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 effects of rosuvastatin and lfuvastatin on patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) combing impaired glucose tolerance (IGT).
Methods: A total of 215 consecutive ACS patients combing IGT treated in our hospital from 2009-05 to 2011-05 were studied. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups, Rosuvastatin group, the patients received rosuvastatin10mg/day, n=108 and Fluvastatin group, the patients received fluvastatin 40mg/day, n=107. The total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels before and at 6, 12, 24 months after medication, fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2-hour postprandial glucose (2hPBG) and the number of new-onset of diabetes patients were compared between 2 groups.
Results: After treatment, the TC, LDL-C levels were decreased (6, 12, 24 months) and the HDL-C level (12, 24 months), 2hPBG (24 months) were increased in both groups. Compared with Fluvastatin group, Rosuvastatin group had decreased TC and LDL-C (6, 12, 24 months), and increased LDL-C (24 months). With 6, 12, 24 months treatment, the blood lipids reached the standard were more in Rosuvastatin group than those in Fluvastatin group as 35.3%vs 26.1%, 36.4% vs 22.0%, 43.1% vs 31.8% respectively, all P<0.05. With 12 and 24 months treatment, the new-onset diabetes patients in Rosuvastatin group were 11 and 18, in Fluvastatin group were 12 and 17. With 12, 24 months treatment, FBG, 2hPBG levels and the number of new-onset diabetes patients were similar between 2 groups, P>0.05.
Conclusion: Compared with lfuvastatin, the conventional dose of rosuvastatin could better reduce the blood lipids level in ACS patients combing IGT, the effects for preventing ACS patients from IGT to diabetes were similar for both drugs.

Objective:Explore the education content and method for the accompanying persons to enhance the capacity of taking care of patient .Methods:Life satisfaction index ( LSR-A) Scale and accompanying persons chaperone capability questionnaire are the tools of this research .This research trained the 45 accompanying persons care ability, and used before and after comparison .Results:Before the intervention , Most of the persons′life satis-faction levels was at a low level (41 persons′≤13), only 4 (8.9%) at a medium level.After the intervention, life satisfaction levels was improved (27 persons′≥14).Life sat!sfaction was improved (P<0.05).Chaperone capability situation was improved , for the P values in all the examination were <0 .05 .Conclusion:The manage-ment could strengthen the support for accompanying persons , could effectively improve their life satisfaction and im-prove their ability to accompany , thus improving the quality of patient care .The hospital should also consider the nursing ethical problems in accompanying persons education .

Objective To investigate the distribution of aquaporin 4 (AQP4) and inwardly rectifying potassium channel 4.1 (Kir4.1) inthe astrocytes from human mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE). Methods Hippocampal specimens, including 10 cases of MTLE and 6cases of non-MTLE, were observed under optical and transmission electron microscopy. The distribution of AQP4 and Kir4.1 in astrocyteswas investigated with immunoflurescence. Results Compared with non-MTLE hippocampus, the main structural changes of MTLE includedremarkable hyperplasia astrocytes, serious swelling astrocytes and distinguished astrophy neurons. In non-MTLE hippocampus, immunoflurescencesignals of AQP4 and Kir4.1 were enriched along perivascular astrocyte end-feet domain. However, it reveals significant loss ofAQP4 and Kir4.1 in perivascular astrocyte end-feet domain in MTLE. Conclusion Loss of perivascular AQP4 and Kir4.1 in the humanMTLE may help to understand the roles of astrocyte in MTLE.

Objective To investigate the expression changes of astrocytic syntrophin in hippocampus from human mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE). Methods From April, 2015 to July, 2016, 17 cases of hippocampus, collected from temporal lobectomy, were divided into MTLE group (n=13) and non-MTLE group (n=4) according to hematoxylin and eosin staining, glial fibrillary acidic protein and neuronal nu-clei immunohistochemical staining. Immunofluorescence double labeling and immunofluorescence histochemistry were used to observe the expression of syntrophin. Results The proliferation of astrocytes increased and neurons reduced in the hippocampus of MTLE group. Syntro-phin was found in the membrane and foot processes of astrocyte, that was enriched along perivascular astrocyte end-feet domain in non-MTLE group, but lost in MTLE group. While the whole expression of syntrophin was more in MTLE group than in non-MTLE group (t=5.421, P<0.001). Conclusion The distribution of syntrophin in hippocampus astrocytes may be related to the development of MTLE.

For the purpose of stabilizing and enhancing the clinical effect, the author suggested that it should develop the key technology of integrated innovation research such as origin producing area processing technology, medicinal parts and energy-saving rapid drying technology, process control technology, quality evaluation key technology, packaging and bar code identification technology to establish the quality assurance system of processed Chinese medicine, which is the key to ensure the clinical effect of traditional Chinese medicine.

OBJECTIVESTo investigate the correlation of bone mineral density (BMD) of mandibular angle, hand and total body in healthy individuals aged from 5 to 18 years.

METHODSEight hundred and thirty-nine healthy individuals from 5 to 18 years old (422 males, 417 females) in 5 primary and secondary schools in Guangzhou were divided into 14 age groups. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to measure the BMD of mandibular angle, hand and total body. The data were statistically analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis.

RESULTSThe BMD of mandibular angle increased with age. In females, the BMD of mandibular angle increased quickly from 12 to 16 years old, and its increasing rate gradually slowed down after 16 years old. In males, the BMD of mandibular angle increased quickly after 14 years old, and its increase had not been stopped until 18 years old. Females in 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17-year-old group had significantly higher mandibular angle BMD [(0.95 ± 0.19), (1.01 ± 0.17), (1.11 ± 0.17), (1.25 ± 0.13), (1.28 ± 0.14), (1.30 ± 0.13) g/cm(2)] than males in the age-matched group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between mandibular angle BMD in males and in females at the age of 18, and from 5 to 11 years old (P > 0.05). For males, the mandibular angle BMD was highly correlated with age (r = 0.696, P < 0.001), hand BMD (r = 0.779, P < 0.001) and total body BMD (r = 0.831, P < 0.001). For females, the mandibular angle BMD was highly correlated with age (r = 0.795, P < 0.001), hand BMD (r = 0.839, P < 0.001) and total body BMD (r = 0.872, P < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONSThe mandibular angle BMD in healthy individuals from 5 to 18 years old increased with age. The mandibular angle BMD was closely related to hand BMD and total body BMD.
