MethodsData were collected from a 2001 - 2007 Qingdao area diabetes survey,population-based cross-sectional study,and 30 712 Chinese adults aged ＞ 18 years old were enrolled.Correlation analysis of BMI,WSR,hip circumference,waist circumference,waist to hip ratio (WHR) with blood glucose,blood pressure,blood lipid were conducted.ROC curve analysis in diabetes,bypertension,dyslipidemia and multivariate logistic regression analysis were also conducted.ResultsAnthropometric indicators were related with hypertension,diabetes and dyslipidemia in both men and women.Comparing with other anthropometric indicators,WSR was found to have the largest area under the ROC curve and the best cut-off point of WSR was 0.52.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that, after controlling age, disease history, physicalactivity, sex, thediabeteshypertension and dyslipidemia risk OR of WSR≥0.52 were largest.ConclusionsAnthropometric indicators intimately related with cardiovascular risk factors in Qingdao region,and may predict and evaluate the risk of cardiovascular disease.WSR may be the best index for predicting cardiovascular risk factors in Qingdao area.The optimal WSR cut off point for identifying cardiovascular risk factors clustering is 0.52.

Objective:To analyze the different expressions of miRNAs in peripheral blood of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and the osteoclasts in rats,and to verify the key miRNAs in RA.Methods: The miRNAs expressions in monocyte and the co-cultured osteoclasts,peripheral blood of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and normal were detected by miRCURYTM LNA Array.Real time PCR was applied to verify the reliability of miRNA array.The bioinformatics software and database were applied to predict and analyze target genes.Results: miRNA array results showed that 189 miRNAs changed in RA patients compared with the normal;211 miRNAs were changed in osteoclasts group compared with monocytes group.The expressions of ten miRNAs were all abnormal in RA patients and osteoclasts in rats.The results of Real time PCR were consistent with the array.Results of bioinformatics analysis showed that the target gene of miRNA significantly enriched in signaling pathways such as VEGF,MAPK signaling pathways.Conclusion: Some miRNAs had similar abnormal expressions in different species,and these miRNAs may influence the differentiation of the osteoclasts through regulating the related signal passways.

Objective:To explore the depression of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.Methods:Patients with SLE and healthy subjects(control group) from August 16, 2020 to September 2, 2020 in Urumqi, Xinjiang were collected. The depression and sleep quality were assessed by Self rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI). The nonparametric data were represented by median (quartile spacing), and the rank sum test was used to compare the continuous variables between the two groups. Pearson correlation test was used for continuous variables, and Spearman correlation test was used for rank variables or classified variables. Statistical product and service solutions.Results:The prevalence rate of depression in the SLE group (41.9%) was significantly higher than that in healthy control group (32.1%). The difference was statistically significant ( χ2= 10.312, P<0.01). The prevalence rate of poor sleep in the SLE group (31.8%) was significantly higher than that in healthy control group (21.6%). The difference was statistically significant( χ2=3.885, P=0.049). The total score of VAS ( OR=1.366, P<0.01) , PSQI( OR=1.198, P<0.01) were the risk factor of depression in patients with SLE. Conclusion:SLE patients have a higher prevalence of depression during pandemic quarantinee-period, pain and poor sleep quality are risk factors. We need to pay attention to the psychological status of SLE patients.

Objective To look for the genes of Schistosoma japonicum related to the Schistosoma-resistance of Microtus fortis.Methods The fresh sera of Microtus fortis were used to screen a T7 phage display cDNA library from worms of Schistosoma japonicum established in our lab.The positive clones were sequenced and functionally analysed through bioinformatics.Results The specific phages binding to the sera of Microtus fortis were enriched 857-fold after three rounds of biopanning,and 58 positive clones picked at random were sequenced and 10 ESTs were obtained.BLASTn results showed that 7 ESTs had 99%-100% similarity to the genes of Shistosoma japonicum reported in GenBank and 1 EST had 82% similarity to a zinc finger protein encoden gene from Pan troglodytes.The results of these ESTs function prediction indicated most of them were involved in the regulation of gene expresion of Schistosoma japonicum.Conclusions Several target genes of Schistosoma japonicum related to the Schistosoma-resistance of Microtus fortis are obtained and those would lay foundation to expatiate the native resistance mechnism of Microtus fortis to Schistosoma japonicum.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of moderate to severe cancer-related fatigue (CRF) in patients undergoing chemotherapy of prostate cancer, and to construct a nomogram model to predict the occurrence of CRF.Methods:Using the case data questionnaire, Brief Fatigue Inventory, Social Support Rating Scale and International Prostate Symptom Scores, 724 patients of prostate cancer treated by chemotherapy in Shanghai Tenth People′s Hospital from August 2016 to June 2021 were selected and were treated with 1∶1 ratio, and the indexes of the moderate and severe CRF group (216 cases) and the non-moderate and severe CRF group (216 cases) were compared. According to the ratio of 7∶3, the envelope method was used to divide into training set and validation set. The independent risk factors of moderate and severe CRF were explored by univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis, and the risk prediction model was established and the nomogram model was constructed. The C-index and area under ROC curve were used to verify the prediction effect of the model.Results:Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that BMI ranged from 24.0 to 27.9 kg/m 2 ( OR=1.733), BMI≥28.0 kg/m 2 ( OR=3.126), neutropenia occurred during chemotherapy ( OR=1.747), chemotherapy course >6 months ( OR=1.893), moderate social support level ( OR=1.244), low social support level ( OR=2.434), mild urinary tract symptoms ( OR=1.264), moderate urinary tract symptoms ( OR=3.371) and severe urinary tract symptoms ( OR=5.297) were independent risk factors for moderate and severe CRF. The nomogram model constructed according to the above risk factors was internally verified by the training set and the validation set, and its C-index was 0.854 and 0.741 respectively. The area under ROC curve training set was 0.823, and the validation set was 0.733. Conclusions:The nomogram model can effectively predict the occurrence of moderate to severe CRF in patients with prostate cancer undergoing chemotherapy.

Heart failure is a serious threat to human health and a huge financial burden on their families.Continuous care plays an important role in the rehabilitation of heart failure. Many hospitals are actively exploring and implementing the continuous care for heart failure patients, and standardizing the quality indexes of heart failure care has become an urgent need. This article reviews the related researches on the evaluation indexes of continuous care quality for patients with heart failure from three aspects, structure, process and results and presents the research deficiencies and future research directions so as to provide a reference for the construction of targeted and standardized evaluation indexes of continuous care for patients with heart failure in the future.

Objective:To explore the current status and influencing factors of cancer related fatigue (CRF) in patients receiving chemotherapy for prostate cancer.Methods:Totally 165 patients with prostate cancer who received chemotherapy in the Department of Urinary Surgery at Tenth People's Hospital of Tongji University from March 2018 to November 2019 were selected by convenient sampling and investigated with the general information questionnaire, Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI) , Social Support Revalued Scale (SSRS) and International Prostate Symptom Scores (IPSS) . The influencing factors of severe CRF in patients receiving chemotherapy for prostate cancer were analyzed.Results:Among the 165 patients, 139 had fatigue, including 77 mild fatigue and 62 moderate to severe fatigue cases. Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the degree of CRF among patients receiving chemotherapy for prostate cancer with different appetite, duration of disease, duration of chemotherapy, level of social support, and urinary system symptoms (χ 2=7.45, 14.37, 9.93, 6.87, 25.65; P< 0.05) . Multivariate regression analysis revealed that duration of the disease, duration of chemotherapy, level of social support and urinary system symptoms were the influencing factors of moderate to severe CRF in patients receiving chemotherapy for prostate cancer ( P< 0.05) . Conclusions:CRF is a common problem in patients undergoing chemotherapy for prostate cancer, which is affected by many factors. Clinical medical staff should formulate more targeted individualized treatment and nursing plans to alleviate the symptoms of CRF and further improve the quality of life of the patients based on their actual situation.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of belimumab in the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Methods:Retrospective analysis was made in 41 patients with SLE who were treated with belimumab in our hospital. The demographic data, clinical features, laboratory test results and treatment-related adverse events (AE) were collected and analyzed. Paired sample t test and Wilcoxon test were used to compare and analyze the changes of laboratory indexes before and after treatment. Results:The follow-up time of the 41 patients was (3.0±1.0) months, and 19 patients stopped belimumab because of the Covid-19 pandemic, the duration for belimumab withdrawal was (2.6±0.9) months. The most common clinical manifestation was impaired renal function (63.4%, 26 cases), followed by musculoskeletal impairment (58.5%, 24 cases). Before and after treatment, the dose of glucocorticoid was significantly decreased [15(9, 35) mg/d vs 13(8, 25) mg/d, Z=-3.573, P<0.01], the systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI)-2000 was significantly decreased [5(4, 8) vs 2(2, 4), Z=-4.446, P<0.01], the anti-double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) antibody [enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay (ELISA)] level was significantly decreased [96(26, 300) vs 36(10, 139), Z=-3.436, P<0.01], the complement C3 level was significantly increased [(0.62±0.22) g/L vs (0.74±0.20) g/L, t=-5.454, P<0.01], the complement C4 level was significantly increased [(0.13±0.07) g/L vs (0.17±0.07) g/L, t=-5.851, P<0.01), the hemoglobin level was significantly increased [(117±15) g/L vs (125±16) g/L, t=-4.236, P<0.01) and A/G level was significantly increased [(1.30±1.36) vs (1.49±0.29), t=-5.174, P<0.01]. Four patients (13.8%) had adverse events during treatment with belimumab, including 1 case of upper respiratory tract infection, 2 cases of urinary tract bacterial infections and 1 case of herpes zoster. Conclusion:Belimumab is safe and effective in the treatment of SLE. It can significantly reduce the dosage of glucocorticoid and improve anemia, but the specific mechanism needs to be further studied.

Objective:To investigate the effect of slow intravenous infusion of low-dose mannitol on the hemodynamics of patients after cardiopulmonary bypass.Methods:Prospective, continuous inclusion of 62 patients after cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass. By random number method, they were divided into normal treatment group(group C) with 29 cases and mannitol treatment group(group M) with 33 cases. Group C was treated according to the postoperative routine treatment measures. On the basis of conventional treatment, group M received intravenous infusion of 20% mannitol injection 0.25 g/kg at 1、8、24 hours after operation, and the intravenous infusion time was 60 minutes each time. According to the hemodynamic changes during the two groups of treatment, the effect of slow intravenous infusion of low-dose mannitol on patients after cardiopulmonary bypass under cardiopulmonary bypass was analyzed.Results:In group M, CI and SVI were significantly increased after use of mannitol than before, with statistical significance( P<0.01). SVRI showed a downward trend, and the changes were statistically significant after use of mannitol( P<0.01). PAWP increased first and then decreased after operation, and the changes were statistically significant after mannitol use than before( P<0.05). RAP and MPAP had no significant changes after the first use of mannitol, but the changes after the latter two use mannitol were statistically significant than before( P<0.05). Repeated-measurement data analysis of variance was performed on the hemodynamic parameters of each group, and the results were all P<0.01. Conclusion:Postoperative slow intravenous infusion of low-dose mannitol optimizes hemodynamic status, increases stroke volume, reduces cardiac preload, improves systemic and pulmonary circulation resistance, and promotes recovery of postoperative cardiopulmonary function.
