Objective:
To understand the home reading-writing levels among children and adolescents in Shanghai after school, and to explore its association with screening myopia, so as to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of myopia.
Methods:
From April to December 2024, 641 primary and middle school students were recruited from 2 urban schools and 1 rural school in Shanghai to participate in the survey. An illuminance meter was used to measure the illuminance of home reading-writing activities after school. Screening myopia was determined through visual acuity examination and refractive detection under non ciliary muscle paralysis conditions among children and adolescents. A binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between home reading-writing illuminance and screening myopia.
Results:
The detection rate of screening myopia among children and adolescents in Shanghai was 59.9%. The median home reading-writing illuminance after school was 340.9(112.2, 753.5) lx, and 45.4% was found of less than 300 lx. The family illuminance in the primary school stage [432.0 (136.9, 837.0) lx] was higher than that in the junior high school stage [113.1(53.7, 375.1) lx], and main urban area group [503.9 (212.6, 969.5) lx] was higher than that in the rural group [141.6 (53.7, 416.9) lx], the differences were statistically significant (Z=-7.56, -9.95,both P<0.05). The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the family illuminance of 150-500 lx, children and adolescents with family illuminance<150 and >500 lx had increased risks of screening myopia detection[OR(95%CI)=1.56(1.01-2.42), 1.74(1.15-2.62),both P<0.05].
Conclusions
The home reading-writing illuminance after school is suboptimal. Both excessively low and high home reading-writing illuminance levels are associated with screen-detected myopia. It is necessary for children and adolescents to improve lighting conditions during evening reading-writing activities, and strengthen health education according to different regions and school stages.
2.Current status of indoor light at night exposure during sleep among children and adolescents in Shanghai
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(9):1262-1265
Objective:
To understand the indoor light at night (LAN) exposure intensity during sleep among children and adolescents in Shanghai, so as to provide a basis for exploring potential health risks and formulating effective interventions.
Methods:
From April to December in 2024, a total of 628 students in grades 4-7 were recruited from three schools in Shanghai. A portable illuminance meter was used to measure LAN for one week, and participants recorded their sleep time. The Kruskal-Wallis H- test was used for comparison between groups, and the error bar chart was used to show the trend and variation range of average LAN exposure intensity in different sleep periods.
Results:
The indoor LAN exposure intensity of children and adolescents in Shanghai was [2.4(0.8, 5.9)lx] during sleep, and 28.8% of children and adolescents were exposed to indoor LAN≥5 lx. There was no significant differences in indoor LAN exposure intensity between boys [2.4(1.0, 5.9)lx] and girls [2.3(0.7, 5.9)lx] ( Z=-0.86, P > 0.05 ). The indoor LAN exposure intensity of primary school students [2.9(1.1, 6.6)lx] was higher than that of junior high school students [1.0(0.3, 3.1)lx] ( Z =-5.87), and indoor LAN exposure intensity of students in the main urban area [3.2(1.1, 7.8)lx] was higher than that of rural students [1.6(0.5, 4.3)lx] ( Z =-5.23)(both P <0.05). The indoor LAN exposure intensity showed an overall decreasing trend during sleep of children and adolescents ( tau=-0.81, P =0.02), with a slight increase before waking up.
Conclusions
Indoor LAN exposure intensity among children and adolescents in Shanghai is generally high, especially among primary school students and students living in the main urban area. Health policy and education should be strengthened to reduce the impact of LAN on children and adolescent health.
3.Compatibility and comfort assessment of school desks and chairs in three cities in China
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(3):321-324
Objective:
To understand the subjective and objective comfort evaluations of students from different age groups on desks and chairs, so as to provide reference for standardized allocation and use of desks and chairs.
Methods:
From January to April 2024, a total of 2 446 students were selected from 26 schools in 13 districts (counties/cities) in Shanghai, Tianjin, and Wuxi from Jiangsu Province by using cluster random method, including students in kindergartens, primary schools, junior high schools,senior high schools, colleges and universities. Standardized procedures were used to measure the height and weight of participants, and the matching desks and chairs models were selected according to the height. The subjective comfort of students on matching desks and chairs was investigated, and their objective comfort was evaluated by using a self designed questionnaire. The χ 2 test was used to analyze the differences of subjective perception and objective evaluation in comfort between different types of desks and chairs.
Results:
About 84.1% of the students subjectively thought that large desks and small chairs were very comfortable or relatively comfortable, followed by large desks and chairs (75.7%), and the proportion of small desks and chairs was the lowest among the three types (46.2%), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2=722.46, P <0.01). The reporting rates of primary school, junior high school and senior high school students who subjectively considered large desks and chairs to be very comfortable/relatively comfortable were higher than that of other types of desks and chairs, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ 2=297.49, 252.82, 343.67, P <0.01). However, there was no significant difference in the subjective comfort evaluation of different types of desks and chairs among kindergarten children ( χ 2=3.21, P >0.05), and 66.3% of the students in colleges and universities felt very comfortable/relatively comfortable when they used the matching standard desks and chairs. The objective evaluation results of the comfort for the three types of desks and chairs were consistent with the subjective evaluation, but the proportions of the objective evaluation as very comfortable/relatively comfortable were higher than that of the subjective evaluation ( χ 2=20.76- 813.47, P <0.01).
Conclusions
Large desks and chairs, as well as large desks with small chairs are perceived comfortable, while small desks and chairs are perceived less comfortable. It is recommended to match the large desks and chairs or large desks and small chairs that are suitable for them according to the "standard", to promote physical and mental health of students.
4.Comfort assessment of school desks and chairs ergonomics among students with different body types
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(3):325-329
Objective:
To investigate the differences in the comfort of desks and chairs furniture among students with different body types according to the standard, so as to provide a reference for guiding students with overweight and obesity to choose the correct study furniture and revising the standards.
Methods:
From January to April 2024, 2 443 students from 26 schools in 13 districts (counties/cities) in Shanghai, Tianjin, and Jiangsu Province were selected by the cluster random sampling method to conduct physical examination. The subjective and objective evaluations of the comfort of height matched desks and chairs were investigated. The students were divided into non overweight, overweight, and obesity groups according to relevant criteria, and stratified analysis was performed. The χ 2 test was used to analyze differences in the comfort evaluations of desks and chairs among students with different body types.
Results:
Among the 2 443 students surveyed, 16.7% and 12.6% were respectively classified as overweight and obese. All students assigned the highest comfort ratings to large desks and small chairs (84.1%), and consistency was observed between students subjective and objective evaluations. The reporting rate of samll desks and chairs of obesity students subjective evaluation was lower (36.8%) than that of overweight and non overweight/obesity students (52.1%, 48.0%) ( χ 2=14.63, P <0.01). The overweight and obese group of primary school students had a worse evaluation of the comfort of large desks and chairs and small desks and chairs than those of the non overweight and obese groups( χ 2=15.78, 7.63, P <0.05). Among high school students, the overweight and obese group had worse evaluation of the comfort of large desks and chairs, as well as large desks and small chairs, than those of the non-overweight and obese groups( χ 2=9.62, 11.77, P <0.05). The objective evaluations revealed low compliance ratings on the posture of the thighs and calves for naturally forming an angle greater than 90° (55.6%), and headroom height under the table (50.3%) with small desks and chairs ( χ 2=94.05, 166.47, P <0.05).
Conclusions
Compared with non overweight/obese students, students with overweight and obese students report poor comfort evaluations of height matched desks and chairs. Revision of the standard should consider the body types of students, and evaluations of the comfort of desks and chairs furniture by students with overweight and obesity should be improved.

Objective:To explore the association between healthy lifestyle and co-morbidity of overweight/obesity and myopia in adolescents.Methods:Based on the Shanghai Municipal Dynamic Cohort of Student Common Diseases, we used the group-based trajectory model (GBTM) to establish a model for the development of adolescents' healthy lifestyle trajectories aged 11-14 years and the Cox proportional hazard regression model to assess the effects of different healthy lifestyles on the co-morbidity of overweight/obesity and myopia in adolescents.Results:A total of 2 331 adolescents were included in the analysis. The average follow-up time was 1.87 years, with age of (11.44±0.45) years at the initial follow-up, among 1 106 boys and 1 225 girls. During the 2-year follow-up period, the incidence rates of overweight/obesity, myopia, and co-occurrence of overweight/obesity and myopia were 25.9%, 77.0%, and 13.7%, respectively. GBTM identified 3 healthy lifestyles: the unhealthy group (7.3%), the relatively healthy group (50.2%), and the healthy group (42.5%). The risk of overweight/obesity was lower in the relatively healthy group than in the unhealthy group ( HR=0.694, 95% CI: 0.508-0.947). There was no statistically significant association between the GBTM lifestyle subgroups and myopia ( P>0.05). The risk of co-occurrence of overweight/obesity and myopia was lower in both relatively healthy group and healthy group than in the unhealthy group (relatively healthy group: HR=0.515, 95% CI: 0.348-0.763; healthy group: HR=0.571, 95% CI: 0.384-0.849). Sensitivity analyses showed this result to be stable for myopia, overweight/obesity and myopia co-morbidities. Conclusion:Persistent unhealthy lifestyle increases the risk of overweight/obesity and myopia co-occurrence in adolescents.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and prognosis of biliary drainage via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) before steroid therapy in treating autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) complicated with obstructive jaundice.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of patients with AIP complicated with obstructive jaundice who received steroid therapy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from 2010 to 2023. Patients were divided into a drainage group (receiving ERCP biliary drainage before steroid therapy) and a steroid group (receiving only steroid therapy). Short-term efficacy, long-term efficacy, hospitalization costs and postoperative complications of ERCP biliary drainage were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 69 patients were included, with 32 in the drainage group, aged 62.78±11.21 years, which demonstrated significantly higher costs (34 816.57±11 688.85 yuan VS 16 518.50±6 544.37 yuan, t=7.0, P<0.001), with 25.00% (8/32) experiencing ERCP-related complications, compared with 37 patients in the steroid group, aged 55.41±2.15 years. There was no significant difference in hospitalization duration between the drainage group (10.38±4.56 days) and the steroid group (8.95±4.99 days, t=1.2, P=0.219). After 1 month of treatment, total bilirubin [118.5 (76.2, 309.3) μmol/L VS 48.7 (30.5, 148.4) μmol/L, U=1 728.5, P<0.001] and direct bilirubin [84.5 (47.7, 236.3) μmol/L VS 37.7 (18.3, 105.7) μmol/L, U=1 588.5, P=0.001] levels in the drainage group remained higher than those in the steroid group, while alanine aminotransferase levels were lower [74.0 (46.5,110.5) U/L VS 143.0 (51.0,253.5) U/L, U=769.0, P=0.006]. No significant differences were observed in these biochemical indices between the two groups at 4-month and 12-month follow-ups ( P>0.05). The recurrence rates were 28.1% (9/32) in the drainage group and 21.6% (8/37) in the steroid group, with no significant difference in recurrence rate between groups ( χ2=0.4, P=0.266). Conclusion:ERCP biliary drainage does not significantly improve long-term efficacy or reduce recurrence rates in AIP patients with obstructive jaundice. Instead, it increases the risk of postoperative complications and medical costs. Direct steroid therapy is safe and feasible for confirmed AIP with obstructive jaundice.
