Objective To study the association of prevalence of cardio-cerebro vascular diseases (CCVD) with metabolic syndrome (MS) defined by different criteria in middle and aged people.Methods A cross-section survey was conducted among 1458 people aged 55 years and over in urban and rural areas of Beijing in 2009.MS definitions by World Health Organization (WHO),National Cholesterol Education Program-Adult Treatment Panel Ⅲ (NCEP-ATP Ⅲ ) revised,international diabetes mellitus (IDF) and Chinese Diabetes Society (CDS) were applied to analyze the association MS with the prevalence of CCVD.Results The risks of CCVD were all significantly higher in patients with MS than with non-MS using 4 definitions of MS.The definitions of WHO and CDS showed well agreement with the prevalence of CCVD.OR values of MS for CCVD were 2.14 folds (95％ CI:1.59-2.87) for WHO definition and 1.91 folds (95％ CI:1.43-2.55) for CDS definition,while OR values of MS for CCVD were 1.68 folds (95％ CI:1.32-2.15) for NCEP-ATPⅢ definition and 1.64 folds (95％ CI:1.26-2.13) for IDF definition as compared to non-MS,respectively.After adjustment for age,sex,region,history of smoking and alcohol drinking,the OR values in above four definitions were 1.91,1.88,1.67 and 1.80,respectively.The OR value of MS was highest for stroke by CDS definition and highest for coronary heart disease by WHO definition.Conclusions MS values defined by WHO and CDS are the optimal index of prevalence for CCVD in middle and aged people.

Objective To analyze the effect of stroke duration on the cognitive function in the elderly population in Beijing.Methods Based on the Research Project of Beijing Chronic Disease Combined with Common Elderly Syndrome Community Management Practices,a cross-sectional study was used.From July 2013 to December 2014,the old population in 4 districts and a county (Xicheng District,Fangshan District,Tongzhou District and Yanqing County) in Beijing were sampled with the multi-stage,randomized and stratified sampling.A total of 3 024 subjects were enrolled in the study.The data were obtained from the questionnaires and clinical examinations.Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) was used as the evaluation index of cognitive function.The subjects were divided into either a normal cognitive function group (MMSE>26,n=1 878) or a cognitive impairment group (MMSE≤26,n=1 146) according to the MMSE scores.A multiple logistic regression model was used to analyze the effects of hemorrhagic stroke,ischemic stroke,and asymptomatic stroke,as well as disease duration on cognitive function.Results After adjusting for the confounding factors,such as sex,age,educational level,marriage,smoking,and alcohol consumption,the risks of occurring cognitive impairment in patients with hemorrhagic stroke in stroke duration for 1-3,4-10 and >10 years were OR 3.019 (95％CI 0.974-9.361,P=0.056),8.652 (95％CI 2.924-25.601,P<0.01) and 1.104 (95％CI 0.311-3.920,P=0.879) times of those without occurring stroke population;the risks of occurring cognitive impairment in patients with ischemic stroke in stroke duration for 1-3,4-10 and >10 years were 1.000 (95％CI 0.636-1.571,P=1.000),1.874 (95％CI 1.231-2.853,P=0.003),2.439 (95％CI 1.386-4.291,P=0.002) times of those without occurring stroke population.Stroke duration for 4-10 years in patients with hemorrhagic stroke and stroke duration for 4-10 and >10 years in patients with ischemic stroke were all the risk factors for occurring cognitive dysfunction.Conclusion For patients with stroke,stroke duration or long-term effects has a certain impact on cognitive function.

Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of ultraselective transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) originating from the caudate lobe. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed for 13 patients with solitary HCC originating from the caudate lobe who were admitted to Department of Interventional Radiology in PLA General Hospital from March 2013 to December 2016. A 2.6-F microcatheter was used to perform ultraselective TACE, and the embolization material was ultra-liquefied iodinated oil. The number of tumor-feeding arteries, success rate and short-term efficacy of ultraselective technique, and long-term survival were evaluated after surgery. Results: Of all patients, 8 (61.5%) had a single tumor-feeding artery and 5 (38.5%) had multiple tumor-feeding arteries. The success rate of ultraselective technique was 84.6% (11/13). The complete remission rate at 1 month after ultraselective TACE was 63.6% (7/11). During the follow-up period after the expiration date, 10 out of 11 patients who underwent successful ultraselective TACE survived, and one out of two patients who underwent failed ultraselective TACE survived. Conclusion Ultraselective TACE has good feasibility, clinical effect, and safety in the treatment of HCC originating from the caudate lobe, with an important clinical significance in the prognosis of such disease.

Large hepatocellular carcinoma,of which diameter is considered to be ≥ 5 cm,has mostly invaded vascular system or been liver function reserve loss when found,resulting in opportunities to surgical therapy are lost.Combined interventional therapy based on transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) has become one of the main treatments for the surgically unresectable large hepatocellular carcinoma.In particular,TACE combined local ablation has gradually replaced the interventional therapy model of TACE alone.The current combination therapy is mainly sequential combination.With the development of imaging equipment,real-time synchronization is becoming increasingly important and has become one of the current research hotspots.This article focuses on the research status and perspectives of image guidance,local ablation methods,the order of the joint,the number of times and the timing of the joint situation of TACE combined local ablation in treatment of large hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To study the clinical efficacy of Dyna computer tomography (Dyna CT) guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) followed immediately by transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in the treatment of large solitary hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC),and to provide the basis for the rational use of Dyna CT.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 23 patients with a large solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (tumor diameter ≥5 cm) who were admitted to Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2014 to October 2015 and treated with Dyna CT guided RFA followed immediately by TACE.After treatment,the success rate of the combined technique,the treatment time,the radiation dose received by the patient,the complication and the efficacy of the combined therapy were evaluated.Results The success rate of the combined technique was 100％.The treatment time was (45.3 ± 4.8) min.The radiation exposure dose was (730.5 ± 78.8) mGy.There was no serious complication after treatment.The complete remission rate of the targeted lesion was 91.3 ％ (21/23),the partial remission rate was 8.7 ％ (2/23).On follow-up,5 patients had died.The 6,12,18 month survival rates were 100％,81.5％ and 48.0％,respectively.Conclusions Dyna CT guided RFA for a large solitary HCC was efficacious and safe.The immediate combination of TACE with RFA provided a new alternative strategy for the treatment of a large solita-ry HCC.Dyna CT has important clinical values.

The development of hepatocellular carcinoma is insidious and rapid.Most patients can not undergo surgery after diagnosis.Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is considered to be the best modality for treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.However,there are some bottlenecks in TACE,such as low targeting of chemotherapy drugs and incomplete treatment.How to improve the curative effect of TACE has become a key issue in the interventional treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.In recent years,the study of nano-drug delivery systems has been expected to solve these problems,and has become a hot spot in the field of targeted therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma.In this paper,the current research status of nano-drug delivery systems and its application in the interventional-targeted therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma are reviewed.

Objective To discuss the relationship between food habits and hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy), and provide dietary intervention basis for the aged in prevention and cure of HHcy. Methods Participants coming from the cohort of the Beijing Longitudinal Study of Aging in 2009, were asked to complete a food habits questionnaire and underwent laboratory examinations, including total homocysteine and blood biochemical item. According to effects of food on metabolism of Hcy, the commonly used foods were divided into three kinds: (1)Rich in VitB12 or folic acid or betaine:chicken or duck egg, pork or beef or lamb, bean products and vegetables.(2)Rich in VitB6: fish or shrimp, milk and chicken or duck. (3)Rich in antioxidant: fresh fruit, tea and coffee. According to the intake of frequency, each food was divided into"often eat"and"not often eat"or"not eating". HHcy was defined as>15μmol/L, Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the association between dietary intake and HHcy, after adjusting confounding factors. Results The prevalence of HHcy was 61.9%(902/1458);accordi ng to the results, for the patients who do not often eat or not eat food rich in VitB12 or folic acid or betaine (chicken or duck egg, bean products and pork or beef or lamb) and VitB6 (fish or shrimp and milk), the risk of HHcy was significantly increased. After adjusting for multiple factors, the risk was still significantly increased, P<0.05. Conclusions Not often eating chicken or duck egg(less than once a day), bean products(less than once a week), fish or shrimp(less than twice a month) and not eating pork or beef or lamb or milk, were independtly associated with the increasing risk of HHcy in elderly people.
