Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH),to provide the basis for the early clinical diagnosis.Methods 200 cases of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) were divided into NAFL group(115 cases) and NASH group(85 cases).Age,gender,body mass index,blood pressure,clinical symptoms,accompany illnesses,biochemical and image index in the two groups were analyzed and compared retrospectively.Results Asthenia,accounted for 40％,which was the most common gastrointestinal symptom of NASH group.and abdominal distension,anorexia,nausea and vomiting,liver area pain and liver were all involved.There were no significant differences in mainly gastrointestinal symptoms between patients with NASH and NAFL group(P ＞ 0.05),but no symptoms incidence of the two group were higher (44.7％ vs 49.2％ ％ P ＞ 0.05) ;the incidence of obesity,hyperlipidemia,type 2 diabetes,hypertension in NASH group were significantly different compared with NAFL(45.9％ vs 20％,41.2％ vs 22.3％,28.2％ vs 15.6％ respectively P ＜ 0.05) ; In NASH group,BMI,fasting glucose(FPG),2hPPG,serum ferritin,hyaluronic acid,Ⅳ collageninsulin resistance index (HOWA-IR)increased significantly compared with NAFL[(28.68 ± 0.92)vs (22.21 ± 0.43),(9.63 ± 0.64)mmol/L vs (4.92 ± 0.78)mmol/L,(12.96 ±0.28) mmol/L vs (7.04 ±0.13) mmol/L,(243.56 ±7.95) ng/mL vs (140.03 ± 6.80)ng/mL,(130.26 ±9.i6)ng/mL vs (74.85 ±6.54)ng/mL,(130.56 ±8.16)ng/mL vs (72.68 ±7.24) ng/mL,(5.36±0.45) vs (2.63 ±0.12),respectively P＜0.05)].Conclusion Patients with NASH had no obvious gastroenterology symptoms.Obesity,type 2 diabetes,hypertension are more with NASH,and there may be multiple metabolic disorders.

Objective:To explore the association between glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) trajectories and new-onset metabolic syndrome to provide insights for the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome.Methods:A total of 3 209 subjects who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled in the study cohort of physical examination population. The GGT levels before follow-up were classified by R LCTMtools program into 3 GGT trajectory groups: low-stable group, medium-stable group and high-stable group. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the correlation between different GGT trajectories and new-onset metabolic syndrome.Results:At the end of follow-up in 2020, the cumulative incidence of metabolic syndrome was 7.0%, and the incidence of metabolic syndrome in the low-stable group, medium-stable group and high-stable group were 3.9%, 11.4%, and 15.0%, respectively, showing a growth trend ( P<0.001). After adjusting for multiple confounding factors by Cox proportional hazards regression model, the risk of metabolic syndrome in medium-stable group and high-stable group increased in the total population. The hazard ratios (95% CI)for the high stable group in males and the medium-stable group in females were 1.67(1.07-2.60) and 3.29(1.14-9.53), respectively, compared with their respective low-stable group. Conclusion:Elevated longitudinal trajectory of GGT is a risk factor for new-onset metabolic syndrome, the risk of metabolic syndrome in the total population increased with the increase of long-term GGT level. It is recommended to maintain the long-term level of GGT at about 28 U/L in males and 14 U/L in females, respectively, to achieve the goal of early prevention of metabolic syndrome.

OBJECTIVE: To understand the influential factors for depression in patients with facial acne vulgaris and to provide scientific evidence for a comprehensive and systematic treatment for acne vulgaris.
 METHODS: A total of 287 outpatients with facial acne vulgaris, who visited the dermatology of the Third Xiangya Hospital, were surveyed by Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). The data was collected by Epidata software (version 3.1) and processed by SPSS software package (version 18.0). The influential factors for the depression of outpatients with facial acne vulgaris were analyzed by multinomial logistic regression.
 RESULTS: A total of 181 patients with facial acne vulgaris showed various degrees of depression (BDI score≥5) and the rate was 63.1%. The symptoms for depression included sad and pessimistic attitude as well as the decreased attention to others (social withdrawal). The influential factors for mild, moderate or severe depression were gender, the degree and the course of acne. Female patients were more likely to suffer mild, moderate or severe depression (OR=3.62, 2.63, respectively); the risk of depression in acne patients was increased with the increase in degree of the severity (OR=2.31, 4.51, respectively); the patients with the acne course more than a year were more likely to show mild depression than those with a course less than a year (OR=4.30, 7.44, respectively). The patients with acne course more than 3 years were more likely to show moderate or severe depression compared to those with a course less than a year (OR=3.60).
 CONCLUSION Most of facial acne patients show a different degree of depression. The acne course is longer in female patients. The more severe the acne vulgaris is, the more suffering of the depression is. Psychological care should be considered to improve the treatment and quality of life.
