Objective To study the prevalence of hypertension in She Chinese population of Fujian province and its epidemiological characteristics. Methods Using random sampling method to take advantage of number table, we select a sample of 5350 people who were conducted a questionnaire survey and measured weight, height, blood pressure and other indicators. Results The prevalence of hypertension in She Chinese population of Fujian province was 36. 09%, including undiagnosed number of 1374 cases. The main risk factors of hypertension were age,the level of education, BMI,saltintake. Smoking was not significant with hypertension. The prevalence rate of hypertension among people over 60 years was 63.10%, people comsumed above 8 grams of salt per day had higher pervalence than that in the goup which comsumed below 6 grams or between 6 grams to 8 grams of salt per day. Conclusions The prevalence of hypertension in She had grown rapidly. The She Chinese population should change their lifestyle and hypertension education should perform in this population.

Objective: To investigate the signal transduction mechanisms of time-dependent effects of 50 Hz 1.8 mT sinusoidal electromagnetic fields(SEMFs)on osteoblastic activity. Methods: Newborn rat calvarial osteoblasts(ROBs)were treated with 50 Hz 1.8mT SEMFs for 30, 60, 90, 120, and 150 min, respectively.Intracellular alkaline phosphatase(ALP)activity was assayed, and protein expression of Runt-related transcription factor 2(Runx2), Smad1/5/8 and mitogen-activated protein kinases(MAPKs)were examined by Western blot.The Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay System was used to measure the activity of the Wnt pathway.Immunofluorescence staining and laser confocal microscopy were applied to examine the nuclear translocation of Smad1/5/8 and β-catenin.Changes in ALP activity were determined after inhibiting p38 MAPK using a specific inhibitor. Results: ALP activity of ROBs increased after 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 min of SEMFs treatment, compared with the control group(51.41±5.21, 59.47±4.02, 67.56±4.68, 63.69±3.92, and 58.16±3.61 vs.45.53±3.24), and reached the highest value at 90 min and then started to decline.Protein expression of Runx-2, p-Smad1/5/8, p-p38 and β-catenin increased after SEMFs treatment, and reached the highest value at 90 min and then gradually returned to baseline levels.The values for Wnt pathway activity for the control group and with SEMFs treatment at 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 min were 0.49±0.06, 0.52±0.09, 0.75±0.05, 0.77±0.42, 0.58±0.08 and 0.42±0.09, respectively.Wnt pathway activity, the nuclear translocation of β-catenin and Smad1/5/8 reached the highest level at 90 min.Values of ALP activity in the control group and the SEMFs group were 44.60±3.84 and 71.54±7.34, respectively, before specifically inhibiting p38 MAPK, and were 52.08±0.83 and 52.15±10.77, respectively, after p38 MAPK inhibition, indicating that ALP activity could not be increased with inhibition. Conclusions 50 Hz 1.8 mT SEMFs increase osteoblastic activity by activating the BMP-2/Smad1/5/8, Wnt/β-catenin and p38 MAPK signal pathways.The optimal duration of treatment is 90 min per day.

Objective: To investigate the effect of exenatide on body weight, blood glucose, blood lipids, insulin resistance and the degree of fatty liver in young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Meth-ods: Totally 70 young and middle-aged patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes and NAFLD were chosen and randomly divided into observation group and the control group with 35 cases in each group. The patients were treated with exenatide or isophane prota-mine biosynthetic human insulin injection for 3 months on the basis of original oral hypoglycemic drugs. The body weight, BMI, waist circumference, HOMA-IR, plasma glucose (FPG), 2 hour postprandial blood glucose (2hPG), glycated hemoglobin (HbAlc), blood lipids, liver function indices (ALT, AST and GGT), and the severity of fatty liver were compared before and after the treatment. Re-sults: After the 3-month treatment, there was no significant difference in glycemic control between observation group and the control group. After treatment, the body weight, BMI, waist circumference, HOMA-IR, TG, ALT, AST and GGT in observation were signifi-cantly decreased than those before the treatment(P<0. 05), and were superion to those in control group(P<0. 05). While in the control group, all the above indices were not significantly changed before and after the treatment (P>0. 05). The total efficiency for treating NAFLD in observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion: Besides reducing blood glucose effectively, exenatide can also obviously reduce body weight and TG level, improve insulin resistance, decrease liver en-zymes, and significantly ameliorate the degree of fatty liver. The results suggested that exenatide might be a new therapeutic option for young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes and NAFLD.

Objective:To investigate the effect of 25 hydroxyvitamin D [25 (OH) D] on postoperative parathyroid function in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) .Methods:426 patients who diagnosed as PTC and underwent at least total thyroidectomy plus central lymph node dissection (including lateral lymph node dissection) in Center of Thyroid and Parathyroid Surgery of West China Hospital, Sichuan University, from Jun. 2017 to Sep. 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 313 were women and 113 were men, they were divided into vitamin D deficient (VDD) group ( n=297) and normal group ( n=129) according to preoperative 25 (OH) D levels ≤ 20ng/ml and > 20ng/ml. SPSS 23.0 statistical software was used for data processing. Pearson χ2 test or Fisher exact test were used to compare the incidence of clinical hypoparathyroidism, biochemical temporary and biochemical permanent hypoparathyroidism between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the related factors of postoperative hypoparathyroidism between the two groups. Results:Preoperative 25 (OH) D level was significantly correlated with postoperative biochemical temporary hypoparathyroidism ( P=0.04, OR=1.11) . Compared with patients with adequate preoperative vitamin D, preoperative vitamin D deficiency increased the risk of biochemical transient hypoparathyroidism by 6.67 times ( P=0.03;OR=6.67) . There was no significant correlation between preoperative vitamin D deficiency and early postoperative clinical hypoparathyroidism (2.7% vs 3.9%, P=0.55) . Conclusion:Correction of vitamin D deficiency before operation may reduce the incidence of postoperative temporary hypoparathyroidism caused by 25 (OH) D deficiency.

Objective:To examine the correlation factors of contralateral central lymph node metastasis in unilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma with lateral cervical lymph node metastasis.Methods:The clinical data of patients with unilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma who underwent total thyroidectomy and bilateral central lymph node dissection and ipsilateral cervical lymph node dissection from June 2016 to June 2018 at Department of Thyroid Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 317 patients, including 87 males and 230 females, aged (41.4±12.1) years (range: 16 to 75 years), were enrolled in this study. The risk factors of contralateral central lymph node metastasis were analyzed by χ 2 test and Spearman correlation analysis. Results:There were 116, 69, 269, and 181 cases of pretracheal lymph node, prelaryngeal lymph node, ipsilateral central lymph node and contralateral central lymph node metastasis, respectively, and 16 cases of skipping metastasis. Univariate analysis showed that contralateral central lymph node metastasis was associated with gender, maximum tumor diameter, capsule invasion, pretracheal lymph node metastasis, prelaryngeal lymph node metastasis, and ipsilateral central lymph node metastasis (all P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that male ( r s=0.162, P=0.004), maximum tumor diameter>10 mm ( r s=0.184, P=0.001), capsule invasion ( r s=0.135, P=0.016), pretracheal lymph node metastasis ( r s=0.394, P<0.01), prelaryngeal lymph node metastasis ( r s=0.272, P<0.01) and ipsilateral central lymph node metastasis ( r s=0.203, P<0.01) were independent correlation factors for contralateral central lymph node metastasis. Conclusion:For patients with unilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma with ipsilateral cervical lymph node metastasis, bilateral central lymph node dissection should be considered if male, tumor diameter>10 mm, capsule invasion, pretracheal lymph node metastasis, prelaryngeal lymph node metastasis, or ipsilateral central lymph node metastasis.
