  • Efficacy of Combination of Pancreatic Kinionogenase and Mecobalamin on Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

    ObjectiveTo study the effect of combined treatment using pancreatic kinionogenase enteric-coated tab and mecobalamin injection on diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) patients. MethodsWe collected 84 subjects with DPN who received treatment from January 2012 to December 2012 in our hospital, and we randomly divided them into treatment group (42 subjects, using pancreatic kinionogenase enteric-coated tab and methylcobalamin injection) and control group (42 subjects, using mecobalamine only). Subjects in the treatment group were given oral pancreatic kininogenase at 120 unit/times and 3 times/day, and methylcobalamin intravenous injection at 1 mg/day for 14 days. Subjects in the control group were only given methylcobalamin intravenous injection at 1 mg/day for 14 days. ResultsIn the treatment group, 22 subjects showed excellent, 19 subjects effective and 1 subject ineffective outcome. In the control group, 8 subjects showed excellent, 22 effective and 12 ineffective outcome. The difference between the two groups is statistically significant (P<0.01). Compared with no treatment, the nerve conduction velocity in both the two groups has been improved. The improvement in the treatment group is significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.01), and all of them had no obvious adverse reaction during the treatment. ConclusionThe combined treatment using pancreatic kinionogenase enteric-coated tab and methylcobalamin injection on DPN is better than using methylcobalamin only.

  • Study on the Relationship between Thyroid Stimulating Hormone and Lipid Profiles in Patients with Subclinical Hypothyroidism

    ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and the blood lipid level in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH). MethodsWe carried out a retrospective analysis on the clinical data of 264 patients with their first diagnosis of subclinical hypothyroidism without treatment from 2010 January to 2014 January. A total of 288 healthy controls were chosen from communities. The patients were groups based on TSH≥10.0 mU/L and 3.6 mU/L≤ TSH< 10.0 mU/L. We investigated the relationship between TSH and the level of blood lipids by analyzing liver and renal function, blood lipids, thyroid function, and thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO-Ab) in the patients. ResultsTriglyceride (TG) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were not significantly different among the three groups (P>0.05). Total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels of the group with TSH≥10 mU/L were respectively (5.93±1.12) and (3.82±1.11) mmol/L, which were significantly higher than those in the controls[(4.43±1.12) and (2.66±0.43) mmol/L] (P<0.05). TC, TG and LDL-C levels of the group with 3.6 mU/L≤ TSH< 10.0 mU/L were higher than the controls, but the differences were not significant (P>0.05). After thyroid hormone replacement therapy within 12 weeks, TG, LDL-C, and TC levels of TPO-Ab positive patients with subclinical hypothyroidism (n=112) were respectively (4.62±1.03), (2.97±0.52), and (1.17±0.62) mmol/L, which were significantly lower than those levels before treatment[(5.43±1.18), (3.62±0.58), and (2.03±0.71) mmol/L] (P<0.05). ConclusionThe disorder of lipid metabolism exists in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism. Especially, the level of TSH greater than or equal to 10 mU/L is a high risk factor for dyslipidemia. In TPO-Ab positive patients, therapy of thyroid hormone replacement can effectively improve the blood lipid abnormalities in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism, and it may be an effective measure to improve the disorder of lipid metabolism economically and effectively.
