ABSTRACT
Objective@#To understand prevalence, control of hypertension and intake of sodium and potassium among residents aged 50-69 years old in Zhejiang Province.@*Methods@#A multi-stage random cluster sampling method was used to select 3 032 residents aged 50-69 years old in Zhejiang Province. The demographic characteristics, prevalence and control of hypertension were collected through a questionnaire survey, and physical measurement was also performed. The stratified random sampling method was used to detect the level of sodium and potassium in the 24 h urine of 676 subjects. The total amount of 24 h urinary sodium ≥102.55 mmol and the ratio of 24 h urinary sodium and potassium content ≥2 were defined as excessive.@*Results@#The prevalence of hypertension (95%CI) was 56.89% (54.39%-59.40%), and the awareness, treatment and control rate of hypertension were 58.25% (55.01%-61.49%), 45.37% (42.10%-48.65%) and 19.75% (17.01%-22.50%), respectively. 78.99% (n=534) of residents had excessive 24 h urinary sodium, and 95.41% (n=360) of residents had excessive ratio of 24 h urinary sodium and potassium.@*Conclusion@#The prevalence of hypertension in residents aged 50-69 years old in Zhejiang Province was at a high level, and the control of hypertension was not satisfactory in 2017. Most of residents have excessive level of sodium intake and the level of sodium and potassium intake was not balanced.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To evaluate the effect of lifestyle intervention among high risk group of chronic diseases in Shenzhen Futian district.@*Methods@#12 out of 115 communities were randomly selected in Futian district of Shenzhen city from October to November, 2013, and 1 923 cases were screened by multiple ways as high risk groups of chronic diseases. High risk groups of chronic diseases were divided into intervention group (1 338 cases, from five residential communities and three villages within city) and control group (585 cases, from four residential communities). The intervention group received group based health education activities as well as lifestyle intervention. The intervention group was provided with health management which was mainly lifestyle intervention. No intervention was implemented in the control group. All participants were followed up over two years. 1 563 participants (1 002 in intervention group and 561 in control group) were followed up from October to November, 2015. The changes of lifestyle related outcome indicators were analyzed to examine the effect of intervention.@*Results@#In the intervention group, 21.8% (219 persons) in high risk groups of chronic diseases became healthy individuals and 15.2% (152 persons) became patients with chronic diseases. In the control group, 9.6% (54 persons) in high risk groups of chronic diseases became healthy individuals and 20.5% (115 persons) became patients with chronic diseases. The outcome of the intervention group was better than that of the control group and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=-5.67, P<0.001). The proportion of people who knew how to correctly use of oil control pot in the intervention group increased from 61.00% (61/100) to 80.00% (280/350). The proportion of people who took oil control measures in the intervention group increased from 36.43% (365/1 002) to 56.99%(571/1 002). The changes in the intervention group were statistically different (P<0.001), but there was no statistical difference in the control group over the years (P>0.05). The proportion of people who knew how to correctly use of the salt restriction spoon increased from 81.95% (109/133) to 97.99% (342/349). The proportion of people who took salt control measures increased from 45.61% (457/1 002) to 62.67% (628/1 002) in the intervention group. The changes in the intervention group were statistically different (P<0.001). There was no statistical difference in the control group over the years (P>0.05).@*Conclusion@#The proportion of people who adopted healthy lifestyles has increased after 2 years intervention and the lifestyle intervention demonstrated good effect.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of body weight management on community residents with over-weight or obesity.Methods Chronic Disease Management Information System was used to establish personal health profile for 10 560 individuals with over-weight or obesity(4660 men and 5900 women,average age 58±12 years).Guide for individualized food intake,physical activity were given to these participants for an average of 9±6 months (range,1 to 32 months) with a following up.The change of body weight before and after the intervention was nalyzed.Statistical software(SPSS 12.0) wag used for the data analysis,the frequencies,rate and trend were analysised by the chi-square test,the means in quatitaitve data was analyzed by the paired t-test.P valuse for statistiacal significance is set for 0.05.Results A total of 9848 participants showed no change in body weight,although weight decrease or increase was seen in 499 and 213,respectively.Before and after the intervention,the proportion of weight remained,decrease or increase among over-weisht + central obesity individuals was 92.3%(6290/6817),5.9%(403/6817) and 1.8% (124/6817);95.5%(2888/3024),2.8%(84/3024) and 1.7%(52/3024) among the simple overweight or obesity group;and 93.2%(670/719),1.7%(12/719)and 5.1%(37/719) among the simple central obesity group,separately.Conclusions Body-weight management among central obesity individuals with over weight in communities is a more effective way of in terms of individule intervention than those individuals only with single over-weight,obesity or central obesity status.
