Objective:To investigate the relationship of triglyceride (TG), fasting blood glucose (FPG) and triglyceride glucose product index (TyG) with the incidence of hypertension, and provide basic data for the prevention and treatment of hypertension in the population.Methods:A total of 23 581 individuals who met the research criteria in Jinchang cohort were selected as the research subjects, the Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze the relationship of TG, FPG, and TyG with the risk of hypertension. A stratified analysis was conducted by sex.Results:After adjusting for confounding factors, compared with the normal TG group, the HR(95% CI) of the elevated TG margin group and the elevated group were 1.16 (1.01-1.34) and 1.49 (1.30-1.70), respectively in the total population. Among men, they were 1.13 (1.01-1.27) and 1.17 (1.06-1.30), and among women, they were 1.05 (0.88-1.26) and 1.06 (0.88-1.28). Compared with the normal FPG group, the HR (95% CI) of the FPG-impaired group were 1.29 (1.13-1.48) in the total population, 1.26 (1.08-1.48) in men and 1.59 (1.14-2.21) in women. Taking the lowest quartile array as a reference, the HR (95% CI) of the highest quartile array of TyG was 1.73 (1.45-2.07) in the total population, 1.32 (1.14-1.53) in men and 1.87 (1.37-2.54) in women. TG, FPG had a nonlinear dose-response relationship with the risk of hypertension, while TyG had a linear correlation with the risk of hypertension. Conclusions:Higher TG, FPG, and TyG levels are independent risk factors for the incidence of hypertension. People with higher TG, FPG and TyG are at high risk for hypertension, to which close attention should be paid in the prevention and treatment of hypertension.

Objective:To share related knowledge and experiences with countries along the line, literature regarding current cohort studies was summarized. Distribution, establishment and development of cohort studies among large prospective general population were analyzed in 17 countries of Western Asia and the 16 countries of Central and Eastern Europe.Methods:Literature review was conducted to collect basic information on cohort studies, with descriptive study used to analyze the characteristics of these cohort studies.Results:There were 562 cohort studies with sample size as more than 1 000 stated in Western Asia and Central and Eastern Europe, including 468 (83.27 %) carried out in the nation itself and 94 (16.73 %) with international multicentered collaboration. According to the nature of cohort studies, 347 (61.74 %) were etiologically based. As for the contents involved, 310 (55.16 %) of them targeted on chronic/non-communicable diseases, 125 (22.24 %) concentrated on maternal and child health. Among those on chronic/non-communicable diseases, 51 (16.45 %) were on cancers and 83 (26.77 %) on cardiovascular disease studies. There appeared 10 large prospective cohort studies targeting on general population, mainly ongoing in Iran and European countries, with a duration of 8-29 years, including 4 of them with sample size as more than 50 000. In terms of the contents, epidemiological investigation, physical examination and biological samples collection took the major parts. Few papers were published in 9 out of the 10 cohort studies at the early stage of those projects but the number of papers increased annually and stabilized to certain extent. Conclusions:The regional distribution of cohort studies carried out in countries from the Western Asia and Central and Eastern European areas appeared unbalanced. Contents of these designs would mainly involve etiological studies, with focus on non-communicable diseases as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, respiratory diseases, mental and psychological diseases, and maternal and infant health etc.. However, only few large prospective cohort studies would base on general population.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of different primary processing methods on quality change of Polygonatum sibiricum, and to optimize primary processing method of P. sibiricum with different grades and shapes. METHODS: After processed with different drying methods, boiling method and steaming method, sulfuric acid-phenol method was used to determine the contents of indicator component P. sibiricum polysaccharide in samples. The contents of ethanol-soluble extract, water-soluble extract and total ash were investigated. The optimal primary processing methods were screened. RESULTS: After processed with different methods, the contents of polysaccharide (≥7%), ethanol-soluble extract (≥45%) and total ash (≤4%) of samples at all levels conformed to the requirements of the 2015 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia (part Ⅰ); from aspect of drying method, microwave drying method was better than oven drying method;for P. sibiricum with different morphologies (individual and lamellar), the quality of lamellar samples of P. sibiricum was better than that of individual P. sibiricum. As primary processing method, steaming was better than boiling. The contents of P. sibiricum polysaccharide were in relatively high level, when the steaming and boiling time of gradeless and uniformly-priced goods of P. sibiricum were 20 and 15 minutes respectively. CONCLUSIONS: By discussing the different primary processing methods, high-efficient primary processing method for the individual and lamellar samples of P. sibiricum as well as gradeless and uniformly-priced goods of P. sibiricum are preliminarily obtained, which can provide a scientific basis for the effective utilization of P. sibiricum resources.
