Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of improving lifestyle on people with prehypertension by group intervention. Methods A community-based randomized controlled trial was conducted among 4 streets. 188 objects in intervention group took part in the intervention activities and 234 objects in control group were not given the regular guidance. Data collected through questionnaire at baseline, 6 months, 12 months and 18 months after intervention were compared through repeated ANOVA measurement. Results All the subjects in the intervention group showed statistical significance (all P<0.05) and alcohol consumption, smoking, oil intake, salt intake, number of thousand step equivalent, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) showed linear trends over time by univariate test of repeated measurement ANOVA. The alcohol consumption decreased 5.94 grams per day after intervention. The oil intake decreased 4.47 grams per day while salt intake decreased 0.56 grams per day. The number of thousand step equivalent increased 10.10 per day, and SBP decreased from (124.54±5.87) mmHg to (122.40±8.32) mmHg. DBP decreased from (79.47±4.86) mmHg to (77.14±6.05) mmHg. Only smoking, body mass index (BMI) and DBP had significant change over time in the control group. Smoking, salt intake, number of thousand step equivalent, BMI and DBP were significantly different (all P<0.05) between control and intervention groups, and the effect of interaction between groups and time span were statistically significant (all P<0.05) on indicators as salt intake, number of thousand step equivalent, BMI and DBP, by multivariate test of repeated measurement ANOVA. Conclusions Group intervention can be used to improve lifestyle of prehypertension people in community and control their blood pressure.

Abstract:
Objective To explore the prevalence of and clinical manifestation associated with myopathy in Chinese patients with systemic sclerosis(SSc). Methods This study was a cross-sectional study based on European Scleroderma Trials and Research group (EUSTAR) database in Peking Union Medical College Hospital(PUMCH) from February 2009 to December 2015. Demographic, clinical and laboratory data were analyzed in groups with and without myopathy. Results Of 429 Chinese SSc patients whose mean age of onset was (39.3±12.6) years old. Overall prevalence of myopathy was 22.6%. The presence of early satiety/vomiting(χ2=16.29, P<0.001), dysphagia (χ2=27.01,P<0.001), edema (χ2=17.74, P<0.001), and urine decreased(χ2=4.59, P=0.032) occurred more frequent in patients with myopathy than those without myopathy. The abnormal rate of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) detected by echocardiography in the myopathy group was higher than that of non-myopathy group (χ2=6.31, P=0.012). The elevation of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (t=1.06, P=0.011) and C reactive protein (t=0.87, P=0.001) were more higher in myopathy group than in non-myopathy group. Conclusions SSc associated myopathy is not uncommon. Compared to non-myopathy patients, SSc patients associated myopathy have a more severe inflammation response, and require more attention on cardiac and renal complications.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the serum levels of soluble inducible costimulator molecules ligand (ICOSL) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Serum levels of soluble ICOSL (Sicosl) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using plasma samples from 49 SLE patients with or without active lupus and 33 healthy subjects. Results The levels of sICOSL in patients with SLE, lupus nephritis (LN) or active SLE groups were lower than those in healthy controls (P1=0.004; P2=0.008;P3=0.003). However, we did not find any correlations between the concentration of sICOSL and disease activity or clinical indicators (anti-dsDNA titer, C3, C4, ESR, Scr, mTP, BUN) (all P>0.05), and laboratory indexes in positive groups and negative groups did not show difference (all P>0.05). Moreover, the application of corticosteroids or immunosuppressants did not affect the concentration of the sICOSL in SLE patients (t=-0.69, P=0.495). Conclusions Understanding the role of ICOSL in the occurrence and development of SLE may allow us to develop a promising therapeutic strategy for SLE.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between dinner-to-bed time, post-dinner walk and gastric cancer (GC). Methods 428 newly diagnosed GC patients and 441 age and gender matched healthy controls were recruited from local residents. A self-designed questionnaire was used to collect information including basic demographic characteristics, dinner-to-bed time interval and post-dinner walk etc. Results Shorter dinner-to-bed time was significantly associated with an increased risk of GC(ORadjusted=2.858,95% CI:1.893-4.314). Non post-dinner walk was associated with increased risk of GC as compared with post-dinner walk(OR=2.909, 95% CI:2.037-4.153). The risk of GC individuals with shorter dinner-to-bed time and no post-dinner walk caused higher risk than those with longer dinner-to-bed time and post-dinner walk(OR=6.427, 95% CI:3.964-10.419).The product of dinner-to-bed time and post-dinner walk was (ORadjusted=1.572, 95% CI:1.361-3.769)and the interaction index was 3.273. Conclusions The study suggests that both shorter dinner-to-bed time and no post-dinner walk are strong risk factors of GC, also the interaction of dinner-to-bed time and post-dinner walk significantly increase the risk of GC.

Abstract:
Objective To ascertain the epidemiological characteristics of clustered cases of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Wuxi, and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of HFMD. Methods Data on clustered cases of HFMD in Wuxi from 2009 to 2014 was collected to conduct descriptive analysis. Results From January 2009 to December 2014, 1 035 HFMD outbreaks affecting 4 959 individuals which accounting for 6.2% of all cases of HFMD were reported in Wuxi, in which 12 were classified as public health emergencies. The annual incidence peak of HFMD occurred during April to June, and sub-peak occurred in November. The majority of outbreaks (48.7%) and cases (48.0%) were concentrated in rural-urban continuum. Up to 77.6% of outbreaks occurred in kindergartens. The occurrence frequency in different districts of kindergartens showed statistical difference (χ2=128.21,P<0.001). A total of 220 outbreaks (21.3%) were reported within one day. The attack rate of which ranged from 0.02% to 100.00% (median: 1.6%), and the durations ranged from one to 46 days (median: 4 days). Correlation analysis indicated that non-timely reporting was positively related with the duration and cases number of the outbreak significantly (all P<0.001), with r value of 0. 627 and 0.219 respectively. Of all cases, 2 389 samples were tested, the positive rate was 42.2% (1 008/2 389). The tests indicated intestinal virus EV71 (45.3%) and CoxA16 (40.1%) were the two dominated types in positive samples. Conclusions Kindergartens of rural-urban continuum are areas with a prevalence of clustered cases of HFMD. Clustered cases of HFMD can be effectively controlled by enhancing surveillance in these kindergartens.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the carriage rate and antibiotic resistance of multidrug-resistant S. aureus among animal-related workers and general population in Guangdong Province. Methods We surveyed the study population by face-to-face questionnaire and nasal swab sampling. All S. aureus isolates were tested for antibiotic susceptibility test, and the data were analyzed by chi-squared test. Results The carriage rates of S. aureus, multidrug-resistant S. aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) were higher in animal-related workers than in controls (13.3% vs 9.3%; 9.5% vs 3.4%; 7.0% vs 1.4%; all P<0.01). The rates of S. aureus isolates showed high levels of resistance to penicillin, clindamycin, tetracycline and erythromycin, and the dominant multidrug resistance pattern of multidrug-resistant S. aureus isolates were mainly resistant to clindamycin, erythromycin and tetracycline. S. aureus strains isolated from animal-related workers showed higher levels of resistances to antibiotics, except for penicillin, than those from general population. The antibiotic-resistant rate was higher in MRSA isolates than in methicillin-sensitive S. aureus isolates. Conclusions This study suggests that occupational animal contact may lead to the infection of drug resistant bacteria.

Abstract:
Objective To clarify the research status of cervical cancer screening under the health perspective of China and foreign countries, in order to provide a scientific basis for going deeper. Methods A bibliometric analysis was conducted based on the papers from 1990 to 2014 in the CNKI core journals database and the Web of ScienceTM core collection database on the theme of cervical cancer screening under the health perspective. The annual literature distribution, author, direction, contribution were analyzed, which help to draw the outline of research scheme of China and foreign countries. Results Research developed in recent years, and the uptrend of China was stable. Lacking productive authors, unbalanced regional distribution, and obvious differences of institution distribution were found. Besides knowledge-attitude-behavior studies, China focused on results and techniques, while foreign countries focused on influencing factors and promotion. Most papers contributed to medical journals, but foreign countries presented a trend to cross with other subjects. Conclusions Both domestic and foreign research enter the stage of growth, and China has to improve in the area of depth and breadth, interdisciplinary and extensive attention.

Abstract:
Objective To compare and evaluate the safety of eight kinds of oral iron supplements that treat children with iron deficiency anemia(IDA) by using Network Meta-analysis. Methods We searched and collected domestic and foreign literatures on oral iron supplement for iron deficiency anemia children in CNKI, PubMed, Cochrane Library and Science Direct Database from the inception to July 2015. Statistical analysis was performed by Microsoft Excel 2013 software, we used the NetMetaXL macros in it to load the WinBUGS 1.4.3 software to conduct the calculate by random effects Bayesian models. The odds ratios (ORs) and mean ranking and the probability among eight kinds of oral irons were estimated. Results We identified 31 eligible studies which involved 3 417 children with IDA. In network analyses, there was higher risk that ferrous sulfate(OR=0.00, 95% CI:0.00-0.03), sodium iron chlorophyll (OR=0.03, 95% CI:0.00-0.39), ferrous succinate (OR=0.02, 95% CI:0.00-0.23), ferrous gluconate(OR=0.01, 95% CI: 0.00-0.07), multidimensional iron compounds(OR=0.01 95% CI:0.00-0.11), iron polymaltose complex(OR=0.02, 95% CI:0.00-0.19) and ferrous fumarate (OR=0.01, 95% CI:0.00-0.12) prevented side-effects when compared to iron dextran. Although iron dextran was ranked the regiment with the least favorable adverse event profile among eight kinds of oral irons (SUCRA=0.999 4), ferrous sulfate was the highest risk (SUCRA=0.034 1). Conclusions Our results suggest that consumers and clinicians might be more cautious when using ferrous sulfate to treat children with IDA, because of its highest risk among other oral iron supplements.

Abstract:
Objective To examine the mediating role of burnout in the relation between workplace violence and intent to leave using a sample of nurses in emergency departments. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 199 randomly selected nurses in emergency departments from eight first-rate of level three hospitals in Anhui province. Descriptive statistics, Spearman rank correlation analysis, and structural equation model were used to examine the mediating role of burnout in the relation between workplace violence and intent to leave. Results Among nurses in emergency department, workplace violence had a positive correlation with emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and intent to leave (all P<0.05). The burnout (emotional exhaustion and depersonalization) also had a positive correlation with intent to leave (all P<0.05). Path analyses demonstrated that emotional exhaustion (t=6.21, 95% CI:0.021-0.059) and depersonalization (t=5.39, 95% CI:0.019-0.056) mediated the relationship between workplace violence and intent to leave. Conclusions Both workplace violence and burnout are related to intent to leave among nurses in emergency department. Furthermore, emotional exhaustion and depersonalization mediate the relationship between workplace violence and intent to leave.

Abstract:
Objective To explore the sub-chronic toxicity effects of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) on cell cycle and the expression of cell cycle related microRNA 21(mir-21)and microRNA 192 (mir-192) of rat liver. Methods Thirty-two healthy sprague dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into three VCM exposure groups (5 mg/kg, 25 mg/kg and 125 mg/kg) and a control group (25 mg/kg clean air). The rats were exposed by intraperitoneal injection three times a week (every other day) for three months. The flow cytometry was used to measure the percent of each phase(G0/G1, S, and G2/M). The mir-21 and mir-192 was extracted and then quantified using real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR. Results The percentage of each phase of cell cycle was not significantly different among four groups (all P>0.05). The proportion of S-phase cells in 125 mg/kg group was higher than the control group(t=-4.363,P=0.024). Besides, the expressions of mir-21 varied significantly among four groups (H=16.064, P=0.001) and, furthermore, decreased significantly in both 25 mg/kg and 125 mg/kg group when they were compared with control and 5 mg/kg group (all P<0.05). Meanwhile, the expressions of mir-192 also varied significantly (H=15.939, P=0.001), and decreased significantly in both 25 mg/kg and 125 mg/kg group, compared with control and 5 mg/kg group (all P<0.05). Conclusions VCM sub-chronic exposure induced the increase of S-phase cells and decrease of the expression of mir-21 and mir-192.

Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the stress response in mouse testes following a single mild transient scrotal heat exposure (43 degrees C for 15 min). Methods Twenty-four male mice were randomly divided into four groups with six mice per group. Mice in scrotal hyperthermia group were subjected to a single heat stress of 43℃(treated) for 15 min and killed at 0.5 h, 2 h, and 6 h after heat exposure. The control mice were immersed in a water bath maintained at 22℃ and killed at 6 h after heat exposure. Histopathological analyses of testes were performed by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. Testicular germ cell apoptosis was determined by terminal dUTP nick-end labelling (TUNEL). The expression of testicular caspase-3 protein was measured using western blot. Results As expected, scrotal hyperthermia markedly increased the inside diameter of seminiferous tubules and disturbed the array of spermatogenic cells. Meanwhile, Scrotal hyperthermia clearly induced cytoplasmic vacuolization, pyknosis of nuclei and multinucleate spermatogenic cells in seminiferous tubules in heat-treated mice, especially at 6 h after heating. Paralleled with testicular lesion, acute scrotal hyperthermia significantly increased testicular germ cell apoptosis comparing with control group. In addition, scrotal hyperthermia obviously upregulated the expression level of active caspase-3 in testes. Conclusions A single, acute scrotal hyperthermia significantly induce testicular histological impairment and germ cell apoptosis.

Abstract:
Objective To analyze the air pollution situation in different areas of Hefei, China from 2012 to 2014, so as to provide suggestions of air pollution prevention for the city planning and the residents traveling. Methods This study described the temporal-spatial distribution characteristics of air quality index (AQI) in different regions of Hefei from 2012 to 2014, and analyzed the present situation and the possible causes of air pollution.The primary data for AQI were collected from the web database of Hefei's Environmental Protection Agency. And the results were analyzed with the software SPSS 16.0. Results From 2012 to 2014, the average of AQI appeared to decline after a growth. During this period, the degree of air pollution at Sanli Street, Changjiang Middle Road, Luyang district, Yaohai district and Baohe district were all higher than the average level of the whole city in Hefei. And the air pollution was heavier in winter than any other seasons in Hefei. Conclusions Air pollution in Hefei is related to both regional and seasonal changes.

Abstract:
In this paper, we compared different responses to the Ebola outbreak by the health quarantine system of China and the United States. We further analyzed the differences of ports screening for Ebola, designated port entry, aid for epidemic countries and isolation treatment for return infection cases in these two countries. Also, this paper put forward constructive views for China to do better in health quarantine. And three principles of international contagious disease prevention and control have been proposed: actively supporting the epidemic countries, strengthening the quarantine in transport and port and steadily enhancing the level of domestic public health.
