Objective: To evaluate the effect of community comprehensive management model intervention among patients with dyslipidemia, so as to provide the reference for optimizing community management strategies and improving the target achievement rate for blood lipids among this population. Methods: From May to June 2023, a multi-stage stratified random sampling method was employed to select patients with dyslipidemia from primary healthcare institutions in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province. Eligible participants were randomly assigned to either a control group or an intervention group. The control group received routine management, while the intervention group was subjected to a community comprehensive management model in addition to the routine care. Both groups were followed up for 24 months. Data on demographic characteristics, lifestyle behaviors, physical examination indices, and blood biochemical indicators were collected at baseline and after the intervention through questionnaires, physical examinations, and laboratory tests. Changes in obesity rate, central obesity rate, target achievement rates for blood lipids, blood pressure, and blood glucose, as well as lifestyle modifications, were analyzed. Differences between the two groups before and after the intervention were assessed using generalized estimating equations (GEE). Results: The control group consisted of 560 patients, including 303 females (54.11%) and 430 individuals aged ≥65 years (76.79%). The intervention group also included 560 patients, with 300 females (53.57%) and 431 individuals aged ≥65 years (76.96%). Before the intervention, no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of gender, age, educational level, history of chronic diseases, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk stratification (all P>0.05). After 24 months of intervention, interaction effects between group and time were observed for obesity rate, central obesity rate, target achievement rate for blood lipids, target achievement rate for blood glucose, composite target achievement rate, physical activity rate, and medication adherence (all P<0.05). Specifically, the intervention group demonstrated lower rates of obesity and central obesity, and higher target achievement rate of blood lipids, target achievement rate of blood glucose, composite target achievement rate, physical activity rate, and medication adherence compared to the control group. Conclusion The community comprehensive management model contributed to improvements in multiple metabolic parameters (including body weight, waist circumference, blood lipids, and blood glucose) among patients with dyslipidemia, and was associated with increased physical activity rate and medication adherence.

Objective To investigate the status of population dynamics and distribution changes of Aedes aegypti in Guangdong Province.Methods Continuous monitoring was conducted from May 2018 to July 2024 in Wushi Town and Qishui Town,Leizhou City,Zhanjiang City,Guangdong Province.Additionally,a survey of the distribution of Ae.aegypti along the Leizhou Peninsula coast was carried out.Results The density of Ae.aegypti in Zhanjiang showed a gradual decline from 2018 to 2024.The last detection of adult Ae.aegypti in Wushi Town was in September 2021,and the last larva was found in October 2023.No Ae.aegypti was detected in Qishui Town during surveys from 2021 to 2024.A survey of 18 coastal villages in the Leizhou Peninsula revealed no detections of Ae.aegypti.Conclusions This study provides a basis for understanding the distribution and population density fluctuations of Ae.aegypti,assessing its invasion risk,and scientifically conducting relevant prevention and control efforts.

Objective This study aimed to provide an effective scientific basis for prevention and control of cockroaches on aircrafts by identifying cockroach-carried pathogens,and assess the insecticidal efficacy of gel bait mediated cockroach control on aircrafts,to provide technical guidance for aircraft disinsection.Methods Cassette-trapping was used to trap cockroaches,and the carried pathogens were detected using bacterial cultivation techniques.The gel bait mediated killing rate was calculated after 1,7,and 30 d by field application of gel bait.Results A total of 411 cockroaches were captured,and all were identified as Blattella germanica.26 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated from the trapped cockroaches.The killing rates of cockroaches were 58.8％-96.3％with 1-30 day application of gel bait.Statistically significant differences were observed in cockroach killing rates on different days(χ2=58.95,P<0.01).Conclusions B.germanica carry a large variety of pathogenic bacteria and opportunistic pathogens and are thus important infectious disease carriers.Gel bait agents have proven to be very effective against cockroaches on aircrafts.

Objective To analyze the application value of multi-slice spiral CT(MSCT)in the preoperative diagnosis and classification of inguinal hernia.Methods The clinical data of 130 patients with inguinal hernia admitted to our hospital were collected,and all patients underwent inguinal hernia repair.MSCT examination was conducted for the inguinal hernia of the patients,and the efficacy of MSCT in the diagnosis of different types of inguinal hernia was explored by taking the intraoperative diagnosis results as the gold standard.The contents of the hernia sac in patients with different types of inguinal hernia were analyzed,and the accuracy of MSCT under different scanning directions on the relationship between neck of hernia sac and inferior epigastric artery was analyzed.Results The intraoperative diagnosis results confirmed that there were 92 cases of oblique hernia,26 cases of direct hernia and 12 cases of femoral hernia among 130 patients with inguinal hernia.A total of 139 hernia sacs were present,with 121 unilateral and 9 bilateral hernia sacs.Among patients with oblique hernias,87 cases were unilateral and 5 cases were bilateral;among patients with direct hernias,23 cases were unilateral and 3 cases were bilateral;among patients with femoral hernias,11 cases were unilateral and 1 case was bilateral.The MSCT scan results showed that patients with oblique hernia,direct hernia and femoral hernia were 92 cases,26 cases and 12 cases respectively.The sensitivities of MSCT in diagnosing oblique hernia,direct hernia and femoral hernia were 95.65%,84.62%and 100%respectively,and the specificities were 89.47%,96.15%and 100%respectively.The contents of the hernia sac in oblique hernia were mainly small intestine and mesentery,while those in direct hernia and femoral hernia were mainly small intestine and fat.The proportions of fat and bladder in the contents of the hernia sac of direct hernia were higher than those of oblique hernia and femoral hernia(P<0.05).The proportion of mesentery in the contents of the hernia sac of oblique hernia was higher than that of direct hernia and femoral hernia(P<0.05).According to the relationship between hernia sac neck and inferior epigastric artery,the diagnostic accuracy of inguinal hernia by MSCT under coronal scan was the highest.Conclusion The sensitivity and specificity of MSCT in the preoperative differential diagnosis of inguinal hernia are relatively high,and the accuracy of MSCT in classification diagnosis can be improved if combined the contents of the hernia sac and the relationship between the hernia sac neck and inferior epigastric artery.

Objective:To explore the impact of the two-way referral model on compliance and prognosis in patients with heart failure.Methods:This bidirectional cohort study enrolled chronic heart failure (CHF) patients treated at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University or designated primary hospitals between March 2018 and March 2022. Patients were categorized into two groups based on referral status: two-way referral group (participating in the referral model with≥1 follow-up visit at primary hospitals) and the core hospital group (receiving treatment and follow-up exclusively at Qilu Hospital). Baseline clinical characteristics were collected and compared between groups. Patients underwent followed-up, with primary endpoints including follow-up rate, drug (β-blockers, angiotension converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI)/angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blockers (ARB)/angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI), sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists) utilization rate and target dose achievement rate. Secondary endpoints encompassed changes from baseline in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd), and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), plus cardiovascular mortality and heart failure rehospitalization. Generalized linear mixed models analyzed longitudinal trends in LVEF, LVEDd, and NT-proBNP levels. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression evaluated LVEF recovery rates, supplemented by subgroup analyses. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify factors influencing target dose achievement rate for β-blockers and ACEI/ARB/ARNI therapies in CHF patients.Results:A total of 357 patients were enrolled, aged 53 (41, 63) years, including 256 males (71.7%). 157 patients were in the two-way referral group and 200 patients in the core hospital-treated group. Compared with the core hospital-treated group, the two-way referral group had lower baseline LVEF (28 (22, 34)% vs. 31 (23, 36)%, P=0.021) and systolic blood pressure (116 (104, 125) mmHg vs. 121 (109, 134) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), P=0.010). The 12-month follow-up rate of the two-way referral group was higher than the core hospital-treated group (73.8% vs. 56.0%, P=0.004). No significant between-group differences were observed in drug utilization rate of β-blockers, ACEI/ARB/ARNI, or sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors during follow-up (all P>0.05), while mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists use showed a declining trend in both groups. Although the core hospital-treated group had higher target dose achievement rates for β-blockers (65.4% vs. 49.3%, P=0.042) and ACEI/ARB/ARNI (79.8% vs. 65.8%, P=0.046) than the two-way referral group, multivariate logistic regression indicated that the two-way referral model was not a negative predictor for these outcomes (all P>0.05). Both groups showed improved NT-proBNP, LVEDd, and LVEF from baseline (all P<0.001) with no significant difference in trends between groups (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the composite incidence (7.6% vs. 6.5%, P=0.674) and cumulative incidence (log-rank P=0.684) of cardiovascular death and heart failure rehospitalization at 12 months between two groups. Conclusion:The two-way referral model demonstrates advantages in improving medication adherence, drug utilization rates, and targetdoseachievement rates among CHF patients. This model not only promotes cardiac functional recovery but also reduces risks of cardiovascular mortality and heart failure rehospitalization, achieving comparable therapeutic and management outcomes to those observed in core hospital-treated patients.

OBJECTIVE: This study examines utilizes the advantages of machine learning algorithms to discern key determinants in prognosticate postoperative circulatory complications (PCCs) for older patients. METHODS: This secondary analysis of data from a randomized controlled trial involved 1,720 elderly participants in five tertiary hospitals in Beijing, China. Participants aged 60-90 years undergoing major non-cardiac surgery under general anesthesia. The primary outcome metric of the study was the occurrence of PCCs, according to the European Society of Cardiology and the European Society of Anaesthesiology diagnostic criteria. The analysis metrics contained 67 candidate variables, including baseline characteristics, laboratory tests, and scale assessments. RESULTS: Our feature selection process identified key variables that significantly impact patient outcomes, including the duration of ICU stay, surgery, and anesthesia; APACHE-II score; intraoperative average heart rate and blood loss; cumulative opioid use during surgery; patient age; VAS-Move-Median score on the 1st to 3rd day; Charlson comorbidity score; volumes of intraoperative plasma, crystalloid, and colloid fluids; cumulative red blood cell transfusion during surgery; and endotracheal intubation duration. Notably, our Random Forest model demonstrated exceptional performance with an accuracy of 0.9872. CONCLUSION We have developed and validated an algorithm for predicting PCCs in elderly patients by identifying key risk factors.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between ABO blood types and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk. METHODS: A prospective birth cohort study was conducted. ABO blood types were determined using the slide method. GDM diagnosis was based on a 75-g, 2-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) according to the criteria of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups. Logistic regression was applied to calculate the odds ratios ( ORs) and 95% confidence intervals ( CIs) between ABO blood types and GDM risk. RESULTS: A total of 30,740 pregnant women with a mean age of 31.81 years were enrolled in this study. The ABO blood types distribution was: type O (30.99%), type A (26.58%), type B (32.20%), and type AB (10.23%). GDM was identified in 14.44% of participants. Using blood type O as a reference, GDM risk was not significantly higher for types A ( OR = 1.05) or B ( OR = 1.04). However, women with type AB had a 19% increased risk of GDM ( OR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.05-1.34; P < 0.05), even after adjusting for various factors. This increased risk for type AB was consistent across subgroup and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION The ABO blood types may influence GDM risk, with type AB associated with a higher risk. Incorporating it-either as a single risk factor or in combination with other known factors-could help identify individuals at risk for GDM before or during early pregnancy.

Objective: To investigate the trend in mortality of injury in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, from 2010 to 2022, so as to provide the evidence for developing injury prevention and intervention strategies. Methods: Data on injury mortality in Jiaxing City from 2010 to 2022 were obtained from the Jiaxing Chronic Disease Monitoring Information Management System. Crude mortality was calculated, and standardized mortality was computed using data of the Sixth National Population Census in 2010. Descriptive analysis of injury mortality and cause of injury death was conducted by gender and age. The average annual percent change (AAPC) was used to analyze the trend in mortality of injury from 2010 to 2022. Results: From 2010 to 2022, the crude injury mortality in Jiaxing City was 79.24/100 000, and the standardized mortality was 47.08/105. The crude injury mortality was higher in males than in females (80.51/100 000 vs. 78.01/100 000, P<0.05). The standardized injury mortality for the total population, males, and females showed significant declining trends (AAPC=-2.011%, -2.373% and -1.542%, all P<0.05). The crude injury mortality increased with age (P<0.05), peaking in the age group of ≥85 years (1 806.46/100 000). Decreasing trends were observed in the age groups of 0-<15 years, 15-<45 years, and 45-<65 years (AAPC=-7.794%, -4.698% and -4.521%, all P<0.05), while no significant trend was found in the age group of ≥65 years. The top five causes of injury death were falls (29.96/100 000), motor vehicle traffic accidents (17.81/100 000), drowning (6.50/100 000), suicide (5.40/100 000), and poisoning (0.69/100 000). Drowning was the leading cause of injury death in the age group of 0-<15 years, while falls were the primary cause in the age group of ≥65 years. Motor vehicle traffic accidents were the top cause of injury death in age groups of 15-<45 years and 45-<65 years. From 2010 to 2022, the standardized mortality of falls showed an upward trend (AAPC=1.094%, P<0.05), while the standardized mortality of motor vehicle traffic accidents, drowning, and suicide demonstrated downward trends (AAPC=-7.576%, -2.745% and -2.786%, all P<0.05). Conclusions The standardized injury mortality in Jiaxing City showed an overall downward trend from 2010 to 2022. Falls were the leading cause of injury death, and particular attention should be paid to the prevention and control of falls among the elderly aged ≥65 years.

Objective : To investigate the distribution of solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1B1(SLCO1B1) and apolipoprotein E(ApoE) gene polymorphisms in the patients of Han ethnic group with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases from Anhui Province, in order to provide the basis for the individualized therapy of statins in clinical practice. Methods: 924 Han patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases were selected. The SLCO1B1 and ApoE genotypes of the patients were detected by polymerase chain reaction-fluorescent probe method, and their distribution was compared among different genders and other regions in China. Results: Seven SLCO1B1 gene subtypes were detected in 924 patients, including *1a/*1b(33.01%),*1b/*1b(41.45%), *1b/*15(12.34%), *1a/*1a(7.03%), *1a/*15(5.52%), *15/*15(0.54%) and *5/*5(0.11%), without detection of the two gene subtypes of *1a/*5 and *5/*15; the normal metabolic genotype I of SLCO1B1(*1a/*1a, *1a/*1b, *1b/*1b) accounted for the highest proportion in this population(81.49%), the intermediate metabolic genotype II and the weak metabolic genotype III of SLCO1B1 accounted for 17.86% and 0.65% respectively; six ApoE gene subtypes were detected, including E3/E3(66.78%), E3/E4(19.37%), E2/E3(9.63%), E4/E4(1.84%), E2/E4(1.73%) and E2/E2(0.65%); the E3 mass genotype(E2/E4, E3/E3) accounted for the highest proportion in this population(68.51%); there was no significant difference in the distribution of SLCO1B1 and ApoE genes between different genders; there was no significant difference in the distribution of SLCO1B1 between the Han population from Anhui and the South China and Central China, but a significant difference was found between the Anhui Han population and the Southwest China(P<0.05); the distribution of ApoE in the Anhui Han population demonstrated no statistically significant variation from those in South China and Southwest China, whereas significant differences were observed in comparison with Central China(P<0.05). Conclusion In the Han population with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in Anhui, the distributions of SLCO1B1 and ApoE gene polymorphisms show no significant gender differences but exhibit regional variations. These populations are predominantly characterized by class I normal metabolic genotype(SLCO1B1) and E3 mass genotypes(ApoE), indicating a higher tolerance to statin dosages and normal therapeutic efficacy in this cohort.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy between liposuction combined with circumareolar small incision and three-port endoscopic surgery for the treatment of Simon Ⅱ gynecomastia (GYN). Methods Comparative case data of 120 patients with GYN were retrospectively analyzed, 61 patients in the open group underwent circumareolar small incision mastectomy after liposuction, and 59 patients in the endoscopic group underwent three-port endoscopic mastectomy after liposuction. The two groups were compared in terms of surgery-related indexes, occurrence of postoperative complications and patient satisfaction. Results The unilateral operation time of the open group was shorter than that of the endoscopic group, the unilateral gland resection weight in the open group was more than that in the endoscopic group, the hospitalization cost of the open group was less than that of the endoscopic group (all P<0.01). There was no significant difference in unilateral liposuction volume, drainage volume on the first postoperative day, and time to drain removal between the two groups (P>0.05). The incidence of complications in the open group and the endoscopic group were 8.2% and 13.6% respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). The difference in the overall satisfaction scores between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusions Liposuction combined with circumareolar small incision or three-port endoscopic surgery both has good cosmetic effects in the treatment of Simon Ⅱ GYN. The operation with circumareolar small incision is simple, has a shorter operation time, costs less, and does not require special equipment, which is suitable for promotion and application in medical institutions.
