Objective: To describe the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus( T2 DM) in rural Deqing County, Zhejiang Province, and explore its risk factors.
Methods: Random cluster sampling was used to select 8 rural communities in Deqing County, Zhejiang Province, and a cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2006-2008, 2011-2012 and 2013-2014, respectively. Totally, 6562 eligible subjects were investigated in 2006-2008, 11 763 eligible subjects in 2011-2012, and 10 904 eligible subjects in 2013-2014. Data on demography, life style and disease history, and physical examination such as height, weight and blood pressure were collected. Also, fasting plasma glucose was tested. T2 DM was defined as who having fasting plasma glucose ≥7. 0 mmol/L or was diagnosed by doctors or receiving diabetic treatment.
Results: In 2006-2008, 2011-2012 and 2013-2014, the standardized prevalences of T2 DM were 1. 2%, 1. 6% and 2. 1% and those of impaired fasting glucose( IFG) were 7. 2%, 18. 7% and22. 8%, respectively. There were increasing trends over years for both. After adjustment for other covariates in logistic regression, age( compared with age between 18 to 39. 9 years old: aOR_(40-59. 9)= 5. 20, 95% CI 2. 74-9. 89; aOR_(60-)= 8. 02, 95% CI 4. 19-15. 35), female( aOR = 1. 23, 95% CI 1. 02-1. 49), family history of T2 DM( aOR =4. 86, 95% CI 3. 49-6. 77), overweight/obesity( overweight: aOR = 1. 88, 95% CI1. 61-2. 20; obesity: aOR = 5. 10, 95% CI 4. 06-6. 41), hypertension( aOR = 2. 84, 95% CI 2. 44-3. 31), having meat mainly( aOR = 2. 25, 95% CI 1. 89-2. 69) and tea drinking( aOR = 0. 81, 95% CI 0. 68-0. 95) were significantly correlated with T2 DM.
Conclusion: The prevalence of T2 DM increased over time in rural Deqing County, China. Age, gender, family history of T2 DM, overweight or obesity, hypertension, diet and drinking tea were significantly related to T2 DM.

Background: Coronary angiography (CAG) and targeted temperature management (TTM) may improve clinical outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. This study aimed to assess whether the intervention effects differed according to timing and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) performance.
Methods And Results: Adult patients with presumed cardiac cause who underwent CAG and TTM within 24 hours following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest were included from the Korean nationwide out-of-hospital cardiac arrest registry.

Background: Malaria continues to be an important threat to public health and infects millions of children under 5 years of age each year. Although Ethiopia has set targets for at-risk group interventions to eradicate and manage malaria, the illness is still a serious public health problem in areas where it is endemic, especially in the unique lowlands in the Borena zone.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of malaria and associated factors among children in Borena's pastoral communities, Oromia Regional State, southern Ethiopia, in 2022.

Objectives: The prevalence of many psychiatric symptoms, including anxiety and depression, is higher in individuals born extremely preterm (EP) than in term-born individuals during childhood and adolescence. In this prospective study of adolescents born EP, we examined associations between early-life risk factors (prenatal maternal health conditions, socioeconomic and social factors) and anxiety and depression at 15 years of age.
Methods: We included 682 participants (53.

Purpose: Omicron is a variant with the highest number of mutations among all Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) viruses, making whole genome sequencing (WGS) an essential tool for public health surveillance and molecular epidemiology. It is important to note that surveillance data can provide insights into the virus evolution and disease control. This study aims to provide an overview of WGS results for the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Variant at Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung.
