[Nesidioblastosis in an adult with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a case report].

Adults-onset nesidioblastosis, as a differential diagnosis of organic hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia, is very rare and has been recognised as "noninsulinoma pancreatogenous hypoglycaemia syndrome (NIPHS)". Here we described an extremely rare case of NIPHS in an elderly type 2 diabetes mellitus with insulin therapy. A 84-year old male was diagnosed as type 2 diabetes six years ago and switched from an oral hypoglycemic drug to pro-mixed insulin treatment 3 years ago.

[Spontaneous pregnancy in a patient with lymphocytic hypophysitis].

Lymphocytic hypophysitis(LH) is a rare but increasingly recognized autoimmune endocrine condition that causes partial or total hypopituitarism and is often associated with peripartum young women. We here report a 28-year-old patient who had a spontaneous and uneventful pregnancy following LH that had been treated with transspenoidal surgery and followed by anti-inflammatory agent. The woman failed to lactate and developed frontal headaches 3 months after normal delivery of her first child 3 years ago.

The functional layered organosilica materials prepared with anion surfactant templates.

A novel strategy for the synthesis of layered organosilica is demonstrated. The ionic interaction between the anionic group of a surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulfate) and the cationic organic group of an organosilane (3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, ATMS) under acidic conditions was utilized to create a layered organosilica at room temperature. The inorganic part of the organosilica layer was an Si-O hexagonal sheet, and organofunctional groups were alternately arranged on both sides of the sheet.
