Objective To explore the relation of stroke and metabolic syndrome (MS), and provide theoretical evidence for prevention of stroke and MS. Methods Five hundred stroke patients accompanied with MS were enrolled, and divided into different types according to the distribution of the components of metabolic syndrome and abnormal metabolic condition. The systolic blood pressure(SBP) ,diastolic blood pressure( DBP),fasting glycemia ( FPG ), triglycerides ( TG ), total cholesterol ( TC ), low density density lipoprotern-cholesterol (LDL-C), high density density lipoprotern-cholesterol (HDL-C)of each patient were detected and recorded. Results Among these stroke patients with MS, most patients were 60 - 69 years old ( 39.60% ), and there was no significant difference between two gender( P = 0. 545 ). Among each component of MS, hypertension was most related to MS;patients complicated with hypertension + hyperlipidemia + hyperglycemia were the most major proportion of stroke patients with MS(48. 00% ). Conclusion MS and its components are all risk factors for stroke,and the more complication the patients had,the more patients suffered from stroke with MS. Targeted interventions of different type of abnormal condition has important prevention effect on MS and stroke.

Objective To assess the value of color Doppler ultrasonogarphy in the diagnosis of subacute thyroiditis (SAT). Methods Sixty-eight patients of SAT and 30 patients with thyroid papillary carcinoma were included, and their imaging features were retrospectively reviewed. Results All the patients with SAT had either focal or diffuse hypoechogenicity of the thyroid lobes with rich blood supplying in the diseased region, among them 52 patients (76.47%, 52/68) had tenderness on palpation. Diffuse and focal lesions were found in 40 (58.82%, 40/68) and 28 patients (41.18%, 28/68). The boundary and shape of focal lesions had no diagnostic characteristics compared with those of thyroid papillary carcinoma. Punctate calcification and resistance index (RI) in the nodule were significant different between the SAT and thyroid papillary carcinoma (P<0.05). Conclusion Color Doppler ultrasonography can display the features of SAT and is an effective method for the diagnosis of SAT.

Onodera prognostic nutrition index (OPNI) is a simple and effective parameter. It is calculated by serum albumin level and peripheral blood lymphocyte count. Initially, OPNI is used to assess preoperative nutritional status and surgical risk. In recent years, researchers have found that OPNI is related to the prognosis of many tumors. Simple and accurate prognosis evaluation can help to select treatment methods for digestive system malignant tumors, determine the best pre-operative treatment time and operation time, and improve the survival rate of patients with diges-tive system malignant tumors. The authors review the related literatures at home and abroad, and summarize the research advances in the prognostic value of OPNI for malignant tumors of digestive systems.
