Objective:To investigate ulinastatin (UTI) combined with Xingnaojing injection in the treatment of acute cerebral hemorrhage (ACH) and its effect on the serum high sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP),D-dimer (D-D) and neuron specific enolase(NSE) levels.Methods:110 cases of ACH patients admitted in our hospital from January 2015 to December 2016 were selected and divided into two groups according to the random number table method.The control group was given UTI treatment,while the observation group was given UTI combined with Xingnaojing treatment.Then the brain edema absorption effect,NIHSS score,serum hs-CRP,D-D and NSE levels before and after the treatment of the two groups were recorded and compared;the safety ofmedicidstion of the two groups was evaluated.Results:At the 14th day after treatment,the total effective rate of cerebral hematoma absorption in the observation group was 89.1%,which was significantly higher than 67.3% of the control group (P<0.01).At the 14th day after treatment,the NIHSS scores of both groups were significantly lower than those before the treatment (P<0.01);compared with that of the control group of the same time period,at the 14th day after treatment,the improvement effect of NIHSS score in the observation group was more significant (P<0.01).Compared with those before the treatment,the serum hs-CRP,D-D and NSE levels of both groups at the 14th day after treatment were significantly decreased (P<0.01);at the 14th day after treatment,the serum indicators of the observation group improved more significantly than those of the control group (P<0.01).The incidence rate of adverse reaction in the observation group was 3.6% compared with 5.5% of the control group (P>0.05).Conclusion:Ulinastatin combined with Xingnaojing Injection could rapidly relieve or eliminate hematoma in the treatment of acute cerebral hemorrhage,control the inflammatory response,improve the blood coagulation system and fibrinolytic system,protect the nerve cells and reduce the neurological damagee.

OBJECTIVETo explore the heritability of body mass index (BMI) in twins across different regions and genders in China.
METHODSA total of 11 122 adult twin pairs from the Chinese National Twin Registry were interviewed. A structural equation model was used to estimate the heritability of BMI.
RESULTSThis study included 6 226 monozygotic twin pairs and 4 896 dizygotic twin pairs, with the age range as 25-85 (39.0 ± 10.8) years. Under stratified analysis by region, results showed that the highest and lowest rates on heritability of BMI in men were seen in Tianjin and Zhejiang, as 67.8% (95% CI: 50.1%-85.8%) and 42.1% (95% CI: 27.2%-60.9%), while in women were seen in Sichuan and Heilongjiang as 56.2% (95% CI: 47.5%-70.0%) and 11.2% (95% CI: 0.0%-31.7%), respectively. Results from the stratified analysis showed that, by gender, the heritability of BMI in men was higher than that in women from the same region. The biggest differences of heritability of BMI between men and women were seen in Heilongjiang as 55.3% (95% CI: 35.5%-80.0%) and 11.2% (95% CI: 0-31.7%), while the smallest differences were seen in Sichuan as 61.5% (95% CI: 40.7%-86.4%) and 56.2% (95% CI: 47.5%-70.0%), respectively.
CONCLUSIONThe heritability of BMI across different regions and genders showed certain differences in the Chinese twins.

Objective:
To analyze the heritability of diabetes among the Chinese twin adults.
Methods:
A total of 10 253 same-sex twin pairs aged 25 years and older, were selected from the Chinese National Twin Registry (CNTR) program. Heritability of diabetes was calculated by using the structural equation model.
Results:
After adjusted for age and gender, the overall heritability rates of diabetes were 0.41 (0.15-0.75), 0.83 (0.72-0.91) and 0.34 (0.04-0.73) in the <45 and ≥45 years twin pairs, respectively. After adjusted for age, rates of heritability appeared as 0.37 (0.05-0.78) and 0.88 (0.79-0.94) in men and women, respectively.
Conclusions
Diabetes is affected by both genetic and environmental factors. The genetic effect of diabetes seemed stronger on female than that on male twins but was dying down along with ageing.
