1.Systematic review and Meta analysis of the effect of sleep on subsequent day physical activity among children and adolescents
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(12):1781-1786
Objective:
To explore the effects of sleep on subsequent day physical activity (PA) in children and adolescents, so as to provide a reference for refining PA intervention strategies and further investigating their underlying mechanisms.
Methods:
Through searching databases including Web of Science Core Collection, PubMed, EBSCOhost, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP cross sectional, cohort and experimental studies on sleep and subsequent day PA among children and adolescents were identified, with the searching period spanning from database inception to June, 2025. Based on the characteristics of the included literature, two sleep variables[sleep duration (SD) and sleep efficiency (SE)] and three physical activity variables[moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), light physical activity (LPA), and total physical activity (TPA)] were selected. The relationship between these two types of variables was analyzed for pooled effect sizes using Stata 17.0.
Results:
A total of 14 studies were included, with 64.3% published in 2018 or later, involving 11 361 children and adolescents from 17 countries. Meta analysis results showed that both SD ( ES=0.04, 95%CI =0.01-0.07) and SE ( ES=0.24, 95%CI =0.01-0.47) were positively correlated with subsequent day MVPA (both P <0.05). However, no statistically significant associations were found with LPA ( ES=-0.04, 95%CI =-0.13 to 0.06; ES=-0.02, 95%CI =-0.15 to 0.11) or TPA( ES=0.09, 95%CI =-0.02 to 0.20; ES=0.02, 95%CI = -0.03 to 0.06)(all P >0.05). Subgroup analysis revealed that in the "≤6 years" subgroup, SD and SE were positively correlated with TPA ( ES=0.22, 95%CI =0.09-0.35) and MVPA ( ES=1.19, 95%CI =1.06-1.32), respectively; in the "6-12 years" subgroup, SD was positively correlated with MVPA ( ES=0.05, 95%CI =0.02-0.08); in the "≥12 years" subgroup, SE was positively correlated with LPA ( ES=0.08, 95%CI =0.00-0.16), while SD was negatively correlated with LPA ( ES=-0.23, 95%CI = -0.31 to -0.16) (all P <0.05).
Conclusion
Adequate SD and good SE can effectively enhance subsequent day MVPA among children and adolescents, although these sleep effects vary by age group.

Objective To discuss the application effect of using a stone extractor balloon catheter to assist in crossing the anastomotic stenosis in treatment of anastomotic biliary stenosis after liver transplantation using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP).Methods Clinical data of 48 patients who developed anastomotic biliary stenosis after liver transplantation and underwent ERCP treatment were collected.Upon unsuccessful use of a dilation catheter to cross the stricture,attempts were made to cross the anastomotic biliary stenosis by using a stone extractor balloon catheter.The success rate of the procedure was recorded,intraoperative conditions were observed,treatment outcomes and complications were analyzed.Results The main presenting symptoms in the 48 patients on admission were abdominal discomfort(32 patients),fever(7 patients),pruritus(4 patients),jaundice(3 patients),and no obvious symptoms(2 patients).Preoperative magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography(MRCP)examination revealed isolated stricture of the anastomotic site in 35 cases,and stricture associated with stones in 13 cases.Using the stone extractor balloon catheter as a guide,guidewire crossing of the anastomotic stenosis was successful in 26 cases,resulting in a success rate of 54.17%(26/48).Through statistical analysis of the successful group and the failed group,there was a significant difference in whether the distal biliary dilatation between the two groups,and the difference was statistically significant(χ2 = 8.39,P = 0.004).In the 26 successfully treated cases,alanine transaminase(ALT),aspartate transaminase(AST),γ-glutamyl transpeptidase(γ-GT),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),and total bilirubin(TBiL)levels decreased significantly 48 hours after the procedure(P<0.05),and no serious complications occurred.Conclusion The use of a stone extractor balloon catheter significantly increases the success rate of crossing anastomotic stenosis in the treatment of anastomotic biliary stenosis after liver transplantation,especially in cases with distal dilatation of the common bile duct.This approach is safe and worth promoting.
5.Cluster characteristics of physical activities among children inside and outside kindergartens and its relationship with athletic abilities
Chinese Journal of School Health 2023;44(10):1560-1563
Objective:
Based on physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) variables on weekdays and weekends, the study aims to cluster the physical activities inside and outside kindergartens and to explore the cluster characteristics of different children using physical fitness indicators, so as to provide new strategies and methods for early childhood education and health.
Methods:
From March to June 2019, 291 children aged 3-6 years from 6 kindergartens in Nanchang were recruited by a stratified cluster random sampling method. The ActiGraph GT3X-BT triaxial accelerometer was used to measure and analyze the PA and SB levels inside and outside the kindergarten. A twostep clustering algorithm model was employed for cluster analysis. Physical fitness were measured and evaluated according to the "National Physical Fitness Measurement Standard Manual (Preschool Section)". Differences in physical fitness among different clusters of children were compared, and the cluster characteristics of different children were analyzed.
Results:
The clustering algorithm model indicated that based on six indicators, including PA and SB inside the kindergarten on weekdays, and PA and SB outside the kindergarten on both weekdays and weekends, children could be divided into three categories:active inside (high PA, low SB inside), active outside (high PA outside), and inactive (low PA, high SB both inside and outside). The average silhouette coefficient of the model was 0.3, indicating good clustering results. Both the active inside and active outside children showed significantly higher PA inside on weekdays, PA outside on weekdays and weekends, daily low intensity physical activity (LPA) and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) than the inactive children ( F=157.91, 80.79 , 95.86, 95.52, 124.74, P <0.05). After adjusting for gender and age, the physical fitness scores of both active outside ( 19.03 ±0.47) and active inside (19.11±0.40) were significantly higher than those of the inactive children (17.94±0.31). Additionally, active inside children (3.91±0.14) also showed significantly better performance in continuous double-leg jumps, compared to inactive children (3.45±0.11) ( P <0.05).
Conclusion
Children active inside and those active outside perform well in PA. Future research should focus on the proportion of structured and unstructured PA time to enhance the overall physical fitness of children.

Objective:To investigate the effects of standardized treatment combined with medical nutrition intervention on blood glucose level, body mass management and glucose metabolism at 3 months postpartum in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods:A total of 114 patients with GDM who received treatment in Shunyi District Hospital of Beijing from June 2017 to October 2019 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into observation group ( n = 57) and control group ( n = 57). The control group was treated with standardized therapy, and the observation group was treated with standardized therapy combined with medical nutrition intervention. Blood glucose level, body mass management, glucose metabolism outcomes at 3 months postpartum, pregnancy outcome, and neonatal outcome were compared between the two groups. Results:After treatment, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), fasting blood glucose, 2-hour plasma glucose (2hPG) after breakfast, and 2hPG after dinner in the observation group were (5.20 ± 0.34)%, (4.69 ± 0.31) mmol/L, (7.32 ± 2.13) mmol/L, and (7.54 ± 2.36) mmol/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(6.38 ± 0.42)%, (6.34 ± 0.45) mmol/L, (9.01 ± 2.27) mmol/L, (9.35 ± 2.47) mmol/L, t = 16.48, 22.79, 4.09, 4.00, all P < 0.001]. The increases in body mass and body mass index during pregnancy in the observation groups were (12.19 ± 2.35) kg and (4.52 ± 1.13) kg/m 2, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(16.21 ± 2.64) kg, (6.11 ± 1.25) kg/m 2, t = 8.58, 7.12, both P < 0.001]. The abnormal rate of glucose metabolism at 3 months postpartum in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [5.3% (3/57) vs. 8.8% (5/57), χ2 = 0.53, P = 0.462]. The incidences of premature rupture of membranes, polyhydramnios, and cesarean section in the observation group were 5.3% (3/57), 14.0% (8/57) and 15.8% (9/57), which were significantly lower than those in the control group [22.8% (13/57), 35.1% (20/57), 40.4% (23/57), χ2 = 7.27, 6.81, 8.51, all P < 0.05]. There were no significant differences in the incidences of pregnancy-induced hypertension and postpartum hemorrhage between the two groups (both P > 0.05). The incidences of premature births, macrosomia, respiratory distress, neonatal hypoglycemia and hyperbilirubinemia in the observation groups were 5.3% (3/57), 3.5% (2/57), 7.0% (4/57), 3.5% (2/57), 5.3% (3/57), respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [22.8% (13/57), 17.5% (10/57), 21.1% (12/57), 15.8% (9/57), 19.3% (11/57), χ2 = 7.27, 5.96, 5.60, 4.93, 5.21, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Standardized treatment combined with medical nutrition intervention can effectively reduce blood glucose level in patients with GMD, control body mass, and improve glucose metabolism at 3 months after delivery.

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the cost/benefit of different vaccination strategies related to chickenpox vaccine.
METHODS:
The direct economic cost and indirect economic cost caused by chickenpox were obtained through questionnaire survey. The epidemic characteristics of chickenpox in Zhejiang province were studied by literature review. Dynamic model was set up by Matlab software based on the parameters of chickenpox, to predict the incidence trends of chickenpox with different immunization strategies (no vaccination, 1-dose vaccination, 2-dose vaccination) in future 40 years (2017-2056). A cost-benefit analysis was conducted, and the sensitivities of the main parameters were analyzed.
RESULTS:
Through the questionnaire survey of 105 cases, the direct and indirect economic cost per case was 506.84 Yuan and 1045.39 Yuan respectively, with the total of 1552.23 Yuan. During the prediction period (40 years), there would be 7.0908 million cases in strategy 2, which was 59.71% less than strategy 1 (17.5989 million cases). Total vaccination costs in strategy 2 were 2.366 billion Yuan, with a total economic gain of 33.741 billion Yuan and benefit/cost ratio (BCR) of 14.26:1. If strategy 3 was adopted, 2.7249 million chickenpox cases would occur, with a decrease of 84.52% compared with strategy 1. Total vaccination costs in strategy 3 was 4.495 billion Yuan, with a total economic gain of 44.309 billion Yuan and BCR of 9.86:1. Analysis showed that the vaccine price was the most sensitive variable, followed by the incidence of chickenpox in the absence of vaccine.
CONCLUSIONS
In Zhejiang province, one-dose strategy and two-dose strategy were both cost effective. It is suggested that the chickenpox vaccination should be included in the immunization program in Zhejiang province.

Purpose Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) is difficult to diagnose its nature before surgery, thus results in misdiagnosis. This paper aims to determine the best diagnostic cutoff value using anteroposterior and transverse diameter ratio (A/L) and longitudinal and transverse diameter ration (L/T) in PTMC. Materials and Methods The CT data of 154 pathology proven benign and malignant thyroid nodules ≤ 1.0 cm in diameter in 78 cases were reviewed, including 75 PTMC in 47 patients and 79 benign nodule in 31 patients. The anteroposterior and transverse diameter ratio (A/T) on axial view, A/L on sagittal view, and L/T on coronal view were measured and calculated. A non-parametric method was used to draw the receiver operating curve of A/T, A/L and L/T. The mean and standard deviation of CT diameters in benign and malignant nodules were calculated. The area under the curve, sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were determined. CT manifestations of small benign and malignant thyroid nodules were also analyzed. Results The A/T and A/L ratio were significantly larger for PTMC than benign nodules (P<0.01), while L/T diameters were significantly smaller than the benign nodules (P<0.01). The area under ROC was 0.8841, 0.7676 and 0.4052 for A/T, A/L and L/T respectively. The best diagnostic cutoff value of A/T and A/L were 1.05 and 1.0. With A/T ≥ 1.05, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 88.00%, 84.81%, 86.36%, 84.62% and 88.12%, respectively. With A/L ≥ 1.0, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive values were 66.67%, 82.28%, 74.68%, 78.13% and 72.22%, respectively. CT characteristics of PTMC included superficial location, oval low density, blurry boundary, microcalcification and progressive enhancement with accuracy of 71.43%, 50.00%, 79.22%, 68.83% and 90.91%, respectively. Conclusion The cutoff values of A/T ≥ 1.05 and A/L ≥ 1.0 can be used to diagnose PTMC with high accuracy.

A label-free electrochemical immunosensor using hollow structure nanomaterials based on its ordered porous and big surface area was designed. Au nanocage, with good conductivity, catalysis, and biocompatibility, was prepared and modified on the surface of glassy carbon electrode with graphene to immobilize antibody of microcystin directly. In the absence of microcystin, biosensor can obtain high current response signal of electrochemical probe ( [ Fe( CN) 6 ] 3-/4-. When microcystin was combined with its antibody specifically, the charge density and mass transfer resistance on the surface of electrode increased, resulting in a decrease of the corresponding peak current of [ Fe ( CN ) 6 ] 3-/4-. This change was in proportion to the concentration of microcystin indirectly. Experiment conditions such as cultivation time of antigen and concentration of antibody were optimized. The results showed wide linear range of 0. 05 μg/L-1. 0 mg/L and the detection limit of 0. 017 ng/mL. This sensor has good stability and simple production procedure. This sensor provides a new and simple means for the ultrasensitive determination of microcystins in real water samples.
