		                        			Objectives:To investigate the association between social determinants of health(SDOH)and incident stroke and analyze the main risk factors for stroke among resident with different SDOH levels. Methods:From 2012 to 2015,30 036 residents(≥35 years old)from 30 districts in 14 provincial-level administrative divisions in China were enrolled this study based on stratified multi-stage-random-sampling method.The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and related risk factors were investigated,and stroke events were followed up in 2018 to 2019.Principal component analysis was performed to establish SDOH scores based on 9 indicators related to socioeconomic and healthcare resources,participants were divided into low SDOH group(n=8 343)when it was≥-2.01 to<-1.14,middle SDOH group(n=7 257)when it was≥-1.14 to<0.10,and high SDOH group(n=8 457)when it was≥0.10 to≤5.79.Multivariate Cox regression was applied to estimate the association of SDOH levels with incident stroke.The random survival forest method was used to analyze the major risk factors in different SDOH levels. Results:A total of 24 057 participants were finally included,669(2.8%)participants developed stroke during a mean of(4.7±0.8)years follow-up.The incidence densities of stroke in the low,medium,and high SDOH groups were 468.39,628.85,and 700.39/100 000 person-years,respectively(Pdifference<0.05,Ptrend=0.01).Compared with individuals with low SDOH level group,fully HR for incident stroke among those with medium and high were 1.91(95%CI:1.54-2.36)and 1.59(95%CI:1.30-1.95),respectively(Ptrend<0.001).Advanced age is the primary risk factor for stroke in the population,especially in districts with high SDOH level.In districts with medium SDOH level,diabetes is an important risk factor for stroke.High blood pressure and alcohol consumption are important modifiable risk factors in low SDOH level districts. Conclusions:Present study shows that higher levels of SDOH are associated with increased risk of stroke.The main risk factors for stroke differ among participants with different SDOH level districts.Targeted interventions should be implemented to improve the prevention and treatment of stroke in populations with different levels of SDOH.

		                        			OBJECTIVE To optimize the processing technology of honey bran-fried Atractylodis Rhizoma, and to compare the anti-gastric ulcer effect before and after processing. METHODS Combing with entropy-weight and technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution model, L(9 34) orthogonal experiment design was adopted to optimize the processing technology of honey bran-fried Atractylodis Rhizoma using the comprehensive score of the contents of atractylone, β-cineole, atractylenolide Ⅲ and atractylodine as evaluation index, using the ratio of excipients to medicine, frying temperature and frying time as factors. The validation tests were conducted. The gastric ulcer model of mice was induced by intragastrical administration of anhydrous ethanol; using Compound aluminum hydroxide tablet as positive control, anti-gastric ulcer effect of Atractylodis Rhizoma was compared with that of honey bran-fried Atractylodis Rhizoma using the contents of serum inflammatory factors [interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)], ulcer index and inhibitory rate of gastric ulcer as evaluation indexes. RESULTS The optimal processing technology of honey bran-fried Atractylodis Rhizoma was as follows:ratio of adjuvant and medicinal materials of 3∶10 (g/g), frying temperature at 140 ℃ and frying time of 4 min. Results of 3 validation tests showed that the contents of 4 components (including atractylone), in honey bran-fried Atractylodis Rhizoma processed by the optimal technology kept stable (RSDs were 3.47%-5.80%, n=3); the comprehensive scores were 95.53%-95.89% (RSD=0.21%, n=3). Atractylodis Rhizoma and honey bran-fried Atractylodis Rhizoma could increase the serum content of IL-2 in mice, but reduce serum contents of IL-6 and TNF-α to varying degrees; honey bran-fried Atractylodis Rhizoma could significantly decrease its ulcer indexes (P<0.05 or P< 0.01); the improvement effect of honey bran-fried Atractylodis Rhizoma on the above indicators was generally better than that of the same dosage of Atractylodis Rhizoma (P<0.05 or P< 0.01). The inhibitory rates of low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose Atractylodis Rhizoma and honey bran-fried Atractylodis Rhizoma to gastric ulcer in mice were 9.18%, 19.30%, 30.70%, and 50.32%, 61.39%, 53.16%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The optimal processing technology of honey bran-fried Atractylodis Rhizoma is stable and feasible, and the anti-gastric ulcer effect of Atractylodis Rhizoma has been enhanced after being fried with honey bran.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the prevalence of albuminuria in Chinese residents aged >35 years and its potential association with cardiovascular disease (CVD).Methods:A total of 34 647 Chinese subjects aged ≥35 years were selected by stratified multi-stage random sampling from 2012 to 2015. Data were collected through questionnaires, physical examinations, and laboratory tests. Albuminuria was categorized into 3 types according to urinary albumin-to- creatinine ratio: normal (<30 mg/g), microalbuminuria (MAU, 30-300 mg/g), and macroalbuminuria (≥300 mg/g). Measurement data were expressed as xˉ±s, and t-tests were used for comparisons between indicators. Qualitative data were expressed as rate or constituent ratio, and the χ2 test or Kruskal-Wallis test was used to examine differences. Logistic regression was used for multivariate analyses. SAS 9.4 software was used for statistical analyses, and P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:The prevalence of abnormal albuminuria was 19.1%; the prevalence was 17.2% for MAU and lower in males (13.8%) than females (20.1%, P<0.01). The risk of CVD was higher among subjects with MAU ( OR=1.23, 95% CI 1.12-1.35) and macroalbuminuria ( OR=1.86, 95% CI 1.50-2.32). When MAU was complicated by hypertension and diabetes mellitus, the CVD risk was 1.76 times higher. Conclusions:The prevalence of MAU is high among Chinese subjects aged 35 years and over. Those with MAU have higher CVD risk, especially those with hypertension and diabetes mellitus.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) of Zeste homolog enhancer 2 (EZH2) gene and the risk of breast cancer.Methods:Recruiting 1 039 breast cancer patients and 1 040 controls at 22 referral hospitals nationwide in China, the genotype distribution of 3 SNPs loci of EZH2 genes was observed to detect the correlation between different genotypes and the risk of breast cancer genotypes EZH2 expression in breast cancer tissues and its correlation with patient prognosis were analyzed using breast cancer data from the database.Results:EZH2 rs6464926 CC genotype was compared with TT genotype (TT vs. CC: OR=1.362, 95% CI: 1.063-1.746, P=0.015) and dominant model (TC+TT vs .CC: OR=1.22, 95% CI: 1.004-1.483, P=0.045) .In women with BMI ≥24 kg/m 2, the TC genotype ( P=0.050), TT genotype ( P=0.025) and dominant model (TC+TT, P=0.021) of rs6464926 locus were significantly different from CC genotype in cancer risk. rs6464926 was correlated with EZH2 gene expression ( P=6.89E-47). EZH2 gene is highly expressed in breast cancer tissues, and patients with high expression were associated with shorter OS ( HR=1.27, P=0.013), DMFS ( HR=1.37, P<0.01), and RFS ( HR=1.44, P<0.01). Conclusions:The polymorphism rs6464926 of EZH2 gene is associated with breast cancer susceptibility in Chinese women. rs6464926 might regulate breast cancer risk and prognosis by changing EZH2 expression.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the efficacy of lanthanum carbonate versus calcium acetate in the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis. Methods:A total of 202 patients with chronic renal failure who received maintenance hemodialysis in Department of Nephrology, Yiwu Central Hospital from March 2016 to January 2017 were included in this study. These patients were on dialysis for ≥ 6 months with blood phosphorus level > 1.78 mmol/L before dialysis. They were randomly divided into the lanthanum carbonate ( n = 100) and calcium acetate ( n =102) groups. Two patients in the lanthanum carbonate group withdrew from the study due to intolerance of vomiting. All patients were treated for 9 months. During the study period, low calcium dialysate was rationally used, and strict dietary phosphate restriction was applied. The changes in serum phosphorus, calcium and parathyroid hormone contents before and after treatment were compared between the two groups, and they were compared between before and after treatment in each group. Results:During the treatment, the average dose of phosphate binder was 1 500 mg/d in the lanthanum carbonate group and 3 335 mg/d in the calcium acetate group. There were no significant differences in general demographic data and biochemical indexes between the two groups (both P > 0.05). No significant differences in dietary phosphorus content and dialysate calcium concentration were observed between the two groups (both P > 0.05). In the calcium acetate group, blood phosphorus content decreased from (2.12 ± 0.35) mmol/L before treatment to (1.55 ± 0.24) mmol/L after treatment ( t = 13.43, P < 0.01). In the lanthanum carbonate group, blood phosphorus content decreased from (2.14 ± 0.3) mmol/L before treatment to (1.45 ± 0.17) mmol/L after treatment ( t = 20.01, P < 0.01). In the lanthanum carbonate group, the difference in blood phosphorus content between before and after treatment was (0.69 ± 0.29) mmol/L, which was significantly higher than that in the calcium acetate group [(0.57 ± 0.37) mmol/L, t = 2.553, P < 0.01]. Hypercalcemia did not occur in both groups, and there were no significant differences in carotid intima thickening and presence of calcified plaque between the two groups (both P > 0.05). Conclusion:Under the premise of effectively implementing rational low calcium dialysate use and strict dietary phosphate restriction, both calcium acetate and lanthanum carbonate can effectively reduce the blood phosphorus level in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. Lanthanum carbonate has better effect in reducing serum phosphorus level than calcium acetate, but it is likely to produce gastrointestinal reactions. Neither treatment method bears the risk of hypercalcemia.

		                        			Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and establish a corresponding prognostic scoring model in patients with early-stage clinical features of hepatitis B-induced acute-on-chronic liver failure (HBV-ACLF).Methods:Clinical characteristics of 725 cases with hepatitis B-related acute-on-chronic hepatic dysfunction (HBV-ACHD) were retrospectively analyzed using Chinese group on the study of severe hepatitis B (COSSH). The independent risk factors associated with 90-day prognosis to establish a prognostic scoring model was analyzed by multivariate Cox regression, and was validated by 500 internal and 390 external HBV-ACHD patients.Results:Among 725 cases with HBV-ACHD, 76.8% were male, 96.8% had cirrhosis base,66.5% had complications of ascites, 4.1% had coagulation failure in respect to organ failure, and 9.2% had 90-day mortality rate. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that TBil, WBC and ALP were the best predictors of 90-day mortality rate in HBV-ACHD patients. The established scoring model was COSS-HACHADs = 0.75 × ln(WBC) + 0.57 × ln(TBil)-0.94 × ln(ALP) +10. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) of subjects was significantly higher than MELD, MELD-Na, CTP and CLIF-C ADs( P < 0.05). An analysis of 500 and 390 cases of internal random selection group and external group had similar verified results. Conclusion:HBV-ACHD patients are a group of people with decompensated cirrhosis combined with small number of organ failure, and the 90-day mortality rate is 9.2%. COSSH-ACHDs have a higher predictive effect on HBV-ACHD patients' 90-day prognosis, and thus provide evidence-based medicine for early clinical diagnosis and treatment.
