The mechanisms of increased growth of small piglets following split weaning were studied using a total of 10 sows and 100 piglets. Sows and their litters were allocated to a treatment group (piglets split-weaned) or control group (no piglets split-weaned). At day 22 of lactation, piglets in each litter were classified as either 'heavy' or 'light', with equal numbers in each group. 'Heavy' piglets were removed from sows at day 22 (s.e.m. 0.17) in split-weaned litters while 'light' piglets remained with their mothers for an extra week. At 29.5 (s.e.m. 0.21) days of age, sows from both split-weaned and control litters were weaned. Milk consumption was estimated between days 16 and 19 and on day 24 of lactation by weighing piglets before and after sucking. During milk letdown, the teats that piglets sucked from were noted. A video recorder was used to determine the frequency of natural sucklings, the proportion of unsuccessful sucklings, and the time taken for piglets to consume milk during ejection, over a 16-h period before and after split weaning. 'Light' piglets in split-weaned litters grew 61% faster (P < 0.001) than their counterparts in control litters and were 15% heavier (P < 0.01) at weaning. This was explained by a 49% increase in milk intake (64 v. 43 g/sucking, P 5 0.001). Increased milk intake was due to multiple teat swapping with an associated longer duration of sucking during letdown. 'Heavy' piglets weaned at 22 days were lighter at 29 days than their counterparts in control litters (P < 0.01). Gains in growth made by 'light' piglets in split-weaned sows over their counterparts in control litters had disappeared by the time pigs were 9 weeks old, and piglets classed as 'heavy' at day 22 of lactation remained heavier ( P < 0.001) at 62 days of age irrespective of treatment.

Objective. To evaluate the efficacy of Abelmoschus manihot in treating type 2 diabetic nonproliferative retinopathy. Methods. It was a randomized controlled clinical trial. The recruited eighty subjects with type 2 diabetic nonproliferative retinopathy were randomly divided into treatment group and control group. The two groups received basic treatments including control of blood glucose, blood pressure and blood lipid, management of diet, exercise and health education, and monitoring of relevant indicators. Additionally, the treatment group was given oral administration of Abelmoschus manihot. All subjects were followed up on monthly basis for consecutive six months. The related parameters including diabetic retinopathy (DR) incidence rates, “Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study” (ETDRS) vision scores, retinal thicknesses in macular region, serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels, and biochemical indicators of both groups before and after treatment were accurately collected and statistically analyzed. Results. There were no significant differences of DR severity levels, ETDRS vision scores, macular retinal thicknesses such as cube average thickness (CAT), central subfield thickness (CST), and cube volume (CV), and serum VEGF levels between two groups before treatment. Meanwhile, there were no significant differences of demographic characteristics, case terminations, blood glucose, blood lipid, blood pressure, biochemical indicators of hepatorenal function, hypoglycemic drugs, hypotensive drugs, and other basic treatments between two groups during six months treatment. The present study suggested that the remission rate of DR and the ETDRS vision score in the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group (remission rate: 25.4% vs 9.3%, P=0.01; ETDRS score: 78 (72, 82) vs 72 (67, 80), P=0.0002) while the progression rate of DR in the treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control group (progression rate: 4.2% vs 18.7%, P=0.007) after six months treatment. In addition, the CAT, CST, CV, and serum VEGF levels of the treatment group were significantly improved after the treatment (CAT: 286 (278, 302) vs 282 (270, 295) μm, P<0.0001; CST: 251 (239, 274) vs 248 (235, 265) μm, P<0.0001; CV: 10.3 (10.0, 10.9) vs 10.1 (9.7, 10.6) mm3, P<0.0001; VEGF: 0.21 (0.14, 0.58) vs 0.16 (0.10, 0.23) ng/ml, P=0.0026), while there were no significant differences of the control group before and after treatment (CAT: 287 (279, 294) vs 287 (279, 295) μm, P=0.27; CST: 250 (240, 266) vs 252 (238, 266) μm, P=0.72; CV: 10.4 (10.1, 10.6) vs 10.4 (10.1, 10.7) mm3, P=0.53; VEGF: 0.21 (0.13, 0.66) vs 0.23 (0.12, 0.64) ng/ml, P=0.85). Conclusion. The study offered the novel evidence for the therapeutic effect of Abelmoschus manihot on type 2 diabetic nonproliferative retinopathy, which was associated with improved VEGF.

ABSTRACT Introduction: In the last decades, unhealthy habits, such as low levels of physical activity and poor diet, have increased. Consequently, the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and mortality has increased significantly among adults. However, it is known that regular physical exercises help to improve health outcomes. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyze the effects of eight years of regular participation in an exercise program on blood pressure and mortality in the Brazilian public health system. Methods: The sample consisted of 34 participants with hypertension and/or type II diabetes who were followed up for eight years. They were paired by age, body mass index and chronic disease in two groups: exercise and control. During the follow-up period, medical records were used to assess systolic and diastolic blood pressure, as well as number of medical appointments and the occurrence of deaths. Results: In the follow-up period, five participants died in the control group and none in the exercise group. The Kaplan-Meier analysis identified 29.4% lower mortality among active participants (Fisher's exact test with p = 0.044). The number of medical appointments and the values of diastolic blood pressure were significantly lower for active participants. Conclusion: After a follow-up of eight years, participants in the exercise group attended fewer medical appointments, had better blood pressure control and a lower occurrence of deaths.
