Objective:
To investigate the effects of physical activity (PA) intensity and sedentary behavior (SB) on calcanues bone mineral density (BMD) in preschool children, so as to provide a basis for rationalizing the daily physical activity of preschool children to promote bone health.
Methods:
A total of 673 pre school children aged 3-6 years from nine kindergartens in Pingxiang City, Ganzhou City and Yingtan City of Jiangxi Province, were selected from September to December 2021 by using the whole stratified cluster random sampling method. The PA levels and SB were measured by using a three axis acceleration sensor, and left calcanues BMD was measured by an ultrasound bone densitometer. Multiple linear regression was used to explore the effects of changes in PA on calcanues BMD in pre school children of all ages.
Results:
Of the 673 preschoolers surveyed, 498 (74.0%) achieved an average of ≥60 min of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) per day, there were 265 boys (71.2%), and 233 girls ( 77.4 %). The difference between genders was not statistically significant ( χ 2=2.77, P >0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the BMD test of the calcaneus bones of preschoolers by gender ( Z=0.42, P >0.05). The difference in BMD results of pre school children with 3, 4, 5 to 6 years was statistically significant ( H=2.65, P <0.05). Correlation analysis revealed a negative correlation between SB duration and calcaneus BMD ( r =-0.13), and a positive correlation between low intensity physical activity (LPA) duration, MVPA duration, and calcaneus BMD ( r =0.14, 0.25 ) ( P <0.05). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that SB duration negatively correlated with calcaneus BMD, whereas LPA and MVPA duration positively correlated with calcaneus BMD ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
MVPA duration is positively correlated with the growth of BMD in the heel bone and negatively correlated with SB. The kindergartens can adjust their curricula according to the physical and mental developmental characteristics, gender and age differences of pre school children, increase the time of outdoor activities, and reduce the sedentary time to promote the bone health of young children.
3.Cluster characteristics of physical activities among children inside and outside kindergartens and its relationship with athletic abilities
Chinese Journal of School Health 2023;44(10):1560-1563
Objective:
Based on physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) variables on weekdays and weekends, the study aims to cluster the physical activities inside and outside kindergartens and to explore the cluster characteristics of different children using physical fitness indicators, so as to provide new strategies and methods for early childhood education and health.
Methods:
From March to June 2019, 291 children aged 3-6 years from 6 kindergartens in Nanchang were recruited by a stratified cluster random sampling method. The ActiGraph GT3X-BT triaxial accelerometer was used to measure and analyze the PA and SB levels inside and outside the kindergarten. A twostep clustering algorithm model was employed for cluster analysis. Physical fitness were measured and evaluated according to the "National Physical Fitness Measurement Standard Manual (Preschool Section)". Differences in physical fitness among different clusters of children were compared, and the cluster characteristics of different children were analyzed.
Results:
The clustering algorithm model indicated that based on six indicators, including PA and SB inside the kindergarten on weekdays, and PA and SB outside the kindergarten on both weekdays and weekends, children could be divided into three categories:active inside (high PA, low SB inside), active outside (high PA outside), and inactive (low PA, high SB both inside and outside). The average silhouette coefficient of the model was 0.3, indicating good clustering results. Both the active inside and active outside children showed significantly higher PA inside on weekdays, PA outside on weekdays and weekends, daily low intensity physical activity (LPA) and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) than the inactive children ( F=157.91, 80.79 , 95.86, 95.52, 124.74, P <0.05). After adjusting for gender and age, the physical fitness scores of both active outside ( 19.03 ±0.47) and active inside (19.11±0.40) were significantly higher than those of the inactive children (17.94±0.31). Additionally, active inside children (3.91±0.14) also showed significantly better performance in continuous double-leg jumps, compared to inactive children (3.45±0.11) ( P <0.05).
Conclusion
Children active inside and those active outside perform well in PA. Future research should focus on the proportion of structured and unstructured PA time to enhance the overall physical fitness of children.

Objective:To investigate the predictors of clinically important stress-related gastrointestinal bleeding (CIS-GIB) after acute stroke and their impact on short-term outcome.Methods:Consecutive acute stroke patients diagnosed as stress ulcer (SU) and admitted to Beijing Friendship Hospital from January 1, 2016 to January 1, 2020 were enrolled retrospectively. The primary outcome event was CIS-GIB and was defined as dominant gastrointestinal bleeding and corresponding clinical manifestations occurred within 24 h after bleeding. The second outcome event was the short-term clinical outcome assessed by the modified Rankin Scale score at 14 d after onset, and ≤2 was defined as a good outcome. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the independent influencing factors of CIS-GIB and short-term outcome. Results:A total of 96 patients with post-stroke SU were included, accounting for 2.5% (96/3 819) of all patients with acute stroke; among them, 16 patients (16.7%) developed CIS-GIB, accounting for 0.4% (16/3 819) of all patients with acute stroke. Among the included patients, there were 27 women (29.2%), with a median age of 70 years (interquartile range, 62-79 years). The median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was 8 (interquartile range, 3-17), and a median time interval between SU and the index stroke event was 2 d (interquartile range, 1-5 days). Compared with the non-CIS-GIB group, the baseline NIHSS score and the proportion of patients with supratentorial stroke were higher, the time interval between SU and the index stroke event was longer, the proportion of patients with coagulation dysfunction, using nasogastric tube and ventilator, receiving gastrointestinal invasive hemostasis and erythrocyte component transfusion were higher, and the risks of poor outcome and death were higher in the CIS-GIB group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the baseline NIHSS score (odds ratio [ OR] 1.146, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.029-1.275; P=0.013), glycosylated hemoglobin ( OR 1.567, 95% CI 1.025-2.395; P=0.038), history of chronic gastric diseases ( OR 24.900, 95% CI 1.446-428.728; P=0.027), supratentorial stroke ( OR 5.701, 95% CI 1.002-32.443; P=0.050) and activated partial thromboplastin time ≥34.0 s ( OR 11.036, 95% CI 1.154-105.560; P=0.037) were the independent risk factors for CIS-GIB; the baseline NIHSS score was an independent influencing factor for poor outcome ( OR 1.366, 95% CI 1.029-1.812; P=0.031). Conclusion:The incidence of CIS-GIB in patients with acute stroke is about 0.4%, which significantly increases the risk of short-term adverse outcome. High glycosylated hemoglobin level, prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time, high baseline NIHSS score, supratentorial stroke and history of chronic gastric diseases are the independent risk factors for CIS-GIB.

Objective:To summarize the perioperative nursing points of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in elderly patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures assisted by robots, so as to provide reference for orthopedic nursing.Methods:From July 2019 to February 2021, the data of 72 patients undergoing robot-assisted PKP in the spinal surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The perioperative nursing points were summarized, and the nursing experience was summarized. The nursing under the new measures of precise minimally invasive treatment was analyzed and discussed. The length of hospital stay, postoperative ambulation time, complications and satisfaction survey results of patients were collected and recorded. The Numerical Rating Scale(NRS) score, Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS) score and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score before and after surgery were compared. The correlation analysis of the scores of various factors was combined to comprehensively evaluate the surgical and nursing effects.Results:All patients had no complications related to machine use during and after operation, and their symptoms were improved to varying degrees. Fifty-seven cases of indwelling catheter, catheter time (19.00±14.24) h. The preoperative hospitalization time was (6.16±2.22) d, and the postoperative hospitalization time was (1.94±0.99) d. Postoperative bed time was (16.34±6.81) h. Postoperative nursing satisfaction was (98.55±2.44)%.The postoperative NRS and SAS scores were (1.00±0.55) and (32.06±5.33) points, respectively, which were lower than those before operation (3.51 ± 0.71) and (39.08±8.86) points, and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 33.976, 8.184, P<0.01). There were statistically significant differences in six indicators of ODI scores before and after surgery, including low back pain, walking, standing, sitting, sleep and self-care ( P<0.01). Correlation analysis showed that there was a strong correlation between the six ODI score factors and the NRS score. The four factors of sitting, walking, low back pain and standing were highly correlated with SAS. Conclusions:The implementation of good perioperative nursing management for patients with PKP assisted by robot can effectively promote the rehabilitation of patients, reduce the incidence of complications and improve patient satisfaction.

The current document is based on a consensus reached by a panel of experts from the Chinese Society of Allergy and the Chinese Society of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Rhinology Group. Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) affects approximately 8% of Chinese adults. The inflammatory and remodeling mechanisms of CRS in the Chinese population differ from those observed in the populations of European descent. Recently, precision medicine has been used to treat inflammation by targeting key biomarkers that are involved in the process. However, there are no CRS guidelines or a consensus available from China that can be shared with the international academia. The guidelines presented in this paper cover the epidemiology, economic burden, genetics and epigenetics, mechanisms, phenotypes and endotypes, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, management, and the current status of CRS in China. These guidelines—with a focus on China—will improve the abilities of clinical and medical staff during the treatment of CRS. Additionally, they will help international agencies in improving the verification of CRS endotypes, mapping of eosinophilic shifts, the identification of suitable biomarkers for endotyping, and predicting responses to therapies. In conclusion, these guidelines will help select therapies, such as pharmacotherapy, surgical approaches and innovative biotherapeutics, which are tailored to each of the individual CRS endotypes.

7.Physical activity and influencing factors of preschool children in Nanchang
Chinese Journal of School Health 2020;41(2):197-200
Objective:
To understand the present situation of physical activity and its influencing factors, and to provide a reference for improving the level of physical activity and making the intervention measures.
Methods:
The method of random stratification was used to select 4 740 pre school children aged 3-6 from 17 kindergartens in 12 counties and districts of Nanchang City, The questionnaire of physical activities of young children and the questionnaire of parents of physical activities of young children were applied to conduct a survey.
Results:
Compared with weekday PA and MVPA, preschool children’s weekends decreased, SB increased. The differences in PA, MVPA and SB on weekdays and weekends were statistically significant( P <0.01). The proportion of PA and MVPA reaching the recommended amount during the working day of preschool children were 44.9%-59.2%, 45.4%- 61.7%.The proportion reaching the recommended amount of PA and MVPA on weekends were 24.7%-27.8%, 24.5%-29.9%, and the proportion reaching the recommended amount on weekdays was higher than that on weekends.
Conclusion
There is still gap between actual amount of physical activity and the recommended amount. There are different modes of activity on weekdays and weekends, and weekends are the least active periods. Parents and teachers should pay enough attention to the establishment of "social campus family" model to improve the lack of physical activity of preschool children.

Chinese Journal of Radiation Oncology 2019;28(10):758-761
Objective:
To evaluate the degree of psychological distress and analyze the influential factors of cancer patients receiving radiotherapy, aiming to provide theoretical basis for individualized psychological interventions.
Methods:
A cross-sectional survey of 157 cancer patients treated with radiotherapy in Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University in the previous year was conducted in terms of data collection and mean score of NCCN distress thermometer by using the convenience sampling method. Tumor types included nasopharyngeal cancer, breast cancer and cervical cancer, etc. The influential factors were analyzed by using logistic regression method.
Results:
The mean score of NCCN distress thermometer in 157 cancer patients was 4.07±0.19. Among them, 87 cases (55.41%) experienced significant psychological distress (NCCN distress thermometer score≥4). The main influential factors of psychological distress consisted of depression, loneliness, fear, appearance changes, urination changes, nausea, poor appetite, eating trouble, diarrhoea, constipation, pain and radiodermatitis. Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that nausea and urination changes were the independent influential factors of psychological distress.
Conclusions
Over half of cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy present with evident psychological distress. Somatic problems and emotional situations are the main factors of psychological pain. Consequently, it is highly necessary to emphasize the psychological health and actively resolve the somatic and emotional symptoms of cancer patients receiving radiotherapy.
