RESUMO
Objective:To study the association of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) and advanced liver fibrosis with osteoporosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:Data was collected from 391 in-patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) from September 2019 to September 2020 at the Department of Endocrinology and Geriatric Medicine, Affiliated Huai′an First Hospital of Nanjing Medical University in this cross-sectional study. Participants were divided into T2DM with coexistent NAFLD(TCN) and with no NAFLD(TON) group via liver B-mode ultrasound.Also, the patients were divided into low and middle-high risk group via fibrosis index based on 4 factors index(FIB-4). Participant characteristics, laboratory results, and dual energy x-ray absorptiometry were obtained and analyzed. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association of NAFLD and advanced liver fibrosis with osteoporosis in T2DM. Interaction and stratified analyses were conducted according to age, sex, body mass index(BMI) and duration of diabetes(DD).Results:There was no significant difference in risk of osteoporosis and bone mineral density(BMD) loss between TCN and TON group(all P>0.05). After adjusting for age, sex, BMI, and DD, total hip BMD( β=-0.044, 95% CI -0.087--0.001, P=0.046) and lumbar L 1-L 4BMD( β=-0.044, 95% CI -0.087--0.002, P=0.044) were significantly reduced, and the risk of osteoporosis was significantly increased( OR=2.428, 95% CI 1.124-5.244, P=0.024) in FIB-4 middle-high risk group compared with low risk group. The subgroup analysis showed that overweight patients with T2DM had a significantly increased risk of osteoporosis( OR=4.240, 95% CI 1.637-10.987, interaction P=0.018) in FIB-4 middle-high risk group compared with low risk group. Conclusion:There was no significant difference in risk of osteoporosis and BMD loss between TCN and TON group. However, among T2DM patients who were overweight, NAFLD-related progressive liver fibrosis emerged as an independent risk factor for both BMD decline and the development of osteoporosis.
RESUMO
Objective To study the effectiveness and safety of different endoscopic papillary balloon dilation time in treatment of common bile duct stones. Methods 45 patients with common bile duct stones received ERCP treat﹣ment, and they were randomly divided into short-term and long-term balloon dilatation group, then compared opera﹣tive time, intraoperative and postoperative complication rate, hospitalization days and the total cost of hospitalization between the two groups. Results Short-term group included 22 people, the long term group included 23 people, there were no significant difference in stones' size, number and diameter of common bile duct between the two groups (P> 0.05), however, the success rate of surgery, time of stones' extraction, intraoperative complications and postoperative fistula were significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion Long-term balloon dilation during ERCP for treatment of common bile duct stones can improve the success rate of stone removal and reduce complications.
