Objective To investigate the morbidity of ocular fundus diseases in Tibetan above 40 in Maqin county, Qinghai Province. Methods A total of 2511 Tibetan above 40 in Maqin county, Qinghai Province were seelected by cluster sampling method. The sampling survey of ocular fundus diseases was performed on the individuals with indirect ophthalmoscope, and the results were compared with the domestic existing epidemiological data. Results Two hundred and thirty five (9.35%) cases were found to have abnormal ocular fundus, and the blindness rate due to the abnormal ocular fundus was 20.5% (80/391 eyes) which was lower than the blindness rate due to cataract (52.5%). Low vision and blindness led by ocular fundus diseases were found in 155 eyes (65.96%),including 74(47.74%) with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and 23 (9.79%) with retinoangiopathy. Conclusions The morbidity of ocular fundus disorder is higher in high plateau than that in backland; AMD and retinoangiopathy are the main diseases leading to blindness.

Methods : From 199811 t0 200811,3661 cases in our hospital carryed out statistics and analysis with reference to diet and lifestyle. Results : Han people with 2343 cases, Yi people with 1318 cases, in Han people, the rate of ulcer was 1626%,858% of duodenal ulcer,098% of compound ulcer,1434% of erosive hemorrhage gastritis,089% of stomach and esophagus; in Yi people,2527% of gastric ulcer,1282% of duodenal ulcer,25% of compound ulcer,1988% of erosive gastritis hemorrhage,152% of stomach and esophageal cancer. Conclusion : The upper digestive tract diseases, the incidence of stomach, duodenal ulcer and cancer incidence rate increased significantly in special diet groups in ethnic minority areas.
ObjectiveTo investigate the status quo of emergency resources in all township hospitals in a county of Aba Autonomous Region. MethodWe set up a uniform electronic version questionnaire between April 15th and 18th, 2015. The leaders of township hospitals filled in their information and uploaded the data including emergency medical services, human resources, medical device and technology application situation. Then, the data were statistically analyzed. ResultsFor these township hospitals, the service population was 2 206.05±846.95, the service radius was (25.5±14.3) km. The number of registered doctors per 1 000 people of resident population was 1.52, the number of registered nurses per 1 000 people of resident population was 0.47, and the number of hospital beds per 1 000 people of resident population was 1.69. The staff in all township hospitals included 74 doctors and 23 nurses. The constitution of positional titles and academic qualifications of doctors and nurses in these township hospitals was not significantly different (P>0.05). All township hospitals had a total of six ambulances, one of which was ambulance for rescue and monitoring, and the others were ordinary ambulances. The devices equipped in the ambulances and hospitals were not sufficient, and most doctors and nurses could only perform surrounding vein puncture, and debridement and suture surgery. They could not recue critically ill patients alone. ConclusionsFor these township hospitals, the service radius is too long, the number of doctors and nurses is too small, and the ability of service is insufficient. In order to meet the demand of emergency resources in ethnic areas as far as possible, we should increase investment and promote medical devices, increase the number of doctors and nurses, improve the personnel structure, and strengthen professional training.
ObjectiveTo explore the echocardiography characteristics of aortic valve disease (AVD) among different ethnic groups in Xinjiang.MethodsThe data of a large sample (n=130 358) of different ethnic groups in Xinjiang based on the results of echocardiography were analyzed between January 2011 and December 2016, and the echocardiography characteristics of AVD among the Han nationality and different ethnic minorities in Xinjiang were summarized.ResultsThe study recruited 130 358 patients, involving Han nationality (58.49%) and 33 ethnic minorities. The ethnic minorities included the Uygur (27.42%), Kazak (7.47%), Hui nationality (3.48%) and other minorities (3.13%). Apart from Uygur, Kazak and Hui nationality, no description was given due to the small sample sizes of other minorities (3.13%). In the total study population, the prevalence of aortic valve stenosis (AS) was 0.44%, and the prevalence of severe AS was 0.10%; the prevalence of aortic valve regurgitation (AR) was 0.37%, and the prevalence of severe AR was 0.02%; the prevalence of aortic valve calcification (AVC) was 6.51%, and the highest AVC prevalence existed in ≥75 years old age group (24.45%); the prevalence of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) was 0.54%, and the highest BAV prevalence existed in 18-44 years old age group (0.86%). Among different ethnic groups, the Uygur had the highest prevalence in terms of AS (0.60%), AR (0.63%) and BAV (0.88%), while the Han had the lowest prevalence in terms of AS (0.37%) and AR (0.24%), but the highest AVC prevalence existed in the Han nationality (7.83%). The etiology of AVD showed that the degenerative valve changes was the main cause of AS with the largest proportion of 61.97%. While the aorta root diseases (35.97%) and BAV (22.87%) were the main etiology of AR.ConclusionsIn Xinjiang the overall prevalence of AVD is low. In the elderly population, the Uygur, Kazak and Hui nationality have the higher AS prevalence than the Han nationality does. Different ethnic groups have different AVD characteristics based on the echocardiography. In the Uygur group, AVD presents the younger age of onset; the prevalence of BAV is the highest in the Uygur population, while the lowest in the Hui nationality.
