Objective: To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) among residents at ages of 40 years and older in Qidong City, Jiangsu Province, so as to provide insights into COPD prevention and control. Methods: Permanent residents at ages of 40 years and older were sampled using a multistage stratified random sampling method in Qidong City in 2020, and subjects' demographics, history of environmental contact, and medical and family history of respiratory disorders were collected. Pulmonary function test was performed, and the forced expiratory volume (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio of <70% was defined as COPD. Factors affecting the prevalence of COPD were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 8 000 questionnaires were allocated, and 7 538 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 94.23%. The respondents included 3 104 men (41.18%) and 4 434 women (58.82%), and had a mean age of (62.40±14.68) years. The prevalence of COPD was 15.06%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that male (OR=1.818, 95%CI: 1.712-1.940), age (50 to 59 years, OR=1.142, 95%CI: 1.111-1.181; 60 to 69 years, OR=1.176, 95%CI: 1.142-1.219; 70 to 79 years, OR=1.300, 95%CI: 1.249-1.361; 80 years and older, OR=1.582, 95%CI: 1.490-1.691), smoking (OR=3.760, 95%CI: 2.658-4.879), alcohol consumption (OR=1.213, 95%CI: 1.077-1.348), use of solid fuels (OR=1.676, 95%CI: 1.591-1.773), history of occupational exposure to dust (OR=1.859, 95%CI: 1.752-1.982), medical history of asthma or dyspnea (OR=2.068, 95%CI: 1.044-3.125) and frequency of persistent cough of more than four times annually (OR=1.225, 95%CI: 1.121-1.345) were statistically associated with the prevalence of COPD among residents at ages of 40 years and older in Qidong City. Conclusion The prevalence of COPD was 15.06%, and was associated with gender, age, smoking, use of solid fuels, occupational exposure to dusts, medical history of asthma or dyspnea and frequency of persistent cough among residents at ages of 40 years and older in Qidong City.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between Creactive protein(CRP)/albumin ratio (CAR) and lymph node metastasis of gastric cancer. Methods:A total of 96 cases of gastric cancer were included in the study. The clinical pathological stage and lymph node detection in patients with gastric cancer were analyzed, with the preoperative CAR as the dependent variable. Results:1) The pa-tients with preoperative CAR>0.04 has higher transfer rate and metastasis than the patients with preoperative CAR≤0.04, and the dif-ference was significant (P<0.05). The lymph node stage of patients with preoperative CAR>0.04 was significantly higher than that of the patients with preoperative CAR≤0.04, and the difference was significant (P<0.05). 2) The mean CAR of patients with Borrmann typesⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ, andⅣgradually increased;with the progression of the pathological stage of gastric cancer, the mean value of CAR in-creased. 3) During the operation, the total number of lymph node dissections was high and the mean value of CAR before the opera-tion was high. Conclusion:The correlation between preoperative CAR and lymph node metastasis in patients with gastric cancer may reflect the degree of lymph node metastasis to a certain extent.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of resveratrol (Rsv) on psoriasis like skin damage induced by imiquimod (IMQ) and study its mechanism.Methods BALB/c mice were randomly divided into four groups:control group,Rsv group,model (IMQ) group and Rsv treatment (IMQ + Rsv) group with six mice in each group.Psoriasis like skin model induced by smearing IMQ in the mice's ear for 8 d,20 mg Rsv cream were gave at the same time for treatment.Observe erythema and psoriasis degree,and measure ear thickness with vemier caliper.HE staining was used to observe tissue change,real time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect K17,IL-17A,IL-19 and IL-23 mRNA and Western blotting were used to detected K17 protein expression in tissues.Results Compared with the model group,mice erythema area and the thickness of epidermal scale decreased significantly in Rsv treatment group;HE staining results showed that,Rsv significantly reduced ear marginal tissue epidermal thickness,and diminished severity of the psoriasis-like skin inflammation.qRT-PCR and Western blotting confirmed a Rsv dependent decrease of in K17,IL-17A and IL-19 in mRNA level and protein levels of K17.Conclusion Rsv improves psoriasis like skin damage by down-regulating expression of Keratinl 7.

Objective:To explore the association between CYP2D6 gene polymorphism of cytochrome and clinical response to atomoxetinein children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.Methods:Totally 111 Han Chinese boys meeting criteria for ADHD in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edi-tion (DSM-IV)were recruited.Atomoxetine treatment was given in titrated doses in order to achieve optimal re-sponse.Behavior changes were measured with the ADHD Rating Scale (ADHD-RS)at baseline and after optimal doses were reached.The decrease of ADHD-RS scores were primary measures of the treatment effect,the scores of the items in the ADHD-RS was less than or equal to 1 for the remission criteria.The three SNPs of CYP2D6 genes(rs1080985,rs1065852,rs16947)were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).Results:There was no asso-ciation between single polymorphisms andatomoxetine after adjusting for baseline rating scores (P >0.05).In con-trast,haplotype analysis revealed that some patients with GAC haplotype achieved significant remission [remission vs.non-remission haplotype frequency (rate):5 /56 (8.9%)vs.3 /164(1.8%),P <0.05 ].After multiple testing correction still existed significant trend(P =0.082)and also found correlation trends after correlation analysis be-tween GAC haplotype and clinical response to atomoxetine (P =0.078),8 patients with GAC haplotype carriers were all effective response to treatment,non-responders without this haplotype.Conclusion:These results suggest association between polymorphisms of CYP2D6 gene and ADHD better clinical improvement with atomoxetine treatment,it is worth further exploration in a large sample.

OBJECTIVETo study the safety and feasibility of fast track surgery (FTS) in the promotion of postoperative recovery for gastric cancer patients undergoing gastrectomy.

METHODSFrom January to December in 2013, 71 gastric cancer patients were prospectively enrolled and randomized into the FTS group and the control group. Patient in the FTS group received FTS management and those in the control group received routine management. The postoperative recovery and stress were compared between the two groups.

RESULTSFTS was associated with shorter time to bowel function return [(67.8±19.7) h vs. (90.0±20.6) h, P<0.01], shorter hospital stay [(13.5±3.0) d vs. (17.8±7.3) d, P=0.01], lower hospital cost [(23.8±3.7) thousand Yuan vs. (27.8±6.1) thousand Yuan, P<0.05], and less stress response (lower pain score, WBC count, C-reactive protein, all P<0.01). The postoperative complications including ileus, infection, anastomotic leakage were similar (all P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONFast track surgery decreases postoperative stress response and promotes recovery.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the better method of digestive tract reconstruction in proximal gastrectomy for early gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.

METHODSA total of 153 cases of early gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who were planned to receive radical proximal gastrectomy from January 2003 to December 2011 were prospectively enrolled and randomly divided into two groups by table of random number according to methods of digestive tract reconstruction, including 3S anastomosis group (80 cases, 3S jejunal interposition) and traditional anastomosis group (73 cases, esophageal remnant gastric posterior wall anastomosis). Postoperative complications, operative time, mortality, nutritional parameters and postoperative quality of life were compared between these two groups.

RESULTSThere were no significant differences between two groups in postoperative complications, operative time and mortality (all P>0.05). 3S anastomosis group was better in nutritional parameters than traditional group six months after operation (P<0.05). As compared to traditional group, incidence of reflux esophagitis decreased [20.0%(16/80) vs. 46.6%(34/73), P<0.01] and gastric emptying time prolonged obviously [(160.8±8.1) min vs. (61.1±10.8) min, P<0.01] in 3S anastomosis group 18 months after operation. Postoperative QLQ-C30 rating scale revealed quality of life was significantly higher in 3S anastomosis group as compared to traditional group.

CONCLUSIONJejunal interposition is a better method of digestive tract reconstruction in proximal gastrectomy for early gastroesophageal junction carcinoma.
