Objective:
To examine the retention rate and caries prevention effect of fit-and-fissure sealants after 3 years of children oral disease comprehensive intervention program in Henan province.
Methods:
For each of the five provincial regions attending the program in 2015, two classes from grade 2 in four primary schools were selected. Children in two schools were assigned into intervention group and the first permanent molars which were appriopriate for sealing were sealed with pit-and-fissure sealants. Children in other two schools were included in the control group and the first permanent molars were only examined for caries conditions. Three years later, retention rate of pit-and-fissure sealants and the dental caries prevalence was compared.
Results:
Complete retention rate of sealants in the first permanent molars was 65.55% and the whole retention rate was 94.78%. The caries incidence and mean value of the first permanent molars in the intervention group children was 9.71%, (0.12±0.40) respectively whereas those in control group was 21.90%, (0.39±0.78) respectively. The differences between two groups were statistically significant(χ2/t=27.76, 6.91, P<0.01). The relatively effective rate of sealing for caries reduction was 63.43% and the actural effective rate was 6.51% and the pure yield rate of sealing was 12.19%. Higher sealant retention rate was associated caries prevalence(χ2=153.28, P<0.01).
Conclusion
Childhood oral disease intervention project in Henan Province shows positive effects. Sealing of the first permanent molars effectively prevent dental pit and fissure caries.

Objective:
To understand the changes of students nutritional status in the National Nutrition Improvement Program for Rural Compulsory Education Students (NNIPRCES) of Henan Province, and to provide scientific basis for designating scientific nutritional intervention measures.
Methods:
About 20%-30% of primary schools and middle schools in the pilot counties in Henan Province were selected to monitor the nutritional status of students. Surveillance data from 2012 to 2019 were analyzed.
Results:
From 2012 to 2019(no surveillance data were available in 2018), the detection rates of mild thinness were 4.0%, 3.3%, 3.3%, 3.6%, 3.1%, 2.9%, 4.4%, respectively; the detection rates of moderate and severe thinness were 4.5%, 4.5%, 4.4%, 4.6%, 3.9%, 3.6%, 5.1%, respectively; the detection rates of overweight were 9.6%, 12.4%, 12.3%, 12.2%, 12.7%, 13.4%, 11.1%, respectively; and the detection rates of obesity were 3.9%, 6.8%, 6.7%, 6.2%, 7.6%, 7.2%, 5.8%, respectively. The differences were statistically significant (χ 2=1 032.29, 4 771.39, P<0.05). The detection rates of 2019 mild (5.0%, 3.7%) and moderate to severe thinness (5.9%, 4.3%) were the highest for both male and female students, and the highest for primary school students and junior middle school students were the highest for 2019 mild (4.1%, 6.0%) and moderate to severe thinness (5.1%, 4.9%), with statistical significance (χ 2=653.22, 486.46, 919.07, 306.27, P<0.05). The detection rate of overweight was the highest in both males and females (14.8%, 11.8%) in 2017, and the detection rate of obesity was the highest in 2016 (8.3%, 6.9%). The detection rates of overweight and obesity in primary school students were the highest in 2017 and 2016 (13.7%, 8.4%), and the detection rates in middle school students were the highest in 2017 (11.5%, 3.0%), with statistical significance (χ 2=2 391.65, 2 371.74, 4 827.75, 512.64, P<0.05).
Conclusion
In the early stage of the implementation of NNIPRCES in Henan Province, malnutrition among students has improved, however, the contem porary malnutrition shows increasing trend, and the co occurrence of malnutrition and obesity calls for targeted nutritional intervention measures.

The functional hemocompatibility between fibrinogen (FIG) and a novel vascular stent material (Ti-O film fixed with albumin and heparin) was investigated as follows: (1) Preparing the new biologic material (Ti-O) film; (2) Coating albumin and heparin on the Ti-O film; (3) Testing platelets (PL) adsorption; (4) Determining FIG adhesion number by use of enzyme linked immunoassay (ELISA); (5) Implanting the films from the test group of Ti-O film and from the comparison group of stainless steel (SS) film into the left and right femoral arteries respectively in 4 dogs. It was proved that albumin and heparin were fixed on Ti-O film. After 6 months, the femoral arteries of the dogs were resected. In the test group of Ti-O film coated with albumin and heparin, few PL adhered to the coat, their form did not change, and no thrombus was found by scanning electron microscopy; the result was better than that of plain Ti-O film, and was much better than that of SS film. Ti-O maintained normal transformation condition of FIG, and no C terminal of gamma chain in FIG was revealed. As it is known whether the hemocompatibility of a biomaterial is good depends upon its adsorption of FIG, and Ti-O has excellent reaction on albumin and heparin by chemical processes. In this study, the Ti-O film coated with albumin and heparin further reduced the absorption of FIG and PL when compared against the plain Ti-O film. So the Ti-O film coated with albumin and heparin has the insistent and permanent anticoagulant character.

Objective:
To explore periodontal health knowledge and behavior among adolescents aged 12-15 years in Henan Province so as to provide scientific basis for oral health care.
Methods:
According to the basic methods of the Fourth National Oral Health Survey, 3 786 school adolescents, aged 12-15 years, were selected from 12 middle schools in two district and two country in Henan by multi-stage stratified equal capacity random sampling. Oral examination and a questionnaire survey were performed among these students.
Results:
The rate of periodontal health was 6.08%, the prevalence of gingival bleeding in these adolescents was 93.92%, its calculus existence was 90.99%. The rate of brushing teeth was 77.79%. However, the rate of brushing teeth twice or more per day was 17.56%, the rate of using fluoride toothpaste was 4.57%. The rate of periodontal health of adolescents who brushing teeth, using fluoride toothpaste were higher than adolescents who did not brush teeth, did not use fluoride toothpaste (χ2=10.81, 5.96, P<0.05). The recognition of oral care knowledge was 62.31%; except for "bacteria can cause dental caries", the awareness rate of other related periodontal diseases is more than 50.00%.
Conclusion
The status of periodontal health among adolescents aged 12-15 in Henan Province was not optimistic. Adolescents are lake of knowledge and health behavior towards periodontal health, The promotion of adolescents’s oral health education should be strengthened.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2019;40(9):1376-1379
Objective:
To investigate the epidemiology and associated factors of deciduous dental caries in 3-5 years old children in Henan Province, and to provide a epidemiological reference for prevention work of deciduous dental caries among children.
Methods:
According to the basic methods of the Fourth National Oral Health Survey, 12 kindergartens were randomly selected from 2 counties and 2 districts in Henan Province and a total of 1 296 children aged 3-5 years old were randomly selected with stratified multi-stage random sampling method. The deciduous teeth of these children were examined for caries and their guardians were surveyed with questionnaires regarding oral health behavior, knowledge and attitude.
Results:
Deciduous dental caries occurred in 755 children, accounting for 58.3% and the average decay-missing-filled teeth (dmft) was 2.83. The differences of prevalence of dental caries of boys and girls (60.5%, 56.0%) and mean dmft index (2.88, 2.78) were of no statistical significance(χ2/F=2.64, 0.22, P>0.05). The prevalence of dental caries and mean dmft index for 3, 4 and 5-year-old group was 46.7%, 2.02 and 60.9%, 2.85 and 67.5%, 3.64, respectively. There was statistical significance among three age groups(χ2/F=40.00, 21.68, P<0.01). No significant difference was found in the dental caries prevalence and mean dmft index between urban (58.9%, 2.87) and rural area (57.7%, 2.79)(χ2/F=0.20, 0.16, P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression showed that age, feeding pattern within the first six months after birth, dental care experience and self-perceived oral health status associated with deciduous caries in 3-5 year-old children in Henan Province(P<0.05).
Conclusion
Dental caries prevalence is highly prevalent among preschool children in Henan Province. Effective caries precaution measures should be taken to improve oral health level of these children.

Objective To explore the standardized management mode of the Ethics Committee for organ donation after citizen’s death in hospitals. Methods The situations of ethical review before and after the standardized adjustment of the Ethics Committee of human organ donation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Baseline data of donors before and after standardized adjustment of the Ethics Committee of human organ donation were compared. The influence of standardized adjustment of the Ethics Committee on the attendance rate of committee members and duration of ethical review were analyzed. Results No significant differences were observed in donors' ethical review data, such as gender, age and death determination, before and after standardized adjustment of Ethics Committee structure (all P>0.05). Significant difference was noted regarding the cause of death in ethical review (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in the impact of Ethics Committee standardization adjustment and cause of death on the attendance rate of committee members (both P<0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that gender, cause of death and standardized adjustment of the Ethics Committee were the influencing factors of the attendance rate of committee members, and the attendance rate of committee members after standardized adjustment was higher than that before adjustment (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the effects of Ethics Committee standardized adjustment, attendance rate of committee members and cause of death on the duration of ethical review (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis indicated that standardized adjustment of the ethics committee was the influencing factor of the duration of ethical review, and the duration of ethics review after standardized adjustment was shorter than that before adjustment (P<0.05). Conclusions Appropriate arrangement of the total number of ethics committee members and standardizing the review process may improve the efficiency of ethical review. Scientific evaluation mechanism for ethical committee members should be established by dynamically adjusting the ethical committee members, clarifying the responsibilities and tasks of members and secretaries, aiming to further improve standardized management level of ethical review for organ donation after citizen’s death.
