Objective:
To investigate the correlation between social jetlag and psychological behavior in upper primary school students,so as to provide reference for sleep health promotion in primary school students.
Methods:
From April to June 2024, a survey was conducted among 4 341 fourth and fifth grade students from 9 public primary schools in a district in Beijing. Sleep patterns were assessed using a self designed questionnaire, while psychological behavior was evaluated using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ)(parent version). A generalized estimating equation (GEE) model was used to examine the association between different levels of social jetlag and psychological behavior problem scores in primary school students.
Results:
The proportions of students with social jetlag of <1.0, 1.0-<2.0, and ≥2.0 h were 57.6%, 30.6%, and 11.8%, respectively. The GEE model analysis found that after adjusting for covariates, compared with primary school students with social jetlag of <1.0 h, those with 1.0 -<2.0 and ≥2.0 h had higher scores for internalizing behavior problems [ β (95% CI ) =0.23(0.05-0.41),0.28(0.02-0.54), P < 0.01]. Primary school students with ≥2.0 h of social jetlag had higher scores for externalizing behavior problems [ β (95% CI )=0.42 (0.13-0.71), P <0.01]. Among boys and primary school students with an average nighttime sleep duration of ≥9 h, comparied with social jetlag of <1.0 h,those with sucial jetlag 1.0-<2.0 h had higher scores on internalizing and externalizing behavior problems[ β (95% CI )=0.32(0.07-0.56),0.51 (0.11-0.90), 0.26 (0.06-0.46),0.58 (0.25-0.91), P <0.05].
Conclusions
Greater social jetlag may be a risk factor for internalizing and externalizing behavior problems in upper primary school students. Reducing social jetlag may help decrease the occurrence of psychological behavior problems in primary school students.

Objective:
To explore the association of screening myopia and sitting posture habits as well as screen viewing distance among primary school students, providing a scientific basis for myopia prevention and intervention among primary school students.
Methods:
From April to June 2024, a convenient sampling method was used to enroll 1 394 fourth grade students from four primary schools in a district of Beijing for vision examinations and questionnaire surveys. Logistic regression models were employed to analyze the relationship of screening myopia detection and sitting posture habits as well as viewing distance.
Results:
The screening myopia prevalence among primary school students was 63.8%. About 13.1% of students self reported poor sitting posture, and 47.1% selfreported a viewing distance of ≤20 cm. After adjusting for covariates including age, gender, school, sleep quality, parental myopia status, physical fitness level, daily high intensity physical activity, weekend outdoor activity time and types of after school services, Logistic regression analysis showed that students with poor sitting posture were more likely to have screening myopia than those with normal sitting posture ( OR =1.73,95% CI =1.03-2.92); students with a viewing distance of ≤20 cm were more likely to have screening myopia than those with a viewing distance of >20 cm( OR =1.32, 95% CI =1.02-1.71)( P <0.05). The association between sitting posture and screening myopia was more significant among boys( OR =2.00, 95% CI =1.03-3.88, P < 0.05 ). A multiplicative interaction was observed between sitting posture and viewing distance. Compared to primary school students with normal posture and a viewing distance of >20 cm, those with poor posture and a viewing distance of >20 cm were more likely to have screening myopia ( OR =1.82, 95% CI =1.12-2.96, P <0.05).
Conclusions
Both sitting posture habits and screen viewing distance are related to screening myopia in primary school students. Poor sitting posture poses a higher risk than screen distance, and the two factors exhibit an interactive effect on myopia risk.

Objective To investigate the reproductive and developmental effects of Clothianidin in rats. Methods Clothianidin was administrated by diet to both parental and first filial (F 1) generations of rats at the dosages of 0, 30.51, 110.84 and 304.26 mg/(kg·d) in females, and 0, 26.45, 92.69 and 279.42 mg/(kg·d) in males. Clothianidin was administered through diet to male and female rats for 8 weeks before mating. Clothianidin was administered to female rats in the parental and F1 generations during mating, gestation and lactation periods. During the test, toxicity performance was observed, reproduction index was calculated, and pathological examination was carried out. Results The body weights of rats in the parent and F1 generations in the high-dose group were lower than those in the control group during pre-mating exposure and at various time points during pregnancy and lactation (P<0.05). The pregnancy rates of parental and F1 generations in the high-dose group were lower than those of the control group (48.57% vs 71.43%, 45.71% vs 80.00%, P<0. 05). Sperm concentration and sperm motility of the parental generation were lower than those of the control group [(42.55±12.87) vs (53.84±7.65) ×106/ml, (58.94±10.59) vs (65.59±6.03), (P<0.05)]. Sperm concentration and sperm motility of the F1 generation were lower than those of the control group [(41.64±12.42) vs (53.09±9.48), (55.13±9.19) vs (64.53±6.31), (P<0.05). Conclusion Exposure to clothianidin has reproductive toxicity to Wistar rats, and the no-observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) in the two-generation reproductive toxicity test is 92.69 mg/kg·BW for males and 110.84 mg/kg·BW for females in Wistar rats.

Objective:To investigate the psychological status of HD nursing staff in hospitals in Guangdong province and its influential factors.Methods:1 630 nursing staff in HD rooms of 71 hospitals or units in Guangdong Province in February and March 2020 were evaluated by using the 10-item Kessler psychological distress scale (Kessler 10), General self-efficacy scale (GSES) and Connor-Davidson resilience scale (CD-RISC) to conduct a questionnaire survey on their psychological status. Insomnia severity index (ISI) and Fatigue scale-14 (FS-14) were used to investigate their degree of insomnia and fatigue. General information on gender, age, educational level, marital status, economic income, professional title, HD working hours, average weekly overtime times and hours, total number of HD patients per day, and whether holding other positions were collected.Results:A total of 1 630 questionnaires were collected, among which 1 629 were valid, with an effective recovery rate of 99.9%. The scores of the three scales were (20.16±7.47), (27.03±4.45) and (58.37±15.75), respectively. According to the Kessler 10, 835 people (51.2%) had mental disorders. Univariate analysis showed that age, educational level, economic income, type of work unit, total number of HD patients per day and living status in recent one week were related with Kessler 10 score (all P<0.05). Economic income, type of work unit, whether holding other positions, total number of HD patients per day and living status in recent one week were related with GSES scores (all P<0.05). Age, marital status, economic income, professional title, type of work unit, whether holding other positions and living status in recent one week were related to CD-RISC score (all P<0.05). Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that the number of HD machines ( r=0.100, P<0.001), the number of nurses ( r=0.082, P=0.001), average weekly overtime times ( r=0.142, P<0.001) and overtime hours ( r=0.136, P<0.001), ISI score ( r=0.572, P<0.001) and FS-14 score ( r=0.635, P<0.001) were correlated with Kessler 10 score. ISI score ( r=-0.311, P<0.001) and FS-14 score ( r=-0.335, P<0.001) were correlated with GSES score. Working years of HD service ( r=0.112, P<0.001), ISI score ( r=-0.289, P<0.001) and FS-14 score ( r=-0.314, P<0.001) were correlated with CD-RISC score. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the economic income in 5 001-10 000 yuan (with<3 000 yuan as reference, B=-1.603, 95% CI -3.036--0.169, P=0.028) and the total number of HD patients per day >200 (with ≤50 as reference, B=-1.153, 95% CI -2.242--0.065, P=0.038) were negatively correlated with Kessler 10 score, and average weekly overtime times ( B=0.221, 95% CI 0.069-0.374, P=0.004), ISI score ( B=0.518, 95% CI 0.454-0.582, P<0.001) and FS-14 score ( B=1.166, 95% CI 1.066-1.265, P<0.001) were positively correlated with Kessler 10 score. The economic income (with<3 000 yuan as reference) in 3 001-5 000 yuan ( B=1.930, 95% CI 0.847-3.013, P<0.001), 5 001-10 000 yuan ( B=1.949, 95% CI 0.887-3.012, P<0.001), 10 001-15 000 yuan ( B=1.482, 95% CI 0.318-2.647, P=0.013), >20 000 yuan ( B=4.300, 95% CI 2.463-6.136, P<0.001), secondary hospital (with primary hospitals as reference, B= 1.078, 95% CI 0.005-2.152, P=0.049) and holding other positions ( B=0.729, 95% CI 0.277-1.181, P=0.002) were positively correlated with GSES score, and ISI score ( B=-0.169, 95% CI -0.217--0.120, P<0.001) and FS-14 score ( B=-0.403, 95% CI -0.478--0.328, P<0.001) were negatively correlated with GSES score. The economic income (with<3 000 yuan as reference) in 3 001-5 000 yuan ( B=7.631, 95% CI 3.753-11.509, P<0.001), 5 001-10 000 yuan ( B=9.236, 95% CI 5.362-13.110, P<0.001), 10 001-15 000 yuan ( B=9.039, 95% CI 4.735-13.342, P<0.001), 15 001-20 000 yuan ( B=8.639, 95% CI 2.989-14.289, P=0.003), >20 000 yuan ( B=16.101, 95% CI 9.162-23.039, P<0.001) and holding other positions ( B=3.228, 95% CI 1.510-4.945, P<0.001) were positively correlated with CD-RISC score, and ISI score ( B=-0.593, 95% CI -0.765--0.420, P<0.001) and FS-14 score ( B=-1.258, 95% CI -1.525--0.992, P<0.001) were negatively correlated with CD-RISC score. Conclusion:The psychological status of nursing staff in HD rooms of hospitals in Guangdong Province needs to be improved. Effective preventive measures should be taken to provide timely psychological support, counseling and intervention to nursing staff with psychological abnormalities, and encourage them to take the initiative to seek psychological counseling when necessary, so as to promote their physical and mental health.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of oral-nasal oxygen supply mouth guard in painless gastroscopy for snoring patients.Methods:The snoring patients who underwent painless gastroscopy at two Endoscopy Centers of Shanghai East Hospital, Tongji University in July 2022 were randomly divided into the observation group (using oral-nasal oxygen supply mouth guard) and the control group (using ordinary nasal oxygen tube and mouth guard). Parameters such as the wearing time and the removal time of the mouth guard, lowest pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2), incidence of hypoxemia, and the satisfaction of medical staff were compared between the two groups. Results:The wearing time of mouth guard was 11.63±0.84 seconds and the removal time was 5.33±0.76 seconds in the observation group ( n=40), which were lower than those in the control group ( n=47) (14.91±1.21 seconds, t=-14.463, P<0.001; 10.38±0.80 seconds, t=-30.095, P<0.001). The wearing satisfaction score was 9.80±0.61, the lowest SpO 2 was (96.70±3.42)%, the removal satisfaction score was 9.75±0.67, and the anesthesiologists' satisfaction score was 9.20±1.42 in the observation group, which were higher than those in the control group [7.70±0.93, t=12.209, P<0.001; (94.06±3.72)%, t=3.417, P=0.001; 7.96±0.98, t=9.803, P<0.001; 8.13±1.35, t=3.615, P=0.001] with significant difference. There was no significant difference in the incidence of hypoxemia [10.00% (4/40) VS 14.89% (7/47), χ2=0.130, P=0.718] and endoscopic physician satisfaction score (9.30±0.97 VS 9.02±1.31, t=1.112, P=0.269) between the two groups. Conclusion:The oral-nasal oxygen supply mouth guard is easy to wear and remove, effectively reducing SpO 2 fluctuations during painless gastroscopy for snoring patients.

AIM: To investigate the effect of residual astigmatism on visual quality after phacoemulsification combined with regional refractive intraocular lens(IOL)implantation in patients with age-related cataract, and to evaluate the astigmatism inclusivity of regional refractive IOL.METHODS: Retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 62 cases(73 eyes)of age-related cataract patients who underwent phacoemulsification combined with regional refractive IOL(Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15)implantation from July 2020 to March 2022 at the ophthalmology department of our hospital were collected. They were grouped according to residual astigmatism at 6 mo postoperatively, taking 35 cases(40 eyes)with residual astigmatism of 0.75 D to 1.50 D as the experimental group, and 27 cases(33 eyes)with residual astigmatism ≤0.75 D as the control group. Visual acuity, defocus curves, objective visual acuity [wavefront aberrations, Strehl ratio(SR), modulation transfer functions(MTF)], subjective visual acuity(national eye institute visual function questionnaire-25), patients' satisfaction, and spectacle independence were compared between the two groups at 6 mo postoperatively.RESULTS:There was a difference in the preoperative astigmatism and the number of postoperative 6 mo residual astigmatism between the two groups(P<0.01). At 6 mo postoperatively, there was no difference in uncorrected distance, intermediate, and near visual acuity, objective visual quality, subjective visual quality, satisfaction, and spectacle independence between the two groups(P>0.05). The defocus curves showed that there was no difference in visual acuity between the two groups at all points in the +2.00 to -4.00 D defocus range of the additional spherical equivalent(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15 IOL was able to accommodate regular astigmatism of 1.50 D.

ObjectiveTo reveal the effects of Huanglian Jiedutang (HLJDT) on the learning and memory abilities of APP/PS1 transgenic mice via hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α)/vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling pathway. MethodForty 5-month-old β-amyloid precursor protein (APP)/presenilin 1(PS1) mice were randomized into the model, donepezil (0.001 g·kg-1·d-1), and low-, medium-, and high-dose (1.5, 3, 6 g·kg-1·d-1, respectively) HLJDT groups, and 8 C57BL/6 mice were taken as the normal group. After 45 days of continuous administration, Morris water maze test was conducted, and the organ indexes were calculated. The morphological structure of cerebral vascular endothelial cells in mice was observed under a transmission electron microscope. Western blot was employed to measure the protein levels of APP, HIF-1α, VEGF,VEGFA, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the hippocampus. The mRNA levels of APP, HIF-1α, and VEGF were determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). ResultCompared with the normal group, the model group showed prolonged escape latency (P<0.05), reduced distance and time around the target platform (P<0.05), decrease brain and spleen indexes (P<0.05), vascular endothelial cells with karyopyknosis and not abundant cytoplasm, up-regulated protein levels of APP, HIF-1α, VEGF, and VEGFA (P<0.05), down-regulated protein level of BDNF (P<0.05), and up-regulated mRNA levels of APP, HIF-1α, and VEGF (P<0.05) in the hippocampus. Compared with the model group, high-dose HLJDT shortened the escape latency (P<0.05), increased the distance and time around the target platform (P<0.05), raised the brain and spleen indexes (P<0.05), repaired the organelles of vascular endothelial cells, down-regulated the protein levels of APP, HIF-1α, VEGF, and VEGFA (P<0.05), up-regulated the protein level of BDNF (P<0.05), and down-regulated the mRNA levels of APP, HIF-1α, and VEGF (P<0.05) in the hippocampus. ConclusionHLJDT can improve the learning and memory abilities of mice by reducing the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF, thus protecting the nerves.
