1.Analysis of related factors for the comorbidity of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia
Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(1):27-31
Objective:
To investigate the factors influencing the co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia, so as to provide a data foundation and theoretical basis for developing targeted intervention measures.
Methods:
In September and October 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select 139 102 students from 539 schools across 12 leagues/cities and 103 banners/counties in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Participants who were diagnosed with allergic rhinitis by a doctor at least once within one year and had a body mass index ≥ 28 kg/m 2 were considered to have comorbid conditions.
Results:
The coprevalence rate of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia was 6.4% (8 931 cases). Lasso-Logistic regression revealed that nonboarding status, higher maternal education, consuming high protein foods ≥1 time daily, occasionally or never eating breakfast, engaging in moderate to vigorous physical activity for ≥60 minutes on fewer than half of holidays, and having been exposed to second hand smoke in person within the past seven days were associated with higher odds ratios for co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity( OR = 1.23 , 1.22-1.63, 1.20, 1.19, 1.38, 1.35); being female, higher grade level, residence in flag/county/district areas, non only child status, never having consumed a full glass of alcohol, non hypertensive status, and households without pets were associated with lower co-prevalence risks ( OR =0.65, 0.67-0.77, 0.81, 0.87, 0.73, 0.41, 0.68) (all P <0.05). The ROC curve indicated an area under the curve of 0.64 for the predictive model, demonstrating satisfactory discriminatory ability. The calibration curve showed consistency between predicted and actual occurrence probabilities.
Conclusions
The co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia is closely associated with demographic characteristics, dietary behaviours, and lifestyle habits. Future prevention and control strategies should prioritize these factors to implement targeted interventions.

Objective To analyze the distribution characteristics and trends of occupational exposure types of medical radiation workers in Gansu Province, China, and to provide a basis for administrative departments to formulate and adjust radiation protection policies. Methods According to the radiation health information platform, the data of occupational exposure types of radiation workers in Gansu Province from 2014 to 2023 were obtained. The proportions of occupational exposure types in each physical examination year was statistically analyzed. Results From 2014 to 2023, the number of medical radiation workers accounted for more than 70% of the total number of radiation workers. The proportion of X-ray imaging diagnostic radiation workers in the total number of medical radiation workers gradually decreased but remained the highest, exceeding 68% annually. The proportion of interventional radiology workers in the total number of medical radiation workers increased from 13.8% to 25.5%. The proportions of radiation therapy and nuclear medicine workers in the total number of medical radiation workers increased slowly. The numbers of interventional radiology and radiotherapy workers in tertiary hospitals both accounted for more than 70% of the total number of such workers in the province. The proportion of interventional radiology workers increased and then decreased. The proportion of radiotherapy workers increased significantly from 70.5% to 93.0%. The number of nuclear medicine workers in tertiary hospitals accounted for more than 80% of such workers in the province. Conclusion Radiation protection policies and measures should be adjusted according to the changes in the types of occupational exposure. The focus of these policies and measures should differ depending on the level of healthcare institutions, the type of radiological diagnostic and therapeutic services, and the characteristics of various occupational exposure types .

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Jianwei xiaoshi oral liquid in the treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD) in children, and provide evidence-based basis for clinical use of the drug. METHODS Retrieved from CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, CBM, Cochrane Library and PubMed, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about Jianwei xiaoshi oral liquid in the treatment of FD in children were collected from the inception to Apr. 2024. The control group was treated with conventional western drugs (including gastrointestinal motion-promoting, antacids or acid-suppressing drugs), and the trial group was treated with Jianwei xiaoshi oral liquid alone or combined with conventional Western drugs (drug dosage and course of treatment were the same as the control group). Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software after quality evaluation with the Cochrane risk bias assessment tool 6.1. RESULTS Totally 16 literature were employed which included 1 962 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that the total clinical effective rate of Jianwei xiaoxi oral liquid in the treatment of FD in children of trial group was significantly higher than that of the control group [RR=1.18, 95%CI (1.13, 1.22), P<0.000 01]. In this study, subgroup analysis was conducted on the usage and dosage, course of treatment, and combination or not in trial group, as well as the type of conventional Western drugs. The results showed that the total clinical effective rate of trial group was significantly higher than that of control group; the relief time of abdominal distension and abdominal pain in trial group [MD=-2.54, 95%CI (-3.10, -1.98)], loss of appetite relief time [MD=-2.12, 95%CI (-2.63, -1.61)], nausea and vomiting relief time [MD=-1.70, 95%CI (-2.27, -1.14)], and belching relief time [MD=-1.61, 95%CI (-2.44, -0.78)] were shorter than that of the control group significantly (P<0.05). In addition, compared with control group, the levels of gastrin [SMD=1.63, 95%CI (0.98, 2.29)] and motilin [SMD=2.06, 95%CI (1.58, 2.54)] as well as gastric antral emptying rate [MD=5.99, 95%CI (2.78, 9.21)] in trial group were increased significantly, while the level of somatostatin was decreased significantly [SMD=-1.30, 95%CI (-1.57, -1.02)] (P≤0.000 3). CONCLUSIONS Jianwei xiaoshi oral liquid, whether used alone or in combination with other medications, and regardless of the treatment course or dosage and usage, is effective in treating FD in children, with good safety.

[Objective] To explore the therapeutic effects of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) on dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis (UC). [Methods] C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to the control group, the DSS group (model) and the DSS+IVIG group (treatment). The DSS group and the DSS+IVIG group received 3% DSS in drinking water to establish the acute UC mouse model. During the experiment, the DSS+IVIG group received IVIG (1 g/kg/2d) via tail vein injection, while the DSS group received equivalent saline via tail vein injection at the same dose and frequency. The symptoms of the mice were observed, body weight changes were recorded, and the disease activity index (DAI) was calculated daily. At the end of the experiment, hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes and inflammatory cell infiltration of colon tissue; Periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining was used to quantify the number of goblet cells; Luminex was used to detect the levels of inflammatory-related cytokines (such as TNF-α, IL-6 and MMPs) in colon; western blot and qRT-PCR were respectively used to detect the protein expression and mRNA levels of tight junction proteins (ZO-1, Occludin, Claudin-3). [Results] DSS induced weight loss, diarrhea, bloody stool, increased DAI score, and shortened colon length in mice. Compared with DSS group, after the administration of IVIG, the DAI score was significantly reduced (P<0.001), colon length was increased (P<0.001), infiltration of inflammatory cells and pathological damage were alleviated in colonic mucosa (P<0.001), the number of goblet cells were increased (P<0.05), and the levels of inflammatory-related cytokines TNF-α, IL-6, IL-6R, MMP2, MMP3 and Chitinase3like1 were decreased (all P<0.05). Western blot and qRT - PCR results showed that IVIG significantly up-regulated the protein expression of ZO-1, Occludin and claudin-3 (all P<0.05) and the mRNA levels of ZO-1 and Occludin (all P<0.05). [Conclusion] IVIG has protective effects on colitis by inhibiting the pathological release of inflammatory-related cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6 and MMPs and restoring the integrity of intestinal barrier.

To investigate body composition and associated factors in adolescents undergoing long-term regular sports training. This prospective longitudinal cohort study employed convenience sampling to recruit adolescents receiving structured athletic training at Jining Sports Training Center in June 2023. Baseline measurements included height, weight, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, heart rate, waist circumference, and hip circumference. Questionnaires assessed sleep duration, screen time, and household income. Follow-up measurements in June 2024 repeated these assessments while adding bioelectrical impedance analysis for body composition (lean mass, skeletal muscle mass, fat mass, and body fat percentage). Linear regression models examined associations between training type (direct-contact vs. non-contact sports) and follow-up body fat percentage, BMI, and waist circumference as dependent variables, adjusting for covariates. The study included 110 adolescents (39 female, 71 male) with median age 13.21 years (IQR: 12.46-14.33). Participants comprised 65 direct-contact and 45 non-contact athletes. Baseline prevalence rates were 27.27% for overweight/obesity, 24.55% for elevated waist circumference, and 16.36% for elevated blood pressure. At follow-up, corresponding rates were 24.55%, 26.36%, and 13.64% respectively. The elevated blood pressure subgroup showed significantly higher waist circumference ( Despite regular athletic training, substantial proportions of adolescents exhibited overweight/obesity, abdominal obesity, and elevated blood pressure, warranting clinical attention. Training modality appears to influence body composition changes, with direct-contact sports associated with more favorable adiposity-related outcomes.
