Analysis of correlation between serum NSE, hs-CRP levels and NIHSS score in patients with cerebral infarction / 中国基层医药

Objective To investigate the correlation between the changes of serum neuron specific enolase(NSE) and hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels and the degree of neurological deficit (NIHSS)score in patients with cerebral infarction.Methods From January 2017 to January 2019,63 patients with cerebral infarction admitted to Lishui Central Hospital were selected.According to NIHSS score,they were divided into 13 mild cases,30 moderate cases and 20 severe cases.According to infarction area,they were divided into large area group(16 cases),small area group (27 cases) and lacunar infarction group (20 cases).Another 60 cases underwent health examination in our hospital from January 2017 to January 2019 were selected as the control group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the content of NSE,and immunoturbidimetric assay was used to determine the content of hs-CRP.The changes of serum NSE and hs-CRP levels in the cerebral infarction group and control group,serum NSE,hs-CRP levels and NIHSS scores in different severity and infarction area,and the correlation between serum NSE and hs-CRP changes and NIHSS scores were compared.Results The serum levels of NSE [(21.34 ± 3.27) ng/mL] and hs-CRP [(10.48 ± 2.14) mg/L] in the cerebral infarction group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(6.23 ± 1.08) ng/mL,(2.83 ± 0.46) mg/L] (t =34.061,27.095,all P ＜ 0.05).The serum levels of NSE [(26.98 ± 3.64) ng/mL],hs-CRP [(15.36 ± 2.57) mg/L] and NIHSS score[(38.49 ±3.25) points] in the severe group were higher than those in the moderate group and mild group,which in the moderate group [(20.98 ± 3.21) ng/mL,(10.25 ± 2.09) mg/L and (22.18 ± 3.48) points]were higher than those in the mild group [(12.64 ± 2.78) ng/mL,(5.47 ± 1.40) mg/L and (7.38 ± 2.56)],the differences were statistically significant (F =14.975,9.132,15.873,all P ＜ 0.05).The serum levels of NSE[(25.43 ± 3.35) ng/mL],hs-CRP [(16.54 ± 2.71) mg/L] and NIHSS score [(37.34 ± 3.75) points] in the large area group were higher than those in the small area group and lacunar infarction group,which in the small area group [(21.67 ± 3.12) ng/mL,(10.86 ± 2.21) mg/L and (21.25 ± 3.26) points] were higher than those in the lacunar infarction group [(13.45 ± 2.97) ng/mL,(4.79 ± 1.35) mg/L and (8.49 ± 2.15) points],the differences were statistically significant (F =13.241,9.893,17.482,all P ＜ 0.05).The serum levels of NSE and hs-CRP were positively correlated with NIHSS score (r =0.829,0.713,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The levels of serum NSE and hs-CRP in patients with cerebral infarction increase with the progression of the disease,and there is a linear positive correlation between NSE and hs-CRP and NIHSS score.It is considered that NSE and hs-CRP are of great value in evaluating the degree of neurological impairment,the severity of the disease and the size of the infarct.

Comparison of insulin resistance and pancreatic β cell function between the pregnant women with normal and abnormal glucose metabolism / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

Objective To observe and compare the variation of insulin resistance and pancreatic β-cell function in pregnant women with abnormal and normal glucose metabolism during the first,second,and third trimesters,and to explore the feasibility of early diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM).Methods This is a prospective study.507 pregnant women with regular antenatal care from February 2009 to March 2010 were included in the study.Based on the results of oral glucose tolerance test,the patients with GDM consisted of 58,86,and 66 subjects respectively in the first,second,and third trimesters.The control group included 72,164,and 66 subjects respectively in the first,second,and third trimesters.Homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance index( HOMA-IR),homeostasis model assessment β-cell function (HOMA-β),area under curve of glucose (AUCG),area under curve of insulin ( AUCI ),30-minute insulin increase to 30-minute glucose increase ( △I30/△G30 ),and insulin sensitivity index composite(ISIcomp) were calculated for the evaluation of insulin resistance and pancreatic β-cell function.Results ( 1 ) AUCG and AUCI in the GDM group were statistically higher than those in control group while △I30/△G30and ISlcomp in the GDM group were statistically lower than those in the control group during the first trimester(P＜0.05),but HOMA-IR showed no statistically significant difference between two groups.In the GDM groups HOMA-IR,AUCG,and AUCI were statistically higher,whereas △I30/△G30 and ISIcomp were statistically lower than those in the control groups during the second and third trimesters (P ＜ 0.05 ). HOMA-β showed no statistically significant differences between the GDM groups and control groups during 3 trimesters.( 2 ) During thefirst,second,and third trimesters,blood glucose reached its peak by 0.5 h in the oral glucose tolerance test,and insulin reached its peak by 0.5-1 h in the control groups; while in the GDM groups the respective figures were 1 h and 2 h.Conclusions The insulin resistance in GDM patients diagnosed during the first,second,and third trimesters was higher than in pregnant women with normal glucose metabolism,and the peaks of blood glucose and insulin reached in oral glucose tolerance test were respectively delayed.The impaired pancreatic β-cell insulin secretion in GDM patients was present from early pregnancy.Thus for high-risk groups,oral glucose tolerance test during early pregnancy will be helpful for screening abnormal glucose metabolism.

Flow Cytometric Analysis of DNA Content in Parotid Tumor and Its Contiguous Acini / 华中科技大学学报（医学）（英德文版）

To investigate the relationship between proliferative capacity of salivary gland cells in contiguous acini of parotid tumors and recurrent neoplasma, DNA contents of 30 fresh specimens of parotid were studied by using cytometry in tumors, normal and shallow or deep lobe acini of the masses. The results showed that the DI was 1.369, S % 16.95, PI 26.18 in malignant tumors;DI was 1.171, S % 12.41, PI 15.54 in recurrent pleomorphic adenoma; DI was 1.141, S % 12.74, PI 13.07 in pleomorphic adenoma, DI was 0.999, S % 5.10, PI 8.00 in normal acini. Analysis of variance showed there was a significant difference (P＜0.01). The average DNA contents of shallow on deep lobe of contiguous tumors was 1.08 in DI, 10. 65 in S %, 13.49 in PI in malignant tumor, 1.06 in DI, 8.96 in S % and 9.85 in PI in pleomorphic adenoma, which were all higher than in normal acini (P＞0.05). It was concluded that the levels of DI and S % of parotid tumor and its contiguous acini are related to degree of malignancy or recurrent condition of the tumors, suggesting contiguous acini of parotid tumors had the strong capacity of proliferation,which might play an important role in recurrent or malignant change of the parotid tumors.
