Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and differences of inpatients who have been diagnosed with both cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.The findings from this study will help medical professionals make informed decisions regarding diagnosis and treatment strategies for patients with coexisting cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.Methods:This study included a total of 275 patients who were hospitalized in both the Neurology and Cardiology Departments of our hospital between January 2012 and December 2019.The study compared the treatment, hospitalization, and prognosis of the two departments using retrospective stratified analysis.Results:The majority of patients hospitalized in the Cardiology Department were diagnosed with circulatory system diseases(I00-I99), accounting for 92.0%(253 cases). In the Neurology Department, the main diagnoses were circulatory system diseases(I00-I99), nervous system diseases(G00-G99), symptoms and signs involving circulatory and respiratory systems, cognition, perception, emotional state and behavior(R00-R09, R40-R46), accounting for 69.8%(192 cases), 16.7%(46 cases)and 13.1%(36 cases), respectively.There was a significant difference in the distribution of diagnoses between the Cardiology and Neurology Departments( χ2=67.8, P<0.001). The Cardiology Department had a higher proportion of patients with 5 or more other diagnoses[153(55.6%) vs.59(21.5%)], while Neurology Department had a higher proportion of patients with 2-4 other diagnoses(64.0% vs.36.4%). When comparing the distribution of other diagnoses during hospitalization in the Cardiology Department, the proportion of patients with only one other diagnosis was higher in the first visit group of Neurology Department compared to those with two or more diagnoses, which was statistically significant( χ2=9.3, P=0.03). There was no statistical difference in hospitalization days between the two departments( χ2=2.2, P=0.14). Although there was a significant difference in patient outcomes, with a lower proportion of patients not recovering or dying in the Neurology Department( χ2=4.6, P=0.03), there was no significant difference in the interval between hospitalizations for the two groups(180 d, χ2=0.1, P=0.72; 90 d, χ2=1.8, P=0.18). Conclusions:The need for early prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of patients with both cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is still a pressing concern.Exploring a combined diagnosis and treatment model for multiple diseases may prove useful in overcoming the limitations of the current single disease diagnosis and treatment approach.

OBJECTIVETo explore the value of nutrition management in obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy(LSG).
METHODSClinical data of 22 obese T2DM patients undergoing LSG from March 2013 to July 2015 in Fudan University Pudong Medical Center were collected. All the patients strictly followed the specialized instruction by nutritionists: diabetic and low calorie diet 3347.2 to 5020.8 kJ (800 to 1200 kcal) per day before the operation; low calorie liquid diet 2510.4 kJ(600 kcal) per day before operation for promoting gastric emptying; fasting diet before postoperative ventilation; clear liquid diet 1673.6 to 2510.4 kJ (400 to 600 kcal) per day after postoperative ventilation (liquid intake >2000 ml); low fat liquid diet 2928.8 to 3765.6 kJ (700 to 900 kcal) per day (protein 60 g per day at least, 2000 ml liquid) 2 weeks after the operation; semi-liquid diet 1 month after operation and gradually normal diet. All the 22 patients were followed up at 1 week, 1, 3, 6 months after operation on time. Changes of body weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, body mass index(BMI), blood glucose indexes induding fasting blood glucose(FBG), 2-hour postparandial blood glucose(PBG), fasting C-peptide, 2-hour postprandial C-peptide, fasting serum inculin(FINS), 2-hour postprandial inculin(INS), HbAlc, blood pressure and blood lipid indexes were observed and analyzed before and 1 week, 1, 3, 6 months after operation.
RESULTSThe average age of 22 patients (10 men and 12 women) was 38.6 years (18 to 66 years). The duration of diabetes varied from 1 month to 15 years. Comorbidity included 12 patients of high blood pressure, 14 of fatty liver, 1 of coronary heart disease, 1 of gout, 1 of chronic thyroiditis and 1 of menstrual disorder. LSG was performed successfully in all the patients and no severe complications and transference to laparotomy occurred. As compared to pre-operation, at 6 months after operation, the average body weight decreased from (103.9±20.2) kg to (80.9±12.6) kg (t=6.294, P=0.000), waist circumference from (118.6±13.8) cm to (96.4±8.0) cm (t=6.331, P=0.000), hip circumference from (116.9±12.6) cm to (104.0±7.7) cm (t=3.854, P=0.000), BMI from (36.2±5.9) kg/mto (27.9±3.5) kg/m(t=5.630, P=0.000), showing a decreasing trend over time. There was no underweight patient after 6 months follow-up. As compared to pre-operation, at 6 months after operation, the average FBG reduced from (7.4±1.4) mmol/L to (6.0±0.9) mmol/L (t=3.172, P=0.003), 2 h PBG from (14.1±4.9) mmol/L to (7.5±2.2) mmol/L (t=7.026, P=0.000), FINS from (160.0±71.9) mIU/L to (43.8±20.8) mIU/L (t=7.259, P=0.000), 2-hour postprandial INS from (437.6±261.4) mIU/L to (140.5±104.6) mIU/L (t=5.858, P=0.000), fasting C-peptide from (1.1±0.6) μg/L to (0.7±0.3) μg/L (t=3.560, P=0.000), 2-hour postprandial C-peptide from (2.5±0.9) μg/L to (1.5±0.7) μg/L (t=3.865, P=0.000), HbAlc from (8.0±1.6)% to (5.9±0.6)% (t=5.953, P=0.000), showing a decreasing trend over time except FBG, 2h postprandial C-peptide and HbAlc(all P<0.05). FBG and 2-hour PBG of 16 patients returned to normal 3 months after the operation. Blood pressure and trigly ceride decreased obviously 6 months after operation compared to pre-operation with significant difference(P<0.05). At 6 months after operation, blood pressure of 8 comorbidity patients with high blood pressure became normal (8/12, 66.7%) and of 4 patients improved(4/12, 33.3%); B ultrasound examination revealed normal in 11 comorbidity patients with fatty liver(11/14,78.6%) and improvement in 3 patients (3/14,15.4%). Blood uric acid of the gout patient and the menstruation of the menstrual disorder patient returned to normal 3 months and 1 month after the operation respectively.
CONCLUSIONAs for obese patients with T2DM undergoing LSG, reasonable nutrition management is helpful to decrease body weight, and to obtain an ideal improvement of blood glucose and blood lipid levels.
