Objective To determine the distribution of risk factors,the relationship between risk factors and chronic diseases and the order of intervention priorities of high-risk population,and to provide scientific evidence for the prevention and control of chronic diseases in different population within Xinjiang railway bureau.Methods A multi-stage stratified random sampling method was used to enroll 1 171 employees aged 18 and above from one region administered directly by the railway bureau and two other regions administered by the West Railway Station,on-site questionnaire interview and physical examination were conducted.Results The prevalence of dyslipidemia was the highest (380/1 171,32.45％),followed by hypertension (197/1 171,16.82％) and coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (75/1 171,6.40％).Age,family history,smoking,drinking,overweight and obesity,lack of physical exercise,unhealthy diet are major risk factors for chronic disease.Among the modifiable risk factors,percentage of subjects with smoking,drinking,overweight and unhealthy eating were 43.55％ (510/1 171),23.57％ (276/1 171),37.66％ (441/1 171) and 32.11％(376/1 171) respectively,the percentage of subjects with physical exercise was 38.60％(452/1 171).There were significant differences in smoking,drinking,obesity,physical exercise and unhealthy diets among different age groups (P＜0.05).In different education level,smoking rate of subjects at high school/ technical secondary school was significantly higher than those of college and above,High school/technical secondary school physical exercise rate is the lowest,36.87％ (212/575),junior college and above the lowest rate of poor diet,26.62％ (127/477).The smoking rate of diesel locomotive drivers,connecting workers are higher than other types of workers,the drinking rate of line workers,train inspection staff are higher than other types of workers,the obesity rate of diesel locomotive drivers,train inspection staff,station attendant are higher than other types of workers,the physical exercise rate of diesel locomotives drivers,conductor,truck inspection staff are lower than other types of workers.Conclusion intervention Priorities for chronic disease should be given to hypertension and dyslipidemia;production and frontline workers are a highcr risk.Intervention should focus on the top-five occupational groups ranked by the distribution of risk factors and prevalence of chronic diseases (diesel locomotive drivers,truck inspection staff,station attendants,train inspection staff and conductor).

Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor of the female reproductive system with a high incidence rate and is one of the main causes of cancer-related deaths in women. Modern research believes that pregnancy, breastfeeding, and other reproductive behaviors can cause the changes in the levels of female estrogen and progesterone and related receptors, and affect the morphology and function of breast tissue, which are associated with the occurrence of breast cancer. This paper aims to summarize the impact of breastfeeding on the occurrence of breast cancer and analyze their correlation to increase the maternal breastfeeding rate, reduce the occurrence of breast cancer, and lower the risk of breast cancer in women.

Objective To explore the effect of lung strain on breathing mechanics in dogs with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods Twenty-four healthy male Beagle dogs were recruited to reproduce medium ARDS models with venous injection of 0.18 mL/kg oleic acid, and they were randomly assigned to five groups with random numbers table method. In lung protective ventilation (LPV) group (n = 4), the ventilation was supported for 24 hours with tidal volume (VT) at 6-8 mL/kg, and in lung strain 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 groups (S1.0, S1.5, S2.0, S2.5 groups), the VT was calculated from lung strain, the volume recruitment by positive end expiratory pressure (VPEEP) and functional residual capacity (FRC). Five groups were given mechanical ventilation for 24 hours or until reaching the end point of the experiment [when the dosage of norepinephrine was higher than 1.4μg·kg-1·min-1, the blood pressure was still lower than 60 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) for more than 30 minutes, which was regarded as the end point of the experiment]. Static lung compliance (Cst), airway plateau pressure (Pplat) and lung stress during the experiment were recorded. Linear regression analysis was used to fit the regression equations of lung strain and Cst descending rate,Pplat and lung stress for analyzing their relationships.Results The VT of group LPV was (7.1±0.5) mL/kg. With the increase of lung strain, VT was gradually increased. VT of group S1.0 [(7.3±1.8) mL/kg] was similar to group LPV. VT of groups S1.5, S2.0, S2.5 was significantly higher than that of group LPV (mL/kg: 13.3±5.5, 18.7±5.4, 20.1±7.4 vs. 7.1±0.5, allP < 0.05). Moreover, under the same lung strain, the difference in VT among individuals was large. The Cst of each group was decreased significantly at the end of the experiment as compared with that before model reproduction. With the increase of lung strain, the rate of Cst descending was increased, Cst dropped more significantly in groups S2.0 and S2.5 than that in groups S1.0 and S1.5 [(48.0±15.0)％, (54.4±9.5)％ vs. (25.9±13.7)％, (38.6±8.1)％, all P < 0.05]. Pplat and pulmonary stress at model reproduction in all groups were significantly higher than those before model reproduction, and they increased with the prolongation of ventilation time. Pplat and lung stress at 4 hours of ventilation in group S1.5 were significantly higher than those in group LPV [Pplat (cmH2O, 1 cmH2O = 0.098 kPa):26.2±2.3 vs. 20.2±4.2, lung stress (cmH2O): 20.5±2.0 vs. 16.6±2.5, bothP < 0.05], and they increased with lung strain increasing till to the end of experiment. It was shown by correlation analysis that lung strain was positively related with Cst descending rate, Pplat and lung stress at 4 hours of ventilation (rvalue was 0.716, 0.660, 0.539, respectively, allP < 0.05), which indicated a strong linear correlation. It was shown by fitting linear regression analysis that when lung strain increased by 1, Cst descending rate increased by 19.0％ [95％ confidence interval (95％CI) = 14.6-23.3, P = 0.000], Pplat increased by 10.8 cmH2O (95％CI = 7.9-13.7,P = 0.002), and the lung stress increased by 7.4 cmH2O (95％CI = 4.7-10.2,P = 0.002).Conclusion In animal ARDS models, the larger the lung strain, the higher the Pplat and lung stress during mechanical ventilation, VT originated for lung strain 2.0 and 2.5 may further reduce Cst in ARDS models, when lung strain over 1.5, Pplat and lung stress increased significantly, which exceeded the safe range of LPV (35 cmH2O and 25 cmH2O, respectively), and further aggravated ventilator induced lung injury (VILI).

Objective To investigate the effect of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) on critical patients with non-pulmonary primary disease in the emergency department. Methods The literature of English and Chinese clinical studies on the ECMO treating critical patients with non-pulmonary primary disease published before August 2017 were electronically searched on PubMed, Embase and other databases. The obtained articles were selected, their qualities were strictly evaluated, and the in-hospital survival rate, 3-month, 6-month and 1-year survival rate, as well as the average intensive care unit (ICU) and length of hospital stay were extracted. This meta-analysis were performed using RevMan software (Version 5.0, Cochrane collaboration). Results A total of 11 articles (n=3043) were enrolled including 616 cases of ECMO treatment group and 2427 cases of control group. Fitting results showed that compared with the traditional treatment, application of ECMO can improve the in-hospital survival rate[52.1％(321/616) vs. 32.1％ (780/2427); OR=2.02; 95％CI:1.11-3.67, P=0.02] and the survival rate more than 90 days[42.1％ (61/145) vs. 17.1％ (38/222); OR=3.98; 95％CI:2.30-6.89, P<0.01];and prolong the average length of hospital stay (MD=-5.35, 95％CI:-8.10--2.60, P<0.01) and ICU time(MD=-8.99, 95％CI:-8.20--1.80, P<0.01). Conclusions Meta-analysis of existing studies showed that application of ECMO can improve the short-term and long-term prognosis of critical patients with non-pulmonary primary disease. However, due to the small number of studies and the large heterogeneity of the study population, it is necessary to carry out more, large samples and high quality randomized controlled clinical trials.

Objective:To establish a radiomics signature based on CT images of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to predict the expression of molecular marker P63.Methods:A total of 245 NSCLC patients who underwent CT scans were retrospectively included.All patients were confirmed by histopathological examinations and P63 expression were examined within 2 weeks after CT examination.Radiomics features were extracted by MaZda software and subjective image features were defined from original non-enhanced CT images.The Lasso-logistic regression model was used to select features and develop radiomics signature,subjective image features model,and combined diagnostic model.The predictive performance of each model was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve,and compared with Delong test.Results:Of the 245 patients,96 were P63 positive and 149 were P63 negative.The subjective image feature model consisted of 6 image features.Through feature selection,the radiomics signature consisted of 8 radiomics features.The area under the ROC curves of the subjective image feature model and the radiomics signature in predicting P63 expression statue were 0.700 and 0.755,respectively,without a significant difference (P＞0.05).The combined diagnostic model showed the best predictive power (AUC=0.817,P＜0.01).Conclusion:The radiomics-based CT scan images can predict the expression status of NSCLC molecular marker P63.The combination of the radiomics features and subjective image features can significantly improve the predictive performance of the predictive model,which may be helpful to provide a non-invasive way for understanding the molecular information for lung cancer cells.

Objective To explore the effect of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) with helmet or facial mask on clinical efficacy, tolerability, and prognosis in patients with acute respiratory failure. Methods Fifty patients with acute respiratory failure according to the inclusion criteria were recruited from January 2018 to July 2018 in Emergency Intensive Care Unit of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. Included patients were randomly allocated into the helmet group or facial mask group. Based on conventional drug therapy, pressure support mode was performed with the interface of the helmet or facial mask. Oxygenation index, arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure, and respiratory rates were measured before and after the treatment, and the data were compared and analyzed by the repeated measures ANOVA. Tolerance score, complication rate, tracheal intubation rate, and mortality rate were recorded at each observation time point of the two groups. Results The oxygenation index before NIV, at 4 h and at the end of NIV treatment of the helmet group were significantly increased from (160.29±50.32) mmHg to (249.29±83.47) mmHg and (259.24±87.09) mmHg; the oxygenation index of the facial mask group were increased from (168.63±38.63) mmHg to (225.00±74.96) mmHg and (217.69±77.80) mmHg, and there was no significant difference within the two groups (P <0.05). The respiratory rates before NIV, at 4 h and at the end of NIV treatment of the helmet group were obviously decreased from (27.60±7.64) breaths/min to (17.92±4.55) breaths/min and (16.88±3.90) breaths/min; the respiratory rates of the facial mask group were decreased from (24.68±6.14) breaths/min to (20.36±4.25) breaths/min and (19.68±3.34) breaths/min, and the differences within the two groups were statistically significant (P <0.05). However, there were no significant differences on oxygenation index and respiratory rates between the helmet group and facial mask group (P >0.05). Patients in the helmet was better tolerated than those in the facial mask group [ratio of good tolerance 96％ (24/25) vs 56％ (14/25) (P = 0.001) and fully tolerance 80％ (20/25) vs 36％ (9/25) (P =0.002)] and had less complications (1/25 vs 10/25, P = 0.002). 84％ patients in the helmet group and 76％ patients in the facial mask group were successfully weaned and discharged after NIV treatment (P =0.480). Conclusions Similar clinical efficacy in improving blood gas exchange and relieving dyspnea were observed in the helmet group and the facial mask group in patients with acute respiratory failure. However, the helmet is better tolerant, and had lower complication rate, which is especially suitable for patients with chest trauma combined with facial injuries.

Objective To investigate the value of qualitative and quantitative characteristics of gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid(Gd-EOB-DTPA)enhanced MRI in preoperative prediction of vessels encapsulating tumor clusters(VETC)pattern in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods A total of 234 patients diagnosed with HCC by pathology were analyzed retrospectively.A total of 101 VETC-positive HCC patients and 133 VETC-negative HCC patients were included.All patients were divided into training group and validation group according to 7︰3.The training group data were used to construct a prediction model for VETC-positive HCC.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn and the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to verify the diagnostic efficiency of the model.Calibration curve was drawn to verify the calibration of the model.Results Multivariate logistic regression analysis predicted the independent risk factors for VETC-positive HCC:portal phase peripheral washout[odds ratio(OR)6.493],necrosis or severe ischemia(OR 4.756),targetoid transitional phase or hepatobiliary phase(OR 0.307),and lesion to liver signal intensity ratio(LLR)on arterial phase(OR 0.074).The AUC of the training group in predicting VETC-positive HCC was 0.790[95%confidence interval(CI)0.720-0.859].The AUC of the validation group in predicting VETC-positive HCC was 0.779(95%CI 0.668-0.889).The calibration curve diagram showed that the calibration curve(the slope was 0.91)almost coincides with the ideal curve,indicating that the prediction model had better calibration.Conclusion The qualitative and quantitative characteristics of Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI can be used to predict VETC-positive HCC preoperatively,the independent risk factors of VETC include portal phase peripheral washout,necrosis or severe ischemia,targetoid transitional phase or hepatobiliary phase,and LLR on arterial phase.

Objective:To investigate the effect and tolerance of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) with helmet in patients with respiratory failure caused by acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) and the effect on improving blood gas, alleviating dyspnea and the occurrence of complications.Methods:Patients with AECOPD and respiratory failure admitted to emergency intensive care unit (EICU) and respiratory intensive care unit (RICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 1st, 2018 to May 31st, 2019 were enrolled. After obtaining the informed consent of the patients or their authorized family members, the patients were divided into two groups: the helmet group and the facial mask group by random number table. NIV was carried out by using helmet or facial mask, respectively. During the course of NIV (immediately, 1 hour, 4 hours and at the end of NIV), the tolerance score, blood gas analysis, heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR) of patients were monitored, and the incidence of tracheal intubation, in-hospital mortality and complications were observed. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was plotted to analyze the 30-day cumulative survival of the two groups.Results:A total of 82 patients with AECOPD and respiratory failure were included during the study period. After excluding patients with the oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2) > 200 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa), with tracheal intubation or invasive ventilation, suffering from acute myocardial infarction, severe trauma within 2 weeks, excessive secretion, sputum discharge disorder or refusal to participate in the study, 26 patients were finally enrolled in the analysis, randomly assigned to the helmet group and the facial mask group, with 13 patients in each group. The PaO 2/FiO 2 after NIV of patients in both groups was increased significantly as compared with that immediately after NIV, without significant difference between the two groups, but the increase in PaO 2/FiO 2 at the end of NIV compared with immediately after NIV in the helmet group was significantly higher than that in the facial mask group (mmHg: 75.1±73.2 vs. 7.7±86.0, P < 0.05). RR at each time point after NIV in the two groups was lower than that immediately after NIV, especially in the helmet group. There were significant differences between the helmet group and facial mask group at 1 hour, 4 hours, and the end of NIV (times/min: 17.5±4.1 vs. 23.1±6.3 at 1 hour, 16.2±2.5 vs. 20.0±5.5 at 4 hours, 15.5±2.5 vs. 21.2±5.9 at the end of NIV, all P < 0.05). The NIV tolerance score of the helmet group at 4 hours and the end was significantly higher than that of the facial mask group (4 hours: 3.9±0.3 vs. 3.3±0.9, at the end of NIV: 3.8±0.6 vs. 2.9±0.9, both P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the improvement of pH value, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2), or HR between helmet group and facial mask group. The total number of complications (cases: 3 vs. 8) and the nasal skin lesions (cases: 0 vs. 4) in the helmet group were significantly less than those in the facial mask group (both P < 0.05). Only 2 patients in the helmet group received endotracheal intubation, and 1 of them died; 5 patients in the facial mask group received endotracheal intubation, and 3 of them died; there was no significant difference between the two groups (both P > 0.05). The Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the cumulative survival rate of 30 days in the helmet group was lower than that in the facial mask group, but the difference was not statistically significant (Log-Rank test: χ 2 = 1.278, P = 0.258). Conclusion:NIV with helmet has better comfort for patients with AECOPD combined with respiratory failure, and better effect on improving oxygenation and relieving dyspnea, and its effect on carbon dioxide emissions is not inferior to that of traditional mask NIV.

Objective Due to the decline of gastrointestinal function, the intakes of various dietary nutrients in the elderly population are reduced to varying degrees. Among them, the reduction in vitamins and trace mineral elements is relatively greater, resulting in relative increases in the intake of carbohydrates, proteins and fats and an increased risk of development of metabolic syndrome (MS). Methods In order to reduce the risk of MS in the elderly population, it is necessary to limit the intakes of the three major energy-supplying nutrients, mainly carbohydrates. The effects of vitamins and trace elements on MS are still controversial, and it is recommended to ensure normal intake. Dietary fiber has positive effects on gastrointestinal function, immune response, and glucolipid metabolism. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the intake. Results Mediterranean diet is currently confirmed to have a good effect on the prevention of MS, and the diet consists mainly of beans, nuts, vegetables and fruits, with appropriate intakes of cereals, seafood and dairy products. Plant-based diet based on vegetables, mushrooms and bean products is also beneficial to improving blood glucose and blood lipids, thereby preventing the occurrence and progression of MS. Owing to the significant differences in dietary habits, health status and dietary structure among the elderly population in different regions, the significance of single and specific dietary patterns for the prevention of MS is still low. Conclusion It will become a development trend to formulate diversified and individualized dietary regimen through the reasonable increases or limitations of corresponding food intakes according to different individual nutritional levels..

Background The health effects of forest therapy have been widely recognized, while the previous studies mostly focused on a single activity mode of forest walks. The effects of different types of forest therapy activities remain unclear. Objective To explore the effects of short-term forest therapy on cardiopulmonary health, psychological health, and sleep quality, and the health effects of different types of forest therapy activities, aiming to provide population empirical study data for the development of forest therapy. Methods A self-control study was conducted in a national forest park in suburb of Beijing from August to September 2018. A total of 31 healthy college students were recruited as the study subjects, with a total forest stay for 3 days and 2 nights. During the period of study, each subject practiced walking therapy, sitting therapy with five senses experience (sitting therapy thereafter), and handmade work therapy, successively. Each type of forest therapy lasted about 2 h. Changes of blood pressure, oxygen saturation (SpO₂), lung function, and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) were estimated by measuring corresponding indicators before and after the forest therapy. Psychological health and sleep quality were assessed by Profile of Mood States and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index respectively at the same time. Mixed effects models were used to analyze the changes of these health indicators. The health effects of different types of forest therapy activities were further analyzed. Results The average age and body mass index of subjects in this study were (24.5±2.6) years and (20.7±1.7) kg·m⁻², respectively. After a short-term forest therapy, the selected indicators of cardiopulmonary health, psychological health, and sleep quality of subjects were all improved. In particular, the pulse pressure (PP) and FeNO decreased by 3.02 mmHg and 1.10 ppb, respectively, while the SpO₂ and peak expiratory flow (PEF) increased by 0.65% and 0.50 L·s⁻¹, respectively, and the negative emotion and global sleep quality also presented significant positive changes (all P<0.05). Furthermore, different therapy activities presented differential effects in the health indicators. Walking therapy significantly improved pulmonary function, SpO₂, and confusion (CON) emotion, in which the SpO₂, forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV₁), and forced vital capacity (FVC) increased by 0.48%, 0.14 L, and 0.12 L, respectively, and the score of CON decreased by 0.97 (all P<0.05). Sitting therapy significantly reduced blood pressure and tension (TEN) emotion of subjects, including a decrease of the systolic blood pressure (4.45 mmHg), PP (4.19 mmHg), and the score of TEN (0.84) (all P<0.05). The diastolic blood pressure (DBP) increased slightly after handmade work therapy (ΔDBP=2.44 mmHg, P=0.016), but there were no significant changes in other indicators. Conclusion Short-term forest therapy could significantly improve cardiopulmonary health, psychological health, and sleep quality of young healthy individuals, and different types of forest therapy activities may have differential health effects.
