1.Sleep duration and associated factors among 3-6 year-old children in Zhejiang Province
Chinese Journal of School Health 2021;42(2):269-272
Objective:
To explore sleep duration and associated factors among children aged 3-6 years old in Zhejiang Province.
Methods:
A total of 7 034 children aged 3-6 years from 24 kindergartens in Zhejiang province were selected through clustered sampling method. Through parental questionnaire, child sleep duration and associated factors were colleted. Possible influencing factors of sleep insufficiency were analyzed by logistic regression model.
Results:
The rate of insufficient sleep was 56.1%, with 57.1% for boys and 55.1% for girls in Zhejiang Province. The rate of insufficient sleep increased with the increase of age, which was 46.7%, 49.8%, 50.2%, 55.2%, 64.0%, 65.8% and 68.1% for 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5 and 6.0 years old group (χ 2=45.71, P<0.01), respectively. The rate of insufficient sleep was 59.9%, 54.7% and 45.6% for children with <1 h/d, 1-2 h/d and ≥2 h/d outdoor physical activity (χ 2=67.10, P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression model showed that children older than 4.5 years old, whose caregiver was other than parents, outdoor activity time< 1 h/d and 1-2 h/d, maternal education below junior middle school and senior high school were positiviely associated with sleep insufficiency [OR(95%CI) was 1.29(1.07-1.54), 1.97(1.64-2.37), 2.04(1.69-2.46), 2.35(1.82-3.03), 1.21(1.08-1.35), 1.73(1.49-2.01), 1.47(1.26-1.72), 1.35(1.15-1.59), 1.16(1.01-1.32), P<0.05].
Conclusion
Sleep insufficiency among preschool children is associated with multiple factors, increase of age, insufficient outdoor activity and overdose screen time in particular. The finding calls for outdoor physical activity promotion among preschool children, especially for those whose caregivers are those other than parents.
2.Influence of family related factors on the weekend screen time of preschool school
Chinese Journal of School Health 2020;41(2):194-196
Objective:
To investigate the level of preschool children’s weekend screen time in Zhejiang Province, and to explore family related factors.
Methods:
A total of 6 829 preschool children were selected from 25 kindergartens in Zhejiang Province from March to April 2019. Through a questionnaire survey among their caregivers, relevant data and information such as children’s screen time and family related factors were obtained.
Result:
The report rate of children in different age groups whose average screen time per day on weekends ≥2 h/d: boys were higher than girls( P <0.05); and the difference between boys and girls in the age groups of 3, 3.5, 4 and 6 was statistically significant( P <0.05). At the age of 3, the lowest rate of video time ≥2 h/d report was 9.57% and 6.03% for boys and girls, while at the age of 5.5, the highest rate was 18.49% and 17.37% for boys and girls. Logistic regression analysis showed that age, boy( OR =1.33), caregiver( OR =1.42), father’s high school( OR =1.36), father’s junior high school and below( OR =1.37), and parents’ no exercise habit ( OR =1.47) were associated with high screen time during weekend( P <0.05).
Conclusion
Family related factors can affect children’s screen time. Parents should pay attention to children’s screen time in the process of children’s growth.

Objective To evaluate the 15 years changing trends of prevalence of high risk HPV (HR?HPV) infection and the risks of cervical cancer and precancerous lesions (CIN2+) among a Chinese rural population. Methods The screening cohort with 1 997 women aged 35 to 45 years old was built in 1999 in Xiangyuan County, Shanxi province ( SPOCCS?I) and followed up by cytology and HR?HPV testing in the years of 2005, 2010, and 2014. The changes of HR?HPV prevalence and the risks of cervical precancerous lesions with CIN2+ as the endpoints were analyzed during the past 15 years. Results The detection rates of HPV infection and CIN2+ were 15.7%?22.3% and 1.1%?4.3% for the baseline visit and the other 3 follow?ups, respectively. The cumulative risk of CIN2+ in HR?HPV positive women at baseline was significantly higher than HR?HPV negative women ( P<0.01) during the 15?year follow?up. The risk of CIN2+ in the four?times HPV positive group was 40. 0%, while the group with four?times negative HPV results was 0.6% (Adjusted RR = 55.0, 95% CI: 11.3 to 268.4). Conclusions The prevalence of HR?HPV infection and CIN2+ lesions were high in Xiangyuan county during the 15 years. HR?HPV positivity elevated the risk of CIN2+ compared to women whose HR?HPV test was negative. The risks of CIN2+incidence in 6 years were low among women with negative HR?HPV test. The risk of CIN2+ increased with the numbers of HPV infection events. The screening interval could be extended to 5?6 years.
