Objective: To investigate the association between screen time (ST) during leisure time and anxiety-depression symptoms among middle school students, so as to provide a basis for formulating relevant intervention measures. Methods: From November to December 2023, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 2 542 students from junior and senior high school in Taiyuan City. A self designed questionnaire, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7), and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) were used to investigate ST and anxiety/depression symptoms among middle school students. The Logistic regression model was used to explore the association of ST with symptoms of anxiety and depression, as well as with anxiety and depression comorbiditles (CAD). Results: The detection rates of anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, and CAD were 13.69%, 15.77%, and 10.11%, respectively. The median ST was 2.00 h/d [interquartile range ( IQR =2.38) for weekly averages], with 0.33 h/d ( IQR =1.67) on work days and 5.00 h/d ( IQR=5.50) on rest days. Logistic regression analysis indicated that the total ST of mobile phones during rest days ( OR =1.07, 1.10, 1.11) and the averages ST of mobile phones over a week ( OR = 1.20 , 1.22, 1.29), as well as the total ST of all screen types during rest days ( OR =1.04, 1.04, 1.05) and the averages ST of all screen types over a week ( OR =1.08, 1.09, 1.21) were positively correlated with anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, and CAD (all P <0.01). Conclusions Among middle school students in Taiyuan City, screen time is positively correlated with symptoms of anxiety or depression and the comorbidity of anxiety and depression, especially smartphone screen time and weekend screen use. Therefore, measures should be implemented to reduce unnecessary screen time among middle school students, especially the use of mobile phones, in order to mitigate the occurrence of anxiety and depression.

AIM:To investigate the role of serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hsCRP)in the pathogenesis and progression of diabetic retinopathy(DR)in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).METHODS:A nested case-control study was conducted involving 187 T2DM patients(187 eyes)who attended at Eye Center, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2017 to October 2024. Patients were categorized into three groups: the diabetes mellitus(DM)group, non-proliferative DR(NPDR)group, and proliferative DR(PDR)group. Baseline information was collected, including age, sex, duration of DM, and duration of hypertension. All patients underwent fasting biochemical tests and comprehensive ophthalmic examinations.RESULTS: A positive correlation was observed between hsCRP and fasting blood glucose(FBG; P=0.004)and glycated hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c; P=0.048)by Spearman's rank correlation coefficient analysis. After adjusting for confounding factors, multivariable Logistic regression identified hsCRP as a significant risk factor for DR(OR=2.67, 95% CI: 1.19-5.96, P=0.017). CONCLUSION:Serum hsCRP is positively correlated with FBG and HbA1c and can serve as an important predictor of the severity of DR.

Objective To investigate the causal relationship between gut microbiota and obstruc-tive sleep apnea syndrome(OSA)using a two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization(MR)approach.Methods Eligible single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)were selected from genome-wide association study(GWAS)databases as instrumental variables.A bidirectional MR analysis was conducted to evaluate the causal effects between gut microbiota and OSA.Various statistical methods,including the inverse variance weighted(IVW)method,MR-Egger regression,the weighted model method,and the weighted median method,were employed for association assessment.The MR pleiot-ropy residual sum and outlier(MR-PRESSO)test,along with Cochran's Q test and the leave-one-out cross-validation method,were used to assess heterogeneity and pleiotropy.Results According to the IVW method analysis,an increased abundance of the genus Faecalibacterium(sp002397985)(OR=0.847,95％CI,0.719 to 0.997,P=0.046)was associated with a reduced risk of OSA.Conversely,increased abundances of the genera Bacteroides(OR=1.075,95％CI,1.016 to 1.138,P=0.012),Haemophilus(sp001679485)(OR=1.106,95％CI,1.016 to 1.203,P=0.021),Streptococcus(OR=1.168,95％CI,1.036 to 1.316,P=0.011),and Blautia(sp002159835)(OR=1.169,95％CI,1.035 to 1.319,P=0.012)were associated with an elevated risk of OSA.The reverse MR analysis revealed no significant association between the risk of OSA and the abundance of gut microbiota.The results of Cochran's Q test,MR-Egger test,and MR-PRESSO test indicated no het-erogeneity or horizontal pleiotropy(P＞0.05).Conclusion Causal relationships exist between the five genera(Faecalibacterium,Bacteroides,Haemophilus,Streptococcus,and Blautia)and the risk of OSA.

Healthy lifestyles and good living habits are effective strategies and important approaches to prevent chronic non-communicable diseases. With the development of evidence-based medicine, the evidence translation system has made some achievements in clinical practice. There is, however, no comprehensive, professional and efficient system for translating lifestyle evidence globally. Therefore, the Health Lifestyle Evidence (HLSE) Group of Lanzhou University constructed the HLSE Evidence Translation System (https://hlse.cn/), with the aim of synthesizing, evaluating, translating, and applying lifestyle-related evidence resources. This paper aims to introduce the functional module design of the evidence translation system, the system development process and testing, introduce the interface design and function demonstration, and explain the significance of constructing the HLSE.

Objective To study the quality comparability of human coagulation factor Ⅷ(FⅧ)produced before and after the change of factory site.Methods A comparative study was carried out on quality quantitative indexes,related im-purities and stability data of FⅧ produced before and after the change of factory site.Results The FⅧ quantitative quality before and after the change of factory site all met the quality standard,and the related impurities including aluminum resi-due,tributyl phosphate residue,polysorbate 80 residue and PEG residue all met the quality standard.Other impurities in-cluding human fibrinogen,fibronectin,plasminogen,IgA,IgM and IgG were extremely low in content and equivalent in quality.The content of VWF(von Willebrand factor)had no obvious change before and after the change of factory site,but was significantly higher than that of other domestic manufacturers'commercial products.The results of accelerated stability and long-term stability tests showed that the titer of FⅧ fluctuated within the methodological error range,and the results all met the quality standard.Conclusion The change of factory site of FⅧ has no effect on the quality.

To monitor and analyze the molecular variation of the H3N2 influenza virus in Guangzhou during the COVID-19 pandemic, respiratory samples of influenza-like cases from influenza monitoring sentinel hospitals were collected from influenza monitoring sentinel hospitals for virus isolation and whole genome sequencing. The results showed that during COVID-19, there was only one peak of H3N2 influenza in the second quarter of 2022 in Guangzhou (the positive rate was 52.23%), and the epidemic intensity and duration were both higher than those in 2019. The HA gene and NA gene of the epidemic strain in Guangzhou in 2022 belonged to the 3C.2a1b. 2a. 1a. 1 branch, which had a good antigenic site matching with the vaccine strain (A/Cambodia/e0826360/2020) from 2021 to 2022 and had no antigen drift. In 2022 strains, the variation of antigen determinant mainly occurred in the I48T of C region, while no variation occurred in the A, B, D, and E regions. The binding site of the HA protein receptor was consistent with the vaccine strain (A/Cambodia/e0826360/2020). Most of the strains in 2022 carried 13 glycosylation sites on the HA protein, but an outbreak of strains caused a loss of glycosylation sites at 24-NST. In conclusion, the strains that caused the epidemic of H3N2 influenza in Guangzhou in 2022 were not evolved or transmitted from the local strains in 2019 during the COVID-19 pandemic.
