Objective:
To improve physical activity by assessing pedometer-based physical activity during specific intervals over a week, among junior high school students,and to provide a reference for improving the level of students’ physical activity.
Methods:
Students (n=675) of grades 6-8 from six public junior high schools in Shanghai were recruited and instructed to wear a pedometer for a week, step counts and contents were recorded over a specific period. This period mainly included steps taken on the way to and from school, at school, at home in the evening on weekdays, and in the morning, afternoon, and evening on weekends.
Results:
The daily step counts recorded were 8 332 steps, with those on weekdays showing significantly higher values than step counts on weekends (9 065 steps vs. 6 392 steps)(t=22.9, P<0.01). Proportionately, the physical activity level at school contributed more to daily step counts (61.3%), followed by those on the commute to and from school(25.5%). Boys were more active than girls. For all intervals on weekdays, the step counts of students in rural districts, with overweight or obese, in grades 6 and 7, were higher than those in urban districts, with normal status, in grade 8 respectively (P<0.05). Low-activity students with physical education were more active than one without physical education(t boy=1.99,t girl=2.45,P<0.05).
Conclusion
These findings facilitate the implementation of effective, feasible interventions to enhance physical activity over a series of intervals during the day.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the status quo ,influential factors of medication compliance and adverse drug reactions of home-based patients with severe mental disorders . METHODS Patients with severe mental disorders at home who were enrolled in the Shanghai mental health information management system in Jinshan district of Shanghai in Jan . 2022 were selected as the research objects . In combination with the relevant basic data registered in the information system and through face -to-face or telephone surveys by mental health doctors ,basic information ,medication compliance ,mental symptoms ,social function defects , drug use information and adverse drug reactions of patients were understood . Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis of medication compliance were performed . RESULTS Totally 2 684 questionnaires were distributed and 2 606 valid questionnaires were recovered ,with an effective recovery rate of 97.10%. The overall medication compliance of patients with severe mental disorders at home was 68.11%. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that 51-60 years old ,unmarried, divorced or widowed ,partial social function defects ,no social function defects , and use of third -generation antipsychotic drugs were the promotion factors of medication compliance , (P<0.05);medical insurance ,non participation in work ,total number of hospitalizations of 1-4 times,total number of hospitalizations ≥ 5 times,general mental symptoms ,and use of second -generation antipsychotic drugs were the obstacles to medication compliance (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse drug reactions in patients with severe mental disorders a t home was 10.59%,mainly caused by second -generation antipsychotic drugs,and no new and serious adverse reactions were reported . CONCLUSIONS The medication compliance of patients with severe mental disorders at home is affected by many factors . It is urgent to need pharmacists ’participation to promote the standardization and rationality of patients ’medication.
