Tianjin Medical Journal 2014;(2):173-175
Objective To investigate the epidemiological status and risk factors in hypertensive disorder during pregnancy in Pudong New Area in Shanghai. Methods The retrospective study analyzed data of 4 056 maternal residents in the region from 2009 to 2012. The prevalence of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy was analyzed. The related factors for the hypertensive disorder during pregnancy were evaluated by multivariate unconditional logistic analysis. Results The in-cidence of hypertensive disorder during pregnancy was 5.18%, including gestational hypertension 2.49%, preeclampsia-mild 0.64%, preeclampsia-severe 1.85%, eclampsia 0.05%and pregnancy with chronic hypertension 0.15%. The multivari-ate unconditional logistic regression analysis showed that the advanced age (OR=7.610, OR95%CI:2.322-24.936), the high body mass index (BMI) before pregnancy (OR=120.715,OR 95%CI:61.867-235.540) and the excessively increased BMI during pregnancy (OR=16.219,OR 95%CI:6.219-42.316) were risk factors for hypertensive disorder during pregnancy. Conclusion The risk factors for hypertensive disorder during pregnancy are advanced age, the high BMI before pregnancy and the excessively increased BMI during pregnancy. The hypertensive disorder during pregnancy has no relation with the number of pregnancies.

Objective To analyze the distribution and evolution of the risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD) in middle-aging males, and provide the evidence for the prevention and treatment of male patients with CHD. Methods 1639 male people over 45 years old were enrolled in the study. They were divided into non- senile group (45-59 years old) and senile group (60-93 years old).The subjects over 60 years old were further divided into three groups:60-69 years old group, 70-79 years old group, 80-93 years old group. The interrelation between the risk factors of CHD and aging was analyzed. Results The prevalence rates of drinking, smoking, diastolic hypertension and low HDL-C in non-senile group were much higher than those in senile group (x2=28.80,18.35,15.72,17.84,P<0.01). In contrast, the prevalence rates of overweight, systolic hypertension, fasting hyperglycemia,postprandial hyperglycemia in senile group were significantly higher than those in non senile group. The prevalence rates of high triglyceride in non- senile group and senile group were 18.0% and 16.2% respectively(P>0.05). The prevalence rates of high cholesterol in non- senile group and senile group were 36.9% and 31.5% respectively(P>0.05). There was a significant decrease in the prevalence rates of overweight, postprandial hyperglycemia (P<0.05) and drinking,smoking, diastolic hypertension, high triglyeeride (P<0.01) in over 70-year+old males. And the prevalence rates of overweight, postprandial hyperglycemia, high triglyceride of over 80-year-old males were higher than those of over 70-year-old males (x2=10.05,4.16,5.97,P<0.01). However,the prevalence rates of systolic hypertension of over 80-year-old males were lower than those of over 70-year-old males (X2=21.25,P<0.01). There was no significant change in other risk factors of CHD at different ages of senile group. Conclusions For non-senile males, the important measures to treat the risk factors of CHD should include stopping smoking, restricting alcohol, eating low fat diet, changing bad life habits, controlling diastolic hypertension and modifying lipid. In contrast, for senile males, more attention should he paid to limiting total energy intake, increasing sports, losing weight, controlling systolic hypertension, hyperglycemia and modifying lipid.

Objective:To investigate the surgical methods and results of enlarged translabyrinthine approachin the removal of large acoustic neuromas. Method:A large mastoidectomy involved complete exposure of sigmoidsinus, the dura behind the sinus for at least lcm, the superior petrosal sinus and the middle fossa dura. Thejugular bulb was exposed and pressed downwards if necessary. The internal auditory meatus was skeletonizedand uncovered for at least 270°. The debulking of the tumor began inside the anterior and inferior poles in orderto find the brainstem and the facial nerve root as early as possible, then the dissection of the nerve was performedmedially to laterally. Intraoperative facial nerve monitoring and postoperative CT and MRI were performed in allcases. Result:Total removal was achieved in all 18 patients with tumors larger than 3 cm (mean size:4.2 cm).There were no death as well as other complications such as intracranial infection and persistent cerebrospinalfluid leakage. There were no obvious cerebral sequela. The facial nerve was preserved both anatomically andfunctionally in 14 cases, with Grade Ⅰ or Ⅱ in 8 cases,Grade Ⅲ or Ⅳ in 6 cases. Nerve interruption occurred in4 cases who all had severe facial paralysis or nerve interruption before operation. 16 patients returned to workwithin 1~3 months. Conclusion: Total removal of large acoustic neuroma could be acomplished via thetranslabyrinthine approach, with good result of facial nerve function and minimum incidence of morbidity.
