[Gender difference in association between smoking and metabolic risks among community adults].
Cigarette smoking is a risk factor for the development of insulin resistance. However, whether a smoker has a lesser waist circumference (WC) and whether the potential changes in WC may reduce the benefits of smoking cessation remains in dispute. The aims of this study are to re-examines the relationships between smoking and metabolic risk factors by the data from Beijing adults. ⋯ Although smokers tend to have a lower waist circumference than nonsmokers, the males have higher risk factors for metabolic disorders. There is no significant relationship between smoking and metabolic syndrome in female subjects.

[Atherosclerotic stenosis of intracranial and extracranial cerebral arteries in patients with cerebral infarction and the correlative factors].
To investigate the distribution of atherosclerotic stenosis of cerebral arteries in Chinese patients suffered from cerebral infarction, and to determine if there are any factors correlating with intracranial and extracranial atherosclerosis. ⋯ The occurrence of stenosis in intracranial arteries is more frequent than that in extracranial arteries in Chinese patients with cerebral infarction, and the lipid level is higher in the intracranial artery group, most risk factors of atherosclerosis may not be major determinants of location for cerebral atherosclerosis.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study[A comparison of target controlled versus manually controlled infusion of propofol in elderly patients].
To evaluate the impact of anesthesia via target-controlled infusion (TCI) on drug consumption, intraoperative hemodynamic stability and recovery compared with manual-controlled infusion (MCI) in elderly patients. ⋯ Although target infusion system is easy to use and requires less time of adjustment, it fails to show added benefit on propofol consumption, hemodynamic stability, anesthesia depth and recovery in elderly patients.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Effect of pediatric TCI system for propofol plus remifentanil in pediatric short-duration surgery with laryngeal mask airway anesthesia].
To study the effect of a pediatric TCI patent system for propofol plus remifentanil in pediatric short-duration surgery with laryngeal mask airway (LMA) anesthesia. ⋯ The patented system for propofol 3 µg/ml effect compartment concentration plus remifentanil 2.5 ng/ml plasma concentration TCI displays stable hemodynamics, less stress, fewer complications and better clinical outcomes in pediatric short-duration surgery with LMA anesthesia.

Comparative Study Clinical Trial[The application of remifentanil-propofol and remifentanil-midazolam analgesia for choledochofiberscopic dilatation of bile duct].
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of remifentanil-propofol and remifentanil-midazolam analgesia for choledochofiberscopic dilatation of bile duct. ⋯ Both remifentanil-propofol and remifentanil-midazolam can provide safe and effective sedation and analgesia for choledochofiberscopic dilatation of bile duct. Remifentanil-midazolam provides more stable hemodynamics, more amnesia, moderate sedation duration and less side effects.
