    Objective To study the prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) among physical examination population in Xianyang City, and to analyze the relationship between NAFLD and risk of cardiovascular diseases, so as to provide basis and suggestions for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases in population with NAFLD.Methods Totally 15 766 subjects were selected from the Health Management Center of Xianyang Central Hospital in 2019. Blood pressure, height, weight, blood glucose, blood lipid and other indices were collected to diagnose fatty liver by ultrasound. The 10 year risk assessment method of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) provided by the Guidelines for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Diseases in China (2017) was used to estimate the risk of ASCVD in the examined population in the next 10 years. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between NAFLD and the risk of ASCVD in the next 10 years.Results The overall prevalence of NAFLD was 38.3%, men had a higher prevalence than women (43.8% vs 29.6%) , and the prevalence of NAFLD was different in age groups (χ2=272.57, P<0.001). The risk of ASCVD in the next 10 years showed that the extremely high-risk was 2.0%, the high risk was 14.3%, the intermediate risk was 13.4% and the low risk was  70.3%. After controlling for age, sex, diabetes, hypertension, overweight or obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking confounding factors, compared with non NAFLD population, the risk of ASCVD in NAFLD population in the next 10 years increased by 31% (or = 1.31, 95%ci: 1.12~1.52), and the or values in male and female population were 1.35 (95%ci:1.12~1.61) and 1.20 (95%ci:0.86~1.68) respectively. The relationship between NAFLD and the risk of cardiovascular disease remained unchanged after excluding extremely high-risk groups. Conclusion The prevalence of NAFLD is high among the physical examination population in Xianyang city. NAFLD can increase the risk of ASCVD in the next 10 years. It is suggested that the risk assessment of cardiovascular disease should be carried out among the physical examination population of NAFLD, especially men, in order to slow down the progress of cardiovascular disease control.

    Objective To understand the basic characteristic analysis, composition and changes of death causes of inpatient deaths in a tertiary public hospital.Methods The medical record information retrieval system of the hospital was used to sort and analyze the data of age, gender, and main diagnosis of in-hospital deaths.Results From 2013 to 2020, there were 184 052-discharged patients and 563 hospitalized deaths, with a total case fatality rate of 3.06‰; the fatality rate of males was high than that of females and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=95.329, P<0.001). During the 8 years, the overall fatality rate of inpatients showed an increasing trend (χ2=4.921, P=0.027); the inpatient fatality rate of men showed a gradual increase (χ2=4.278, P=0.039), but the inpatient fatality rate of women was relatively stable (χ2=0.003, P=0.955). There were more males than females who died in hospital (2.09∶〖KG-*2/3〗1); the proportion of males and females in each age group was not completely consistent (χ2=24.141, P=0.004). The top three causes of death in hospitalized patients were tumors (28.77%), circulatory system diseases (24.69%), injury, poisoning and some other consequences of external causes (17.58%).Conclusion The in-hospital mortality rate of males is much higher than that of females. The society should pay attention to the health of males, and strengthen the prevention and intervention of tumors and circulatory system diseases.
