Objective To explore the risk factors of cardiovascular disease in adolescents with a family history of hypertension.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in 3874 adolescents ages 13-18 years,with normal BP in 3724 people.Based on family history of hypertension (FH),the cohort of adolescents were dichoto- mized as postive family history (FH~+,n=1145) and negative (FH~-,n=2579).Height,weight,waist circum- ference,hip circumference,blood pressure and fasting plasma glucose(FPG),total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride (TG) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C) were determined.Results FH~+ adolescents had signifi- cantly higher levels of body mass index(BMI),waist circumference,WHR,FPG,TC and LDL-C(P

Objective To delineate the relationship between body mass index(BMI),waist-to-height ratio (WHtR)and hypertension in adolescents.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in 3874 adolescents ages 13-18 years.They were classified into four groups according to BMI and WHtR,group A:normal BMI and WHtR

Objective:To study influence of exercise rehabilitation based on medical treatment combination model on patients with chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods:A total of 110 CHF patients treated in our hospital were ran-domly and equally divided into routine nursing group and exercise rehabilitation group(received exercise rehabilita-tion on the basis of medical treatment combination model based on routine nursing group).Both groups were inter-vened for 12 week.s Peak oxygen uptake(Peak VO2),Peak work rate(Peak WR),anaerobic threshold(AT),ratio of peak VO2 to heart rate(Peak VO2/HR),score of Minnesota living with heart failure questionnaire(MLHFQ)and 6min walking distance(6MWD)before and after intervention and incidence rate of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)were compared between two groups.Results:There were three cases lost during intervention in each group.Compared with routine nursing group,after intervention,there were significant rise in Peak VO2[(13.92±0.88)ml·min-1·kg-1 vs.(16.00±0.84)ml·min-1·kg-1],Peak VO2/HR[(8.92±0.81)ml/beat vs.(9.83±0.79)ml/beat],AT[(684.10±74.11)ml/min vs.(827.38±98.56)ml/min]and 6MWD[(470.12±42.76)m vs.(502.21±26.54)m],and sig-nificant reductions in Peak WR[(79.85±6.10)W vs.(72.65±5.48)W]and MLHFQ score[(49.17±3.96)scores vs.(36.38±3.57)scores]in exercise rehabilitation group(P=0.001 all).Incidence rate of MACE in exercise rehabili-tation group was significantly lower than that of routine nursing group(0.36%vs.15.38%,P=0.046).Conclusion:Ex-ercise rehabilitation based on medical treatment combination model can significantly improve cardiopulmonary function and exercise endurance,reduce incidence rate of adverse cardiovascular events and improve short-term quality of life in pa-tients with chronic heart failure.
