Objective:
To analyze the prevalence and trend of screening myopia among primary and middle school students in Linfen Community of Shanghai from 2019 to 2023, so as to provide a reference for the prevention and control of myopia from the perspective of the community.
Methods:
From 2019 to 2023, all primary(5) and middle(2) school students aged 6-15 years in Linfen Community of Shanghai were screened. Statistical analysis was performed using the Chi square test and trend Chi square test. The curve fitting model was used to fit the model of the increase rate of screening myopia among primary and middle school students in 2019, 2021 and 2023.
Results:
The overall rate of screening myopia among primary and middle school students in Linfen community from 2019 to 2023 was 55.17%. The prevalence rate of screening myopia was 79.43% in boys and 81.92% in girls in middle school, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2=5.71, P =0.02). In 2019, 2021, and 2023, the peak age of screening myopia among primary and middle school students in Linfen Community gradually occurred earlier, at the age of 7(12.13%), 6( 12.28 %), and 6(14.99%) years old, respectively. The growth rate of screening myopia in students aged 8-12 years in 2023 was lower than that in 2019 and 2021.
Conclusions
The screening myopia rate of primary and middle school students aged 6-15 years in Linfen Community is relatively high, with primary school girls higher than boys, and growth spurt accelerates. It is suggested that prevention and control of myopia in the community should focus on preschool children and adolescent girls.

ObjectiveTo analyze the fertility characteristics of the registered population in a neighborhood in Jing’an District, Shanghai from 2013 to 2022, and to provide a reference for population development planning and allocation of public health resources. MethodsData on newborns and puerperae registered in the neighborhood were collected through the Shanghai Birth Medical Information System and Public Security Department information system. Statistical analysis was conducted using Excel 2010, and the Joinpoint regression model was used to describe the changes. ResultsFrom 2013 to 2022, the crude birth rate, general fertility rate, and total fertility rate showed a declining trend, with average annual percent change (AAPC) values of -7.62%, -6.99%, and -4.54%, respectively. The average age of first childbirth and the age of childbearing among women gradually increased, with AAPC values of 1.24% and 1.28%, respectively. In the past 10 years, the total number of newborns showed a downward trend, with an AAPC value of -6.15%. After the implementation of the two-child policy, the proportion of second children showed an increasing trend, with an AAPC value of 7.37%. ConclusionThe fertility level of the population in the neighborhood is declining. The two-child policy has not significantly improved fertility rates, and the age of childbearing in women continues to rise. Diverse measures are needed to encourage childbirths and promote healthy births.

ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological characteristics of senile dementia death in Jing’an District from 2016 to 2020, as well as the trends of mortality, standardized mortality, years of life lost (YLL) due to early death, years lived with disability (YLD), and disability-adjusted life year (DALY), and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of senile dementia. MethodsThe distribution of senile dementia in terms of gender, age, marital status and education level was investigated in the senile dementia death cases from 2016 to 2020 in Jing’an District. The YLL, YLD, DALY and their rates of the residents of Jing’an District from 2016 to 2020 were calculated by using Global Burden of Disease (GBD 2019) research method and results in combination with the corresponding population data. ResultsCompared to those without dementia, deaths with dementia were more likely to be female, more likely to be over 80 years old, less likely to be married, and more likely to have education level under middle school. Among the deaths with dementia, only 27.70% of the primary cause of death was dementia, and the other main causes were cerebrovascular disease, coronary heart disease and diabetes mellitus, which accounted for 25.54%, 17.81% and 7.28%, respectively. There was a significant gender difference in the burden of disease on senile dementia in Jing’an District. Mortality, standardized mortality, YLL, YLD and DALY rates of females were higher than those of males. The burden of disease on senile dementia increased with age. The change trend of mortality and YLL rate from 2016 to 2020 was not statistically significant, while the YLD rate and DALY rate showed an upward trend, which was statistically significant. ConclusionAs the life span of residents in Jing’an District increases and the population aging deepens, the burden of disease on senile dementia is still heavy. This requires extensive attention of the whole society, and active exploration of prevention and control strategies and measures for senile dementia, so as to improve the life quality of patients and reduce the burden of disease.

Background Diabetes mellitus is a major public health issue at present. Previous studies have shown that ambient air pollution is a risk factor for diabetes. Objective This study aims to explore the acute effects of ambient air pollution on diabetes related death in Shanghai Jing’an District. Methods Daily air pollution data, meteorological data, and diabetes related mortality data in 2013−2019 in Shanghai Jing’an District were collected. A generalized additive model (GAM) was established to conduct time-series analysis on the short-term effect of ambient air pollution on diabetes related mortality, and gender- and age-stratified analysis on susceptibility of various groups to ambient air pollution exposures. Results For every 10 μg·m−3 increase of the concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, SO2, and NO2, the diabetes related mortality increased by 2.47% (95%CI: 1.56%−3.38%), 2.02% (95%CI: 1.29%−2.75%), 5.75% (95%CI: 2.99%−8.58%), and 3.93% (95%CI: 2.49%−5.39%) at lag05 respectively (P<0.05). In the stratified analysis, exposures to increased concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, SO2, and NO2 raised the mortality risks from diabetes in male, female, and ≥65 years oldgroups (P<0.05). However, the differences in mortality risks from diabetes due to air pollution within gender and age groups were statistically insignificant. Conclusion In Shanghai Jing'an District, the elevated levels of ambient air pollutants, including PM2.5, PM10, SO2, and NO2, are significantly associated with the increase of diabetes related mortality, and there are lag effects and cumulative effects. The ≥65 years olds are more susceptible to the impact of air pollution on diabetes related deaths.
