ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the relationship between diabetic retinopathy(DR) and serum vitamin D in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods A total of 310 patients with T2DM both managed in the bio-bank and the diabetes management system of Center for Disease Control and Prevention of Minhang District during Feb.,2012 to Dec.,2014 were selected.Then 205 patients were divided into non diabetic retinopathy group (NDR) and 105 patients into DR group according to the fundus examinations.The patients' demographical information,medical history and laboratory essays were collected,serum 25 (OH)D levels were detected.Results Single factor analysis indicated that,compared with NDR group,25(OH)D level of DR group decreased(t =3.465,P＜0.001),prevalence of 25(OH)D deficiency rose (x2 =5.313,P =0.021),however,prevalence of 25 (OH) D insufficiency showed no statistical significance (x2 =0.990,P =0.320).Binary Logistic regression analyses showed the inverse correlation between 25 (OH)D level and DR (OR =0.954,95％CI:0.926-0.983,P =0.002),in addition,the risk for DR in T2DM patients who were deficient in 25 (OH)D was 2.17 times than those who were not (OR =2.171,95％ CI:1.047-4.500,P =0.037),after adjusting for a number of variables (demographics,medical history,fasting plasma glucose,postprandial blood glucose,triglyceride and uric acid).Conclusions Serum 25 (OH)D level was negatively related with DR in patients with T2DM.25 (OH)D deficiency might be relevant to the risk of type 2 diabetic retinopathy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To realize leap-forward development in hospital informatization with the cloud hospital construction in Xiamen Third Hospital taken as an example.Methods The concept of Health Medical Cloud in Xiamen was introduced,and the advantages,risks,establishment of safety protection unit,difficulty and etc were analyzed during the cloud hospital construction.Results The cloud hospital enhanced hospital efficiency and medical service greatly,and the objectives were fulfilled for the cloud hospital.Conclusion The cloud hospital saves the costs for construction,running and maintenance,shortens the period for system construction,enhances hospital informatization.

ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the clinicopathologic features of primary nodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (NMZL).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Hematoxylin-Eosin staining and immunohistochemistry were used to evaluate the histological and immunophenotypic characteristics of lymph node (LN) tissue in 22 NMZL cases. Additionally, interphase fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) was carried out to detect the presence of t(11;18) (q21;q21)/API2-MALT1 and/or t(14;18)(q32;q21)/IGH-MALT1 in 9 cases.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The median age of the 22 patients was 62 (16 - 77) ys. The male-to-female ratio was 1.2:1. All patients exhibited asymptomatic lymphadenopathy with the cervical region as the most often site to be involved (n = 11), followed by axillary (n = 9), inguinal (n = 7), submandibular (n = 6), mediastinal (n = 4), supraclavicular (n = 2) and retroperitoneal lymph nodes (n = 1). The Ann Arbor stages were I/II in 13 (59%) cases and III/IV in 9 (41%). Immunohistochemical study showed a consistently strong expression of CD20 and an absence in the expression of CD3ε, CD10, CD21, CD23, CyclinD1 and BCL6 by the tumor cells in all the cases. Frequency of expression of CD5 and BCL2 were 39% (7/18) and 30% (3/14) respectively. Among the 9 cases performed with FISH, 2 cases harbored t(14;18)and another 1 case positive for t(11;18) and t(14;18). Complete follow-up data were available for 13 cases. The follow-up time was 6 to 44 months. 3 of them died. 3-year cumulative survival rate was 67%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>NMZL patients are often elderly, which mainly present with multiple lymphadenopathy, rare involvement of extranodal organ and early stage. The diagnosis must be based on a combination of clinicopathologic features, especially those patients detected t(11;18) and/or t(14;18).</p>
