Abstract: Objective　To explore the relationship between body mass index (BMI), waist-hip ratio (WHR) and the risk of gout in Urumqi. Methods　A total of 516 male patients with gout in a third-class hospital in Urumqi from 2015 to 2019 were randomly selected as the gout group and 516 male healthy subjects in the same hospital as the control group. The relevant blood biochemical indexes were examined and analyzed. Blood pressure, waist circumference and hip circumference were measured. Body mass index and waist-to-hip ratio were calculated. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between overweight / obesity, waist-to-hip ratio and the risk of gout. The test level is α = 0.05. Results　Uric acid, glucose, urea nitrogen, creatinine, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein, systolic blood pressure, weight and waist circumference in gout group were higher than those in control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05); There were no significant differences in age, height and diastolic blood pressure between the two groups (P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between BMI and WHR and the occurrence of gout (r=0.272, 0.345, P<0.05). There were significant differences in BMI, WHR and waist circumference between the gout group and the control group（χ2= 55.338, 54.928, 54.153, P<0.05）. After adjusting for age, aerobic exercise and other confounding factors, the results of multi-factor unconditional Logistic regression analysis showed that the odds ratio (OR) of gout in patients with BMI of 24.00-27.99 kg/m2 and ≥28.00 kg/m2 was 2.005 (1.337-3.006) and 2.677 (1.668-4.296) times higher than that of patients with normal BMI, respectively. The OR value of gout in patients with WHR≥0.90 was 1.668 times higher than that in patients with normal WHR, and the difference was statistically significant. The results of subgroup analysis according to age are generally similar. Conclusions　The BMI and WHR of man with gout in Urumqi are higher than those of normal people, and BMI, waist circumference and WHR are all associated with the incidence of gout. The risk of gout increases with the increase of BMI and WHR.

Objective To study the causes of emergency department (ED) overcrowding and access block in Beijing.Methods This was a multi-center cross sectional study.The studied cohort of patients included all ED visiting patients from 18 municipal teaching hospital EDs in Beijing from 2012 to 2013.Patient' s characteristics and medical care settings were analyzed.Results The urgent care cases accounted for only 4.6 ％ (71 224/1 554 387) of the emergency annual visits in 2012 and 5.5 ％ (88 190/1 615 571) in 2013.The total number of observation patients in EDs was 185 277 and 211 900 in 2012 and 2013 respectively,with an increase of 14.4 ％ (P ＜ 0.01).The total ED-admission inpatients only accounted for 2.97％ and 2.89 ％ of total annual visits in 2012 and 2013 respectively.The average time of ED-admission took 37.1 hours and 36.2 hours in 2012 and 2013 respectively.The average time of ED stay for observation was 4.9 days and 5.4 days in 2012 and 2013 respectively.Upper respiratory tract infection was the leading illness in annual visits.The leading cause of ED stay for observation was bedridden with pneumonia.Conclusions The ED settings in Beijing are different from other countries.The EDs actually assume the task of the clinic and ED service for 24 hours thereby made EDs terribly overcrowded.The main causes are large number of non-emergency patients visiting the ED and patients in the ED are difficulty to be hospitalized.Patients with end-stage disease and multiple organ failure stayed in the ED due to nursing home shortage.

Objective:This study investigates the significance of human papilloma virus (HPV) subtype detection in opportunis-tic screening for cervical cancer in Uygur and Han women. Methods:Flow-through hybridization gene chip and thin-prep cytology test were used to detect HPV in cervical cell samples from 1140 females. A total of 428 patients had undergone cervical biopsies through colposcopy. The diagnostic results of the HPV subtype test for cervical lesions were evaluated on the basis of histology. Results:Total HPV infection rate for the 1140 cervical samples was 30.3%. The most common HPV subtypes were HPV16, HPV58, HPV52, HPV18, and HPV45. HPV52 infection rate was higher in Han women than in Uygur women, with statistically significant differences between the two (χ2=8.737, P=0.003). Among these cervical samples, the single HPV infection rate was 22.4%(255/1140), whereas the multiple HPV infection rate was 6.1% (69/1140). The sensitivity and specificity of the HPV subtype test for cervical lesions were 86.4% and 24.5%, respectively. The positive and negative predictive values were 58.5%and 59.3%. Conclusion:HPV infection subtypes in Ugyur and Han women have unique characteristics. Subtype detection is important in opportunistic screening for cervical cancer.
