Objective: To investigate the proportion of achieving the blood lipid control target and its influencing factors among residents at a high risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), so as to provide insights into management of blood lipid among residents at a high risk of ASCVD. Methods: Residents at a high risk of ASCVD and at ages of 35 to 70 years were sampled using a multi-stage cluster sampling method from 6 counties (districts) in Shaoxing City from May to July 2021. The residents' demographics, smoking, alcohol consumption and medical history of chronic diseases were collected using questionnaires, the height, weight, waist circumference (WC) and blood pressure were measured, and the total cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerol (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and fasting blood glucose were detected. The proportion of blood lipids achieving the control target was analyzed, and factors affecting the proportion of blood lipids achieving the control target were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 1 695 individuals at a high risk of ASCVD were enrolled, including 940 men (55.46%) and 755 women (44.54%), with a mean age of (62.56±6.08) years. There were 285 participants that achieved the target of blood lipid control (16.81%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified gender (male, OR=1.962, 95%CI: 1.396-2.758), age (OR=1.037, 95%CI: 1.013-1.061), WC (OR=0.979, 95%CI: 0.964-0.995), diastolic blood pressure (OR=0.981, 95%CI: 0.967-0.994), smoking (OR=1.485, 95%CI: 1.034-2.133), alcohol consumption (OR=0.684, 95%CI: 0.498-0.941), hypertension (OR=1.428, 95%CI: 1.006-2.207), administration of hypoglycemic drugs (OR=2.326, 95%CI: 1.720-3.144) as factors affecting the achievement of the target for blood lipid control among residents at a high risk of ASCVD. Conclusions Individuals at a high risk of ASCVD with higher WC, higher diastolic blood pressure and alcohol consumption are less likely to achieve the target for blood lipid control, while male individuals with older age, hypertension and administration of hypogcemic drugs are more likely to achieve the target for blood lipid control.

Objective To explore the effect of using smart products (including smart phones, computers and other electronic products),as well as having hobbies on their cognitive function in pension agency elderly people,and analyze if there is certain protective effect on cognitive function by using smart products and having hobbies.So as to reduce the risk of mild cognitive impairment in the future. Methods By convenience sampling, 160 residents living in the nursing home of suzhou city (mean age 60 or higher) were selected, and demographic data were collected by using a homemade questionnaire, their cognitive function was investigated by using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale. Results Single factor analysis showed that the score of the elderly who often use smart products in every cognitive field and overall cognitive function were superior to those who could not use smart products,the difference was statistically significant(t=-4.47--2.15,all P<0.05).The scores of the elderly with hobbies were higher in the overall cognitive function and the other six areas except the orientation, than those who had no hobby,and the differences were statistically significant(t=-6.80--1.81,all P<0.05).After adjusting for age,gender,body mass index(BMI),cultural level,often using smart products in total cognitive function in the elderly(t=4.842,P<0.01)and executive function(t=4.008,P<0.01),attention(t=3.045,P=0.003), abstract(t=2.135,P=0.034),delayed recall(t=3.759,P<0.01),the directional(t=2.866,P=0.005)of the five areas showed significant correlation. The total cognitive function of the elderly with hobbies (t=3.496, P = 0.001) and the visual spatial execution function (t=3.316, P = 0.001), naming (t=3.241, P =0.001), abstract (t=2.643, P = 0.009), and delayed recall (t=2.073, P= 0.04) were all significantly correlated.Conclusions Often using smart products and having certain hobbies are protective factors of cognitive function,build corresponding intervention plans for the future,by cultivating the elderly hobby, guiding the elderly using intelligent products and other measures to achieve successful aging, slow the cognitive decline,thus reducing the risk of mild cognitive impairment.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of dioscin on renal injury in septic rats and its possible mechanism. METHODS The septic rat model was induced by using cecal ligation and puncture. Sixty model rats were randomly divided into model group （0.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution）， dioscin low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups （30， 60， 120 mg/kg） and dexamethasone group （positive control， 10 mg/kg）， with 12 rats per group； another 12 rats were selected as the sham operation group （0.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution）. After 15 minutes of modeling， rats in each group were injected with medicine/0.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution via the tail vein. Twenty-four hours after administration， the levels of creatinine （Cr）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin （NGAL）， kidney injury molecule-1 （KIM- 1）， interleukin 6 （IL-6）， IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in serum and malondialdehyde （MDA） in renal tissue， superoxide dismutase （SOD） activity and the protein expressions of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 （Nrf2）， heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） were detected； renal histomorphology was observed. RESULTS Compared with model group， pathological injury of renal tissue was improved significantly in dioscin low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups； the levels of Cr， BUN， NGAL， KIM-1， IL-6， IL-1β and TNF-α in serum， MDA level and protein expression of NLRP3 in renal tissue were decreased significantly （P＜0.05）； SOD activity in renal tissue， protein expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 were increased significantly （P＜0.05）， in a dose-dependent manner （P＜0.05）. The pathological damage of renal tissue in the dioscin high-dose group was similar to dexamethasone group， and there was no statistically significant difference in the levels of the above indicators （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Dioscin can activate the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway to inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome， and realize the inhibition of inflammatory factors and oxidative stress， so as to protect the kidney injury in sepsis.
