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.
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.
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.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence status and characteristics of dyslipidemia and cardiovascular risk factors in urban communities of Chengdu city. MethodsBy cluster sampling, a population of 994 inhabitants were selected from 14 urban communities in Chengdu city between February and October 2010. We investigated patients between 35-70 years old who lived in the area over 2 years, by using questionnaires survey, physical examination, and laboratory tests. According to the age, the respondents were divided into three groups: young group ( ≤ 44 years old), middle-aged group (45-59 years old) and elderly group ( ≥ 60 years old). We further investigated the major cardiovascular risk factors for hyperlipidemic patients. ResultsThe prevalence of dyslipidemia in Chengdu urban area was 28.47% (283/994), and standardized prevalence rate was 24.65% (male, 24.68%; female, 30.91%). The prevalence rate between male and female had significant diTherence (χ2=4.513, P=0.034). Female elderly group and middle-aged group had a significantly higher prevalence than the young group (P<0.05), while the male prevalence had no statistical diTherences among all age groups (P>0.05). Hypertension was most common in patients with dyslipidemia (male, 50.04%; female, 52.41%) followed by diabetes and coronary heart disease. There was no difference between male and female in the prevalence of dyslipidemia accompanied hypertension, history of stoke and coronary heart disease, abdominal obesity,or obesity (P>0.05). Higher prevalence with smoking and drinking was in male patients (P<0.05). ConclusionThe prevalence of dyslipidemia is relatively high in urban communities of Chengdu city. According to the region of hyperlipemia epidemiological characteristics and risk factors, by using comprehensive intervention measures, we can reduce the prevalence of dyslipidemia.
ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of impaired glucose regulation (IGR) and IGR combined with cardiovascular risk factors in rural areas of Chengdu City. MethodsFrom February to October 2010, we randomly sampled 1 016 patients in a rural community 100 kilometers away from the city center as the study subjects. The investigation was carried out by using questionnaire survey, physical examination and laboratory tests. The standard 75 g oral glucose tolerance test was used. ResultsA total of 1 016 subjects were investigated, among whom there were 431 males and 585 females with an average age of 56 years old. Of these subjects, 333 were diagnosed to have IGR with a rate of 32.77% (333/1 016). The age-adjusted standardized prevalence of pre-diabetes in rural areas in Chengdu was 32.52% (336/1 016), and the male and female prevalence were respectively 30.63% (132/431) and 34.36% (201/585) without significant difference (χ2=1.569，P=0.210). Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) was the most common type of glycometabolism abnormality. Women had a significantly higher prevalence of IGT than men. In IGR population, major cardiovascular risk factors were overweight and obesity (40.8%), high low density lipoprotein cholesterol (38.4%), high triglyceride (30.3%), hypertension (23.7%), smoking (24.3%), and drinking alcohol (23.7%). The stratified analysis showed that the prevalence of overweight, obesity and low high density lipoprotein cholesterol in female was significantly higher than that in males, while the prevalence of smoking and drinking alcohol was significantly higher in males. ConclusionIn rural areas, the prevalence of pre-diabetes is high and complicated with multiple cardiovascular risk factors.
ObjectiveTo investigate the association of arterial stiffness with cardiovascular risk factors. MethodsFrom July 2014 to August 2015, 1 599 participants aged over 65 years old were recruited from 10 communities located in the northern Shanghai. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV) was measured by SphygmoCor device. Cardiovascular risk factors were assessed by questionnaire, anthropometry or conventional biochemical measurements. SPSS 20.0 was applied for data management and statistical analysis. ResultsCf-PWV was significantly associated with cardiovascular risk factors (P<0.001). Moreover, with the accumulating cardiovascular risk factors, cf-PWV increased gradually and significantly (P<0.001). The increasing trend remained significant in all participants, in men and in women, respectively. ConclusionArterial stiffness is significantly associated with cardiovascular risk factors and their accumulation.
ObjectivesTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of Orlistat for obese patients with cardiovascular risk including hyperlipidemia, hypertension, diabetes and prediabetes.MethodsSinomed, CNKI, WanFang Data, PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library and ClinicalTrails.gov databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Orlistat for obese patients with cardiovascular risk such as hyperlipemia, diabetes, prediabetes and hypertension from inception to Jan 7th, 2017. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using Stata 14.0 software.ResultsA total of 28 RCTs were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, compared with placebo, Orlistat could significantly reduce the weight (MD=–2.85, 95%CI –3.47 to –2.24, P=0.000), waist (MD=–2.45, 95%CI –3.07 to –1.83, P=0.000) and BMI (MD=–1.29, 95%CI –2.08 to –0.49, P=0.002) of patients. Orlistat could also control the blood pressure, blood glucose and other cardiovascular risk factors well. Compared with the blank control, Orlistat could improve the waist and parts of cardiovascular risk factors (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse events of Orlistat was slightly higher than that of placebo, but most could be self-healing.ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that compared with placebo and blank control, Orlistat is effective for improving both weight loss and some cardiovascular risk factors. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of rehabilitation exercise on exercise tolerance and cardiovascular risk factors in patients with non-acute coronary syndrome (non-ACS) after interventional therapy.MethodsA total of 102 patients with coronary heart disease and non-ACS in our hospital from December 2018 to June 2019 were selected and randomly divided into a control group (n=51, 30 males and 21 females with an average age of 56.1±4.8 years) and a trial group (n=51, 34 males and 17 females with an average age of 55.1±4.9 years). The control group received routine treatment, while the trial group received regular supervised rehabilitation exercise on the basis of routine treatment. Patients were followed up for 6 months to compare the differences in cardiovascular risk factors (blood pressure, blood lipid, fasting blood glucose), 6-minute walking distance (6MWD), adverse lifestyle changes and treatment compliance between the two groups after treatment.ResultsThe difference of 6MWD between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). In the trial group, 6MWD increased after intervention compared with that before intervention, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Comparison of total cholesterol (TC), high density liptein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density liptein cholesterol (LDL-C) and fasting blood glucose in the trial group before and after intervention showed statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The differences in TC, HDL-C and LDL-C in the control group before and after intervention were statistically significant (P<0.05). It was statistically significant in dietary compliance rate, smoking cessation rate and alcohol cessation rate between the two groups (P<0.05); the differences in the dietary compliance and drug compliance of the trial group before and after intervention were statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionRegular supervised rehabilitation exercise can significantly improve the exercise tolerance and cardiovascular risk factors of non-ACS patients after coronary intervention treatment, so as to improve the quality of life and long-term prognosis of non-ACS patients, which is worthy of clinical application.
