Objective To investigate the needs of the main caregivers of patients with spinal cord injury following neurogenic bowel dysfunction to participate in the whole process of intestinal management.Methods Nine main caregivers of patients with spinal cord injury in Jiangsu Province Hospital from January to Decem-ber,2024 were selected with objective sampling method.They were investigated face-to-face semi-structured in-depth interviews,and the data were analyzed,summarized and extracted by Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results Three themes and eight sub-themes were extracted:the needs of professional knowledge and skills standards in intestinal management(lack of intestinal training knowledge,lack of ability to acquire knowledge and different standards of medical institutions);the needs of physical ability and decision making ability participating in intesti-nal training(lack of participation,single decision-making behavior,excessive dependence on medical personnel);the desire for therapeutic benefits and the needs for building psychological confidence(concerns about the pa-tient's prognosis,overdependence on medication).Conclusion Clinical medical staff should pay attention to the actual needs and difficulties faced by the main caregivers of patients with neurogenic bowel dysfunction to participate in the entire intestinal management,and construct targeted training programs,strengthen the skills and knowledge training,to enhance their autonomy and responsi-bility,to achieve the rehabilitation goal better.

Obesity is a non-communicable chronic disease whose increasing prevalence has contributed to a higher incidence of various obesity-related comorbidities,including type 2 diabetes,cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases,hyperlipidemia,hypertension,hyperuricemia,fatty liver disease,infertility and certain types of cancer.Nutritional intervention serves as the first-line and continuous approach in obesity management.However,its effectiveness heavily depends on patient compliance,which poses a challenge for some individuals and may lead to suboptimal weight loss outcomes.Pharmacotherapy has emerged as an important strategy for weight reduction due to its efficacy and convenience.Nonetheless,weight-loss medications are associated with limitations such as specific indications,adverse effects,and loss of muscle mass,highlighting the essential role of appropriate nutritional support as a foundation for drug therapy.This article reviewed the mechanisms of action,efficacy and common adverse reactions of the six weight-loss drugs approved in China,with a focus on the impact of combined nutritional interventions on enhancing treatment outcomes and mitigating adverse effects.The aim is to provide insights and evidence for optimizing clinical management strategies for obesity.

Objective To compare six existing Chinese standards related to visual disability,including Disability Assessment and Code for Life Insurance(Insurance Standard),Specification for Ability Assessment of Older Adults(Elderly Stan-dard),Grading of Disability due to Human Body Injury(Judicial Standard),Standard for Identify Work Ability—Gradation of Disability Caused by Work-related Injuries and Occupational Diseases(Work Injury Standard),Standard for Assessment of Disability Grades of Military Personnel(Military Standard),and Classification and Grading Criteria of Disability(Disability Classification Standard).Methods Based on the theoretical framework of International Classification of Functioning,Disability and Health(ICF)and International Classification of Diseases,the 11th Revision(ICD-11),and with reference to World Report on Vision(WRV),this study analyzed and compared five key dimensions of visual disability across the six stan-dards:definition,classification,grading,assessment methods and coding systems.Results In terms of definition,the insurance,work injury,military,and disability classification standards emphasized vi-sual structure and function,focusing on visual acuity and visual field;the insurance and elderly standards incor-porated activities and participation,reflecting the concept of functional vision;the judicial standard lacked a dedi-cated definition of visual disability.In terms of grading,each standard graded visual disability into different lev-els acoording to different functional indicators.In terms of coding,only the insurance standard adopted the ICF framework,while others used non-ICF numeric codes or lacked standardized coding.In terms of assessment tools,the elderly standard employed a customized perceptual and participation scoring system,while others re-lied primarily on vision charts.Conclusion Most current Chinese standards focus on impairments in visual function,with limited attention to activity limitations and participation restrictions.It is needed for incorporating the concept of functional vision,aligned with ICF and WRV,to establish a unified conceptual framework,terminology,coding system for visual disability,and comprehensive assessments that reflect not only impairments but also the impact on daily functioning and en-vironmental interaction.

Objective To compare six representative Chinese standards related to hearing disability in terms of conceptual frame-works,definitions,classification,grading and assessment.Methods Using the framework of International Classification of Functioning,Disability and Health(ICF),World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0(WHODAS 2.0),International Classification of Diseases,Elev-enth revision(ICD-11),and World Report on Hearing(WRH),six national standards,such as Disability Assess-ment and Code for Life Insurance(Insurance Standard),Specification for Ability Assessment of Older Adults(El-derly Standard),Grading of Disability due to Human Body Injury(Judicial Standard),Standard for Identify Work Ability—Gradation of Disability Caused by Work-related Injuries and Occupational Diseases(Work Injury Stan-dard),Standard for Assessment of Disability Grades of Military Personnel(Military Standard),and Classification and Grading Criteria of Disability(Disability Classification Standard),were analyzed in dimensions of defini-tions,coding systems,classification and grading methods,and assessment approaches.Results In terms of definitions,Insurance Standard was relatively comprehensive,covering the dimensions of body func-tion,activities and participation in ICF,which was consistent with the definition of functional hearing in the WRH.Elderly Standard focused on body function.Judicial,Work Injury and Military Standards were more in-clined to physiological damage,emphasizing auditory structure and sensory functions.Although Disability Clas-sification Standard covering dimensions of activities and participation,it did not elaborate on functional out-comes.In terms of classification and grading,different from the WRH's recommendation of 20 dB HL as the stan-dard for hearing impairment,most of the six standards still used 40 dB HL or above as the threshold.For grading levels,Insurance Standard had nine grades,while Judicial,Work Injury and Military Standards had seven grades,Elderly Standard had three grades,and Disability Classification Standard had four grades.The basis for grading relied more on physiological measurements rather than functional performance.In terms of coding systems,only Insurance Standard referred to ICF codes,while the others mostly used self-defined numerical sequences or grade codes.In terms of assessment methods,the WRH advocated a comprehensive assessment integrating auditory ability,self-reports and participation restrictions.However,currently,only Elderly Standard involved subjective sensory scoring,and the others still mainly relied on objective methods,such as pure-tone audiometers,lacking assessment dimensions for social participation and environmental factors.Conclusion Hearing disability should be defined from three levels:hearing structure and function,activity and participa-tion,and environmental factors.However,China's six standards adopt different definitions,classifications,grad-ing systems and assessment methods due to their varying purposes and application scenarios.The majority of these standards are primarily based on body function,specifically hearing loss.Future standards for hearing dis-ability need to consider the introduction of the concept of functional hearing,to determine hearing loss and its im-pact on activity and participation.

Objective To systematically compare five physical disability-related standards widely used in the fields of insurance,work related injury,forensic appraisal,and disability evaluation.The comparison covers definition,coding,classi-fication,grading,and assessment methods to reveal each standard's framework and methodology,and to provide evidence for integrating and optimizing physical disability standards.Methods Based on International Classification of Functioning,Disability and Health(ICF)and International Classifica-tion of Diseases,11th Revision(ICD-11),we analyzed and compared five physical disability-related standards,including Disability Assessment and Code for Life Insurance(Insurance Standard),Grading of Disability due to Human Body Injury(Judicial Standard),Standard for Identify Work Ability—Gradation of Disability Caused by Work-related Injuries and Occupational Diseases(Work Injury Standard),Standard for Assessment of Disability Grades of Military Personnel(Military Standard),and Classification and Grading Criteria of Disability(Disabili-ty Classification Standard).We examined definition,coding systems,classification,grading scales and assess-ment.Results According to the ICF framework,at the level of body functions and structures,physical disability mainly in-volved neuromusculoskeletal and movement related functions(b7),including joint and bone functions(b710-b729),muscle functions(b730-b749),and movement functions(b750-b789).At the activities and participation level,it primarily concerned mobility(d410-d499)and self care(d510-d599).Related conditions were commonly found in Certain infectious or parasitic diseases(01),Diseases of the nervous system(08),Diseases of the muscu-loskeletal system or connective tissue(15),Developmental anomalies(20),and Injury,poisoning or certain other consequences of external causes(22),etc.Among the five standards,only Disability Classification Standard ex-plicitly defined physical disability,yet its terminology did not followed ICF categories.Regarding coding,only the Insurance Standard adopted ICF codes;and the other four used self devised coding systems.The sub catego-ries in these physical disability standards did not fully cover all ICF categories relevant to physical disability.In terms of grading,Disability Classification Standard used a four level grading,whereas the other four standards employed ten level grading.Concerning assessment,all five emphasized evaluation of body structures and func-tions and involved daily activity capacity;however,WHO Disability Assessment Schedule(WHODAS 2.0)for comprehensive functional assessment,had not been proposed for evaluation of general functioning.Conclusion China has developed different physical disability standards to meet diverse needs.There are differences in definition,structure and content.It is necessary to revise and refine the relevant components of physical disabili-ty,including definition,classification,grading,coding and assessment,based on ICF and ICD-11,and to intro-duce WHODAS 2.0 as a comprehensive functional assessment tool.

Objective:To explore the association between different feeding methods during the first six months after birth and the physical growth of children aged 3 to 5 years.Methods:Data were from the "Taicang and Wuqiang mother-child cohort study"(TAWS) in China. Children were enrolled at birth between November 2016 and September 2020 and followed up at 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 12, 18, and 24 months, as well as at ages 3 to 5 years. Based on feeding methods within six months of age, children were categorized into an "exclusive breastfeeding group" and a "formula-feeding group". Birth-related information and feeding practices between 8 and 24 months were collected, alongside dietary habits, physical activity, and illness during preschool years. Height and weight of preschool children were measured to calculate height-for-age Z-score (HAZ), weight-for-age Z-score (WAZ), body mass index-for-age Z-score (BAZ), and the rates of stunting, underweight, wasting, overweight, and obesity. After adjusting for demographic factors, birth-related information, feeding practices between 8 to 24 months, preschool dietary habits, physical activity, and health status, multiple linear regression and logistic regression were adopted to analyze the influence of feeding methods within six months of age on the physical growth of children aged 3 to 5 years.Results:A total of 1 233 children were included, comprising 629 boys and 604 girls. The number of children aged 3, 4, and 5 years was 436, 406, and 391, respectively. About 754 children were categorized into the exclusive breastfeeding group and 479 into the formula-feeding group. Children who were introduced to formula milk within six months of age had higher HAZ (0.09±0.99), WAZ (0.24±1.07) and BAZ (0.26±1.11) scores at ages 3 to 5 compared to the exclusive breastfeeding group [HAZ, WAZ, and BAZ were (-0.04±0.92), (0.06±1.02) and (0.11±1.08), respectively]. After adjusting for confounding factors, multiple linear regression analysis showed that the β (95% CI) values for HAZ, WAZ and BAZ in the formula-feeding group were 0.16 (0.06-0.25), 0.17 (0.06-0.29) and 0.15 (0.02-0.27), respectively, compared to the exclusive breastfeeding group. After adjusting for confounding factors, the results of the multivariate logistic regression model indicated that there were no statistically significant differences in the risks of stunting, underweight, wasting, overweight, and obesity during the preschool years between the exclusive breastfeeding group and the formula-feeding group, with OR (95% CI) values of 1.04 (0.41-2.62), 0.99 (0.27-3.57), 1.63 (0.53-4.95), 1.08 (0.66-1.74), and 1.58 (0.70-3.60), respectively. Conclusion:Exclusive breastfeeding within six months of age does not increase the risk of undernutrition (including stunting, underweight or wasting) during preschool years. However, the introduction of formula feeding within six months of age significantly increases the physical growth level of the preschool stage.

The health and well-being of the elderly have become a focal point for all sectors of society. As an effective means of preventing and controlling infectious diseases, vaccination plays a critical role in safeguarding human health. For older adults, timely and scientifically guided vaccination can significantly reduce the risk of serious illnesses while alleviating the associated economic burdens and pressure imposed on society. However, in practice, deficiencies in policy support, accessibility of vaccination services, and public awareness hinder some elderly individuals from fully benefiting from the protective effects of vaccines. This paper analyzes current vaccination practices for the elderly globally and proposes strategies to improve vaccination coverage, providing a scientific basis for advancing effective vaccination initiatives for this demographic in China.

As an important setting for the administration of vaccinations, the reasonable setting up and standardized management of vaccination clinics will enhance immunization service quality, public satisfaction, and improve the vaccination rate to protect people′s health. In recent years, various provinces in China are continuously promoting the standardized construction and management of vaccination clinics. However, the level of standardization management remains unbalanced, and the capacity of vaccination services needs to be further improved. This paper reviews the standardized management process of vaccination clinics, summarizes the practice and achievements in various regions, and analyzes the challenges and issues during these processes, to provide reference for improving the standardized management level of vaccination clinics in the future.

Vaccination has become one of the key public health interventions for reducing child mortality. With the implementation of the expanded programme on immunization, the number of vaccine types children need to receive is increasing, necessitating further optimization of childhood immunization strategies. The World Health Organization recommends simultaneous vaccination as one of the core strategies for optimizing childhood immunization schedules. This article analyzes the current status, challenges, and prospects of simultaneous vaccination strategies for children in China, aiming to provide a scientific basis for promoting and implementing strategies for the simultaneous administration of multiple vaccines to children.
