Objective To explore the correlation between adiponectin/leptin(A/L) ratio and metabolic syndrome diagnosis in elderly men. Methods A total of 256 elderly men (≥60 years) were enrolled and divided into metabolic syndrome group(n= 109) and non metabolic syndrome group (n= 147). Serum levels of adiponectin and leptin were measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and the A/L ratio was calculated. Metabolic syndrome diagnosis is based on the definition provided by China Diabetes Society (CDS) in 2004. Results (1) In metabolic syndrome group versus non metabolic syndrome group, the serum levels of leptin and adiponectin were (10. 3±7.0) vs (6.8±4.9)μg/L and(7.8±5.6)g/L vs (9.5±5.9)g/L, and A/L ratio was 0. 94±0. 78 vs 2.15±2.13 respectively. (2) A/L ratio was positively correlated with high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and negatively correlated with body mass index (BMI), triacylglycerol (TG) and serum uric acid(P< 0. 001). (3) The higher value of A/L ratio, the lower possibility of metabolic syndrome. When the A/L ratio was more than 5, the incidence of metabolic syndrome was decreased to O(X2 =34. 891 ,P< 0.001). (4) The more components of metabolic abnormality, the lower value of A/L ratio(F= 10. 876,P<0. 001). Conclusions The A/L ratio may be useful in evaluating the extent of metabolic disorder and diagnosing metabolic syndrome in elderly men.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the stroke-related risk factors and carotid stenosis lesions of ≥40 year′s old Han and minority populations in a community in Beijing as well as the clinical value of carotid ultrasound screening. Methods An investigation of risk factors for stroke and the results of carotid artery ultrasound screening in 510 cases (≥40 years old) Han population and 243 minority population in a community in Minzu University of China in Beijing in April 2014 were analyzed. Results (1)The prevalence of hypertension of the Han population was significantly higher than that of the minority population (53. 5% [n=273] vs. 44. 4% [n=108]; χ2 =5. 43,P=0. 02). (2) The detected rate of carotid intima-media thickness ( IMT ) of the Han population was higher than that of the minority population (77. 5% [n=395] vs. 69. 1% [n=168]; χ2 =6. 03,P=0. 01). There was no significantly difference in the detected rates of carotid plaques and carotid artery stenosis between the two groups (χ2 =0. 56,1. 13 respectively,all P>0. 05). (3) Hypertension and smoking were the independent risk factors for carotid-intima thickening in Han population ( hypertension:OR,1. 851;95% CI 1. 213-2. 825; smoking:OR,2. 311;95% CI 1. 065-5. 016;all P<0. 05). Hyperlipidemia was an independent risk factor for carotid artery intima-media thickening in the minority population (OR,2. 586;95% CI 0. 952-8. 694,P<0. 01). Conclusion To investigate the risk factors for stroke in minority population in China are of particular importance for the prevention of carotid atherosclerotic disease. Carotid ultrasound examination is an important diagnostic technique for early detection of carotid atherosclerotic disease.
