Objective:
To explore the effect of replacing rice bowls with trays on controlling the salt intake among school aged children, providing new evidence and insights for salt reduction intervention.
Methods:
From April to May 2024, 373 students from grades 4-9 at a boarding school in Guizhou Province were enrolled through stratified random cluster sampling, with one intervention class and one control class per grade. During the intervention period for one month, and the types of meals provided, pricing standards, and dining procedures shall remain consistent with daily operations, the intervention group ( n =181) compartmentalized trays for lunch and dinner, while the control group ( n =192) still used a rice bowl. Pre and post intervention assessments included 24 hour urine collection, questionnaire surveys, and physical measurements. The difference in differences analysis combined with multiple linear regression was used to analyze the changes in sodium intake and to evaluate the net effect of the intervention.
Results:
The post intervention 24 hour sodium intake in the intervention group was ( 2 222.6 ±1 013.6) mg, an increase of 94.6 mg from baseline, with no statistically significant difference ( t=1.10, P >0.05). In contrast, the post intervention 24 hour sodium intake in the control group was (2 080.5±895.7) mg, a decrease of 190.8 mg from baseline, showing a statistically significant difference ( t=-2.39, P <0.05). The difference in differences results indicated that after adjusting the model for factors such as gender, grade and dietary behaviors affecting sodium intake, the intervention group showed a net increase of 232.5 mg [ β(95%CI )=232.5(-40.3-505.2)] in 24 hour sodium intake compared to the control group, with no statistically significant net effect ( P >0.05).
Conclusions
Merely changing tableware is insufficient to control children s salt intake effectively. Based on continuous practical explorations and evidence based research grounded in the nudge theory, multi dimensional measures such as salt reduction education and the construction of a supportive environment should be integrated to form an intervention system that achieves synergistic and enhanced effects.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and cognitive function of 3 new antiepileptic drugs Oxcarbazepine (OXC), Lamotrigine (LTG) and Levetiracetam (LEV) in children with self-limited epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (SeLECTS).Methods:This was a prospective study.A total of 98 children with SeLECTS who were treated in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from January 2014 to June 2020 were divided into OXC group, LTG group and LEV group according to the applied therapeutic drugs.Video electroencephalograph (EEG), Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) and event-related potentials (ERPs) of the children were collected before treatment and 48 weeks of treatment.Clinical efficacy and impact on cognitive function among the 3 groups were compared.Results:(1)Efficacy: There was no significant difference in the effective rate of seizure reduction after treatment among the 3 groups( χ2=0.808, P=0.668). There was no significant difference in EEG remission rate among the 3 groups( χ2=0.763, P=0.683). (2)Cognitive function: ①Intragroup comparison of WISC findings showed that the full scale score (FIQ) and verbal intelligence quotient (VIQ) were significantly enhanced, and the scores of comprehension, vocabulary, arithmetic, decoding and spelling subtests were more significantly enhanced in OXC group after treatment (all P<0.05). In the LTG group, FIQ, VIQ and operational intelligence quotient (PIQ) were significantly enhanced after treatment (all P<0.05), and the subtest scores of comprehension, vocabulary, arithmetic, mapping and layout were significantly enhanced (all P<0.05). In LEV group, FIQ, VIQ and PIQ were significantly enhanced after treatment (all P<0.05), especially the increase in the VIQ, and the scores of vocabulary, understanding, similarity, arithmetic, decoding and puzzle subtests were significantly enhanced (all P<0.05). Pairwise comparison of WISC findings showed that there were no significant differences in the FIQ, VIQ, PIQ and subtest scores before treatment among the 3 groups (all P>0.05). After treatment, the arithmetic and decoding scores of OXC group were significantly higher than those of LTG group (all P<0.05), which were comparable between OXC group and LEV group (all P>0.05). The PIQ and the scores of mapping and layout in LTG group were significantly higher than those of the other 2 groups (all P<0.05). The LEV group had higher scores in vocabulary, comprehension and spelling than those of the other 2 groups (all P<0.05), which had higher decoding scores than those of the LTG group (all P<0.05). No significant differences were found in decoding scores between LEV and OXC group (all P>0.05). Higher VIQ and FIQ were detected in LEV group than those of the other 2 groups (all P<0.05). ②Intragroup comparison of ERPs showed that the latency of LEV group after treatment was significantly shorter than that before treatment ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the other 2 groups before and after treatment (all P>0.05). Pairwise comparison of ERPs showed that before treatment, there were no significant differences in P300 amplitude and latency among the 3 groups (all P>0.05). After treatment, the latency of LEV group was significantly shorter than that of the other 2 groups ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the amplitude between the 3 groups before and after treatment ( P>0.05). Conclusions:(1)In the treatment of SeLECTS in children, OXC, LTG and LEV have reliable and equivalent effects.(2)OXC, LTG and LEV have protective effects on cognitive function in children with SeLECTS.After treatment, LEV provides the strongest protective effect on FIQ, and the protective effect on VIQ is equivalent to OXC, but better than LTG.LTG is superior in protecting spatial perception and PIQ.

ObjectiveTo investigate the P300 evoked by Stroop Color Word Task in children with emotional neglect, and to explore their implication for inhibition control. MethodsA cluster sampling was conducted for the first grade students of a middle school in Sanmenxia City, Henan Province. The students from 3 classes were assessed by standard Raven reasoning test and Child Neglect Scale (CNS), and a total of 147 eligible students were screened out. Children were divided into the emotional neglect group (n=40) and the control group (n=40) according to the 27% before and after the score of CNS emotional neglect factor. Both groups completed the Stroop Color word task, and EEG data were collected to compare the response time, accuracy, amplitude and latency of P300 between the two groups. ResultsThe CNS total score and the scores of safety neglect, communication neglect, physical neglect and emotional neglect factors in the emotional neglect group were significantly higher than those in control group (t=15.003, 4.301, 11.495, 4.803, 23.957, P<0.01). The average reaction time in the incongruent task of emotional neglect group was significantly longer than that in the control group [(879.02±101.52) ms vs. (756.93±113.91) ms, t=5.061, P<0.01]. Under incongruent task, the average amplitude of P300 in emotional neglect group was lower than that of the control group [(3.97±1.12) μV vs. (8.71±1.24) μV, t=-17.976, P<0.01]. The average latency of P300 of emotional neglect group was longer than that of the control group [(361.81±39.69) ms vs. (301.35±33.67) ms, t=7.346, P<0.01]. ConclusionUnder incongruent task, children with emotional neglect had longer response time, longer latency and lower amplitude of P300, which suggested that children with affective neglect may have inhibition and control disorder.

Objective To investigate the effects of the multidisciplinary cooperative management intervention model on the self‐management efficacy of patients with ileostomy irritant dermatitis. Methods Among the patients with irritative dermatitis in the ileostomy section of the Anorectal Surgery and Ostomy Clinic of Hwamei Hospital, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, 72 patients, who visited the clinic from August 2016 to August 2018, met the inclusion criteria and were finally included in the study. According to the random number table method, 36 patients each were assigned to the control and observation groups respectively. There were no significant differences in age, sex and education between the two cohorts. The control groups were compared. The control group was treated with routine nursing methods. The observation group underwent multidisciplinary nursing intervention that was based on the routine measures of the control group. The Chinese version of the cancer self‐management efficacy was used as the questionnaire survey that was administered before and after treatment. The results were compared and analyzed between the patient groups. The independent sample t‐test was used to compare the results between the groups, and the paired sample t‐test was used for intra‐group comparisons. Results After intervention, the total scores of self‐management efficacy and positive attitude, self‐decompression and self‐decision scores were higher in the observation group than in the control group (t=4.192, 3.095, 4.123, 2.267, P<0.05). The scores of self‐administration efficacy and each dimension of the two groups were higher than those before intervention, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). After the intervention, 3 patients (10.0%) in the observation group with recurrent dermatitis and 13 patients (43.3%) in the control group. The recurrence rate of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (χ2= 8.357, P<0.05). Conclusion Multidisciplinary cooperative management can improve the self‐management efficacy of patients with irritating dermatitis and reduce the incidence of this condition.

Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy and compliance of domestic ketogenic diet(KD) for children with refractory epilepsy (RE),in order to provide the basis for further improving the curative effect and compliance by finding out the factors influencing efficacy and compliance. Methods The effect of KD on children with RE was investigated by systematically searching China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),China Science and Technology Journal Database(CSTJ),Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform and PubMed database from January 1, 1989 to January 17,2018. The relevant literature R3. 0. 2 software was used to combine the retention rate and therapeu-tic effect in different periods,based on the systematic analysis of the therapeutic efficacy and compliance literature. Results A total of 11 eligible documents were included. (1)The methodological index for non - randomized studies (MINORS)scores of included literature were rated from 10 to 18 points. (2)A secondary analysis of 9 literatures on the description of the subject′s composition showed that the proportion of male to female in children with RE ranged from 1. 441. 00 to 2. 731. 00,and that of 9 literatures included a total of 331 samples,there were 212 male and 119 female,the ratio of male to female was 1. 781. 00. (3)The sources of the included literatures were from Beijing, Shanghai,Changsha,Shenzhen,Nanchang,Zhengzhou,Suzhou,Chongqing,Shenyang and Xi′an. (4)The retention rates of 1 month(5 studies),3 months(10 studies),6 months(7 studies)and 12 months (6 studies)were respectively 93% [95% confidence interval (CI):88% - 98%],80% (95% CI:71% - 98%),70% (95% CI:61% - 78%) and 54% (95% CI:37% - 71%). (5)According to the Meta - analysis,the effective rate of 1 month(6 studies), 3 months(10 studies),6 months(7 studies)and 12 months (7 studies)were respectively 57% (95% CI:34% -79%),68% (95% CI:57% - 79%),76% (95% CI:62% - 89%)and 80% (95% CI:68% - 93%). (6)Through analyzing the adverse reactions and the causes of termination,the literature showed that common adverse reactions in-volved digestive system (72 cases),infection (23 cases),urinary calculus (4 cases),and the metabolic disorder. The reason of treatment termination was that the children were not cooperative (26 cases)and the parents had poor comp-liance (24 cases). Conclusion KD is one of the effective methods for treating RE in children. Reducing or relieving adverse reactions in KD to improve the treatment compliance of children with RE and their families is a subject worthy of further study and attention.

We constructed recombinant adenoviruses expressing miR-29b2c (Ad-miR29b2c), and analyzed their effects on the proliferation and migration of HGC-27 and MGC-803 cells. miR-29b2c gene was amplified by PCR from genomic DNA and cloned into the pAdTrack-CMV vector to create the shuttle plasmid pAdT-29b2c. The recombinant plasmid was verified by restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing. The linearized shuttle vector was mixed with an adenoviral backbone plasmid (pAdEasy-1), followed by cotransformation into competent BJ5183 cells to generate the recombinant plasmid pAd-miR-29b2c. Finally, recombinant adenoviral vectors were generated by transfecting the recombinant plasmid into 293A packaging cell line. HGC-27 and MGC-803 cells were infected with the recombinant adenoviruses expressing pAd-miR-29b2c, then MTT and wound-healing assay were used to analyze the effects of pAd-miR-29b2c on the proliferation and migration of HGC-27 and MGC-803 cells. The miR-29b and miR-29c levels were significantly increased in HGC-27 cells after infected with pAd-miR-29b2c. MTT and wound-healing analysis also revealed a significant decrease in proliferation and migration of HGC-27 and MGC-803 cells compared to the control Ad-GFP-infected cells. Furthermore, western blotting results demonstrated that the protein expression level of δ-catenin was reduced in pAd-miR-29b2c transfected HGC-27 and MGC-803 cells. Taken together, the recombinant adenoviral vector was generated, and it can significantly inhibit the proliferation and migration of HGC-27 and MGC-803 cells.
