Objective: To develop a health literacy evaluation scale for Chinese high school students, providing a tool for dynamic monitoring of health literacy among high school students and evaluating the effectiveness of health school construction. Methods: Through theoretical research, an evaluation index system for health literacy of Chinese high school students was constructed. Two rounds of Delphi expert consultations were conducted to quantitatively screen the items, and the item pool was revised based on expert opinions to compile the health literacy evaluation scale for Chinese students. Two focus group interviews were held to collect suggestions from health educators, high school teachers, and high school students regarding optimized scale length, question types, difficulty and wording of the scale. The scale was revised accordingly. A pilot survey was conducted in Beijing and Tianjin in November 2024, and the reliability and validity of the scale were evaluated based on the pilot survey data. Results: The response rate in both rounds of Delphi expert consultations was over 80%, and the expert authority coefficient was over 0.70. The expert opinions were highly concentrated, and the dispersion was small. The revised item pool based on expert opinions contained 39 items. The revised scale based on the suggestions and opinions collected from the focus group interviews had a moderate number of questions and difficulty level. The pilot survey obtained 800 valid responses, with the response rate of 89.39%. The Cronbach α coefficient of the scale was 0.911, χ 2/df =3.321, the root mean square error of approximation was 0.054, the adjusted goodness-of-fit index was 0.991 , and the factor loadings of some items were less than 0.40. Conclusion The health literacy evaluation scale for Chinese high school students demonstrates scientific rigor and practical applicability, with good internal consistency and structural validity.

Objective To explore the application value of iterative model reconstruction(IMR)technique in low-dose lumbar CT scanning.Methods A total of 48 patients who underwent lumbar CT plain scan were selected and divided into regular-dose group(group A)and ultra-low dose group(group B).The group A underwent imaging with 120 kV tube voltage,automatic tube current modulation technology,and iDose 4 reconstruction.The group B was scanned with a tube voltage of 100 kV and a tube current of 80 mAs,and the images of B1 and B2 groups were reconstructed by iDose 4 and IMR,respectively.The standard deviation(SD)value(the SD value represents the noise of the measured tissue),signal-to-noise ratio(SNR),and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)of cancellous bone,intervertebral disc,dural sac,and psoas muscle were measured and calculated at the L3-L4 vertebral body level.Two diagnosticians rated the image quality.Sample t-test and ANOVA were used to compare the measurement results and subjective scores.Results The comparison of SD for intervertebral disc,dural sac,and psoas muscle showed group B2＜group A＜group B1,while the subjective score comparison indicated group A＞group B2＞group B1.The SNR for intervertebral disc and psoas muscle demonstrated group B2＞group A＞group B1.There was no significant difference in bone quality score between group A and group B1(P＞0.05),but there was a significantly different between the bone quality scores of group B2 and those obtained with iDose 4 reconstruction(group A and group B1)(P＜0.05).The effective dose(ED)of group B was reduced by approximately 70.28％compared with group A.Conclusion IMR can significantly reduce SD,improves SNR and CNR,resulting in high-quality images.Compared to iDose 4 technique,IMR has more advantages in soft tissue display,while iDose 4 technique is superior in observing fine bone structures.The combined application of iDose 4 and IMR technique ensures high-quality images for diagnosis,while significantly reducing the radiation dose to patients.

Objective: To develop and validate a health literacy assessment scale for junior high school students, providing an effective tool for evaluating and monitoring health literacy among Chinese adolescents. Methods: Based on school health education policy documents, a health literacy assessment framework was constructed, comprising five horizontal and four vertical dimensions. From May to June and August to September in 2024, the framework was refined through Delphi expert consultations and focus group discussions, leading to the development of the Health Literacy Assessment Scale for Junior High School Students. In September 2024, a convenience sample of 625 students from three junior high schools in Beijing and Tianjin completed the questionnaire. Item analysis, reliability, and validity tests were conducted to evaluate the scale. Results: The recovery rate for two rounds of expert consultation questionnaires was 100%. The expert authority coefficients ( Cr ) were 0.86 and 0.87 respectively (both >0.70), with Kendall W values of 0.34 and 0.27 ( P <0.05). The focus group discussions followed a rigorous structure, and after multiple rounds of item screening and revision, the version 3.0 of the junior high school students health literacy assessment scale was developed, comprising 57 items. Three items that failed to meet the comprehensive screening criteria were preliminarily removed, and the final scale contained 54 items. The scale demonstrated excellent reliability, with an overall Cronbach s α coefficient of 0.92 and split half reliability of 0.93. Confirmatory factor analysis [ χ 2/df =2.094, root mean square error of approximation ( RMSEA )=0.042, comparative fit index ( CFI )=0.911, Tucker Lewis index ( TLI )=0.907] indicated good model fit indices. Conclusions The preliminary development of the health literacy assessment scale for junior high school students follows a rigorous item screening process with well designed dimensions, demonstrating good reliability and validity, thus serving as an appropriate evaluation tool for adolescent health literacy.

Objective:To investigate the factors influencing the decision to delivery interval (DDI) in emergency cesarean section in Guangzhou and the impact of DDI on maternal-infant outcomes.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on clinical data of pregnant women who underwent emergency cesarean section at municipal and district maternal and child health hospitals in Guangzhou city in 2021. Per the classification method of emergency cesarean section and recommendations for DDI provided by National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence guidelines, these subjects were classified into Category Ⅰ and Category Ⅱ cesarean sections. Each category was further divided into two subgroups based on DDI: the Category Ⅰ group into >30 min and ≤30 min subgroups, and the Category Ⅱ group into >75 min and ≤75 min subgroups. Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test, two independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and logistic regression were used to analyze the potential factors influencing DDI and the impact of DDI on maternal-infant outcomes. Results:(1) Totally 502 women underwent urgent cesarean section, including 304 (60.6%) Category Ⅰ and 198 (39.4%) Category Ⅱ, were analyzed. Among the Category Ⅰ group, 30.3% (92/304) achieved a DDI of ≤30 min, while 37.4% (74/198) of Category Ⅱ cases had a DDI of ≤75 min. (2) For the Category Ⅰ cases, multivariate logistic regression showed that more patients under intravertebral anesthesia, than those under general anesthesia, had a DDI >30 min ( OR=14.04, 95% CI: 6.14-32.10) as well as more with ward-based emergencies than those with delivery room emergencies ( OR=3.21, 95% CI: 1.72-6.00, both P=0.001). Among the Category Ⅱ cases, logistic regression revealed that cesarean section during routine working hours was more likely to achieve DDI >75 min than that during resting hours ( OR=3.93, 95% CI: 2.03-7.63, P=0.001). The risk of DDI >75 min was higher in tertiary maternal and child health hospitals compared with secondary maternal and child health hospitals ( OR=2.45, 95% CI: 1.06-5.70, P=0.037). (3) Among the Category Ⅰ cases, compared with the DDI ≤30 min group, the DDI >30 min group had a lower risk of neonatal Apgar score ≤7 at 1 min ( OR=0.31, 95% CI: 0.14-0.69, P=0.004), but there was no significant difference in the risk of neonatal Apgar score ≤7 at 5 min ( OR=0.21, 95% CI: 0.04-1.17) or neonatal asphyxia ( OR=0.32, 95% CI: 0.07-1.44) between the two subgroups. In cases of Category Ⅱ cesarean sections, there was no significant difference in any maternal-infant outcomes between DDI ≤75 min and DDI >75 min subgroups. Conclusions:The location of emergency and types of anesthesia are the influencing factors of DDI for Category Ⅰ cesarean sections, while the operation time and level of maternal and child health hospital are the influencing factors of DDI for Category Ⅱ cesarean sections. We did not find any impact of DDI on maternal or infant outcome.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of anaprazole (40 mg and 60 mg) and compared with rabeprazole (20 mg) in the treatment of reflux esophagitis (RE).Methods:This multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, positive drug parallel controlled study was led by the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University (Shanghai Changhai Hospital) and a total of 24 clinical trial institutions nationwide including the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, Yichun People′s Hospital, Meihekou Central Hospital, the First Affiliated Hospital of Gannan Medical University, and Jinhua Central Hospital, participated in this research. A total of 156 patients with RE (Los Angeles grade A to D) were enrolled and randomly divided into 3 groups, anaprazole 40 mg group, anaprazole 60 mg group and rabeprazole 20 mg group, using a random number table in a ratio of 1∶1∶1. Patients in the above 3 groups were treated with the appropriate trial medication once per day for 4 or 8 weeks. The endoscopic healing rates were evaluated by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) and investigators. In addition, the improvement in the severity of individual symptoms (daytime reflux, daytime heartburn, nighttime reflux, nighttime heartburn) and medication safety were also evaluated. The endoscopic healing rates and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) at week-8 and -4 were calculated by groups, as well as the difference in the healing rates and their 95% CI among groups. The chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 153 subjects were included in the full analysis set (FAS), 144 in the per-protocol analysis set (PPS) and 151 in the safety set (SS). In the FAS, after 8 weeks of treatment, the endoscopic healing rates of anaprazole 40 mg group, anaprazde 60 mg group and raberazole 20 mg group blindly assessed by BICR were 86.0% (43/50), 86.5% (45/52) and 86.3% (44/51), respectively, and the 95% CI were 76.4% to 95.6%, 77.3% to 95.8% and 76.8% to 95.7%, respectively.The endoscopic healing rates of anaprazole 40 mg group, anaprazde 60 mg group and raberazole 20 mg group blindly evaluated by investigators were 88.0% (44/50), 90.4% (47/52) and 86.3% (44/51), respectively, and the 95% CI were 79.0% to 97.0%, 82.4% to 98.4% and 76.8% to 95.7%, respectively. The endoscopic healing rates were similar among groups. In the FAS, the differences in healing rates(95% CI) assessed by BICR and investigators between anaprazole 40 mg, anaprazole 60 mg and rabeprazole 20 mg group were -0.3%(-13.7% to 13.2%), 0.6%(-12.3% to 13.6%), respectively and 1.7%(-11.3% to 14.8%), 3.9%(-8.5% to 16.3%), respectively. The results of the PPS were consistent with those of the FAS. After 8 weeks of treatment, the severity scores of individual symptoms (daytime reflux, daytime heartburn, nighttime reflux, nighttime heartburn) decreased in all groups. The differences between post-treatment and baseline in anaprazole 40 mg group, anaprazole 60 mg group and rabeprazole 20 mg group were -1.54±1.00, -1.91±1.00, -1.51±0.76, -1.45±0.71; -1.30±0.94, -1.59±0.96, -1.33±0.65, -1.42±0.60; and -1.74±0.85, -1.76±0.93, -1.45±0.66, -1.66±0.79, respectively. The incidence of treatment emergent adverse event of anaprazole 40 mg group, anaprazole 60 mg group and rabeprazole 20 mg group were 57.1% (28/49), 48.1% (25/52) and 60.0% (30/50), respectively, and the incidence of treatment related adverse event were 18.4% (9/24), 25.0% (13/52) and 24.0% (12/50), respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of treatment emergent adverse event and treatment related adverse event among 3 groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The efficacy and safety of anaprazole 40, 60 mg/d, and rabeprazole 20 mg/d in the treatment of RE are comparable.

Objective:To study the role of myocardial work parameters in early identification of myocardial injury in neonatal asphyxia.Methods:From July 2020 to December 2021, neonates diagnosed with mild neonatal asphyxia admitted to the Department of Neonatology of our hospital within 24 h after birth were prospectively enrolled into the asphyxia group. Neonates without asphyxia during the same period were selected as the control group and matched with the asphyxia group for gender, gestational age and birth weight at a ratio of 1:1~1:2. The asphyxia group was subgrouped into preterm asphyxia group and term asphyxia group. All neonates received echocardiography within 24 h after birth. Multiple parameters were measured including M-mode, two-dimensional image, Doppler image, global longitudinal strain (GLS) and myocardial work parameters [global work index (GWI), global constructive work (GCW), global wasted work (GWW), global work efficiency (GWE)]. The level of serum N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was recorded in the asphyxia group. The data were compared between the asphyxia group and the control group. Correlations between myocardial work parameters and other parameters were analyzed.Results:A total of 33 cases were in the asphyxia group and 43 cases were in the control group. The preterm asphyxia group (18 cases) showed significantly lower GWI and GCW than the preterm control group (18 cases) [GWI: (702±153) mmHg vs. (879±205) mmHg, GCW: (1 016±221) mmHg vs. (1 200±271) mmHg] ( P<0.05). No differences existed in GLS, GWW and GWE. The term asphyxia group (15 cases) showed significantly lower GWW than the term control group (25 cases) [45.0 (30.0, 65.0) mmHg vs. 71.0 (35.5,85.5) mmHg] ( P<0.05). No differences existed in GLS, GWI, GCW and GWE. GWI was negatively correlated with serum NT-proBNP level ( r=-0.327, P<0.05). Conclusions:GWI and GCW may indicate myocardial injury in preterm neonates with mild asphyxia.
