Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(10):1395-1340
Objective:
To evaluate the effectiveness of a family-school collaborative intervention on sleep health among fifth-grade primary school students, so as to provide scientific evidence for promoting sleep health among primary school students.
Methods:
From April to June 2024, a baseline survey was conducted on 342 fifth-grade students and their parents from one primary school in a district of Beijing, using the convenient sampling method. A semester of sleep health education was implemented from September to December 2024, covering cognitive, behavioral and environmental factors that affected timely bedtime; and the program took various forms, including student courses, popular-science articles for parents, and personalized feedback reports. Another primary school in the same area was conveniently selected as the control group, where 313 fifth-grade students and their parents received routine health education. The subjects were assessed for their baseline and end-point (March to June 2025) sleep conditions using sleep diaries (222 participants in the intervention group and 225 in the control group) and accelerometers (120 participants in the intervention group and 88 in the control group), respectively. The independent samples t-test and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test were used to compare characteristics between groups,and linear mixed models were employed to evaluate the intervention effects.
Results:
In the sleep diary evaluation, the intervention group had an earlier weekend wake up time and a smaller social jetlag than the control group at baseline ( t/Z =3.42, 7.21); in the accelerometer evaluation, the intervention group exhibited a smaller social jetlag than the control group at baseline ( Z =3.90) (all P <0.05). In the sleep diary evaluation, compared with the control group, the intervention group showed a reduced pre-to-post change in school-day bedtime ( β = -6.70), whereas the pre-to-post changes in school-day sleep duration, weekend wake-up time, weekend sleep duration, and average sleep duration were all increased at baseline and at the end ( β =8.41, 22.58, 27.03,13.74) (all P <0.05). In the accelerometer evaluation, compared with the control group, the intervention group showed reduced pre-to-post changes in school-day sleep onset time and school-day wake time ( β =-14.75, -6.24), whereas the pre-to-post change in school-day sleep duration increased at baseline and at the end ( β =8.01) (all P <0.05).
Conclusion
A family-school collaborative sleep health intervention may be an effective strategy for improving sleep among fifth-grade primary school students.

Objective:To explore the impact of the two-way referral model on compliance and prognosis in patients with heart failure.Methods:This bidirectional cohort study enrolled chronic heart failure (CHF) patients treated at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University or designated primary hospitals between March 2018 and March 2022. Patients were categorized into two groups based on referral status: two-way referral group (participating in the referral model with≥1 follow-up visit at primary hospitals) and the core hospital group (receiving treatment and follow-up exclusively at Qilu Hospital). Baseline clinical characteristics were collected and compared between groups. Patients underwent followed-up, with primary endpoints including follow-up rate, drug (β-blockers, angiotension converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI)/angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blockers (ARB)/angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI), sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists) utilization rate and target dose achievement rate. Secondary endpoints encompassed changes from baseline in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd), and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), plus cardiovascular mortality and heart failure rehospitalization. Generalized linear mixed models analyzed longitudinal trends in LVEF, LVEDd, and NT-proBNP levels. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression evaluated LVEF recovery rates, supplemented by subgroup analyses. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify factors influencing target dose achievement rate for β-blockers and ACEI/ARB/ARNI therapies in CHF patients.Results:A total of 357 patients were enrolled, aged 53 (41, 63) years, including 256 males (71.7%). 157 patients were in the two-way referral group and 200 patients in the core hospital-treated group. Compared with the core hospital-treated group, the two-way referral group had lower baseline LVEF (28 (22, 34)% vs. 31 (23, 36)%, P=0.021) and systolic blood pressure (116 (104, 125) mmHg vs. 121 (109, 134) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), P=0.010). The 12-month follow-up rate of the two-way referral group was higher than the core hospital-treated group (73.8% vs. 56.0%, P=0.004). No significant between-group differences were observed in drug utilization rate of β-blockers, ACEI/ARB/ARNI, or sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors during follow-up (all P>0.05), while mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists use showed a declining trend in both groups. Although the core hospital-treated group had higher target dose achievement rates for β-blockers (65.4% vs. 49.3%, P=0.042) and ACEI/ARB/ARNI (79.8% vs. 65.8%, P=0.046) than the two-way referral group, multivariate logistic regression indicated that the two-way referral model was not a negative predictor for these outcomes (all P>0.05). Both groups showed improved NT-proBNP, LVEDd, and LVEF from baseline (all P<0.001) with no significant difference in trends between groups (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the composite incidence (7.6% vs. 6.5%, P=0.674) and cumulative incidence (log-rank P=0.684) of cardiovascular death and heart failure rehospitalization at 12 months between two groups. Conclusion:The two-way referral model demonstrates advantages in improving medication adherence, drug utilization rates, and targetdoseachievement rates among CHF patients. This model not only promotes cardiac functional recovery but also reduces risks of cardiovascular mortality and heart failure rehospitalization, achieving comparable therapeutic and management outcomes to those observed in core hospital-treated patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of lung transplantation and post-transplantation changes in patients with pneumoconiosis.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical and pathological data of 28 patients with pulmonary silicosis who underwent lung transplantation and were managed at the Department of Internal Medicine, Henan Provincial People′s Hospital, Zhengzhou, China from January 2015 to December 2024. Among them, 8 patients underwent lung biopsy 6-20 months after transplantation to evaluate the histopathological changes of the recipient and the donor lungs post-transplantation. The expression of relevant indicators was examined using immunohistochemical EnVision staining, while presence of microorganisms was assessed using histochemical special staining. The patients were all followed up.Results:Among the 28 patients with pneumoconiosis who underwent lung transplantation, 26 were male and 2 were female, with a male-to-female ratio of 13∶1. Their ages ranged from 23 to 68 years, median 50.0 (46.0, 53.5) years. They were diagnosed with pneumoconiosis at local occupational disease prevention and control centers for 3 to 15 years (mean, 9.65 years), including 13 left single lung transplants and 15 right single lung transplants. Gross examination showed fleshy nodules with irregular cystic cavities at the periphery. The cut surfaces exhibited gray-brown color and firm texture. Microscopically, most alveolar structures of the lung were obliterated, with nodular or diffuse proliferation of collagen fibers accompanied by hyaline degeneration. Focal massive carbon dust deposition and massive silicotic fibrosis were observed, surrounded by lung parenchyma with emphysematous changes and localized bullae formation. Seven patients underwent re-biopsy after transplantation that showed extensive infiltration of inflammatory cells. In 4 cases, microscopy revealed complete coagulative necrosis, with negative acid-fast staining and TB-DNA results. Of the 4 cases, 3 cases exhibited Aspergillus infection confirmed by Grocott′s methenamine silver and PAS stains, while 2 cases showed chronic bronchitis with squamous metaplasia. Follow-up revealed that 8 patients died of acute respiratory failure due to severe infection, while the remaining 20 demonstrated significant postoperative improvement in lung function.Conclusions:For patients with advanced pulmonary dust deposition disease who undergo lung transplantation, it is necessary to conduct standardized sampling and pathological assessment of the recipient lungs. In the early post-transplant period, the complications of re-biopsy tissues are mainly fungal infections. The combination of morphological manifestations and immunohistochemical detection is helpful to distinguish infection from rejection reactions. At the same time, it is essential to integrate clinical information and laboratory results to provide post-transplantation pathological assessment for individualized treatment.

Objective:To investigate the preventive effect of a subanesthetic dose of esketamine on emergence agitation (EA) in pediatric patients undergoing fracture fixation surgery under general anesthesia.Methods:This study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Eighty-two pediatric patients, aged 3-6 yr, with American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ, scheduled for elective closed reduction and internal fixation of humeral fractures at the People′s Hospital of Fuyang City from March 2023 to August 2024, were divided into 2 groups ( n=41 each) using simple random sampling: esketamine group (group E) and control group (group C). Group E received an intravenous injection of esketamine at a dose of 0.3 mg/kg before anesthesia induction, while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group C. The induction and maintenance of general anesthesia were the same in both groups. The drug was discontinued after operation and the children were transferred to the post-anesthesia care unit. The primary outcome was the occurrence of EA assessed using the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium scale. Secondary outcome measures included the acceptance of the facemask during anesthesia induction, the rate of propofol use during the emergence period, the Children′s Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale scores at awakening and at 2 and 6 h postoperatively, the requirement for rescue analgesia in the emergence period, and the occurrence of adverse reactions. Results:Compared with group C, the incidence of EA [38% (15/39) vs. 15% (6/40)] was significantly decreased, the usage rate of propofol during the emergence period was decreased, the degree of acceptance of the facemask during anesthesia induction was increased, and Children′s Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale scores at all time points and the rate of rescue analgesia in the emergence period were decreased in group E ( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of postoperative adverse reactions between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Administering a subanesthetic dose of esketamine before anesthesia induction can reduce the risk of EA in pediatric patients undergoing fracture fixation surgery under general anesthesia and raise the the quality of recovery with a high safety.
