ObjectiveTo explore the prevalence rate of gynecologic diseases and its character of age distribution of women in Chengdu, China. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed gynecologic examination reports of women who underwent physical examination from December 2011 to November 2012. ResultsThis study included 23 389 women; the overall detection rate of cervix erosion was 20.98%. The detection rate of cervix erosion of women aged from 20 (included) to 30 was 44.81%, ranking first. The overall rate of abnormal cervical cytology was 0.93%, and the rate of women aged 41 to 50 was 1.20%, ranking first. The overall detection rate of uterine myoma, uterine adenomyosis, and ovarian tumor was 11.12%, 1.33%, and 3.60%, respectively. Fourty-one to 50 was the peak age of uterine myoma, uterine adenomyosis, and ovarian tumor; the detection rate was 19.95%, 2.46%, and 4.76%, respectively. The difference was significant in different age (P<0.05). ConclusionThe detection rate of gynecological common disease is high in childbearing aged women. Women aged 41-50 is the high-risk population of gynecological common disease.
ObjectiveTo investigate Chinese psychiatrists' mental health. MethodsLiteratures published from January 1989 to March 31, 2013 were searched through Chinese network databases (CNKI, Weipu, Wanfang) and English network database (OVID). Factors of Symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90) were extracted and compared with Chinese norm. These were analyzed by Meta analysis method. ResultsEleven articles were obtained and analyzed, including 725 psychiatrists. The research illustrated that the differences between psychiatrists and Chinese norm of somatization[WMD=0.19, 95%CI (0.05, 0.33), P=0.008], depression[WMD=0.25, 95%CI (0.06, 0.43), P=0.009], anxiety[WMD=0.28, 95%CI (0.09, 0.47), P=0.004], hostility[WMD=0.15, 95%CI (0.01, 0.30), P=0.03], and phobia[WMD=0.11, 95%CI (0.02, 0.20), P=0.02] were significant, while the other 4 factors were not significant (P>0.05). ConclusionPsychiatrists' mental health is poor and intervention measures need to be adopted to improve psychiatrists' mental health.
ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) in health check-up population of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from 2011 to 2012 and to discuss the relationship between SCH and metabolic syndrome (MS). MethodsThose who received thyroid function tests and health examination in the West China Hospital of Sichuan University from 2011 to 2012 were enrolled in the study. The data of medical history, blood pressure, height, weight, thyroid function, TG, HDL-C, FPG were collected. All data were analyzed by SPSS 18.0 software. ResultsA total of 11 976 persons (7 488 male and 4 488 female) received thyroid function tests. There were 1 820 persons (884 males and 936 females, 15.20%) who suffered from SCH. The SCH prevalence was significantly higher in females (20.86%) than that in males (11.81%) (P < 0.01). The people over 60 years old had the highest SCH prevalence. There were 1 145 persons (1 005 males and 140 females) suffered from MS among all 11 976 persons. The MS prevalence was significantly higher in males (13.42%) than that in females (3.12%) (P < 0.01). The SCH prevalence of the MS group was higher, which in the health group was lower (P < 0.01). The TSH level in the MS group was higher, while it was lower in the health group. ConclusionThe prevalence of SCH is higher in health check-up population; and SCH apparently increases the risk of morbidity of MS.
