Objective To explore the hypertensive vulnerability of residents living in Xuzhou City to provide evidence for effective intervention. Methods Based on multi-stage stratified randomized sampling methed,a total of 4980 residents aged 15 to 69 years from 9 counties of Xuzhou City were selected and completed a standard questionnaire. Hypertensive vulnerability was compared by using Chi-square test. Results The prevalence of hypertension was 13.62% among 15 to 69 years old participants. The residents who had no idea of normal level of blood pressure accounted for 45. 26%. The residents who thought it was unnecessary to measure blood pressure every year since 35 year-old accounted for 29. 68%. Those who did not know individual's salt intake per day accounted for 57. 23%. The participants who had no information on hypertension prevention or control accounted for 21.53% and 12. 05%, respectively. The higher hypertensive vulnerability was associated with lower educational level or monthly income per capita; higher hypertensive vulnerability of patients is less than normal crowed. The rates of current smoking, alcohol consumption,salt over-intake and non-blood pressure measurement were 16. 45%, 11.10% ,30. 00%, and 32. 05% respectively. The higher educational level, higher monthly income per capita or older age crowd ,the lower rate of non-blood pressure measurement, the higher rate of alcohol consumption ; salt over-intake was different in different education levels ( χ2 = 23.37, P<0. 05 ) ; the older age group were in a higher proportion of current smokers;the behavior vulnerabilities were no difference between the patients and normal crowds. Conclusion Hypertensive vulnerability of residents living in Xuzhou City is high. Hypertension education and healthy living style should be improved to effectively prevent the development of hypertension.

Objective To study risk factors for high-normal blood pressure (HNBP) in residents of urban Xuzhou, Jiangsu province, China. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 17 500 residents in urban area of Xuzhou from June to December 2008 by cluster sampling with self-designed questionnaire to collect their demographic information and measurements of body height, weight and blood pressure. Data were approached to univariate and multivariate non-conditional logistic regression analysis. Results In total, 17 306 residents finished the survey, with an overall response rate of 98.9percent. Results of univariate analysis revealed that 13 variables such as living region, sex, age,occupation, annual average family income, history of dyslipidemia, smoking, alcohol drinking, intake of pork, and vegetables, daily length of sleeping, body mass index (BMI), abdominal obesity, all were related to HNBP ( P < 0. 05 ). Results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that living region, sex,age, annual average family income, alcohol drinking, intake of vegetable, BMI, abdominal obesity all associated with HNBP (P<0. 05). Conclusions Older age, history of alcohol drinking, increased BMI,abdominal obesity all are risk factors to prompt occurrence of HNBP, and intake of large amount of vegetables is its protective factor.

Objective To know social and demographic characteristics,behavioral characteristics,as well as knowledge-attitude-belief-practice(KABP) and its influential factors of rural community chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases(COPD) patients. Methods Cluster sampling all COPD patients of fangcun and mape township of tongshan county in 2007. A face-to-face interview was performed to investigate the COPD patients in their home,and t test,one-way analysis of variance and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the behavioral characteristics and K.ABE Results The main Patients were old person aged 60-80,with mean of(63 ± 15)years old. The active and passive smoking rate were 49.5% and 35.9%,respectively,and very significance between male and female Patients (X2 = 101. 365,P< 0. 05). 62. 9%abstained from smoking mainly owing to having COPD. About 31.9% of the patients had used the firewood and coal to cook for longer than 30 years. 24. 2% often built their body by exercise; however,only 8. 9%participated in convalescence. The mean KABP score of Patients was (38 ± 8). The Patients have lower knowledge to COPD, but give much more concerns to their own diseases. Univariate and multivariate analysis indicated that the main influential factors of COPD patients KABP were education, family attitude, income,sex and the distance between their homes and health stations. Conclusions Community COPD patients have high smoking rate,long firewood and coal cooking history,so active interventions should be took to those risk factors. KABP level of the COPD patients was not good, more health instructions including prevention,treatment and convalescing of COPD need to be gave to COPD patients.

Objective To evaluate perception and awareness of disease knowledge in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in rural area of Xuzhou City. Methods Perception and awareness of COPD, including its nature, control, medication use, impact on their quality of life, experience of its acute exacerbation, and so on, in 392 patients with COPD were evaluated with self-designed ad hoc questionnaire. Proportion and percentage were used in statistical analysis. Results According to the GLOD standards, 58 of 392 patients with COPD could be classified as stage Ⅰ (14. 8%), 164 as stage Ⅱ (41.8%), 103 as stage Ⅲ (26.3%) and 67 as stage Ⅳ (17.1%), respectively. Only 14 patients (3.6%) had heard COPD, but all of them did not know the definition of COPD and its acute exacerbation. Lung function tests and health education had never been performed for all these patients. One hundred and twenty-six patients (32. 1%) did not understand that smoking is a risk factor for COPD, 343 patients (87. 5%) had never heard that COPD could be prevented and controlled. Only 95 patients (24. 2%) did regular physical exercises. Seventy-six patients (19. 4%) in stable stage did not take theophylline regularly, and none of them took inhalers or nebulizer drugs regularly or temporally, or oxygen therapy and pulmonary rehabilitation at home. During acute exacerbation, 261 patients (66.6%) could take theophyUine or analogous drugs and antibiotics. One hundred and five patients (26. 8%) were admitted to hospital during the past year due to respiratory symptoms. Physical activities were restrained in 224 patients (57.1%), 91 patients (23. 2%) had a little bit feeling of depression sometimes and social communication was impacted in 232 patients (59. 2%). Conclusions Patients with COPD in rural Xuzhan, Jiangsu province were poor in knowledge of COPD, and their treatment during stable stage and acute exacerbation did not meet the standards. COPD had significant impact on their daily life, and education and management for the patients should be strengthened.

Objective To explore the interaction of sleep quality and depression among patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods With multistage cluster sampling, all the participants were interviewed with self-designed questionnaire, diabetes-specific quality of life scale and self-rating depression scale, and Pittsburgh sleep quality index scale. Chi-square test was used for qualitative data. Risk factors were analyzed by means of multiple linear regression or logistic regression model. The indicator of interaction was calculated according to the delta method. Results There were 944 residents involved in the final analysis, including 365 males and 579 females. The average age was (64. 0 ± 10. 2) years. Compared with patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus( T2DM) who had good sleep quality and no depression symptoms, the risk of quality of life in those with good sleep quality but depression was 2. 75 (95% CI 1. 59-4. 77); and the risk of quality of life in those with poor sleep quality and no depression was 1. 55(95%CI 1. 03-2. 33). The risk of quality of life in those with poor sleep quality and depression was 4. 97(95% CI 2. 34-9. 63). Due to poor sleep quality and depression in patients with T2DM the combined interaction index was 2. 48 (95% CI 1. 44-4. 29), the relative excess risk was 3. 42(95% CI 2. 16-4. 67), and the attributable proportion was 0. 51(95% CI 0. 32-0. 70). Conclusion A combined interaction of poor sleep quality and depression in affecting the quality of life was found in type 2 diabetic patients. When both factors existed at the same time, the interaction effect of these 2 factors was greater than the single one.

Objective:To explore the effect of cognitive-behavioral therapy on psychological stress and quality of life in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods:According to two-level cluster random design 461 patients with tuberculosis from 20 communities in Pizhou county of Jiangsu province were selected in the study from September 2018 to November 2018. The intervention group received cognitive-behavioral therapy for two months, while control group received routine follow-up. Anxiety, depression and quality of life were assessed by GAD-7, PHQ-9 and SF-36 scales, respectively. At the same time, the comparison between the two groups was conducted by independent sample t test, and the difference between the two groups before and after treatment was analyzed by paired sample ttest. Results:A total of 454 participants were finally included in this analysis; there were 230 cases in the intervention group and 224 cases in the control group. In the intervention group the scores of anxiety and depression after intervention were significantly lower than the baseline scores [(7.57±5.27) vs. (5.93±2.56), t=-4.245, P<0.01; (8.13±6.01) vs. (6.02±2.67); t=-4.866, P<0.01], and the quality of life score was significantly higher than the baseline score [(58.46±12.71) vs. (74.31±13.22); t=13.108, P<0.01]; while in the control group there were no significant differences in the scores of anxiety, depression and quality of life after intervention, compared with those at baseline [(7.62±5.41) vs.(7.65±5.38); (8.00±5.84) vs. (8.07±5.91); (59.11±13.25) vs. (60.51±13.76); t=0.059, t=0.126, t=1.104, all P>0.05]. However, only for patients with mild and moderate anxiety and depression symptoms in the intervention group, the anxiety and depression scores were decreased after intervention [(7.29±1.21) vs. (5.54±1.71), (11.99±1.31) vs. (9.17±1.55); (7.01±1.47) vs. (4.42±1.22), (11.88±1.12) vs. (8.39±2.33); t=8.056, t=10.020, t=13.558, t=8.852,all P<0.01]. Conclusion:Cognitive-behavioral therapy can relieve the psychological pressure and improve the quality of life in pulmonary tuberculosis patients with mild or moderate anxiety/depression symptoms.
