Objective:
To explore the relationship between sleep quality and executive function among middle school students, so as to provide theoretical support for the promotion of adolescents physical and mental health development.
Methods:
From September to December 2023, 5 713 junior and senior high school students aged 13 to 18 were selected by stratified cluster random sampling method from Shanghai, Suzhou, Taiyuan, Wuyuan, Xingyi, and Urumqi. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to conduct sleep quality survey. And conduct executive function was tested on middle school students, including inhibitory function, refresh function and conversion function tests. Spearman correlation and linear regression were used to analyze the relationship between sleep quality and executive function of middle school students.
Results:
The total Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score of boys was [4.0(2.0,6.0)] and that of girls was [5.0(3.0,6.0)], and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-10.90, P < 0.01 ). The total PSQI score of boys was positively correlated with both 2-back reaction time and conversion function of executive function ( r =0.04, 0.04); the total PSQI score of girls was negatively correlated with 2-back reaction time ( r =-0.04) ( P <0.05). After controlling for variables such as mental health, physical activity and nutritional status,linear regression analyses showed that PSQI total score of middle school students was positively correlated with the inhibitory function and the conversion function response time [ B (95% CI )=1.28(0.21-2.34), 7.62(2.34-12.90), P <0.05]; the associations of total PSQI scores among middle school students with both 2-back and 1-back response time were not statistically significant [ B (95% CI )=-5.88(-16.14-4.37), 8.05( -3.39 -19.50), P >0.05].
Conclusion
Positive correlations are observed on sleep quality with inhibitory and conversion functions of executive function among middle school students.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(6):779-782
Objective:
To explore relationship of sleep quality with overweight and obesity among middle school students, so as to provide a reference basis for improving adolescent sleep health.
Methods:
From September to December 2023, 5 713 middle school students aged 13 to 18 were selected by stratified cluster random sampling method in six regions, including Shanghai, Suzhou, Taiyuan, Wuyuan, Xingyi and Urumqi. Sleep quality survey was conducted on middle school students by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Height and weight were measured, and World Health Organization s standards for growth and development of children and adolescents was used to evaluate their nutritional status. Both χ 2 test and Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the association between sleep quality and nutritional status of middle school students.
Results:
The non compliance detection rate of sleep quality was 38.4% among girls, but 29.2% among boys, and the difference was of statistical significance( χ 2=54.08, P < 0.01 ). The detection rate of substandard sleep quality was 34.2% in the group with normal nutritional status, 38.3% in the group with overweight, 43.7% in the group with obesity and 26.0% in the group with emaciation, and the difference in the rates of substandard sleep quality among middle school students of different nutritional status was statistically significant ( χ 2=68.15, P <0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that, after controlling for mental health and physical activity, the detection rate of substandard sleep quality in the obese groups was 1.30 times higher than that in the normal group, respectively( OR =1.30, 95% CI =1.06- 1.59 , P <0.01).
Conclusions
Sleep quality is correlated with overweight and obesity among middle school students, and there are gender differences. Intervention policies should be formulated according to the characteristics of different genders.

Objective To evaluate whether Vibrio vulnificus secreted exotoxin-hemolysin (VVH) can activate platelet, an important blood immune cell, and to explore the possible molecular mechanism of platelet activation by VVH. Methods Transcriptomics and immunohistochemistry were used to analyze whether Vibrio vulnificus infection caused platelet activation in mice. Then, flow cytometry was used to identify whether VVH was the main stimulator of platelet activation. Naturally expressed VVH toxin was purified and prepared. The effects of extracellular and intracellular Ca2+ signal inhibitors on VVH activated platelets were evaluated by flow cytometry and Western blotting. The immune activation effect of VVH in the early stage of Vibrio vulnificus infection was analyzed in vivo. Results VVH was the main stimulator of platelet activation in Vibrio vulnificus culture supernatant. Natural VVH can induce the increase of P-selectin (CD62P) on platelet surface, the formation of platelet-neutrophil complex (PNC), and the release of platelet microvesicles. The activation mechanism may be related to the VVH pore-dependent Ca2+-calmodulin (CaM) -myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) signaling pathway, which led to the release of platelet alpha particles and cascade activation of platelets. In a mouse model of ALD infected by Vibrio vulnificus gavage, VVH was strongly associated with platelet activation. Conclusion This study shows that VVH is an important platelet activating molecule in the early stage of Vibrio vulnificus infection, and its induction of platelet activation may be related to the pathogenic process.

Objective:To investigate the differential impact of ultra-high-resolution photon-counting detector CT (UHR PCD-CT) and energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT) on image quality and calcified plaque-induced luminal stenosis in coronary CT angiography (CCTA).Methods:This retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent both EID-CT and UHR PCD-CT CCTA at the Geriatric Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between January 2021 and November 2024. A total of 141 patients were included in the study, within 46 patients having scans within a 12-month interval. Image quality of all coronary artery segments was subjectively evaluated. Patients with paired scans (interval≤12 months) were included for calcified plaque analysis. Subjective visualization of calcified plaques evaluated. The blooming artifact was calculated as an objective evaluation index for assessing the calcified plaques. Additionally, the degree of coronary artery lumen stenosis resulting from calcified plaques was assessed, along with the measurement of plaque volume and the Agatston score. Changes in lumen stenosis between the two scans were also evaluated. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare the subjective scores of coronary artery image quality and calcified plaques between the two groups, and paired-sample t-tests were used to compare the blooming artifact and lumen stenosis degree. Results:The PCD-CT image quality score was significantly higher than that of EID-CT [PCD-CT : 5 (4,5), EID-CT: 4 (4,5); Z=-21.38, P<0.001]. Compared to EID-CT, PCD-CT reduced the blooming artifact (PCD-CT: 38.88%±9.09%, EID-CT: 50.11%±11.52%; t=-12.97, P<0.001), significantly improving the subjective score for visualization of calcified plaques [PCD-CT: 5 (4,5), EID-CT: 3 (2,3); Z=-9.68, P<0.001], and the measured lumen stenosis was notably lower in PCD-CT(PCD-CT:34.88%±18.20%, EID-CT:45.31%±23.42%; t=-9.93, P<0.001). Among 129 analyzed calcified plaques, luminal stenosis was reduced on PCD-CT in 110 plaques (85.3%) and increased in 19 (14.7%), including 4 plaques that had unclear boundaries with the adjacent lumen in EID-CT CCTA images, making the stenosis difficult to assess. Conclusion:Compared to EID-CT, UHR PCD-CT for CCTA significantly improves coronary artery image quality, provides clearer visualization of calcified plaques and adjacent lumen details, and it can reduce the overestimation of coronary artery caleified plaque stenosis.

Objective:To develop a bacterial endotoxin detection method suitable for mRNA vaccines based on lipid nanoparticle(LNP)delivery system.Methods:The gel clot limit test outlined in the third section of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2020 edition)was utilized. Taking the human herpesvirus type 2 mRNA vaccine as the detection object,the optimal conditions for bacterial endotoxin detection were established by evaluating sample dilution factors,diluents,and other interfering elements. The results were validated using the recombinant C factor method. Finally,the applicability of the established method was validated through testing the respiratory syncytial virus mRNA vaccine and the shingles mRNA vaccine.Results:Increasing the sample dilution factor to 480 times with a magnesium-containing buffer and using 0.06 EU/ml tachypleus amebocyte lysate effectively mitigated the interference caused by LNP on the test results of the human herpesvirus type 2 mRNA vaccine,the respiratory syncytial virus mRNA vaccine,and the shingles mRNA vaccine. The results from recombinant C factor method and the gel clot limit method were consistent.Conclusion:A bacterial endotoxin gel clot limit detection method tailored for human herpesvirus type 2 mRNA vaccine,respiratory syncytial virus mRNA vaccine,and shingles mRNA vaccine is successfully developed based on existing protocols in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2020 edition). This study offers insights for the detection of bacterial endotoxin in LNP-based biological products.

Objective :
To investigate the role of single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNP) of glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4) gene in the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer.
Methods:
A total of 1 031 samples were selected, including 506 normal examiners and 525 patients with non-cardia gastric cancer.GPX4rs4807542, rs713041, rs2074451 and rs3746162 were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP). Unconditional Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between each SNP with the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer under the four genetic models.
Results :
The CT+TT genotype of rs713041 reduced the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer compared with the CC genotype(OR=0.699, 95%CI: 0.537-0.910). The GT+TT genotype of rs2074451 reduced the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer compared with the GG genotype(OR=0.681,95%CI: 0.520-0.893). The G-C-G-C haplotype, constructed by the four SNPs ofGPX4, was related to an increased risk of non-cardia gastric cancer(OR=1.262, 95%CI: 1.035-1.539), and G-T-T-C haplotype was related to a decreased risk of non-cardia gastric cancer(OR=0.784, 95%CI: 0.656-0.937). The fourth-order interaction ofGPX4rs4807542, rs713041, rs2074451 and rs3746162 played a synergistic effect in the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer(P<0.05).
Conclusion
GPX4rs713041 and rs2074451 are related to non-cardia gastric cancer susceptibility. The G-C-G-C haplotype composed ofGPX4rs4807542, rs713041, rs2074451 and rs3746162 is a risk factor for non-cardia gastric cancer, while the G-T-T-C haplotype is a protective factor. The interaction betweenGPX4rs4807542, rs713041, rs2074451 and rs3746162 is closely connected with the occurrence of non-cardia gastric cancer.

ObjectiveTo elucidate the critical role of rehabilitation medical records (including electronic records) in rehabilitation medicine's clinical practice and management, comprehensively analyzed the structure, core content and data standards of rehabilitation medical records, to develop a standardized medical record data architecture and core dataset suitable for rehabilitation medicine and to explore the application of rehabilitation data in performance evaluation and payment. MethodsBased on the regulatory documents Basic Specifications for Medical Record Writing and Basic Specifications for Electronic Medical Records (Trial) issued by National Health Commission of China, and referencing the World Health Organization (WHO) Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs) classifications, International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10/ICD-11), International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI Beta-3), this study constructed the data architecture, core content and data standards for rehabilitation medical records. Furthermore, it explored the application of rehabilitation record summary sheets (home page) data in rehabilitation medical statistics and payment methods, including Diagnosis-related Groups (DRG), Diagnosis-Intervention Packet (DIP) and Case Mix Index. ResultsThis study proposed a systematic standard framework for rehabilitation medical records, covering key components such as patient demographics, rehabilitation diagnosis, functional assessment, rehabilitation treatment prescriptions, progress evaluations and discharge summaries. The research analyzed the systematic application methods and data standards of ICD-10/ICD-11, ICF and ICHI Beta-3 in the fields of medical record terminology, coding and assessment. Constructing a standardized data structure and data standards for rehabilitation medical records can significantly improve the quality of data reporting based on the medical record summary sheet, thereby enhancing the quality control of rehabilitation services, effectively supporting the optimization of rehabilitation medical insurance payment mechanisms, and contributing to the establishment of rehabilitation medical performance evaluation and payment based on DRG and DIP. ConclusionStructured rehabilitation records and data standardization are crucial tools for quality control in rehabilitation. Systematically applying the three reference classifications of the WHO-FICs, and aligning with national medical record and electronic health record specifications, facilitate the development of a standardized rehabilitation record architecture and core dataset. Standardizing rehabilitation care pathways based on the ICF methodology, and developing ICF- and ICD-11-based rehabilitation assessment tools, auxiliary diagnostic and therapeutic systems, and supporting terminology and coding systems, can effectively enhance the quality of rehabilitation records and enable interoperability and sharing of rehabilitation data with other medical data, ultimately improving the quality and safety of rehabilitation services.

ObjectiveTo explore the data standard system of electronic medical records in the field of rehabilitation, focusing on the terminology and coding standards, data structure, and key content categories of rehabilitation electronic medical records. MethodsBased on the Administrative Norms for the Application of Electronic Medical Records issued by the National Health Commission of China, the electronic medical record standard architecture issued by the International Organization for Standardization and Health Level Seven (HL7), the framework of the World Health Organization Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs), Basic Architecture and Data Standards of Electronic Medical Records, Basic Data Set of Electronic Medical Records, and Specifications for Sharing Documents of Electronic Medical Records, the study constructed and organized the data structure, content, and data standards of rehabilitation electronic medical records. ResultsThe data structure of rehabilitation electronic medical records should strictly follow the structure of electronic medical records, including four levels (clinical document, document section, data set and data element) and four major content areas (basic information, diagnostic information, intervention information and cost information). Rehabilitation electronic medical records further integrated information related to rehabilitation needs and characteristics, emphasizing rehabilitation treatment, into clinical information. By fully applying the WHO-FICs reference classifications, rehabilitation electronic medical records could establish a standardized framework, diagnostic criteria, functional description tools, coding tools and terminology index tools for the coding, indexing, functional description, and analysis and interpretation of diseases and health problems. The study elaborated on the data structure and content categories of rehabilitation electronic medical records in four major categories, refined the granularity of reporting rehabilitation content in electronic medical records, and provided detailed data reporting guidance for rehabilitation electronic medical records. ConclusionThe standardization of rehabilitation electronic medical records is significant for improving the quality of rehabilitation medical services and promoting the rehabilitation process of patients. The development of rehabilitation electronic medical records must be based on the national and international standards. Under the general electronic medical records data structure and standards, a rehabilitation electronic medical records data system should be constructed which incorporates core data such as disease diagnosis, functional description and assessment, and rehabilitation interventions. The standardized rehabilitation electronic medical records scheme constructed in this study can support the improvement of standardization of rehabilitation electronic medical records data information.
