ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the prevalence of diabetes and impaired glucose regulation in high risks community residents in Songjiang District of Shanghai, and to explore the risk factors affecting their blood glucose metabolism, providing effective suggestions for improving community diabetes prevention and treatment. Methods Questionnaire, physical examination and laboratory testing were used to collect information on the basic characteristics and blood glucose levels of 21 035 residents in Songjiang District who were assessed to be at high risk of diabetes. Results A total of 3 008 people with impaired regulation and 2 241 patients with diabetes were detected.The detection rates were 14.3% and 10.6%, respectively.It was found that as the residents′ age was higher, their education level was lower, high-risk factors for them were numerous, and their detection rates of diabetes and impaired sugar regulation were higher.It was found that age, gender, history of impaired glucose regulation, relatives with type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and overweight/obesity were all factors influencing blood glucose metabolism (P < 0.05). Conclusion Blood glucose screening in high-risk population of diabetes is helpful for the early detection of diabetic patients and those with impaired glucose regulation.It is necessary to strengthen the attention of population at risk of diabetes and take appropriate interventions.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the disinfection quality and provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of infectious diseases in nurseries and kindergartens in Changning District of Shanghai. Methods On-site investigation and sampling examination were used during the continuous monitoring of the effect of disinfection in nurseries and kindergartens in Changning District of Shanghai. Results The eligible rates of disinfection quality during 2010-2014 in the nurseries and kindergartens of Changning District in Shanghai were 98.07%,98.93%,99.09%,97.11% and 98.10% successively. The eligible rates of indoor air, surfaces of environmental objects, hands of staff, eating utensils, disinfection solution in use were 99.74%,99.67%,93.24%,99.06% and 98.09% respectively. Conclusion The sanitary disinfection quality in nurseries and kindergartens of Changning in Shanghai is satisfactory as a whole, however,there is still weakness in the disinfection quality of the hands of staff, disinfection solution in use and eating utensils.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the impact of water level changes on the distribution of snails around lakes, and to study the possibility of forecasting the distribution of snails according to changes of water level reacted by remote sensing images.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>All information including water level information of Xingzi Hydrometric Station from 1997 to 2007, twelve TM images of Poyang Lake between 1998 and 2006 were collected. The water areas of Poyang Lake was extracted by MNDWI threshold approach, and the relationships between water areas from TM images and water level from Hydrometric Station was analyzed; Majiawan and Menqiantan marshland of Zhuxi village, Xingzi county was chosen as study pilot to set frames and investigate snails 2991 frames in 2007, and the information of snails of this pilot from 1998 to 2006 was collected to analyze the relationships between snails and water level.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The water areas of Poyang Lake extracted from Remote Sensing images from 1998 to 2006 was 1658.73 - 5873.48 km(2), and the corresponding daily water level of Xingzi Hydrometric Station was 9.96 - 21.72 m, according to correlation analysis, they were positive correlation relationship, the correlation coefficient was 0.96 (P < 0.01), and build a model: S = 5189.96 x ln(h) - 10 284.97; the percent of frames with living snail of zhuxi pilot from 1998 - 2007 was 28.33% - 77.46%, the corresponding monthly average water level of last August was 13.19 - 21.96 m, the corresponding highest water level of last year was 15.97 - 21.96 m, according to correlation analysis. The percent of frames with living snail of zhuxi pilot was negatively correlated with the corresponding monthly average water level of last August and the corresponding highest water level of last year, and the correlation coefficient was -0.69 (P < 0.05), and -0.77 (P < 0.01) respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Water areas of Poyang Lake extracted from remote sensing images could well express the actual changes of water level, and the highest water level ahead of the year investigating snails influence the distribution of snails, thus we can estimate the distribution of snails around lakes by remote sensing images.</p>
