Abstract

Introduction: To find out the disease spectrum of corporate executives and screen the common chronic diseases.Methods: The physical examination data of corporate executives were collected to carry out cross-sectional study.Results: Among 231 subjects, there were one hundred and ninety four males, which made up 85.3%, and thirty seven females, which made up 14.7%. The detection rate of chronic diseases in corporate executive was high. Specifically, the incidence rate of blood viscosity rise was 87.8%; the incidence rate of blood lipid rise was 79.5%; the incidence rate of obesity and overweight was 76.7%; the infection rate of Helicobacter pylori was 55.7%; the prevalence rate of fatty liver was 52.1%; the prevalence rate of kidney stones was 43.5%; the incidence of abnormal pancreatic echo was 52.3%; the incidence rate of abnormal TCD was 66.2%; the detection rate of coarse gallbladder wall was 35.5%. The prevalence rate of bone mineral density reduction was 39.6%; the detection rate of reduction of diastolic function of left ventricle was 37.5%; the incidence rate of raised serum uric acid was 28.6%; the incidence rate of blood glucose going up was 22%; the incidence rate of liver cyst was 19.5%. The prevalence rate of blood LDL rise was 23.9%; the prevalence rate of abnormal thyroid was 21.3%; the incidence rate of arteriosclerosis was 17.5%; the prevalence rate of hypertension was 17.4%.Conclusion: The corporate executives are high risk group of common metabolic diseases and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, screening should be strengthened for them.

Highlights

  • To find out the disease spectrum of corporate executives and screen the common chronic diseases

  • For the purpose of understanding the health status of white collars and preventing the harm arising from chronic diseases in an early stage, an analysis of the disease spectrum of corporate executives after physical examination was conducted in the study

  • This survey indicated that the blood viscosity of corporate executives was 87.8%, far beyond that of public servants as 19.6% [4]; the incidence of blood lipid rise was as high as 79.5%, which was much higher than that of public servants as 18.6%; the incidence of blood glucose rise was 22%, higher than that of residents as 5.23% [5,6] as well as that of public servants as 10.5%; the incidence of fatty liver reached 52.1%, significantly higher than that of other populations as teachers(29.3%) [7]; the positive rate of kidney stones was 43.5%, greatly higher than that of the populations as 4.87% [8] ; and the overweight and obesity rates were 76.7%, greatly higher than that of the populations as 22.8% [1,9]

Summary

Introduction

To find out the disease spectrum of corporate executives and screen the common chronic diseases. Disease spectrum refers to the spectrum of various diseases arranged in the order of hazard degree and harmful for human health in a certain region. The investigation of disease spectrum is useful for relevant departments in implementing measures for diseases prevention targetedly. September 2011 the top 3 in disease spectrum of inpatients were circulatory system disease, injury, toxicosis and tumor [1]. High work pressure, imbalanced nutrition, and lack of physical exercise for long pervasively existed in white collars. For the purpose of understanding the health status of white collars and preventing the harm arising from chronic diseases in an early stage, an analysis of the disease spectrum of corporate executives after physical examination was conducted in the study
