Objective:
To investigate the current status of pulmonary ventilation function and its influencing factors among the population aged ≥35 years at high risk for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Baoshan District, Shanghai Municipality, so as to provide the evidence for formulating regional COPD prevention and control strategies.
Methods:
From January 2023 to July 2025, a convenience sampling method was used to recruit COPD high-risk individuals among permanent residents aged ≥35 years in Baoshan District. Demographic information including gender and age was collected through the Shanghai New Chronic Disease Integrated Information System. Height, weight, and waist circumference were measured. Pulmonary ventilation function was assessed by measuring forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), peak expiratory flow (PEF), peak inspiratory flow (PIF), and instantaneous forced expiratory flow at 50% of FVC (FEF50). Multivariable logistic regression model was used to analyze influencing factors for pulmonary ventilation function abnormalities among COPD high-risk population.
Results:
A total of 5 763 COPD high-risk individuals were surveyed, including 2 970 males (51.54%) and 2 793 females (48.46%). The values of FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, PEF, PIF, and FEF50 were (2.12±0.68) L, (2.83±0.85) L, (75.33±12.77)%, (4.58±1.93) L/s, (2.62±1.23) L/s, and (2.54±1.26) L/s, respectively. A total of 1 399 individuals (24.28%) were identified with pulmonary ventilation function abnormalities. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that female (OR=0.612, 95%CI: 0.526-0.713), junior college or above (OR=0.705, 95%CI: 0.516-0.962), urban residence (OR=0.477, 95%CI: 0.401-0.568), regular physical activity (OR=0.655, 95%CI: 0.575-0.745), and higher body mass index (OR=0.946, 95%CI: 0.926-0.967) were associated with a lower risk of pulmonary ventilation function abnormalities among COPD high-risk individuals. Conversely, current smoking (OR=1.356, 95%CI: 1.075-1.709), exposure to secondhand smoke (OR=1.493, 95%CI: 1.259-1.770), and exposure to famine during adolescence (OR=1.958, 95%CI: 1.046-3.665) were associated with a higher risk.
Conclusion
The overall status of pulmonary ventilation function among COPD high-risk population in Baoshan District is moderate, with a relatively high abnormality rate, which is mainly influenced by gender, educational level, region, regular physical activity, body mass index, tobacco exposure, and famine exposure.

Objective:
To investigate the prevalence of diabetes among individuals at high risk of diabetes in Baoshan District, Shanghai Municipality, so as to provide insights into community-based diabetes management.
Methods:
Permanent residents at ages of 35 years and older were sampled from Baoshan District using a multistage stratified cluster sampling method, and residents at a high risk of diabetes were screened using the Form for Risk Assessment of Diabetes among Community Residents in Shanghai Municipality. Participants' demographics, disease history and history of medication were collected using questionnaire surveys, and height, body weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, and blood pressure were measured. Diabetes was screened using fasting blood glucose and glucose tolerance test. The factors affecting the development of diabetes were identified among high-risk residents for diabetes using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 3 107 residents at a high risk for diabetes were enrolled, including 1 165 men (37.50%) and 1 942 women (62.50%) with a mean age of (63.58±9.77) years. The prevalence of diabetes was 21.69% among the study subjects, and multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that men (OR=1.689, 95%CI: 1.357-2.104), age (40 years-, OR=4.833, 95%CI: 1.036-22.553; 50 years-, OR=2.627, 95%CI: 1.432-4.819; 60 years-, OR=1.551, 95%CI: 1.119-2.150; 70 years and older, OR=1.579, 95%CI: 1.232-2.025); high school/technical secondary school (OR=2.677, 95%CI: 1.636-4.380), overweight/obesity (OR=1.891, 95%CI: 1.447-2.472), hypertension (OR=1.306, 95%CI: 1.049-1.626), dyslipidemia (OR=1.428, 95%CI: 1.114-1.831), history of impaired glucose regulation (OR=15.161, 95%CI: 11.827-19.434) and family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus (OR=2.092, 95%CI: 1.619-2.704) caused an increased risk of diabetes among residents at a high risk diabetes.
Conclusions
The prevalence of diabetes was 21.69% among high-risk populations of diabetes in Baoshan District. Gender, age, educational level, overweight/obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, history of impaired glucose regulation and family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus are factors affecting the development of diabetes among high-risk populations.
