Objective:
To evaluate the intervention effectiveness of co-occurrence and prevention for myopia and obesity among primary and secondary school students, so as to provide a scientific basis for the development of comprehensive intervention measures in myopia and obesity.
Methods:
From September 2022 to September 2023, a cluster random sampling method was used to select 6 primary schools and 6 junior high schools from Tongzhou District, Beijing. Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention group (914 before intervention and 754 after intervention) and a control group (868 before intervention and 652 after intervention), with an expected duration of one academic year. Based on the RE-AIM framework, integrate resources from families, schools, communities, and medical institutions to develop a school-based intervention technology packagefor the co-occurrence and prevention of myopia and obesity in children. The intervention group received intervention according to the comprehensive intervention technology package, while the control group did not receive any intervention measures. Relevant health indicators during the baseline period and after intervention were measured and collected, and groups were compared by Chi quest test, t-test and Wilcoxon rank sum test.
Results:
After intervention, the uncorrected visual acuity of primary and secondary school students in the intervention group (4.79±0.30) and the control group (4.77±0.33) both decreased compared to those before intervention (4.80±0.30, 4.90±0.32) ( t =-7.00,-5.24); the decrease in uncorrected visual acuity in the intervention group was smaller than that in the control group( t =5.33)( P <0.01). After intervention, body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference, and body fat percentage of primary and secondary school students in the intervention group decreased compared to those before intervention. However, the changes in these indicators were not statistically significant ( t/Z =-0.03, - 0.36,- 0.30,- 0.01, P >0.05); the above indicators in the control group increased compared to those before intervention, but only hip circumference and body fat percentage showed statistically significant changes ( t/Z =2.17, 2.62, P <0.05). After intervention, both the intervention group and the control group showed increases in systolic and diastolic blood pressure compared to those before intervention(intervention group: t =2.16,5.29; control group: t =6.84,5.07); the intervention group had lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure than the control group( t = -5.27 , -2.08)( P <0.05). After intervention, the intervention and the control groups had statistically significant differences in cognitive accuracy(92.48%, 69.33%) in terms of "outdoor exercise can prevent myopia" and "having 5 servings of adult fist sized vegetables and fruits every day" ( χ 2=6.30, 7.86, P <0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in the proportion of primary and secondary school students in the intervention group (40.98%) and the control group (35.43%) for "who did not drink sugary drinks for every day in the past 7 days" ( χ 2=4.32, P <0.05). After intervention, the intervention group and the control group showed increases in "school outdoor activity duration on school days" and "outdoor activity duration on rest days" compared to those before intervention ( t/Z =-13.32,-9.71;- 2.59,-2.69);the behavior rate of "visual acuity measurement frequency at least once every 3 months" in the intervention group (46.68%) and the control group (52.76%) increased compared to those before intervention (36.43%, 44.01%), and the increases in the intervention group were greater than that in the control group ( χ 2=17.52,11.08) ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
Comprehensive intervention measures have significant intervention effects on controlling the occurrence and development of comorbidity of myopia and obesity in children. It could actively promote collaboration and cooperation among families, schools, communities and medical institutions to reduce the occurrence of myopia and obesity among primary and secondary school students.

Objective To evaluate the reporting quality and influencing factors of patient-reported outcome (PRO) data in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of lung cancer. Methods RCTs of lung cancer with PRO as either primary or secondary endpoints were searched from PubMed, EMbase, Medline, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP databases between January 1, 2010 and April 20, 2024. Reporting quality of included RCTs were assessed based on the CONSORT-PRO extension. Descriptive statistics and bivariate regression analysis were used to describe the reporting quality and analyze the factors influencing the reporting quality. Results A total of 740 articles were retrieved. After screening, 53 eligible RCTs of lung cancer with 22 780 patients were included. The patients were mainly with non-small cell lung cancer (84.91%), with the median sample size of the included studies was 364.0 (160.5, 599.5) patients. The primary PRO tool used was the EORTC QLQ-C30 (60.38%). There were 52 (98.11%) studies whose PRO measured the domain of "symptom management of cough, dyspnea, fatigue, pain, etc.", and 45 (84.91%) studies measured "health-related quality of life". Multicenter studies accounted for 84.91%, and randomized non-blind trials accounted for 62.26%. PRO was used as the primary endpoint in 33.96% of the studies and as secondary endpoints in 66.04%. The reliability and validity of the PRO tools were explicitly mentioned in 11.32% and 7.55% of the studies, respectively. The average completeness of reporting according to the CONSORT-PRO guidelines was 60.00%, ranging from 25.00% to 93.00%. The main factors affecting the completeness of CONSORT-PRO reporting included sample size and publication year. For every increment in sample size, the completeness of reporting increased by 27.5% (SE=0.00, t=2.040, P=0.046). Additionally, studies published after 2018 had a 67.2% higher completeness of reporting compared to those published in or before 2018 (SE=17.8, t=–3.273, P=0.006). Conclusion The study reveals that the overall reporting quality of PRO in lung cancer RCTs is poor. Particularly, the reporting of PRO measures reliability and validity, PRO assumptions, applicability, and handling of missing data need further improvement. Future research should emphasize comprehensive adherence to the CONSORT-PRO guidelines.

Aromatic Chinese medicinal essential oils are volatile oils extracted from aromatic Chinese herbs, which can prevent and treat respiratory infectious diseases through multiple synergistic mechanisms including pathogen inhibition, immune regulation, and inflammatory response regulation. Essential oils are primarily used externally on the body to prevent infections and alleviate symptoms through methods like inhalation, smearing, topical application, bathing, gargling or as a suppository. They can also be utilized in the environment for disinfection and air purification, through methods like diffusion, vaporization, or spraying. The external application of essential oils extracted from Chinese aromatic herbs has the advantages of convenience, quick absorption, and simultaneous influence on both the body and mind. However, there are still challenges and deficiencies in aspects such as the positioning of functions, indications, safety, and the research on the mechanism of action. It has been proposed to combine the theory of aromatic Chinese medicinals with the characteristics of essential oils, and formulate prescriptions of Chinese medicinal essential oils under the principles of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation, and prevent and treat respiratory infectious diseases efficiently, accurately, and safely, thereby expanding the clinical application of aromatic Chinese medicinals and the preventive theory of traditional Chinese medicine.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(1):73-77
Objective:
To explore the impact of sleep quality, experience of childhood maltreatment, and their interaction on depressive symptoms among middle school students, so as to provide the reference for early intervention of depressive symptoms among middle school students.
Methods:
From September to December 2023, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 231 students from two secondary schools in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province by a convenient sampling method. The survey included general demographic information, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire Short Form, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Short Version of Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale. The Chi square test was used to analyze the differences in depressive symptom, sleep quality and childhood maltreatment among students with different demographic characteristics. Correlation analysis was conducted using Logistic regression, and interaction analysis was performed by both additive and multiplicative interaction models.
Results:
The detection rate of depressive symptoms among middle school students was 22.7%, and the rate for high school students (35.2%) was significantly higher than that for middle school students (17.0%) ( χ 2=50.35, P <0.01). The detection rates of depressive symptoms among middle school students with a history of childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality were 45.8% and 44.0%, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that compared to students without a history of childhood maltreatment, students with a history of childhood maltreatment had a higher risk of depressive symptoms ( OR =4.49,95% CI =3.31~ 6.09 , P <0.01);students with poor sleep quality had a higher risk of depressive symptoms than students with good sleep quality ( OR = 5.99,95% CI =4.37~8.22, P <0.01).The interaction results showed that the presence of childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality had an additive interaction on the occurrence of depression in middle school students. Compared with students without childhood maltreatment and having good sleep quality, students with childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality had a 22.49 times higher risk of developing depression ( OR =22.49,95% CI =14.22~35.59, P <0.01).
Conclusion
Depressive symptoms among middle school students are associated with childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality, and there is an additive interaction between childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality on the impact of depressive symptoms.

ObjectiveTo establish a risk recognition model for coronary artery stenosis by using a machine learning method and to identify the key causative factors. MethodsPatients aged ≥18 years,diagnosed with coronary heart disease through coronary angiography from January 2013 to May 2020 in two prominent hospitals in Shanxi Province, were continuously enrolled. Logistic regression,back propagation neural network (BPNN), and random forest(RF)algorithms were used to construct models for detecting the causative factors of coronary artery stenosis. Sensitivity (TPR), specificity (TNR), accuracy (ACC), positive predictive value (PV+), negative predictive value (PV-), area under subject operating characteristic curve (AUC), and calibration curve were used to compare the discrimination and calibration performance of the models. The best model was then employed to predict the main risk variables associated with coronary stenosis. ResultsThe RF model exhibited superior comprehensive performance compared to logistic regression and BPNN models. The TPR values for logistic regression,BPNN,and RF models were 75.76%, 74.30%, and 93.70%, while ACC values were 74.05%, 72.30%, and 79.49%, respectively. The AUC values were:logistic regression 0.739 9; BPNN 0.723 1; RF 0.752 2. Manifestations such as chest pains,abnormal ST segments on ECG,ventricular premature beats with hypertension, atrial fibrillation, regional wall motion abnormalities(RWMA) by color echocardiography, aortic regurgitation(AR), pulmonary insufficiency (PI), family history of cardiovascular diseases,and body mass index(BMI)were identified as top ten important variables affecting coronary stenosis according to the RF model. ConclusionsRandom forest model shows the best comprehensive performance in identification and accurate assessment of coronary artery stenosis. The prediction of risk factors affecting coronary artery stenosis can provide a scientific basis for clinical intervention and help to formulate further diagnosis and treatment strategies so as to delay the disease progression.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence rate of chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and the association with quality of life in middle-aged and elderly patients with HIV/AIDS. MethodsThis cross-sectional study surveyed 432 patients with HIV/AIDS (aged≥45 years) in the Infectious Disease Center in Guangzhou Eighth People’s Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, and 366 participants were included in the analysis after quality control. A questionnaire and the EuroQol 5-Dimensional 3-level version (EQ-5D-3L) were used to investigate NCDs and quality of life and Tobit regression model was used to estimate the association between chronic diseases and quality of life. ResultsAmong the 366 participants, 29(7.9%) had cardiovascular disease, 45(12.3%) had hypertension, 122(33.3%) had hyperglycemia, 151(41.3%)had hyperlipidemia,7(1.9%) had cancer, 17 (4.6%) had chronic kidney disease, 38 (10.4%) had chronic liver disease, 21(5.7%) had musculoskeletal disorders, and 253(69.1%) suffered from at least one type of chronic diseases. The median (lower and upper quartiles) of EQ-5D utility index was 1.000(0.964~1.000). Multivariate Tobit regression results of the total population showed that cancer [ba=-0.08,95%CI (-0.15,-0.01),P=0.036], chronic kidney disease [ba=-0.07, 95%CI (-0.12,-0.02),P=0.006], musculoskeletal disease [ba=-0.09, 95%CI (-0.13, -0.05),P<0.001], and ≥3 types of chronic diseases[ba=-0.05, 95%CI(-0.08,-0.01),P=0.013] were negatively correlated with EQ-5D utility index. The stratified analysis results of different CD4+T cell levels showed that hypertension [ba=-0.07, 95%CI (-0.12, -0.02), P=0.007], chronic kidney disease [ba=-0.10,95%CI (-0.18,-0.03), P=0.006], musculoskeletal disease [ba=-0.15, 95%CI (-0.22,-0.07), P<0.001] and ≥3 types of chronic diseases [ba=-0.09, 95%CI (-0.09, -0.01), P<0.001] were negatively correlated with EQ-5D utility index in the group with CD4≤500 (cells/μL), whereas cancer[ba=-0.11, 95%CI (-0.20,-0.01), P=0.031] was negatively correlated with EQ-5D utility index in the group with CD4>500(cells/μL). ConclusionsThe prevalence rate of chronic non-communicable diseases in middle-aged and elderly patients with HIV/AIDS is relatively high. The classification of NCDs such as cancer or chronic kidney disease or other chronic diseases and the numbers of NCDs categories are negatively correlated with quality of life. However,this association varies among patients with HIV/AIDS of different CD4+T cell levels. It is suggested that we should try to prevent and identify NCDs at an early stage, strengthen linkages and integration of health services for AIDS and chronic NCDs, and jointly manage and control AIDS with chronic diseases to improve the quality of life among people living with HIV/AIDS.

AIM: To investigate the application of optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)in observing the relationship between corneal topographic changes and retinal vessel density and thickness in myopic adolescents after wearing orthokeratology lenses.METHODS:Myopic adolescents who treated and wore orthokeratology lenses in our hospital between January and December 2023 were selected for the study, and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Totally 50 cases(50 eyes)of toric orthokeratology lenses(toric group)and 50 cases(50 eyes)of spherical orthokeratology lenses(spherical group)were selected. Changes in corneal topographic indices, retinal vascular density and retinal thickness were examined in the two groups before and at 3 and 6 mo after wear. The relationship between corneal topographic indexes and retinal vessel density and thickness was analyzed.RESULTS: Compared with the pre-wear, average value of ks and kf(Avek)was significantly lower(all P<0.05), and surface regularity index(SRI)and surface asymmetry index(SAI)were significantly increased(both P<0.05)in the two groups at 3 and 6 mo post-wear. Compared with the pre-wearing period, deep retinal vessel density in whole macular area and superficial retinal vessel density in paracentral retina of macula were significantly higher in the two groups at 3 and 6 mo after wearing(both P<0.05), and the superficial retinal vessel density in macular fovea and paracentral fovea of macula of the toric group was significantly higher(all P<0.05), and the superficial retinal vessel density in paracentral macular fovea of the spherical group was significantly increased(all P<0.05). Compared with the pre-wearing period, the thickness of retina in whole macula and paracentral retina of the macula was significantly increased in the both groups at 3 and 6 mo post-wearing(all P<0.05). After wearing lenses for 3 mo, the Avek of the toric group was negatively correlated with the deep vascular density in whole macular area and paracentral macular fovea, the superficial vascular density in macular fovea and paracentral macular fovea, and the thickness of whole macular and paracentral macular fovea(all P<0.05). The SRI and SAI were positively correlated with the superficial retinal vascular density in macular fovea and paracentral macular fovea, and the retinal thickness in whole macular area and paracentral macular fovea(all P<0.05). The spherical group showed a negative correlation between Avek and the deep retinal vessel density in whole macular area and paracentral macular fovea, as well as the superficial retinal vessel density in paracentral macular fovea after wearing lenses for 3 mo(all P<0.05). SRI and SAI were positively correlated with the deep retinal vessel density in whole macular area, macular fovea and paracentral macular fovea, and the superficial retinal vessel density in paracentral macular fovea(all P<0.05). SRI was positively correlated with the retinal thickness in whole macular area(P<0.05), and SAI was positively correlated with the retinal thickness in paracentral macular fovea(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: After wearing toric and spherical corneal orthokeratology lenses, the corneal topography of myopic adolescents changes, and the retinal blood flow density and retinal thickness increase significantly, improving retinal blood circulation. Moreover, there is a significant correlation between changes in corneal topography and retinal blood flow density and retinal thickness, which has certain guiding significance for the control of myopia.

Journal of Preventive Medicine 2025;37(3):256-261
Abstract
Postoperative urinary retention is a common complication after mixed hemorrhoid surgery, referring to the inability of urine in the bladder to be normally expelled, leading to urine retention. This condition not only prolongs the postoperative recovery time and increases medical costs, but may also cause problems such as urinary tract infections and bladder dysfunction. The pathogenesis of urinary retention after mixed hemorrhoid surgery is complex, involving multiple factors such as the type of surgery, anesthesia method, individual differences among patients, postoperative pain management and psychological stress. Although there are various clinical treatment methods, their efficacy varies among individuals. This article reviews relevant literature from 2018 to 2024, analyzing the etiology of urinary retention after mixed hemorrhoid surgery. It summarizes the intervention measures and mechanisms of non-pharmacological treatments, such as physical therapy and analgesic techniques, as well as pharmacological treatments, including anticholinesterase drugs, selective α-receptor blockers and analgesics drugs, so as to provide the reference for the prevention and treatment of urinary retention after mixed hemorrhoid surgery.
