Objective: To explore the association between dietary patterns and overweight and obesity among primary and middle school students, so as to provide the guidance of diet balance and obesity prevention for students. Methods: Students from 11 primary and middle schools in Tongzhou District, Beijing Municipality, were selected using the stratified cluster sampling method. Demographic information was collected through a general questionnaire, and dietary intake types and frequencies over the past week were assessed using a food frequency questionnaire. Dietary patterns were determined using factor analysis, and the dietary pattern factor scores were divided into Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups based on quartiles. Height and weight were collected through physical examinations, and Z-scores of body mass index adjusted for gender and age were calculated to assess overweight and obesity. The association between dietary patterns and overweight and obesity was analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 1 485 students were surveyed, including 745 males (50.17%) and 740 females (49.83%). The mean age was (12.87±2.86) years. Three dietary patterns were identified: animal and plant protein dietary pattern, high-fat and high-sugar dietary pattern, and vegetable-fruit-dairy dietary pattern. The detection rates of overweight and obesity were 42.57%, 48.42%, and 34.75%, respectively, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the vegetable-fruit-dairy dietary pattern, the animal and plant protein dietary pattern (OR=1.406, 95%CI: 1.084-1.823) and the high-fat and high-sugar dietary pattern (OR=2.137, 95%CI: 1.643-2.779) were associated with a higher risk of overweight and obesity among primary and middle school students. Compared with the Q1 group of dietary pattern factor scores, the Q3 group (OR=1.631, 95%CI: 1.206-2.208) and Q4 group (OR=1.965, 95%CI: 1.446-2.671) of the high-fat and high-sugar dietary pattern had an increased risk of overweight and obesity, while the Q4 group of the vegetable-fruit-dairy dietary pattern (OR=0.551, 95%CI: 0.406-0.747) had a reduced risk of overweight and obesity. There was no statistical association between factor scores of animal and plant protein dietary pattern and overweight and obesity (all P>0.05). Conclusions The animal and plant protein dietary pattern and the high-fat and high-sugar dietary pattern are associated with a higher risk of overweight and obesity among primary and middle school students. Within the same dietary pattern, the more inclined students are to the high-fat and high-sugar dietary pattern, the higher their risk of overweight and obesity, while the more inclined they are to the vegetable-fruit-dairy dietary pattern, the lower their risk of overweight and obesity.

Background and Objectives: The Fractional Flow Reserve and Intravascular UltrasoundGuided Intervention Strategy for Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Intermediate Stenosis (FLAVOUR) trial demonstrated non-inferiority of fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compared with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided PCI. We sought to investigate the cost-effectiveness of FFR-guided PCI compared to IVUS-guided PCI in Korea. Methods: A 2-part cost-effectiveness model, composed of a short-term decision tree model and a long-term Markov model, was developed for patients who underwent PCI to treat intermediate stenosis (40% to 70% stenosis by visual estimation on coronary angiography).The lifetime healthcare costs and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) were estimated from the healthcare system perspective. Transition probabilities were mainly referred from the FLAVOUR trial, and healthcare costs were mainly obtained through analysis of Korean National Health Insurance claims data. Health utilities were mainly obtained from the Seattle Angina Questionnaire responses of FLAVOUR trial participants mapped to EQ-5D. Results: From the Korean healthcare system perspective, the base-case analysis showed that FFR-guided PCI was 2,451 U.S. dollar lower in lifetime healthcare costs and 0.178 higher in QALYs compared to IVUS-guided PCI. FFR-guided PCI remained more likely to be cost-effective over a wide range of willingness-to-pay thresholds in the probabilistic sensitivity analysis. Conclusions Based on the results from the FLAVOUR trial, FFR-guided PCI is projected to decrease lifetime healthcare costs and increase QALYs compared with IVUS-guided PCI in intermediate coronary lesion, and it is a dominant strategy in Korea.

Aim To study the diastolic effect and mechanism of farrerol on isolated pulmonary arteries of C57BL/6J mice.Methods After anesthesia,mouse lung tissue was quickly removed and placed into the 4 ℃ K-H buffer,pulmonary arteries were isolated under the microscope and cut into 2 mm long vascular rings for spare use.(1)The effect of farrerol on the resting tension of isolated mouse pulmonary arteries:in the resting state,the active mouse pul-monary artery rings were treated with different concentrations of farrerol(10-6,3×10-6,10-5,3×10-5 and 10-4 mol/L).(2)Farrerol relaxed mouse pulmonary artery experiment:pulmonary arteries were contracted using phenylephrine(PE,1 μmol/L)or KCl(60 mmol/L),and when the contraction reached the platform,different concentrations of farrerol(10-6,3×10-6,10-5,3×10-5 and 10-4 mol/L)was added.(3)Farrerol inhibited pulmonary artery contraction experi-ment:under conditions with or without the addition of farrerol,pulmonary arteries were contracted using different concen-trations of PE(10-9,3×10-9,10-8,3 × 10-8,10-7,3×10-7 and 10-6 mol/L)or KCl(20,30,40,60,80 and 120 mmol/L),and the pulmonary artery muscle tension was recorded.(4)Calcium free and recalcification experiments:under conditions with or without the addition of farrerol,the changes of isolated mouse pulmonary artery tension were meas-ured in the state of calcium free or recalcification { 2.5 mmol/L[Ca2+]ex }.(5)The relationship between farrerol in-duced relaxation of isolated mouse pulmonary arteries and potassium ion channels:firstly,60 mmol/L KCl solution was used to contract the mouse pulmonary arteries until the platform.Then,3 mmol/L aminopyridine(4-AP),2 mmol/L tet-raethylammonium(TEA),30 μmol/L BaCl2,and 10 μmol/L glibenclamide(Gli)were added and treated for 15 min.Subsequently,the pulmonary arteries were relaxed using a concentration gradient of farrerol.Results Farrerol had no significant effect on the mouse pulmonary arteries in the resting state,but had a concentration-dependent relaxing effect on the mouse pulmonary arteries pre-contracted with PE and KCl.While the pretreatment of 3×10-5 mol/L farrerol could sig-nificantly reduce the maximum contraction of mouse pulmonary arteries induced by PE and KCl(P＜0.01),as well as sig-nificantly reduce the contraction of mouse pulmonary arteries induced by KCl under calcium free or recalcification conditions(P＜0.01).Addition of the voltage-dependent potassium ion channel blocker 4-AP significantly reduced the maximum diastolic rate of mouse pulmonary arteries induced by farrerol(P＜0.01),while addition of the high conductivity calcium activated potassium ion channel blocker TEA,inward rectifying potassium ion channel blocker BaCl2,or ATP sensitive po-tassium ion channel blocker Gli had no significant effect on the vasodilation effect of farrerol(P＞0.05).Conclusion Farrerol has a relaxing effect on isolated mouse pulmonary arteries,and its mechanism may be related to open voltage-de-pendent potassium ion channels.

Objective To explore and analyze the implementation effect of the combined traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)and Western medicine DRG payment model in TCM hospitals,aiming to provide a reference for the reform of medical in-surance payment methods in such hospitals.Methods R language was utilized to statistically analyze the costs and other indica-tors of the sample hospitals before and after the implementation of the combined TCM and Western medicine DRG payment within 1-2 years.Results Following the implementation of the combined TCM and Western medicine DRG payment,there was a de-crease in average hospitalization costs and average length of stay,accompanied by an increase in CMI(average weight).The cost structure underwent changes:the proportions of western medicine fees and auxiliary examination fees decreased,whereas the pro-portion of TCM treatment fees increased.Significant statistical differences were observed in each group of data(p＜2.2e-16).Conclusion The combined TCM and Western medicine DRG payment reform model can facilitate TCM hospitals in reducing medical costs,controlling medical expenses,optimizing the cost structure,and promoting the development of TCM diagnosis and treatment characteristics.

Objective To explore the mediating effects of self-disclosure and rumination on stigma and self-image in patients with head and neck cancer after surgery,so as to provide a reference for targeted intervention.Methods A total of 390 postoperative patients with head and neck cancer who were hospitalized in a Class Ⅲ Grade A general hospital in Shandong Province were selected by quota sampling method according to disease type.The general information questionnaire,shame and stigma scale in head and neck cancer distress disclosure index,ruminative responses scale and body image scale were used to investigate.Results A total of 360 patients with head and neck cancer after surgery completed the survey.The scores of stigma,self-image,rumination and self-disclosure were(37.9±11.0),(13.9±5.6),(56.5±12.4)and(28.9±7.3),respectively.There was a negative correlation between stigma and self-disclosure in patients with head and neck cancer after surgery(r=-0.386,P<0.001),and a positive correlation with self-image and rumination(r=0.455,0.565,all P<0.001).Self-disclosure and rumination had parallel mediating effects on stigma and self-image in patients with head and neck cancer after surgery,and the mediating effect accounted for 38.82％of the total effect.Conclusion The degree of self-image of postoperative patients with head and neck cancer not only directly affects the level of stigma,but also indirectly affects stigma through the mediating effect of self-disclosure and rumination.In clinical work,measures can be taken to improve the level of self-image and self-disclosure ability of patients,reduce the level of rumination and reduce the stigma of patients.

Objective:To investigate the current status and influencing factors of decision anxiety in guardians of children with acute appendicitis under Endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) background, and to provide reference for the development of targeted intervention programs for decision anxiety.Methods:Convenient sampling method was used to select 254 guardians of children with acute appendicitis treated in the Department of Pediatrics, Second Affiliated Hospital of PLA Air Force Medical University from February 2023 to April 2024. A cross-sectional survey was conducted using the General Data Questionnaire, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory Form Y-State anxiety subscale and the Preparation for Decision Making Scale. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors in guardians of children with acute appendicitis.Results:Among the guardians of 254 children with acute appendicitis, 156 were males and 98 were females, aged (37.44 ± 3.63) years old. The decision anxiety score of guardians of children with acute appendicitis was (52.49 ± 6.54). The results of multiple linear regression showed that age of children, gender of guardian, education level of guardian, per capita monthly income of family, decision making tendency and decision preparation were the main influencing factors of decision anxiety in guardians of children with acute appendicitis ( t values were -7.07-3.58, all P<0.05), which could explain 64.4% of the total variation. Conclusions:The decision anxiety in guardians of children with acute appendicitis is at a high level. Medical staff should provide targeted decision guidance, improve decision assistance programs and provide more effective decision support for guardians of children with acute appendicitis.
