Objective:To investigate the association between the triglyceride-glucose(TyG)index and the incidence and mortality of cardiovascular disease(CVD)in a large population-based cohort.Methods:Participants aged 40-79 years without a history of CVD at baseline were drawn from the CHi-nese Electronic health Records Research in Yinzhou(CHERRY)study between January 1,2010,and May 31,2020.The TyG index was calculated using baseline triglyceride and fasting blood glucose.Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the association between the TyG index and the composite outcome of CVD(incidence and mortality),adjusting for age,gender,education,region,smoking sta-tus,body mass index,systolic blood pressure,and total cholesterol.Hazard ratios(HR)and 95％confi-dence intervals(CI)were calculated.Nonlinear associations between the TyG index and CVD were fur-ther evaluated using restricted cubic splines,and subgroup analyses by gender and age were conducted to explore potential differences.Results:A total of 226 406 individuals were included,with a mean age of(55.0±9.7)years at baseline,46.8％of whom were men,and a median TyG index of 8.68.Over a median follow-up of 7.99 years,9 815(4.34％)participants experienced CVD incidence or mortality.After adjusting for age,gender,education,region,smoking status,body mass index,systolic blood pressure and total cholesterol,the risk of CVD increased with higher TyG index levels(P＜0.001).The risk in the highest TyG quartile(TyG＞9.10)was 42％higher than in the lowest quartile(TyG ≤8.32)(HR=1.42,95％CI:1.34-1.51).Individuals under 60 years had a higher HR for CVD compared with those aged 60 years and above(HR:1.71 vs.1.27,P＜0.05).Restricted cubic spline analysis revealed a reverse L-shaped association between the TyG index and CVD risk in the overall population(P＜0.001 for nonlinear trend),with risk increasing after the TyG index exceeded 8.67.However,the threshold varied by gender,with a lower threshold in women(8.51)than in men(8.67).Conclusion:A significant nonlinear relationship was revealed between the TyG index and CVD risk,with a threshold effect.The risk of CVD increased once the TyG index surpassed a certain threshold,with a lower threshold in women than in men.These findings suggest that cardiovascular risk prediction and interven-tions based on the TyG index should be gender-stratified,and early intervention for individuals under 60 years old might have important public health implications.

[Purpose]To analyze the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer in Zhejiang can-cer registration areas in 2021 and its temporal trends from 2000 to 2021.[Methods]Data from 22 cancer registries in Zhejiang Province in 2021 that met the quality standards were included.The crude incidence/mortality rate,age-standardized incidence/mortality rates by Chinese standard population(ASIRC/ASMRC)and by world standard population(ASIRW/ASMRW),and cumulative incidence(mortality)rate for 0～74 years old were calculated.Trends from 2000 to 2021 were ana-lyzed using the Joinpoint regression model by calculating the annual percentage change(APC)and average annual percentage change(AAPC).[Results]In 2021,the number of new colorectal cancer cases in Zhejiang cancer registration areas was 12 265,with 4 323 deaths.ASIRC and ASMRC were significantly higher in men(32.74/105 and 10.11/105)than those in women(20.78/105 and 5.99/105).Urban areas showed higher ASIRC and ASMRC(28.27/105 and 8.06/105)than rural areas(24.12/105 and 7.85/105).The age-specific incidence and mortality rates of colorectal cancer in Zhejiang Province showed an increasing trend with age,with a peak of 219.63/105 in the age group of 80～84 years old.The age-specific mortality rate peaked in the age group of 85 years old and above,with a peak of 199.65/105.From 2000 to 2021,ASIRC in Zhejiang Province showed an upward trend(AAPC=2.23％,P＜0.001),ASMRC showed a marginal increase(AAPC=0.78％,P=0.067).[Conclusion]The incidence of colorectal cancer in Zhejiang Province had been on a continuous rise in the past 22 years,and health education and early screening should be empha-sized.

Objectives:To describe the use of antihypertensive, antidiabetic and lipid-lowering drugs, and evaluate the effects on blood pressure, blood glucose and blood lipids controls required by Chinese Guideline on the Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Diseases (the guideline) in a community-based cohort of individuals at high risk for cardiovascular disease. To analyze the association of the uses of antihypertensive, antidiabetic and lipid-lowering drugs, and the comprehensive control of blood pressure, blood glucose and blood lipids with cardiovascular disease. Methods:From the CHinese Electronic health Records Research in Yinzhou (CHERRY), those who were at high risk for cardiovascular disease and aged 40-75 years as of January 1, 2013 in in Yinzhou District of Ningbo, Zhejiang Province were selected as study subjects. The information about their antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and lipid-lowering drug uses between 2013 and 2015 was collected, and blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood lipid measurements were conducted during the follow-up. The study constructed two kinds of comprehensive scores: the comprehensive medication score based on the guideline requirement for the treatment of hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipidemia, dividing the study participants into the compliancy group and non-compliancy group; and the comprehensive control score based on the guideline requirement for blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood lipids control, dividing the study participants into better control group, moderate control group, and poor control group. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the association of the comprehensive medication score and comprehensive control score with cardiovascular disease. The incidence data of cardiovascular disease were collected from January 1, 2015 (baseline time) to August 31, 2020 (follow up end time).Results:A total of 79 734 participants at high risk for cardiovascular disease were included in the study, in whom 68.4%, 27.4%, and 4.2% had 1, 2, or 3 cardiometabolic conditions (hypertension, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia), respectively. In the participants with hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia from 2013 to 2015, the proportions of those who had two years of medication compliancy records were 66.0%, 67.4%, and 13.9%, respectively. In the hypertension patients, 59.2% had better blood pressure control, in the diabetes patients, 28.7% had better blood glucose control, and in the patients with hyperlipidemia, 27.4% had better blood lipid control. After a median follow-up of 5.66 years, 4 088 cardiovascular disease cases or deaths occurred. After multivariate adjustment, compared with the non-compliancy group, the compliancy group had lower risk for cardiovascular disease ( HR=0.91, 95% CI: 0.85-0.96). Compared with the better control group, the poor control group had an increased risk for cardiovascular disease ( HR=1.67, 95% CI: 1.53-1.81). In the moderate control group, the risk increased significantly in the diabetes patients ( HR=1.29, 95% CI: 1.07-1.56), while no additional risk for cardiovascular disease was observed in non-diabetes patients ( HR=1.06, 95% CI: 0.97-1.16). Conclusions:Compliancy to the medication required by the guideline is associated with lower risk for cardiovascular disease. However, it is still necessary to improve the medication compliancy in people at high risk in primary prevention, especially in the patients with hyperlipidemia, due to their low taking rate of lipid-lowering drugs. Additionally, as the requirement of the guideline becomes more stringent, the management of disease has met more challenges. Notably, diabetes patients who have not met the guideline requirement are at high risk for cardiovascular disease, to whom the disease management should be strengthened.

Objective:To explore the role of Caveolin-1 (CAV-1) in radiation-induced premature senescence of vascular endothelial cells.Methods:A cell model with stable knockdown of CAV-1 was constructed in human microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1) by lentiviral transfection using puromycin screening. The cells were divided into NC group and sh-CAV-1 group based on whether they were infected with lentivirus shRNA-CAV-1. The protein expression levels of CAV-1, p53 and p21 were detected by Western blot at 24, 48, and 72 h after 0, 2, and 4 Gy X-ray irradiation. The β-galactosidase staining kit was used to detect β-galactosidase in cells. CCK-8 kit was used to detect cell viability, and vascular endothelial cell function was detected by vascular tube-forming assay.Results:CAV-1 protein expression was significantly decreased at 48 h after 2 and 4 Gy X-ray irradiation ( t=3.50, 3.89, P < 0.05), and β-galactosidase in sh-CAV-1 group was significantly increased at 72 h after 0, 2 and 4 Gy X-ray irradiation ( t=12.91, 11.54, 6.04, P < 0.05) compared with the NC group. Knockdown of CAV-1 resulted in the decrease in the expression level of the cellular senescence-associated protein p53 protein ( t=4.09, 3.13, 3.43, P < 0.05), but increase in the expression level of p21 protein ( t=-3.63, -3.33, -3.06, P < 0.05). Compared with the NC group, knockdown CAV-1 significantly decreased cell viability ( t=2.97-25.89, P<0.05) and reduced vessel-forming capacity ( t=3.39-39.68, P < 0.05). Conclusions:CAV-1 is involved in the process of radiation-induced premature senescence of vascular endothelial cells through positive regulation of p53 and negative regulation of p21.

Objective:To investigate the association between the triglyceride-glucose(TyG)index and the incidence and mortality of cardiovascular disease(CVD)in a large population-based cohort.Methods:Participants aged 40-79 years without a history of CVD at baseline were drawn from the CHi-nese Electronic health Records Research in Yinzhou(CHERRY)study between January 1,2010,and May 31,2020.The TyG index was calculated using baseline triglyceride and fasting blood glucose.Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the association between the TyG index and the composite outcome of CVD(incidence and mortality),adjusting for age,gender,education,region,smoking sta-tus,body mass index,systolic blood pressure,and total cholesterol.Hazard ratios(HR)and 95％confi-dence intervals(CI)were calculated.Nonlinear associations between the TyG index and CVD were fur-ther evaluated using restricted cubic splines,and subgroup analyses by gender and age were conducted to explore potential differences.Results:A total of 226 406 individuals were included,with a mean age of(55.0±9.7)years at baseline,46.8％of whom were men,and a median TyG index of 8.68.Over a median follow-up of 7.99 years,9 815(4.34％)participants experienced CVD incidence or mortality.After adjusting for age,gender,education,region,smoking status,body mass index,systolic blood pressure and total cholesterol,the risk of CVD increased with higher TyG index levels(P＜0.001).The risk in the highest TyG quartile(TyG＞9.10)was 42％higher than in the lowest quartile(TyG ≤8.32)(HR=1.42,95％CI:1.34-1.51).Individuals under 60 years had a higher HR for CVD compared with those aged 60 years and above(HR:1.71 vs.1.27,P＜0.05).Restricted cubic spline analysis revealed a reverse L-shaped association between the TyG index and CVD risk in the overall population(P＜0.001 for nonlinear trend),with risk increasing after the TyG index exceeded 8.67.However,the threshold varied by gender,with a lower threshold in women(8.51)than in men(8.67).Conclusion:A significant nonlinear relationship was revealed between the TyG index and CVD risk,with a threshold effect.The risk of CVD increased once the TyG index surpassed a certain threshold,with a lower threshold in women than in men.These findings suggest that cardiovascular risk prediction and interven-tions based on the TyG index should be gender-stratified,and early intervention for individuals under 60 years old might have important public health implications.

Objective:To explore the changes of oxidative stress(OS),DNA damage and the occurrence of cellular premature aging of human immortalized keratinocytes(HaCaT)after that was radiated by X-ray with different doses.Methods:HaCaT cells were radiated by X-ray,and they were divided into 0 Gy group,5 Gy group and 10 Gy group according to the irradiation dose.The levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)were detected by 2,7-Dichlorofluorescein diacetate(DCFH-DA)fluorescent probe,and the intracellular content of malondialdehyde(MDA)of lipid peroxidation products and the activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD)were measured by colorimetry.Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the phosphorylated histone 2A variant(γ-H2AX)in HaCaT cells that were radiated by X-ray with different doses.Cell count kit-8(CCK-8)was used to detect the effect of X-ray with different doses on the proliferation of HaCaT cells after X-ray with different doses radiated them.β-Galactosidase staining was used to detect the proportion of premature aging cells.The changes of p21 and p53 protein expressions after X-ray irradiation were detected by Western blot.Results:After HaCaT cells were radiated by X-ray for 24h,the fluorescence intensity of 2',7'-Dichlorofluorescein(DCF)in 5 Gy and 10 Gy groups were significantly higher than that in the 0 Gy group,and the MDA contents of them were significantly higher than that in the control group,and the SOD activities of them were significantly lower than that in the control group(F=38.35,92.22,5.22,P<0.05),respectively.The change of γ-H2AX focus showed a dose-dependent significant increase at 1 h after irradiation,and the difference between them and control group was statistically significant(F=129.3,P<0.05).At 6h,24h and 48h after X-ray radiated HaCaT cells,the cell proliferation abilities of 5 Gy group and 10 Gy group were significantly decreased than that of 0 Gy group(F=116.41,62.20,34.29,P<0.01),and the β-Galactosidase activity of the two groups were significantly increased than that of 0 Gy group,and the difference was significant(F=1629.22,P<0.01).At 72h after X-ray with different doses radiated HaCaT cells,the expression levels of p21 and p53 proteins of 5 Gy group and 10 Gy group increased,and the differences of them among three groups were significant(F=104.4,66.69,P<0.01),respectively.Conclusion:Ionizing radiation can induce the occurrences of oxidative stress and DNA damage in HaCaT cells,and cause the occurrence of cellular premature aging.

Objective:To evaluate the health benefits and intervention efficiency of different strategies of initiating antihypertensive therapy for the primary prevention of cardiovascular diseases in a community-based Chinese population from the Chinese electronic health records research in Yinzhou(CHERRY)study.Methods:A decision-analytic Markov model was used to simulate and compare different antihy-pertensive initiation strategies,including:Strategy 1,initiation of antihypertensive therapy for Chinese adults with systolic blood pressure(SBP)≥140 mmHg(2020 Chinese guideline on the primary preven-tion of cardiovascular diseases);Strategy 2,initiation of antihypertensive therapy for Chinese adults with SBP≥130 mmHg;Strategy 3,initiation of antihypertensive therapy for Chinese adults with SBP ≥140 mmHg,or with SBP between 130 and 140 mmHg and at high risk of cardiovascular diseases(2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association guideline for the prevention,detection,evaluation,and management of high blood pressure in adults);Strategy 4,initiation of antihypertensive therapy for Chinese adults with SBP≥ 160 mmHg,or with SBP between 140 and 160 mmHg and at high risk of car-diovascular diseases(2019 United Kingdom National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guideline for the hypertension in adults:Diagnosis and management).The high 10-year cardiovascular risk was de-fined as the predicted risk over 10％based on the 2019 World Health Organization cardiovascular disease risk charts.Different strategies were simulated by the Markov model for ten years(cycles),with parame-ters mainly from the CHERRY study or published literature.After ten cycles of simulation,the numbers of quality-adjusted life years(QALY),cardiovascular events and all-cause deaths were calculated to evaluate the health benefits of each strategy,and the numbers needed to treat(NNT)for each cardiovas-cular event or all-cause death could be prevented were calculated to assess the intervention efficiency.One-way sensitivity analysis on the uncertainty of incidence rates of cardiovascular disease and probabilis-tic sensitivity analysis on the uncertainty of hazard ratios of interventions were conducted.Results:A to-tal of 213 987 Chinese adults aged 35-79 years without cardiovascular diseases were included.Com-pared with strategy 1,the number of cardiovascular events that could be prevented in strategy 2 increased by 666(95％UI:334-975),while the NNT per cardiovascular event prevented increased by 10(95％UI:7-20).In contrast to strategy 1,the number of cardiovascular events that could be prevented in strategy 3 increased by 388(95％UI:194-569),and the NNT per cardiovascular event prevented decreased by 6(95％UI:4-12),suggesting that strategy 3 had better health benefits and intervention efficiency.Compared to strategy 1,although the number of cardiovascular events that could be prevented decreased by 193(95％UI:98-281)in strategy 4,the NNT per cardiovascular event prevented decreased by 18(95％UI:13-37)with better efficiency.The results were consistent in the sensitivity analyses.Conclusion:When initiating antihypertensive therapy in an economically developed area of China,the strategy combined with cardiovascular risk assessment is more efficient than those purely based on the SBP threshold.The cardiovascular risk assessment strategy with different SBP thresholds is suggested to balance health benefits and intervention efficiency in diverse populations.
