Objectives:To investigate the association between social determinants of health(SDOH)and incident stroke and analyze the main risk factors for stroke among resident with different SDOH levels. Methods:From 2012 to 2015,30 036 residents(≥35 years old)from 30 districts in 14 provincial-level administrative divisions in China were enrolled this study based on stratified multi-stage-random-sampling method.The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and related risk factors were investigated,and stroke events were followed up in 2018 to 2019.Principal component analysis was performed to establish SDOH scores based on 9 indicators related to socioeconomic and healthcare resources,participants were divided into low SDOH group(n=8 343)when it was≥-2.01 to<-1.14,middle SDOH group(n=7 257)when it was≥-1.14 to<0.10,and high SDOH group(n=8 457)when it was≥0.10 to≤5.79.Multivariate Cox regression was applied to estimate the association of SDOH levels with incident stroke.The random survival forest method was used to analyze the major risk factors in different SDOH levels. Results:A total of 24 057 participants were finally included,669(2.8%)participants developed stroke during a mean of(4.7±0.8)years follow-up.The incidence densities of stroke in the low,medium,and high SDOH groups were 468.39,628.85,and 700.39/100 000 person-years,respectively(Pdifference<0.05,Ptrend=0.01).Compared with individuals with low SDOH level group,fully HR for incident stroke among those with medium and high were 1.91(95%CI:1.54-2.36)and 1.59(95%CI:1.30-1.95),respectively(Ptrend<0.001).Advanced age is the primary risk factor for stroke in the population,especially in districts with high SDOH level.In districts with medium SDOH level,diabetes is an important risk factor for stroke.High blood pressure and alcohol consumption are important modifiable risk factors in low SDOH level districts. Conclusions:Present study shows that higher levels of SDOH are associated with increased risk of stroke.The main risk factors for stroke differ among participants with different SDOH level districts.Targeted interventions should be implemented to improve the prevention and treatment of stroke in populations with different levels of SDOH.

Objective:To monitor the epidemiological characteristics of viral etiology in children with influenza-like illness and to guide the prevention and management of acute respiratory tract infections in childhood.Methods:Nasopharyngeal swabs were collected from the outpatient children seeking medical care in Children′s Hospital of Fudan University, Shanghai for influenza-like illness between January 2015 and December 2018. Multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction was performed to detect respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), influenza virus (Flu), adenovirus (ADV), parainfluenza virus (PIV, type Ⅰ to type Ⅳ) and enterovirus (EV), and the epidemiological data were analyzed. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 2 271 patients with influenza-like illness were enrolled, age range from two months to 182 months old, 1 280 cases(56.4%) were positive for the target respiratory viruses tested on respiratory samples. The detection rates of FluA, FluB, PIV, EV, ADV, RSV were 15.1%(343/2 271), 12.5%(284/2 271), 8.4%(191/2 271), 7.8%(177/2 271), 5.1%(116/2 271) and 6.7%(152/2 271), respectively.The detection rates of influenza virus were statistically different among the age groups ( χ2=39.33, P<0.05), which showed an increasing trend with the increasing ages. The detection rate of RSV was 9.7%(35/361) in infant group from zero to 12 months old, which was higher than other age groups. Usually, FluA had two epidemic peaks during the winter and summer seasons, the epidemics of FluB and RSV peaked during the winter season, and EV and PIV were more prevalent in the summer season. Conclusions:Influenza virus remains the most common viral pathogen responsible for childhood influenza-like illness in Shanghai.Influenza virus has high incidence in winter.Widely influenza vaccination is highly recommended for the effective prevention the influenza outbreaks.Continuous monitoring the epidemic trend of viral respiratory infections is imperative for the prevention and control of diseases.

Objective To investigate the effect of early adequate enteral nutrition (EN) on diaphragmatic thickness and prognosis of mechanical ventilation (MV) patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) by ultrasound. Methods Sixty-two MV patients with AECOPD and feasible to receive early EN were admitted to the Department of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Wenling Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Zhejiang Chinese Medical University from April 2017 to March 2018, and they were divided into an observation group and a control group according to random number table, 31 cases in each group. Besides conventional treatment, both groups started EN (EN) within 2 days, in the observation group, the EN was adequately treated, and the target calories were gradually reached within 3 days; in the control group, nourishing feeding was given, and the target calories were gradually reached after 7 days. Ultrasound was used to measure the diaphragmatic end-expiratory muscle thickness (DTee) and end-inspiratory muscle thickness (DTei) before and after treatment for 3 days, 7 days, and the diaphragmatic thickening fraction (DTF) were calculated; in addition, the MV time, ICU time of stay, 14-day success rate of off-line and incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) were compared between the two groups. Results There were no statistical significant differences in the comparisons of age, arterial blood gas analysis and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score etc general status, and the parameters of DTee, DTei and DTF between the two groups before treatment (all P > 0.05). No statistical significant differences in DTee were found after treatment for 3 days, 7 days and after off-line in the comparisons between the two groups (mm: 3 days was 2.69±0.12 vs. 2.68±0.15, 7 days was 2.70±0.14 vs. 2.70±0.13, off-line was 2.71±0.15 vs. 2.70±0.10, all P > 0.05); while the DTei of the two groups were decreased after treatment for 3 days of treatment, the difference between the two groups being not statistically significant (mm: 3.27±0.13 vs. 3.26±0.12, P > 0.05), but the levels of DTei in the two groups were significantly increased after treatment for 7 days and after off-line, the differences between the two groups being statistically significant (7 days: 27.26±5.25 vs. 28.74±6.39, off-line: 34.19±4.78 vs. 30.10±2.90, both P < 0.01). There was no significant difference in MV time and ICU time of stay between the two groups [MV time (days): 7.8±1.0 vs. 8.5±1.2, ICU time of stay (days): 11.4±2.6 vs. 12.1±2.8, both P > 0.05], the 14-day success rate of off-line and incidence of VAP were similar in the two groups, and the difference were not statistically significant [14-day success rate off-line: 77.42% (24/31) vs. 70.98% (22/31), incidence of VAP: 6.45% (2/31) vs. 9.68% (3/31), both P > 0.05]. Conclusion The early adequate EN therapy can improve diaphragmatic function and prognosis in MV patients with AECOPD.

Objective To explore the relationship between the serum gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) level and the prognosis of liver cancer patients undergoing living dornor liver transplantation.Methods A retrospective analysis was made on 139 liver cancer cases receiving living donor liver Tx from Apri 2005 to Oct 2015 in Sichuan University Huaxi Hospital.GGT cut-off value of 71 U/L was calculated from the ROC curve method (sensitivity was 72.2％,specificity was 59.0％).According to the values of the cut-off patients were divided into high GGT group (73 cases) and low GGT group (66 cases),chi-square test was used to judge its correlation with capillary tumor emboli and Kaplan Meier method to determine the overall survival rate difference.Results The tumor vascular invasion,AFP level,tumor size were in disfavour for higher GGT group (P ＜0.05).The 1,3,5 year's survival rates were 59.0％,44.5％,39.7％,for high GGT group,and in low GGT group it was 78.6％,63.6％,63.6％,P =0.010).Conclusions The liver cancer patients with high preoperative serum GGT values have poor long-term prognosis after receiving living donor liver transplantation.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency of the application of array comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH) in preimplantation genetic diagnosis or screening (PGD/PGS), and compare the clinical outcomes of different stage embryo biopsy. Methods The outcomes of 381 PGD/PGS cycles referred in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from July 2011 to August 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.
