口服降糖药和胰岛素对不同临床分期糖尿病视网膜病变病情进程的影响

目的:探讨降糖药物和胰岛素控制血糖对不同临床分期糖尿病视网膜病变进程的影响。方法:收集糖尿病伴有视网膜病变的患者78例。采用随机表法,将糖尿病视网膜病变患者分为药物控制血糖组和胰岛素控制组,药物治疗组38例,胰岛素治疗组40例,使血糖达到控制标准。评价干预前后患者血清C肽、糖化血红蛋白、胰岛素抵抗指数,以及糖尿病视网膜病变分级。结果:药物控制组治疗前后2 h CP、以及糖化血红蛋白测定差异无统计学意义(p0.05)。胰岛素组治疗前后,血清空腹C肽、2 h CP差异有统计学意义(p0.05);而糖化血红蛋白、胰岛素抵抗指数差异无统计学意义(p0.05)。药物组治疗前Ⅰ期、Ⅱ期、Ⅲ期、Ⅳ期、Ⅴ期、Ⅵ期病例数和治疗后相比,差异有统计学意义(p0.05),视网膜病变分级程度明显增高。胰岛素组治疗前Ⅰ期、Ⅱ期、Ⅲ期、Ⅳ期、Ⅴ期、Ⅵ期病例数和治疗后相比,差异有统计学意义(p0.05)。药物组和胰岛素组间视网膜病变分级差异无统计学意义(p0.05);治疗后差异有统计学意义(p0.05)。结论:胰岛素能够提高糖尿病患者血清C肽,降低胰岛素抵抗,和药物控制血糖相比,能够延缓糖尿病视网膜病变的进展。     

A Trust‐Based Pact in Research Biobanks. From Theory to Practice

Traditional Informed Consent is becoming increasingly inadequate, especially in the context of research biobanks. How much information is needed by patients for their consent to be truly informed? How does the quality of the information they receive match up to the quality of the information they ought to receive? How can information be conveyed fairly about future, non‐predictable lines of research? To circumvent these difficulties, some scholars have proposed that current consent guidelines should be reassessed, with trust being used as a guiding principle instead of information. Here, we analyse one of these proposals, based on a Participation Pact, which is already being offered to patients at the Istituto Europeo di Oncologia, a comprehensive cancer hospital in Milan, Italy.     

布鲁氏茵病防治基础研究现状与展望

布鲁氏菌病（简称布病）是由布鲁氏菌属细菌侵入机体引起的人畜共患传染病．近年来,布病疫情在世界范围内呈反弹趋势,我国尤甚．进入2000年以后,人间布病在我国成为报告发病数上升速度最快的传染病之一,令我国布病防治形势严峻．为了明确我国布病防治工作的现状和需求、最新研究现状和研究动态以及面临的挑战和机遇,深入研讨分析我国布病防治研究中的重大科学和关键技术问题,凝练和提出今后我国布病防治研究发展中亟需关注、解决的重要基础科学问题,在国家自然科学基金委员会资助下,由中国疾病预防控制中心地方病控制中心主办,哈尔滨医科大学、中国疾病预防控制中心传染病预防控制所和内蒙古地方病防治研究中心共同协办,于2013年6月21日召开了由来自全国布病防治与基础研究领域专家共同参加的“布鲁氏菌病防治基础研究发展战略研讨会”．会议在我国布病疫情最重的省份内蒙古自治区呼和浩特市召开,中国疾病预防控制中心传染病预防控制所、军事医学科学院疾病预防控制所、石河子大学、中国兽医药品监察所等19家从事布病防治与基础研究的科研院所、高等院校、疾病防治机构的40余位专家参加了此次会议．现结合文献资料以及本次会议的内容,对国内外布病流行现状、研究进展,以及影响我国布病防治的亟需解决的科学问题和建议作一综述．     

基于文献计量分析的联合国可持续发展目标研究

厘清联合国可持续发展目标(SDGs)研究的现有进展和发展脉络,有助于深化SDGs研究和推动可持续发展。本文基于Web of Science核心合集数据库,运用可视化分析软件CiteSpace对SDGs相关文献进行文献计量分析,并绘制知识图谱。结果表明：(1)SDGs相关研究经历了萌芽阶段、快速增长阶段和稳定发展阶段,累计发文量呈稳步上升趋势,且涉及学科领域广泛。(2)英国、美国和中国等是SDGs的主要研究力量,发展中国家对SDGs研究的影响也持续增强。(3)环境问题、多方合作、SDGs全球治理与地方化等是SDGs研究的热点方向,而公民健康和推动可持续发展教育是SDGs未来研究的关注重点。鉴于文献计量分析结果,后续研究应重视SDGs评估、扩展指标数据源和制定可持续发展策略等。     

Development of M2BPGi: a novel fibrosis serum glyco-biomarker for chronic hepatitis/cirrhosis diagnostics

Many proteins in the living body are glycoproteins, which present glycans linked on their surface. Glycan structures reflect the degree of cell differentiation or canceration and are cell specific. These characteristics are advantageous in the development of various disease biomarkers. Glycoprotein-based biomarkers (glyco-biomarkers) are developed by utilizing the specific changes in the glycan structure on a glycoprotein secreted from the diseased cells of interest. Therefore, quantification of the altered glycan structures is the key to developing a new glyco-biomarker. Glycoscience is a relatively new area of molecular science, and recent advancement of glycotechnologies is remarkable. In the author’s institute, new glycoscience technologies have been designed to be efficiently utilized for the development of new diagnostic agents. This paper introduces a strategy for glyco-biomarker development, which was successfully applied in the development of Wisteria floribunda agglutinin-positive Mac-2 binding protein M2BPGi, a liver fibrosis marker now commercially available for clinical use.

Biological samples taken from Native American Ancestors are human remains under NAGPRA

In the United States, the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) provides a specific framework for the disposition of Native American Ancestral remains within its purview. However, samples such as a bone fragment, tooth, or other biological tissue taken from the remains of these Ancestors have been treated by institutions and researchers as independent of the individual from whom they were removed and used in destructive research such as paleogenomic and other archaeometric analyses without consultation, consent, and collaboration from Native American communities; are not cared for in keeping with the current best practices for Indigenous Ancestors; and are not likely to be repatriated to their communities. Here, we demonstrate that any biological samples removed from Ancestors who are covered under NAGPRA must also be handled according to the stipulations defined for “human remains” within the legislation. As such, we are not proposing a change to existing legislation, but rather best practices, specific to the context of the United States and NAGPRA, relating to the use of and care for biological samples taken from Native American Ancestors.
