Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore how body mass index (BMI) relates to the risk levels of thyroid nodules in a healthy population across multiple centers in China.
- A total of 6070 participants were analyzed, revealing that a significant percentage of them had thyroid nodules, with low BMI and high fasting blood glucose being key indicators for higher-risk nodules.
- The findings suggest that individuals with a lower BMI, particularly those aged 55 and older, have a higher likelihood of detecting high-risk thyroid nodules compared to those with normal weight or obesity.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate EZSCAN detection in pilots and the general population, and determine the significance of EZSCAN detection in the identification of a pilot's health.
Methods: A total of 87 cases of non-diabetic Air Force pilots (pilot group) and 49 cases from the general population without diabetes were collected. These two groups of subjects underwent EZSCAN detection, as well as the detection of blood glucose, lipid and uric acid levels.
Objective: To observe the influences of mental health promotion and mental intervention on mental health status of professionals.
Method: 2878 professionals for physical examination were selected and randomly divided into treatment group and control group, with 1443 professionals and 1435 professionals, respectively. Then, the difference of mental health status before and after mental intervention between two groups was compared.
Background: Arterial stiffness is related to inflammation, oxidative stress, advanced glycation end products (AGEs), and endothelial dysfunction. Vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) is both as an adhesion molecule involving in inflammation and as an amine oxidase producing aldehyde and hydrogen peroxide involved in protein cross-linking, oxidative stress and endothelial injury.
Objective: We explored the associations of plasma soluble VAP-1 (sVAP-1) with arterial stiffness.
In order to understand insertion/delation (I/D) polymorphism of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene in pilots,and to explore the relationship between ACE gene I/D polymorphism and the performance of the pilots, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to determine the genotypes for an I/D polymorphism in intron 16 of the ACE gene in 118 pilots and 96 healthy subjects as controls. The result showed that the I/D polymorphism in intron 16 of the ACE gene was categorized into three genotypes: two deletion alleles (genotype DD), heterozygous alleles (genotype ID), and two insertion alleles (genotype II). The genotype II and I allele frequency were significantly higher in pilots (44.
