Objective To understand the prevalence and influencing factors of overweight and obesity in adult residents in Xuzhou City of Jiangsu Province,so as to provide scientific basis for health policies and intervention strategies.Methods A total of 39 445 participants were recruited by multi-stage random cluster sampling method,and health data were obtained through questionnaires and physical examinations.Results The prevalence of overweight and obesity was 34.60％ and 9.40％,respectively; and the standardized prevalence was 32.97％ and 8.67％.The prevalence of overweight or obesity in males was 36.73％ and 8.62％,in females 32.61％ and 10.13％.The prevalence of overweight or obesity was increased with age,although the prevalence of overweight was decreased after 55 years of age (18-:16.31％; 25-:27.38％; 35-:37.28％; 45-:41.55％; 55-:40.71％; 65-:37.64％; 75-:32.08％) and the prevalence of obesity was decreased after 75 years of age (18-:2.49％; 25-:6.41％; 35-:9.64％; 45-:11.24％; 55-:12.07％; 65-:12.45％; 75-:8.88％).There were significant difference of the prevalence of overweight/obesity by educational level (x2=178.41,P＜0.01; x2=243.59,P＜0.01),profession (x2=191.28,P＜0.01; x2=120.38,P＜0.01) and marital status (x2=431.67,P＜0.01; x2=118.43,P＜0.01).In Logistic regression,female,vegetable over-intake every day and current cigarette smoking were protective factors of overweight/obesity,while middle and old-age,alcohol drinking and big appetite were risk factors of overweight/obesity.Conclusions A higher morbidity rate of overweight/obesity was found in Xuzhou City,and comprehensive interventions should be taken for high risk populations.

Objective To explore the relationship between sleep quality and quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods Multi-stage randomized cluster sampling was used in the survey and self-designed questionaire , Pittsburgh sleep quality index scale , diabetes specific quality of life scale and self-rating depression scale were adopted. Results The poor sleep quality rate was 33.6%. Compared with the group with 6~8 h sleep duration, the scores of physical function,psychological dimension,social relations and quality of life were higher in patients with < 6 h sleep duration (P < 0.01).The average quality of life score was significantly higher among the sleep disorder participants than the other groups(56.95 ± 14.57 vs 50.11 ± 11.08 vs 44.77 ± 9.61,P<0.01). After adjusting for age, gender, complications, course of disease and depression, etc. The correlation coefficient of sleep quality and quality of life was 3.92. Among them , the sleep quality and physical dimensions of the correlation coefficient is the largest(r=0.407,P<0.01). Conclusions It can be an effective method of improving their status of life quality by ameliorating their sleep quality , especially for the physical dimension.

Objective To identify the risk factors of Burkholderia cenocepacia associated nosocomial lower respiratory tract infections (NLRTIs),and to investigate the drug resistance of Burkholderia cenocepacia strains.Methods A total of 138 patients with Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs and 40 patients with non-Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs were enrolled in the study.All patients were collected from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University during January 2009 and December 2012.Clinical data and results of drug sensitivity tests were retrospectively reviewed.Chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the risk factors of Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs.Results Logistic regression analvsis showed that combination use of 2 or more antimicrobial agents,mechanical ventilation,stay in intensive care unit (ICU) for more than two weeks,use of antacid H2 antagonist and deep venous puncture were the independent risk factors of Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs (OR =6.315,5.957,5.254,4.585 and 2.017,P ＜0.05).Burkholderia cenocepacia strains were sensitive to levofloxacin,ceftazidime and sulfamethoxazole; More than 40％ strains were resistant to cefotaxime,ceftriaxone,cefepime,aztreonam and tetracycline; And nearly 100％ strains were resistant to gentamicin,amikacin and tobramycin.Conclusion Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs are more likely to occur in patients with combination use of 2 or more antimicrobial agents,mechanical ventilation,and those who stay in ICU for more than two weeks,or received antacid and deep venous punctures,and most Burkholderia cenocepacia strains are multiple drug resistant.
