Objective:To investigate the awareness of diabetic retinopathy (DR) prevention and treatment knowledge of diabetic patients in the community of Shenzhen, and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A cluster random sampling method was used to select 904 patients with diabetes diagnosed in 6 community health service centers in 2 administrative districts of Shenzhen and included in this study. Questionnaire survey of patients were performed to understand their knowledge of DR prevention and treatment. The multi-factor logistic regression analysis method was used to analyze the related influencing factors of DR prevention knowledge awareness.Results:Among 904 patients, 144 patients (15.93%, 144/904) knew about DR prevention and treatment knowledge. The highest awareness rate were about "Diabetes can affect vision and even cause blindness" (88.60%, 801/904). The lowest awareness rate (6.20%, 56/904) were about "DR treatment methods". About "diabetes requires regular fundus examinations" and "diabetics", the awareness rate of fundus examination interval were less than 50.00%. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that gender [odds ratio ( OR)=1.595], education level ( OR=2.963, 3.937), monthly income level ( OR=3.871, 4.675), diabetes course ≥15 years ( OR=1.829), treatment measures ( OR=3.318, 4.512). Whether people had DR ( OR=1.605) were important factors that affected the awareness of DR prevention and treatment knowledge ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall awareness of DR prevention and treatment knowledge among diabetic patients in the community of Shenzhen is relatively low. Males, low education and income levels are the main influencing factors.

Objective To establish blood reference ranges and compare these ranges with national standard in northeast Sichuan area .Methods Routine blood parameters of red blood cell ,white blood cell ,hemoglobin blood platelet count were detected in 12 480 healthy adult and old persons(divided groups according to gender ,age) and 1 120 neonatal from June 2013 to June 2014 in North Si-chuan Medical College Affiliated Hospital ,and concluded their routine blood reference range ,then analyzed the difference with the national standard .Results The range of red blood cells had no statistical difference compared with national standard in different age and gender groups(P>0 .05) .The ranges of white blood cell count and hemoglobin had significant differences compared with the national standard only in the neonatal group(P<0 .05) .The range of platelet count had significant difference compared with the na-tional standard in all age and gender groups(P<0 .05) in the northeast area of sichuan .Conclusion There are significant differ-ences between the partial routine blood value in the northeast area of Sichuan and the current reference range ,and might influence the clinical judgment of abnormal results .
