RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the relationship between waist circumference and new-onset non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in non-obese patients with diabetes mellitus. Methods A total of 1 950 patients with diabetes mellitus, who determined fasting plasma glucose(FPG)≥7.0 mmol/L or who were using hypoglycemic drugs and FPG90 cm (E group, n=421). Multiple Logistic regression model was used to analyze influential factors of new-onset non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in non-obese patients with diabetes mellitus. Re?sults The average duration of follow-up was(47.24±5.13) months. The incidence rate was 11.85%(231/1 950) in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The incidence rates were 6.98%, 9.28%, 12.38%, 14.19%and 15.68%in A, B, C, D and E groups, and which were increased with the increased waist circumference (P<0.05). Results of multiple Logistic re?gression model analysis showed that compared with A group,OR values were 1.97 and 2.19 in D and E groups respectively (P<0.05). Conclusion Waist circumference≥85 cm was the risk factors of new-onset non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in non-obese patients with diabetes mellitus.
RESUMEN
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the effect of central obesity on new-onset cerebral infarction events among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in the Kailuan Group.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>This was a prospective cohort study. In a total of 101 510 employees who had been carried out a healthy examination in Kailuan Group from Jul. 2006 to Oct. 2007. 8 306 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients were selected. According to the baseline waist measurement, the observed population was divided into two groups-with central obesity or without. The total period of follow-up was 38-53 (48.05 ± 3.09) months.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>1) Mean age, BMI, the levels of SBP, DBP, pulse pressure, FPG, TC, LDL-C, uric acid significant increased in the central obesity group were higher than in the non-obese group (P < 0.01). 2) The incidence of new onset cerebral infarction in obese group was higher than that in the non-obese group (3.1% vs. 1.6%, 6.8%, P < 0.01; 3.3% vs. 1.7%, P < 0.01 in male respectively. 3) Results from the multiple logistic regression analysis showed that, compared with the non-obese group, the obese group had an increase of relative risk (RR) on new onset cerebral infarction events after adjustment on age, gender and other risk factors, with RR value as 2.07 (95%CI:1.39-3.09, P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with central obesity seemed to have increased the risk of new-onset cerebral infarction events.</p>

The medical consulting service, disease inquiry and seeking medical advice functions of 10 commonly available APP software in China for seeking medical advice, such asRapid Asking Doctors,Handholding Doc-tor Selection, andChunyu Handholding Doctors, were compared, which showed that although the functions of APP software in China for seeking medical advice could meet the requirement of people for seeking medical advice, importance should be further attached to their accurate and integrative information and establishment of profit-making model in order to promote the sustainable development of medical APP software.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of temperature-controlled radiofrequency ablation(TCRF)for treatment of elderly patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).Methods From March 2009 to June 2010,52 elderly patients with OSAHS confirmed by polysomnography(PSG)were treated with TCRF under local anesthesia.PSG monitoring was used preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively to determine the therapeutic effect.Apnea hyponea index (AHI),the lowest blood oxygen saturation(LSaO2),sleep apnea quality of life index(SAQLI)and the Epworth sleepiness scale(ESS)were assessed before and 6 months after operation.Results All these cases were reevaluated with PSG by the end of postoperative period lasted for 6 months.Thirteen cases were cured,18 cases were significantly improved,15 cases were improved,6 cases were not improved,with a total effective rate of 88.5%(46/52).No serious complications occurred.After operation,AHI decreased from (47.8 ± 13.7)times/h to(13.5 ± 7.3)times/h,LSaO2 increased from 0.677 ± 0.095 to 0.808 ± 0.056,SAQLI increased from(3.53 ± 0.43)scores to(5.01 ± 0.22)scores and ESS scores decreased from(14.93 ± 3.13)scores to(5.33 ± 2.52)scores,all above index had significant differences(P< 0.01).Conclusions TCRF for elderly patients with OSAHS is effective,and can improve their health-related quality of life.This treatment is convenient,simple,minimally invasive,repeatable,without serious complications,and can be especially suitable for surgical treatment of elderly patients with mild and moderate OSAHS.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the efficacy and related factors of Z-palatoplasty for treating severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).@*METHOD@#Thirty-two severe OSAHS patients with Friedman II and III oropharyngeal airway had Z-palatoplasty. Twenty-three patients with modified Mallampti Index (MMI) III-IV had coblation tongue channeling (CTC) simultaneously. The patients were followed up for one year post operatively.@*RESULT@#After operation, the apnea and hypopnea index (AHI) decreased from (54.74 +/- 20.38)/h to (22.72 +/- 18.36)/h; the lowest artery oxygen saturation (LSaO2 ) increased from (0.74 +/- 0.08) to (0.85 +/- 0.14); the Epworth sleep scale (ESS) decreased from (12.24 +/- 5.78) to (5.35 +/- 3.62); the percentage of time with oxyhemoglobin saturation below 0.90 (CT90) decreased from (31.48 +/- 20.15) to (15.73 +/- 12.29). All of the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.01). According to related criterion of chinese journal of otorhinolaryngology head and neck surgery in 2009, accumulative excellence rate was 71.9% and accumulative valid rate 84.4%. Six patients had temporary velopharyngeal insufficiency and returned to normal after 3 months.@*CONCLUSION@#Z-palatoplasty is an effective and safe surgical approach for OSAHS patients with Friedman II/III.
