Div = - 1 The study shows that the salt intake of Chinese people is high again According to a new study released by Queen Mary College of London University, the average daily salt intake of Chinese adults in the past 40 years is 10 G, more than twice the amount recommended by the World Health Organization They analyzed a large number of published data on salt intake of Chinese residents, involving 900 children and 26000 adults They found that salt intake of Chinese residents has been high in the past 40 years, and also found differences between the north and the south According to the research, the average salt intake of residents in northern China is 11.2g per day, which is lower than that of 12.8g in 1980s The researchers believe that the reasons include the Chinese government's efforts to raise the awareness of salt reduction of the whole people, and the gradual decrease of people's dependence on pickles and other foods due to the rich vegetables all year round But the downward trend is not in southern China The average salt intake of Southern residents increased from 8.8 grams per day in the 1980s to 10.2 grams today The researchers think the reason may be that the government's efforts to reduce salt have been offset by factors such as people eating more processed food and eating out more Http://www.xinhuanet.com/tech/2019-07/16/c_.htm the State Council recently issued the opinions of the State Council on the implementation of Health China action, and the national level issued the health China action (2019-2030) It is clearly proposed that China will carry out prevention and control actions for four major chronic diseases, namely, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes The data shows that at present, the death toll of chronic non communicable diseases represented by these four kinds of diseases accounts for 88% of the total death toll, and the disease burden caused by these diseases accounts for more than 70% of the total disease burden It is understood that the health China action will carry out monitoring, testing, early diagnosis and treatment, standardized treatment and other suggestions throughout four major chronic disease prevention and control actions In terms of strategy, it will change from focusing on "treating the existing disease" to "treating the existing disease", and put forward specific prevention and control programs from the aspects of individuals, society and government Http://news.scienceet.cn/htmlnews/2019/7/428414.shtm Chinese researchers published new gene editing technology: the highest editing efficiency can reach 80% Peking University researchers recently published research papers online in the British journal Nature Biotechnology, and reported a new single base editing technology of RNA for the first time This new RNA editing technology is called Leaper Using this technology, researchers have achieved efficient and accurate editing in a series of disease-related gene transcripts In-depth research shows that Leaper has a wide range of applicability, and can accurately edit the vast majority of adenylate sites on RNA molecules In human lung fibroblasts, bronchial epithelial cells and T cells, the editing efficiency of Leaper is up to 80%, which shows the great application prospect of this technology in disease treatment The high efficiency and accuracy of this technology has also been fully verified in some application attempts For example, the researchers used this technology to successfully repair defective cells from patients with myxopolysaccharide disease type IH, providing a means for the successful repair of pathogenic mutations https://www.nature.com/articles/s41587-019-0178-z
