Objective:To analyze the relationship between the clinical medical college students' time investment (including study, activities, entertainment and exercise) and general self-efficacy (GSE) in a medical university in Liaoning province, China.Methods:The first-year medical students were asked to participate the survey. Their GSE was measured by using general self-efficacy scale (GSES) in 2018. One year later, the independent variable table was used to investigate the extracurricular activity time, and 683 valid questionnaires were collected. Ordered logistic regression method was used to analyze the correlation between students' extracurricular activities and GSE.Results:Medical students' GSE was positively associated with their time in extracurricular study ( OR = 1.94, 95%CI = 1.49-2.54), volunteer activities ( OR=1.36, 95%CI = 1.01-1.83), and physical activities ( OR = 1.37, 95%CI = 1.01-1.85). However, there was no significant correlation with the time in activities organized by students ( OR = 1.09, 95%CI = 0.79-1.50) or activities organized by school ( OR = 1.15, 95%CI = 0.84-1.59). Furthermore, compared with clinical students of "5+3" year program, the 5-year program clinical students had a stronger correlation between medical students' GSE and the input of extracurricular study time. Conclusion:There is a positive correlation between medical students' GSE and their extracurricular time investment, which indicates that increasing medical students' GSE could be an effective method to improve their extracurricular time investment and eventually improve their comprehensive quality.

Abstract
Overweight and obesity among children is not only harmful to physical and mental health, but also associated with an increased risk of chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes in adulthood. Health related behavioral factors are one of the most important causes of child overweight and obesity, which commonly co occur and show a synergistic negative influence on health. The synergistic effects suggest that interventions are likely to be more cost effective and to maximize impact by targeting health risk behaviors in combination with the improvement of a variety of modificable behaviors. The present review aims to describe the update of co occurrence and clustering patterns of obesity related health risk behaviors, and proposes the future direction for prevention and control of overweight and obesity in children.

Objective:To explore the expression of family with sequence similarity 83 member A (FAM83A) in colorectal cancer, and the effect of FAM83A knockdown on the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells and the related mechanism.Methods:The expression of FAM83A in the tissues of 102 patients with colorectal cancer and its adjacent tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry. HCT116 cells were divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group cells were transfected with FAM83A-siRNA plasmid, and the control group cells were transfected with MOCK-siRNA plasmid. The mRNA content of FAM83A in each group was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR. The expressions of FAM83A, P13K, p-AKT and p-mTOR in each group were detected by Western blot. CCK8 assay and clonogenesis assay were used to detect cell proliferation.Results:The positive rate of FAM83A in colorectal cancer patients was 88.23% (90 cases /102 cases), and the expression rate of FAM83A in paracancer tissues was 10.78% (11 cases /102 cases). The expression rate of Fam83a in colorectal cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in paracancer tissues, with statistical significance ( P<0.001). After siRNA transfection, the mRNA expression levels of FAM83A in HCT116 cells of the experimental group and control group were 1.23±0.20 and 0.43±0.12, respectively, and the protein expression levels of FAM83A were 1.19±0.11 and 0.23±0.08, respectively. The expression levels of P13K were 1.21±0.17 and 0.28±0.09, the expression levels of p-AKT were 1.35±0.23 and 0.57±0.18, and the expression levels of p-mTOR were 1.48±0.20 and 1.05±0.14. The expression of P13K, p-Akt and p-mTOR was down-regulated (all P<0.05). The absorbance of HCT116 cells in the experimental group and the control group was 1.09±0.22 and 2.21±0.27, respectively. The cloning rate of HCT116 cells in the experimental group and the control group was 21.6%±2.4% and 62.7%±4.1%, respectively. The proliferation ability of HCT116 cells in the experimental group decreased significantly ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The expression of FAM83A is significantly increased in colorectal cancer tissues, which may be related to the malignant degree of colorectal cancer. FAM83A affects the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells through the P13K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore and compare the effect of clinical characters on quality of life (QOL) of laryngeal carcinoma postoperative patients.
METHOD:
We performed a retrospective cohort follow up study of 303 patients who underwent operation for laryngeal carcinoma. The Chinese version of the general and the head and neck specific quality of life questionnaires of the European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-H&H35) were used to measure the quality of life of those patients in the cohort, to study the relationship between QOL and clinical factors.
RESULT:
In the 303 cases, there were 78 cases retaining the permanent tracheostomies (59 total laryngectomy and 19 partial laryngectomy); 4 patient retain the nasal feed pipe. Female patients were worse than male patients in the domain of physical function and global QOL (P<0.05). Older patients were worse than younger patients in the domain of physical function and speech (P<0.05). Patients with glottic tumors experience better global QOL than their peers with under glottic or supraglottic tumors. The patients with supraglottic tumor have more problem with swallowings (P<0.05). Earlier stage patients have better suitation in many domains than later stage patients, but III stage have more difficulty with swallowing than IV stage. Patients who accepted minimally invasive operation and laryngofissure have better QOL than those accepted partial laryngectomy or total laryngectomy; total laryngectomee have more problems with physical, emotion function, global QOL, sense, speech, cough and morbid feeling than patients with partial laryngectomy, but less problem with fatigue, pain, dyspnea, swollowing and dry mouth; Patients with partial horizontal laryngectomy have more difficulty with swallowing. In the multivariable analysis, the operation mode was an independent factor to speech problem. Patients who accepted neck dissction have more negative outcomes than patients without neck dissection. In the univariable analysis, the permanent tracheostomy was a notable factor which affected many domains in the quality of life; multivariable analysis showed that permanent tracheostomy was an important factor which worked on global quality of life.
CONCLUSION
The quality of life was affected by many clinical factors. The operation mode was an independent factor which affect speech problem. Decannulation after partial laryngectomy was very important to keep the quality of life.

Objective To analyze the relationship between general gelf-efficacy and life-long learn-ing orientation in medical students of a university for providing scientific evidence for the improvement of their life-long learning orientation. Methods In March 2015, all the fifth grade medical students, altogether 822, were invited to participate in the survey and 748 questionnaires were collected effectively. The instru-ments employed were General Self-efficacy Scale (GSES) and Jefferson Scale of Physician Life-Long Learning Student Version in Chinese (JSPLL-S). The relationship was analyzed by using multiple linear regression. Results The general self-efficacy and life-long learning orientation in medical students had significantly positive correlation (β=0.53,P=0.00). Furthermore the general self-efficacy was significantly correlated with each sub-domain of life-long learning orientation, specifically attention to learning opportunity (β=0.53,P=0.00), technical skills in information seeking (β=0.47,P=0.00) and learning beliefs and motivation (β=0.31, P=0.00) respectively. The results also indicated that the magnitude and significance of these corre-lations were independent from the individual characteristics. Conclusion Medical students' general self-efficacy greatly affects their life-long learning orientation. Thus, the strategy aiming at improving students' general self-efficacy could be affective for the development of life-long learning orientation.
