RESUMO
Objective To investigate the association of lipoprotein lipase gene Hind Ⅲ and S447X polymorphisms with metabolic syndrome among Kazakh and Han ethnicities in Xinjiang.Methods PCR-RFLP was used to detect 802 subjects' lipoprotein lipase Hind Ⅲ and S447Xgenotypes (including 201 controls and 200 metabolic syndrome patients in Kazakh and Han ethnicities, respectively). Results (1) Frequencies of H + H-/H-H- genotype (32.50% vs.47.76%), H- allele( 18.00% vs. 28.86%), SX/XX genotype (8.00% vs. 22.39%) and X allele (4.00%vs. 12.44% ) for metabolic syndrome in Hah ethnicity were all significantly lower than those in controls (P＜ 0.01 ). (2) The frequencies of H + H-/H-H- genotype (33.50% vs. 46.80% ), H- allele (22.00% vs. 28.60%), SX/XX genotype (10.50% vs. 22.90%) and X allele (5.50% vs. 12.44% ) in patients with metabolic syndrome in Kazakh were all significantly lower than those for controls (P＜0.01). (3) The frequencies of lipoprotein lipase gene Hind Ⅲ and S447X genotypes and alleles in Kazakh were not significantly different from Han (all P＞0.05). (4)The levels of waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, triglyceride and FPG in H + H-/H-H- and SX/XX genotype were significantly lower than those in H + H + and SS genotype.HDL-C was significantly higher than that in H + H + and SS genotype (P＜0.05). (5) The frequencies of H + H + and SS genotype increased along with the increase in number of metabolic syndrome component. Conclusion The lipoprotein lipase gene Hind Ⅲ and S447X polymorphisms were associated with metabolic syndrome risk in Kazakh, and H + H-/H-H- genotype, H- allele, SX/XX genotype and X allele might have served as protective factors of metabolic syndrome. H + H-/H-H- and SX/XX genotype seemed to have had beneficial effects for all the metabolic syndrome components, and the frequencies of H + H + and SS genotype were increasing along with the increase of number in the metabolic syndrome components.
RESUMO
Objective To understand the changing trends of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps from 1998 to 2008.Methods A stratified-cluster random sampling based cross-sectional NCDs survey was carried out in 2008,and using the data of NCDs from the health service surveys in 1998 and 2004,in Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps.The prevalence rate of NCDs was standardization according to age proportion of the population being surveyed in 1998.Results In 1998,2004 and 2008,the prevalence rates of NCDs in Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps were 17.26%,25.61%,24.85% while the Standardized rates of NCDs were 17.26%,23.54% and 20.49% respectively.The prevalence rates of NCDs were statistically significant different in 35-,45-,55- and over 65 age groups in 1998,2004 and 2008 which showed an consecutive upward trend.The prevalence rates of hypertension,diabetes,cerebrovascular disease,coronary heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease increased significantly from 1998 to 2008.The prevalence rate of hypertensive disease among 25- age group,diabetes among 35- age group,cerebrovascular disease and coronary heart disease among 45- age groups showed an increasing trend.Conclusion Cardiovascular and cerebrovaseular diseases,together with diabetes were the fastest increasing ones over the past 10 years and becoming the major diseases,making the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps an aging population.NCDs should be prioritized in the health development plan.Targeted health education should be carried out in the whole population,together with other interventions as well as management programs on chronic diseases to reduce the prevalence of NCDs.
