Objective:To explore the impact of plant and animal dietary behaviors on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in older adults aged ≥65 in 18 longevity areas of China.Methods:The subjects were 5 223 older adults over 65 years old from the Healthy Ageing and Biomarkers Cohort Study (HABCS) in 18 longevity areas in China. Through a questionnaire survey and physical examination, information about their demographic characteristics, lifestyles, daily activities, self-health status, current diseases, and fasting venous blood were collected. Food Frequency and Questionnaire (FFQ) was used to collect data on food intake frequency. Based on the prior method, the plant-based diet index (PDI) and animal-based diet index (ADI) of 5 223 older adults were calculated. Subjects were divided into three groups (low-level group: PDI<39 or ADI<31, middle-level group: 39≤PDI≤42 or 31≤ADI≤34, high-level group: PDI>42 or ADI>34) by tertiles of PDI and ADI. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the association between PDI and ADI and the risk of T2DM.Results:The average age of 5 223 subjects was (84.8±11.5) years, with the median ( Q1, Q3) of PDI about 41(38, 43) and the median ( Q1, Q3) of ADI about 33 (30, 35). The prevalence rate of T2DM was 16.41% (857/5 223). After adjusting for covariates, multivariate logistic regression showed that PDI was negatively associated with T2DM. Compared with the low-level group, the OR (95% CI) for T2DM in the high-level group was 0.83 (0.69-0.99). ADI was positively associated with T2DM, and compared with the low-level group, the OR (95% CI) for T2DM in the high-level group was 1.28 (1.06-1.55). For every one-point increase in PDI and ADI, the risk of T2DM decreased by 2% and increased by 3%, respectively, with the OR (95% CI) of 0.98 (0.96-1.00) and 1.03 (1.01-1.06), respectively. Conclusion:In Chinese older adults ≥65 years in 18 longevity areas, higher adherence to the plant-based behavior may be negatively associated with the risk of T2DM, while higher adherence to the animal-based behavior may be positively associated with the risk of T2DM.

Objectives To understand the control and prevention status of water-borne endemic fluorosis in Jiangxi Province, in order to provide a scientific basis for evaluate and perfect the strategies in control and prevention of the disease. Methods According to monitoring project of national water-borne endemic fluorosis, three villages were chosen to investigate the status and the fluoride content of fluorosis villages with water-improving and defluoridation projects in Yushui district and Ningdu county of Jiangxi Province. Investigation consisted of the status of dental fluorosis of children aged from 8 to 12 years and adult skeletal fluorosis, as well as fluoride content of drinking water and urinary fluorine. The standard detection methods of domestic drinking water was used for water fluoride content detection, fluoride selective electrode was chosen for urinary fluorine detection, Dean detection method was used to determine dental fluorosis, and diagnostic criteria of endemic skeletal fluorosis was chosen for diagnose of skeletal fluorosis. Results In fluorosis villages with water-improving and defluoridation projects which operated normally, the fluoride content of drinking water was lower than 1.00 mg/L. In fluorosis villages with water-improving and defluoridation projects which never operated normally, the average fluoride content of drinking water was 1.76 mg/L. The detection rate of dental fluorosis of children aged 8-12 years was 12.50%(22/176). A total of 294 adults were examined by X-ray, 3 adults were diagnosed as skeletal fluorosis, and the detection rate was 1.02%. A total of 294 adult urine samples were tested. The urinary fluoride content varied from 0.28 to 7.74 mg/L, and the geometric mean was 1.10 mg/L. Conclusions The illness condition of water-borne endemic fluorosis has been under control effectively. The maintenance of water-improving and defluoridation projects and surveillance were main tasks in control and prevention of the disease in the future.

Objective To compare the characteristics of remifentanil and sufentanil for tracheal intubation general anesthesia in gyneco-logical laparoscopic operation. Methods 80 patients received gynecological laparoscopic operation were randomly divided into the remifen-tanil group and the sufentanil group with 40 patients in each group, and they were performed total intravenous anesthesia with remifentanil or sufentanil respectively. Compare the changes of heart rate, mean arterial pressure in the two groups before and after induction, at the time of intubation, pneumoperitoneum, and after the operation. And differences in two groups were recorded in the recovery time, extubation time, postoperative pain in 24 hours, exhaust time and postoperative complications. Results Change trend and magnitude in heart rate, mean ar-terial pressure had no significant difference in the two groups (P>0. 05). The recovery time, extubation time in remifentanil group was shor-ter (P<0. 01), postoperative pain in 24 hours in sufentanil group was more mild (P<0. 01). Exhaust time and postoperative complications of the two groups had no significant difference (P>0. 05). Conclusion Remifentanil and sufentanil used in gynecological laparoscopic op-eration can achieve good effect. and effects of the two drugs on hemodynamics were similar. Remifentanil can recieve better effect in terms of recovery time, while sufentanil has better postoperative analgesia effect.
