Objective :
To understand the prevalence of overweight and obesity, and the influencing factors among students aged 7-22 years in Zhejiang Province.
Methods :
Stratified random cluster sampling was used to randomly select students aged 7-22 years in 11 prefectures of Zhejiang Province in 2019. Height and weight were measured. The general information, dietary habits and living habits of students were collected using the Student Health Status and Influencing Factors Questionnaire. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of overweight and obesity.
Results :
A total of 33 800 respondents were included, 7 685 (22.74%) were overweight/obese, 4 729 ( 13.99% ) were overweight, and 2 956 ( 8.75% ) were obese. The multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that boys ( OR=2.059, 95%CI:1.949-2.175), not living on campus( OR=1.306, 95%CI: 1.214-1.405), history of alcohol consumption ( OR=1.158, 95%CI:1.083-1.238 ), average daily consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages in the past week ( less than once, OR=1.214, 95%CI: 1.103-1.336; once and more, OR=1.431, 95%CI: 1.259-1.626 ), average daily consumption of fries in the past week ( less than once, OR=1.171, 95%CI: 1.065-1.288; once and more, OR=1.266, 95%CI: 1.102-1.454 ), and average daily consumption of sweets in the past week (less than once, OR=0.727, 95%CI: 0.658-0.802; once and more, OR=0.504, 95%CI: 0.444-0.572) were associated with overweight and obesity in students.
Conclusion
The prevalence rates of overweight and obesity among students aged 7-22 years in Zhejiang Province are 13.99% and 8.75%, respectively, which are associated with boys, not living on campus, and consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages, fries, sweets and alcohol.

Objective: To identify Euryales Semen and its closely related species using the ITS2 barcode. Method:The total genomic DNAs were extracted from twenty samples of Euryales Semen and its closely related species. The ITS2 regions of the samples were amplified and bidirectional sequenced. Obtained sequences were submitted to the GenBank with Sequin 12.3. ITS2 sequences of 102 samples belonging to thirty species were downloaded from GenBank. The 122 ITS2 sequences were aligned and the genetic distances were analyzed with MEGA 5.1. Identification analyses were performed using BLAST1 and nearest distance methods, and were presented intuitively by constructing neighbor-joining (NJ) tree. Result: The length of ITS2 region of Euryales Semen was 214 bp, which was only one haplotype. There was significant divergence of the ITS2 regions among the samples. The NJ tree showed that Euryales Semen could be obviously differed from its closely related species, which had good 408 monophyly. Conclusion: ITS2 regions as a DNA barcode can stably and accurately distinguish Euryales Semen from its closely related species and also provide a new technique to ensure clinical safety in utilization of tradi-tional Chinese medicines. The new exploration could broaden the application of DNA barcoding technology in identification of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Objective:To study the signal enhancement of lung adenocarcinoma nude mice after injection of immunomagnetic bead solution (magnetic beads conjugated with monoclonal antibody NJ001) in micro-CT scan. Methods:The models of lung adenocarcino-ma nude mice were established by injecting SPC-A1-luc cells through the tail vein and were validated by bioluminescence imaging (BLI). The nude mice were divided into three groups: physiological saline group, bare magnetic bead group, and immunomagnetic bead group. Three groups of nude mice were injected with physiological saline, 750 nm bare magnetic bead solution, and immuno-magnetic bead solution via the tail vein every week, and micro-CT scan was taken before and 4 h after injection. Immunohistochemis-try (IHC) was used to detect the expression of antigen SP70 in tumor tissues. Results:The tumor was detected in the immunomagnetic bead group at the fourth week, whereas in the physiological saline and bare magnetic bead groups, the tumor was undetectable until the sixth week. The tumor intensities detected at the sixth week by micro-CT scan in the physiological saline, bare magnetic bead, and immunomagnetic bead groups were 59.05 ± 0.66, 60.69 ± 0.55, and 58.25 ± 0.32 before injection and 60.30 ± 1.83, 61.05 ± 0.68, and 67.41±3.82 after injection, respectively. Compared with the tumor intensities before injection, they significantly increased after injec-tion in the immunomagnetic bead group;the difference was statistically significant (P=0.0079). By contrast, no statistical significance was observed in the tumor intensities before and after injection in the physiological saline and bare magnetic bead groups (P=0.1867 and P=0.3839, respectively). Conclusion:The immunomagnetic beads had enhanced effect on micro-CT scan of lung adenocarcinoma nude mouse models.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a clinicopathological syndrome characterized by diffuse macrovesicular steatosis and excessive lipid accumulation in the liver due to nonalcoholic reasons and other specific factors for liver injury, including simple fatty liver, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, and liver cirrhosis. With the increasing incidence of NAFLD, the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is also increasing, but the exact mechanism remains unknown. This paper summarizes the roles of lipid accumulation, related cells, proteins, hormones, and metabolites in malignant transformation of hepatocytes, as well as the relationship between NAFLD, HCC, and lipid metabolism, and provides a new perspective for the prevention of HCC in clinical practice.
