With the support of World Bank ( WB ) and UK Department for International Development ( DFID) , China Rural Health Project ( hereinafter referred asHealth XI Project) has successfully covered 40 coun-ties in 8 provinces. With the establishment of community diagnosis and health records as the entry point, hyperten-sion, diabetes and other major chronic diseases as the starting point, and focus on the needs of healthy people, high-risk groups and patients, the project mainly adopts health education and promotion, health management, disease management and other measures to explore the establishment of a new model of rural chronic disease management. By analyzing the monitoring data of chronic diseases in the project zones, this study found that the number of registered and managed patients with hypertension and diabetes increased significantly, from 397,113 and 136,326 in 2009 to 1,500,252 and 388,846 in 2013, respectively. The management rate also increased from 60. 8% and 32. 2% in 2009 to 92. 2% and 88. 8% in 2013, respectively. The results of the 5th National Health Service Survey show that, the control rates for self-reported hypertension and diabetes ((53. 8% and 50. 2%, respectively) in the project zones were significantly higher than the national average in rural areas ( 54 . 9% and 38 . 3%, respectively ) . This paper suggests that, with focus on training, health education, health promotion, health management and disease manage-ment as the core mainline, the chronic disease management model has effectively improved the chronic disease service capabilities in rural areas,. The comprehensive and integrated chronic disease interventions implemented by the pro-ject in the rural areas is practical, and it has value of popularization and application.

BACKGROUND:Systemic lupus erythematosus is a kind of heterogeneous disease, and the difference of clinical features may also be the risk factors of osteonecrosis besides of treatment with glucocorticoids according to the literature. However, it remains controversial on the risk factors of osteonecrosis in systemic lupus erythematosus patients.
OBJECTIVE:To systematical y review the major risk factors of osteonecrosis in the Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.
METHODS:The CNKI database, CBMdisc database and Wanfang database were retrieved for the published case-control study literatures on the risk factors of osteonecrosis in the Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. The literatures met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included, and a Meta-analysis was conducted by RevMan 5.0 and Stata software. Then, the pooled odd ratio and 95%confidence interval of each risk factor were calculated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Ten case-control study literatures were included involving 332 cases in the case group and 986 cases in the control group. The pooled odd ratio and 95%confidence interval of each risk factor of osteonecrosis in the Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus were as fol ows:Raynaud’s
phenomenon 3.28(1.69-6.38), dental ulcer 2.95(2.13-4.09), renal involvement 1.21(0.83-1.74), vasculitis 5.64(2.84-11.21), hyperlipidemia 5.11(3.10-8.42), anti-phospholipid antibody 2.32(1.49-3.61) and joints involvement
2.02(1.33-3.07). It has been clear that the glucocorticoids is an independent risk factor of osteonecrosis in the patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. However, it is not the one and only risk factor. The fol owing risk factors of
vasculitis, hyperlipidemia, Raynaud’s phenomenon, dental ulcer, positive anti-phospholipid antibody and joints involvement are the risk factors of osteonecrosis in the patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.

BACKGROUND: Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) proliferation and transmigration and platelet activation cause thrombogenesis and lead to grafted vessel restenosis. Nitric oxide (NO) can inhibit the above-mentioned biological responses, but whether endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene transfection can inhibit the neointimal hyperplasia in graft seeded with SMCs remains uncertain.OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to further investigate the effect of eNOS gene transfection on neointimal hyperplasia in the grafts seeded with SMCs.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: This study, a repeated observation and measurement experiment, was performed at the Central Laboratory and Laboratory of Molecular Biology of Xi'an Jiaotong University Medical College from April 2006 to May 2007.MATERIALS: One 1-month-old New Zealand rabbit was used to acquire SMCs. Another 18 adult New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=6).In normal control group,the vessel graft with no SMCs were transplanted; In SMC/lacZ group, the vessel grafts with SMCs transfected with lacZ were transplanted;In SMC/eNOS group,the vessel grafts with SMCs seeded with eNOS were transplanted.METHODS: Rabbit SMCs were transduced with pseudotyped retroviral vectors, Murine leukemia virus/vesicular stomatitis virus G glycoprotein, carrying genes coding for eNOS or lacZ gene. The SMCs then were seeded on the vessel grafts and implanted into the rabbit abdominal aorta using vessel bypass transplantation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Nitric oxide (NO) content in the supernatant of cells transfected with eNOS and lacZ gene was detected by citrulline method. The grafts were stained with X-gal to visualize the seeded cells: the seeded SMCs were stained blue,while eNOS were stained red. The thickness of the neointima on a graft was measured with a microscope.RESULTS: Eighteen rabbits were all included in the final analysis. NO content in the SMC/eNOS group was significantly higher than that in the normal control group (P<0.05). The SMCs transfected with lacZ gene showed blue after X-gal staining under the inverted microscope. Thirty days after implantation, there was no difference in neointimal thickness between normal grafts and grafts seeded with eNOS or lacZ transduced SMCs (P>0.05).100 days after implantation,the neointimal thickness on grafts seeded with eNOS transduced SMCs was similar to that of unseeded grafts (P>0.05 ), but was significantly thinner than that on grafts seeded with SMCs transduced with only lacZ gene (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: eNOS gene transfection inhibits nenintimal hyperplasia in the vessel graft seeded with SMCs.
