Objective: To study relationship between exercise and risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. Methods: A total of 750 military cadres retired or on the job, who received convalescence therapy in Guangzhou sanatorium, were enrolled as survey subjects, and divided into exercise group(488 cases), and no- exercise group (262 cases). The cardiovascular risk factors such as blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), fasting blood glucose(FBS), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG)and uric acid were measured. Questionnaires were used to survey mode of exercise, exercise frequency, exercise duration each time and total exercise time in a day. Results: 1. In no-exercise group, levels of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, BMI, FBS, TC and TG were significantly higher than those of exercise group (P<0.05 all), but there were no significant difference in age and levels of HDL-C, LDL-C and uric acid between the two groups(P>0.05 all); 2. (1) Abnormal rate of risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (call for short was risk rate, similarly hereinafter)in different exercise duration each time (≥30 min、<30 min)and exercise mode(walking, taijiquan)were no significant(P>0.05 all);(2)Risk rate in subjects who took exercise >60min in a day was significantly lower than that of those with ≤60min (29.41% vs. 45.59%), in subjects whose exercise intensity with RPE(Borg rating of perceived exertion scale)11~15 was significantly lower than that of with RPE <11 (33.67% vs. 44.64%), P<0.05 all;(3)Risk rate in subjects whose exercise frequency ≥3 times/week was significantly lower than that of with <3 times/week (31.47% vs.8.43%), in subjects whose persistence time of exercise was 10~19 years was significantly lower than that of with <10 years, P<0.05 all. Conclusion: 1. Risk extent of cardiovascular diseases is lower in exercise group, and there is additive effect in risk factor for cardiovascular diseases; 2. take exercise >60min/d, Borg rating of perceived exertion scale 11~15, exercise frequency ≥3 times/week and long time persistence are conduce to decrease risk of cardiovascular diseases in middle-aged and aged persons.

Objective To assess the characteristics of facial nerve canal between normal anatomy and dysplasia of children in different ages.Methods A total of 492 health ears were divided into six groups,neonatal group (< 1 m,n =42),infancy group(1 m-1 y,n =106),toddler group(1-3 y,n =102),preschool group (3-6 y,n =100),school group(6-10 y,n =60)and adolescent group (10-14 y,n =82).The length and diameter of facial nerve canal and that angles of first and second genu were measured with CT in each group.Results ①The lengths of facial nerve canal in neonatal and infancy group were shorter than other four groups,especially in the mastoid segments of facial nerve canal.The lengths of mastoid segments in neonatal,infancy,toddler,preschool,school and adolescent groups were 5.03 ± 0.84,6.25± 1.40,8.34 ± 1.38,9.70 ± 1.34,10.84 ± 1.41 and 12.17 ± 1.83 mm,with P <0.05,respectively.After school age,the lengths of labyrinthine and tympanic segment grew slowly or developed completely (P > 0.05).② The diameter of labyrinth and tympanic segment in neonatal group were narrower than other five groups (P < 0.05),but no significant difference among them in other groups (P > 0.05).③The dysplasia of facial nerve canal were occurred on 978 locations.Among them,the percentage of dehiscence,aberrance,partially expanding and bifurcation were 72.9% (713/978),5.1% (50/978),18.9% (185/978) and 3.1% (30/978) respectively.The percentage of dehiscence in geniculate fossa segment was decreased significantly with age (neonatal group 85.7% (36/42),infancy group 59.4% (63/106),toddler group 39.2% (40/102),preschool group 33% (33/100),school group 30% (18/60) and adolescent group 26.8% (22/82),with P < 0.05).Except the dehiscence of geniculate fossa and mastoid segment,there was no significant difference in the occurrence rate of the other variants (P > O.05) Conclusions The growth of length and dehiscence in labyrinth segment of facial nerve canal are significant in difference ages.The changes of diameter and angles of first and second genu in facial nerve canal,and the rate of other dysplasia are individual.
