SdLDL-C levels of different populations and its correlation with lipid components / 国际检验医学杂志

Objective To survey small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(sdLDL-C)distribution among different popula-tions,and analyze its relationship with lipid component.Methods 986 cases of people who underwent medical examination in the hospital were recruited in the study.There were 654 people with normal concentrations of serum blood lipids(normal blood lipids group),according to sex and age they were divided into groups.The people whose serum lipids concentrations increased above the normal range were divided into TG increasing group,LDL-C increasing group and joint increasing group according to the type of lip-ids componet increased.Serum sdLDL-C,LDL-C,TG,TC,HDL-C,ApoAⅠ and ApoB were determind in the people mentioned a-bove,and the correlation between sdLDL-C and TG,TC,HDL-C,ApoAⅠ,ApoB concentrations were analyzed.Results SdLDL-C began to decline after the age of 70,the difference was statistically significant(P <0.05 );the ensemble average of the males was higher than that of females,the difference was statistically significant(P <0.05).The serum sdLDL-C cocentrations of all the serum lipis increasing groups were significantly higher than those of normal blood lipids group,the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05 ).SdLDL-C concentrations were positively correlated with TC,TG,ApoB(r =0.254,0.589,0.302),and was negative correlated with HDL-C and ApoA Ⅰ (r = - 0.421,- 0.275,- 0.311 ).Conclusion There was a positive correlation between sdLDL-C and TC,TG,ApoB,and sdLDL-C was negatively correlated with HDL-C,ApoAⅠ,which can accurately reflect the overall status of lipid metabolism.

Comparison of the risk factors for asthma in children between urban and rural areas in Fuzhou City / 中华儿科杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the prevalence and the different risk factors for asthma in children between urban and rural areas in Fuzhou, Fujian province.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The epidemiological survey of asthma in 0-14 years old children was conducted from October 2009 to October 2010 between Fuzhou urban and rural areas in Fujian province. The investigation subjects were selected in urban and rural areas by phased stratified random cluster sampling. The 2010 third national epidemiological survey questionnaire of children with asthma was used for screening for possible patients. Diagnosis of asthma was confirmed by physical examination. The children with asthma were designated as the positive cases, while non asthmatic children who were age, gender, ethnic, and living environment matched with asthmatic patients were designated as negative control. Comparison of the prevalence of asthma in children between Fuzhou urban and rural areas was performed. The influencing factors of asthma were analyzed and screened by the regression equation model of two element Logistic regression.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Totally 12 235 questionnaires of children with asthma and allergic disease screening were issued and 11 738 questionnaire were sent back (6 221 were male and 5 517 were female). The return rate was 95.9% in urban Fuzhou; 648 children were diagnosed as asthma. The prevalence of asthma in male was 6.48% and female children was 4.44% (comparison of the prevalence of gender χ(2) = 23.267, P < 0.001) in urban areas . A total of 6 000 questionnaires of children with asthma and allergic disease screening were sent out and 5 860 were responded (male children 3 228, female children 2 632). The recovery rate was 97.7% in rural Fuzhou; 135 children with asthma was diagnosed. The prevalence of asthma in male was 2.73%and female children and was 1.79%. Adding protein supplement before 6 months (OR = 1.908, 95%CI:1.233-2.959), the use of antibiotics in the treatment of asthma (OR = 14.541, 95%CI:8.920-23.705), furniture materials (non wood) (OR = 2.432, 95%CI:1.563-3.785) were the main risk factors of children with asthma in urban. Adding protein supplement before 6 months(OR = 3.021, 95%CI:1.357-6.711), the use of antibiotics in the treatment of asthma(OR = 14.784, 95%CI:3.842-56.885), the use of coal as fuel (OR = 63.339, 95% CI: 7.993-501.943), domesticated livestock (OR = 13.659, 95% CI:1.342-139.068), the family smoking before and after birth (OR = 6.226, 95%CI:2.674-14.495) and chemical fiber pillow (OR = 3.638, 95%CI:1.241-10.666) were the main risk factors of children with asthma in rural areas.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The prevalence of children with asthma in urban areas was higher than that in rural areas. The prevalence of asthma in male children was higher than in female children. Adding protein food supplement before 6 months, the use of antibiotics and non solid wood furniture material were the main risk factors in children with asthma in urban areas. Adding protein supplement before 6 months, the use of antibiotics, domesticated livestock, the use of coal as fuel and the family smoking before and after birth were the main risk factor of asthma in children in rural areas.</p>

Study on the correlation between oxidative stress and diabetic complications / 中国基层医药

Objective To explore the correlation between oxidative stress and the occurrence and progression of diabetic complications in the patients with diabetes. Methods The content of 24 h urinary 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine (8-OhdG) in diabetes mellitus (DM) group, diabetic nephropathy (DN) group, diabetic retinopathy (DR)group, diabetic foot(DF) group, diabetic neuropathy (DNP) group and control group were detected, and analyzed. Results The content of 24 h 8-OhdG in DM group, DN group, DR group, DF group, DNP group were significantly higher than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.01), and that in DN group, DR group, DF group, DNP group were significantly higher than that in DM group(P ＜ 0. 01), but the content of 24 h 8-OhdG among DN group, DR group, DF group and DNP group was not statistically signiticant(P ＞0. 05). Conclusion The correlation between the occurrence of diabetic and its complications oxidative stress and the Ievel of oxidative stress in the body was positive related.

Clinical significance of detecting NT-proBNP level in stroke patients / 中国基层医药

Objective To investigate the stroke patients with heart failure and early laboratory diagnosis of NT-proBNP testing clinical significance. Methods 212 eases of cerebral infarction patients,63 eases of patients with cerebral hemorrhege,38 cases of healthy persons,were used to detect the plasma NT-proBNP level. Results Plasma NT-proBNP level was higher than the value of early warning of heart failure in patients with cerebral infarction in 32 cases,the positive rate was 15.1% ;cerebral hemorrhage in 8 eases,the positive rate was 12.70% ,compared with the centrol group was statistically significant. Conclusion Detection of NT-proBNP in stroke patients has important clini-cal significance on the prevention and treatment of complicated heart failure.
