Objective: To investigate the prevalence, awareness, treatment and control rates of diabetes among residents in Fangshan District, Bejing Municipality, so as to provide reference for strengthening the prevention and control of diabetes. Methods: The residents aged 18 to 79 years were selected in Fangshan District using multistage stratified cluster sampling method from March to June 2023. Demographic information, lifestyle, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, and blood lipid were collected through questionnaire surveys, physical examinations and laboratory tests. The prevalence, awareness, treatment and control rates of diabetes among residents were analyzed and their influencing factors were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 4 438 residents were enrolled, including 2 367 males (53.33%) and 2 071 females (46.67%), and had a mean age of (44.99±14.90) years. The prevalence, awareness, treatment and control rates of diabetes were 15.75%, 57.37%, 56.22% and 22.90%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age (aged 30 to 39 years, OR=1.624, 95%CI: 1.011-2.609; aged 40 to 49 years, OR=3.469, 95%CI: 2.163-5.561; aged 50 to 59 years, OR=4.202, 95%CI: 2.595-6.803; aged 60 to 69 years, OR=7.229, 95%CI: 4.406-11.862; aged 70 to 79 years, OR=7.929, 95%CI: 4.665-13.479), obesity (OR=1.368, 95%CI: 1.071-1.748), hypertension (OR=1.943, 95%CI: 1.601-2.359) and dyslipidemia (OR=2.754, 95%CI: 2.287-3.317) were the factors affecting the prevalence of diabetes. Sex (women, OR=1.529, 95%CI: 1.019-2.293), age (aged 40 to 49 years, OR=4.971, 95%CI: 1.681-14.698; aged 50 to 59 years, OR=6.070, 95%CI: 2.045-18.020; aged 60 to 69 years, OR=6.902, 95%CI: 2.287-20.832; aged 70 to 79 years, OR=6.954, 95%CI: 2.191-22.070) and hypertension (OR=1.906, 95%CI: 1.337-2.718) were the factors affecting the awareness of diabetes. Age (aged 40 to 49 years, OR=4.699, 95%CI: 1.594-13.855; aged 50 to 59 years, OR=5.990, 95%CI: 2.023-17.732; aged 60 to 69 years, OR=7.134, 95%CI: 2.370-21.470; aged 70 to 79 years, OR=6.639, 95%CI: 2.102-20.964) and hypertension (OR=1.857, 95%CI: 1.304-2.645) were the factors affecting the treatment of diabetes. Age (aged 40 to 49 years, OR=2.948, 95%CI: 1.349-6.438; aged 60 to 69 years, OR=2.344, 95%CI: 1.049-5.234) was the factor affecting the control of diabetes. Conclusions The prevalence rate of diabetes among residents in Fangshan District was high, and the improvements of awareness rate, treatment rate and control rate were not obvious. Health education and management of diabetes should be strengthened for elderly, hypertensive and dyslipidemic residents.

Objective:To compare the changes of biliary microbiota after enteral extended biliary stents (EEBS) implantation with that of conventional plastic stents in animal experiment, and to preliminarily investigate its possible mechanism in preventing stents occlusion.Methods:A total of 12 healthy Bama minipigs were randomly assigned to the conventional plastic stent group ( n=6) and the EEBS group ( n=6) using simple random method. The bile samples of all pigs were collected before stents implantation and 4 weeks after stents placement. The biliary microbiota composition and diversity before and after different stents implantation were analyzed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and compared. Results:No complications including acute cholangitis, perforation, bleeding, or death occurred in 12 pigs. Eight days after stents implantation, stents were out of bile duct in all pigs under endoscopy, while the bile samples were collected again for analysis. The main composition of biliary microbiota at the phylum level were Proteobacteria, Firmicutes and Bacteroidota. Alpha-diversities revealed the Shannon ( P=0.004) and Simpson index ( P=0.008) significantly decreased in the conventional stent group after stents placement, and Bata diversity analysis also showed a significant difference in microbial composition (Anosim: R=0.514 8, P=0.011). There was no significant difference in Observed species index ( P=0.095), Chao1 index ( P=0.136), Shannon index ( P=0.353), Simpson index ( P=0.227) or Bata diversity (Anosim: R=0.059 3, P=0.187) in the EEBS group before and after stents placement. LEfSe algorithm indicated Bacteroides_ fragilis and Proteobacteria- Gammaproteobacteria- Enterobacterales- Enterobacteriaceae- scherichia_ Shigella- Escherichia_ coli significantly increased in the conventional stent group, and Desulfobacterota- Desulfovibrionia- Desulfovibrionales- Desulfovibrionaceae- Bilophila significantly increased in the EEBS group after stents placement. Conclusion:The biliary microbiota change slightly after EEBS implantation in the short-term, and EEBS may prevent duodenobiliary reflux by prolonging the reflux path.

Objective To assess the health risks of fluoride in drinking water in rural schools in drinking-water fluorosis areas in Shaanxi Province, and to provide a scientific basis for formulating measures to prevent fluoride and improve water quality. Methods The drinking water of rural schools in Guanzhong and northern Shaanxi Province was monitored from 2017 to 2020. The fluoride concentration was evaluated in accordance with the ^“Sanitary Standards for Drinking Water^” (GB5749-2006). The health risk assessment method recommended by USEPA was used to assess the health risk of rural students exposed to fluoride through drinking water in the two regions. Results A total of 2 826 water samples were monitored from 2017 to 2020. The overall compliance rate of fluoride in water quality was 92.29%, with an average concentration of 0.500 mg/L. The non-carcinogenic health risk of fluoride in drinking water in rural schools in drinking-water fluorosis areas was <1. There was no statistically significant difference in non-carcinogenic health risk of fluoride in water quality between different regions of the same age group (P > 0.05). In the same age group, the non-carcinogenic health risk of fluoride in groundwater was higher than that in surface water (P < 0.05). The order of non-carcinogenic health risk of fluoride in drinking water with different water treatment methods from high to low was disinfection only > sedimentation filtration > conventional treatment > untreated (P < 0.05). Conclusion The non-carcinogenic risk of oral intake of fluoride in drinking water from rural schools in drinking-water fluorosis areas in Shaanxi Province is still at an acceptable level. In the future, it is necessary to continue to promote comprehensive prevention and treatment measures focusing on water improvement and fluoride reduction.

Objective:To observe any effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on the expression of phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (p-ERK1/2) and phosphorylated cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element binding protein (p-CREB) in the spinal dorsal horns of diabetics experiencing neuropathic pain.Methods:Eight rats were randomly selected from 30 healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats as the normal group (N), and the remaining twenty-two rats were treated with a single high-dose intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ) to establish a neuropathic pain model. The rats modeled successfully were randomly divided into a model group (M, n=8) and an EA group ( n=8). In the EA group, electroacupuncture was applied at the bilateral Hou san li and Kunlun acupoints starting on the 15th day after the STZ injection. The daily sessions lasted 30 minutes for 1 week. Body weight (BW), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and paw withdrawal latency (PWL) were observed before the STZ injection and on the 7th, 14th, and 21st days afterward. The expression of p-ERK1/2 and p-CREB in the dorsal horns of the rats′ spinal cords was detected using western blotting. The count of p-CREB-positive cells in the dorsal horns and their co-localization with neurons was detected using immunofluorescence. Results:In comparison with the N group, the average BW of the M group on the 7th, 14th and 21st days after the STZ injection was significantly lower, while the average FBG was significantly higher. There was no significant difference between the M and N groups in the average PWL on the 7th day after the STZ injection, but it had decreased significantly in the M group on the 14th and 21st days. Compared with the M group, the average PWL of the EA group was significantly longer on the 21st day after the injection. The expression of p-ERK1/2 and p-CREB protein in the spines of the M group was significantly higher than in the N group. p-CREB positive cells were more numerous in the M group compared with the N group, while in the EA group they were fewer. P-CREB was co-located with neurons in the spinal dorsal horn.Conclusion:EA can alleviate neuropathic pain effectively, perhaps by inhibiting the expression of p-ERK1/2 and p-CREB in the dorsal horns of the spinal cord.

Objective:To carry out the clinical observation and research of OPT intense pulsed light combined parameters in the treatment of lip hairiness.Methods:A total of 94 female patients with lip hairiness who were treated with OPT intense pulsed light depilation were collected, of which 22 were treated with single parameter and 72 were treated with combined parameters, both once a month for 7 months. The treatment effects of the two groups were compared. From October 2013 to October 2019, the patients were collected from the Department of Medical Cosmetology, the Quzhou Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University.Results:With the increase of treatment times, the curative effect of patients gradually appeared, and the χ 2 value was 10.87 in the single parameter group and 105.25 in the combined parameter group. The difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the single parameter array between the two comparisons of different treatment times; there was statistical significance in the combined parameter group. The χ 2 value of treatment (1 vs. 3) times was 26.05, (1 vs. 7) times was 73.3, (3 vs. 7) times was 23.82 ( P<0.017). There was significant difference in the constituent ratio and total effective rate between the two groups after 3 and 7 times of treatment. The total effective rate of 3 times of treatment was 36.36% in single parameter group and 70.83% in combined parameter group; The total effective rate of 7 times of treatment was 59.09% in the single parameter group and 81.94% in the combined parameter group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Combined parameters OPT intense pulsed light therapy has better effect on lip hairiness than single parameter, and the treatment is safe and has good clinical application value.

Objective:To explore the damage of panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) to the subbasal nerve plexus (SNP) and its related mechanisms by comparing SNP changes in wide-field mosaic between before and after PRP treatment in diabetic patients.Methods:A randomized controlled study was conducted.Fifty-seven patients (114 eyes) with type 2 diabetes mellitus and binocular diabetic retinopathy (DR) stage IV to receive PRP treatment in Shanxi Eye Hospital from April to November 2019 were enrolled.The subjects were randomly divided into horizontal-vertical laser group and vertical-horizontal laser group according to a random number table.Twenty-nine eyes from 29 patients were assigned to the horizontal-vertical laser group with the photocoagulation sequence of temporal-nasal-inferior-superior.Twenty-eight eyes from 28 patients were assigned to the vertical-horizontal laser group with the photocoagulation sequence of inferior-superior-temporal-nasal.The severer eyes of each subject were chosen as the treatment eye and the contralateral eyes were chosen as the control eye.Corneal confocal laser scanning microscopy (CCM) was performed before PRP treatment, 1 week after each photocoagulation, and 1 month after the completion of PRP treatment to collect images of the SNP over an area of 2-3 mm around the whorl-like pattern.Captured images at each time were merged into one image by using the Photoshop CC 2017 image processing software, and then the nerve fiber length (NFL) of whorl-like pattern was measured by Neuron J image analysis software.McGill pain questionnaire was used to investigate the pain of patients after each photocoagulation.The NFL changes of SNP at different time points were compared between different eyes and different photocoagulation sequence groups.The study protocol adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by an Ethics Committee of Shanxi Eye Hospital (No.201804b). Written informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to entering the study cohort.Results:After PRP treatment, there were different degrees of neural structure loss of SNP nerve fibers in 11 treatment eyes, but there was no significant change in SNP nerve fibers in the control eyes.There were significant differences in NFL between the treatment eyes and the control eyes at various time points ( Feyes=2.020, P=0.039; Ftime=4.062, P=0.001). In the horizontal-vertical laser group, different degrees of neural structure loss on the photocoagulation side were found in SNP nerve fibers after the first and second photocoagulation.In the vertical-horizontal laser group, different degrees of neural structure loss on the photocoagulation side were found in SNP nerve fibers after the third and fourth photocoagulation.There was no significant difference in NFL of treatment eyes between the two groups ( Fgroup=0.099, P=0.754), but there was a significant difference in NFL at various time points before and after treatment ( Ftime=5.231, P<0.001). There were 9 (9/57) patients who complained of pain after PRP, which occurred at the first time of photocoagulation in 7 of them. Conclusions:SNP damage may occur after PRP in patients with DR, and SNP is prone to be damaged on the photocoagulation side when performing horizontal photocoagulation.

Objective:To estimate the correlation between DR and diabetic corneal nerve damage by comparing changes of corneal sub-basal nerve plexus (SNP) in the whorl-like region in different DR stages.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, 66 eyes of 66 type 2 diabetes patients aged 50-65 years old in Shanxi Eye Hospital from September 2018 to January 2019 were included.The subjects were divided into non-diabetic retinopathy group (NDR), non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy group (NPDR) and proliferative diabetic retinopathy group (PDR) accordingly, the right eyes were enrolled.20 eyes of 20 age and gender matched age-related cataract patients were also included as control group.All the subjects underwent confocal corneal microscopy to observe the morphology of SNP in the whorl-like region and measure the nerve fiber length (NFL) in this area.Covariance analysis using disease course as the covariate was used to analyze the differences of NFL value among groups, and Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between NFL value and DR stages.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Shanxi Eye Hospital.Written informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to entering the study cohort.Results:The whorl-like region were observed in all the eyes.In the control group, nerve fibers were uniform in thickness, densely distributed with regular course, and most of the tested eyes had intact whorl-like structure.Nerve fibers in different DR groups all showed generally decrease in diameter and density, with increase in tortuosity, accompanied by different degrees of whorl-like structure loss.Eyes in the NDR group and NPDR group mainly showed nerve structure loss in the whorl-like center; while some eyes in the PDR group also showed nerve structure loss in the inferior and temporal of the whorl-like region.The NFL values were (21.08±4.74), (16.47±6.35), (14.95±3.90), and (11.61±3.24)mm/mm 2 in the control group, the NDR group, the NPDR group, and the PDR group, respectively, the overall difference was statistically significant ( F=10.541, P<0.001). The NFL value in the control group was significantly higher than those in the different DR groups, the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.01). Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that there was a significant negative correlation between NFL value and DR stages ( rs=-0.356, P=0.003). Conclusions:Diabetic SNP damage occurs earlier than DR, and progress gradually with the development of DR; Different stages of DR are accompanied by different degrees of nerve structure loss; The structure loss begins at the whorl-like center and gradually develops to downward and the temporal side.The ophthalmologists should take the condition of ocular surface into account when treating ocular fundus diseases of diabetic patients.

Objective To analyze the change in trends and existing problems of the water quality testing capabilities of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in different cities and counties (districts) in Shaanxi Province from 2017 to 2019, and to provide references for laboratory capacity building. Methods A unified questionnaire was developed to investigate the water quality testing ability of all CDCs in different regions of Shaanxi Province, and the data were reported through the ^“National Drinking Water Quality Inspection Information System^”. Results From 2017 to 2019, in the testing of conventional indicators, the average number detected by the municipal CDCs was 37, 37, and 38, respectively, and all of them passed the measurement certification/laboratory accreditation. The average number detected by the county (district) CDCs was 30, 29, and 30, respectively, and only 65.14% of the county (district) CDCs passed the measurement certification/laboratory accreditation. In the testing of unconventional indicators, the average detectable number by city-level CDCs was 3, 5, and 4, respectively, while the average detectable number by county (district)-level CDCs was at most 1 item. There was no statistically significant difference in the average detection ability of CDCs at the city and county (district) levels in different regions in the same year (P>0.05); there was no significant difference in the average detection ability of CDCs at the city and county (district) levels in the same region in different years (P>0.05). Conclusion There is no difference in the CDC water quality testing level in different regions of Shaanxi Province, and the testing capacity needs to be further improved. It is recommended that the government should increase funding for disease control institutions, optimize the allocation of equipment and strengthen the construction of professional teams.

Objective:To investigate the cognitive level of wearing and removing personal protective equipment in COVID-19 isolation wards of Wuhan Fangcang shelter hospital, and provide the scientific basis for the training of hospital protection. Methods:Cognitive level of wearing and removing personal protective equipment in Wuhan Fangcang shelter hospital were investigated by using a questionnaire which included 14 related scales, including putting on and off protective equipment, hand hygiene disinfection and so on.Results:The total scale score of non-medical workers was 48.82±9.65, which was lower than the total scale score of doctors (55.46±1.29) and nurses (55.0±2.36), P<0.05. The each score of 14 items in the scale of non-medical workers was all lower than those of doctors and nurses ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in scale scores among doctors, nurses and medical technicians. The total score of the scale of non-medical workers in later period was 55.23±3.26, which was significantly higher than the total score of 44.50±10.14 in previous period, P<0.001. The total score of nurses and medical technicians in the later period was higher than those in the previous period, and the difference was statistically significant. There was no significant difference between the total score of the scale in the later period and that in the previous period. Conclusions:The cognition level of non-medical workers on wearing and removing personal protective devices was lower than those of doctors and nurses, strengthening the practice could improve cognition.
