China Pharmacy 2015;26(35):5012-5014
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of insulin use intervention and self management of blood glucose in the treat-ment of cystic fibrosis related diabetes. METHODS:In prospective cohort study,during Apr. 2007-Apr. 2013,1 295 CFRD inpa-tients selected from 14 hospitals of Shanghai were randomly divided into trial group (743 cases) and control group (552 cases). Control group maintained the dose of insulin,and trial group adjusted the dose of insulin every week and received patient education about self management of blood glucose. Blood glucose,blood lipid,quality of life,the ability of self management and other in-dex were detected,recorded and compared between 2 groups 1 year after intervention. RESULTS:1 year after intervention,fasting blood glucose,postprandial 2 h blood glucose and HbA1c of trial group were significantly lower than those of control gorup,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The time of blood glucose reaching the standard,the dose of insulin,the number of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia in trial group were all significantly shorter or lower than control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was statistically significant difference in the rate of standard blood glucose between trial group [93.5%(695/743)] and control group [59.6%(329/552)]. TG of trial group decreased while HDL increased,there was statistically significant difference between 2 groups (P<0.05). There was statistically significant difference in the quality of life score between trial group (196.24 ± 15.80) and control group(180.33±16.29)(P<0.05). The ability of self management in trial group was significantly higher than control group, with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Insulin use intervention and self management of blood glucose can control the level of blood glucose in CFRD patients,and improve the quality of life,medication compliance and therapeutic effect.

Objective To explore the relationship between pulse pressure (PP) and artery atherosclerosis in elders. Methods Totally 2358 eiders( > 60y) with the risk factors of artery atherosclerosis from Yangpu District DOI:10.3760/cma.j.issn.1008-6315.2009.09.006Central Hospital and 11 Community Health Service Centers were enrolled . The basic information includes age, sex, height,body mass, history of smoking, blood pressure, heart rate, history of coronary heart disease, ischemic stoke, chronic kidney diseases and diabetes,etc. The fasting blood sugar(FBS) ,blood lipid( total cholesterel,triglyceride, low-density lipreprotein, high-deusity liproprotein), serum creatinine, serum uric acid, serum alanine aminotransferase were measured. The elders were divided into two groups according to the PP( PP <60 mm Hg and PP≥60 mm Hg) to analyse the relationship between PP and age, BMI, SBP, DBP, HR, FBS, TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C, Cr, Ccr, UA, AST and history of coronary heart disease,ischemic stoke,chronic renal disease, and diabetes. Results Serum levels of FBS,TC,TG, LDL-C, UA in the group with PP less than 60 nun Hg were ( 5.6±1.7 ) mmol/L, (4.3±1.3 ) mmol/L, ( 1.5±1.2) mmol/L, ( 2.5±1.1 ) mmol/L, UA ( 246.8±131.2 ) μmol/L, that in the group with PP over or equal to 60 mm Hg group were (6.3±2.6) mmol/L, (4.8±1.2) mmol/L, ( 1.9±1.1 ) mmol/L, (2.9±1.2) mmol/L, (291.4±133.6) μmol/L, Serum levels of FBS, TC, TG, LDL-C, UA in the group with PP over 60 mm Hg were obviously elevated as compared with that in the group with PP lower than 60 ram Hg(P <0.01 ) ; The preven-lence rates of coronary heart disease ischemic stoke,chronic,renal disease, diabetes in the group with PP less than 60 mm Hg were 10.8% ,26.0%, 12.4%, 17.6%, that in the group with PP over or equal to 60 mm Hg group were 17.8% 、31.7% ,16.9% ,23.8% (P <0.01 ). The preveulence of coronary heart disease ischemic stoke,chronic re-nal disease, diabetes were significandy increased in the group with PP over or equal to 60 mm Hg group. Logistic re-gression analysis showed PP was closely related to FBS, BMI, age, LDL-C, UA, HDL-C ( β = 0.103,0.093.0.097, 0.089 ,0.076 , - 0.057, P < 0.05 ). Conclusions For those elders with the basis of artery atherosclerosis, high PP can inhance the development of artery atheresclerosis and also inhance the occurance and development of cardio-ce-rebrovascular and renal diseases.
3.Changes in the body shape and ergonomic compatibility for functional dimensions of desks and chairs for students in Harbin during 2010-2024
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(3):315-320
Objective:
To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs.
Methods:
Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test.
Results:
From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students.
Conclusion
Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.
