ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the association between fatty liver and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the baseline-population of Jinchang cohort study.Methods Data from all the participants involved in the baseline-population of Jinchang cohort study was used,to compare the risks of T2DM in fatty liver and non fatty liver groups and to explore the interaction between family history or fatty liver of diabetes and the prevalence of T2DM.Results Among all the 46 861 participants,10 574 were diagnosed as having fatty liver (22.56％),with the standardized rate as 20.66％.Another 3 818 participants were diagnosed as having T2DM (8.15％) with standardized rate as 6.90％.The prevalence of T2DM increased in parallel with the increase of age (trendx2 =2 833.671,trend P＜ 0.001).The prevalence of T2DM in the fatty liver group was significantly higher than that in the non-fatty liver group,both in men or women and in the overall population.Compared with the group of non-fatty liver,the risks of T2DM in fatty liver group were seen 1.78 times higher in males,2.33 times in women and 2.10 times in the overall population,after adjustment for factors as age,levels of education,smoking,drinking,physical exercise,BMI,family history of diabetes and some metabolic indicators (pressure,TC,TG,uric acid,ALT,AST,gamma-glutamyl transferase).Date from the interaction model showed that fatty liver and family history of diabetes present a positive additive interaction on T2DM (RERI=1.18,95％CI:0.59-1.78;AP=0.24,95％CI:0.14-0.34;S=1.43,95％CI:1.21-1.69).Conclusions Fatty liver could significantly increase the risk of T2DM and a positive additive interaction was also observed between fatty liver and family history of diabetes on T2DM.It was important to strengthen the prevention program on T2DM,in order to effectively control the development of fatty liver.

ABSTRACT
Objective: To evaluate the relationship between the levels of serum uric acid (SUA) and prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) by Meta analysis. Methods: We searched the databases of Pub Med, Elsevier and Web of Science for internationally published cohort study for the relationship between SUA levels and CAD prevalence and conducted a general analysisby using Stata software. Results: A total of 11 cohort study including 463,918 subjects were enrolled in this study. For both male and female genders, increase SUA level was the risk factor for CAD occurrence (RR=1.11, 95% CI 1.00-1.24) and (RR=1.24, 95% CI 1.15-1.34). Dose-response Meta-analysis indicated that by 1 mg/dl SUA elevation, the risk of CAD occurrence would increase 4.8% in male and 12.4% in female, the risk in female gender was higher than male. Conclusion: SUA level has been closely related to CAD prevalence.
ABSTRACT
This study was aimed to evaluate the application of64-slice spiral CT in imaging anatomy of the normal optic canal. The optic canals of 100 healthy subjects were examined by 64-slice spiral CT,and the imaging measurement of the anatomy structures were performed by the multi-planar reconstruction. The longest and the shorzest walls of the optic canal were the medial wall and the inferior wall, respectively.Results indicate that the imaging anatomic measurement of the optic canal can be accurately and easily performed by means of multi-planar reconstruction of 64-slice spiral CT.
