ObjectiveTo assess the relationship between central obesity and metabolic syndrome (MS) in community population.MethodsOne thousand and fifty-three individuals aged≥18 (mean,45.6),including 542 men and 511 women,were recruited for questionnaire survey and medical exarmnation from 4 communities of Hangzhou during March and November 2007.Their blood pressure,waist circumference,serum glucose,lipid profile,and other biochemical markers were measured.All data were used for variance analysis.ResultsThe prevalence of MS,central obesity,hypertension,and diabetes mellitus (DM) was 11.2%,23.6%,30.5%,and 8.5%,respectlvely.The prevalence of MS,DM,and hypertension was increased with waist circumference(P<0.05).Waist circumference was positively correlated to body mass index (BMI).systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DSP),fasting blood sugar,total cholesterol,and triglyceride (r=0.812,0.649,0.712,0.657,0.598,and 0.676,respectively),although negativelv with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(r=-0.578).Waist circumference also showed positive rclationship with the number of lipid metabolism abnormity(r=0.658,P<0.01).CondusionFor Hangzhou community population.central obesity might be one of the risk factors of MS.

Objective: To investigate the expression of α-B crystalline in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and discuss its role in the prognosis and targeted therapy of TNBC by analyzing the correlation amongα-B crystalline and the clinico-pathological indi-ces of breast cancer. Methods:Immunohistochemistry SP assay was used to determineα-B crystalline expression in paraffin-embedded specimens of 30 cases of TNBC and 50 cases of non-TNBC tissues. The differences in protein expressions among tissues were com-pared, and correlation analysis was performed to determine the relationship between protein expression and clinico-pathological indi-ces. Results:The positive expression rate ofα-B crystalline was 66.67%in TNBC (20/30) and 42.00%in non-TNBC (21/50), which in-dicates that the expression is significantly higher in TNBC than in the non-TNBC tissues (χ2=4.566, P<0.05). The expression ofα-B crystalline in breast cancer has no significant difference in terms of age, tumor diameter, and cancer stage (P>0.05), but exhibits a differ-ence in terms of lymph node metastasis and the number of metastasized lymph nodes [P53, Ki67 (P<0.05)], which presents a positive correlation (r=0.251). Theα-B crystalline expression in TNBC has no significant difference among indices such as age, tumor diameter, nodal metastasis, number of metastasis, P53, cancer stage, and Ki67 (P>0.05). Conclusion:Significant differences were found inα-B crystalline expression between TNBC and non-TNBC.α-B crystalline is highly expressed in TNBC tissues, and the expression is signif-icantly higher in TNBC tissues than that in non-TNBC tissues.α-B crystalline is associated with poor prognosis of breast cancer. Conse-quently, the overexpression ofα-B crystalline in TNBC may be a reason for unfavorable TNBC prognosis.

Atrioventricular node is responsible for conducting impulse from atria to ventricles.Connexin within atri-oventricular junction play a key role in conducting function of atrioventricular junction;because it presents diversi-fied expression,so its conducting junction is diversified in different areas of atrioventricular junction.Knowing ex-pression type of connexins can approximately determine conductive function in atrioventricular junction area.

Results Nurses' cognition and attitude towards the elderly family nursing was better than nursing college students, medical students were better than non-medical students; and there was no statistical significance about their expectation for government's senior citizen service among different groups. Conclusions More attention should be paid to family members' attitudetowards the elderly home care, and should strengthen the elderly family care through various way.

Objective To explore the effect of hospital-community-based collaborative management on elderly out-patients with chronic heart failure (CHF).Methods A total of 228 out-patients with CHF were randomly assigned to the community-based health management group (n =106 ) and the hospitalcommunity-based collaborative health management group (n =122).In community-based health management group,the patients only received community-based health management,while in hospital-community-based collaborative health management group the patients accepted comprehensive health management.One year later,medication compliance,readmission rate,mortality,average length of hospitalization,medical costs and Minnesota living with heart failure questionnaire (LiHFe) were compared between the two groups.Results No statistically significant differences in clinical data were found between the two groups at baseline.After one year,medication compliance was significantly improved in hospital-community-based collaborative health management group when compared to community-based health management group ( x2 =8.97,P ＜ 0.05 ).Readmission rate,averagelengthof hospitalizationandmedicalcostsof hospital-community-based collaborative health management group were lower than community-based health management group (x2 =9.91 ; t =3.78,3.61 ; all P ＜ 0.05 ).One year ago,the items of LiHFe including physical dimension,emotion,symptom and social dimension and total score showed no significant between the two group (t =0.42,0.81,0.66,0.44,0.41 ; all P ＞ 0.05 ).While one year later,all the scores of hospital-communitybased collaborative health management group were significantly declined( t =6.37,11.81,6.16,9.64,9.13;P ＜ 0.05 ).Mortality showed no significant difference between the two groups ( x2 =0.247,P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Hospital-community-based collaborative management for health care may be a practical and valuable strategy for decreasing readmission rate and medical burden and improving quality of life of elderly patients with CHF.

Objective To observe the results of restoration of shoulder abduction by spinal accessory nerve transfer which was sectioned infraclavicularly to repair the suprascapular nerve in avulsed brachial plexus injury. Methods The donor nerve of accessory nerve was sectioned at the level of medial and lateral muscular branch entering the trapezius; the proximal segment was used for the transfer to repair the suprascapular nerve. The function of shoulder abduction was followed-up for 2-4 years in 49 patients with avulsed brachial plexus injury, the function of the trapezius after operation was also measured by physical check up and electrophysiological detection in 20 patients. Results The average range of the shoulder abduction was 61? , the muscle strength of the trapezius was unaffected on the upper and middle parts except the lower parts after the operation. Conclusion The shoulder function of the patients with brachial plexus injury recovered satisfactorily after transfer of the accessory nerve sectioned infraclavicularly to repair the suprascapular nerve; the muscle strength of the trapezius was unaffected on its upper and middle portion.

Objective To explore the effect of modified Zexie Decoction on renal aquaporin-2 (AQP2) expression in high-salt hypertensive rat. Methods Hypertensive rats model was established by feeding rat with 8%high salt. Rats (n=50) were divided into model group, modern medicine group, traditional Chinese medicine groups of high, medium, low dose, with 10 rats in each group. The other 10 rats were fed with ordinary diet as normal group. Rats in traditional Chinese medi?cine of high, medium, low groups were given Zexie Decoction suspension of 16.2, 10.8 and 5.4 g/(kg·d) respectively;Rats in modern medicine group was given Valsartan hydrochlorothiazide 16.65 mg/(kg·d);the model group and normal group was ad?ministered with equal volume of distilled water. Animals were feed with medications at 1 mL/100 g by gavage for 4 weeks. On the 1st , 4th , 7th , 14th and, 28th day of administration, we measured SBP and collected 24 h urine. We employed immunohis?tochemistry to detect renal AQP-2 protein expression level and RT-PCR to detect renal AQP-2 mRNA transcription level. Results The rank of SBP from high to low is:model group>traditional Chinese medicine medium and low dose groups>traditional Chinese medicine high dose group and western medicine group>normal group. The rank of urine volume from high to low is:Western medicine group and traditional Chinese medicine high dose group>traditional Chinese medicine me?dium and low dose group > normal group, the difference was not statistically significant between traditional Chinese medi?cine medium and low dose group , or between western medicine group and traditional Chinese medicine high dose group. The renal AQP-2 in epithelial cells along the collecting duct wall of rats in model group show brown particles which are darker and wider distributed than those in normal group and traditional Chinese medicine of high, medium, low dose groups. RT-PCR results show that AQP-2 mRNA expression is highest in rats of model group and lowest in rats of traditional Chi?nese medicine high dose group (P<0.05). No statistical significance of AQP mRNA level was found between traditional Chi?nese medicine low group and model group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Modified Zexie Decoction can lower blood pres?sure by inhibiting the expression of AQP-2.
