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 observe the effect of radiofrequency thermocoagulation on patients with refractory supraorbital neuralgia Methods From February, 2007 to September, 2014, 36 patients with refractory supraorbital neuralgia following ineffective conservative ther-apy including medicine and nerve blockade underwent radiofrequency thermocoagulation. Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), Patient Satisfaction Scale (PSS), onset time, effective rate, recurrence rate, additional carbamazepine dosage and side effects were recorded before, and one day, one month, three months, six months, one year, two years after treatment. NRS=0 or 50%diminution was considered effectively. Results It worked two days on average (zero to seven) after treatment. The NRS score decreased (P<0.05) and the PSS score increased (P<0.05) com-pared with the data before treatment. The effective rate was 100%within six months. The recurrence rate was 11.1%within two years. Sec-ond radiofrequency thermocoagulation treatment still worked for the recurrent patients. No other side effect was observed, except permanent frontal numbness, short-time palpebral edema and ecchymosis. Conclusion Radiofrequency thermocoagulation is effective on refractory su-praorbital neuralgia, and the side effects are tolerable so it is an alternative choice for patients experiencing invalid conservative therapy.

Objective To study the computed tomograhpy (CT) features of non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) and multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis (MDR-TB), and to improve the differential diagnosis of the disease. Methods The CT imaging data of 67 patients diagnosed with NTM pulmonary disease (NTM lung disease group) and 103 patients with MDR-TB (MDR-TB group) were selected from January 2010 to December 2015 in our hospital. The imaging findings and differences in lesion location were compared between two groups. Results Lesions of NTM lung disease occurred in the posterior segment of the posterior and posterior lumbar dorsal (Ⅰarea), clustered lobular central nodules, accompanied by bronchiectasis and subpleural thin wall empty, rare bronchial foci. MDR-TB lesions occurred in the middle lobe of the right lung and the upper lobe of the left lung (Ⅱarea). The upper lung of the lungs were patch, nodules and caseous lesions, with thick wall and chronic lung inflammation, showing thick wall empty, pulmonary consolidation, atelectasis, calcification (lung), hilar mediastinal lymph node calcification, lung volume reduction, pleural thickening and pleural effusion. Conclusion Chest CT images are similar in NTM lung disease and MDR-TB, but there are differences. The detailed analysis of image features can provide a basis for clinical differential diagnosis.

Objective To observe the effect of pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) on refractory infraorbital neuralgia. Methods From January, 2012 to December, 2014, 49 patients who received ineffective conservative therapy including medicine and nerve blockade underwent PRF treatment. Postoperative Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)=0 or 50%diminution of NRS was considered effective. NRS, effective rate, addition-al carbamazepine dosage and side effects were recorded on the first day, the first week, the second week, the first month, the third month, the sixth month, the first year, and the second year after operation. Results The effective rate were 67%, 67%, 65%, 59%and 51%on the first month, the third month, the sixth month, the first year, and the second year after operation, respectively. No serious side effect was observed, except that eight patients felt short-term (within one month) mild numbness. Conclusion PRF technique is safe and effective for refractory infraorbital neuralgia, and may become an alternative therapy.

Objietive Observe the clinical curative effect of PPH in treatment of complexity hemorrhoids and circular hemorrhoid. Methods From January 2010 to January 2014, the clinical data of 278 patients who underwent PPH to treat complexity hemorrhoids, mixed hemorrhoid and circular hemorrhoid were retrospectively analyzed. The postoperative recent and forward curative effect was observed. Results The average operativetime was 28 minutes, and the average hospital stay were 6. 1 days. There were postoperative complications such as pain, anal skin edema, bleeding and urinary retention. 186 cases were cured (66. 9%),35 cases were markedly improved (12. 6%),20 ca-ses were of poor effect (7. 2%),and recurrence occured in 37 cases (13. 3%). Conclusion PPH has the advantages of simple in operation and quick in postoperative recovery. But there were to many postoperative complications and the recurrence rate is high. So PPH needs more further observation and study.

AIM: To investigate the immunologic mechanism of CXC chemokine ligand 10(CXCL10) and its receptor CXC chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3 ) involved in the process of endometriosis (EM). METHODS: Serum samples were collected from 3 groups; EM patients without operation (n = 76) , EM patients with operation (n = 10) and the normal control persons (n =76). CXCL10 and CA12S concentrations were detected by means of ELISA and chemilumino-metry. Cell surface antigens on the activated PBMC - CD3 and CXCR3, as well as CXCR3 subgene - CXCR3A and CX-CR3B were tested by flow cytometry (FC) and RT - PCR when PBMC was separated from women with EM ( n = 10) and without EM (n = 10), and then activated. RESULTS: Serum CXCL10 concentrations between three groups were signifi-canly different (P < 0.05). Compared to normal control group, although the supernatant CXCL10 concentration and CD3~+ /CXCR3~+ PBMC number in EM group has no significant difference (P >0.05) , highly expressed CXCR3B in EM group rather than CXCR3A was observed. CONCLUSION: CXCL10 in women with EM is low, indicating that it plays a vital role in the process of EM and immune system of the women with EM is defected and impaired. The immunoreactivity of PBMC from both EM patients and normal person is same to activated signal, but the productions are different: PBMC in EM group mainly express CXCR3B but PBMC in normal person mainly express CXCR3A after activation, which may be one of the immune mechanisms that EM escapes from immunological lethal effect of the infected host.

The present paper is to study the center line of the plantar pressure of normal young people, and to find the relation between center line of the plantar pressure and gait stability and balance. The paper gives the testing principle and calculating methods for geometric center of plantar pressure distribution and the center of pressure due to the techniques of footprint frame. The calculating formulas in both x direction and y direction are also deduced in the paper. In the experiments carried out in our laboratory, the gait parameters of 131 young subjects walking as usual speed were acquired, and 14 young subjects of the total were specially analyzed. We then provided reference data for the walking gait database of young people, including time parameters, space parameters and plantar pressure parameters. We also obtained the line of geometry center and pressure center under the foot. We found that the differences existed in normal people's geometric center line and the pressure center line. The center of pressure trajectory revealed foot movement stability. The length and lateral changes of the center line of the plantar pressure could be applied to analysis of the plantar pressure of all kinds of people. The results in this paper are useful in clinical foot disease diagnosis and evaluation of surgical effect.

Objective Few reports are seen on the methods of establishing the rabbit model of pancreatic cancer .This study was to compare the effect of Panc-1 cell suspension orthotopic implantation with that of VX-2 tissue orthotopic implantation in construc-ting the rabbit model of pancreatic cancer . Methods Using the random number table method , we divided 30 healthy rabbits into a tissue suspension group ( n=15) and a cell suspension group ( n=15) , VX-2 tissue suspension employed for in-situ implanting in the former group and panc-1 cell suspension utilized in the latter .Then we evaluated the two modeling methods by B-ultrasonography , 3.0T MRI, and CT. Results In the third week after modeling , transpla-ntive metastasis of lots of tumor tissues was observed in the duode-num, colon, appendix, and peritoneal wall in 5 rabbits of the tissue suspension group , but only in the greater omentum of 3 rabbits in the cell suspension group , with high signals of MR T 2 in the posterior gastric body .One case of duodenal metastasis was seen in the cell suspension group , with slightly high signals of MR LAVA in the posterior gastric body .The model of pancreatic cancer was successfully established in all the 15 rabbits of the tissue suspension group , but only in 3 of the cell suspension group .The success rate of tumor im-planting at 3 and 4 weeks was significantly higher in the former ( 46.66%and 100%) than in the latter group ( 6.67%and 20.00%) (P<0.05). Conclusion VX-2 tissue orthotopic implantation is a more feasible and convenient method than Panc -1 cell suspension orthotopic implantation for establishing the rabbit model of pancreatic cancer .
