Objective To provide guidance for pre-hospital emergency treatment by studying the disease spectrum and distribution characteristics of pre-hospital emergency treatment patients in Wuxi area from 2015 to 2020. Methods The medical records of 120 pre-hospital emergency patients in Wuxi area from January 2015 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, and the disease types, gender, age, and seasonal distribution of the pre-hospital emergency patients were statistically analyzed. Results The top five emergency diseases of 16 437 pre-hospital patients were trauma (24.51%), cerebrovascular disease (19.16%), cardiovascular disease (18.33%), digestive system disease (9.70%) and respiratory disease (7.20%). In the distribution of disease types, the proportions of injuries, cerebrovascular diseases, cardiovascular diseases, digestive system diseases, respiratory system diseases, poisoning diseases and urinary system diseases in males were significantly higher than those in females (χ2=4.975, P<0.05). The proportion of male species (9 812/16 437) was higher than that of female species (6 625/16 437). From 2015 to 2020, the age group with high incidence of pre-hospital emergency patients in Wuxi area was distributed in the 50-60 years old (19.30%) and 40-50 years old (16.28%), and the least age group was 0-10 years old (2.60%). The number of pre-hospital emergency patients was 46.60% from 6 to 12 hours per day, and 10.26% from 18 to 24 hours per day. The number of pre-hospital emergency patients was the highest in summer (38.69%), and the lowest in spring (11.87%). Conclusion The pre-hospital emergency diseases in Wuxi area are mainly cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and the acute and severe diseases show an increasing trend. It is necessary to rationally allocate the pre-hospital emergency resources according to the disease spectrum and the peak months and time periods of different diseases, so as to improve the medical service level in Wuxi.

Objective To explore the characteristics of blood uric acid levels and its correlation with calcium and phosphorus levels, and glucose and lipid metabolism in obese adolescents in weight-loss training camps. Methods In this study, 357 obese adolescents aged 12-18 were selected as the research subjects, and 135 normal-weight adolescents were selected as the controls. The body shape and blood uric acid characteristics of the subjects were measured and analyzed. Further, 59 subjects were selected from the obese adolescents for blood calcium, blood phosphorus and glucose and lipid metabolism index tests to analyze the correlation between blood uric acid level and calcium, phosphorus, and glucose and lipid metabolism indicators. Results The average blood uric acid level of obese adolescents was (527.12±122.94)μmol/L, (566.58±122.51)μmol/L for boys, and (468.35±97.79)μmol/L for girls. The blood uric acid level of the obesity group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.001 for boys, P<0.05 for girls), and it was higher in boys than in girls (P<0.01). Obese adolescents with high uric acid accounted for 73.39%. The HOMA-IR of obese adolescents was 5.79±3.04. The blood uric acid level was significantly correlated with blood calcium, total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (P<0.05). Gender and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were the main influencing factors of blood uric acid (P<0.05). Conclusion Obese adolescents have high blood uric acid levels, low calcium and high phosphorus in the body, and a higher incidence of insulin resistance. There exists a positive correlation between the blood uric acid level and the body's calcium and phosphorus metabolism and glucose and lipid metabolism in obese adolescents. Clinical monitoring of lipid metabolism indicators such as low-density lipoprotein has certain reference value for the prevention and treatment of hyperuricemia.
