Objective To study the relation between the pressure in forefoot and the second metatarsalgia in hallux valgus deformity, finally to quantitatively analyze the pressure under the second metatarsal head which is a dangerous factor leading to second metatarsalgia. Methods Three groups volunteered for this study by a self-devised foot pressure measurement system: fifty-eight normal subjects (116 feet) without pain and deformity in foot, thirty-two patients (45 feet) with hallux valgus and pain only under the second metatarsal head, fifty-six patients (102 feet) with hallux valgus without symptoms of metatarsalgia. The percentage of pressure to weight was the criteria for data analysis. First the pressures under second metatarsal head among three groups were compared with each other. Secondly we used case-control study to identify whether it was high pressure that was likely to result in metatarsalgia. Finally we compared the pressure interval under second metatarsal head among three groups to define the pressure interval which might be a dangerous factor to second metatarsalgia. Results 1)The pressure beneath the second meatatarsal head in patients with metatarsalgia was the highest in the three groups (P

Objective: To investigate the correlation between admission blood glucose (ABG) level and long-term prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) without diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods: A total of 585 ACS patients received percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in our hospital from 2014-01 to 2015-10 were consecutively enrolled and no one combined with DM. Based on ABG levels, the patients were divided into 2 groups:ABG≥7.0 mmol/L group,n=133 and ABG<7.0 mmol/L group,n=452. Demographic, clinical data and treatment conditions were collected to conduct follow-up study and to assess the prognosis. Results: The median follow-up time was 350 days and all cause death in ABG≥7.0 mmol/L group and ABG<7.0 mmol/L group was 2.4% vs 0.9%,P>0.05. Compared with ABG<7.0 mmol/L group, the patients in ABG≥7.0 mmol/L group had the higher incidences of MACE, PCI complication, recurrence of angina and more re-admissions for cardiac event, all P<0.05.Cox regression mode lanalysis in dicated that in addition to acute STEMI (HR=2.016), malignant arrhythmia (HR=3.028) and previous MI history (HR=2.293), blood glucose≥7.0mmol/L was also an independent risk factor for poor long-term prognosis in relevant patients. Conclusion: ABG≥7.0 mmol/L implies poor long-term prognosis in ACS patients and special attention is necessary in secondary prevention.
