Objective: To investigate the impact of physical self-efficacy on physical activity and physical health among university students, so as to provide insights into formulation of the strategy to improve physical activity and physical health among university students. Methods: Freshmen and sophomores were sampled from a university in Guangzhou City using a convenience sampling method from December 2021 to April 2022. Students' demographics and types of sport exercises were collected using questionnaire surveys. Physical self-efficacy was tested using the Physical Self-efficacy Scale, and physical activity was measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short, while physical health was evaluated using the school physical health standard test. The associations of physical self-efficacy with physical activity and physical health were examined using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 4 171 questionnaires were allocated, and 3 811 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a effective recovery rate of 91.37%. The respondents included 1 582 males (41.51%) and 2 229 females (58.49%), and included 1 967 freshmen (51.61%) and 1 844 sophomores (48.39%). The median score of physical self-efficacy was 36 (interquartile range, 7) points, and there were 1 777 students reaching the national standard of physical activity (46.63%) and 1 112 students with excellent and good physical health (29.18%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that physical self-efficacy was a promoting factor for the proportion of reaching the national standard of physical activity (OR=1.054, 95%CI: 1.043-1.064) and excellent and good physical health (OR=1.109, 95%CI: 1.096-1.122) after adjustment for gender, grade, specialty and source of students. Conclusion The improvement of physical self-efficacy may increase the proportion of reaching the national standard of physical activity and excellent and good physical health among university students.

Objective:To explore the effect of "321" health education model in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar fractures (OTF) .Methods:From January 2019 to June 2021, convenience sampling was used to select 112 elderly patients after OTF surgery in Hefei First People's Hospital as the research object. The patients were divided into the experimental group and the control group by random number table method, 56 cases in each group. The control group was given routine nursing and health education for patients after OTF surgery, while the experimental group was given "321" health education. The scores of Health Behavior Questionnaire, incidence of complications, and quality of life scores were compared between the two groups before intervention and after 6 months follow-up.Results:There were 54 and 51 patients in the experimental group and the control group, respectively, who completed the study. After 6 months of follow-up, the total score and the dimension scores of the Health Behavior Questionnaire in the two groups were higher than those before the intervention, except for the other behavior dimension, the total score of the Health Behavior Questionnaire and the scores of other dimensions in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group, all differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The incidence of complications in the experimental group (3.70%, 2/54) was lower than that in the control group (15.69%, 8/51) , and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=4.669, P=0.031) . The total score and the dimension scores of quality of life in the two groups were lower than those before education, and the total score and the dimension scores of quality of life in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) .

OBJECTIVETo investigate the actual condition of the sexual physiological and psychological development of the high school students in Yibin in order to get a reliable basis for sexual education of the teenagers.

METHODSWith a proportion of 1% to the whole, 2,770 students were randomly selected from eight high schools in the urban and rural areas of the city. We devised a questionnaire and asked each student to fill in his or her answers presently.

RESULTSSo far as sexual physiological and psychological development was concerned, the high school students of Yibin were found rather precocious, with very little sexual knowledge and psychological endurance in sexual affairs and a relative lack of sexual education.

CONCLUSIONIt is imperative to extend the scope of puberty sexual education in high schools. Teenagers must be taught different kinds of sexual knowledge at different periods of growth as well as how to avoid sexually transmitted diseases and gestation. The sexual knowledge level of the teachers must also be raised. It is a must to establish service or specialist consultation hot lines about sexual knowledge for teenagers. Parents are expected to change their traditional views and assume an active role in the joint efforts of sexual education for their children.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of gastric stump cancer.Method:The clinical data of 126 gastric stump cancer patients from Jan 1995 to Dec 2014 were collected . We analyzed the survival and prognosis of patients in terms of gender, tumor location, size, clinicopathological stage and treatment methods.Results:For primary surgery, B-Ⅱ GI reconstruction were more likely associated with gastric stump cancer, accounting for 69.8% of the total cases, and cancer was more likely to occur at the anastomotic stoma and in its vicinity, accounting for 62.3%. The 1'- , 3'- , and 5-year survival rates of 126 patients were 90.4%, 57.9%, and 41.2%, respectively. The 1'-, 3'- and 5-year overall survival rates in radical operation group were 96.9%, 74.2% and 53.6% respectively, while it was 69.0%, 3.4% and 0 respectively in palliative operation group (all P<0.01). Univariate analysis showed that tumor size, invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, distant organ metastasis, TNM stage, histological type, treatment mode and chemotherapy were related to the prognosis (all P<0.01). By multivariate analysis, radical resection and chemotherapy were protective factors for the prognosis ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Most gastric stump cancer are associated with distal subtotal gastrectomy and B-Ⅱ reconstruction . Radical resection is an effective therapy for gastric stump cancer.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of microsurgical resection in primary jugular foramen schwannomas (JFSs).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed; the clinical data of 58 patients with JFSs treated by microsurgery in Department of Neurosurgery, First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from May 2012 to June 2021 were collected. Seven patients accepted microsurgery via suboccipital retrosigmoid approach, and 51 patients accepted microsurgery via jugular foramen approach. Fifty-three patients were followed up for 4.5 years (ranged from 0.5-8.5 years); follow-ups included Karnofsky performance status (KPS) scores, postoperative complications, and imaging reexaminations. Results:Fifty patients (86.2%) achieved total tumor resection and 8 (13.8%) subtotal resection. The KPS scores at discharge were 68.6±14.9, which were significantly lower than the preoperative KPS scores (77.6±13.5, t=2.452, P=0.017). During the follow-up, 5 patients(9.4%) had tumor recurrence, and 39 patients (73.6%) had improved symptoms after surgery. One patient (1.9%, modified Samii D type) died of cerebellar hemorrhage and swelling after surgery. The main complications included new/aggravated hoarseness (11/53), cerebrospinal fluid leakage (7/53), new/aggravated dysphagia (5/53), and new facial paralysis (4/53). Conclusion:In microsurgical resection of JFSs, short-term symptoms of the lower cranial nerves may be exacerbated, but long-term results are good.

Objective To investigate the impacts of quercetin(QUE)on angiogenesis and hypoxia inducible factor-1α/vascular endothelial growth factor(HIF-1α/VEGF)signaling pathway in periodontal tissue of orthodontic tooth movement in rats.Methods A rat model of orthodontic tooth movement was constructed,and the modeled rats were randomly separated into the model group,the low-dose quercetin treatment(QUE-L)group,the high-dose quercetin treatment(QUE-H)group and the QUE-H+pathway inhibitor YC-1(QUE-H+YC-1)group,with 12 rats in each group.Another 12 rats were regarded as the control group.The movement distance of the first molar of rats in each group was measured.HE staining was applied to observe the pathological changes of periodontal tissue and count the number of blood vessels generated in periodontal tissue.Immunohistochemistry was applied to detect expression levels of bone morphogenetic protein 2(BMP2)and bone morphogenetic protein 4(BMP4)in periodontal tissue.Western blot assay was applied to detect the expression of HIF-1α/VEGF signaling pathway related proteins.Results Compared with the control group,the periodontal tissue fibers were scattered and disordered in the model group,with an increased intercellular space,infiltration of a large number of inflammatory cells and bone resorption pits,the movement distance of the first molar increased,the number of periodontal tissue blood vessels decreased,and the expression of BMP2,BMP4,HIF-1α and VEGF decreased(P＜0.05).The fibrous arrangement of periodontal tissue was relatively tight in the QUE-L group and the QUE-H group compared to the model group,with reduced infiltration of inflammatory cells and reduced alveolar bone resorption.The movement distance of the first molar decreased,the number of periodontal tissue blood vessels increased,and the expression of BMP2,BMP4,HIF-1α and VEGF increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the QUE-H group,the periodontal tissue fibers in the QUE-H+YC-1 group were scattered and disordered,with obvious intercellular gaps,increased infiltration of inflammatory cells and increased bone resorption pits,the movement distance of the first molar increased,the number of blood vessels in periodontal tissue decreased,and the expression of BMP2,BMP4,HIF-1α and VEGF decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusion Quercetin can promote angiogenesis in periodontal tissue during orthodontic tooth movement in rats,and its mechanism is related to the activation of the HIF-1α/VEGF signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate the spatial resolution and image quality of positron emission tomography and X-ray computed tomography (PET/CT) based on the next-generation silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) and the conventional photomultiplier tube (PMT) and to explore the effects of different PET photoelectric transducers (PMT and SiPM) and the Q. Clear algorithm on the spatial resolution, quantitative accuracy, and image quality of PET/CT.Methods:GE Discovery Elite PET/CT (PMT PET/CT) and GE Discovery Meaningful Insights (MI) PET/CT (SiPM PET/CT) were employed to scan the elliptical resolution phantom and NEMA NU2-2018 image quality phantom. Using the OSEM+ PSF+ TOF (VPFX-S) algorithm, image reconstruction was performed based on raw data of both phantoms. For the MI-acquired phantom data, additional reconstructions were conducted using the Q. Clear algorithm, with β values ranging from 150 to 550 and an increment of 100. For the elliptical resolution phantom, the radial, tangential, and axial full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) values of five line sources in three slices were calculated and averaged. For the image quality phantom, the recovery coefficient (RC), contrast recovery coefficient (CRC), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), percentage of background variability (PBV), background coefficient of variability (BCV) of the spheres, as well as the residual error (RE) of lung inserts at different image slices, were calculated.Results:Compared to Elite, MI (VPFX-S) showed decreases in the radial, tangential, and axial FWHM of 4.25%-13.58%, 7.00%-13.22%, and 6.02%-36.14%, respectively; no significant difference in RCmax for the spheres; increases in spheres′ CRC and CNR of 10.17%-38.89% and 38.31%-94.95%, respectively, and decreases in spheres′ PBV and BCV of 26.20%-33.82% and 31.29%-35.97%, respectively. When compared to MI (VPFX-S), MI (Q.Clear) showed decreases in the radial, tangential, and axial FWHM of 6.49%-45.02%, 7.80%-35.60%, and 13.31%-36.80%, respectively; an increase in spheres′ CNR of 38.31%-94.95%; decreases in spheres′ PBV and BCV of 26.20%-33.82% and 6.64%-10.31%, respectively, and no significant difference in spheres′ RC. With an increase in the β value, the CNR, RE, and FWHM in radial, tangential, and axial directions derived from MI (Q.Clear) increased, while RC, CRC, PBV, and BCV decreased. Conclusions:Under image reconstruction using VPFX-S, the next-generation SiPM PET/CT exhibits elevated spatial resolution, hot lesion contrast, detectability, and background noise compared to the PMT PET/CT. Compared to OSEM, the Q. Clear algorithm improves spatial resolution, quantitative accuracy, and image quality, with such improvement related to the β value. The β value affects the outcomes of the Q. Clear algorithm, especially the maximum quantitative value of small lesions. This is particularly important for improving clinical diagnostic capabilities.
