Objective To explore the prevalence and epidemic characteristics of overweight, obesity, and central obesity in Shanghai Pudong New Area. Methods Multi-stage stratified random sampling method was conducted in Pudong New Area in 2013. Residents over 15 years old were randomly selected from 13 communities and participated in the cross-sectional study. A structured questionnaire was used to collect the information and physical examination, biochemical assays were also conducted. SPSS 20. 0 was used to analyze the results. Results The averagebodymassindexofparticipantswas(25.04±3.79)kg/m2andtheaveragewaistcircumferencewas(82.44± 9. 51) cm. The prevalences of overweight, obesity, and central obesity were 41. 67%, 17. 70%, and 31. 32%respectively. Standardized prevalences of overweight, obesity, and central obesity were 34. 39%, 16. 96%, and 25. 66% respectively, according to 2010 national age composition of population. Statistically significant sex differences were found among the prevalence of overweight, obesity, and central obesity groups(all P<0. 05). The prevalence of central obesity in female was raised by increasing age. Residents with hypertension, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and metabolic disorders had higher prevalences in overweight, obesity, and central obesity ( all P<0. 05). Conclusion The prevalences of overweight, obesity, and central obesity among the residents in Shanghai Pudong New Area were relatively high. Relevant risk factors should be explored to promote health education that may enhance people′s awareness of weight management.

Objective:To analyze the relationship of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) with diabetes mellitus in community residents aged ≥15 years in Pudong new district of Shanghai, and provide evidence for the prevention and treatment of diabetes mellitus.Methods:Using multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method, a total of 7 194 community residents aged ≥15 years were surveyed by using questionnaire, physical examination and laboratory tests in 2016. The relationship of BMI, waist circumference and waist-hip ratio with diabetes mellitus was analyzed by χ2 test, single factor linear correlation and logistic regression analyses. Results:In 2016, the crude prevalence rate of diabetes mellitus in Pudong was 27.37 %, which was 12.75 % after standardization. The prevalence rate of diabetes mellitus was slightly higher in men than in women and was increased with age. The levels of FPG, 2 h plasma glucose and HbA1c were positively correlated with BMI, WC and WHR. After adjusting the confounding factors, multiple logistic regression analysis showed that obesity ( OR=1.351, P<0.01), excessive waist circumference ( OR=1.255, P<0.01) and high WHR ( OR=1.291, P<0.01) were risk factors for diabetes mellitus. Conclusions:The increase of obesity, WC and WHR will increase the risk for diabetes mellitus. It is important to maintain healthy weight, especially the control of WC and WHR, reduce the accumulation of abdominal fat to reduce the risk for diabetes mellitus.

Objective To explore the relationship between baseline urinary protein levels and the onset of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods A questionnaire survey, blood and urine sample collection, physical examination, and pulmonary function test were conducted among permanent residents over 40 years old in Pudong New Area, Shanghai. The subjects were divided into four groups based on the baseline urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) quartiles (0~1.65 mg/g, 1.65~4.89 mg/g, 4.89~10.78 mg/g, and ≥10.78 mg/g). Cox regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between ACR levels and the incidence of COPD in middle-aged and elderly people. Results Among the 3 105 subjects, the median follow-up time was 3.212 years (P25~P75:3.102~3.473). 116 new cases of COPD were observed, with an incidence density of 10.423 per 1000 person-years. The incidence densities for COPD at four ACR levels were 7.922 per 1 000 person-years, 8.300 per 1 000 person-years , 11.419 per 1 000 person-years, and 13.843 per 1 000 person-years, respectively. Cox regression analysis revealed that as the ACR level increased, there was a rising trend in the incidence rate of COPD (χ2=4.396, P=0.036). After adjusting for gender, age, education level, occupational exposure to dust, history of childhood pneumonia, smoking, family history of COPD, central obesity, and hypertension, the risk of developing COPD was 2.499 times higher (95% CI: 1.460~4.276) for ACR levels ≥10.78 mg/g compared to the reference group with a baseline ACR level of 0~1.65 mg/g. Conclusion Elevated ACR levels in middle-aged and elderly population may increase the risk of COPD, and early monitoring of urine protein levels is beneficial for COPD prevention.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the intervention effect of meteorological risk forecasting service on acute onset and medical expenses of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) patients, and to provide scientific basis for the establishment of health management model for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) patients. MethodsStudy subjects were recruited from chronic obstructive pulmonary patients aged ≥40 in Pudong New Area. Propensity score matching method was used to determine the intervention group and the control group. The control group received regular health education and follow-up management, and the intervention group was provided with meteorological and environmental risk forecasting services through WeChat, mobile phone short message service(SMS)and telephone. Finally, a total of2 589 subjects were included in the analysis, including 1 300 in the intervention group and 1 289 in the control group. General demographic data, past medical history and family history of COPD, COPD related knowledge and practice survey, COPD related symptom assessment, acute onset, health service utilization and medical expenses before and after intervention were collected through questionnaire survey. The differences of acute attack, health service utilization and related medical expenses between the two groups before and after intervention were compared to evaluate the intervention effect. ResultsIn terms of acute attacks, after intervention, the incidence of acute attacks in the intervention group was lower than that before intervention(χ2=52.901, P<0.001), and the incidence of acute attacks in the groups with different intervention methods was lower than that before intervention (P<0.001). WeChat had the best effect, decreasing the incidence by 14.4%, followed by mobile phone SMS SMS decreasing by 12.3%. In terms of utilization of health services, the outpatient rate due to acute attack was lower in the intervention group after intervention than that before intervention (χ2=7.129, P=0.008), and the outpatient rate due to acute attack was lower in the subjects who received the forecast service through mobile phone SMS than that before intervention (χ2=4.675, P<0.001). In terms of medical expenses, there was no significant difference between control group and intervention group with different intervention methods before intervention (P>0.05). After intervention, the difference between the control group and the intervention group with different intervention methods was statistically significant (H=11.864, P<0.05). The results of multiple comparisons showed that compared with the control group, the average annual medical expenses of patients receiving mobile phone SMS and telephone forecasting services after intervention were lower than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). ConclusionMeteorological risk forecasting service can reduce the acute onset of COPD, reduce the rate of consultation and medical expenses due to acute onset, and provide scientific basis for the basic COPD health management model.
