Since most patients with heart failure are re-admitted to the hospital, accurately identifying risk of re-admission is important for clinical decision making and management. This study plans develop an interpretable predictive model based on a Chinese population predicting six-month rates in patients. Research data were obtained from PhysioNet portal. To ensure robustness, we used three approaches variable selection. Six different machine learning models estimated selected variables. The ROC...
Nearly half of the population Northwest China live in Shaanxi province, but population-based data on epidemiologic characteristics congenital heart defects (CHD) this is limited. The study aimed to investigate prevalence and CHD among infants born between 2010 2013 province. Infants province were surveyed using a stratified multi-stage sampling method. Participant recorded by questionnaire, medical records reviewed was diagnosed specialized neonatal echocardiography. A Poisson regression...
Abstract Previous studies have yielded conflicting results on the associations of maternal Fe intake with birth outcomes. This study aimed to investigate between (total from diet and supplements, dietary total Fe, haeme non-haeme supplements use) adverse outcomes in Shaanxi Province Northwest China.

In this study, we aimed to determine the association between egg egg-derived cholesterol consumption, change trajectories, with among Chinese adults. Methods: Longitudinal data collected by China Health Nutrition Survey from 1997 2015 were analyzed. The latent growth mixture model was used identify consumption trajectories. Cox proportional hazard...
The aim of this study was to assess the effect low maternal weight at pre-pregnancy and average gestational gain on undernourished children their intellectual development. From October 2012 September 2013, we followed 1744 offspring women who participated in a trial conducted from 2002 2006. Pregnant recruited original could receive three prenatal health checks for free, which height were measured. WISC-IV used estimate development children. Weight both pregnant measured by trained...

The purpose this study was to investigate prevalence explore its association with socio-economic characteristics China.A total 13,532 children 0 ~ 36 months age were recruited as subjects from 45 counties 10 provinces China a 3-stage probability proportion size sampling. composite index anthropometric failure...
Abstract Background There has been little research on the perioperative D‐dimer levels in oesophageal cancer patients. Plasma can be used to predict outcome Methods A group of 66 patients and a control 12 with benign disease were enrolled this cohort study. The plasma during pre‐operation 3rd 9th day post‐operation periods prospectively examined analysed between two groups. also compared clinicopathological characteristics 3‐year survival Results increased both groups after surgery, but they...
Objective To describe severity of anemia and explore its determinants among children under 36 months old in rural western China. Study Design The family information 6711 was collected their hemoglobin measured 2005. A generalized estimated equation (GEE) linear model used to identify the childhood anemia. Results prevalence mild, moderate severe these 27.4%, 21.9% 3.2% respectively. GEE analysis showed that province-level region maternal affected not only 0–5 but also beyond 5 months. In...

Methods A stratified multi-stage sampling method used study born 2010–2013 (and their mothers) Shaanxi province Socio-demographic information collected using a structured questionnaire, medical records from local hospitals were determine final diagnosis defects. Poisson regression analysis performed assess association...
Socioeconomic disparities in birth weights (BWs) are associated with lifelong differences health and productivity. Understanding socioeconomic BW is presently of concern to develop public interventions that promote a good start life Northwest China. In the study, our objective investigate low high from 2010 2013 this region. Those single live births were recruited using stratified multistage sampling method Shaanxi province August December 2013. Data collected structured questionnaire review...
Selenium deficiency is a primary risk factor of Kashin-Beck disease (KBD). This study aimed to investigate whether children in endemic areas could maintain sufficient selenium intake after termination supplement administration, and evaluate their comprehensive nutritional status dietary structure. Duplicate portion sampling combined with questionnaire was adopted collect data on categories quantity all food ingested three consecutive days. Occipital hair also collected detect content by...
Abstract Background Since December 2019, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread quickly among population and brought a severe global impact.

In this study, we aimed to explore effect sociodemographic factors on 342 cities China from geographic perspective. Methods Official surveillance data about information China’s were collected. Local geographically weighted Poisson...
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between long-term trajectories of changes in cardiovascular risk factors (CVRFs) and cognitive impairment among Chinese adults over 60 years old. Data were obtained from Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey 2005-2018.
