    Objective To investigate the correlation between dietary red meat intake and coronary heart disease (CHD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods Patients of T2DM complicated with CHD in Nanshan District, Shenzhen were randomly selected as the case group and patients of T2DM without CHD as the control group. Two groups were matched by age ( ± 2 years) at a 1∶1 ratio. Self-made questionnaire and simplified food frequency questionnaire were used to investigate all the subjects. Conditional logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between dietary red meat consumption and T2DM complicated with CHD.Results A total of 120 patients in the case group and 120 in the control group were investigated. The median of red meat intakes was 50.00(21.43,100.00) g per day in the case group and 42.86(21.43,50.00) g per day in the control group (P<0.05).Conditional logistic regression showed that the OR of T2DM combined with CHD increased with the increase of dietary red meat intake(Ptrend<0.05).After adjusting for confounding variables, the risks of CHD in T2DM patients with red meat intake of 25-50 g per day and >50 g per day were 2.01 times (95%CI: 0.77-5.22) and 6.76 times (95%CI: 1.55-29.50) that of the patients with red meat intake < 25 g per day, respectively.Conclusion Dietary red meat intake of greater than 50 g per day may be a risk factor for CHD in T2DM patients.

    Objective To estimate the epidemiological burden of norovirus (NoVs) acute gastroenteritis in Guangdong Province, so as to provide scientific basis for formulating or adjusting epidemic prevention and control strategies.Methods Using data from infectious diarrheal disease surveillance, diarrhea related surveillance, and investigation results in Guangdong Province from 2013 to 2017, the epidemiological burden of NoVs acute gastroenteritis was assessed by morbidity, disability adjusted life years ( DALYs), and the ratio of the number of cases reported by the internet to the number of actual incidence cases.Results The total number of cases of NoVs infectious gastroenteritis was 3.1027 million persons/year (2.535 9-4.037 6 million persons/year) in Guangdong Province from 2013 to 2017. The annual average number of medical visits was estimated to be 1.278 3 million persons/year (1.044 8-1.663 5 million persons/year). The annual average number of inpatients was estimated to be 383 persons/year (313-499 persons/year). The ratio of the number of cases reported by the internet to the number of actual incidence cases was 1∶1 203 (1∶860-1∶1 771). The average total annual burden was 19 200.55 DALYs(16 919.20-25 001.83 DALYs), and the per capita burden was 0.18 DALYs/thousand person-years (0.15-0.23 DALYs/thousand person-years).Conclusion The burden of acute gastroenteritis caused by NoVs was high in Guangdong Province. It is necessary to strengthen the management of prevention and control, as well as the publicity and education.

    Objective To analyze the occurrence and related factors of adverse delivery outcomes of second-born pregnant women in Kaifeng City, and provide a basis for formulating intervention measures to avoid adverse maternal and infant outcomes.Methods A second-born pregnant woman who had established a fertility file and gave birth in the obstetrics department of a hospital in Kaifeng from January 2017 to December 2019 was selected as the research object. The basic conditions and complications of pregnancy were collected, and the relevant data of delivery were matched. Descriptive epidemiological analysis was used to analyze, and univariate and multivariate analysis were used to analyze the factors affecting the adverse delivery outcomes.Results A total of 2 208 second-born pregnant women who met the research conditions and matched the obstetric data were included in the study, aged 23-43 years old, with an average age of (30.93 ± 5.71) years. The pre-pregnancy BMI of 18.5~23.9 kg/m2 accounted for 66.17%. Secondary specialized school or high school was the main educational level (39.67%). The annual household income was mainly 50,000 to 90,000 yuan (50.68%). 1 689 had a normal delivery outcome, and 519 had an adverse delivery outcome, with an incidence rate of 23.51%. Among them,21 cases were stillbirths (4.05%), 183 cases (35.26%) were born prematurely, 81 cases (15.61%) were giant infants, 87 cases (16.76%) were low birth weight infants, 57 cases (10.98%) were neonatal asphyxia,66 cases (12.72%) were neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, and 24 cases (4.62%) were neonatal deformity. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that ages were 35-38, 39-43 years (OR=5.083, 10.433), pre-pregnancy BMI≥24.0 (OR=3.375), abortion frequency ≥ 3 tines(OR=3.725), gestational hypertension ( OR=2.452), gestational diabetes (OR=4.191), fetal distress (OR=2.040), and premature rupture of membranes (OR=7.338) were risk factors for adverse delivery outcomes in second-born pregnant women.Conclusion The incidence of adverse delivery outcomes among second-born pregnant women in Kaifeng is relatively high, and premature delivery is the main adverse outcome. There are many factors influencing adverse delivery outcomes. It is recommended to strengthen health education for second-born mothers during pregnancy, develop adaptive birth plans for advanced age parturient women and second-born pregnant women with complications, screen for high-risk pregnancy factors and clinical intervention management, reduce adverse pregnancy and delivery outcomes, and ensure maternal and infant safety.

    Objective To assess the exposure levels of di-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) and its correlation with lifestyle in college students in Guangzhou.Methods A convenient sampling method was used to recruit college students from East and North campuses of Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou. The participant was asked to provide a morning urine sample and complete a questionnaire on general demographic information, dietary habits and use of personal care products. The concentration of mono (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), a primary metabolite of DEHP in urine samples was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The correlation between MEHP concentration levels and influencing factors were analyzed by using univariate and multivariate logistic regressions.Results A total of 123 valid questionnaires matched with urine samples were collected. Of the participants, 44.7% were male and 61.0% were majored in medicine-related specialties. The detection rate of MEHP in urine samples was 90.2%, with a median of 0.49 μg/ml. In the multivariate logistic regression model, the college students who used take-out lunch boxes more than once a week (OR = 2.910) were more likely to have higher MEHP concentrations in the morning urine, while those who used shower gel ≥7 times a week (OR = 0.445) or touched plush toys (OR = 0.282) were less likely to have higher MEHP concentrations in the morning urine.Conclusion The detection rate of MEHP in urine of college students in Guangzhou was high, indicating that the risk of DEHP exposure in this population was higher, and related to personal lifestyle and the use of related plastic products. College students should be encouraged to form a healthy lifestyle, and try to reducing the level of DEHP exposure in the body.

    Objective To investigate the status of blood glucose control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its related factors, so as to provide scientific basis for adjusting the management of diabetic patients.Methods All T2DM patients registered in a hospital of Ya'an City were investigated, including basic information (gender, age, course of disease, education level, etc.), compliance with hypoglycemic drugs, exercise, blood glucose monitoring, diet control, complications of diabetes, etc., and morning venous blood was collected for detection of HbA1c. The results were analyzed by descriptive analysis, and the influencing factors of blood glucose control were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis.Results A total of 1 073 T2DM patients aged 38-86 years were investigated, with an average age of (62.53 ± 7.36) years, and more males (711 cases, 66.26%). The education level was mainly in junior high school and senior high school / secondary specialized school, accounting for 58.06%. The main course of diabetes was<5 years, accounting for 46.69%. Among them, 250 cases reached the standard of blood glucose control, with a rate of 23.30%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the older the age (OR=2.776), the better the compliance of hypoglycemic drugs (OR=3.225), the better the exercise habits (OR=2.213), the frequency of blood glucose monitoring≥10 times per month (OR=2.442), and the more strict the diet (OR=4.200), the more likely the T2DM patients to reached the standard of blood glucose control.The more complications (OR=0.287) and the longer the course of disease (OR=0.325),the lower the possibility to reached the standard of blood glucose control.Conclusion The blood glucose control level of T2DM patients in this hospital is not ideal, and there are many factors affecting the blood glucose control level of patients with diabetes in this area. The relevant departments should adjust the policies according to the characteristics of the population to ensure the blood glucose control of patients and avoid the complications.

    Objective To analyze the human resource allocation for responding to the COVID-19 epidemic in Shenzhen disease prevention and control system.Methods The personnel information of centers for disease control and prevention (CDCs) at municipal and district levels was collected, and the quantity and quality of emergency prevention and control related personnel were statistically described and analyzed.Results There were 855 permanent staff in CDPCs at the municipal and district levels. The actual numbers of employees were 1 408, including 937 (66.5%) staff who participated in the prevention and control of the COVID-19 epidemic. After the outbreak, the proportion of public health professionals for emergency response increased significantly (from 40.9% to 48.8%). The permanent staff ratio and the quality of personnel involved in the COVID-19 prevention and control of the municipal CDCs were higher than those of the district CDCs.Conclusion The proportion of human resources input in public health emergency in Shenzhen CDC system is not less than 66.5%. There are certain differences in the composition of personnel for emergency prevention and control between the municipal and district CDCs. It is suggested to establish and improve the allocation mechanism of public health emergency human resources, expand professional and technical personnel, and finally form a long-term development of human resource mechanism for Shenzhen disease prevention and control system.

    Objective To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics, and CT image changes of COVID-19 cases, so as to provide reference for local prevention and treatment.Methods Medical records and CT imaging data of all confirmed COVID-19 cases were collected from People's Hospitals of Shangcheng and Luoshan counties during January 23 to February 23, 2020. Descriptive epidemiological analysis method was used to analyze the data.Results Fifty COVID-19 cases were diagnosed. The male to female sex ratio was 1.38∶1. The average age was 50.92 ± 14.63 years. Of the cases, 31 (62%) were aged 45-64 years, 39 (78%) had epidemiological exposure history, 11 (22%) had no definite history of epidemiological exposure. Six family-clustered outbreaks occurred, involving 13 patients. The incubation period was 1-23 days, with an average of 5.95 ± 4.24 days. The main symptoms of the cases were fever (84%) and cough (72%). On admission, 43 cases (86%) had normal white blood cell (WBC) count or decreased absolute lymphocyte count, 40 cases (80%) had elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and 26 cases (52%) had elevated C-reactive protein (CRP); 15 cases (30%) were complicated with primary underlying diseases. Forty patients (80%) were administered with two or more antiviral drugs. Two weeks after admission, 40 cases (80%) showed that the lesion area was gradually reduced on CT images.Conclusion Most patients have a clear history of epidemiological exposure, family-clustered outbreaks occurred, and the main clinical symptoms are fever and cough. Normal or decreased WBCs and elevated ESR are more common, which has reference value for clinical diagnosis. CT shows that the lesion area is enlarged first and then gradually absorbed. Active antiviral and symptomatic treatment can improve the symptoms.
