Objective To explore the association of sedentary behavior and time with risk of metabolic syndrome (MS).Methods A total of 10 149 subjects were recruited from local residents aged ≥40 years old in Jiashan County by cluster-random sampling method.The data including physical activity,job,sedentary time,and sleep,etc.were collected.Height and body weight,waist circumference,blood pressure,blood glucose,blood lipid,etc.were determined.Logistic regression was used for correlation analysis.Results The prevalence of MS was 28.64% in local residents over 40 years old in Jiashan.The rate of sedentary behavior in all subjects was 67.57%,with 3 h sedentary time on average.Compared with non-MS group,the rates of sedentary behavior and sedentary time were significantly higher in MS group (P<0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that sedentary behavior was independently associated with an increased risk of MS after adjustment for age,sex,body mass index (BMI),smoking,drinking,and sedentary time(OR=1.16,95% CI 1.03-1.30,P=0.017).Increased sedentary time was associated with higher risks of hypertension,type 2 diabetes mellitus,and dyslipidemia (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).Sedentary time ≥ 5 h/d independently increased the risk of MS (OR =1.15,95% CI 1.01-1.31,P =0.034).Conclusions There is a high prevalence of MS in adults over 40 years old living in the eastern coastal rural area.MS and its related diseases are closely associated with sedentary behavior and its duration.

Objective :
To estimate the risk threshold of route index(RI)and mosq-ovitrap index(MOI)based on Breteau index(BI),as supplements for dengue fever risk monitoring in specific habitats.
Methods :
Two towns and two streets were selected from nine towns(streets)in Jiashan County,and then one village(community)was selected from each of them as a Aedes albopictus monitoring site. The BI,RI and MOI were employed at the same time and area from April to October in the year 2018. Linear regression models were built with RI,MOI and BI to calculate the dengue risk threshold of RI and MOI according to BI.
Results :
The linear regression model of BI(X)and RI(Y)was Y=0.145+0.662X(P<0.05),of BI(X)and MOI(Y)was Y=3.423+0.524X(P<0.05). If BI=5(having risk of transmission of dengue fever),then RI=3.455(95%CI:1.717-5.198),MOI=6.043(95%CI:-0.327-12.417). If BI=10(having risk of outbreak),then RI=6.765(95%CI:5.018-8.518),MOI=8.663(95%CI:2.260-15.071). If BI=20(having risk of epidemic),then RI=13.385(95%CI:11.326-15.453),MOI=13.903(95%CI:6.352-21.461).
Conclusion
The dengue fever risk threshold of RI estimated by BI had a narrow 95%CI and could be applied for dengue fever risk assessment,while the risk threshold of MOI had a wide 95%CI and the application value needed further study.

Objective:To investigate the effect of lateral tibial periosteum distraction on diabetic foot and vasculitis foot.Methods:A retrospective analysis of 13 patients (16 feet) who received lateral tibial periosteal distraction between June 2019 and May 2020 were included in the study. 9 males and 4 females; aged 39-77 years (average 66 years); left foot 7 cases, right foot 9 cases. 5 cases were patients with diabetic foot, 1 case was diabetic foot with arteriosclerosis obliterans, 2 cases were thromboembolic vasculitis, and 5 cases were arteriosclerosis obliterans. The tibial periosteum was dissected and a distraction device was placed. In the 3 patients with foot ulcers, tibial periosteum distraction devices were placed on the severer side. The periosteal distraction began on the third day after surgery, about 0.75 mm/d, the adjustment was done usually in two weeks. Two weeks later, the stretch plate was removed surgically. The followings were evaluated: visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score, foot peripheral oxygen saturation, foot capillary filling test, lower extremity arterial CT angiography (CTA), etc.Results:All 13 patients were followed up for 2-12 weeks, with an average of 3.85 weeks. VAS pain score: the average pain score of 13 patients with preoperative foot pain was 5.31±1.84 (range, 2-9) points, and 2 weeks after surgery, the average value was 2.46±1.39 (range, 1-6) points with statistical significance ( t=6.124, P<0.001) ; peripheral foot oxygen saturation: the average preoperative blood oxygen saturation of 12 patients was 87.83%±14.83% (range, 50%-98%), 1 patient was not detected before surgery, and 2 weeks after operation, the average blood oxygen saturation was 92.33%±7.91% (range, 75%-99%). There was no significant difference between them ( t=1.124, P=0.285). The foot skin temperature of 10 patients was 35.68±0.85 ℃ (range, 34.00-36.60 ℃) before surgery and 36.23±0.46 ℃ (range, 35.50-36.90 ℃) after surgery, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.197, P=0.008) . Capillary filling test: 2 weeks after operation, the capillary filling response was significantly improved. All 13 patients had improved CTA of both lower extremity arteries before operation, and 11 patients had CTA taken back after two weeks of operation. Compared with preoperative CTA, new vascular network was found in the operation limb. In addition to 1 patient with thromboangiitis obliterans (mainly suffering from foot pain, no wound symptoms), 2 of 12 patients with heart failure, renal failure and other basic diseases did not heal, and the wounds of the other 10 patients had improved significantly 1 month later. Conclusion:Lateral tibia periosteum distraction can be used to treat chronic ischemic diseases of lower extremities with satisfactory postoperative results.

OBJECTIVETo explore the relationship between level of glucose metabolism and risk of cancer incidents.
METHODS10 079 aged ≥ 40, local residents in Jiashan were enrolled by stratified cluster sampling method in 2011. All the subjects accepted retrospective investigation on incidents of diabetes mellitus and cancers plus blood testing for level of glucose metabolism. Differences between glucose metabolism level and cancer incidence were analyzed by trend Chi-square test.
RESULTSThe prevalence of cancers in female diabetes mellitus patients was 268.79 per 100 000, higher than in males-124.31 per 100 000 (χ² = 4.012 2, P < 0.05). The incidence rates of cancers in groups of normal glucose regulation (NGR), impaired glucose regulation (IGR), and diabetes mellitus (DM) patients were 77.32 per 100 000, 115.40 per 100 000 and 204.08 per 100 000, respectively. The incidence of cancers in local residents who were older than 40 years had increased with the decrease of glucose regulation ability. The subjects were divided into three groups by FPG, 2h-PG and HbA1c levels respectively and the incident risks on cancers under each index increased 30.0%, 39.0% and 62.4%, respectively. Compared to the general population, the cancer incidence in DM group increased 1.67 times and 2.62 times increase in women but did not show significant difference in men (χ² = 0.524 0, P > 0.05). Breast and colorectal cancers were the most common tumors that accompanied with DM, and their incidence increased along with the decrease of glucose regulation ability. The incidence rates of breast and colorectal cancer in T2DM were 2.36 and 1.87 times more than in general population, and the incidence rates of female patients had an increase of 2.53 and 6.74 times, respectively.
CONCLUSIONThe cancer incidence was higher in DM group than in the non-DM group while the incidence rates of both breast and colorectal cancer were relevant to the levels of glucose metabolism.
