Objective To investigate the association between lifestyle and risk of heart disease and diabetes in the elderly population in Xi'an City. Methods From January 2021 to January 2024, a staged cluster sampling method was used to investigate the lifestyle and the occurrence of heart disease and diabetes in elderly population aged 60 years and above in the communities of Xi'an. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between lifestyle and the risk of heart disease and diabetes. Results A total of 413 elderly people were investigated, of which 31.96% had heart disease, 27.12% had diabetes, and 10.90% had diabetes with heart disease. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age, BMI, family history, sweet food preference, smoking, and sitting and lying for a long time were risk factors for diabetes in the elderly population (P<0.05). Age, BMI, family history, history of diabetes, preference for salted products, smoking, drinking, and sitting and lying for a long time were risk factors for heart disease in the elderly population (P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence rates of heart disease and diabetes are high in the elderly population in Xi'an City. The risk of diabetes is related to unhealthy lifestyles such as sweet food preference, smoking, and sitting and lying for a long time, while heart disease is related to unhealthy lifestyles such as preference for salted products, smoking, drinking, and sitting and lying for a long time.

Objective:To identify the factors associated with the care needs of the older adults aged 65-105 by age groups,and to compare these factors across different age groups.Methods:A total of 12 244 older adults from the Chinese longitudinal healthy longevity survey(CLHLS)conducted in 2018 were included in the analyses.The participants were categorized into three age groups:young-old(aged 65-79),middle-old(aged 80-89),and oldest-old(aged 90-105).The level of disability was measured by the disability index(DI)in four dimensions,reflecting their care needs.Potential factors associated with care needs were selected based on the health ecological model(HEM),including per-spectives of personal characteristics,behavioral characteristics,interpersonal network,living and working conditions,and policy environment.Multifactor analysis was performed using multinomial Logistic regres-sion.Results:Among China's 12 244 older adults,43.4％had medium or high care needs.Factors for higher care needs of older adults included higher age,higher number of chronic diseases,no exercise habit,excessive sleep duration(≥9 h/d),depressive tendency,living with children or spouse,and un-educated(all P＜0.05).In addition,the young-old group who were past smokers(OR=2.009,95％CI:1.019-3.959),were past drinkers(OR=2.213,95％CI:1.141-4.291),and reported self-per-ceived poverty(OR=2.051,95％CI:1.189-3.540),had higher level of care needs.The middle-old group who were female(OR=1.373,95％CI:1.038-1.817),never drank alcohol(OR=1.551,95％CI:1.059-2.269),and were lack of medical insurance(OR=1.598,95％CI:1.053-2.426),and had higher level of care needs.The oldest-old group who were female(medium care needs vs.low care needs:OR=1.412,95％CI:1.062-1.878;high care needs vs.low care needs:OR=1.506,95％CI:1.137-1.993),reported self-perceived poverty(OR=2.064,95％CI:1.282-3.323),and were lack of medical insurance(OR=1.621,95％CI:1.148-2.291),and had higher level of care needs.Conclusion:The identical factors associated with care needs across different age groups include age,chronic disease,exercise,sleep,depression,living arrangement,and education.Smoking,alcohol consumption,and economic status are specific factors among the young-old group of the older adults,while gender and medical insurance are specific factors among the middle-old and the oldest-old group of the older adults.We recommend conducting prospective cohort studies and intervention studies among specific age groups on the above factors to provide reliable evidence for policy formulation.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To investigate the changes of liver pathology and its influencing factors in patients with chronic hepatitis B viral (HBV) infection and low level of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT).Methods:The clinical data of 135 with chronic HBV infection patients, in whom the serum ALT levels were less than two times of the upper limit of normal (ULN), were collected from the Affiliated Hospital of Medical School of Ningbo University and the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine during July 2017 and July 2019. The result of hepatic histological examination was reviewed, and the risk factors of obvious liver inflammation (G≥2) or fibrosis (S≥2) in patients were analyzed with Logistic regression analysis.Results:The pathological examination of liver tissue revealed G≥2 or S≥2 in 52 cases (38.5%). The univariate analysis showed that age, family history of HBV infection, ALT 1-<2×ULN, aspartate aminotransferase(AST)≥1×ULN, low platelet count(PLT)and prolongation of prothrombin time(PT)were associated with G≥2 or S≥2 in chronic HBV infection patients with low level ALT ( P<0.05 or <0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age( OR=1.052, 95% CI 1.007-1.100), family history of HBV infection( OR=5.448, 95% CI 2.191-13.548)and AST( OR=1.042, 95% CI 1.005-1.081)were independent risk factors of G≥2 or S≥2 in chronic HBV infection patients with low level ALT ( P<0.05 or <0.01). Conclusion:Age, family history of HBV infection and AST level can be used to judge the severity of liver pathological changes and necessity of antiviral treatment for patients with chronic HBV infection having ALT<2×ULN.

OBJECTIVE： To investigate the distribution， drug supply and quantity of licensed pharmacists in retail pharmacies around Third Grade Class A Hospitals， and to provide reference for decision-making of related management departments. METHODS： Field investigation and questionnaire survey were used to investigate the distribution， type， operating area， annual turnover， drug type， ranking of consumption sum， daily prescription amount and pharmacist allocation of 5 Third Grade Class A Hospitals in Beijing and general information of 100 surveyed pharmacists in 2017. RESULTS： There were 43 retail pharmacies in total within 1 km of 5 Third Grade Class A Hospitals， with an average of 8.60 retail pharmacies for each hospital. The number of retail pharmacies with distance between 200-400 m and 800-1 000 m was the largest （11）， of which 21 （48.84％） were chain drugstores. The operating area of 38 pharmacies （88.37％） was in the range of 100-175 m2， mainly ranging 100-125 m2 （16 pharmacies， 37.21％）. The annual turnover of 40 pharmacies were counted and ranged 50-10 000 ten thousand yuan， among which the pharmacies 0-200 m away from the hospital had the highest annual turnover. The average variety of drugs （prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs） was 2 511 kinds. 34 pharmacies （79.07％） had more varieties of over-the-counter drugs than prescription drugs， and the consumption sum of over-the-counter drugs was higher than that of prescription drugs in 26 pharmacies （60.47％）. Top 3 drugs in the list of consumption sum were antineoplastic drugs， cardiovascular drugs and anti-infective drugs. Average daily prescriptions of 28 drugstores （65.11％） were less than 10 pieces； average daily prescription were more than 20 pieces in only 7 pharmacies （16.28％）. On average， each pharmacy had 7.4 staff members and 1.37 licensed pharmacists. 58 staff members’ first degree was junior college （58％）， 38 staff members’ first degree was technical secondary school or high school （38％）， and only 3 （3％） staff members’ first degree was undergraduates or above. CONCLUSIONS： With the gradual promotion of “health care policy” and the outflow of more hospital prescriptions， the retail pharmacies around hospitals should increase their numbers， expand the operating area， accelerate the construction of licensed pharmacists and improve the education level of pharmacists so as to improve the pharmaceutical care ability.

Objective To investigate the analgesic effect of different concentrations of medetomidine and ropivacaine on knee arthroscopy in elderly patients in the orthopedics department. Methods 72 patients were di-vided into 4 groups,and from February 2016-September 2017 ,different concentrations of dexmedetomidin and ropivacaine were given to the patients after the operation,and compared the analgesic effects and adverse reactions of each group. Results The duration of analgesia in groups C and D were longer than group A and B and there were significant differences in the amount of fentanyl in the 4 groups after 24 h(F = 79.633,P < 0.05 )and there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the 4 groups(P > 0.05);1,3,6, 10,16,24 h after operation,The VAS scores in group C and D were significantly lower than those in group A and B(P < 0.05 ). Conclusion Dexmedetomidine plus ropivacaine can effectively improve the analgesic effect after knee arthroscopy,0.50 g/kg was the best concentration of dexmedetomidin.
