Objective:
To explore differences in the factors influencing parents and teachers assessments of preschool children s mental health using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), so as to provide reference for promoting children s mental health.
Methods:
A retrospective analysis was conducted on the SDQ survey data of 14 763 middle and senior kindergarten children in Nanshan District, Shenzhen, from March to June 2023. Chi square χ 2 tests were used to analyze differences in mental health assessments between parents and teachers. Multivariate Logistic regression was employed to examine the factors influencing parental assessments, and Kappa coefficients were used to evaluate the consistency between parent and teacher evaluations.
Results:
The positive rate of mental health problems reported by parents (7.2%) was significantly higher than that reported by teachers (6.2%) ( χ 2=254.27, P <0.01). Gender differences revealed that parents reported a lower positive rate for boys (7.9%) compared to teachers (8.5%), whereas for girls, the parental positive rate (6.4%) was higher than that reported by teachers (3.8%) ( χ 2=163.59, 81.26, all P <0.01). Age related differences showed that parental positive rates for 4, 5, and 6 year olds (8.5%, 7.4%, 5.8%) were consistently higher than teachers assessments (6.3%, 6.7%, 5.4%) ( χ 2=41.23, 157.53, 63.67, all P <0.05). Univariate analysis of parental assessments indicated higher positive rates among boys (7.9%), 4 year olds (8.5%), mothers aged 20-35 ( 6.6 %), mothers with high school education or below (9.8%), fathers aged 23-40 (6.4%), fathers with high school education or below (10.3%), and children exposed to secondhand smoke (7.9%) ( χ 2=23.56-235.24, all P <0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression identified lower parental education levels and exposure to secondhand smoke as significant risk factors for abnormal SDQ assessments by parents ( χ 2=2.05, 1.62, 3.15, all P <0.05). The Kappa coefficients for parent-teacher agreement across SDQ subscales and total difficulties ranged from 0.04 to 0.12 (all P <0.01).
Conclusions
Parental education level and exposure to secondhand smoke are significant factors influencing preschool children s mental health. Differences exist between parental and teacher assessments of children s mental health, and incorporating teacher evaluations can provide a more comprehensive understanding of preschoolers psychological well being.

Objective:To carry out an overview of systematic reviews on interventions to prevent the recurrence of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) patients.Methods:Systematic reviews or Meta-analysis on interventions to prevent DFU recurrence were electronically retrieved from databases such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, China Biology Medicine disc, Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Evidence-Based Healthcare Center Database, Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, CINAHL and Web of Science. The search period was from database establishment to April 20, 2023. Two researchers independently searched and screened literature, and extracted data, and used AMSTAR 2 software and the quality evaluation criteria for systematic review of JBI Evidence-Based Healthcare Center to evaluate the methodological quality of the included literature. GRADE evaluation system was used for quality assessment of outcome indicators (DFU recurrence rate, effectiveness of measures to prevent DFU recurrence) .Results:A total of 24 systematic reviews were included. Studies showed that monitoring and intervention of foot skin temperature, therapeutic shoes or insoles, comprehensive intervention measures, and specific surgical methods could reduce the recurrence rate of DFU, while foot self-care, foot exercise, health education, and psychological intervention had no statistical effect on preventing DFU recurrence. The methodological quality of systematic reviews was generally low. The reports of four articles were relatively complete, 18 articles had certain defects, and two articles had serious defects. The evaluation of evidence quality showed that there were three pieces of moderate-quality evidence, seven pieces of low-quality evidence, and 30 pieces of extremely low-quality evidence.Conclusions:Existing evidence suggests that foot skin temperature monitoring and intervention, therapeutic shoes or insoles, comprehensive intervention measures, and specific surgical methods (such as Achilles tendon lengthening, metatarsophalangeal joint replacement, metatarsal head resection and so on) have a positive impact on preventing DFU recurrence. Rigorous and high standard research is still needed to verify the controversial issues, so as to provide reliable evidence for future clinical practice and studies.
