides levels were more prevalent in T2DM patients. The classification of these features will contribute to defining more effective and specific plans to screen for and manage diabetes and its complications in UAE and other developing countries.
