Objective: To estimate the burden of disease (BOD) attributable to main risk factors of chronic diseases in Zhejiang Province in 2017, so as to provide the evidence for formulating the control strategy for chronic diseases and reducing BOD. Methods: The results of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 ( GBD 2017 ) were extracted to evaluate years of life lost due to premature mortality ( YLL ), years lived with disability ( YLD ) and disability-adjusted life years ( DALY ). The gender- and age-specific BOD attributable to main risk factors of chronic diseases, including the environment, metabolism and behaviors, in Zhejiang Province in 2017 was estimated and compared with those in 1990. Results: High DALY rates of chronic diseases were estimated attributable to tobacco use ( 2 807.08/105 ), unreasonable diet ( 2 724.72/105 ) and hypertension ( 1 878.69/105 ) in Zhejiang Province in 2017, and high DALY rates of chronic diseases were estimated in men attributable to tobacco use ( 4 764.77/105 ), unreasonable diet ( 3 297.00/105 ) and hypertension ( 2 076.92/105 ), while high DALY rates of chronic diseases were estimated in women attributable to unreasonable diet ( 2 117.16/105 ), hypertension ( 1 668.24/105 ) and hyperglycemia ( 1 100.53/105 ), respectively. Among individuals at ages of 15 to 49 years, high DALY rates of chronic diseases were estimated attributable to unreasonable diet ( 759.29/105 ), drug abuse ( 611.71/105 ) and tobacco use ( 605.37/105 ); among individuals at ages of 50 to 69 years, high DALY rates of chronic diseases were estimated attributable to tobacco use ( 5 528.37/105 ), unreasonable diet ( 4 628.18/105 ) and hypertension ( 2 757.78/105 ); and among individuals at ages of 70 years and older, high DALY rates of chronic diseases were estimated attributable to unreasonable diet ( 16 370.09/105 ), tobacco use ( 15 551.40/105 ) and hypertension ( 14 408.63/105 ). As compared to those in 1990, the DALY rates of chronic diseases attributable to high body mass index, alcohol use, hyperglycemia, high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and drug abuse increased by 108.23%, 48.59%, 23.17%, 17.64% and 6.06%, and the DALY rates of chronic diseases attributable to air pollution, occupational risks, unreasonable diet and impaired renal function reduced by 51.11%, 44.81%, 22.49% and 19.83%, and no significant alterations were detected in DALY rates of chronic diseases attributable to tobacco use or hypertension in 2017. Conclusions There was a high BOD of chronic diseases attributable to tobacco use, unreasonable diet and hypertension in Zhejiang Province in 2017, and the BOD of chronic diseases attributable to high body mass index, alcohol use and hyperglycemia appeared a tendency towards a rise in Zhejiang Province in 2017 relative to in 1990.

Objective To further clarify the pathogenesis of different types of Kaposi′s sarcoma (KS) by measuring the protein expressions of caspase-3 and E-cad in tumor tissues of Xinjiang Uygur patients with acqured immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-Kaposi′s sarcoma (KS) and classical KS.Methods From July 2011 to October 2014, 38 patients with KS at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University and Urumqi Infectious Disease Hospital were enrolled, among whom 28 were male and 10 were female, and all of them were uygur.Immunohistochemical and Western blot methods were used to detect the expressions of caspase-3 and E-cad proteins in 22 cases of AIDS-KS patients and 16 cases of classic KS.The quantitative data of normal distribution were analyzed by t test, while count data were compared with χ2 test with R × C table.Results KS lesions in patients with classic KS were confined to the skin, without mucosal, lymph node or visceral involvement.Lesions in AIDS-KS patients were not only confined to the skin and superficial lymph nodes, but also oral mucosa involved in 12 cases and internal organs involved in 7 cases.Liver and lung involvement was more common.The CD4+T lymphocyte count in patients with AIDS-KS was (200.8±166)/μL.All 15 AIDS cases with CD4+ T cell count less than 200/μL developed opportunistic infections.CD4+ T lymphocyte count of patients with classic KS was (562.52±222.66)/μL and the 16 patients with CD4+T lymphocyte count greater than 350/μL had no opportunistic infections.The results of immunohistochemistry showed that the positive expression rate of caspase-3 protein in KS tissues in patients with AIDS-KS was 68.2%, in patients with classic KS was 100.0%, with significant difference between two groups (χ2=7.37, P=0.01).The positive expression rate of E-cad protein in KS tissues in patients with AIDS-KS was 72.7%, in patients with classic KS was 100.0%, with significant difference between two groups (χ2=5.18, P=0.03).Western blotting showed that the gray value of caspase-3 in the KS tissue of patients with AIDS-KS was 0.55±0.36, and that in patients with classic KS was 0.86±0.56, with significant difference between two groups (t=-2.070, P<0.05).The gray value of E-cad in the KS tissue of patients with AIDS-KS was 0.54±0.41, and that in patients with classic KS was 0.85±0.45, with significant difference between two groups (t=-2.060,P<0.05).Conclusions There are differences in the protein expressions of caspase-3 and E-cad in tumor tissues of patients with AIDS-KS and classical KS in Xinjiang Uygur patients with Kaposi's sarcoma, which may correlate with a faster progression and a higher mortality rate for AIDS-KS.

Objective To access the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus ( T2DM) and its associated risk factors among adults with obesity in Zhejiang province. Methods The enrolled subjects were selected among local residents aged≥18 years with body mass index≥28 kg/m2 from 15 counties by multi stage stratified cluster random sampling from July to November, 2010. Each participant was required to attend complete questionnaire, physical examination, and testing overnight fasting blood specimen. Results A total of 1 351 residents were enrolled, including 613 males and 738 females. The prevalence of T2DM in adult population with obesity was 15. 03%, being 14. 03% in male, and 15. 85% in female;and that in urban area was 16. 64%, and in rural area was 13. 93%. Data from multivariable logistic regression showed that factors such as ageing (OR=1. 473, 95% CI 1. 243-1. 747), a family history of T2DM(OR=8. 945, 95% CI 5. 481-14. 598), staple food intake (OR=1. 185, 95% CI 1. 017-1. 380), triglyceride(≥1. 7 mmol/L, OR=1. 542, 95%CI 1. 066-2. 232) were risk factors of T2DM;while annual income(OR=0. 695, 95%CI 0. 544-0. 888), and milk intake(OR=0. 750, 95%CI 0. 567-0. 993) were shown as protective factors. Conclusion The prevalence of T2DM in adults with obesity was raised, ageing, a family history of T2DM, staple food intake, and dyslipidemia appeared to be major risk factors for T2DM.

Objective Assess and determine inactivation effect of heat,.ultraviolet (UV) light and three disinfectants against human infected H9N2 avian influenza virus in laboratory.Methods Suspension containing with 1010.67 TCID50/ml viral was exposed to 50 ℃,56 ℃,60 ℃,65 ℃ for 10 to 60 minutes and UV every 10 interval minutes from 10 to 80 minutes.The residual viruses after physical treatment were determined through half of tissue culture infective dose (TCID50) with MDCK cells and calculated by Reed-Muench method.Suspension with 1010.37EID50/ml quantitative virus was applied to equal volume of 10％ 84 sanitizer,75％ ethanol,1％ Virkon solution and incubated for 1 minute to 15 minutes respectively.The residual viral activity would be evaluated by inoculating in SPF chicken embryo.When the virus titer dropped by 4 lgTCID50/ml or virus in chicken embryo culture was observed to be negative,the physical and chemical treatment was considered effective.Results Human infected H9N2 avian influenza virus titer decreased by 4.02 lgTCID50 at 56 ℃ for 15 minutes,and after 30 minutes at 56 ℃ or 10 minutes at 60 ℃/65 ℃,the post-viral titer would decline below the detection level.20 minutes of UV irradiation would lead to a 5.67 log reduction,and after 70 minutes lighted,the virus titer fell below the detection level.Virus proliferation was not detected after 3 minutes of disinfection with 10％ 84 sanitizer,75％ ethanol and 1％ Virkon.Conclusions We should note that it is necessary to meet the specific condition to effectively inactivate the human infected H9N2 avian influenza virus.Our study provides an experimental basis for the biosafety operation of human infected H9N2 avian influenza virus.
