Objective:
To analyze the relationship between 24 h movement behaviors and cognitive function in children and adolescents, as well as the isotemporal substitution benefits, in order to provide a basis for developing cognitive development intervention strategies among children and adolescents.
Methods:
Relevant studies were searched in the Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, EBSCO, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases from their inception to November 30, 2024. Systematic evaluation was performed after document screening, data extraction and quality assessment.
Results:
A total of 24 highquality studies were included, comprising 35 295 children and adolescents aged 3-18 years. Adhering to the 24 h activity guidelines was associated with better cognitive performance (19 studies). Additionally, substituting 5-30 minutes per day of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) or sleep (SLP) for sedentary behavior (SB) or light physical activity (LPA) were associated with improvements in cognitive function (7 studies). There were inconsistencies in the effects of different types of SB (learning or entertainment) on cognitive function.
Conclusions
Adherence to the 24 h activity guidelines supports cognitive development in children and adolescents, with MVPA and SLP as key intervention targets. Increasing the proportion of MVPA, ensuring adequate SLP, and limiting recreational SB and screen time might be helpful to enhance the combined benefits of these three behaviors.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Qidan Tangshen Granules (芪丹糖肾颗粒, QTG) in the treatment of early diabetic kidney disease (DKD) with qi deficiency, blood stasis, and kidney deficiency syndrome, and to explore its mechanism. MethodsA double-blind, double-simulated method was used to enroll 200 patients with early DKD and qi deficiency, blood stasis, and kidney deficiency syndrome. Patients were randomly assigned in a 1∶1 ratio to the treatment group (100 cases) and the control group (100 cases). The treatment group received QTG plus a valsartan capsule simulant, while the control group received valsartan capsules plus a QTG simulant, both for 12 weeks. The primary outcome was the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). Secondary outcomes included estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (PBG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores (including individual symptom scores for fatigue, dull complexion, soreness and weakness of the waist and knees, headache and chest pain, irritability, spontaneous sweating, thirst and polydipsia, polyphagia, polyuria, numbness of the limbs, and the total TCM syndrome score). Oxidative stress markers including serum 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHDG), 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were also assessed. Clinical efficacy and TCM syndrome efficacy were evaluated after treatment, and routine blood tests, urinalysis, and liver function tests were conducted and adverse reaction during the tria was recorded to assess safety. ResultsA total of 191 patients completed the study (95 in the treatment group and 96 in the control group). The treatment group showed significant reductions in UACR, FBG, PBG, and HbA1c levels after treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The single TCM symptom scores except for polyphagia and total TCM syndrome scores significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared to the control group, the treatment group had signi-ficantly lower UACR, FBG, PBG levels, and total TCM syndrome scores, sinlge symptoms scores except for polyphagia and limb numbness (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Among 40 randomly selected patients (21 cases in the treatment group and 19 cases in the control group) for oxidative stress analysis, there were no significant differences in SOD, 3-NT, and 8-OHDG levels before and after treatment within or between groups (P>0.05). The overall effective rate in the treatment group was 64.2% (61/95) and 39.6% (38/96) in the control group, while the TCM syndrome efficacy rates were 80.0% (76/95) and 24.0% (23/96), respectively, with the treatment group showing superior efficacy (P<0.01). No significant differences were observed in routine blood tests, urinalysis, or liver function indices before and after treatment in either group (P>0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions was 8.4% (8/95) in the treatment group and 9.4% (9/96) in the control group, with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). ConclusionQTG can effectively reduce UACR and blood glucose levels, alleviate clinical symptoms, and improve clinical efficacy in patients with early DKD with qi deficiency, blood stasis, and kidney deficiency syndrome. The treatment is well-tolerated and safe, with no significant impact on oxidative stress markers.

AIM: To compare the efficacy of different intraocular lens(IOL)fixation in aphakic patients lacking capsule support.METHODS:Retrospective study. Totally 120 cases(120 eyes)of aphakia patients who lacked capsule support admitted to our hospital from June 2019 to June 2024 were selected as the study subjects and randomly assigned into group A and group B, with 60 cases in each group. Group A underwent subcapsular IOL deep scleral fixation, while group B underwent IOL suture suspension fixation in the ciliary groove. The surgery time, uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), intraocular pressure(IOP), corneal endothelial cell density(CECD), corneal endothelial cell loss rate, and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups before and at 1, 3, 6 mo after surgery.RESULTS:The operation time of the group A was lower than that of the group B(24.69±2.69 vs. 32.75±3.75 min, t=11.937, P<0.05). The UCVA and BCVA in both groups were better than those before operation, and the group A was better than the group B(all P<0.05). The loss rates of corneal endothelial cells in the group A were lower than those in the group B at 1, 3 and 6 mo after surgery, the IOP in the group A was lower than that in the group B at 1 mo after surgery, and the CECD in the group A was higher than the group B(all P<0.05). The 3 eyes(5.0%)of the postoperative IOL ectopic in the group A were less than 11 eyes in the group B(18.3%, P=0.023).CONCLUSION:Subcapsular IOL deep scleral fixation has prominent curative effects on aphakic patients who lack capsule support. It helps improve vision, with less operation time, and fewer postoperative complications.

Background Temporal kurtosis (without frequency weighting, i.e., Z-weighted kurtosis) can evaluate noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). However, few studies have considered the function of frequency weighting (A- or C-weighted) kurtosis on NIHL. Objective To study the significance of A- and C-weighted kurtosis adjustment for equivalent sound level (L'EX,8 h) in evaluating occupational hearing loss. Methods A cross-sectional survey was used to select 973 noise-exposed workers in seven industries as the subjects. The noise exposure of all workers was assessed by distributions of A-, C-, and Z-weighted kurtosis (e.g., KA, KC, and KZ) and respective adjusted equivalent sound level (e.g., L'EX,8 h-KA, L'EX,8 h-KC, and L'EX,8 h-KZ). The significance of A- and C-weighted kurtosis in evaluating NIHL was evaluated by correlations between three types of L'EX,8 h and NIHL, and improvement of noise-induced permanent threshold shift (NIPTS) underestimation predicted by the ISO prediction model (Acoustics—Estimation of noise-induced hearing loss, ISO 1999-2013). Results The median KA, KC, and KZ were 68.33, 28.22, and 19.82, respectively. The binary logistic regression showed that LEX, 8 h-KA, LEX, 8 h-KC, and L'EX, 8 h-KZ were risk factors for NIHL (OR>1, P<0.001). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve showed that when the outcome variable was noise-induced hearing impairment (NIHI), the areas under the curves corresponding to L'EX,8 h-KA, L'EX,8 h-KC, and L'EX,8 h-KZ were 0.625, 0.628, and 0.625, respectively. When the outcome variable was high-frequency noise-induced hearing loss (HFNIHL), the areas under the curves corresponding to L'EX,8 h-KA, L'EX, 8 h-KC, and L'EX,8 h-KZ were 0.624, 0.623, and 0.622, respectively (P<0.05). The order of underestimation improvement values predicted by L'EX,8 h for NIPTS1234 was: L'EX,8 h-KA (4.68 dB HL)>L'EX,8 h-KC (4.38 dB HL)>L'EX,8 h-KZ (4.28 dB HL) (P<0.001). The order of underestimation improvement values predicted by L'EX,8 h-K for NIPTS346 was: L'EX,8 h-KA (7.20 dB HL)>L'EX,8 h-KC (6.83 dB HL)>L'EX,8 h-KZ (6.71 dB HL) (P<0.001). Conclusion The adjustment of A- and C-weighted kurtosis to equivalent sound level LEX,8 h can effectively improve the accuracy of the ISO 1999 prediction model in NIPTS prediction, and compared with the C-weighted, the A-weighted kurtosis can improve the result of the ISO 1999 prediction model in terms of underestimating NIPTS.
