Objective:To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of overweight and obesity among Chinese children aged 3-18 years from 11 provinces, antonomous regions, or municipalities.Methods:This national cross-sectional community health survey utilized a multistage stratified cluster-random sampling method to recruit 193 997 nationally representative participants from 11 provinces, autonomous regions, or municipalities between January 2017 and December 2019. All participants underwent physical examinations, and their caregivers completed questionnaires assessing participants′ dietary, lifestyle, familial, and perinatal information. Multilevel multinomial logistic regression models were employed to identify the potential risk factors.Results:The cohort comprised 193 997 children (102 178 boys, 91 819 girls),aged (10±4) years. Overall prevalence rates were 30 574(15.8%)overweight children and 17 217(8.9%) obesity children. Boys exhibited higher overweight and obesity rates than girls (17.0% (17 368/102 178) vs. 14.4% (13 206/102 178), 11.3% (11 553/91 819) vs. 6.2% (5 664/91 819), χ2=249.12,1 578.69,both P<0.001). The detection rates of obesity in Tanner stage 2 and 3 were the highest in boys and girls, with 13.4%(2 231/16 665) and 8.6%(880/10 221) respectively. Risk factors for obesity included parental overweight (paternal OR=2.34 and maternal OR=2.29), annual household income of 100 000-200 000 yuan (compared with<100 000 yuan, OR=1.04), higher paternal education (compared with below high school,high school and a college education OR=1.09,1.14), birth weight >4.0 kg (≤5 and>5 years old OR=1.74, 1.44,respectively), and western food consumption≥1 time/month (compared with<1, 1-2, 3-4,>4 times/month OR=1.36, 1.30, 1.67(≤5 years), 1.19, 1.16, 1.15 (>5 years), respectively) (all P<0.05). Conversely, coarse grain intake≥1 times/week (compared with<1 times/week, every day, 3-4, 1-2 times/week OR=0.74, 0.80, 0.71 (≤5 years), 0.75, 0.87, 0.90(>5 years), respectively, all P<0.05) was associated with reduced obesity risk. Conclusions:Obesity epidemiology in children demonstrates significant heterogeneity across age, gender, geographic regions, and pubertal stages. It is necessary to establish a personalized prevention and control strategy.

Objective:To investigate the effect of low-dose aspirin combined with dydrogesterone in the treatment of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) complicated with infertility and its influence on hormones and helper T cytokines.Methods:300 PCOS patients with infertility in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University were selected from January 2018 to October 2023. A prospective randomized controlled study was performed. The study subjects were divided into control group and observation group by random envelope method, with 150 cases in each group. The control group was treated with dydrogesterone on the basis of routine intervention, while the observation group was combined with low-dose aspirin on the basis of the control group. The efficacy, pregnancy rate, hormones, Th1 and Th2 cytokines and incidence of adverse reactions were compared in between groups. Measurement data with normal distribution was represented by xˉ± s. Comparison between groups was performed by two-sample t-test and paired t-test was used for comparison before and after treatment. Enumeration data was represented by n(%). Comparison between groups was performed by χ2 test. Results:After treatment, the total effective rate of treatment and pregnancy rate in observation group were higher than those in control group [86.00%(129/150) vs. 74.67% (112/150), 63.33% (95/150) vs. 47.33% (71/150)] ( χ2=6.10, P=0.014, χ2=6.73, P=0.010). Serum levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in both groups were lower after treatment than those before treatment, and the levels in observation group were lower than those in control group [(5.27±1.01) U/L vs. (6.40±1.13) U/L, (6.78±0.87) U/L vs. (7.16±0.91) U/L], and serum estradiol level was higher than that before treatment, and the level in observation group was higher compared to control group [(93.35±8.17) ng/L vs. (82.45±9.14) ng/L] ( t=9.13, 3.70, 10.89, all P<0.001). After treatment, serum γ-interferon, interleukin (IL-2), IL-4 and IL-6 levels were all lower in both groups than those before treatment, and the above levels were lower in observation group than those in control group [(56.96±4.64) ng/L vs. (61.36±4.41) ng/L, (38.74±7.43) ng/L vs.(45.63±8.64) ng/L, (41.03±7.06) ng/L vs. (43.36±8.12 ng/L), (23.14±4.33) ng/L vs. (27.14±5.14) ng/L] ( t=8.42, 7.40, 2.65, 7.29, P<0.001, <0.0 010.008, <0.001). There was no statistical significance in the total incidence rate of adverse reactions between observation group and control group [12.67%(22/150) vs. 9.33% (14/150), χ2=0.85, P=0.356]. Conclusions:Low-dose aspirin combined with dydrogesterone has a significant clinical effect in the treatment of PCOS with infertility, and it can improve 3-month pregnancy rate, and effectively regulate hormones levels and Th1 and Th2 cytokines, and it will not increase adverse reactions, with high safety.
