Objective:
To explore the effects of community building environment and sports with fitness APP usage and their interactions on teachers exercise habits in the Yangtze River Delta Region, so as to provide a scientific basis for the development of a sports and health promotion intervention program for teachers.
Methods:
A total of 2 530 in service teachers from four provinces and cities in the Yangtze River Delta region, namely, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Anhui Province, were sampled in May-June 2023 by using convenient cluster random sampling method. Self designed questionnaire was used to collect the basic information of the surveyed teachers, Physical Activity Building Environment Evaluation Questionnaire and the Sports with Fitness APP Usage Questionnaire were used to measure the teachers subjective perception of the community building environment and the usage of sports with fitness APP, respectively. Physical Exercise Habituation Scale was used to assess the level of exercise habits. Logistic regression models were applied to analyze the effects of community building environment and sports with fitness APP usage on physical exercise, and the interaction effects were analyzed by using additive and multiplicative models.
Results:
Among all the teachers surveyed, 658 of them reported good physical exercise habits (26.0%), and differences in the rate of physical activity habit formation by gender, age, years of teaching, as well as subject of teaching were statistically significant ( χ 2=42.94, 39.73, 35.47, 218.23 , P <0.05). Teachers with physical exercise habits had significantly higher community building environment scores and sports and fitness APP use than teachers without exercise habits ( t =12.17,16.54, P <0.05). Adjusting for the confounders of age, gender, years of teaching experience, and subjects taught, multifactorial unconditional Logistic regression analysis showed that the probability of teachers having good physical exercise habits increased by 22% for every 1-point increase in the community building environment score on average ( OR =1.22, 95% CI =1.11-1.40), and the probability of teachers having good physical exercise habits increased by 16% for every 1-point increase in the sports with fitness APP score on average ( OR = 1.16 , 95% CI =1.03-1.31) ( P <0.05). Interaction analyses showed that there was an additive interaction between the effects of community building environment and sports and fitness APP use on teachers physical exercise habits after adjustment, and the 95% CI for RERI , API and SI were 1.17 -1.65, 0.12-0.46 and 1.78-3.33 ( P <0.05), respectively, and there was no multiplicative interaction ( P >0.05).
Conclusions
The community building environment and the usage of sports & fitness APP show impacts in the formation of teachers physical exercise habits in the Yangtze River Delta region, and there is an interaction effect. Enhancing the construction of smart sports centers around the community can provide a high quality external environment for the physical exercise habits formation.

Objective:
To investigate the causal relationship between junior high school students aggressive behavior, physical exercise and academic performance, so as to provide a reference basis for the development of scientific exercise programs.
Methods:
A longitudinal followup study was conducted on 502 junior high school students over a 12month period from June 2021 to June 2022 using the Buss-Perry Aggressive Questionnaire (BPAQ), Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents (PAQ-A), and test scores as the measurement tools (T1:June 2021, T2:December 2021, T3:June 2022), and a crosslagged model was constructed to measure the relationship between aggression, physical activity and academic performance.
Results:
At T1, physical exercise had a positive effect on academic performance at T2 (β=0.22) and a negative effect on aggressive behavior at T2 (β=-0.13), aggressive behavior negatively affected academic performance at T2 (β=-0.23), and academic performance had a negative effect on aggressive behavior at T2 (β=-0.09). Physical exercise at T2 had a negative effect on aggressive behavior at T3 (β=-0.05) and a positive effect on academic performance at T3 (β=0.19). Aggressive behavior at T2 negatively influenced academic performance at T3 (β=-0.08). Academic performance at T2 negatively influenced aggressive behavior at T3 (β=-0.06) (P<0.05). The results of crosslagged modeling of junior high school students aggressive behavior, physical exercise and academic performance showed that the model was well fitted (χ2/df=8.80, CFI=0.96, NFI=0.95, RFI=0.87, IFI=0.96, TLI=0.88, RMSEA=0.12). The results of multigroup structural equation modeling showed that the differences between the models and the baseline model (CFI=0.95, TLI=0.86, RMSEA=0.10, 90%CI=0.08-0.11, P<0.01) were not statistically significant in terms of gender (△CFI<0.05, P>0.05).
Conclusions
Physical exercise negatively predictes aggressive behavior and positively predictes academic performance, and academic performance and aggressive behavior negatively affect each other. A scientific exercise program should be developed to reduce aggression and effectively improve adolescents academic performance.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, diagnosis, differential diagnosis and prognostic factors of SMARCB1 (INI1)-deficient sinonasal carcinoma (SDSC).Methods:Sixteen cases of SDSC diagnosed in the Department of Pathology, Beijing Tongren Hospital from January 2016 to September 2020 were enrolled. Ninety-nine cases of small round cell malignant tumors of the head and neck were selected as the control, including poorly-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma ( n=10), poorly-differentiated adenocarcinoma ( n=5), undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC, n=4), NUT carcinoma ( n=5), neuroendocrine carcinoma ( n=10), and other non-epithelial tumors [olfactory neuroblastoma ( n=10), rhabdomyosarcoma ( n=10), NK/T-cell lymphoma ( n=10), malignant melanoma ( n=10), Ewing′s sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (EWS/PNET, n=5)] and non-keratinizing undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma ( n=20). The clinical and pathologic characteristics of SDSC, and immunohistochemical (IHC) expression of broad-spectrum CKpan, CK7, CK8/18, CK5/6, p63, p40, p16, INI1, NUT and neuroendocrine markers (Syn, CgA, CD56) were evaluated. In situ hybridization (ISH) was used to detect EBER and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to detect INI1 gene deletion. Results:The 16 cases of SDSC accounted for 1.3% (16/1 218) of all malignant sinonasal tumors in the author′s unit during this time period, and 2.4% (16/657) of all malignant epithelial tumors. Microscopically, there was no clear squamous and adenomatous differentiation, but "rhabdoid-like" cells, are often seen. All SDSC cases were positive for CKpan and CK8/18, negative for INI1; Epstein-Barr virus was not detected by ISH; and INI1 gene deletion was observed in all 11 SDSC patients with FISH. Twelve cases were followed up for 3-47 months. One died of tumor-related diseases half a year after diagnosis, and the remaining patients were alive with tumor, the longest survival time was 47 months.Conclusion:SDSC should be differentiated from a variety of poorly-differentiated tumors in the sinonasal area. Histologically, SDSC has no clear differentiation, but the tumor cells are characteristically basal-like or rhabdoid-like, with non-specific vacuoles, translucent or vacuolar nuclei, prominent nucleoli and necrotic foci. They are negative for INI1 IHC staining, and FISH demonstrates INI1 gene deletion. The clinical prognosis is still unclear, further studies on its biologic behavior and treatment methods are warranted.

Objective:To compare the consistency of lymphoma multigene detection panels based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) with FISH detection of B-cell lymphoma gene rearrangement.Methods:From January 2019 to May 2023, fusion genes detected by lymphoma-related 413 genes that targeted capture sequencing of 489 B-cell lymphoma tissues embedded in paraffin were collected from Henan Cancer Hospital, and the results were compared with simultaneous FISH detection of four break/fusion genes: BCL2, BCL6, MYC, and CCND1. Consistency was defined as both methods yielding positive or negative results for the same sample. The relationship between fusion mutation abundance in NGS and the positivity rate of cells in FISH was also analyzed.Results:Kappa consistency analysis revealed high consistency between NGS and FISH in detecting the four B-cell lymphoma-related gene rearrangement ( P<0.001 for all) ; however, the detection rates of positive individuals differed for the four genes. Compared with FISH, NGS demonstrated a higher detection rate for BCL2 rearrangement, a lower detection rate for BCL6 and MYC rearrangement, and a similar detection rate for CCND1 rearrangement. No correlation was found between fusion mutation abundance in NGS and the positivity rate of cells in FISH. Conclusions:NGS and FISH detection of B-cell lymphoma gene rearrangement demonstrate overall good consistency. NGS is superior to FISH in detecting BCL2 rearrangement, inferior in detecting MYC rearrangement, and comparable in detecting CCND1 rearrangement.
