Objective:To explore the association between the changes in ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) indices and the renal function.Methods:The retrospective cohort study consisted of 837 Chinese individuals from Department of Health Management in the Third Xiangya Hospital.The general information,anthropometry and blood biochemistry were obtained for all subjects from 2008 to 2014,respectively.The 6-year changes of 7 ideal CVH metrics defined by American Heart Association and the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were calculated.Linear regression analysis was used to study the association between the changes in the ideal CVH metrics and eGFR.Covariance analysis was used to compare the levels of changes in eGFR stratified by variations of the ideal CVH metrics.Results:After 6 years' follow-up,we did not find significant difference in ideal cardiovascular health indexes between 2014 and 2008 [(3.3±1.4) items vs.(3.2±1.3) items,respectively] (P<0.05).However,the eGFR in 2014 was significantly lower than that in 2008 [(99.8±22.7) mL/(min.1.73 m2)vs (104.3±24.9) mL/(min.1.73 m2),respectively] (P<0.01).After adjusting for age,sex,history of hypertension and diabetes,and history of drug usage (antihypertensive,cholesterol-lowering and blood glucose-lowering medication),the changes in ideal CVH metrics were positively associated with the changes in eGFR (β=0.701,P<0.01).With the improved change in ideal CVH metrics from ≤-2 points,-1 point,0 point,1 point to ≥ 2 points,the magnitude of decline in eGFR was gradually decreased,with significant difference (F=21.71,P<0.01).Conclusion:The changes in ideal CVH metrics are an independent risk factor for changes of eGFR.Positive changes in ideal CVH metrics exert a favorable effect on renal function evolution.

Objective To explore the application value of stepped screening on hypertension with self-report health measurement questionnaire by comparing the accuracy of the different levels of screening. Methods A total of 6 715 subjects with hypertension (average age of 53.47 ± 11.07 years) were selected from those who completed the physical examination in the department of health management in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University for questionnaire survey, routine inspection and special inspection for hypertension. And the patients were divided into four groups based on their hypertension risk levels: the questionnaire survey group, routine inspection group, questionnaire + routine inspection group and questionnaire+routine inspection+special inspection group. The results were compared respectively to calculate the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and coincidence rate of single inspection and joint inspection. Results Nearly 90.00%of the subjects had hypertension associated with the risk factors, while 20.83% of the subjects had hypertension associated with other clinical diseases (the highest percentage was seen in hypertension with diabetes as 14.88%). According to the guidelines of stratification, 3.41% of the patients were at low risk, 23.78% at moderate risk, 47.85% at high risk, and 24.96% at extremely high risk. Sensitivity and specificity of routine inspection were 95.56%and 45.51%in judgment of moderate risk, which became 100.00%and 45.51%after addition of questionnaire survey;as a result, thesensitivity increased. Sensitivity and specificity of routine inspection were 15.03%and 96.28%in judgment of high risk, which became 30.03% and 99.14% after addition of questionnaire survey; as a result, the sensitivity doubled. Sensitivity and specificity of routine inspection were 15.03%and 100.00%in judgment of extremely high risk, and the sensitivity increased to 94.45%after addition of questionnaire survey, while the specificity remained unchanged. Conclusion Addition of questionnaire on the basis of routine physical examination could greatly increase the detection rate of hypertension patients at different risk levels, and increase the sensitivity as well as specificity for detection of moderate risk, high risk and extremely high risk. Therefore, health information and data acquired from the questionnaire and data obtained from the medical inspection equipment are equally important and suggest health management (physical examination) institutions to take questionnaire as a necessary and primary screening in physical examination and chronic disease screening.

Objective: To identify Persicae Semen and its sibling species, and to secure the quality and clinical safety of this medicinal material. Methods: The internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) of nuclear ribosomal DNA of Persicae Semen and its sibling species were amplified and bidirectionally sequenced by DNA barcoding. Sequence assembly and consensus sequence generation were performed by the CodonCode Aligner 4.1. The genetic distances were computed by MEGA 5.0 in accordance with the Kimura 2-parameter (K2P) model, and the phylogenetic tree constructed by the neighbor-joining (NJ) method. Results: The length of ITS2 sequences of the two origin plants of Persicae Semen was between 212 bp to 213 bp. Their intraspecific genetic distance was much lower than the interspecific genetic distance with their sibling species. The ITS2 sequence possessed the character of good stability and low intra-specific sequence variation. In the NJ tree, both Prunus persica and P. davidiana were clustered into one large branch, and clearly separated with their sibling species. Conclusion: ITS2 can be used to effectively distinguish Persicae Semen from its sibling species, which can provide a reference for the iden-tification of other Chinese medicine and its sibling species.

Objective:To evaluate the performance of RapidArc technique on cervical cancer patients with various filling status of the bladder. Methods: Conventional fixed field intensity modulation radiated therapy (IMRT) is used as the benchmark. In 10 fe-males suffering from cervical cancer, two CT scans were performed for treatment planning:one with an empty bladder and the other with filled bladder. The prescribed dose was 50 Gy. The images of that with an evacuated bladder and that with filled bladder were planned in the dual-arc RapidArc and the 7-field IMRT, respectively. The implementor of the plan was the Varian TrueBeam linear ac-celerator. Dose-volume histogram was used to evaluate the data from each plan. Results:When the bladder was filled, IMRT and Rapi-dArc homogeneity were 1.05 and 1.04 (P>0.05), respectively. When the bladder was emptied, the homogeneity was 1.04 for both plans (P>0.05). With or without bladder filling, the conformity index was 0.71 and 0.73 for IMRT and RapidArc (P>0.05), respectively. The effect of V30 and V40 (volume for receiving doses of 30 and 40 Gy) on the intestine and the bladder was more favorable in a full than in an empty bladder. No significant difference between the two plans was observed. IMRT exhibited improved V30 on the rectum and on the bladder. RapidArc was much better in terms of monitor unit (MU) and deliver time. Conclusion:No significant differences in the homogeneity and conformity index between dual-arc RapidArc and 7-field IMRT were observed. Filled bladder is better than empty bladder in intestine and bladder protection in both RapidArc and IMRT. IMRT is better on V30 of the rectum and the bladder, whereas RapidArc improved MU and deliver time.
