Objective To reveal the effect of fasting insuline(FINS) and insuline resistance(IR) in the process of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH). Methods One hundred and seventeen outpatients( ≥60 ys)with BPH from geriatric department were enrolled into the study. The patients were divided into groups according to their FINS and insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR). The indices of BPH, including volume of prostate ( PV ),prostate specific antigen( PSA ), international prostate symptom score (IPSS), course of BPH were analyzed in both groups. Results The PV ( [ 56. 46 ± 26. 88 ] ml vs [ 44. 84 ± 17.66 ] ml, P = 0. 017 ) and the course ( [ 18. 00 ± 6. 91 ] years vs [ 13.93 ± 7. 74 ] years, P = 0. 031 ) were significantly greater in BPH combined hyperinsulinemias(HINS) group than the BPH with normal FINS group;but we found no significant differences in the comparisons of serum PSA level or IPSS between two groups. The PV( [54. 17 ± 25.38 ] ml vs [42. 26 ±14. 15]ml,P =0. 004)and the course([ 16.58 ±7. 65] years vs [13.49 ±7. 59] years,P = 0. 036) were also significantly greater in BPH combined insuline resistance gruop than the insulin sensitivity group, again we found no significant differences in the comparisons of serum PSA level or IPSS between two groups. Conclusion FINS and IR are risk factors of progressed BPH and can promote the progress of BPH.

Objective:
To analyze the influencing factors for bladder cancer in Taizhou,and to provide evidence for strengthening the prevention and treatment of bladder cancer in Taizhou.
Methods :
A total of 500 cases of bladder cancer diagnosed in Taizhou Hospital from 2012 to 2017 were selected as a case group,and 504 patients without tumor or urinary system diseases during the same period were selected as a control group. A structured questionnaire was used to retrospectively investigate the demographic information,occupational exposure(whether they were exposed to aromatic amine,polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons,tobacco,tobacco smoke or heavy metals at work),healthy behaviors and diets of the two groups one year before admission. A Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for bladder cancer.
Results :
There was no significant differences in sex,age,ethnicity,education and marital status between the case group and the control group(P > 0.05). Patients with occupational exposure history accounting for 31.60% in the case group and 24.60% in the control group,for overweight/obesity were 37.60% and 31.74%,for smoking were 55.80% and 46.23%,for high vegetable intake frequency were 43.80% and 52.58%,for high fruit intake frequency were 55.40% and 62.70%,for physical activity were 24.60% and 31.75%,respectively. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that occupational exposure(OR=1.861,95%CI:1.229-2.836),overweight/obesity(OR=1.374,95%CI:1.021-1.863),current smoking(OR=1.664,95%CI:1.101-2.503)and previous smoking(OR=1.454,95%CI:1.016-2.066)were the risk factors for bladder cancer. High vegetable intake frequency(OR=0.731,95%CI:0.566-0.947),high fruit intake frequency(OR=0.659,95%CI:0.463-0.927)and vigorous physical activity(OR=0.566,95%CI:0.403-0.798)were the protective factors for bladder cancer.
Conclusion
Occupational exposure,overweight/obesity,current smoking,previous smoking were the risk factors for bladder cancer. High vegetables intake frequency,high fruit intake frequency and vigorous physical activity were the protective factors for bladder cancer.

Objective To explore the relationship among nurses′perceptions of patient safety culture, nursing practice environment and the report barrier of nursing adverse event. Methods Totally 513 registered nurses from six hospitals in Zhengzhou were investigated with Patient Safety Culture Assessing Scale, Work Environment Questionnaire and Report Barriers Questionnaire. Results The mean scores of nurses′perceptions of patient safety culture, nursing practice environment and report barriers of nursing adverse events were (3.85±0.55), (3.84±0.53) and (2.47±0.55). The nurses′perceptions of patient safety culture were positively correlated to nursing practice environment (r=0.393,P<0.01), negatively correlated to report barriers of nursing adverse events (r=-0.372,P<0.01). The influencing factors of nurses′perceptions of patient safety culture were colleague relationship, punitive culture, allocation of medical resources, marital status, quality control, significance of report, gender and education, which could explain 33.8 percent for the variances. Conclusions The level of nurses′perceptions of patient safety culture is higher than the average level. The nursing managers should build supportive nursing practice environment and the non-punitive reporting system of nursing adverse events. Cultivate the beliefs and attitudes of nursing safety and focus on the impact of occupational stress to patient safety in order to enhance safety nursing.

Objective: To explore the correlation between serum level of high molecular weight adiponectin (HMW-ADPN) and arteriosclerosis. Methods: Clinical data of 87 middle-aged and aged people living in home, who underwent health examinations in Xiangya second hospital from Jan 2011 to Dec 2011, were collected. According to carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV) = 9 m/s, they were divided into group A (cf-PWV<9 m/s, n=21) and group B (cf-PWV≥9 m/s, n=66). Blood pressure, blood lipid, blood glucose etc. were measured and compared between two groups. Results: Compared with group A, there were significant rise in blood pressure, levels of low density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglyceride and total cholesterol, and significant reduction in levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), serum total ADPN and HMW-ADPN in group B, P<0.05 or <0.01. Multiple regression analysis indicated that serum HMW-ADPN (B= - 4.469,P=0.011), total ADPN ((B= - 3.965,P=0.012), HDL-C(B= - 2.077,P=0.015) and systolic blood pressure levels (B= 0.045,P=0.045) were independent predictors of cf-PWV. Conclusion: Serum high molecular weight adiponectin and total adiponectin levels may be protective factors against arteriosclerosis. Its role in predicting occurrence and development of arteriosclerosis is worthy of further study.

Objective: To observe the promoting blood circulation by removing blood stasis of Lubai Capsule(LBC)(Rhizoma Phragmitis, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Radix Saposhnikoviae, Flos Schizonepetae, etc.). Methods: Acute blood stasis rat models were established with swimming in iced water and sc adrenalin in order to observe the effect of LBC on blood rheology. Mesenteric microcirculatory disturbance rat models were also established with adrenalin in order to observe the effect of LBC. Clotting time was measured in vitro with prothrombin time(PT) and kaolin partial thromboplastin time(KPTT) kit in order to observe its effects. Results: LBC could decrease the whole blood and plasma viscosity, fibrinogen, erythrocyte sedimentation and aggregation ratio of blood platelets of rats, ease the sticky condition of blood stasis rat models and prevent from forming thrombus. It could also inhibit the constraction and slowing of blood flow of thin artery, the reducing of open capillaries and change of fluid condition caused by adrenalin and improve these phenomena. PT and KPTT could be increased obviously. Conclusion: LBC can significantly promote blood circulation by removing blood stasis, because of improving blood rheology and mesenteric microcirculatory disturbance and inhibit endogenous and exogenous coagulation system.
