Objective To analyze the correlation of traditional Chinese medical constitution types withcardiovascular risk factors in community hypertension patients. Methods We defined the constitution types of 1108 community hypertension patients, created personal health archives and provided routine examination for the subjects. After that, we input and analyzed the relevant data and results by computer. Results In 1108 cases of hypertension patients, 229 (20.67%) were defined as harmony physique, 879 (79.33%) as biased physique. In patients with biased physique, phlegm-dampness physique accounted for 25.54% (283 cases) , and then came yin deficiency physique and Qi deficiency physique, which accounted for 15.16% (168 cases) and 13.18% (146 cases) , respectively. The biased physique was dominated by single biased physique with a total of 590 cases ( 67.12%) , but the complex physique was also in large quantity, with a total of 289 cases ( 32.88%) . The complex physique consisting of two kinds of single physique was commonly seen in the patients with complex physique, accounting for 15.70%. The complex physique consisting of more kinds of single physique had less percentage. Phlegm-dampness physique was a kind of physique involving the most cardiovascular risk factors. Patients with phlegm-dampness physique had higher incidence of overweight, abnormal lipid level, family history of cardiovascular disease, lack of physical exercise and electrocardiographic abnormality, and the difference was statistically significant compared with other physique types ( P<0.05 or P<0.01) . Conclusion Phlegm-dampness, yin deficiency and Qi deficiency physique are the three commonly-seen constitution types in hypertension patients. Phlegm-dampness physique is the most commonly-seen biased physique and is also a kind of physique involving the most cardiovascular risk factors. Prevention and management in consideration with the constitution characteristics and cardiovascular risk factors will be a new prospective method for the treatment of hypertension patients in community.

Objective To provide effective reference for quality analysis of the chemical composition and extraction of astragalus separation process by comparing the extract of astragalus and it’s IR spectra. Methods The saponins and flavonoids in astragalus were firstly extracted by the method of circumfluence with ethanol as solvent and the residue of ethanol-extraction was then used to extract polysaccharides by distilled water. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (IR) combined with second derivative infrared spectroscopy was applied to quickly identify astragalus herbs powder, water extraction of astragalus, astragalus alcohol extraction and water extraction of the residue of ethanol-extraction. Results The powder and 70% ethanol extract, 80% ethanol extract were around at 1 735 cm-1 (carbonyl stretching vibration absorption peak) has a weak, broad absorption, while the absorption peak was less obvious in boiling water extraction. So the maln components of astragalus water extraction are polysaccharides and also contaln a small amount of water-insoluble flavonoids. Alcohol extraction malnly contalns saponins and flavonoids, and flavonoid extract volume increases with increasing alcohol concentration in a certaln range.Conclusion This method can be a quick and easy identification for astragalus and it’s extraction for its chemical composition class, and provide the basis for further research quality.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the difference in conjugated bile acids in the gallbladder bile between gallbladder cholesterol polyps and adenomatous polyps patients, and screen the differential diagnosis-markers for polypoid lesions of gallbladder (PLG).

METHODSFrom January to June 2013, the 20 cholesterol polyps patients, 10 adenomatous polyps patients and 10 patients without gallbladder diseases were enrolled. High performance liquid chromatography assay with ultraviolet detection was used to test 8 conjugated bile acids in gallbladder bile.

RESULTSThe 8 conjugated bile acids were completely analyzed in 10 minutes, and the assay was liner in the range 8-500 µg/ml. The correlation coeffients for linear regression was from 0.9996-0.9999 and the detection limits ranged from 3.90-7.81 µg/ml. The level of taurocholic acid (TCA) in adenomatous polyps group ((75 ± 51) µg/ml) was significantly lower than that in the cholesterol polyps ((228 ± 206) µg/ml, q = 3.120, P = 0.014) and control groups ((104 ± 40) µg/ml, q = 2.950, P = 0.027). The level of taurochenodeoxycholic acid (TCDCA) in cholesterol polyps group ((604 ± 444) µg/ml) was significantly higher than that in the adenomatous polyps ((310 ± 182) µg/ml, q = 2.560, P = 0.048) and control groups ((308 ± 21) µg/ml, q = 2.970, P = 0.023).

CONCLUSIONSThe levels of TCA and TCDCA in the gallbladder biles in cholesterol polyps patients were higher than those in adenomatous polyps patients, which may be the differential diagnosis-markers for PLG.

Objective: To evaluate the performance of high risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) DNA test for triage ASC-US in Chinese population. Methods: The study population was from Jiyuan city in Henan Province where a cervical cancer screening cohort (4 026 women) was set up from April to July in 2017. Women with ASC-US and complete recall information of colposcope were selected as the study objects. Self-designed questionnaire was used to survey the general information and medical history of cervical cancer, thencervical cytological speciments were collected for cytodiagnosis and HPV DNA test, followed by colposcopy, lesion biopsy and histology diagnose. The diagnosis of histology was used as the gold standard. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) as well as corresponding 95% confidential interval (CI) were calculated. Results: The average age of the included 393 women with ASC-US were (50.81±9.22) years old. The positivity of high risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV), HPV16 and HPV18 were 35.6%, 10.69% and 2.80%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV for HR-HPV to detect CIN2+ were 84.38% (68.25%-93.14%), 68.70% (63.74%-73.26%), 19.29% (13.61%-26.61%) and 98.02% (95.46%-99.15%). When compared with HR-HPV, HPV16/18 had a lower sensitivity (59.38% (42.26%-74.48%)) and a higher specificity(91.14% (87.75%-93.65%)), the PPV and NPV were 59.38% (25.32%-50.98%) and 91.14% (93.61%-97.77%). Conclusion It was more effective for HR-HPV to triage ASC-US than HPV16/18. In order to improve the effect of HPV16/18, it should include more HR-HPV types which were more prevalent in Chinese population.

Objective To explore the feasibility of reducing radiation dose of CT colonography (CTC) while preserving image quality using the third-generation dual-source CT at 70 kV tube voltage with advanced modeled iterative reconstruction (ADMIRE). Methods This prospective study consecutively included 53 patients. All patients underwent CTC at 120 kV in supine position with filtered back projection reconstruction and at 70 kV in prone position with ADMIRE with the same scan range. Radiation dose and image quality were compared between these two protocols. Results CT dose index volume,dose-length product,and effective dose of 70 kV were (1.47±0.23)mGy,(68.85±13.82)mGy·cm,and (1.03±0.21)mSv,respectively,which were significantly lower than 120 kV mode [(2.96±0.61)mGy (t=25.356,P=0.000),(136.97±32.77)mGy·cm (t=22.246,P=0.000),and (2.05±0.49)mSv (t=22.293,P=0.000)]. Signal to noise ratio of 70 kV with ADMIRE was 3.60±0.58,which was obviously higher than that of 120 kV as 2.34±0.47 (t=-18.036,P=0.000). Noise of 70 kV with ADMIRE was (11.81±1.93)HU,which was obviously lower than that of 120 kV as (14.39±2.57)HU (t=7.856,P=0.000). The κ value of two radiologists' overall subjective image score was 0.843 (P=0.000). For 2D images,the noise score of 70 kV with ADMIRE was significantly lower (Z=325.000,P=0.000) and the overall image quality was significantly higher (Z=78.000,P=0.001) compared with 120 kV;however,the sharpness had no significant difference. All scores ranged from 4 to 5. For 3D virtual endoscopy,the overall image quality of 70 kV with ADMIRE and 120 kV was not significantly different (Z=4.000,P=0.059),and all scores ranged from 4 to 5. Conclusion CTC at 70 kV tube voltage combined with ADMIRE can remarkably reduce the radiation dose while maintaining imaging quality than 120 kV at third-generation dual-source CT.
