Objective To assess the influence of different digestive tract reconstruction on the blood glucose of gastric antral cancer patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods The clinical data of 51 cases of gastric antral cancer with type 2 diabetes treated radical surgery in this hospital from January 2006 to January 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into three groups according to the different digestive tract reconstruction methods：BillrothⅠ anastomosis group （n=14）， BillrothⅡ anastomosis group （n=28）， and Roux-en-Y anastomosis group （n=9）. The indexes were analyzed and compared among three groups：① The levels of fast blood glucose （FBG） and 2h postprandial blood glucose （PG2h） were detected before operation and on 1 month and 6 months after the operation；② The level of glycated hemoglobin （HbA1c） was detected before operation and 6 months after the operation；③ The diabetes control was observed. Results The FBG and PG2h levels in the BillrothⅠ anastomosis group detected on 1 month and 6 months after the operation were not statistically different from those detected before the operation （P＞0.05）. The FBG and PG2h levels in the BillrothⅡanastomosis group and Roux-en-Y anastomosis group detected on 1 month and 6 months after the operation were significantly lower than those before the operation respectively （P＜0.05）. The FBG and PG2h levels in the BillrothⅡ anastomosis group detected on 1 month and 6 months after the operation were not statistically different from those in the Roux-en-Y anastomosis group respectively （P＞0.05）， but which were markedly lower than those in the BillrothⅠ anastomosis group， the differences were statistically significant （P＜0.05）. The HbA1c levels in the BillrothⅠ anastomosis group detected before the operation and on 6 months after the operation were not statistically different from each other （P＞0.05）. The HbA1c levels in the BillrothⅡ anastomosis group and Roux-en-Y anastomosis group detected on 6 months after the operation were markedly lower than those before the operation and the difference was statistically significant （P＜0.05）. On 6 months after the operation， the HbA1c levels in the BillrothⅡanastomosis group and Roux-en-Y anastomosis group were markedly lower than those in the BillrothⅠ anastomosis group and the differences were statistically significant （P＜0.05）；the HbA1c level was not statistically different between the BillrothⅡ anastomosis group and the Roux-en-Y anastomosis group （P＞0.05）. The total curative effects in the BillrothⅡ anastomosis and Roux-en-Y anastomosis groups were significantly better than those in the BillrothⅠ anastomosis group （P＜0.05）. Conclusion According to our limited clinical data， BillrothⅡ anastomosis and Roux-en-Y anastomosis for gastric antral cancer patients with type 2 diabetes may be the best surgical approach.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of bulbar subconjunctival and periocular injection of dexamethasonone on blood glucose levels of type 1 diabetic mellitus (T1DM)rats. Methods80 healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into GroupⅠ(n=40) and GroupⅡ(n=40). GroupⅠrats received intraperitoneal (IP) injection of streptozotocin to induce T1DM model, while GroupⅡrats received IP injection of citrate buffer solution and was the control group.GroupⅠrats and GroupⅡrats were further divided into four subgroups:A (n=10), a (n=10), B (n=10), and b (n=10). Subgroup-A rats received bulbar subconjunctival injection of dexamethasone, subgroup-a rats received bulbar subconjunctival injection of saline, subgroup-B rats received periocular injection of dexamethasone, subgroup-b rats received periocular injection of saline. After the injection, rats were fasted but could drink water. Tail vein blood samples were collected and the blood glucose level was measured by glucose monitor. ResultsAfter modeling, the blood glucose level of GroupⅠand GroupⅡrats was(9.31±1.79) mmol/L and (5.72±0.80) mmol/L respectively, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The blood glucose level of GroupⅠrats reached the peak in 3h after injection. In 6-24 h after injection, the blood glucose level of GroupⅠA rats was obviously increased than that of the blood glucose level of Group Ia rats and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). In 3-24 hours after injection, the blood glucose level of GroupⅠB rats was obviously increased than that of the blood glucose level of GroupⅠb rats and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Comparing the blood glucose level during different injection time between GroupⅠA rats and GroupⅠB rats, between GroupⅠa rats and GroupⅠb rats, the difference was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). In 3-24 hours after injection, the blood glucose level of GroupⅡA rats was obviously increased than that of the blood glucose level of GroupⅡa rats and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05); the blood glucose level of GroupⅡB rats was obviously increased than that of the blood glucose level of GroupⅡb rats and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Comparing the blood glucose level during different injection time between GroupⅡA rats and GroupⅡB rats, between GroupⅡa rats and GroupⅡb rats, the difference was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). ConclusionBulbar subconjunctival injection and periocular injection of dexamethasone could both increase the blood glucose of TIDM rats, but these two injection methods had no differences on the blood glucose level.
Objective To assess the differences between a glucose meter and autoanalyzer at home and broad.Method MEDLINE, CNKI, FMJS, and CBM were searched electronically (1995 to May, 2008). The statistical analysisof included studies was performed according to the Cochrane systematic reviews method. Result Twenty four studies, including 11 English records and 19 Chinese records involving 4 963 specimens, were included in this study. Meta-analysis showed us the blood glucose values of Abbott, Roche, and Johnson abroad subgroups are higher than the laboratory method, and their WMD (95%CI) are 0.57 (0.34,0.80), 0.43 (0.04,0.81), 0.41 (0.11,0.71). The blood glucose values of the Abbot and Roche domestic subgroups are comparable to the laboratory method [WMD= 0.60, 95%CI (– 0.79, 1.99); WMD= – 0.13, 95%CI (– 0.56, 0.29)]. The blood glucose value of the Johnson domestic subgroup is lower than laboratory method [WMD= – 0.95, 95%CI (– 1.42, – 0.48)]. Conclusion The results of the abroad studies are relatively consistent, and the blood glucose values of all abroad subgroups are higher than laboratory method. The domestic studies are different because of other factors.
Objective We investigated the effect of supplementation with alanyl-glutamine dipeptide on insulin resistance and outcome in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and respiratory failure. Methods A prospective, randomized, open and controlled trial was conducted. Patients with COPD and respiratory failure were recruited between Jan 2005 to Feb 2006 and randomly assigned to a trial group (n=14) with glutamine dipeptide supplmented parenteral nutrition and a control group (n=16) with isocaloric, isonitrogenic parenteral nutrition. On the third day and fifth day of nutrition treatment, blood glucose was clamped at level of 4.4 to 6.1 mmol/L by intravenously bumped insulin. Blood gas, blood glucose level, insulin dosage were recorded everyday. The outcomes were mortality, length of stay (LOS) in hospital and in ICU, mechanical ventilation times and the costs of ICU and hospital.Results Thirty patients successfully completed the trial. There was no difference in blood gas between two groups, but PaO2 increased gradually. Compared with control group, blood glucose level had trend to decrease in trial group. The average insul in consumption decreased significantly in trial group on the fifth day. There was no statistical difference between two groups in mortality, length of stay in hospital and the costs of hospital. But compared with control group, length of stay in ICU and mechanical ventilation days had trend to decrease in trial group. Conclusion Alanyl-glutamine dipeptide do not improve pulmonary function of patients with COPD and respiratory failure. However, alanyl-glutamine dipeptide attenuated insul in resistance and stabilized blood glucose. This trial does not confirm alanyl-glutamine di peptide can improve outcome in critically ill patients with COPD and respiratory failure between two groups in mortality at the end of 30 days, length of stay in hospital and the costs of hospital. But the length of stay in ICU and the duration of mechanical ventilation does decrease, but not significantly, in the trial group.
Objective To evaluate the change of blood sugar in diabetic patients after vitrectomy and analyze the relative reasons. Methods Nineteen diabetes II patients (20 eyes) who underwent vitrectomies received the tests of blood sugar preoperatively, and 1～2 hours, 1, 3, and 5 days postoperatively. Analysis of variance, apaired Studentrsquo;s t-test, and correlation analysis were used to analyze the change of postoperative blood sugar and correlation between postoperative blood sugar change and its relative factors. Results Postoperative blood sugar increased significantly compared with the preoperative one (Plt;0.05),reached the peak 1～2 hours postoperatively, and reached almost the preoperative level 5 days postoperatively (Pgt;0.05). There was a positive correlation between blood sugar increase and operation time, preoperative blood sugar level, and diabetic duration (Plt;0.05). Postoperative blood sugar was relative to potentiated anesthesia. Conclusion There is a regularity that blood sugar increases just postoperatively and reaches the preoperative level 5 days postoperatively. The relative factors to blood sugar change include preoperative blood sugar level, diabetic duration, operation time, and potentiated anesthesia. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2000,16:157-159)
Objective To investigate the effects of tight blood glucose control on the shortterm prognosis of the patients after heart valve replacement, in order to improve treatment effectiveness and lower postoperative complications. Methods A total of 240 patients including 150 males and 90 females underwent mitral valve replacement or mitral and aortic valve replacement were enrolled in this study from January 2007 to December 2008 at the cardiac surgery department of Renmin hospital of Wuhan university. The age of these patients ranged from 19 to 65 years old with an average age of 53.33 years. According to insulin administration time and blood glucose control level, they were randomly separated into two groups. In the experimental group, there were 121 patients who received continuous insulin infusion to maintain postoperative glucose level between 4.4 and 6.1 mmol/L, while 119 patients in the control group received insulin infusion when their glucose level went higher than 11.1 mmol/L to control the level between 6.1 and 11.1 mmol/L. Then the postoperative wound infection, malignant arrhythmia rate, the assisted ventilation time, intensive care unit(ICU) stay time and count of neutrophils were compared and analyzed. Results There was no hospitalized death in both groups. The rate of wound infection（3.31% vs.10.08%, χ2=4.430,P=0.035）, the assisted ventilation time（9.02±2.73 h vs. 10.01±3.58 h, t=2.280,P=0.024）, time for count of leukocytes to decrease to the normal level（11.04±3.16 d vs. 12.05±3.76 d, t=2.168,P=0.031）, average hospitalization time（13.49±3.81 d vs. 14.51±4.02 d,t=2.017,P=0.045）, and count of neutrophils on the third day（0.82±0.04 vs. 0.84±0.05, t=2.644,P=0.009） in the experimental group were significantly lower or shorter than those in the control group. But there was no significant difference between both groups in ICU stay time and the rate of malignant arrhythmia. Conclusion Tight blood glucose control can lower the rate of postoperative wound infection, shorten the assisted ventilation time and hospitalization time, and reduce the usage of antibiotics in patients after heart valve replacement. Accordingly, it can enhance the curative effect, reduce overall medical expenses, and improve prognosis.
Objectives To assess the prognostic value of blood sugar level for acute respiratory failure patients undergoing mechanical ventilation. Methods The study collected 139 acute respiratory failure patients undergoing mechanical ventilation admitted between February 2012 and October 2013. The patients were divided into a hyperglycemic group (n=123, blood sugar ≥143 mg/dl) and a non-hyperglycemic group (n=16, blood sugar <143 mg/dl). The data for basic clinical pathological characteristics and the blood sugar levels were collected, and the correlation between the blood sugar level and the prognosis was assessed using single factor analysis and logistic regression method. Results In the study, 88.49% of patients with acute respiratory failure undergoing mechanical ventilation had hyperglycemia (blood sugar ≥143 mg/dl). The proportions of patients with APACHEⅡ score ≥10, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or hypoxemia in the hyperglycemic group were significantly higher than those in the non-hyperglycemic group (P<0.05). APACHEⅡ ≥10, COPD and hypoxemia were significant risk factors for hyperglycemia. At the same time, the proportions of patients in the death group with hyperglycemia ≥143 mg/dl ( OR=8.354, 95%CI 1.067-65.388, P=0.018), APACHEⅡ≥10 ( OR=2.545, 95%CI 1.109-6.356, P=0.046), COPD ( OR=2.871, 95%CI 1.203-6.852, P=0.015), and hypoxemia ( OR=3.500, 95%CI 1.556-7.874, P=0.002) were significantly higher than those in the survival group. Kaplan-Meier curve analysis found that the overall survival of the hyperglycemic patients with acute respiratory failure was significantly lower than that in the non-hyperglycemic patients (P<0.001). Conclusion Blood sugar level can be used as an independent predictor for acute respiratory failure patients undergoing mechanical ventilation.
ObjectiveTo explore the application effect of the new in-hospital blood glucose management model for patients with stroke and diabetes mellitus during the epidemic of coronavirus disease 2019.MethodsA total of 120 patients with stroke and diabetes mellitus who were admitted to Mianyang Central Hospital and were consulted by the Department of Endocrinology between October 1st 2019 and April 12th 2020 were recruited. Patients who used the traditional consultation model for blood glucose management between October 1st 2019 and January 19th 2020 were classified as the control group (60 cases). Patients who were managed by the virtual ward of remote blood glucose management combined with the video consultation mode between January 20th 2020 and April 12th 2020 were classified as the observation group (60 cases). The basic conditions, the time to reach target blood glucose, the completion time of the consultation, the accuracy of blood glucose related data, the satisfaction rate of the consultation, the rate of reaching target blood glucose, the incidence of hypoglycemia, the blood glucose fluctuation (standard deviation of blood glucose level, maximum blood glucose fluctuation range), the incidence of nosocomial infections, diabetes mellitus diagnosis and treatment related expenses, and average hospitalization expenses of the two groups were compared.ResultsThere was no significant difference in the basic conditions between the two groups of patients (P>0.05). The time to reach target blood glucose [(5.38±2.16) vs. (8.18±2.63) d], completion time ofthe consultation [(4.33±1.51) vs. (17.97±3.23) h], incidence of hypoglycemia (6.67% vs. 21.67%), standard deviation of blood glucose level [(2.16±0.34) vs. (2.52±0.34) mmol/L] and maximum blood glucose fluctuation range [(5.72±1.36) vs. (6.34±1.51) mmol/L] of the observation group were lower than those of the control group, the accuracy rate of blood glucose related data (100.00% vs. 83.33%), satisfaction rate of the consultation (93.33% vs. 73.33%) and rate of reaching target blood glucose (88.33% vs. 70.00%) of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of nosocomial infections, diabetes mellitus diagnosis and treatment related expenses, or average hospitalization expenses between the two groups of patients (P>0.05).ConclusionDuring the epidemic of coronavirus disease 2019, the combined video consultation model of remote blood glucose virtual ward for patients with stroke and diabetes mellitus has a good application effect, which has certain feasibility and clinical promotion value.
ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effect of comprehensive nursing on cerebral infarction patients with high blood glucose. MethodsEighty cerebral infarction patients with high blood glucose treated between March 2012 and February 2013 were divided into observation group and control group with 40 patients in each. Patients in the control group received routine nursing care, while those in the observation group were given comprehensive nursing care. Then, we compared the two groups of patients in terms of their blood glucose control level, the recovery of neurological function and life quality. ResultsThe fasting glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, National Institude of Health stroke scale (NIHSS), and modified Edinburgh Scandinavican scoring scale (MESSS) scores of the two groups were not statistically different at the time of hospital admission (P>0.05). However, fasting blood sugar, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, NIHSS, and MESSS scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group before discharge (P<0.05). Life quality score of self-care, mental health, and social function before discharge in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionComprehensive nursing is helpful to control blood glucose in an ideal level range for cerebral infarction patients with hyperglycemia, which can also promote the recovery of neurological function and improve the life quality of patients.
