ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and their influencing factors in community-based schizophrenia patients in Shanghai, and to provide a scientific basis for the early identification and prevention of cardiovascular disease in this population. MethodsBased on the Shanghai community cohort with severe mental disorders in 2022, a total of 3 954 community-based schizophrenia patients were identified and included in this study through a stratified cluster sampling method. Basic information and relevant clinical data (including metabolic index data) were collected through questionnaire survey, physical examination and laboratory testing. Univariate analyses were performed using the chi-square tests, and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed to identify influencing factors of comorbid cardiovascular diseases. ResultsA total of 3 954 community-based schizophrenia patients were included, of which a total of 1 237 (31.28%) patients had comorbid cardiovascular diseases. Multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that age 60 years old or above (OR=5.524, 95%CI: 3.716‒8.214), smoking behavior (OR=1.328, 95%CI: 1.042‒1.692), overweight (OR=1.900, 95%CI: 1.046‒3.451) or obesity (OR=2.678, 95%CI: 1.439‒4.985), elevated blood pressure (OR=1.546, 95%CI: 1.294‒1.846), abnormal fasting blood glucose (OR=1.552, 95%CI: 1.322‒1.823) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol abnormalities (OR=1.283, 95%CI: 1.025‒1.606) were positively associated with the risk of comorbid cardiovascular diseases in patients with schizophrenia, while educational attainment of college/bachelor’s degree or above (OR=0.640, 95%CI: 0.450‒0.910) and being unmarried (OR=0.552, 95%CI: 0.457‒0.667) were negatively associated with the risk of cardiovascular diseases comorbidity. ConclusionAdvanced age, unhealthy behaviors and lifestyles, as well as abnormalities in blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood lipids, could all increase the risk of comorbid cardiovascular diseases in community schizophrenia patients. It is suggested to strengthen the monitoring and management of these risk factors in this population in the future, so as to achieve early detection, early diagnosis and early intervention of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum Niemann-pick type C1 like protein1(NPC1L1)and propro-tein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9(PCSK9)levels and the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)in Mongolian residents.Methods A total of 72 Mongolian patients with T2DM treated in Peking University Cancer Hospital,Inner Mongolia Hospital and the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from June 2022 to June 2024 were selected as the T2DM group,and 81 healthy people in the same period were selected as the control group.LASSO model and multivariate Logistic regression model were used to screen the risk factors of disease onset.Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the correlation between NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels and insulin function.Restricted cubic spline(RCS)model was used to analyze the dose-response relationship between NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels and the incidence of T2DM,and explored the interaction between NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels on the incidence of T2DM.Results NPC1L1(3.11±0.80 ng/L)and PCSK9(10.63±0.79 ng/L)in T2DM group were significantly higher than those in the control group(0.52±0.22 ng/L,3.21±0.17 ng/L),and the differences were statisti-cally significant(t=27.982,82.443,all P<0.05).NPC1L1(OR=2.458,95%CI=2.364～2.594,P<0.05)and PCSK9(OR=2.905,95%CI=2.541～3.528)were risk factors for T2DM(all P<0.001).The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that as NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels increased,FINS,HbA1c,C-P and OGTT levels also increased accordingly.With the increase of NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels,insulin function also decreased(all P<0.05).The results of RCS model showed that with the increase of NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels,the probability of T2DM incidence also increased(χ2=22.334,25.537,all P<0.001).No significant interaction was found between NPC1L1,PCSK9 levels and islet function indexes(P>0.05).Conclusion The levels of NPC1L1 and PCSK9 are closely related to the risk of T2DM in Mongolian residents.With the increase of NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels,the incidence probability of T2DM increases.

【Objective】 To investigate the relationship between serum reproductive hormones and sperm parameters and outcomes of micro-testicular sperm extraction (Micro-TESE). 【Methods】 Clinical data of 1 091 patients treated in our hospital during Jan. and Dec.2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the sperm concentration,the patients were divided into non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) group (group A,n=418),normal sperm concentration group (group B,n=615),mild to moderate oligospermia group (group C,n=18),severe oligospermia group (group D,n=18),and obstructive azoospermia group (group E,n=22). In group A,244 cases treated with Micro-TESE were grouped into the sperm-acquired group (Micro-TESE positive group,n=82) and non-sperm-acquired group (Micro-TESE negative group,n=162),and according to the pathological types of testicular tissue,the patients were divided into normal testicular tissue with hypospermatogenesis group (HYPO group,n=129),maturation arrest group (MA group,n=10),and support-only cell syndrome group (SCO group,n=122). Differences in semen parameters and reproductive hormone levels were compared,and relationship between reproductive hormones and sperm parameters and Micro-TESE outcomes was determined with Pearson correlation analysis. 【Results】 In the sperm concentration subgroup,the testicular volume of group A was lower than that of group B and group E (P<0.05); the levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in group A were the highest (P<0.05),but the level of testosterone (T) was the lowest (P<0.05); the levels of anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) and serum inhibin B (INHB) in group A were lower than those in group B and group E (P<0.05),the normal sperm morphology rate in group B was higher than that in group A and group E (P<0.05); the percentage of forward moving sperm in group B was the highest (P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed that sperm concentration,normal sperm morphology rate,and percentage of forward moving sperm were negatively correlated with age,FSH,LH (P<0.05),and positively correlated with testicular volume,T,AMH,and INHB (P<0.05). NOA patients were grouped according to testicular histology and pathology. The INHB in the SCO group was the smallest of the three groups (P<0.05); the FSH and LH levels in the SCO group were higher than those in the MA group (P<0.05),while the 17β-estradiol (E2) levels in the HYPO group were higher than those in the SCO group (P<0.05). NOA patients were grouped according to the results of Micro-TESE surgical treatment. There was a statistically significant difference in AMH and INHB levels between the Micro-TESE positive and negative groups (P<0.05). The binary logistic regression analysis of factors affecting the Micro-TESE outcomes of NOA patients showed AMH was negatively correlated with the Micro-TESE outcome (OR=0.904,95%CI:0.91-1.08,P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Age,FSH,LH,AMH,and INHB are correlated with sperm concentration,normal sperm morphology rate,and percentage of forward moving sperm. The INHB level was the lowest in the SCO group. The results of Micro-TESE in patients with NOA can be predicted by serum AMH level.
