Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(3):315-320
Objective:
To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs.
Methods:
Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test.
Results:
From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students.
Conclusion
Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.

BACKGROUND:
Diabetic wound healing remains a major challenge due to the impaired functionality of angiogenesis by persistent hyperglycemia. Mesenchymal stem cell exosomes are appropriate candidates for regulating the formation of angiogenesis in tissue repair and regeneration. Here, we explored the effects of exosomes derived from human amniotic mesenchymal stem cell (hAMSC-Exos) on the biological activities of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) treated with high glucose and on diabetic wound healing and investigate lncRNAs related to angiogenesis in hAMSC-Exos.
METHODS:
hAMSCs and hAMSC-Exos were isolated and identified by flow cytometry or western blot. A series of functional assays such as cell counting kit-8, scratching, transwell and tube formation assays were performed to evaluate the potential effect of hAMSC-Exos on high glucose-treated HUVECs. The effect of hAMSC-Exos on diabetic wound healing were tested by measuring wound closure rates and immunohistochemical staining of CD31. Subsequently, the lncRNAs profiles in hAMSC-Exos and hAMSCs were examined to screen the lncRNAs related to angiogenesis.
RESULTS:
The isolated hAMSC-Exos had a size range of 30–150 nm and were positive for CD9, CD63 and CD81. The hAMSC-Exos facilitate the functional properties of high glucose-treated HUVECs including the proliferation, migration and the angiogenic activities as well as wound closure and angiogenesis in diabetic wound. hAMSC-Exos were enriched lncRNAs that related to angiogenesis, including PANTR1, H19, OIP5-AS1 and NR2F1-AS1.
CONCLUSION
Our findings demonstrated hAMSC-Exos facilitate diabetic wound healing by angiogenesis and contain several exosomal lncRNAs related to angiogenesis, which may represent a promising strategy for diabetic wound healing.

Objective:To explore the characteristics and differences of oxygenated hemoglobin responses in different brain regions in adolescent depressive disorder patients and healthy adolescents during speech fluency task based on functional near-infrared spectroscopy imaging.Methods:From March 2021 to June 2021, twenty-nine adolescents with depression(depressed group) and 26 healthy adolescents(normal group) were enrolled. The severity of depression was assessed by Hamilton depression scale, and the speech fluency task was performed by functional near-infrared spectroscopy brain imaging, and the relative concentrations of oxyhemoglobin in the prefrontal and bilateral temporal lobes were measured.SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for data analysis, chi-square test was used for gender count data. The t-test was used for comparison of two groups. The measurement data that did not conform to normal distribution were compared between the two groups by Mann-Whitney U test. Results:In the speech fluency task, there was no significant difference in the concentration of oxygenated hemoglobin in prefrontal and left temporal between the depressed group and the normal group (both P>0.05); the oxygenated hemoglobin concentration in the right temporal lobe(-9.179(-22.231, 4.789)) of depressed group was significantly lower than that of the normal group (12.754(-9.438, 35.008)), and the difference was statistically significant ( U=538.00, P<0.05). The oxygenated hemoglobin concentration in right temporal lobe of depressed group had no correlation with the score of Hamilton depression rating scale ( r=0.092, P>0.05). Conclusion:The right temporal lobe function of adolescent depression patients is lower than that of healthy controls during speech fluency tasks, which provides a basis for study of the relationship between depression and some cognitive sensitivity impairment and the function of right temporal lobe.

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common malignant tumor in China. Radiotherapy is the first-line treatment. After appropriate radiotherapy, about 5%-15% patients experience recurrence. In view of the poor efficacy and high incidence of severe late toxicities associated with re-irradiation, salvage surgery by the transnasal endoscopic approach is recommended for recurrent NPC (rNPC). Compared with re-irradiation, endoscopic surgery can better prolong survival, improve the quality of life, and reduce complications and medical expenses of patients with rNPC. However, the complexity of the nasopharyngeal skull base enhances the difficulty and risk of surgery. Expanding the boundary of surgical resection remains a clinical challenge for otolaryngologists. In this regard, to help more advanced patients with rNPC, the surgical innovative system of NPC needs to be established by multi-disciplinary cooperation, involving skull base anatomy-based investigation, appropriate administration of the internal carotid artery (ICA), repair of skull base defect, and establishment of various types of endoscopic endonasal nasopharyngectomy.

Objective:To observe the recovery of exercise tolerance among stroke survivors using the cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) and analyze the factors influencing it.Methods:A total of 81 stroke survivors hospitalized in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of our hospital in year 2018 and 2019 were selected. The general clinical data of all patients were collected retrospectively and combined with the data from CPET to establish a data set. Version 25.0 of the SPSS software was used for multiple linear regressions analysis, with the peak oxygen uptake as the dependent variable, and the age, Brunnstrom stage, peak power, peak heart rate, peak respiratory exchange ratio, peak breathing reserve, peak ventilation per minute, the slope of the VE-VCO 2 curve (ΔVE/ΔVCO 2) and peak end tidal partial pressure of carbon dioxide as independent variables. Results:Stroke survivors at Brunnstrom stage III Ⅲ, Ⅳ and Ⅴ or higher decreased sequentially with their age, but their peak oxygen uptake increased gradually. The multiple linear regression model constructed by " stepwise method" showed that the fitted multiple linear regression equation was statistically significant ( F=100.228, P<0.001). Moreover, the average peak power, peak heart rate, peak ventilation per minute and the slope of the VE-VCO 2 curve were all found to be significant independent predictors of peak oxygen uptake in these stroke survivors. Conclusions:Skeletal muscle power, cardiac function, pulmonary ventilation and ventilation efficiency are useful independent predictors of the exercise tolerance of stroke survivors.
