Objective To analyze the dietary behavior and blood lipid profiles of the local elderly Tibetans and Han people living in Tibet and in Beijing,and to advise some steps to promote the health of local elderly Tibetans.Methods We collected the data of diet and blood lipids of the local Tibetan and Han people living in Tibet and in Beijing aged over 35 yrs by the method of migration epidemiology.Results The diet pattern of Tibetan was high intakes of coarse grains(219.8?123.3 g/day),meat(226.2?210.1 g/day),and wine(580.8?1 049.0 g/day),but low intakes of fresh vegetable & fruits(217.8?160.4 g/day).The prevalence of hypertriglyceridemia(5.0%) and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(3.1%) of Tibetan was lower than that of other two groups(elderly Han people in Tibet 22.5% and 10.7%;elderly Han people living in Beijing 14.7% and 8.4%,all P

Objectives To develop a measurement for obesity assessment which could be used as a simple tool of risk screening. Methods The data of National Nutrition and Health Survey ( 2002 ) were used to analyze the relationship between body mass index ( BMI ), waist circumference (WC) and chronic diseases, based on which chronic disease index ( CRI ) was established. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to determine the cut-off of CRI and to compare the predictive effectiveness of CRI,BMI and WC on chronic diseases. The kappa test was chosen to estimate the consistency of different cut-off of CRI with BMI and WC. The odds ratios of chronic diseases in different cut-offs of CRI were calculated by multiple Logistic regression analysis. Results CRI was calculated as CRI = BMI + 3.5 WC. In ROC curve,the cut-off of CRI was 300. The predictive effectiveness of CRI was higher than that of BMI and WC. CRI at 300 showed the best consistency with 24 kg/m2 BMI and 85 cm WC (P <0. 05 ). In comparison with CRI <300,the risk of chronic diseases was significantly increased with an increase of 20 U CRI. Conclusion CRI shows good predietive effectiveness and could be used to identify those with higher risk of chronic diseases.

Objective: To evaluate the status of protein and amino acids in farmers who consumed cereals predominately in Henan province, China. Method: Socioeconomic information of 101 selected families was obtained by interviewing; food consumption data were gathered by 12 separated 24 h recalls, and FFQ method. Results: The protein intake was 74 g/capita/day in average, 87% from plant sources. Lysine is the first limiting amino acid . By anthropometric measurements of children aged 5-12 years, 26% of them were stunted and 40% underweight. Conclusion: The total amount of protein matched adult requirements, but was insufficient for children growth. Lysine fortification and other measures may be suggested for relieving child undernutrition.

Objective To study the effect of body weight management on community residents with over-weight or obesity.Methods Chronic Disease Management Information System was used to establish personal health profile for 10 560 individuals with over-weight or obesity(4660 men and 5900 women,average age 58±12 years).Guide for individualized food intake,physical activity were given to these participants for an average of 9±6 months (range,1 to 32 months) with a following up.The change of body weight before and after the intervention was nalyzed.Statistical software(SPSS 12.0) wag used for the data analysis,the frequencies,rate and trend were analysised by the chi-square test,the means in quatitaitve data was analyzed by the paired t-test.P valuse for statistiacal significance is set for 0.05.Results A total of 9848 participants showed no change in body weight,although weight decrease or increase was seen in 499 and 213,respectively.Before and after the intervention,the proportion of weight remained,decrease or increase among over-weisht + central obesity individuals was 92.3%(6290/6817),5.9%(403/6817) and 1.8% (124/6817);95.5%(2888/3024),2.8%(84/3024) and 1.7%(52/3024) among the simple overweight or obesity group;and 93.2%(670/719),1.7%(12/719)and 5.1%(37/719) among the simple central obesity group,separately.Conclusions Body-weight management among central obesity individuals with over weight in communities is a more effective way of in terms of individule intervention than those individuals only with single over-weight,obesity or central obesity status.

ObjectiveTo investigate the quality of life (QOL) of the epilepsy patients and the factors affected the QOL.Methods200 cases were investigated using the Quality of Life in Epilepsy Inventory 10 (QOLEI-10) and the Washington Psychosocial Seizure Investigate (WPSI). 200 healthy persons were chosen as normal control group. ResultsThe QOL of the patient group were significantly poor as compared with that of normal control group(P<0.01). The factors that the patients always faced with were disability in the attack control, short in money, unemployment, restriction of movement, disability in intercommunication, psychological disorder (depress, strain, anxiety, dread, shame feel, cognitional dysfunction, etc.), as well as the difficult to get professional curtains, taking medicine improperly and side effects of the medicine. Conclusions The factors mentioned, which were usually neglected by many doctors, do affect the QOL of epilepsy patients, and hinder the epilepsy treatment effectively.

Objective To investigate the effect of narrative education on emotional and clinical ability of baccalaureate nursing students practicing in ICU. Methods A total of 42 baccalaureate nursing students practicing in ICU between January 2016 and September 2016 were treated as the control group and received traditional teaching, their counterparts practicing in ICU between October 2016 and June 2017 were served as the observation group (41 cases) and subject to narrative education. The Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),the Self-rating Depression Scale(SDS) were filled out by both groups before and after practicing in ICU, and assessed the comprehensive ability after ICU practice. Results The scores of SAS and SDS after practicing were (49.47 ± 12.37),(50.25 ± 11.86)points in the observation group and (54.32 ± 12.51), (55.79 ± 11.34) points in the control group, and the difference was significant(t=10.822, 12.310, P<0.05). The total scores and personal quality, theoretical knowledge level, clinical nursing ability, judgment thinking ability, communication and cooperation ability was (88.45 ± 13.54), (23.21 ± 4.73), (18.42±3.45), (17.91±3.62), (8.56±0.83), (8.34±0.67) points in the observation group , and (73.13± 11.35), (19.13±4.52), (15.45±3.21), (15.76±3.54), (6.17±0.19), (5.17±0.18) points in the control group, and the difference was significant (t=3.226-8.665, P<0.05 or 0.01). Conlusions The narration education can reduce the psychological burden of baccalaureate nursing students practicing in ICU and can improve the comprehensive ability of them.
