Chinese Journal of cardiovascular Rehabilitation Medicine 2012;21(6):571-574
Objective: To observe influence of aerobic exercise on blood pressure in patients with white coat hypertension (WCH). Methods: A total of 51 newly diagnostic WCH patients were randomly divided into exercise group (n=26) and WCH control group (n=25). Patients in exercise group received aerobic exercise training (walking on flat ground by constant speed, twice a day, 50~80 min each time for three months); The WCH control group did not exercise. Office blood pressure (OBP) and 24h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) were measured in both groups before and three months after treatment. Results: There were no significant difference in indexes of OBP and ABPM between two groups before treatment (P>0.05). After three months, compared with before treatment, indexes of OBP and ABPM significantly decreased in exercise group and they were significantly lower than those of WCH control group in OBP [OSBP: (132.54±17.60) mmHg vs. (143.68±20.35) mmHg, ODBP: (89.12±18.39) mmHg vs. (92.75±17.24) mmHg] and ABPM [ mSBP:(121.57±20.86) mmHg vs. (128.06±19.45) mmHg, mDBP:(76.24±15.28) mmHg vs. (84.55±17.31) mmHg; dSBP:(124.27±22.50) mmHg vs. (130.85±24.61) mmHg, dDBP:(77.95±18.42) mmHg vs. (82.36±17.59) mmHg], P<0.05~0.01. Conclusions: Aerobic exercise can significantly improve blood pressure in patients with white coat hypertension.

Objective To investigate the effect of vascular inner diameter and artery flow velocity on the flow of internal arteriovenous fistula. Methods Sixty-two patients received the operation of internal fistula were enrolled. According to the inner diameter (Group A: d ≤ 1.5 mm, Group B: 1.5 mm < d ≤ 2.0 mm, Group C: 2.0 mm < d ≤ 3.0 mm, Group D: d > 3.0 mm), the patients were divided into four groups in terms of artery flow velocity (Group a: v ≤ 20 cm/s, Group b:20 cm/s < v≤50 cm/s, Group c:50 cm/s < v ≤ 100 cm/s, Group d:v > 100 cm/s), the differences of fistula and dialysis flow for two months were analyzed among various groups. Results Compared with Group B/b, patients in Group A/a had higher risk of operation failure, with lowered inner fistula flow and dialysis flow. In terms of inner venous diameter , there were significant differences between Group B and C. Conclusions It is not recommended to carry out the inner vascular fistula operation. Followed with the thickening and increasing of inner artery diameter and artery flow , the inner fistula flow and the dialysis flow increase. The inner venous diameter has no significant impact on the inner fistula flow.

Objective:
To investigate the prevalence of depression and anxiety among transgender populations and the correlation with defense mechanism, so as to provide the evidence for improving mental health among transgender populations.
Methods:
Transgender populations that visited Psychosexual Outpatient Department of Beijing Huilongguan Hospital for the first time from December 2020 to December 2021 were enrolled. Participants' demographics, depression, anxiety and type of defense mechanisms were collected using self-designed questionnaires, Self-rating Depression Scale, Self-rating Anxiety Scale and Defense Style Questionnaire (DSQ). Factors affecting depression and anxiety were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
Totally 126 transgender individuals were enrolled, including 95 men (75.40%) with a mean age of (21.53±4.55) years and 31 women (24.60%) with a mean age of (23.58±5.55) years. The prevalence of depression was 46.83% among participants, including 44.07% of participants with mild depression, 30.51% with moderate depression and 25.42% with severe depression, and the prevalence of anxiety was 26.19% among participants, including 60.61% of participants with mild anxiety, 21.21% with moderate anxiety and 18.18% with severe anxiety. The detection of depression was 54.74% among men and 22.58% among women (P<0.05), and the detection of both depression (62.79% vs. 38.55%, P<0.05) and anxiety (41.86% vs. 18.07%, P<0.05) was significantly higher among transgender populations with self-injury or suicide behaviors than among those without. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that immature defense mechanisms increased the risk of depression (OR=1.034, 95%CI: 1.018-1.051) and anxiety (OR=1.031, 95%CI: 1.014-1.049) among transgender populations, while mature defense mechanisms reduced the risk of depression (OR=0.887, 95%CI: 0.832-0.946) and anxiety (OR=0.878, 95%CI: 0.821-0.938) among transgender populations.
Conclusions
The prevalence of depression and anxiety was 46.83% and 26.19% among transgender populations included in this study. Mature defense mechanisms are beneficial to reduce the risk of depression and anxiety among transgender populations.
