Objective:
To analyze the compliance status of physical fitness indicator and lifestyle characteristics among secondary vocational school students, as well as their associations, so as to provide a reference for physical fitness promotion among secondary vocational school students.
Methods:
Using a convenience sampling method, a questionnaire survey and physical fitness tests were conducted from September to December 2024 among 5 141 secondary vocational school students recruited from 16 secondary vocational schools across 8 provinces/municipalities in China, including Fujian, Chongqing, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hubei, Jiangxi, Shanghai and Zhejiang. Data on lifestyle factors were collected using a self designed questionnaire combined with standardized scales, including dietary habits, unhealthy behaviors, and 24 hour behaviors (physical activity, screen time, and sleep behavior). Multivariable Logistic regression model was used to analyze the associations of individual lifestyle behaviors and clustering of unhealthy lifestyle behaviors with non-compliance in physical fitness indicators among secondary vocational school students.
Results:
The compliance rates for waist circumference, vital capacity, grip strength, standing long jump, 30 second sit ups, 20 meter shuttle run, 50 meter dash, sit and reach, 20 second side steps among secondary vocational school students were 55.9%, 89.6%, 81.8%, 79.4%, 77.8%, 61.4%, 87.0%, 12.6%, and 63.5%, respectively, with a non-overweight/obesity rate of 78.9%. The reporting rates of daily breakfast consumption, milk consumption, and vegetable consumption were 58.9%, 18.3%, and 37.5%, respectively. The reporting rates of frequent takeout consumption, frequent sugar sweetened beverage consumption, smoking, alcohol drinking, insufficient moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), excessive screen time, and insufficient sleep were 30.0%, 43.8%, 8.4%, 15.8%, 42.9%, 90.8%, and 42.6%, respectively. Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that secondary vocational school students with insufficient MVPA had higher risks of non-compliance in vital capacity, grip strength, standing long jump, 30 second sit ups, 20 meter shuttle run, 50 meter dash, and 20 second side steps ( OR =1.22- 1.60 ); secondary vocational school students who consumed breakfast daily had lower risks of non-compliance in vital capacity and overweight/obesity ( OR =0.81, 0.85); daily vegetable consumption was associated with a lower risk of vital capacity non-compliance ( OR =0.72); frequent takeout consumption was associated with an increased risk of non-compliance in the sit and reach test ( OR =1.28); smoking was associated with increased risks of non-compliance in the 20 meter shuttle run and 20 second side steps ( OR =1.38, 1.58) (all P <0.05). Regarding the clustering of unhealthy behaviors, secondary vocational school students with 4- 5 clustered unhealthy behaviors had higher risks of non-compliance in waist circumference and standing long jump; those with≥6 clustered behaviors had higher risks of non-compliance in standing long jump, 20 meter shuttle run, and 20 second side step ( OR = 1.17-1.36, all P <0.05).
Conclusions
The clustering of unhealthy behaviors is negatively associated with physical fitness status among secondary vocational school students. Secondary vocational schools should prioritize the promotion of comprehensive lifestyle management to improve the physical fitness levels of secondary vocational school students.

Objective:To analyze clinical indicators and imaging data of hospitalized pneumonia patients and develop prediction models for length of hospital stay based on CT radiomics features and clinical indicators.Methods:Patients admitted to the First Clinical School of Hainan Medical University for pneumonia treatment between November 2020 and May 2024 were enrolled. Clinical data and CT imaging were collected, and radiomics features were extracted. Patients were divided into three groups based on the length of stay (<8 d, 8-28 d,>28 d, and poor prognosis). Three prediction models were constructed using logistic regression (LR): clinical features model, imaging features model and a combined clinical and imaging features model. The predictive performance of three models was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and DeLong test, followed by feature analysis. The Kappa test was used to compare the consistency of the overall classification.Results:A total of 343 subjects were included, with an average age of 61.46±20.98 years. The area under the curve (AUC) values of the combined model in different hospitalization duration classifications (<8 d, 8-28 d,>28 d, and poor prognosis) were 0.73, 0.65 and 0.78 in the training set, and 0.71, 0.65 and 0.76 in the validation set, respectively. The AUC values of the clinical feature model in different hospitalization duration classifications were 0.63, 0.64 and 0.73 in the training set, and 0.60, 0.52 and 0.63 in the validation set, respectively. The AUC values of the imaging feature model in different hospitalization duration classifications (<8 d, 8-28 d,>28 d, and poor prognosis) were 0.67, 0.66 and 0.73 in the training set, and 0.68, 0.54 and 0.66 in the validation set, respectively. The DeLong test results showed that the combined model outperformed other models in hospitalization duration classification (validation set AUC, all P<0.05, Bonferroni correction). Kappa test results showed that the combined model achieved the highest consistency between predicted classifications and actual hospitalization classifications ( K=0.615). Shape features, texture features and clinical features all contributed proportionally to the combined model. Conclusion:The combined model integrating radiomics features with clinical indicators can significantly enhance the predictive efficacy for the length of hospitalization in pneumonia patients.

Background and Aims:Tumor deposits(TDs)may influence prognosis beyond the current 8th edition AJCC pTNM nodal classification in gastric cancer(GC).This study investigates the prognostic value of TD number and proposes an improved pN staging(mpN)that classifies patients with TD number>1 as pN3b.We validated the mpN staging against the 8th AJCC pN staging.Methods:A dual-center retrospective cohort study was performed,including 1 327 patients who underwent radical gastrectomy at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center(2011-2015;test cohort)and 340 patients from Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital(2015-2022;validation cohort).Patients were dichotomized into low-TD(≤1)and high-TD(>1)groups.Outcomes were overall survival(OS)and disease-free survival(DFS).Survival analyses used Kaplan-Meier curves,IPTW,and Cox regression.Predictive performance of staging systems was assessed by time-dependent ROC(tROC)/tAUC,concordance index(C-index)and Akaike information criterion(AIC).Results:TDs were present in 435/1 327(32.7%)in the test cohort.Presence of TD was associated with worse OS(IPTW-adjusted HR=2.69,95%CI=2.18-3.31,P<0.01)and DFS(HR=2.82,95%CI=2.32-3.42,P<0.01).In multivariable models,TD remained an independent adverse factor for OS(HR=1.65,95%CI=1.34-2.05;P<0.01)and DFS(HR=1.74,95%CI=1.43-2.11,P<0.01).Increasing TD number correlated with progressively poorer survival;X-tile identified>1 as an optimal cutoff,with high-TD patients showing markedly worse outcomes(OS:adjusted HR=3.65,95%CI=2.74-4.88;DFS:adjusted HR=3.74,95%CI=2.85-4.91;both P<0.01).Incorporation of TD number into the mpN staging(assigning TD>1 to pN3b)improved prognostic discrimination:in the test cohort 5-year OS tAUC was 0.746 for mpN vs.0.703 for AJCC pN(C-index 0.738 vs.0.721,AIC 5 805.27 vs.5 849.30);similar improvements were observed in the validation cohort.Conclusion:TD presence and number exert significant negative prognostic impact in GC.Classifying patients with TD number>1 as pN3b enhances prognostic accuracy.Routine reporting of TD counts and further prospective multicenter validation of mpN staging are warranted.

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis,therapeutic strategy and early prognosis of Scimitar syndrome in pediatric patients.Methods:Clinical data of 21 children with Scimitar syndrome admitted to the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery of Shanghai Children's Medical Center from January 2014 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed,and divided into 11 cases in the infantile-type group and 10 cases in the adult-type group.Results:Twenty-one children with Scimitar syndrome,10 males and 11 females,aged 5 days to 10 years old. Compared with the adult-type group,the infant-type group had a high proportion of preoperative clinical symptoms( P<0.05),a high concomitant rate of intracardiac malformations (100% vs. 40%, P=0.002),a big size of aortopulmonary collateral(APC)[(0.77±0.25) mm/kg vs.(0.36±0.13) mm/kg, P=0.016],a high incidence of pulmonary hypertension(91.0% vs. 50.0%, P=0.038), and a high proportion of severe pulmonary hypertension(50 % vs. 0). There was a high rate of postoperative complications of low cardiac output syndrome (36.4% vs. 0, P=0.034),prolonged postoperative mechanical ventilation [(73.22±44.75) h vs. (19.5±12.79) h, P=0.007],and prolonged length of ICU stay[(7.89±3.37) d vs. (2.50±1.26) d, P<0.001]. Eleven cases underwent surgical treatment only,and 10 cases received hybrid operation with APC occlusion. The survival rate of the whole group was 90.5%,and there was no case of pulmonary venous obstruction in the early postoperative period. Systolic pulmonary artery pressure/systolic artery pressure decreased significantly after surgery in 15 children with pulmonary arterial hypertension( P<0.01).Five cases in the infantile-type group still had pulmonary hypertension. Conclusion:Surgical effect of Scimitar syndrome in pediatric patients is satisfactory. Infants with Scimitar syndrome usually have more severe symptoms, higher incidence of severe pulmonary hypertension and relatively longer postoperative recovery time.

Objective To investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of Shexiang Baoxin pill(SBP)on wire injury-induced valvular dysfunction in rats.Methods A rat model of aortic valve injury was established using a standardized wire injury method.Animals were randomly divided into control,sham,model,and SBP low-,medium-,and high-dose(SBP-L,SBP-M,SBP-H)intervention groups.Aortic valve function was evaluated using echocardiography.Histopathological changes were assessed using hematoxylin-eosin(HE)and Masson's staining.Serum levels of lipid peroxides(LPO),malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione(GSH),and total iron were measured using biochemical assays.Expression levels of ferroptosis-related proteins(ACSL4,SLC7A11,and GPX4)and osteogenic markers(RUNX2 and BMP2)in valve tissues were detected through Western blot and RT-qPCR.Results The SBP-M and SBP-H groups showed significantly higher aortic valve orifice areas((3.70±0.04)mm2 and(3.90±0.11)mm2 vs(2.25±0.37)mm2,P<0.0001),lower transvalvular pressure gradients((0.52±0.09)mmHg and(0.49±0.13)mmHg vs(0.90±0.17)mmHg,P<0.01),and lower aortic valve peak flow velocities((68.83±4.98)cm/s and(63.61±11.43)cm/s vs(87.14±11.22)cm/s,P<0.05,P<0.01)than those in the model group.HE and Masson's staining result demonstrated that SBP alleviates valve thickening and fibrosis(fibrotic area:(35.98±5.2)5%vs(53.01±2.44)%,P<0.01).Biochemical tests showed that SBP reduces serum levels of lipid peroxidation products(LPO and MDA)and total iron ions while increasing SOD and GSH levels(P<0.001,P<0.0001).SBP downregulated the ferroptosis-related protein ACSL4(P<0.01),upregulated the anti-ferroptosis proteins SLC7A11 and GPX4(P<0.05,P<0.01),and inhibited the expression of the osteogenic molecules RUNX2 and BMP2(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.0001).Conclusions SBP may alleviate mechanical injury-induced valve dysfunction in rats through the modulation of oxidative stress and restoration of iron homeostasis.These findings provide experimental evidence for the role of SBP in the early intervention of valvular disease.The precise active components,molecular targets,and clinical translation of SBP require further investigation.
