Objective:
To determine the association between exposure to entertainment screen content on mobile phones and symptoms of anxiety-depression co-morbidity among college students,so as to provide evidence for mental health interventions.
Methods:
A baseline survey was conducted from April to May 2019. A total of 1 135 college students were selected from one university each in Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province and Hefei City, Anhui Province using cluster random sampling method. A follow up study was conducted in November 2019, resulting in 1 110 matched valid responses. Self rating questionnaires were used to assess the exposure of entertainment screen content. The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21(DASS-21) and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) were used to evaluate the anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, and symptoms of anxiety-depression co-morbidity among college students. A multivariate binary Logistic regression model was constructed following initial intergroup comparisons with Chi-square test to determine the association between baseline exposure to mobile entertainment screen content and the risk of symptoms of anxiety depression co-morbidity at baseline and the 6 month follow up.
Results:
The prevalence rates of symptoms of anxiety-depression co-morbidity among college students were 25.4% and 20.6% at baseline and follow up, respectively.After adjusting for confounding factors such as gender, self rated family economic status and self rated health status, the results of multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the appropriate exposure level group, the exposure of entertainment screen content on mobile phones at baseline, including frequent exposure to reading( OR =1.65,95% CI =1.14-2.39), occasional exposure to other entertainment screen content ( OR =1.46,95% CI =1.01-2.10)and frequent exposure to other entertainment screen content( OR =1.76,95% CI =1.20-2.60), increased the co-occurrence risk of symptoms of anxiety-depression co-morbidity among college students during the follow up period (all P <0.05).
Conclusion
Occasional or frequert exposure to mobile entertainment screen content can increase the risk of symptoms of anxiety depression co-morbidity among college students.

Objective:
To investigate the association between screening detected myopia in primary school students and mixed exposure to air pollutants, so as to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of myopia in children and adolescents.
Methods:
From May to July 2023, a cluster random sampling method was used to select 15 102 primary school students in grades 3 through 6 from Hefei, Zhongshan, Shenyang, and Nanchang citys. Data were collected through questionnaires, distance vision screening, and computerized refraction. Monthly average concentration data for particulate matter (PM 10 ), fine particulate matter (PM 2. 5), NO 2 and SO 2 were used to calculate the annual average pollutant concentrations for primary school students. Quantile g computation model was employed to analyze the association between mixed exposure to air pollutants and screening detected myopia.
Results:
The differences in concentrations of the four pollutants among cities were statistically significant ( H =12 886.0, 13 285.0, 8 559.0, 13 181.0, all P <0.01). In the overall sample, there was no statistically significant association between combined exposure to air pollutants and the risk of myopia ( β=0.033, 95%CI=-0.004-0.072, P =0.08). Stratified analysis by outdoor activity time showed that among primary school students with outdoor activity time ≤1 h/d, mixed exposure to air pollutants was positively associated with the risk of myopia ( β=0.050, 95%CI=0.002-0.099, P =0.04); after stratification by city, combined exposure to air pollutants was significantly associated with the risk of myopia among primary school students in Nanchang and Shenyang [ β (95% CI )= 0.232(0.175-0.289), 0.080(0.006-0.155), both P <0.05], whereas no statistically significant association was observed among primary school students in Hefei and Zhongshan [ β (95% CI )=-0.010(-0.071-0.051), -0.032(-0.167-0.102), both P > 0.05 ].
Conclusions
Exposure to multiple air pollutants may increase the risk of myopia in primary school students, with the risk influenced by time spent outdoors and geographical location. It is recommended that outdoor activity management for children be strengthened in areas with higher air pollution levels, and that environmental factors be incorporated into comprehensive myopia prevention and control strategies.
3.Association between college students biological rhythms and their trajectory of change with anxiety and depressive symptoms
Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(8):1161-1165
Objective:
To investigate the longitudinal association between biological rhythm trajectories and the risk of anxiety, depression, and comorbid symptoms among college students, so as to provide a cumulative empirical basis for early psychiatric tracking and mental health warning systems.
Methods:
Using random cluster sampling method, a baseline survey was conducted from April to May 2019. One comprehensive university and one medical university were selected in Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province, and Hefei City, Anhui Province, respectively. A total of 1 029 first year college students were recruited as study participants, and four waves of longitudinal follow up were carried out over a period of two years. The Self rating of Biological Rhythm Disorder for Adolescents was used to assess college students biological rhythms, and using the dynamic data from the first two follow ups to construct the trajectory of biological rhythm changes. Mental health outcomes (anxiety and depressive symptoms) at the end of the follow up period were assessed using Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 and Patient Health Questionnaire-9. Multivariable Logistic regression models were employed to evaluate the independent predictive value of distinct lifestyle rhythm trajectories on the detection risk of long term anxiety, depression, and their comorbid symptoms.
Results:
The prevalence rates of anxiety, depression, and comorbid symptoms among participants were 23.5%, 22.6%, and 16.7%, respectively. Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that, after adjusting for confounding factors such as sex, major, smoking, and alcohol consumption, compared with the persistent low risk reference group of overall biological rhythm, the persistent high risk trajectory group of overall assessment had an increased risk of anxiety symptoms( OR=3.87, 95%CI =2.45-6.11), depressive symptoms( OR=3.18, 95%CI =1.98-5.10), and comorbid symptoms( OR=2.43, 95%CI =1.46-4.04)(all P <0.05).Among college students in the elevated overall assessment risk group, the risks of anxiety symptoms ( OR=1.97, 95%CI =1.22-3.17), depressive symptoms ( OR=2.13, 95%CI =1.33-3.42), and comorbid symptoms ( OR=1.81, 95%CI =1.07-3.06) were also increased (all P <
0. 05), and the various risks in the group with increased risks were also higher than those in the group with consistently low risks.
Conclusions
The dynamic deterioration and persistent disruption of college students lifestyle and behavioral rhythms serve as strong early warning indicators for long term anxiety and depressive symptoms. Mental health screening in colleges and universities should incorporate multi timepoint dynamic tracking of behavioral rhythms, and circadian rhythm regulation should be regarded as a core target for group level mental health interventions.

A total of 1 017 030 patients who underwent HBV serological markers testing in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2023 were enrolled as the research objects. The included cases were divided into 14 districts in Liaoning: Shenyang (345 346), Dalian (13 219), Anshan (38 536), Fushun (40 067), Benxi (28 883), Dandong (34 284), Jinzhou (35 827), Yingkou (40 573), Fuxin (30 675), Liaoyang (26 282), Panjin (21 008), Tieling (74 632), Chaoyang (43 858) and Huludao (20 949). The included cases were divided into 7 groups according to age: 0-10 years old (162 457), 11-20 years old (33 657), 21-30 years old (129 791), 31-40 years old (235 378), 41-50 years old (124 925), 51-60 years old (143 361), and≥61 years old (187 461). According to different time points of the implementation of vaccination policies, cases born from January 1, 1992 to December 31, 2023 were divided into three groups: the group from January 1, 1992 to December 31, 2001 (94 194), the group from January 1, 2002 to May 31, 2005 (70 428), and the group from June 1, 2005 to December 31, 2023 (87 057). The general data and HBV serological markers results were collected for statistical analysis. The comparison of intergroup rates was conducted using the Chi-square test, and the trend test was conducted using the Cochran Armitage test. Results:In recent five years, the total positivity of serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb), hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg), hepatitis B e antibody (HBeAb) and hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) were 6.68% (67 938/1 017 030), 51.69% (485 627/939 498), 2.37% (21 961/926 626), 15.00% (138 853/925 759) and 27.86% (257 344/923 703), respectively. According to gender, the total positivity of HBV serological markers in men was significantly higher than that in women, and the difference was statistically significant (HBsAg: χ 2=5 599.286, P<0.001; HBsAb: χ 2=5.065, P=0.024; HBeAg: χ 2=2 451.420, P<0.001; HBeAb: χ 2=1 066.145, P<0.001; HBcAb: χ 2=4 013.618, P<0.001). According to the age group, the peak of HBsAg positivity was mainly distributed in the age group of 41-50 years old, with a positivity of 10.48% (2 864/27 324). The positivity of HBsAb decreased with age.The positivity of HBsAb decreased with age increase, highest in the 0-10 years old group, and a decrese in the 11-20 years old group ( Z=18 915.453, P<0.001). The positivity of HBcAb increased with age ( Z=27 493.853, P<0.001). According to the regional groups, the positivity of HBsAg and HBeAg in Shenyang City were 5.01% (3 996/76 974) and 1.45% (944/69 117) respectively. The positivity of HBsAb in patients from Liaoyang district was the highest [55.89% (3 362/6 150)]. The highest positivity of HBeAb and HBcAb were in patients from Dandong district, 19.90% (3 362/6 150) and 37.37% (3 119/8 680) respectively. According to the different time points of the implementation of the vaccination policies, the positivity of HBsAg in cases born from June 1, 2005 and December 31, 2023 decreased to 0.30% (259/87 057) compared with cases born before this time point (χ 2=5 777.47, P<0.001). Conclusions:The analysis of HBV serological laboratory characteristics showed that the positivity of contagious HBV serological markers was still high. The positivity of male was higher than that of female. HBsAb levels decreased significantly in the 11-20 years old group, suggesting the necessity to strengthen hepatitis B prevention in this age group. There were regional differences in the prevalence of hepatitis B, suggesting the necessity to optimize and improve HBV prevention and control strategies.
