Objective:To compare the differences in low-level physical activity (PA) and related influencing factors in patients with diabetes mellitus in China and the United Kingdom (UK).Methods:Using baseline survey data from the China Kadoorie Biobank and the UK Biobank, we analyzed the association between diabetes mellitus and low-level PA using logistic regression, with the participants' self-reported whether they had diabetes mellitus as the independent variable, and low-level PA as the dependent variable.Results:We included 509 254 Chinese adults and 359 763 British adults in the analysis. After adjusting for multiple factors, we found that both Chinese and British patients with diabetes mellitus were at elevated risk for low-level PA, with corresponding ORs (95% CIs) of 1.15 (1.12-1.19) and 1.37 (1.32-1.41), respectively. Patients with diabetes mellitus with longer disease duration and poorer glycemic control were at greater risk of having low-level of PA. Female, rural-distributed, employed, never-smoking Chinese diabetics, and male, urban-distributed, retired/unemployed, quit-smoking British diabetics were more likely to have low-level PA. Conclusions:Chinese and British patients with diabetes mellitus were more likely to have low-level PA compared with the general population, but the risk of low-level PA for patients in both countries varied by population characteristics. Therefore, PA guidelines and intervention measures should be based on the characteristics of individuals in the target countries and regions, which could improve PA levels among patients with diabetes mellitus.

In recent 30 years, the global burden of cancer has become more serious, and one of social problem is population aging, plus declining birth rate, declining marriage rate and increasing divorce rate. Marriage is one of the most intimate and long-term social relations, and previous research had piecemeal reports of its impact on cancer morbidity and mortality without systematic review of evidence in high-quality population based epidemiological research. This paper summarizes the progress in research of the relationship between marital status and cancer to provide reference for future research and cancer prevention and control.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of tendon-management and patella-movement therapeutic manipulation in the treatment of patellofemoral arthritis based on imaging evaluation. MethodsTotally 126 patients with patellofemoral arthritis were recruited and divided into a treatment group and a control group according to a randomised numerical table. The control group received routine sodium hyaluronate injection once a week for a total of 5 times； the treatment group received tendon-management and patella-movement therapeutic manipulation three times a week for four weeks. We compared the Western Ontario and McMaster University osteoarthritis index score （WOMAC）， visual analogue scale （VAS）， imaging indicators including patellar external displacement distance， patellofemoral fit angle， lateral patellofemoral angle， and patellofemoral index， and overall effectiveness evaluation between the two groups before and one week after treatment. ResultsThe total effective rate of the treatment group （45/54， 83.33%） was significantly higher than that of the control group （36/54， 66.67%，P＜0.05）. One week after the end of treatment， the VAS scores and WOMAC scores of both groups were lower than those before treatment in the same group （P＜0.01）， and the patellofemoral index and patellofemoral fit angle of the treatment group decreased compared with that of the control group （P＜0.05）. Compared with the pre-treatment， the distance of patellar external displacement， patellofemoral index， and patellofemoral fit angle decreased in the treatment group 1 week after the end of treatment， and the patellofemoral fit angle decreased in the control group （P＜0.05）. ConclusionThe therapeutic manipulation of tendon-management and patella-movement can correct the degree of patellar external displacement， alleviate joint pain symptoms， improve joint function， and achieve the goal of treating patellofemoral arthritis.

It is believed that diabetes complicated with coronary heart disease is closely related to the functional interplay of the heart， spleen， and kidneys. This paper proposed the concept of the heart-spleen-kidney as a unified system for understanding and treating the disease. At the early stage， spleen and kidney deficiency leads to the internal accumulation of phlegm， dampness， and turbid lipids， causing impaired blood circulation and vascular obstruction， so treatment should focus on tonify the kidneys and strengthening the spleen， activating blood circulation and resolving stasis， using the self-prescribed Tangxin Maiwen Formula （糖心脉温方）. As the disease progresses， further decline of spleen and kidney function results in inadequate nourishment of the heart， leading to blood stasis and the accumulation of phlegm， dampness， and turbid lipids， which may transform into pathogenic heat and toxins， causing heart damage， then treatment should emphasize on boosting qi and nourishing yin， clearing heat， activating blood and resolving toxins， using the self-prescribed Tangxin Maiqing Formula （糖心脉清方）. In advanced stages， three zang organs， the heart， spleen， and kidneys， become severely impaired， leading to mental activity fail to be nourished and abnormal cognitive functions， so treatment should focus on harmonizing the three zang organs simultaneously， using the self-prescribed Yunpi Tiaoxin Decoction （运脾调心汤）. This approach aims to provide a clinical framework for the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes with coronary heart disease.
