  • Cross-Sectional Study on Pre-Hypertension Accompanied with Cardiovascular Risk Factors between Urban and Rural Areas in Chengdu

    Objective To investigate pre-hypertension in aspects of its incidence, accompanied cardiovascular risk factors, and difference between urban and rural areas in Chengdu. Methods By cluster random sampling method, a total of 2 011 patients aged 35-70 years from urban and rural communities in Chengdu were selected as respondents. The investigation was conducted through questionnaire, physical examination and laboratory tests, so as to find out the main cardiovascular risk factors of pre-hypertension. All data were dual input into computer by a specially-assigned person. SPSS 13.0 software was used for analysis, Chi-square test was adopted for categorical data, and Plt;0.05 was taken as an index for significant difference. Results a) The incidence rate of pre-hypertensive in Chengdu was 33.6%, and it was 45.67% and 46.31% in urban and rural areas, respectively. In rural area, more male (51.04%) were affected than female (42.83%). b) The smoking population with pre-hypertension were mainly the male, and the ratio of rural male was 60% (132/220), far higher than that of urban male which was 32.6% (59/181). c) The pre-hypertensive population accompanied with diabetes was higher in urban (27.97%) than rural (14.01%). d) The pre-hypertensive population accompanied with hypercholesterolemia or low HDL was 33.04% (150/454) in urban, as twice as that in rural which was 16.41% (76/471). e) The pre-hypertensive population accompanied with abdominal obesity was far higher in urban (28.41%) than rural (12.74%). Conclusion Smoking is the risk factor which needs to be primarily intervened for male hypertensive patients in rural area. Impaired glucose tolerance is the common risk factor for both urban and rural residents, and hyperlipidemia is the most primarily risk factor for urban pre-hypertensive patients, followed by diabetes, and abdominal obesity.

  • Epidemiological Study on Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia Associated with Cardiovascular Risk Factors between Urban and Rural Areas in Chengdu

    Objective To investigate the prevalence of hyperuricemia and the current status as well as differences of cardiovascular risk factors in hyperuricemia patients between urban and rural areas in Chengdu. Methods We randomly sampled 2 032 patients aged from 35 to 70 years age in urban and rural communities, using a questionnaire, physical examination and laboratory tests. Results a) The prevalence of hyperuricemia was 17.77%, which was higher in urban residents (21.38%) than that in rural residents (14.16%). b) The prevalence of hyperuricemia associated with hypercholesterolemia was higher in urban residents (34.10%) than that in rural residents (13.98%); urban women (39.06%) were higher than rural women (16.13%) and urban men (26.97%) were higher than rural men (12.20%). c) The prevalence of hyperuricemia associated with hypertension which was higher in urban residents (58.06%) than that in rural residents (32.64%); urban women (59.38%) were higher than rural women (35.48%) and urban men (56.18%) were higher than rural men (30.49%). d) The prevalence of hyperuricemia associated with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in urban women (28.91%) were lower than that in rural women (45.16%). Conclusion Hypercholesterolemia and hypertension are the most commonly seen cardiovascular risk factors accompanied in patients with hyperuricemia in urban areas, which has obviously higher prevalence than in rural areas. IGT is the most commonly seen cardiovascular risk factors accompanied in patients with hyperuricemia among rural women. But in aspects of hyperuricemia associated with impaired fasting glucose (IFG), hypertriglyceridemia, low high-density fetoprotein cholesterol, abdominal obesity and obesity, there is no difference between urban and rural areas.

  • Premature Coronary Artery Disease and Cardiovascular Risk Factors between Hui and Han Nationalities: A Comparative Analysis

    Objective To explore the difference of cardiovascular risk factors and coronary artery lesion between Hui nationality and Han nationality patients with premature coronary heart disease. Methods A total of 316 patients with premature coronary heart disease were divided into two groups, including the Hui group (78 cases) and the Han group (238 cases). Eight risk factors for premature coronary heart disease (including age, gender, body mass index, familial heredity, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and smoking history) and coronary artery lesion characteristics were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with the Han group, the Hui group had a higher prevalence of smoking history and myocardial infarction, but a lower prevalence of angina (Plt;0.05). Type A disease was the major type in both Hui and Han groups. Compared with the Han group, the rate of type C were higher. Single-vessel lesion was the major lesion in both Hui and Han groups. The incidence of three-vessel lesion in the Han group was significantly lower than that in the Hui group. Gensini score in the Hui group was higher than that in the Han group, with a significant difference (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Hui patients with premature coronary artery disease are more than Han patients with premature coronary artery disease in proportions of smoking, diabetes, and the lesions of the left anterior descending artery, the right coronary artery disease, three-vessel disease rate, and C-type lesions. The coronary artery disease of the Hui group is more serious.

    摘要:目的:探讨老年耐亚胺培南铜绿假单胞菌(IRPA)感染的危险因素以指导临床救治。 方法:采用病例对照研究,选取四川省人民医院干部科2006年1月~2008年12月IRPA院内感染老年患者32例,并随机选择同时期敏感铜绿假单胞菌院内感染48例作为对照,采用单因素(t检验,χ2检验)及多因素Logistic回归进行分析。结果:IRPA分离率为34.8%,IRPA对抗生素的耐药性远远高于敏感铜绿假单胞菌组,但对阿米卡星敏感率达81.3%。单因素分析发现,下列因素与IRPA感染有关:高龄、住院时间≥4周、高急性生理和慢性健康状况(APACHEⅡ)评分、慢性肺部疾病(慢性阻塞性肺疾病COPD/支气管扩张)、分离出IRPA前2周用过亚胺培南/美罗培南、早期联用抗生素、院内获得性肺炎(HAP)。多因素Logistic回归分析表明:长程住院[比值比(OR)= 14.887],APACHEⅡ评分≥16分(OR=38.908)以及分离出IRPA前2周用过亚胺培南/美罗培南(OR =12.945)是IRPA感染的独立危险因素。结论:长程住院、APACHEⅡ评分≥16分以及亚胺培南/美罗培南的使用是IRPA感染的危险因素。IRPA对阿米卡星敏感率相对较高,但治疗难度大。Abstract: Objective: To study the infection status and risk factors of nosocomial infection caused by imipenemresistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (IRPA) in elderly patients. Methods: By a casecontrol study, the data of 32 cases of IRPA nosocomial infections were analyzed from Jan. 2006. to Dec. 2008 in cadres Ward of Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital; 48 cases of Imipenemsensitive pseudomonas aeruginosa infection were randomized as control. Univariate analysis (T test and chisquare test )and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used for statistics. Results: The resistance to antibiotics of IRPA is much higher than the sensitive group.81.3% of IRPA were sensitive to amikacin. According to univariate analysis,the factors associated with the infection caused by IRPA were age, length of stay in hospital more than 4 weeks, high score of APACHEⅡ, chronic pulmonary disease (COPD/bronchiectasis),imipenem/meropenem used 2 weeks before isolation of IRPA, early combination therapy of antibiotics and hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified three independent factors: Length of stay in hospital more than 4 weeks, APACHEⅡ score≥16 and imipenem/meropenem used 2 weeks before isolation of IRPA. Conclusion: Long length of stay in hospital, APACHEⅡ score ≥16 and previous imipenem/meropenem use were independent risk factors for IRPA infection. Although the sensitivity of IRPA to amikacin was relatively high, it was difficult to treat in clinical practice.

  • High-normal Blood Pressure: A Blood Pressure Stage Needs Serious Attention

    ObjectiveTo investigate the significance of using the term "high-normal blood pressure" and its intervention in the early stage. MethodsIn 1992 and 2007, we performed two similar investigations focusing on cardiovascular risk factors in 711 people in Chengdu city. Since 114 individuals were diagnosed with hypertension, 597 people without hypertension were eligible and divided into two groups:the normal-pressure[<120/80 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa)] group and the high-normal blood pressure (systolic blood pressure 120-139 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure 80-89 mm Hg) group. Data in the two investigations were compared to explore the relationship among high-normal blood pressure, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and hypertension. ResultsThe high-normal blood pressure group had a higher level of CVD risk factors both in 1992 and 2007, and the 15-year cumulative incidence of hypertension in the high-normal blood pressure group was higher than that of normal-pressure group (91.2% vs. 22.2%, P<0.001). After adjusting for serum lipid, body weight and other CVD risk factors, high-normal blood pressure could predict the progression into hypertension[HR=5.354, 95% CI (4.094, 7.002), P=0.001]. There was no statistics difference in CVD prevalence in the two groups in 1992, but in 2007 the prevalence of CVD tended to be higher in the high-normal blood pressure group (6.6% vs. 3.1%, P=0.052). ConclusionHigh-normal blood pressure is a special stage of blood pressure with high level of CVD risk factors and high potential to progress into hypertension. The term should be emphasized and intervention should be done in the early stage for high-normal blood pressure people to prevent from hypertension and CVD.
