Objective: To investigate the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents in Yangzhou City, and its association with screen behaviors, so as to provide scientific evidence for weight management among students. Methods: In May 2025, an electronic questionnaire survey was conducted among children and adolescents in Yangzhou City. A total of 3 722 participants were selected from grades 4 to 12 in 18 primary and secondary schools (108 classes) by using stratified cluster random sampling. The Chi square test was used to compare the differences in the detection rates of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents with 5 types of screen behaviors (watching TV, playing electronic games, scrolling short videos, screen based learning, electronic socializing) in different time groups each day (never, >0~<2 h, ≥2 h). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the associations of five types of screen behaviors, presence of electronic devices in the bedroom, and screen use during meals on the weight status of children and adolescents. Results: The prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents was 37.3%. For all five types of screen behaviors, the differences in the distribution of overweight and obesity detection rates among children and adolescents across the three time spent categories were statistically significant ( χ 2=30.76- 70.78 , all P <0.01). After adjusting for confounding factors, multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that frequent or always using screens during meals( OR =1.63, 95％ CI =1.14~2.31), playing video games ( OR =1.28, 95% CI =1.11-1.48), browsing short videos ( OR =1.29, 95％ CI=1.09-1.54), and screen based learning ( OR =1.26, 95％ CI =1.10-1.44) were significantly associated with overweight and obesity among children and adolescents (all P <0.05). Conclusions Excessive screen use is positively correlated with the incidence of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents. Targeted interventions on screen behaviors among children and adolescents are therefore warranted.

Objective: To explore the association between takeout fast foods and sugar sweetened beverage consumption with co-occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province, so as to provide theoretical basis for the prevention of anxiety and depressive symptoms co-occurrence among adolescents. Methods: A random cluster sampling involving 8 500 first year junior high school students in 11 counties in Yunnan Province was conducted by a questionnaire survey from October to December 2022. The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) was applied to assess anxiety and depressive symptoms in first year junior high school students. Chi-square test was used to compare the anxiety-depression co-occurrence symptoms of first year junior high school students with different demographic characteristics. The association between takeout fast foods and sugar sweetened beverage consumption with co-occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms of adolescents was analyzed by binary Logistic regression models. Results: The detection rate of co-occurrence of anxiety and depression symptoms among first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province was 26.92%. After controlling for demographic variables and other confounders, takeout fast foods and sugar sweetened beverage consumption( OR=1.50, 95%CI =1.27-1.77) was associated with anxiety-depression co-occurrence symptoms among first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province ( P <0.01). Stratified analysis showed that both Han ( OR=1.37, 95%CI =1.07-1.77) and ethnic minorities ( OR=1.60, 95%CI =1.29-2.00) exhibited statistically significant associations between takeout fast foods and sugar sweetened beverage consumption with co-occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms(both P <0.05). Conclusions Takeout fast foods and sugar sweetened beverage consumption increases the risk of co-occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province. It is recommended to strengthen guidance on the consumption of such products among junior high school students to prevent co-occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Objective: To explore the effects of personality and sleep quality with psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents, so as to provide a reference basis for precise interventions of junior and senior high school students mental health. Methods: In October 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 9 034 students aged 12-17 from Shiyan City as the study subjects. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to collect information on sleep quality and psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Between group comparison was conducted by using t-test and Chi-square test. Generalized linear models were employed to analyze the interaction and joint effects of personality and sleep quality on psychological distress. Results: The generalized linear model analysis showed that the interaction between personality and sleep quality on psychological distress was statistically significant of junior and senior high school students(effect size=0.80, P <0.01). The general linear model analysis indicated that, after adjusting for variables such as age, gender, screen time, and daily sitting time with the extroverted and good sleep quality group as the reference, the introverted and poor sleep quality group had the largest mean difference in psychological distress scores (difference=0.51, P <0.05). When stratified by sleep quality, psychological distress scores were higher in the introverted and neutral personality groups with both poor and good sleep quality compared to the extroverted group (poor sleep quality: introverted difference=3.71, neutral difference=1.14; good sleep quality: introverted difference=2.23, neutral difference=0.57, all P < 0.05). When stratified by personality, psychological distress scores were higher in the poor sleep quality groups for introverted, neutral, and extroverted individuals compared to their good sleep quality counterparts (differences=8.66, 7.83, 7.34, all P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Personality and sleep quality have interactive and joint effects on psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Personalized psychological interventions should be developed based on personality and sleep quality.

Lung cancer is one of the most lethal cancers, and the overall survival rate of lung cancer patients is very low. With the increasing research on lung cancer, the critical role of intestinal flora in lung cancer treatment has been gradually discovered. Among the various therapeutic approaches targeting the intestinal flora, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is considered as a potential strategy to treat lung cancer by interfering with the homeostasis of the intestinal flora. FMT can improve the efficacy of lung cancer treatment and attenuate the side effects associated with immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy by remodeling the microbial composition, modulating the metabolites, and activating immune responses. The aim of this paper is to discuss the current status and potential mechanisms of FMT in lung cancer treatment, and to provide a new strategy for regulating the intestinal flora to enhance the prevention and treatment of lung cancer.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of imported malaria cases in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from 2017 to 2024, so as to formulate the targeted control strategies for imported malaria. Methods The demographic and epidemiological data of malaria cases reported in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from 2017 to 2024 were collected through the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The source of malaria cases acquiring infections, composition of malaria parasite species, regional distribution of malaria cases, population characteristics of malaria cases, temporal distribution of malaria cases, time of diagnosis, deaths and institutions reporting malaria cases were statistically analyzed with a descriptive statistical method. Results A total of 1 308 malaria cases were reported in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from 2017 to 2024, and all cases were overseas imported cases, with no secondary cases identified. Plasmodium falciparum malaria (57.11%, 747/1 308) and P. ovale malaria (27.68%, 362/1 308) were two most common forms of malaria, and three deaths occurred among P. falciparum malaria cases. The number of malaria cases appeared an overall tendency towards a decline from 2017 to 2022, followed by a rise after 2023. The malaria cases predominantly acquired infections from Africa (1 284 cases, accounting for 98.17%), with Ghana (432 cases, accounting for 33.03%) and Cameroon (145 cases, accounting for 11.09%) as two most frequent origin countries, and P. falciparum malaria (58.02%, 745/1 284) was the predominant form of malaria among African imported malaria cases; however, P. vivax malaria cases comprised 89.58% (86/96) of all malaria cases derived from Ethiopia. In terms of regional distribution, malaria cases were highly concentrated in Nanning City (1 075 cases, accounting for 82.19%), with the most prominent situated in Shanglin County (903 cases, accounting for 69.04%), and these cases were predominantly found among individuals at ages of 20 to 59 years (1 280 cases, accounting for 97.86%), males (1 265 cases, accounting for 96.71%), and gold/coal mining workers (1 042 cases, accounting for 79.66%). In terms of temporal distribution, malaria cases were reported throughout the year, with the peak incidence in April (146 cases, accounting for 11.16%). The median duration from onset of disease to initial diagnosis was 1 (interquartile range, 2) day, and the median duration from initial diagnosis to definitive diagnosis was 1 (interquartile range, 1) day. Malaria cases were predominantly reported by medical institutions (1 075 cases, accounting for 82.19%), and the proportion of malaria cases reported by medical institutions increased from 75.92% in 2017 to 96.27% in 2024, while the proportion of malaria cases reported by disease control and prevention institutions reduced from 24.08% in 2017 to 3.73% in 2024. There was a significant difference in the proportion of malaria cases reported by medical institutions and disease control and prevention institutions from 2017 to 2024 (both P < 0.001). The 3 dead imported P. falciparum malaria cases predominantly received initial diagnosis at townshipand lower-level institutions (66.67%, 2/3), with 1 (interquartile range, 2) day median duration from onset of disease to initial diagnosis, 2 (interquartile range, 4) days median duration from initial diagnosis to definitive diagnosis, and 1 (interquartile range, 19) day median duration from definitive diagnosis to death. Conclusions Imported P. falciparum malaria from Africa is predominant among malaria cases in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and malaria cases are highly concentrated in specific regions and among specific occupational groups. It is recommended to strengthen inter-departmental collaboration, implement refined management among labors going to Africa, improve the integration of medical treatment and disease prevention, and enhance the diagnosis and treatment of severe malaria cases.

ObjectiveTo systematically retrieve， analyze， and summarize the basic information and clinical research evidence of Chinese patent medicines （CPMs） for endometriosis via a scoping review method. MethodsCPMs indicated for EM were identified from three major drug lists， CNKI， clinical guidelines， and textbooks. Relevant clinical studies were retrieved from eight Chinese and English databases from inception to April 1， 2025. Key data from included studies were extracted to analyze characteristics of CPMs and their clinical evidence. ResultsA total of 18 CPMs were included， among which those with blood-activating and stasis-resolving effects accounted for the highest proportion. Constituent herbs predominantly exhibited sweet， bitter， and pungent flavors， with tropism to the liver and spleen meridians. Daily treatment costs varied substantially across CPMs. The 438 included studies involved 13 CPMs， among which Guizhi Fuling capsules/pills， Sanjie Zhentong capsules， and Dan'e Fukang soft extract/granules were the most extensively studied. Randomized controlled trials （RCTs） were the predominant study design. The most common comparison was between CPMs combined with Western medicine and Western medicine alone. The largest number of studies reported a sample size of 51-100 cases. The high-frequency outcome indicators covered 10 domains， including clinical response rate， adverse reactions， female hormone levels， serum CA125 levels， and recurrence status. ConclusionMultiple oral CPMs demonstrate efficacy in EM management， yet inadequate safety profiles persist in drug labeling. The annual number of clinical studies on oral CPMs for endometriosis showed an overall increasing trend. However， clinical research has shortcomings including uneven distribution of CPMs， small sample sizes， and suboptimal methodological rigor. Future efforts should focus on updating drug indications and safety information in package inserts， conducting high-quality clinical research， and generating more robust evidence to support the clinical use of oral CPMs for EM.

Objective To systematically analyze the trend of incidence, mortality and disease burden of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in China from 1994 to 2023, reveal the influence of age-period-cohort factors on COPD in China and the attribution characteristics of risk factors, and provide empirical basis for formulating precise prevention and control strategies. Methods The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2023 database was used to extract the data of the whole population, gender and age groups of COPD in China from 1994 to 2023. The Joinpoint regression model was used to calculate the annual percentage change (APC) and average annual percentage change (AAPC) of the standardized rate. The age-period-cohort model was adopted to quantify its impacts on the incidence and mortality of COPD. It also analyzed the attributable effects as well as temporal trend characteristics of seven GBD level-3 risk factors (including smoking, ambient particulate matter pollution, occupational exposure, etc.) in Chinese population in 1994 and 2023 on the standardized mortality rate and standardized disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) rate of COPD. Results From 1994 to 2023, the incidence and mortality of COPD in China showed an upward trend, but the standardized incidence [AAPC=−1.16%, 95%CI (−1.18, −1.14), P<0.001] and standardized mortality [AAPC=−2.87%, 95%CI (−3.02, −2.73), P<0.001] decreased significantly, and the decline rate of standardized incidence in females (AAPC=−1.29%) was slightly higher than that in males (AAPC=−1.04%). The decline rate of standardized mortality in males (AAPC=−3.65%) was higher than that in females (AAPC=−1.94%). The age-period-cohort model revealed a nonlinear increase in the age effect, a graded decline in the cohort effect, and a significant period effect on mortality and male morbidity (P<0.001). In terms of attribution of risk factors, the top three attribution risks of the whole population in 2023 were still smoking, particulate matter pollution and second-hand smoke. Compared with 1994, the attribution of environmental ozone pollution, second-hand smoke, high temperature, smoking and occupational particulate matter/gas/smoke exposure increased, and the attribution of particulate matter pollution decreased. Conclusion From 1994 to 2023, the overall disease burden of COPD in China shows a downward trend. Age and cohort are the core driving factors of the disease, and period factors have a more significant impact on death. The changes in the attribution structure suggest that while consolidating the effectiveness of particulate matter pollution control, it is necessary to strengthen the comprehensive prevention and control strategies of tobacco control, coordinated emission reduction of ozone and multiple pollutants, extreme temperature protection and protection of key occupational groups, so as to continuously reduce the disease burden of COPD.

ObjectiveTo interpret the main contents of the Expert Consensus on Clinical Application of Yifei Zhike Capsules （hereinafter referred to as the Consensus）， analyze its evidence basis， and explore future research directions， thus providing a reference for rational drug use in clinical practice. MethodsThe core contents of the Consensus are summarized. Focusing on clinical issues， this paper summarizes the recommendations and consensus suggestions in the Consensus and explains them from aspects such as indications， key advantages， usage and dosage， combined medication， contraindications， precautions， and safety. ResultsThe Consensus clearly states that Yifei Zhike capsules can be used for acute or chronic bronchitis， pulmonary tuberculosis and other respiratory system diseases. It for the first time proposes that the applicable TCM syndrome of Yifei Zhike capsules is Qi-Yin deficiency together with combined phlegm and stasis. For different diseases， the Consensus provides specific usage instructions， dosage， and treatment course recommendations， supplementing the contents not covered in the drug instructions. In terms of combined medication， the Consensus emphasizes the principle of using this drug in combination with standardized chemotherapy regimens or conventional Western medicines and the applicability for the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis and moderate to severe acute or chronic bronchitis. In terms of safety， the Consensus proposes methods for identifying common adverse reactions， drug contraindications， and precautions based on a review of the existing data and preliminarily builds a risk management framework. However， the evidence on which the Consensus is based are mostly early studies， with small sample sizes， which result in the low evidence grades （mainly C and D） of some recommendations. ConclusionThe Consensus provides specific guidance for the clinical use of Yifei Zhike capsules. However， due to the limited quality of the existing research evidence， more high-quality clinical studies are needed in the future to further verify its efficacy， safety， and explore its broader application prospects.

OBJECTIVE To construct a pharmaceutical care framework suitable for elderly individuals in nursing homes， so as to provide standardized content guidance for relevant practice. METHODS The initial items of pharmaceutical care content in n ursing homes were drafted through literature research and semi-structured interviews. Delphi method was used to conduct correspondence consultation among 38 experts from related fields in Xinjiang. The expert positive coefficient， authority coefficient， and Kendall’s W were calculated， and the analytic hierarchy process was employed to determine the weight of each item. After thorough discussion among the research team members， the pharmaceutical care framework suitable for elderly individuals provided by hospital pharmacists collaborating with nursing homes was finalized. RESULTS The questionnaire recovery rates for both rounds of expert correspondence consultation were 100%， with an authority coefficient ＞0.8 and Kendall’s W ranging between 0.153 and 0.185 （ P ＜0.001）. A total of 7 primary items and 31 secondary items were ultimately determined， with the consistency ratio of the item weights all being less than 0.1. Based on the integration of importance and feasibility， among the primary items， “assessment of pharmaceutical care needs” was assigned the highest weight. Among the secondary items， highly practical items such as “survey of pharmaceutical care needs”“guidance on usage and dosage”“methods for correctly reading drug package inserts”， and “self-management of common chronic diseases in the elderly” were assigned relatively high comprehensive weights. CONCLUSIONS The pharmaceutical care framework suitable for elderly individuals provided by hospital pharmacists collaborating with nursing homes， which was constructed based on the Delphi method， demonstrates good scientific validity and reliability， and can serve as a reference for pharmacists to provide pharmaceutical care in nursing homes.
