  • Function of Three-point Scoring System for the Clock Drawing Test in Differentiating between Alzheimer’s Disease and Vascular dementia in China

    【摘要】 目的 探讨3分法画钟测验(clock drawing test,CDT)对阿尔茨海默病患者(Alzheimer disease,AD)与血管性痴呆患者(vascular dementia,VD)的鉴别作用。 方法 收集四川大学华西医院神经内科门诊及住院部2009年9月-2010年6月就诊的认知功能障碍患者150例,进行病史采集及神经心理测试量表,筛选出AD患者57例及VD患者43例,共计纳入100例。在两者间进行CDT,分析两者间CDT有无差别、CDT与中文版简易智能量表(Chinese version of the mini-mental state examination,MMSE)及临床痴呆评定量表(clinical dementia rating scale,CDR)的相关性。 结果 AD患者及VD患者间CDT差异无统计学意义(Pgt;0.05);CDT与MMSE及CDR有相关性,Spearman相关系数分别为0.573和-0.542(Plt;0.001)。 结论 3分法画钟测验无法准确区分AD和VD,但对粗略判断AD及VD程度可能有一定效果。【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the differential function of the three-point scoring system for the clock drawing test (CDT) between Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VD).  Methods We analyzed the clinical data of 150 patients with cognitive impairment treated in the neurology and inpatient departments of our hospital from September 2009 to July 2010. Medical history of the subjects were collected. Through the assessment by neurological and psychological rating scale, we picked out 57 patients with AD and 43 with VD and tested them with CDT. The difference of CDT results between the two groups, and the correlation of CDT with Chinese version of the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and clinical dementia rating scale (CDR) were analyzed. Results There was no statistical difference of CDT results between AD and VD patients (Pgt;0.005). CDT had a correlations with MMSE and CDR, the Spearman correlation coefficient being 0.573 and -0.542 respectively (Plt;0.001). Conclusion The three-point scoring system for the clock drawing test cannot differentiate exactly between Alzheimer Disease and Vascular Dementia, but it can make a gross judgment of the degree of AD and VD.

  • Correlation of the Adiponectin Gene +45 in Exon 2 Polymorphisms and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Chinese Population: A Meta-Analysis

    Objective To evaluate the relationship between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the adiponectin gene +45 in exon 2 and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Chinese population via meta-analysis. Methods Databases including PubMed, Ovid, CBM, VIP, CNKI, and WanFang Data were searched from inception to June 2012, and the references of articles were also retrieved to collect case-control studies about the correlation of SNPs of the adiponectin gene +45 in exon 2 and T2DM in Chinese population. According to the self-designed inclusion and exclusion criteria, two reviewers screened articles, extracted data, and assessed the quality of the included studies independently. Then meta-analysis was performed STATA 11.0, with stability evaluated by both stratified analysis and sensitivity analysis. Moreover, Begg’s funnel plot and Egger’s method were used to assess the published bias of articles. Results 21 articles involving 22 studies were included (3272 T2DM cases and 2597 controls). There were significant differences between the two groups in dominant, recessive and addictive genetic models, and the pooled ORs (95% CI) were 1.36 (1.04, 1.78), 2.07 (1.55, 2.75), and 2.44 (1.59, 3.75), respectively. Conclusion The genetic single nucleotide polymorphisms of the adiponectin +45 in exon 2 is associated with type 2 diabetes in Chinese population. G allele of APM1 is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes, no matter in dominant, recessive or addictive genetic models.
