Objective:To investigate the efficacy of personalized family doctor contract services on risk factors of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in high-risk population.Methods:Ten matched-community health centers of Shenzhen Luohu district were divided into intervention group and control group by cluster randomiztion. Subjects with high risks of ASCVD were screened out as intervention group from contracted residents who visited these centers and had complete data of the China-PAR model from August 2018 to April 2019. The control group received conventional general family doctor contract services. The individualized management were given to the intervention group after fully understanding patients′ ideas, concerns, and expectations (ICE). After 2-year intervention, score changes of ASCVD risk factors within and between groups were compared.Results:A total of 571 patients were enrolled, including 288 in the intervention group and 283 in the control group. After 2 years of intervention, 7 and 18 were lost to follow-up in two groups, respectively. Finally, 281 in the intervention group and 265 in the control group were included in the study. At baseline, there was no significant difference in ASCVD scores between the intervention group and the control group [(13.33±3.54) vs. (13.09±3.54) points; t=0.84, P=0.403], and the scores in both groups decreased significantly after the intervention [(10.89±4.01), (11.62±4.11) points], while the intervention group decreased more significantly (both P<0.05). Among the risk factors at baseline, HDL-C and diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group, and there were no significant differences in other factors between the two groups. After the intervention, the levels of total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in the two groups decreased significantly, and the number of people taking antihypertensive drugs increased significantly ( P<0.001 and P<0.05); HDL-C decreased in the control group ( P=0.023). After the intervention, compared to control group the intervention group had a higher proportion of patients taking antihypertensive drugs, with lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure ( P<0.05). After the intervention, the increase rate of HDL-C in the intervention group was more than that in the control group, and the decrease rate was less than that in the control group (χ 2=6.65, P=0.036). Conclusion:Family doctor contract services can reduce the risk factors of ASCVD, and personalized family doctor contract services can further improve the effects in the prevention and control of ASCVD. However, the effects might be insignificant and inconsistent for the ASCVD risk factors with deeper management requirements or no specific management measures, which highlights the complexity and diversity of ASCVD prevention and control, calling for multi-level and multi-faceted thinking and exploration.

Objective:To study the prevalence and clinical characteristics of hepatitis D patients.Methods:A total of 832 144 HBsAg positive persons who were from infectious department of Southwest Hospital Affiliated to Army Military Medical University were screened from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2020. A total of 13 585 subjects completed relevant Hepatitis Delta virus (HDV) biomarker tests, 157 HDV patients were evaluated. The mean age was 53 ± 13 years, with a range of 22-85 years. The majority of these subjects were male. The prevalence, clinical characteristics, the outcome of 28 days follow-up and the influencing factors of the outcome were analyzed.Results:In recent 10 years, the screening rate related to hepatitis D was only 1.6% (13 585/832 144), and the screening rate was the highest in 2011, up to 4.13% (962/23 289); The positive rate of screening was only 1.17% (157/13 346). In 2012, the positive rate of screening was the highest, up to 3.56% (58/1627). In Southwest Hospital, the source of disease was 66.24% (104/157) in Chongqing, 22.93% (36/157) in Sichuan, 8.28% (13/157) in Guizhou, 1.27% (2/157) in Yunnan, and 0.64% (1/157) in each of Jiangxi and Tibet. Of 157 patients, 29 (18.47%) had non-cirrhotic with chronic low bilirubin hepatitis, 23.57% (37/157) was non-cirrhotic with chronic high bilirubin hepatitis, 28.66% (45/157) had acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), 27.39% (42/157) had compensated cirrhosis or decompensated cirrhosis, and 1.91% (3/157) had primary hepatocellular carcinoma. The incidence of disease progression was 48.89% (22/48) of chronic-on-acute liver failure>33.33%(1/3) of primary hepatocellular carcinoma>25.58%(11/43) of compensated or decompensated cirrhosis>18.92%(7/37) of non-cirrhotic with chronic high bilirubin hepatitis>6.90%(2/29) of non-cirrhotic with chronic low bilirubin hepatitis ( P<0.05). Among them, 7.64%(12/157) had hepatic encephalopathy, and the rate of disease progression was 83.33%(10/12) ( P<0.05); 3.82% (6/157) of them had combined with other hepatophilic viruses including hepatitis C virus (HCV), Epstein-barr virus, (EBV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections. Logistic regression analysis showed that old age, complication with hepatic encephalopathy, hyperbilirubinemia and prolonged coagulation time were independent risk factors affecting the outcome of hepatitis D. Conclusions:In recent 10 years, the screening rate of hepatitis D is low and the positive rate is not high. It should be noted that HDV infection can accelerate the progress of hepatitis and increase the risk of adverse liver outcomes.

Objective To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of curcumin on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury. Methods Totally 24 SD rats were randomly divided into a control group, a LPS group and a LPS+curcumin group (n=8 in each group). The degree of lung injury (oxygen partial pressure, wet/dry ratio, pathological scores) and inflammatory levels [tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1, Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) expression] of the lung were detected in different groups. Results Oxygen partial pressure was significantly lower in the LPS group than that in the control group (P<0.05), while wet/dry ratio, pathological scores and expression levels of TNF-α, IL-6, MCP-1, TLR4 and HMGB1 were significantly higher in the LPS group than those in the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the LPS group, curcumin significantly reduced wet/dry ratio, pathological scores and expression levels of TNF-α, IL-6, MCP-1, TLR4 and HMGB1 in the LPS+curcumin group (P<0.05), while it significantly improved oxygen partial pressure (P<0.05). Conclusion Curcumin might protect LPS-induced acute lung injury through inhibition of TLR4-HMGB1-inflammation pathway.

A Survey on the current general practice residency training was carried out in January 2018 among 1 114 general practitioners (GPs) who attended the standardized residency training program during 2014-2017. Basic information was obtained from the management department, other information was obtained from questionnaire. Total 1089 valid questionnaires were received with a retrieval rate of 97.8%. The survey showed that the ratios of male trainees, trainees aged 20-30 years and with bachelor degree were increasing during 2014-2017. The participants were more satisfied with the teaching quality in general hospital bases than that in community practice bases. Participants suggested to improve teaching quality, add teaching contents of humanity courses and TCM knowledge. Only14.4%(157/1 089) participants choose GPs as their career because liked this specialty. And 77.7%(846/1 089) GPs understood the main work of GP. There were 81.4%(887/1 089) participants wanted to work in; 77.7%(846/1 089) participants thought that the prospect of general practice would be excellent or good. Increasing income, professional promotion and a sense of social recognition were their wishes. Standardized residency training is crucial for general practitioners to upgrade their quality and competence, to improve training quality and to develop incentive policies are necessary.

In left heart disease, pulmonary artery pressure would increase due to the elevated left atrial pressure. This type of pulmonary hypertension (PH) is belonged to type Ⅱ as a passive PH (pPH) in its classification. The essential cause of pPH is excessive blood volume. Recently, we have identified another type of pPH, which is induced by vasopressors. Vasopressor-induced pPH shares similar pathophysiological manifestations with left heart disease-induced pPH. pPH would, therefore, be aggressive if vasopressors were applied in patients with left heart disease, which may be common after cardiac surgery, because heart undergoing surgical trauma may require support of vasopressors. Unfortunately, pPH after cardiac surgery is often ignored because of the difficulty in diagnosis. To improve the understanding of pPH and its effect on outcomes, here we highlight the mechanisms of interaction between vasopressor-induced and left heart failure-induced pPH, and provide insights into its therapeutic options.
