1.Analysis of related factors for the comorbidity of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia
Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(1):27-31
Objective:
To investigate the factors influencing the co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia, so as to provide a data foundation and theoretical basis for developing targeted intervention measures.
Methods:
In September and October 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select 139 102 students from 539 schools across 12 leagues/cities and 103 banners/counties in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Participants who were diagnosed with allergic rhinitis by a doctor at least once within one year and had a body mass index ≥ 28 kg/m 2 were considered to have comorbid conditions.
Results:
The coprevalence rate of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia was 6.4% (8 931 cases). Lasso-Logistic regression revealed that nonboarding status, higher maternal education, consuming high protein foods ≥1 time daily, occasionally or never eating breakfast, engaging in moderate to vigorous physical activity for ≥60 minutes on fewer than half of holidays, and having been exposed to second hand smoke in person within the past seven days were associated with higher odds ratios for co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity( OR = 1.23 , 1.22-1.63, 1.20, 1.19, 1.38, 1.35); being female, higher grade level, residence in flag/county/district areas, non only child status, never having consumed a full glass of alcohol, non hypertensive status, and households without pets were associated with lower co-prevalence risks ( OR =0.65, 0.67-0.77, 0.81, 0.87, 0.73, 0.41, 0.68) (all P <0.05). The ROC curve indicated an area under the curve of 0.64 for the predictive model, demonstrating satisfactory discriminatory ability. The calibration curve showed consistency between predicted and actual occurrence probabilities.
Conclusions
The co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia is closely associated with demographic characteristics, dietary behaviours, and lifestyle habits. Future prevention and control strategies should prioritize these factors to implement targeted interventions.

ObjectiveTo investigate whether anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody can enhance the efficacy and safety of argon-helium cryoablation combined with targeted therapy in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) aged 60 years or older. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 124 patients with advanced uHCC aged 60 years or older who were treated at The Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2013 to September 2024. After propensity score matching, 57 patients received cryoablation combined with targeted therapy (double combination group), while 57 received cryoablation combined with targeted therapy and anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody (triple combination group). The indicators for efficacy assessment included objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and the incidence rate of adverse events. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curves, and the Log-rank test was used for comparison between groups. A Cox proportional-hazards regression model analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors for survival prognosis. ResultsThe triple combination group had a significantly higher ORR than the double combination group (59.6% vs 29.8%, χ2=9.083, P=0.003), while there was no significant difference in DCR between the two groups (87.7% vs 77.2%, χ2=1.516, P=0.218), and compared with the double combination group, the triple combination group had significantly longer median PFS (9.1 months vs 4.8 months, χ2=7.813, P=0.005) and median OS (26.1 months vs 13.6 months, χ2=14.199, P<0.001). The multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression model analysis showed that triple combination treatment was an independent influencing factor for PFS (hazard ratio [HR]=0.52, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.35 — 0.78, P=0.001) and OS (HR=0.32, 95%CI: 0.20 — 0.51, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of adverse events between the two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionTriple combination treatment with argon-helium cryoablation, targeted therapy, and anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody can significantly improve survival benefits in uHCC patients aged 60 years or older, with a controllable safety profile.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of nanomicroneedle- versus ultrasound-mediated delivery of tranexamic acid for the treatment of melasma.Methods:A prospective, randomized, controlled study was conducted. Patients with melasma were collected from the Department of Dermatology, Guangzhou Dermatology Hospital from March 2023 to May 2024, and divided into a nanomicroneedle group (receiving nanomicroneedle-mediated delivery of tranexamic acid) and an ultrasound group (receiving ultrasound-mediated delivery of tranexamic acid) using the random number table method. Both groups underwent the treatment once a week for a total of 8 sessions. At week 12, outcomes including melasma area and severity index (MASI) scores, treatment response rates, VISIA brown spot scores, pain scores, and adverse reactions were evaluated and compared between the two groups. Statistical analyses were carried out using two-independent-sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, and chi-square test. Results:A total of 80 patients with melasma were included, with 40 in each group. In the nanomicroneedle group, the patients were aged 40.35 ± 7.39 years (range: 25 - 55 years), with the disease duration being 8.45 ± 4.77 months (range: 1 - 16 months) ; in the ultrasound group, the patients were aged 40.25 ± 7.76 years (range: 25 - 55 years), and their disease duration was 10.45 ± 5.07 months (range: 2 - 17 months) ; there were no significant differences in ages or disease duration between the two groups (both P > 0.05). At week 12, both groups demonstrated reduced MASI scores compared to baseline scores, and the MASI scores were significantly lower in the nanomicroneedle group ( M[ Q1, Q3]: 5.80[4.20, 9.35]) than in the ultrasound group (8.65[5.70, 10.80], Z = 2.50, P = 0.012). The overall response rate was significantly higher in the nanomicroneedle group (97.5%, 39/40) than in the ultrasound group (55.0%, 22/40; χ2 = 19.95, P < 0.001). The lateral facial VISIA brown spot scores were also significantly lower in the nanomicroneedle group (left side: 126.18 ± 36.54 points; right side: 138.50 ± 40.76 points) than in the ultrasound group (left side: 142.37 ± 32.40 points; right side: 157.13 ± 39.59 points; t = -2.10, -2.07, P = 0.039, 0.041, respectively). In the nanomicroneedle group, the pain scores were 4.12 ± 1.47 points, and varying severity of adverse reactions such as erythema, edema and dryness occurred after operation, all of which resolved spontaneously within 48 hours. No marked adverse reactions were observed in the ultrasound group. Conclusion:Nanomicroneedle-mediated delivery of tranexamic acid demonstrated superior clinical efficacy and favorable safety profiles compared to the ultrasound-mediated delivery, providing more options for the treatment of melasma.

Objective:To determine the detection rate of myopia among primary and secondary school students in Hunan Province in 2022 and to analyze the influencing factors at both the school and individual levels, thereby providing a scientific basis for developing myopia prevention and control strategies.Methods:From October to November 2022, a multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select students from Year 4 of primary school to Year 3 of senior high school across 14 prefecture-level (autonomous prefecture) cities in Hunan Province for vision screening and questionnaire surveys. A multilevel regression model was utilized to analyze the influencing factors of myopia at both the school and individual levels.Results:A total of 189 343 primary and secondary school students were included in this study. The overall myopia detection rate was 55.56%, with a significantly higher prevalence observed in female students (60.49%) compared to males (51.03%) and in urban students (59.12%) versus those from rural areas (53.50%). A marked upward trend in myopia prevalence was identified with advancing grade levels (trend test χ2=16 246.13, P<0.001). Multilevel regression analysis revealed that at the individual level, female gender, higher grade level, parental myopia history, daily homework duration ≥2 hours after school, improper reading/writing postures, and taking breaks only after more than 15 minutes of near work were associated with an increased risk of myopia. Conversely, adequate sleep duration, outdoor activity ≥2 hours, and outdoor breaks during recess demonstrated protective effects. At the school level, non-compliant blackboard illumination uniformity emerged as a significant risk factor for myopia development. Conclusions:The detection rate of myopia among primary and secondary school students in Hunan Province remains relatively high and is associated with multiple factors at both the school and individual levels. Targeted interventions should be implemented at different levels to mitigate the risk of myopia.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of intrinsic motivation of nurses between empowering leadership and job performance, with the aim of providing a reference basis for managers to develop a scientific and effective intervention programme to improve nurses′ job performance.Methods:Convenience sampling method was used to select 1 213 clinical nurses from four tertiary general hospitals in Shandong Province, Henan Province, Yunnan Province, and Fujian Province from November to December 2023, and General Information Questionnaire, Empowering Leadership Scale, Intrinsic Motivation Scale, and Job Performance Scale were used to conduct a cross-sectional survey. AMOS26.0 software was used to test the mediating effect of intrinsic motivation of nurses between empowering leadership and job performance.Results:A total of 1 100 nurses completed the survey finally. Among them, there were 58 males and 1 042 females, 474 under 31 years old, 448 between 31-40 years old, and 178 over 40 years old.The total scores of the Empowering Leadership Scale, Intrinsic Motivation Scale, and Job Performance Scale were 49.44 ± 10.04, 82.35 ± 13.54 and 46.27 ± 6.20 in that order. Nurses' job performance were positive correlation with the empowered leadership and intrinsic motivation ( r=0.486, 0.703, both P<0.01), there was a positive correlation between nurse empowerment leadership and intrinsic motivation ( r=0.452, P<0.01). Nurses′ intrinsic motivation partially mediates the relationship between empowering leadership and job performance, accounting for 62.69% of the total effect. Conclusions:Intrinsic motivation of nurses is a mediating variable between empowered leadership and job performance. Nursing managers should focus on nurses' participation in autonomous decision-making to enhance nurses′ sense of competence and meaning at work, and mobilise their motivation to improve job performance.

Objective:To explore the potential profile characteristics of family health in patients with chronic diseases, analyze the influencing factors of different family health categories, and further investigate the relationship between family health categories and the quality of life in patients with chronic diseases, providing a scientific basis for targeted intervention strategies.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. The data for the study were obtained from the Chinese Residents' Psychology and Behavior Survey Research Database. A multistage sampling method was employed to select 1 808 patients with chronic diseases as survey respondents from July to September 2021. Data were collected using the General Information Questionnaire, the Family Health Scale, and the European 5-Dimensional 5-Level Health Scale(EQ-5D-5L). Potential profiles of family health in patients with chronic diseases were identified using latent profile analysis. Univariate analysis and multiple Logistic regression were used to examine influencing factors, and generalized linear regression was performed to analyze the impact of different family health categories on quality of life.Results:A total of 1 808 chronic disease patients were enrolled, comprising 986 males and 822 females, with a age of (55.23 ± 7.02) years. The scores of family health, EQ-5D-5L, EuroQol Visual Analogue Scale were 38(34, 43), 0.94(0.84, 1.00), and 78(63, 87) points. The family health of patients with chronic diseases were categorized into three potential profiles: the low family health group (418 cases accounting for 23.1%), the medium family health group (747 cases accounting for 41.3%), and the high family health group (643 cases accounting for 35.6%). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that family type, marital status, nature of household, education level, number of siblings and type of health insurance were significant factors influencing family health categories ( OR values were 0.464-2.503, all P<0.05). The family health was an important factor influencing quality of life ( χ2 values were 4.05-100.68, all P<0.05). Conclusions:There is significant heterogeneity in the family health of patients with chronic diseases, which can be divided into three distinct categories. Patients with higher family health levels have better quality of life. Medical professionals should develop precise intervention programs tailored to the characteristics of each category to improve family health levels and enhance the quality of life of patients with chronic diseases.
