1.Expert recommendations on vision friendly built environments for myopia prevention and control in children and adolescents
Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(1):1-5
Abstract
The prevention and control of myopia in Chinese children and adolescents has become a major public health issue. While maintaining increased outdoor activity as a cornerstone intervention, there is an urgent need to explore new complementary approaches that can be effectively implemented in both indoor and outdoor settings. In recent years, environmental spatial frequency has gained increasing attention as one of the key environmental factors influencing the development and progression of myopia. Both animal studies and human research have confirmed that indoor environments lacking mid to high spatial frequency components, often characterized as "visually impoverished", can promote axial elongation and myopia through mechanisms such as disruption of retinal neural signaling, impaired accommodative function, and altered expression of related molecules. Based on the scientific consensus, it is recommended that "enriching of environmental spatial frequency" should be integrated into the myopia prevention and control framework. Following the principles of schoolled organization, family cooperation, community involvement, and student participation, specific measures are put forward in three areas:optimizing school visual settings, improving home spatial environments, and promoting healthy visual behavior. The aim is to create "visually friendly" indoor environments as an important supplement to outdoor activity, thereby providing a novel perspective and strategy for comprehensively advancing myopia prevention and control among children and adolescents.

Objective To gain insights into the biological characteristics of different populations of Culex tritaeniorhynchus within and around the Yellow Sea wetland from the perspective of the occurrence of resistance, we investigated the levels of resistance to deltamethrin and kdr gene mutation in the wetland and its peripheral areas. Methods Specimens were collected from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations at two monitoring sites in the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area, and also from two populations in Yancheng City and the Liuhe District of Nanjing, and the resistance of these mosquitoes to deltamethrin was determined using the CDC biotest bottle method. For each concentration of deltamethrin assessed, a random subset of exposed specimens was selected for amplification of the kdr gene fragment, followed by Sanger sequencing to identify and analyze resistance-associated mutations. Results The LC50 levels of deltamethrin among mosquitoes from the four populations in Luhe, Yancheng, the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and the Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area were 2.048 5, 7.798 2, 3.473 3, and 17.695 5 mg/mL, respectively, with corresponding concentrations of deltamethrin ranging from 0.005 to 5.000,0.050 to 50.000,0.050 to 25.000 and 0.050 to 50.000 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges of the KT50 values were 11.76-107.43, 67.05-216.30,29.77-107.43 and 28.40-329.51 min; the 1-h knockdown rates were 34.58%-99.15%, 9.52%-43.80%, 55.09%-73.01%, and 10.09%-68.07%; and the 24-h mortality rates were 12.15%-67.52%,9.52%-79.56%,13.17%-82.21%, and 11.01%-78.99%, respectively. With respect to kdr gene mutation, we assayed a total of 63,70,59, and 57 mosquitoes for the four populations, for which we detected L1014F mutation frequencies of 14.29%, 35.00%, 20.34%, and 31.58%, respectively, with a majority of these mutations being heterozygous for resistance. In addition, five adult mosquitoes were identified has having synonymous mutations at site 1011[i. e. , AAT(asparagine)mutation to AAC(asparagine)]. Conclusions Our findings revealed the clear resistance of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus to deltamethrin in the Yancheng region of the Yellow Sea wetland, and the resistance phenotype and kdr frequency of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment were comparable to those of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment, thereby indicating that the resistance of different populations of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was homogeneous under the pressure of different insecticide selection within and around the wetland. However, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(7):926-928
Objective:
To investigate the relationship between night-time noise exposure and depressive symptoms among junior and senior high school students, so as to provide evidence to support strategies for promoting their physical and mental health.
Methods:
From September 2024 to December 2025, 2 900 junior and senior high school students were selected using stratified cluster random sampling in the three cities of Nanning, Lhasa, and Yanji. The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) was used to assess depressive symptoms in junior and senior high school students, and a noise exposure survey was conducted. Chi-square test was used to compare the prevalence of depressive symptoms among junior and senior high school students with different types of night-time noise exposure, and Logistic regression models were employed to examine the association between night-time noise exposure and depressive symptoms among junior and senior high school students.
Results:
The prevalence of depressive symptoms among junior and senior high school students without night-time noise exposure was 33.0%, while that among junior and senior high school students with night-time noise exposure was 49.0%; the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2= 45.85 , P <0.01) . After adjusting for gender, age and region, Logistic regression analysis showed that exposure to night-time traffic noise, neighborhood noise, air conditioner noise, and other types of noise showed increased risk of detecting depressive symptoms in junior and senior high school students ( OR =2.22, 1.84, 2.41, 2.17, all P <0.05).
Conclusion
Night-time noise exposure is associated with an increased risk of depressive symptoms among junior and senior high school students.

Objective:To investigate the association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and 24-h urinary calcium excretion (24-h UCaE) and hypercalciuria in Chinese adults.Methods:This cross-sectional study was conducted from March 2022 to March 2023 in nine cities in China and included 1 239 residents. Demographic characteristics were collected through questionnaires and physical examinations, fasting blood samples were assessed for bone metabolism indicators, and 24-h urine samples were used to determine the 24-h UCaE. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between serum 25(OH)D and 24-h UCaE and bone metabolism indexes. The relationship between serum 25(OH)D and hypercalciuria was analyzed using a multiple logistic regression model combined with restricted cubic spline modeling.Results:The mean participant age was (47.9±18.1) years, of which 453 (36.6%) were male. The percentages of vitamin D sufficiency, insufficiency, and deficiency were 7.6% (94/1 239), 29.0% (359/1 239), and 63.4% (786/1 239), respectively. The multiple linear regression model showed that after adjusting for the covariates the 24-h UCaE gradually increased with higher levels of 25(OH)D ( P overall <0.001, P nonlinear <0.001). The logistic regression analysis revealed that compared with the vitamin D deficient group, the OR for the prevalence of hypercalciuria in the vitamin D sufficient and vitamin D insufficient groups were 3.290 (95% CI 1.745 to 6.202) and 3.742 (95% CI 2.458 to 5.697), respectively. The results of the restricted cubic spline modeling showed a positive nonlinear relationship between 25(OH)D and the prevalence of hypercalciuria ( P overall <0.001, P nonlinear <0.001). The prevalence of hypercalciuria increased when 25(OH)D was >17.00 μg/L and peaked at 26.71 μg/L, after which there was a decreasing trend in the prevalence of hypercalciuria with increasing 25(OH)D. Conclusion:Associations between serum 25(OH)D levels and urinary calcium excretion and the prevalence of hypercalciuria were observed in the Chinese adult population.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Chi-BEAM regimen (chidamide combined with carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with high-risk or relapsed/refractory lymphoma.Methods:This retrospective case series included 78 patients with newly treated high-risk or relapsed/refractory lymphoma who underwent ASCT with the Chi-BEAM conditioning regimen in the Department of Hematology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University (Jiangsu Province Hospital), from June 2021 to May 2024. Descriptive statistics were employed to evaluate clinical characteristics, efficacy, and adverse events. The Kaplan-Meier method was applied to calculate cumulative progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates.Results:The median age of the 78 evaluable patients was 47 years (range 16-68), with 8 patients (10.3%) aged ≥60 years. At the first post-transplant assessment (3 months), the objective response rate was 94.9% (74/78). The median follow-up was 20.1 months (range 2.9-44.9). The median PFS time was 20.1 months (range 1.6-45.1), with a 2-year cumulative PFS rate of 81.8%. The median OS time was 20.6 months (range 3.1-45.1), with a cumulative 2-year OS rate of 93.2%. The regimen was well-tolerated; mild-to-moderate hypocalcemia within 1 week post-infusion and transient mild erythrocyturia on the infusion day were the primary adverse reactions.Conclusion:The Chi-BEAM regimen combined with ASCT demonstrates both safety and clinical benefit in patients with high-risk or relapsed/refractory lymphoma.

Aim To explore the relation between the protective effect of hyperoside(Hyp)on energy metab-olism and apoptosis in cardiomyocytes after myocardial infarction(MI)and the regulation of peroxisome pro-life rator-activated receptor α(PPARα)pathway.Methods Mouse myocardial infarction injury model was established by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery.The mice that were successfully liga-ted were randomly divided into the following groups:MI group,Hyp(9,18 and 36 mg·kg-1)group,posi-tive fenofibrate group(120 mg·kg-1)and Hyp(36 mg·kg-1)+PPARα inhibitor GW6471 group.In addition,a sham group was set up,only threading with-out ligature.The mice were administered different kinds of drugs by gavage for seven days,once daily.ECG changes were recorded in mice 5 min before,5 min after surgery,and 1 hour after day 7 using the BL-420F biofunction system.The diagnostic ultrasound in-strument was used to examine the heart structure and function of each group of mice.The influence of myo-cardial histology was observed by hematoxylin and eo-sin (HE) staining and Sirius red(Sirius Red)stai-ning.The changes of creatine kinase isozymin-MB(CK-MB),cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnⅠ)and lactate de-hydrogenase(LDH)in mouse serum were assessed by ELISA kit.The expressions of PPARα signaling related proteins and apoptosis-related proteins were detected by immunofluorescence and Western blot.Results Compared with MI mice,Hyp could significantly im-prove the ECG abnormality of MI mice,increase the left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and left ventricu-lar short axis shortening rate(LVFS),reduce serum cTnⅠ content,CK-MB and LDH activity,and reduce myocardial fibrosis,infarct area and cardiomyocyte ap-optosis in the MI area.Meanwhile,this research found that Hyp could activate PPARα signaling pathway and regulate apoptosis-related proteins.However,the car-dioprotective effect of hyperoside was reversed by the combination with the treatment of the PPARα signaling inhibitor,GW6471.Conclusions Hyp has an impro-ving effect on energy metabolism and apoptosis in mice after MI,and the mechanism may be related to its acti-vation of PPARα signaling pathway.
