  • Research on the Correlation between Lipid Accumulation Product and the Risk of Ischemic Cardiovascular Disease in Middle-aged and Elderly People of Chengdu Area

    ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between lipid accumulation product (LAP) and risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease (ICVD). MethodsThis cross-sectional study was performed among community residents from an urban community in Chengdu area between September 2011 and June 2012. Questionnaire survey was carried out. Each individual underwent biochemistry analysis and physical examination. In addition, brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (BaPWV) and augmentation index (AI) were detected. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to explore the relationship between LAP and each cardiovascular risk factor. Liner regression model was used to analyze the relationship between LAP and ICVD. ResultsA total of 780 individuals with complete data were included in the analysis. LAP was correlated with blood pressure, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, fasting blood glucose, and BaPWV (P<0.05). LAP was associated with the risk of ICVD (r=0.253, P<0.001). After being adjusted with sex, age and other cardiovascular risk factors, LAP was also correlated with the risk of ICVD (r=0.050, P<0.001). ConclusionsHigh LAP is associated with elevated cardiovascular risks and subclinical vascular damage. In addition, LAP is correlated with ICVD risk, thus it may be used to predict the incidence of ICVD to some extent. However, as the correlation is weak, our study does not support the direct use of this indicator to predict ICVD. Large-sample studies based on different races and ages are needed.

  • Survey of Occupational Exposures and Protective Condition in Operating Room for Interventional Therapy

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the occupational exposures and protective condition of medical staff in operating room for interventional therapy. MethodsFrom September to November in 2014, 46 medical staff in the operating room for interventional therapy were adopted to complete the occupational exposures and protection situation survey. After that, we analyzed and scored all the questionnaires. ResultsThe awareness of the medical staff about occupational exposures and occupational protection in the operating room was low; the awareness rates of doctors, nurses, and radiology technicians were 74.2%, 63.0% and 66.7%, respectively. The general condition of implement of occupational protection measures of the medical staff was bad, and the average rate of the doctors, nurses and radiology technicians was 51.3%, 43.9%, and 15.2%. ConclusionThe implement rates of occupational protection measures of the medical staff in Operating Room for interventional therapy differ much from the awareness rates. The rates in doctors and nurses are higher than that in radiology technicians. We should strengthen the education of radiation damage and protection measures in doctors, and enhance the training of iatrogenic injuries related knowledge in clinical radiology technicians to reduce occupational hazards.
