Objective:
To understand the prevalence and influencing factors of dyslipidemia in the residents aged 40 years and over in the rural areas of Liaoning Province,so as to provide basis for the development of targeted prevention and control measures.
Methods:
From September 2017 to May 2018,by stratified cluster random sampling method,the residents aged 40 years or above from 19 villages in Liaoning Province were selected. Demographic features,height,weight,blood pressure and lipid level were collected. A logistic regression model was applied to explore the influencing factors for dyslipidemia.
Results:
A total of 10 926 residents were recruited,with an average age of (59.97±10.08)years. The crude and standardized prevalence rate of dyslipidemia was 30.96% and 29.68%. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that women(OR=1.323,95%CI:1.189-1.473),50-69 years old(OR:1.238-1.333,95%CI:1.075-1.523),a high school education or below(OR:0.585-0.635,95%CI:0.439-0.842),hypertension(OR=1.398,95%CI:1.273-1.534),diabetes(OR=2.137,95%CI:1.918-2.381),overweight or obesity(OR=2.101,95%CI:1.916-2.303), meat-based meals(OR=1.306,95%CI:1.144-1.492)and vegetables intake less than 5 days a week(OR:1.169-1.387,95%CI:1.004-1.796) were associated with dyslipidemiais.
Conclusions
The prevalence rate of dyslipidemia was 30.96% in the rural residents aged 40 years and over in Liaoning Province. People who were females,who were 50-69 years old,and who suffered from hypertension,diabetes,overweight or obese,might take their lipid levels into consideration.

Objective:
To investigate the antibacterial properties and the osteoblast-compatibility of chlorhexidine (CHX)-modified porous titanium.
Methods:
Smooth pure titanium specimen with diameter of 10.0 mm and thickness of 1.5 mm treated with alkali heat method were set as control group. Those with covalent conjugation of aminosilane were set as silane group, and those with CHX grafted by glutaraldehyde were set as CHX group. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to observe the surface morphology and element compositions were detected by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Hydrophilicity was analyzed by surface water contact angle test (

Objective:To analyze the change of differential genes and signaling pathways in high glucose induced BV2 cells, and to explore the mechanism of transgelin-2 (TAGLN2) regulating cellular inflammatory response and metabolic process.Methods:An experimental study. The cultured BV2 cells were divided into mannitol treatment (Man) group, glucose treatment (Glu) group, overexpression control Glu treatment (Con) group, overexpression TAGLN2 Glu treatment group, silence control Glu treatment (shCon Glu) group, and silence TAGLN2 Glu treatment (shTAGLN2 Glu) group. Cells in the Man group were cultured in modified Eagle high glucose medium (DMEM) containing 25 mmol/L mannitol and 25 mmol/L glucose, cells in other groups (Glu group, Con Glu group, TAGLN2 Glu group, shCon Glu group and shTAGLN2 Glu group) were cultured in DMEM medium containing 50 mmol/L glucose. After 24 hours of cells culture, transcriptome sequencing of cells in each group were performed using high-throughput sequencing technology, and significantly differentially expressed genes (DEG) were screened. |log 2 (fold change)|≥1 and P≤0.05 were adopted as criteria to screen for DEG. Gene Ontology (GO) function enrichment analysis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis and protein-protein interaction network analysis were performed. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the relative expression level of DEG mRNA. The data between groups were compared by independent sample t-test. Results:When compared with Man group, a total of 517 differentially expressed genes were screened in Glu group, which including 277 up-regulated genes and 240 down-regulated genes. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the up-regulated genes were significantly enriched in immune system processes such as nuclear factor (NF)-κB signal pathway, Jak-signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) signal pathway, while down-regulated genes were significantly enriched in glycosaminoglycan degradation and glyceride metabolic pathway. Compared with Con Glu group, a total of 480 DEG were screened in TAGLN2 Glu group, among which 147 up-regulated and 333 down-regulated genes were detected. Up-regulated genes were significantly enriched in the metabolic processes of fatty acid, glyceride and pyruvate, while down-regulated genes were significantly enriched in immune system processes such as NF-κB signal pathway, Jak-STAT signal pathway and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signal pathway. Compared with shCon Glu group, a total of 582 DEG were screened in shTAGLN2 Glu group, among which 423 up-regulated and 159 down-regulated genes were detected. Up-regulated DEG were significantly enriched in immune system processes such as TNF signal pathway and chemokine signal pathway, while down-regulated DEG were significantly enriched in pattern recognition receptor signal pathway. RT-PCR results showed that the relative expression levels of DEG mRNA Card11 ( t=13.530), Icos ( t=3.482), Chst3 ( t=6.949), Kynu ( t=5.399), interleukin (IL)-1β ( t=2.960), TNF-α ( t=5.800), IL-6 ( t=3.130), interferon-γ ( t=7.690) and IL-17 ( t=6.530) in the TAGLN2 Glu treatment group were decreased significantly compared with Con Glu group, and the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion:TAGLN2 can inhibit glucose induced microglia inflammation by NF-κB and Jak-STAT signaling pathways, Card11, Icos, Chst3 and Kynu play an important role in the anti-inflammatory process of TAGLN2.
