Objective To investigate the application value of the self-rated health measurement scale (SRHMS) in health check-up.Method A total of 8 083 health check-up receivers frow Fujian Province underwent SRHMS self-assessment,and the results of the assessment were analyzed by Chi-square test.Result The results of the survey showed that the total prevalence rate of chronic disease was 57.8% top five were stomach/duodenum diseases (14.57%),hypertension (11.58%),mammary gland disease (8.04%),abnormal blood lipid (7.16%) and prostate disease (6.54%).The proportion of these five kinds of illness was 43.38%.A positive correlation between the prevalence rate of chronic disease and age was found.The difference of the prevalence rate of chronic diseases between each age group was statistically significant (x2=863.816,P=0.000).Those with family history of chronic diseases accounted for 69.27% and those with history of present illness accounted for 57.83% (4 674/8 083).Bodily pain,dietary preferences,refined grain intake,lack of exercise,and alcohol drinking was found in 75.03%,60.15%,54.84%,46.07% and 41.50% participants.Conclusion The SRHMS could reflect the chronic disease incidence and unhealthy daily habits.

Objective To evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of progressive liver fibrosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).Methods A total of 2 054 subjects who underwent health check up and were diagnosed as NAFLD in 9 institutions were included in the study.Blood routine and biochemical findings were collected to calculate aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index (APRI).Subjects were divided into three groups according to diagnostic threshold of liver fibrosis:APRI <0.43 group,APRI 0.43-0.53 group and APRI ≥ 0.54 group.The correlation between APRI and biochemical variables was analyzed,and the risk factors of progressive fibrosis were also analyzed.Results Among 2 054 subjects (male/female 1 598/456) there were 61 cases with APRI ≥ 0.98 (2.97%,progressive fibrosis),318 with APRI ≥0.54 (15.48%),1 475 with APRI < 0.43 (71.81%),261 with APRI 0.43-0.53 (12.71%).Logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that TG (P =0.002,OR =1.095,95%CI:1.033-1.161),2 hPG(P =0.000,OR =1.103,95% CI:1.058-1.151,BUN(P =0.034,OR =1.215,95 % CI:1.014-1.454) were risk factors,and H DL-C (P =0.034,OR =0.353,95 % CI:O.135-0.924) was a protective factor for the progression of fibrosis.Conclusion The progressive fibrosis in patients with NAFLD is closely associated to blood glucose and lipid metabolism disorder.

Objective:To determine the effects of menopausal stage, age and other associated risk factors on symptoms of anxiety and depression among women in a community in Beijing.Methods:This study was a community-based prospective cohort. Participants who had transitioned through natural menopause, completed two or more depressive and anxiety symptoms evaluations, aged 35 to 64 years, and did not use hormone therapy were selected from the Peking Union Medical College Hospital aging longitudinal cohort of women in midlife to this analysis. The primary outcome variables were depressive and anxiety symptoms, assessed by hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). The generalized estimation equation was used in the statistical analysis.Results:Followed up from 2006 to 2014, 430 women and 2 533 HADS assessments were retained in the cohort. Depressive symptoms were more common than anxiety symptoms during all menopausal stages. The incidences of depressive and anxiety symptoms were 14.5% (19/191) and 3.1% (4/191) in the premenopausal -3 stage, respectively. The incidence increased in both menopausal transition and postmenopausal stage, with the highest incidence in the +1c stage [20.6% (155/751) and 8.8% (66/751), respectively]. However, these differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Depressive symptoms were highest in the ≥60-<65 age group [20.8% (74/355)], and anxiety symptoms were highest in the ≥50-<55 age group [8.2% (62/754)]; but there were no statistical significances between different age groups and depressive and anxiety symptoms (all P>0.05). Multivariable analysis showed that high body mass index, low education status, and poor health status were independently associated with depressive symptoms (all P<0.05), and that poor health status, trouble falling asleep, and early awakening were independently associated with anxiety symptoms (all P<0.01). Conclusions:Depressive and anxiety symptoms are more common during menopausal transition and postmenopausal stage compared with reproductive stage. Depressive symptoms are more common than anxiety symptoms. To screen and assess depressive and anxiety symptoms in perimenopausal women is essential, especially for women with high risk factors.
