Chinese Journal of School Health 2022;43(2):268-273
Objective:
To explore the association between maternal pre pregnancy and pre delivery overweight with overweight and obesity among offspring during adolescence in Guangzhou, and to provide evidence for child obesity prevention.
Methods:
Based on the routine physical examination of primary and secondary school students in Guangzhou, random sampling was used to 6 middle schools and questionnaire survey was conducted among 3 384 students and their parents. Students with overweight and obesity were included in the case group, and the other students were included in the control group. Propensity Score Matching (PSM) was adopted to reduce selection bias. Logistic regression model and χ 2 test were used to analyze the data before and after PSM.
Results:
The result of univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences between overweight/obese group and the control group by gender, schooling stage (middle and high schools), picky eater, family history of obesity, family monthly income, delivery mode, high birthweight, and gestational weight gain before PSM( χ 2=42.38, 10.64, 14.47, 26.85, 10.58, 13.59 , 15.53, 20.64, P <0.05). After PSM, results showed that there were no statistically significant differences between overweight/obese group and the control group in middle and high schools, and mother delivery mode( P >0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of overweight and obesity of maternal pre pregnancy on adolescent offspring was 1.54 times higher than control group (95% CI =1.01-2.36) before PSM, and the overweight and obesity of maternal predelivery also increased the risk of overweight and obesity of adolescent offspring( OR=2.35, 95%CI =1.67-3.31). After PSM, maternal overweight and obesity pre pregnancy ( OR=2.17, 95%CI =1.41-3.34) and maternal overweight and obesity pre delivery( OR=2.99, 95%CI =2.08-4.31) significantly increased the risk of overweight and obesity in adolescent offspring.
Conclusion
Maternal overweight and obesity pre pregnancy and pre delivery are associated with increased risk of overweight and obesity in adolescent offspring.

Objective:To learn about the current status of iodine nutrition of key populations in Shiyan City, Hubei Province, and to provide basis for guiding key populations to supplement iodine scientifically.Methods:According to the requirements of the "National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Surveillance Program (2016 Edition)", pregnant women and school-age children aged 8 - 10 (age balanced, half male and half female) in 8 counties (cities, districts) under the jurisdiction of Shiyan City, Hubei Province were selected from 2017 to 2020. Their household edible salt samples and urine samples were collected to detect salt iodine and urinary iodine contents, respectively. At the same time, the thyroid gland of children was examined by B-ultrasonic and the goiter rate was calculated.Results:In total, 3 198 household edible salt samples of pregnant women were tested, the median salt iodine was 23.7 mg/kg, the coverage rate of iodized salt was 99.9% (3 196/3 198), the qualified rate of iodized salt was 96.0% (3 068/3 196), and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 95.9% (3 068/3 198). Totally 2 898 urine samples of pregnant women were tested, and the median urinary iodine was 198.2 μg/L. In total, 6 363 household edible salt samples of children were tested, the median salt iodine was 23.8 mg/kg, the coverage rate of iodized salt was 99.8% (6 352/6 363), the qualified rate of iodized salt was 95.5% (6 067/6 352), and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 95.3% (6 067/6 363). Totally 5 764 urine samples of children were tested, and the median urinary iodine was 259.8 μg/L. Totally 2 188 children were examined, and the goiter rate was 0.4% (9/2 188).Conclusions:From 2017 to 2020, the coverage rates of iodized salt (≥95%), consumption rates of qualified iodized salt ( > 90%) of key populations and the goiter rate of children ( < 5%) in Shiyan City of Hubei Province are in line with the national standards for eliminating iodine deficiency disorders. Pregnant women are generally at an appropriate level of iodine (150 - 249 μg/L) and children are generally at the super appropriate level of iodine (200 - 299 μg/L). It is necessary to continue to strengthen the monitoring of iodine nutrition in key populations and implement the strategy of "adjusting measures to local conditions, classified guidance and scientific iodine supplementation".

Objective:
To explore the effect of the comprehensive intervention on overweight and obesity among middle school students at the population level (health education lecture and official account push) and individual level (personalized dietary guidance), so as to provide a reference for preventing and controlling their overweight and obesity.
Methods:
Three junior high schools and three senior high schools were randomly selected in Guangzhou in 2018 by convenience sampling. Through physical examination, 1 457 overweight and obese students aged from 12 to 18 years old were screened. Intervention was administered through "Student Personalized Dietary Guidance" manual, health tweets on the official accounts, and health education lectures from September 2018 to December 2019. The Chi square test was used to compare the difference in overweight and obesity constituent ratio between the two groups before and after the intervention. And intervention effect was evaluated by analyzing the number needed to treated(NTT).
Results:
The proportion of overweight before the intervention was 66.71% (972/1 457), and decreased to 59.92% (873/1 457) after the intervention; the proportion of obesity before the intervention was 33.29% (485/1 457), which decreased to 26.63% (388/1 457) after the intervention. Among obese students, the smallest NNT was seen in the girl group aged 12-13 years (NNT=2.6, 95% CI =1.9-4.1), while the largest NNT in the boy group aged 14-18 years (NNT=5.9, 95% CI =4.7-8.1). The NNT of the girls aged 12-13 years was the smallest (NNT=2.7, 95% CI =2.2-3.5), and the NNT of the boys aged 14-18 years was the largest (NNT=7.4, 95% CI =6.0-9.7).
Conclusion
Health education at population level (health education lectures, official account push) with individual level (personalized dietary guidance) can effectively intervene overweight and obesity among middle school students in Guangzhou.

Objective:To evaluate the consistency of individual iodine nutrition levels by serum iodine, plasma iodine and whole blood iodine, and to provide reference for iodine-related epidemiological investigation.Methods:Healthy adults aged 18 - 59 years were recruited from the Research Center of Environment and Health in Water Source Area of South-to-North Water Diversion of Hubei University of Medicine. Whole blood sample was collected and serum and plasma were separated. The content of iodine in serum, plasma and whole blood was determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), and the linear relationship, precision and accuracy of the standard curve of the detection method were evaluated. The difference of three kinds of blood iodine levels was analyzed by variance analysis of compatibility group design, and Passing-Bablok regression and Bland-Altman plot were used to evaluate the consistency between serum iodine and plasma iodine.Results:The linear range of iodine in serum, plasma and whole blood was 0.0 - 25.0 μg/L, and the correlation coefficients ( R2) were all > 0.999. The relative standard deviation of 8 mixed blood samples ranged from 1.9% to 4.3% ( n = 6), and the determination results of blood iodine certified standard substances were all within the reference range. The recovery rate of the added standard ranged from 99% to 106%. The iodine levels in serum, plasma and whole blood of 50 volunteers were (57.31 ± 8.06), (57.49 ± 8.50) and (33.89 ± 5.40) μg/L, respectively, and there was no statistically significant difference between serum iodine and plasma iodine ( P = 0.904). The results of Passing-Bablok regression showed that there was no statistically significant difference in bias between serum iodine and plasma iodine ( P = 0.538). The Bland-Altman plot indicated that the difference between serum iodine and plasma iodine was within the consistency limit. Conclusion:The results of plasma iodine and serum iodine are in good agreement, and plasma iodine can be used as an evaluation index of individual iodine nutrition level. But there is no consistency between whole blood iodine and serum iodine.
