Objective To determine the bacterial composition and antibacterial resistance in female urinary tract infections (UTI) in China. Methods The disc diffusion test, minimum inhibition concentration (MIC), test or E-test was used to detect the antimicrobial susceptibility in 86 tertiary hospitals in China from June 1, 2006 to May 31, 2007. WHONET 5.4 was applied for data analysis. Results A total of 6071 pathogenic germs were collected from urine cultures of UTI female patients in the surveillance period, which included 5958 bacterial isolates. Escheriehia coll 3529 strains (59. 23% ), Enterococcus spp 938 strains (15.74%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae 394 strains (6.61%) were the most common pathogens. Escherichia coli and Klabsiella pneumoniae had 35.7% and 34. 0% extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) positive rates, and their resistant rates to quinolones were about 70% and 40%, respectively. Enterococcus faecium was much more resistant to almost all the antibiotics than Enterococcus faecabs. 0. 9% Escherichia faecalis and 3.8% Escheriehia faecium were resistant to vancomycin, whereas 2.7% and 4. 8% were resistant to teieoplanin. Staphylococcus epdermidis was more common in UT1 than Staphylococcus aureus, 79. 1% and 75.0% of the isolates being methiciUin-ressitant Staphylococcus epdermidis(MRSE) or methicillin-ressitant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), respectively. No vancomycin intermediate or resistant staphylococcus was detected, but 4. 9% teicoplanin intermediate rate was found in Staphylococcus epdermidis. The resistant rates to quinolones increased with the patient age. Condnsions Bacterial resistance in UTI in Chinese females is a severe problem, which could be resulted from antimierobial irrational use. In the selection of antimicrobial agents in the treatment of UTI, doctors should refer to the results of bacterial resistant surveillance.

Objective To investigate the menstruation status of reproductive age women of Han Nationality in Liaoning province. Methods From Apr. 2008 to Dec. 2008, 1611 women at age of 19-45 years from Shenyang, Yingkou, Benxi, Zhangwu were enrolled in this study according to epidemiologic cluster sampling method. The study was performed by questionnaire consisting of age of menarche, regularity of menstruatinn, menstrual cycle and dysmenorrhea, et al. Results In the survey of 1611 women, the average menarche age is 14.4 years old, there were significant difference on menarche between (14.2±1.5) years in women from city and (14.6±1.5) years in women from country (t=6. 58, P<0.01). The linear regression statistic method was used to analyze the relationship between age and menarehe age, the linear regression equation was gotten as Y=0. 074X+11. 855, which means 1 year increase was associated with decrease by 0.074 years in mennrche age approximately. About 86.34% (1391/1611) of women have normal and regular menstrual cycle at range of 21 to 35 days, while 11.05% (178/1611) of women have longer menstrual cycle(>35 days) and 2.61% (42/1611) of women have shorter menstrual cycle (<21 days). Of which 65.67% (1058/1611) women have regular menstrual cycle just after menarche, 94. 97% (1530/1611) of women would have regular menstruation in 2 years after menarche. The rate of dysmenorrhea was 42.09% (678/1611), of which 13.6% (92/678) women have high severe pelvic pain.Conclusion Our results suggested that the trend went toward younger ages of menarche,which was younger menarche age in women from city than country. About 95% women would have regular menstrual cycle within 2 years after menarcbe.

Objective To evaluate lipid profile and its relationship with body mass index (BMI)in 4784 elderly male subjects. To explore the possibility of using an improvemem of dyslipidemia as an alternative target in the weight control in elderly male population. Methods 4784 elderly male subjects were surveyed with, the measurement of blood lipids and were grouped according to age (60-69, 70-79, 80-96 yrs) and BMI (<18.5, 18.5-23.9, 24.0-27.9, ≥28.0 kg/m2), respectively.Results The mean levels of TC, LDL-C, TG and HDL-C (mmol/L) were (5.1±0.9)mmol/L,( 3.0±0. 8)mmol/L, (1.5±1.0)mmol/L and (1.3±0. 3)mmol/L, respectively. The prevalence of dyslipidemia was 44.8% (2141 cases) in this population, with specific abnormality rates in TC,LDLC, TG, HDL-C being 10. 4% (497 cases), 9.3% (445 cases), 29.8% (1425 cases) and 19.4% (928cases), respectively. Within all age groups, TG decreased dramatically and HDL-C incre ased with increasing age (P<0.01), while the 60-69 yrs age group versus other age groups showed a tendency to an increment of TG, and a decrement of HDL-C. (P<0. 05). Prevalences of overweight and obesity were 46.8% and 15.5% in the elderly male subjects, respectively. The level of TC increased with the increasing BMI, while HDL-C decreased. The differences in TG and LDL-C among various BMI groups were of no statistical significances. High TG and low HDL-C were predominant abnormalities amongst the oldest old, whose lipid profile resembled that of the 70-79 yrs age group.Whilst, the prevalences of overweight and obesity were at the lowest levels of 44.6% (228 cases) and 11.9% (61 cases), respectively. Conclusions High TG and low HDL-C are predominant abnormalities in elderly male subjects. TC level in the current population is higher than that from the national census in 2002. Prevalences of overweight and obesity are close to that in developed countries.TC and LDL-C levels are negatively related to age in the elderly male population, contrasting the correlation between HDL-C and age.

Objective: To investigate the effects of Fufang Jiangzhi No. 3, a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine, on cholesterol-bile acid metabolism in rabbits with hypercholesterolemia and to explore the mechanism. Methods: Twenty-four male New Zealand white rabbits were randomly assigned into normal control group, untreated group and Fufang Jiangzhi No. 3 group, with 8 rabbits in each group. Rabbits in the untreated group and Fufang Jiangzhi No. 3 group were fed high cholesterol diet to induce hypercholesterolemia. After 4-week treatment, serum total cholesterol and bile acid contents were assessed. Activity of cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A1) in liver tissues was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expressions of CYP7A1, bile salt export pump (BSEP) and small heterodimer partner (SHP) mRNAs in liver tissues were observed by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results: Compared with the normal control group, serum total cholesterol and bile acid contents in the untreated group were increased (P<0.01). Activity of CYP7A1 and expression of CYP7A1 mRNA were decreased and expressions of BSEP and SHP mRNAs were increased in liver tissues in the untreated group as compared with the normal control group (P<0.01). Serum total cholesterol level, and expressions of BSEP and SHP mRNAs in the Fufang Jiangzhi No. 3 group were lower than those in the untreated group (P<0.01). The CYP7A1 activity and expression of CYP7A1 mRNA in the Fufang Jiangzhi No. 3 group were increased as compared with the untreated group (P<0.01), however, there was no significant difference in bile acid between the Fufang Jiangzhi No. 3 group and the untreated group. Conclusion: Fufang Jiangzhi No. 3 can up-regulate the expression of CYP7A1 mRNA, raise the activity of CYP7A1, and inhibit the expressions of BSEP and SHP mRNAs to regulate the metabolism of total cholesterol in rabbits.

Objective To explore the utility of different body composition for the prediction of myocardial ischemia in exercise in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. Methods T2DM outpatients were selected from Jul. 2013 to Nov. 2014 (male 83, female 57) to measure body composition and clinical biochemical parameters, and divided them into two groups according to treadmill exercise testing results. Group A cases were positive (27 patients) and Group B cases were negative (113 patients). SPSS19.0 was used to make statistical analysis. Results (1) The age, gender, diabetes mellitus (DM) duration, medical history of hypertension and dyslipidemia, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, the waist-hip fat ratio of the two groups had no significant difference (P>0.05). (2) The fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) between the two groups had no significant difference. Compared with group B, the low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) of group A [(2.48 ± 0.75) mmol/L vs. (2.81 ± 0.77) mmol/L, t=2.009, P<0.05] decreased significantly. (3) Overall body fat percentage, skeletal muscle weight of the two groups had no significant difference. Compared with group B, the waist-hip fat ratio (0.93±0.06 vs. 0.88±0.08, t=-2.790, P<0.01) andvisceral fat area [(99.47 ± 32.84) cm2 vs. (81.10 ± 25.47) cm2, t=-2.822, P<0.01] of group A increased significantly, while this difference mainly existed in male patients visceral fat area [(100.99±39.33) cm2 vs. (79.91 ± 27.09) cm2, t=-2.231, P<0.05], and waist-hip fat ratio was different in female patients of the two groups (0.91±0.06 vs. 0.85±0.09, t=-2.043, P<0.05) . Conclusion Abdominal obesity, especially visceral fat accumulation had close correlation with myocardial ischemia in exercise in T2DM patients. Waist-hip fat ratio and visceral fat area may be more effective indicators of myocardial ischemia in exercise in T 2DM patients than BMI.

Objective:
To analyze the trends of weight, blood pressure and serum uric acid levels in college graduates during 2016-2020, so as to provide the evidence for chronic diseases prevention and control in university students.
Methods:
A cross sectional study was conducted to collect the data of physical examination of new graduates of Peking University during 2016-2020. It analyzed the differences in the BMI, blood pressure, serum uric acid, prevalence of overweight/obesity, hypertension, and hyperuricemia.
Results:
For males, the prevalences of overweight/obesity, hypertension of 2016-2020 and hyperuricemia of 2018-2020 varied significantly ( χ 2=52.94, 37.63, 55.53, P <0.01), but not significant difference of overweight/obesity, hypertension among the four groups of 2016-2019 ( χ 2=6.45, 1.05, P >0.05). The highest prevalences of overweight (29.25%), obesity ( 11.37 %), hypertension (12.60%) and hyperuricemia (43.84%) were observed in the group of 2020. For females, the prevalence of hypertension of 2016-2020 and hyperuricemia of 2018-2020 were significantly different ( χ 2=14.14, 14.59, P <0.01),but not significant difference of hypertension of 2016-2019( χ 2=0.34, P >0.05). The highest prevalences of hypertension (2.35%) and hyperuricemia (13.86%) were both found in the group of 2020.
Conclusion
High prevalence of hypertension and hyperuricemia in college graduates of 2020 suggest unhealthy lifestyle probably has adverse impact on health consequences in young adult students.

Objective To analyze the initial treatment strategies, blood glucose control and reaching standard status of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the middle-aged and elderly. Methods The 771 patients diagnosed with T2DM newly or within one year, aged 50-70 years, selected from Chinese Diabetes Complication Prevention Study (CDCPS) were enrolled in this study. The correlations of initial treatment strategies with blood glucose control (target value of glycated hemoglobin was less than 7.0%) and reaching standard status were analyzed retrospectively. Based on the same lifestyle intervention, the therapy was further divided into group A (without medication), group B (single oral hypoglycemic agent), group C (combined oral hypoglycemic agents), group D (treatment including insulin). Results Although receiving the different treatments, the 771 patients had a similar mean glycated hemoglobin level, from 7.2% to 7.7%, among the four kinds of intervention before entering the study. The increased intensity and complexity after therapy adjustment along with the increased glycated hemoglobin level was observed at baseline. The corresponding relationships between medication and HbA1c were as follow: without medication-6.1%, single oral hypoglycemic agent-7.2%, combined oral hypoglycemic agents-7.7%, treatment including insulin-9.2%. After 20 months of follow-up, the mean fasting glucose and glycated hemoglobin were 6.6 mmol/L and 6.2%, separately. According to the target glycated hemoglobin level of less than 7.0%, all four-kinds of therapies had high achievement rates, which were all above 80% except that was 63.2% in group D. Sulphonylurea and biguanide as initial single oral hypoglycemic agent therapy had the similar effectiveness on glucose control and target glycated hemoglobin achievement. Conclusions According to the levels of glucose and glycated hemoglobin, multiple individual therapies should be enacted at the beginning of treatment. The strategy mainly based on sulphanylurea and biguanide is proved to be persistently effective in newly-diagnosed middle-aged and elderly diabetic patients in China.
