A cross-sectional study of 92 women with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS) was performed.The patients were composed of 4 groups according to the Rotterdam criteria and were also divided into 2 groups according to body mass index and divided into 2 groups according to insulin-releasing test.Anthropometric measurements were recorded,and hormonal profile was assessed by measuring FSH,LH,prolactin,and testosterone.The metabolic profile was investigated by measuring glucose and insulin level during oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT),then calculating the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA).Serum lipid levels,including total cholesterol,triglycerides,high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol,and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol were determirned.The result suggests that the classification according to the revised 2003 Rotterdam consensus on diagnosis does not reflect dyslipidemia in PCOS.Dyslipidemia in hyperinsulinemic group and obesity group were more severe than that in non-hyperinsulinemic group and non-obese group ; this finding needs our attention in early treatment and prevention of late complications of PCOS.

Objective:To explore the application value of combined detection of troponin I (cTnI) and creatine kinase isoenzyme mass (CKMBmass), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and fibrinogen degradation products (FDP) in the diagnosis and treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods:A total of 102 AMI patients in Wanbei Coal Power Group General Hospital from July 2019 to June 2020 were selected as the AMI group. In addition, 60 patients diagnosed with chest pain (CP) and chest distress (CD) during the same period were selected as the CPCD group, and 60 healthy patients were selected as the healthy control group. The levels of cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6 and FDP in the peripheral blood of the three groups were compared, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6, and FDP. The AMI group was given thrombolytic therapy. The clinical data of patients with different curative effects, the trend of changes in peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6 and FDP levels before and after treatment were compared, and the relationship between the above indicators and clinical indicators and curative effects were analyzed.Results:The levels of peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6 and FDP in the AMI group were higher than those in the CPCD group and the healthy control group, and the levels of peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6 and FDP in CPCD group were higher than those in the healthy control group ( P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) values of cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6 and FDP in the combined diagnosis of CPCD and AMI were 0.898 and 0.926, respectively, which were higher than those of single diagnosis. The time from onset to thrombolysis, infarct location, diabetes, diastolic blood pressure (DBP), systolic blood pressure (SBP), left ventricular end systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) on admission of effective patients and ineffective patients were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The levels of peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6, and FDP of effective patients were lower than those of ineffective patients when they were admitted to the hospital and 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h after treatment ( P<0.05). The peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6, and FDP on admission were positively correlated with DBP, SBP, LVESV, LVESD, LVEDD, LVEDV, and was negatively correlated with LVEF ( P<0.05). Multiple linear stepwise regression analysis showed that after the onset to thrombolysis time, infarct location, smoking, diabetes, SBP, DBP, LVESV, LVESD, LVEDD, LVEDV, LVEF and other factors at admission were controlled, the levels of peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6, FDP were still significantly related to the efficacy ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6, and FDP are all abnormally expressed in AMI patients. Combined detection has clinical significance for the diagnosis and treatment of AMI.

Objective To study the effect of intratracheal anti-tumor necrosis factor-α antibody(TNF-αAb)on ultra-structure of lung after cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB).Method 28 healthy rabbits were selected and randomly evenly divided into four groups:I group only received open chest operation;Ⅱ-Ⅳ groups underwent CPB.In the IV group,rabbit TNF-α Ab (2400 ps/kg)Was dropped into the intracheal tube before operation and just after releasing the aortic clamp.Saline was given to the Ⅲ group by the same way.Water volume,TNF-α mRNA,TNF-α protein,apoptosis and pathomorphological changes were measured in the lung tissues.Results TNF-α Ab can re-duce releasing of TNF-α.It could also reduce the occurrence of apeptosis and attenuate pathomorphological changes in the lung tissue.Conclusion Intratracheal TNF-α Ab markedly lessenes the injury of nltrastructure of lung after CPB.

Objective To study the relationship between salt consumption and hypertension in Chinese people,and provide basic information for developing intervention strategies.Method The data of 45 349 chinese residents aged 15 yrs and above from 2002 China National Nutrition and Health Survey was used.Results The hypertension prevalence was 18.2%.The prevalence of residents with high blood pressure value was 36.0%,which was 20.4% and 16.2% among men and women,respectively. Hypertension prevalence among people living in urban was higher than their counterparts living in rural.The prevalence of hypertension increased with salt consumption.As compared to people who consumed less than 6 g salt per day,after relative confounding factors adjusted,the prevalence ratio was 1.09,1.14 and 1.28 times,respectively,among people who averagely consumed 6~12 g,12218 g,and≥18 g salt per day,which was 1.13,1.11 and 1.30 times,respectively,among employment population.Conclusion The hypertension prevalence of chinese residents is quite high.There is significant relationship between salt consumption and hypertension.It is very important to strengthen the health education for preventing and controlling hypertension in Chinese residents.

Objective To study the time distribution of non-agriculture employed population spent in a working day in China, and to provide basic information for intervention strategies.Methods The data of 2002 China Nutrition and Health Survey were used. The information on daily activities including occupation,transportation,exercise,housework,sedentary activity and sleep was described.Results Non-agriculture employed population spent 8.41 h,0.58 h,0.09 h,3.11 h,1.40 h and 7.89 h on occupation, transportation,exercise,sedentary activity,housework and sleep,respectively.Administrator,technologist and clerks spent less time on occupation activity than service workers,production and transportation workers and others did,and they spent more time on sedentary activity.Male spent more time on occupation activity and less time on housework and sleep than female did.People in rural area spent more time on occupation activity than those in urban area,but less time On transportation and sedentary activity.Conclusion Differences in time use among different employed groups,gender and area were found,which should be considered when intervention measure is developed.

Objective To investigate the effect of Dl-3-n-butylphthalide on acute cerebral infarction.Methods In Department of Neurology in the Fifth Hospital of Wuhan from March 2013 to June 2014,100 cases of patients with first onset of acute cerebral infarction were recruited.The participants were divided into 2 groups (control group and treatment group) randomly,with 50 participants in each group.Besides general treatment,the patients of treatment group received intravenous injection of Dl-3-n-butylphthalide in acute phase and orally took soft capsule of Dl-3-n-butylphthalide in recovery phase.All the patients were followed up for 24 weeks.Neurological function and general cognition were assessed separately by national institute of health stroke scale (NIHSS),and mini mental state examination (MMSE) was applied to assess overall cognitive function.Results NHISS score was gradually decreased and MMSE score was increased in both groups.As compared with the control group,NIHSS score and MMSE score were changed significantly in the treatment group.From first onset to 24 weeks after treatment,NHISS score was decreased by 30% in the control group and 44% in the treatment group;MMSE score was increased by 17% in the control group and 32% in the treatment group.Conclusion Sequential therapy with Dl-3-n-butylphthalide improves neurological function and general cognition faster and more significant for patients with acute cerebral infarction.
