Downloaded from Page 3 of 29 BMJ Open 3 1 2 3 ABSTRACT 4 5 OBJECTIVE: The association between tuberculosis (TB), diabetes (DM) and vitamin 6 7 D status is poorly characterised. We therefore: i) determined vitamin D status in TB 8 9 10 patients in relation to whether they had normal fasting blood glucose (FBG), pre-DM 11 12 or DM and ii) assessed whether baseline characteristics in TB patients with normal 13 14 FBG, pre-DM and DM status were associated with vitamin D deficiency. 15 For peer review only 16 METHOD: In TB patients consecutively attending six clinics or hospitals in China, 17 18 19 we measured 25 hydroxycholecalciferol [25-(OH)D3] at the time of registration using 20 21 electrochemiluminescence in a COBASE 601 Roche analyser by chemiluminescence 22 23 immunoassay. Data analysis was performed using the chi square test and multivariate 24 25 logistic regression. 26 27 RESULTS: There were 306 eligible TB patients, including 96 with smear positive 28 29 30 pulmonary TB, 187 with smear negative pulmonary TB and 23 with extra pulmonary 31 32 TB (EPTB). Of these, 95 (31%) had normal blood glucose, 83 (27%) had pre-DM and http://bmjopen.bmj.com/ 33 34 128 (42%) had DM. Median serum vitamin D levels were 16.1 ng/ml in TB patients 35 36 with normal FBG, 12.6 ng/ml in TB patients with pre-DM and 12.1 ng/ml in TB 37 38 39 patients with DM (P< 0.001). In TB patients with normal FBG, the odds of vitamin D 40 on September 30, 2021 by guest. Protected copyright. 41 deficiency (25-(OH)D3 <20 ng/ml) were significantly higher in patients with smear 42 43 negative TB (P=0.003), cigarette smokers (P=0.001) and the cold season (P<0.001). 44 45 Severe vitamin D deficiency (25-(OH)D3 < 10 ng/ml) was strongly associated with 46 47 living in a rural area for TB patients with pre-DM (P=0.043) and with being aged 60 48 49 50 years and over for DM-TB patients (P=0.031). 51 52 CONCLUSION: Vitamin D levels are lower in TB patients with pre-DM and DM and 53 54 are also affected by certain baseline characteristics including older age and rural 55 56 57 58 59 60 For peer review only - http://bmjopen.bmj.com/site/about/guidelines.xhtml BMJ Open: first published as 10.1136/bmjopen-2017-017557 on 25 September 2017.

TB programmes need to pay more attention to vitamin D status in their 4 5 patients, especially if there is co-existing pre-DM or DM. 6 7 8 9 10 STRENGTHS AND LIMITATIONS OF THIS STUDY 11 12 • In contrast to many previous studies on this subject in China, the current study 13 14 enrolled a large number of patients with tuberculosis who were consecutively 15 For peer review only 16 registered in the routine programme setting in urban and rural settings 17 18 19 • Rural settings were further divided into non-poverty and poverty areas to 20 21 assess the influence of this factor on 25-(OH)D3 levels 22 23 • Blood samples for measurement of 25-(OH)D3 were taken without collecting 24 25 detailed information about the patient’s history, and there is therefore no data 26 27 28 on duration of symptoms or signs which might have impacted on vitamin D 29 30 levels. 31 32 • The presence or absence of co-morbidities that affect vitamin D status http://bmjopen.bmj.com/ 33 34 depended on medical documentation or patient self-reports and these may 35 36 37 have been missed 38 39 • 25-(OH)D3 levels were only measured at one time before anti-TB treatment 40 on September 30, 2021 by guest.

  • 2019 International Religious Freedom Report
    CHINA (INCLUDES TIBET, XINJIANG, HONG KONG, AND MACAU) 2019 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary Reports on Hong Kong, Macau, Tibet, and Xinjiang are appended at the end of this report. The constitution, which cites the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party and the guidance of Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought, states that citizens have freedom of religious belief but limits protections for religious practice to “normal religious activities” and does not define “normal.” Despite Chairman Xi Jinping’s decree that all members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) must be “unyielding Marxist atheists,” the government continued to exercise control over religion and restrict the activities and personal freedom of religious adherents that it perceived as threatening state or CCP interests, according to religious groups, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and international media reports. The government recognizes five official religions – Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Protestantism, and Catholicism. Only religious groups belonging to the five state- sanctioned “patriotic religious associations” representing these religions are permitted to register with the government and officially permitted to hold worship services. There continued to be reports of deaths in custody and that the government tortured, physically abused, arrested, detained, sentenced to prison, subjected to forced indoctrination in CCP ideology, or harassed adherents of both registered and unregistered religious groups for activities related to their religious beliefs and practices. There were several reports of individuals committing suicide in detention, or, according to sources, as a result of being threatened and surveilled. In December Pastor Wang Yi was tried in secret and sentenced to nine years in prison by a court in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, in connection to his peaceful advocacy for religious freedom.

  • Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China
    Country Report for the Preparation of the First Report on the State of the World’s Animal Genetic Resources Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China June 2003 Beijing CONTENTS Executive Summary Biological diversity is the basis for the existence and development of human society and has aroused the increasing great attention of international society. In June 1992, more than 150 countries including China had jointly signed the "Pact of Biological Diversity". Domestic animal genetic resources are an important component of biological diversity, precious resources formed through long-term evolution, and also the closest and most direct part of relation with human beings. Therefore, in order to realize a sustainable, stable and high-efficient animal production, it is of great significance to meet even higher demand for animal and poultry product varieties and quality by human society, strengthen conservation, and effective, rational and sustainable utilization of animal and poultry genetic resources. The "Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report") was compiled in accordance with the requirements of the "World Status of Animal Genetic Resource " compiled by the FAO. The Ministry of Agriculture" (MOA) has attached great importance to the compilation of the Report, organized nearly 20 experts from administrative, technical extension, research institutes and universities to participate in the compilation team. In 1999, the first meeting of the compilation staff members had been held in the National Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Service, discussed on the compilation outline and division of labor in the Report compilation, and smoothly fulfilled the tasks to each of the compilers.
