Objective To assess the predictive value of serum uric acid levels to the incident nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)in a cohort of healthy population. Methods A prospective cohort study of NAFLD incidence was conducted in Xinjiang province, from 2012 to 2014. A cohort study was performed on 2 207 subjects with no evidence of fatty liver disease by liver ultrasound and with no major risk factors for liver disease at baseline. All participants were interviewed to carry out the epidemiological questionnaire survey, physical examination, abdominal ultrasonography, as well as blood biochemistry measurements. The hazard ratios of NAFLD were compared among groups with different uric acid levels. All subjects were classified according to serum uric acid (within normal range grouped by quartile: Q1-Q4 group; above the normal range: Q5 group). Results NAFLD was newly diagnosed in 13.72% subjects within the 3-year period. The incidence of NAFLD was increased with elevated serum uric acid quartiles(P<0.01). In multivariate logistic regression, after adjustment for gender, age, race, metabolic syndrome and its components, OR for incident fatty liver in Q2 to Q5 of serum uric acid concentration as compared to Q1 were 2.509, 3.172, 3.392, and 4.041 respectively. Conclusion Elevated serum uric acid concentrations may predict NAFLD in the subjects for a regular health checkup.

Objective To study the effect of evidence-based nursing in patients with cerebral apoplexy in ICU by blind bedside spiral nasointestinal tube application.Methods To choose between September 2016 and September 2017 in our hospital ICU were 140 cases of patients with cerebral apoplexy as analysis object,randomly divided into two groups,two groups all use bedside blind spiral nose long intestinal tube technology,the control group using conventional nursing method for nursing,observation group using evidence-based nursing intervention,compared two groups of a success rate of catheter,accident to take off the tube (unscheduled decannulation rate),reflux hiccups,vomiting incidence of aspiration and patient satisfaction.Results The success rate of catheterization in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,and the incidence of accidental catheterization was lower than that in the control group.The incidence of reflux hiccup and vomiting aspiration was significantly lower than that in the control group,and the patient satisfaction was higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05).Conclusion For patients with cerebral apoplexy in the ICU bed of blind plug spiral nasal bowel technology combined evidence-based nursing intervention,clinical effect is remarkable,improve the success rate of catheter,reduces the surprise success rate of tube,unscheduled tube drawing number,reduces the incidence of reflux hiccups,vomiting aspiration,improve patient satisfaction and quality of life.
