Objective:To investigate transition pattern of health status among middle-aged and elderly population in China based on frailty index.Methods:In this retrospective cohort study, middle-aged and elderly people were selected from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) in 2011; and 1 434 subjects were followed up to 2015. The frailty index was calculated from the prevalence of chronic diseases, daily activity ability and blood biomarkers, and the frailty state was divided by quartiles of the frailty index. Markov models were constructed to determine the transition probabilities of different frailty states.Results:The mean age of the 1 434 subjects was (59.0±9.4) years and the mean frailty index was 0.11±0.05. In the healthy individuals, 63.0% remained healthy after a four-year follow-up; during the same follow-up period, 40.9% of the mildly frail individuals and 23.0% of the moderately frail individuals remained in their baseline frailty status. Increasing age leaded to a gradual increase in the probability of the population shifting to a severely frailty state. Women were more likely to shift to severe frailty status than men (0.029 vs 0.019, Z=3.03, P=0.002). Conclusion:Among middle-aged and elderly population in China, the transition of health states follows a pattern where higher frailty levels are associated with lower stability. Advanced age and female gender are identified as risk factors for progression to severe frailty.

Objective To summarize the emergency treatment and nursing for patients with serious abdominal injury. Methods Preoperative emergency nursing care, postoperative intensive care, observation and nursing care of all kinds of complications were performed in 58 cases of patients with serious abdominal injury. Results 55 cases were rescued successfully, the success rate was 94.83%, 3 cases died, the death rate was 5.17%. 1 case died of hepatic failure, 2 cases died of hemorrhagic shock. Conclusions It's necessary to pay attention to preoperative emergency treatment for serious abdominal injury, preoperative monitoring of respiratory function, central venous pressure, urine volume and color and volume of the drainage fluid should be strengthened.
