RESUMO
Objective To provide a scientific basis for prevention of Keshan disease by observing the changes of electrocardiogram in residents from Keshan disease area and urban residents in Ju County.Method In 2013,four countries (towns) of Sangyuan,Anzhuang,Qishan and Longshan were selected as the investigation sites across the Keshan disease areas in Ju County of Shandong Province,one village was selected in each country (town),no less than 200 people were chosen from each village.There were 36 residential communities in urban area in Ju County,one residential community was selected from 4 positions (east,west,south and north) in urban area,no less than 200 non-endemic urban residents were chosen from each residential community as control,the electrocardiogram examination was conducted.According to the Keshan Disease Diagnostic Standard (WS/T 210-2011),Keshan disease was diagnosed.Results Among the 964 inhabitants investigated in Keshan disease area,143 cases showed abnormal electrocardiogram and the detection rate was 14.83％;in the 926 cases of urban electrocardiogram,78 cases showed abnormal electrocardiogram,abnormal rate was 8.42％,the difference was statistically significant (x2 =18.80,P ＜ 0.01).There were 93 cases who met the 8 Keshan disease diagnostic criteria of abnormal electrocardiogram changes in the Keshan disease areas,abnormal rate was 9.65％;while there were 37 cases in urban residents,abnormal rate was 4.00％,the difference was statistically significant (x2 =23.55,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion These residents who have lived in Keshan disease endemic areas have a higher rate of abnormal electrocardiogram in Ju County of Shandong Province,they are still threatened by the causative factors of Keshan disease,and the authority should strengthen the prevention measures of Keshan disease.
RESUMO
Objective To assess the endemic trend of Kaschin-Beck disease in Tibet and to provide scientific basis for prevention and etiology study of the disease. Methods A questionnaire designed by us was administered to 905 participants who were from Lhundrop county, Medro Gongkar county of Lhasa municipality and Sangri county of Lhoka region in July to November, 2007. The Kashin-Beck disease diagnostic criteria(GB 16003-1995) was used for clinical diagnosis, and children 5 to 14 years old were taken right wrist X-ray film for diagnosis.Results One hundred and forty-four genealogies were recruited in this study. The interview and clinical examination were done to 905 persons, 208 persons were detected with Kaschin-Beck disease, and the detectable rate was 22.98%(208/905). The numbers of patients with degrees Ⅰ , Ⅱ and Ⅲ of Kaschin-Beck disease were 148, 43 and 17, respectively, with proportion of 71.15%(148/208), 20.67%(43/208) and 8.17%(17/208) out of all patients, respectively. The detectable rates of Kaschin-Beck disease were 29.73% (102/343) and 18.86%(106/562), respectively in Lhasa and Lhoka district, and the difference between this two districts was statistically significant(x2= 15.257, P＜ 0.01) . A total of 368 males and 537 females were recruited in this study, the detectable rates of male and female with Kaschin-Beck disease were 19.29% (71/368) and 25.51% (137/537), respectively,and the difference between male and female was statistically significant (x2 = 5.372, P ＜ 0.01) . In this study most patient were between 31 to 70 years old, the patients with degrees Ⅱ or Ⅲ of Kaschin-Beck disease were mostly above 40 years old. There were only 5 patients who were less and equal 20 years old in chinical diagnosis. The Xray positive detectable rate of children between 5 to 14 years old was 6.85% (10/146). Conclusions The condition of Kashin-Beck disease area is relatively stable in these two regions in recent years, and shows a downward trend. However, there are still positive child cases diagnosed by X-ray, which should arouse the attention of the relevant departments to further strengthen the implementation of control measures.
RESUMO
Objective To affirm and calssify the arsas with high water iodine and the endemic areas of indline excess goiter in Jiangsu Privince accirding to mational standard.Methods A cross section survey was condueted in 2005 at township level in Fenxian,Tongshan,Suining,Pizhou counties in Xuzhou municipal and Chuzhou district in Huai'an municipal in Jiangsu Province One sample of dringing well water from five directions in the five villages located dircetions of every township namely east west south north and central.was tested for its water iodine concentration.If the sample number sas less than 5 in one village,then all the well water would be tested Endemic stutas of iodine excess goiter was investigated in those townships whose menian water iodine comcentration was between 150 to 300 μg/L Then status was affirmed and reclassifed according.to National Criteria GB/T 19280-2003 Results In all 158 tawnships from the 6 counties the median of water iodine concentration in 79 townships were over 150 μg/L with 32 townships in the range of 150 to 300μg/L In those 32 townships 9 met the criteria of area of high water iodine 23 accorded with that of encemic areas of iosine excess goiter 16 had stopped the supply of non-iodzed salt in advace,but 16 newly detected areas were still served with iodized salt Four were 300 μg/L Conctusions Iodized salt intervention should be stopped in all townships with the problems of high water iodine and the endmic areas of iodine excess goter in order to prevent the possible hazards due to double intade.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze HRCT and thin-slice CT scan findings in 150 patients with pulmonary diffuse mild micronodule, and to find the features with the purpose of identifying random micronodule, peri-lymphatic micronodule, and centrilobular micronodule. Methods The useful features in 150 patients with pulmonary diffuse mild micronodule were translated into scores by means of discrimination method of large log-likelihood to identify the micronodular category. Results The accuracy of diagnosis was 94.0% for random micronodule, 76.0% for peri-lymphatic micronodule, and 90.0% for centrilobular micronodule. Conclusion HRCT and thin-slice CT scans were helpful in differential diagnosis of pulmonary diffuse mild micronodule. The discrimination method of large log-likelihood was propitious to diagnosis and differential diagnosis.
