Objective:To analyze the prevalence of chronic diseases, the level of chronic disease prevention and control literacy and its influencing factors among middle-aged and elderly residents in Wenzhou from 2020 to 2023.Methods:Based on a cross-sectional research design, 19 528 usual residents aged 45-69 were retrospectively selected with a multi-stage stratified random sampling method from the health literacy monitoring survey in Wenzhou from 2020 to 2023. The χ2 tests and trend χ2 tests were employed to analyze chronic disease prevalence rates and health literacy possession rates across different population subgroups. Binary logistic regression models were used to identify determinants of chronic disease prevention health literacy among middle-aged and elderly residents in Wenzhou. The results were standardized using data from Wenzhou′s Seventh National Population Census. Results:The numbers of middle-aged and elderly respondents was 5 528, 4 822, 4 575 and 4 603 from 2020 to 2023, respectively, and the prevalence of self-rated chronic diseases was 39.56%, 37.33%, 41.29% and 39.00%, respectively (the standardized rate was 33.49%, 33.58%, 36.43% and 35.34%, respectively) in the each year, and the rates of chronic disease prevention and control literacy was 24.76%, 27.98%, 24.44% and 28.13%, respectively (the standardized rate was 27.95%, 30.11%, 27.57%, 29.78%, respectively). The rates of chronic disease prevention and control literacy was on an upward trend in middle-aged and elderly respondents in Wenzhou from 2020 to 2023 ( χ2trend=5.997, P=0.014). From 2020 to 2023, chronic disease prevention health literacy showed a positive educational gradient, with significantly higher levels observed among more educated populations (both P<0.05). Except for 2020, the residents with household income≥30 000 yuan had a higher chronic disease prevention and control literacy than those with household income less than 30 000 yuan (both P<0.05); in 2021 and 2022, the chronic disease prevention and control literacy in the people of 45-59 years was higher than that in the individuals of 60-69 years (both P<0.05); in 2020 and 2022, the rural residents had a higher chronic disease prevention and control literacy than the urban residents, and the rates of chronic disease prevention and control literacy of employees or retirees in government institutions/doctors/teachers were higher than that in the peasants (both P<0.05); in 2023, the chronic disease prevention and control literacy of the smokers was lower than that in the non-smokers ( P=0.014). Conclusions:The prevalence of chronic diseases among the middle-aged and elderly residents in Wenzhou is relatively low, people with chronic diseases, especially those with multiple chronic diseases, have a low level of chronic disease prevention and control literacy. To prevent and control chronic diseases among them, interventions should be differentiated by the chronic disease status, occupation and household income.

Objective·To analyze the influencing factors of left ventricular mass index(LVMI)in patients with essential hypertension,and explore the relationship between aldosterone levels and left ventricular hypertrophy(LVH).Methods·A total of 155 patients with essential hypertension,hospitalized in the Hypertension Department of the Northern Campus of Ruijin Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine,from January 2013 to December 2019,and excluded from primary aldosteronism by saline load test(post-saline suppression plasma aldosterone<60 pg/mL),were enrolled.General clinical data(age,gender,smoking status,duration of hypertension,etc.),physical examination data(blood pressure and body mass index),blood biochemistry(renal function,electrolytes,fasting blood glucose,and lipids),urinary sodium,and relevant hormones(basal and activated aldosterone,basal and activated renin,urinary aldosterone,post-saline suppression aldosterone,etc.)were collected.LVMI was evaluated by echocardiography.Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the linear association between LVMI and each variable.Binary Logistic regression models were applied to screen independent risk factors for LVH.Multiple linear regression models were used to assess the impact of variables on LVMI.Results·The mean age of the 155 patients was(46.85±11.08)years,with 51.6%being male.Pearson correlation analysis showed that LVMI was significantly positively correlated with post-saline suppression aldosterone(r=0.334,P<0.001),age(r=0.184,P=0.032),duration of hypertension(r=0.241,P=0.005),systolic blood pressure(r=0.280,P=0.001),and pulse pressure(r=0.339,P<0.001).No significant correlations were found with diastolic blood pressure,body mass index,fasting blood glucose,total cholesterol,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,triglyceride,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol,urinary sodium,basal aldosterone,activated aldosterone,or urinary aldosterone.After adjusting for confounders,including gender,smoking history,age,duration of hypertension,body mass index,pulse pressure,systolic blood pressure,fasting blood glucose,and total cholesterol,binary Logistic regression showed that each 1 pg/mL increase in post-saline suppression aldosterone was associated with a 5.1%increased risk of LVH(OR=1.051,95%CI 1.016?1.088,P=0.004).Multiple linear regression identified suppressed aldosterone(β=0.359,P<0.001),duration of hypertension(β=0.168,P=0.046),and pulse pressure(β=0.226,P=0.008)as independent influencing factors for LVMI.Conclusion·Suppressed aldosterone is an independent influencing factor for LVH in patients with essential hypertension.

Objective: To evaluate the dietary quality of residents in Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the basis for future health education and nutrition intervention programs. Methods: A stratified multi-stage random sampling method was used to select residents aged 18 years and older in 6 counties (cities, districts) of Wenzhou City as the study subjects, “24-hour dietary review for 3 consecutive days” was adopted to collect dietary intake, and the diet balance index (DBI_16) scoring method was applied to evaluate the dietary quality. Results: This study analyzed the dietary quality of 406 residents in Wenzhou City, including 197 males (48.52%) and 209 females (51.48%). The majority of the residents were aged 18-44 years (254 residents, 62.56%). The median DBI total score was -31 (interquartile range, 8), and 404 residents had insufficient dietary intake, accounting for 99.51%. The median DBI positive score was 5 (interquartile range, 6), and 288 residents had appropriate dietary intake, accounting for 70.94%. The median DBI negative score was 37 (interquartile range, 6), and 210 residents had a high level of insufficient dietary intake, accounting for 51.72%. Five dietary patterns, namely A, B, C, E and F, were identified, with pattern B being the most dominant, accounting for 75.62% of the total (307 individuals). Patterns D, H, I and G were not observed. Conclusions The dietary quality of the residents surveyed indicates the existence of dietary imbalances, mainly manifesting as inadequate intake. It is recommended to strengthen nutritional and health guidance.

Objective:To investigate the value and clinical significance of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) in early pregnancy (8-12 gestational weeks) as a predictor of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) among women with different pre-pregnancy body mass index (pre-BMI) categories.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted including 9 710 singleton pregnant women (FPG levels in early pregnancy ≤5.6 mmol/L) who underwent prenatal screening and delivery in Yuyao People's Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022. Participants were stratified based on their pre-BMI as follows: <18.5 ( n=1 406), ≥18.5 to <25.0 ( n=7 162), ≥25.0 to <30.0 ( n=978), and ≥30.0 kg/m 2 ( n=164). Within each pre-BMI category, women were further divided into four groups based on FPG levels in early pregnancy (<4.5, ≥4.5 to <4.8, ≥4.8 to <5.1, and ≥5.1 mmol/L). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to identify risk factors for GDM, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was applied to evaluate the efficacy of FPG in early pregnancy based on different pre-BMI in predicting GDM. Results:The overall incidence of GDM in the singleton pregnancy women with FPG levels in early pregnancy ≤5.6 mmol/L was 12.3% (1 197/9 710). For a pre-BMI of <18.5 kg/m 2, the ORs with 95% CIs for GDM within the different FPG categories (<4.5, ≥4.5 to <4.8, ≥4.8 to <5.1, and ≥5.1 mmol/L) were 0.041 (95% CI: 0.015-0.409), 1.834 (95% CI: 1.089-3.088), 6.779 (95% CI: 4.041-11.371), and 13.723 (95% CI: 5.560-33.871), respectively. For pre-BMI of ≥18.5 to <25.0 kg/m 2, the respective the ORs with 95% CIs were 0.048 (95% CI: 0.012-0.203), 2.573 (95% CI: 2.091-3.168), 9.023 (95% CI: 7.240-11.245), and 9.158 (95% CI: 6.484-12.937). For pre-BMI of ≥25.0 to <30.0 kg/m 2, the ORs with 95% CIs were 0.108 (95% CI: 0.053-0.446), 1.698 (95% CI: 1.064-2.654), 7.537 (95% CI: 5.285-13.080), and 9.994 (95% CI: 5.613-18.218). For pre-BMI of ≥30.0 kg/m 2, the ORs with 95% CIs were 0.098 (95% CI: 0.072-1.015), 2.888 (95% CI: 0.911-9.157), 13.674 (95% CI: 3.480-53.736), and 20.509 (95% CI: 6.674-63.019). The optimal cutoff value of FPG in early pregnancy for GDM prediction was 4.7 mmol/L with an area under the curve of 0.752, the risk of GDM significantly increased with FPG levels ≥4.7 mmol/L in early pregnancy across all pregnant women ( OR=17.356, 95% CI: 13.757-21.896, P<0.001). Conclusions:In the singleton pregnancy women with FPG levels in early pregnancy ≤5.6 mmol/L, FPG in early pregnancy is an independent risk factor for the occurrence of GDM; for pregnant women stratified by the same pre-BMI, the risk of developing GDM increases progressively with the rise of FPG in early pregnancy. FPG in early pregnancy has a certain value in predicting the occurrence of GDM.

Pharmacy active consultation refers to the spontaneous activity that clinical pharmacists take the initiative to go to clinical departments to help doctors solve problems related to drug use in clinical practice ，put forward drug treatment suggestions or provide pharmaceutical services ，and form medical documents . The difference between pharmacy active consultation and pharmacy consultation is that the latter is generally proposed by the clinician ，who sends a consultation invitation to the pharmacy department in the hospital information system ，and the clinical pharmacist will go to the consultation after receiving it ，while the former is a pharmaceutical service mode that the clinical pharmacist takes the initiative to carry out in the clinical department . On the basis of routine pharmacy active consultation ，clinical pharmacists in our hospital also further carried out a special active consultation mode （including prompt special active consultation for patients with multidrug resistance bacteria positive ，active monitoring and intervention for patients with drug -induced liver injury ），and patient pharmaceutical supervision in the form of return visit of pharmacy active consultation . Pharmacy active consultation and its special active consultation possess the characteristics of initiative ， early and extensive coverage ，as a supplement to resident clinical pharmacy services . Pharmacy active consultation could help the pharmacy department to improve service efficiency ，provide a new perspective for medical institutions to carry out efficient pharmaceutical services ，and supply new ideas for the reform of pharmaceutical services in China .
