The significant differences in prevalence rate of essential hypertension among the races in Xinjiang, i.e. in Kazakh, Han, and Uighur had been shown in 1979 screening. They were 6.6%, 3.5% and 2.6% respectively.The present investigation shows that some dietary constituents as well as the nutritional imbalance was involved in the causal effect in the development of hypertension.Three race people living in three quite different areas (geographic, climatic environmental conditions etc,) were investigated in April to July 1981. Blood pressures of 9,313 persons were measured. The dietary pattern and staple food items were studied for 491 persons within 69 families.The findings suggested that: l)the prevalence rate of hypertension was identical to the previous screening, 2) there was a positive correlation between the high consumption of protien (r= 0.974), fat(r = 0.622) and the prevalence rate of this disease, but a negative correlation in vitamin C intake (r = -0.620).The excessive intake of salt was accounted as a risk factor for poss- ible association with this disease only in Kazakh people who were living in various areas.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of low-dose recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) in Chinese patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods Consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke received rtPA intravenous thrombolysis within 4. 5 h after symptom onset were enrol ed retrospectively. According to the dosage of rtPA, they were divided into either a low-dose group (0. 5-0. 8 mg/kg, the maximum dose 50 mg) or a standard dose group (0. 9 mg/kg, the maximum dose 90 mg). The incidences of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage ( sICH) ( the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke [NINDS], and European Cooperative Acute Stroke Study Ⅱ [ECASSⅡ] , European Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke-Monitoring Study [ SITS-MOST ] ), 90 d mortality, 90 d good outcome (the modified Rankin Scale [mRS] score 0-1), and life self-care ability (mRS score 0-2) were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 163 patients were enrol ed, including 74 patients in the low-dose group and 89 in the standard dose group. The constituent ratios of hypertension (44. 6% vs. 68. 5%; χ2 =9. 490, P=0. 002) and diabetes (5. 4% vs. 28. 1%; χ2 =14. 216, P<0. 001) in the patients of the low-dose group were significantly lower than those of the standard group, while the constituent ratios of smoking (56. 8% vs. 38. 2%; χ2 =5. 590, P=0. 018 ) and smal artery occlusive stroke (21. 6% vs. 10. 1%; χ2 =4. 122, P=0. 042 ) in patients of the low-dose group were significantly higher than those of the standard group. After adjusting for age, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and ischemic stroke typing, multivariate binary logistic analysis showed that there were no significant differences in NINDS defined sICH (10. 8% vs. 9. 0%, odds ratio [OR] 1. 077, 95%confidence interval [CI] 0. 338-3. 436), ECASS Ⅱdefined sICH ( 9. 5% vs. 9. 0%; OR 0. 976, 95% CI 0. 296- 3. 221 ), SITS-MOST defined sICH (8. 1% vs. 4. 5%; OR 2. 269, 95% CI 0. 522-9. 852), 90 d mortality (17. 6% vs. 14. 6%; OR 1. 720, 95% CI 0. 578-5. 119), 90 d good outcome (35. 1% vs. 32. 6%;OR 0. 780, 95% CI 0. 356-1. 709), and life self-care ability (48. 6% vs. 42. 7%;OR 0. 936, 95% CI 0. 441-1. 987) between the 2 groups (al P>0. 05). Conclusions The program of intravenous thrombolysis for the treatment of Chinese patients with acute ischemic stroke with low-dose rtPA is safe and effective.

According to the level of selenium (Se) and methionine (Met) in diet, Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups, group A (normal Se and normal Met); group B (Low Se and normal Met); group C (low Se and low Met). The animals were sacrificed after 8-week feeding. The results showed that the alteration of myocardial ultrastructure was slight in group B. Decreased activities of cytochrome oxidase and succinate dehydrogcnase of myocardial mitochonria and decreased activities of GSH-Px in the blood, heart and liver in group B were observed, as compared with those in group A. But the level of TBA was higher than that of group A.The above mentioned changes in group C were extremely apparent than group A or B, indicating both Se and Met deficiency in diet may concern the etiology of Keshan disease.
