2.Association between maternal lipids during pregnancy and risk of offspring s overweight and obesity at 3 years of age
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(8):1074-1078
Objective:
To explore the association between maternal lipid levels during pregnancy and the risk of overweight and obesity in offspring at 3 years of age, providing scientific evidences for the prevention and control of childhood obesity.
Methods:
A total of 2 432 mother-child pairs with maternal lipid tests during pregnancy and offspring s physical growth data at 3 years of age were included from the Borin in Guangzhou Cohort Study up to September 2021. Lipid indicators, including high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C), triglycerides (TG), and total cholesterol (TC), were measured at 13-19 +6 weeks (mid pregnancy) and 32-39 +6 weeks (late pregnancy). Children s body mass index (BMI) Z score were calculated according to the World Health Organization s growth standards for children under 5 years old. The lipid Z score were divided into four quartiles: Q 1, Q 2, Q 3 and Q 4. Linear regression was used to analyze the relationship between maternal lipid levels during pregnancy and offspring’s BMI Z score at 3 years of age. Poisson regression with a robust error variance was employed to evaluate the association between maternal lipid levels during pregnancy and the at risk of overweight and obesity in offspring at 3 years of age, after adjusting for maternal age at conception, education level, parity, pre pregnancy BMI and gestational diabetes mellitus.
Results:
There was a statistically significnt difference in the detection rate of overweight and obesity risk among children with different mothers s pre pregnancy BMI ( χ 2=22.85, P <0.05). Linear regression analysis showed that TG levels in late pregnancy were positively related to BMI Z score ( β=0.10, 95%CI=0.02-0.18, P <0.05). Poisson regression with a robust error variance indicated that, compared with the Q 1 group of TC, the Q 4 group of TC in mid pregnancy was associated with an increased risk of overweight and obesity in offspring at 3 years of age ( RR=1.59, 95%CI =1.04-2.44); compared with the Q 1 group of TG, the Q 4 group of TG during late pregnancy increased the risk of overweight and obesity in offspring at 3 years of age ( RR=1.79, 95%CI =1.02-3.12) (both P <0.05).
Conclusions
Maternal serum TC level during mid pregnancy can increase the risk of overweight and obesity in offspring at 3 years of age. Maternal serum TG levels during late pregnancy is positively correlated with BMI and the risk of overweight and obesity in offspring at 3 years of age.

Objective To explore the epidemiological characteristics of mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection in hospitalized children between 2019 and 2022, and to provide a basis for the prevention and treatment of the disease in the clinic. Methods Blood samples of 12 830 children hospitalized for respiratory tract infection in our hospital between January 2019 and December 2022 were collected, and tested for MP infection, then the prevalence of MP infection in different years, seasons, genders and ages was analyzed. Results The total positive rate of MP was 16.55% (2 123 / 12 830). The annual prevalence rate of MP infection decreased from 17.97% in 2019 to 16.48% in 2022, with statistical difference (P<0.05). In terms of gender, the prevalence of MP infection was higher in females at a rate of 19.38% (1 198 / 6 182) compared with a rate of 13.91% (925 / 6 648) in males, with statistical difference (χ2=69.277, P<0.05).The positive rates in summer (19.84%) and autumn (19.57%) were higher than those in spring (12.97%) and winter (12.38%) (P<0.05) In terms of age, the positive rate of MP infection was 9.68% in < 1 age group, 12.95% in 1-3 age group, 18.23% in 4-6 age group and 23.23% in > 6 age group (P<0.05), with the highest positive rate in > 6 age group. The positive rate of MP infection was 15.49% in acute upper respiratory tract infection , 17.28% in acute lower respiratory tract infection , 16.43% in severe pneumonia, and 16.71% in other diseases, with no statistical difference (P>0.05). Conclusion MP is one of the main pathogens of respiratory infections in hospitalized children. Despite the decreasing trend in MP infection rate in hospitalized children between 2019 and 2022, it remains above the norm. MP infection is characterized by a high prevalence in summer and autumn, children >6 years of age, and girls, so effective measures should be taken to guide clinical anti-infection strategies to improve the physical and mental health of children in this region.

Lymphatic metastasis is the main metastatic route for colorectal cancer, which increases the risk of cancer recurrence and distant metastasis. The properties of the lymph node metastatic colorectal cancer (LNM-CRC) cells are poorly understood, and effective therapies are still lacking. Here, we found that hypoxia-induced fibroblast activation protein alpha (FAPα) expression in LNM-CRC cells. Gain- or loss-function experiments demonstrated that FAPα enhanced tumor cell migration, invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, stemness, and lymphangiogenesis via activation of the STAT3 pathway. In addition, FAPα in tumor cells induced extracellular matrix remodeling and established an immunosuppressive environment via recruiting regulatory T cells, to promote colorectal cancer lymph node metastasis (CRCLNM). Z-GP-DAVLBH, a FAPα-activated prodrug, inhibited CRCLNM by targeting FAPα-positive LNM-CRC cells. Our study highlights the role of FAPα in tumor cells in CRCLNM and provides a potential therapeutic target and promising strategy for CRCLNM.
