Objective:
To explore the temporal variation in physical health status among college students, analyze the correlation and dose response relationship between body mass index (BMI) and physical fitness indicators, so as to provide a scientific basis for physical health intervention among college students in universities.
Methods:
A total of 4 910 freshmen in the 2021 grade at Xi an Jiaotong University were selected. The BMI and changes in five physical fitness indicators (50 meter run, endurance run, standing long jump, sit and reach, and pull up or 1 minute sit up) were continuously assessed during follow up evaluations from 2021 to 2024. One way analysis of variance, generalized estimating equation (GEE), and other statistical methods were used to analyze the trends in temporal variation among the physical fitness indicators as well as the correlation characteristics and dose response relationship between BMI and physical fitness.
Results:
In 2021 the overweight and obesity rates among male freshmen were 20.36 % and 8.62%, respectively, and 12.91% and 2.91% among female freshman, respectively. From 2021 to 2024 the BMI of male and female students showed an upward trend with a significant increase( F =87.29,3.69,both P <0.05). The physical fitness indicators for both male and female students, including the 50 meter run, standing long jump, pull up and 1 minute sit up, first increased and then decreased, the endurance run performance decreased, and the sit and reach performance first decreased and then increased. The GEE model showed that BMI was negatively correlated with the performance of standing long jump, pullup/1 minute sit up, and sit and reach in both male and female students( β =-1.72,-0.34,-0.15;-0.94,-0.26,-0.12), and positively correlated with the time of 50 meter run and endurance run( β =0.05,3.16;0.03,1.86)(all P <0.05). The increase in BMI was associated with physical fitness decline in a non linear dose response relationship, while the sit and reach performance reached a peak at a BMI of approximately 22 kg/m 2, then decreased with the further increase in BMI.
Conclusions
A significant negative correlation is demonstrated between BMI and physical fitness indicators and male students are more sensitive to changes in BMI. College students should be guided to actively manage their weight and attach importance to physical exercise to improve their physical health.

Objective To compare the effect of posterior cruciate ligament retaining(CR)and posterior cruciate substituting(PS)prosthesis in knee arthroplasty.Methods 64 patients with knee osteoarthritis were admitted to our department from June 2021 to June 2022 and whom met the selection criteria were randomly selected and divided into observation group and control group(n = 32).CR prosthesis was used in the observation group,and PS prosthesis was used in the control group.Operation time,postoperative drainage volume,difference of hemoglobin(HGB)before and after operation,postoperative hospital stay,postoperative range of motion at 7 d,14 d,45 d,3 months and 1 year were recorded.ROM,visual analog pain Scale(VAS),Hospital for special surgery(HSS)score,and maximum forward and backward displacement of knee joint and the regular radiographs were also recorded,too.Results The two groups were similar in terms of operation time,postoperative hospital stay,postoperative VAS score and maximum anterior and posterior displacement of knee joint,with P values greater than 0.05,which had no statistical significance.The postoperative drainage volume in the observation group was significantly less than that in the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05).The HGB difference of observation group was significantly lower than that of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant differ-ence in ROM and HSS scores between the two groups before surgery;the ROM and HSS scores of the control group at 7,14 and 45 days after surgery was better than that of the observation group,with statistical significance(P<0.05);the ROM and HSS scores of the two groups at 3 months after surgery was not statistically significant.The ROM and HSS scores in the observation group was better than that in the control group at 6 months and 1 year after operation,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusions CR prosthesis is superior to PS prosthesis in terms of intraoperative blood loss and post-operative drainage volume,which can reduce surgical risk.Both kinds of prosthesis can achieve good knee stability after surgery,while PS prosthesis has better early clinical effect,while CR prosthesis has better long-term clinical effect.

Objective To investigate the influence of experience teaching used in clinical nursing on the comfort feeling of bedridden patients .Methods Totals of 46 nurses from four wards of cardiology were applied the experiential education .Totals of 228 cardiovascular patients met the inclusion criteria were recruited from February to December 2011.Totals of 115 patients, from July to December 2011, were in the intervention group, while 113 patients, from February to June 2011, were in the control group.General information questionnaire and the comfortable status scale were used .Results In the control group , the scores of each dimension of physical comfort , psychological comfort , social comfort , comfortable environment and the total score were (13.04 ±2.512), (20.27 ±5.184), (19.92 ±2.991), (18.58 ±3.017) and (71.81 ±9.570), respectively.Those scores in the intervention group were (15.76 ±2.258), (29.87 ±3.582), (23.21 ± 1.935), (20.37 ±1.903) and (89.21 ±7.283),respectively.There were significant differences between the two groups (t=8.577, 16.298, 9.872, 5.367, 15.461, respectively;P<0.05).Conclusions It is feasible and effective for the hospital to apply experience teaching .
