Objective To analyze the characteristics of viral hepatitis mortality and life loss among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023, and to provide a basis for related prevention and control work. Methods Viral hepatitis mortality data were obtained from the Pudong New Area mortality monitoring system. The crude mortality rate (CMR), standardized mortality rate (SMR), potential years of life lost (PYLL), average years of life lost (AYLL), and standardized potential years of life lost (SPYLL) were calculated to analyze viral hepatitis deaths. The average annual change (AAPC) and annual percentage change (APC) of the mortality rate were calculated by Joinpoint regression analysis to analyze the trend of mortality. Results The CMR and SMR of viral hepatitis among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023 were 3.89/100000 and 1.98/100000, respectively. Both CMR and SMR of viral hepatitis showed a decreasing trend over time (CMR:APC=-5.476, t=-13.581, P<0.001; SMR:APC=- 7.624, t= -21.253, P<0.001). The CMR for males was 4.75/100000 and the SMR for males was 2.65/100000; the CMR for females was 3.04/100000 and the SMR for females was 1.32/100000, with a higher mortality rate for males than for females(ZCME=12.094,P<0.001; ZSMR=-14.718,P<0.001). Deaths were concentrated in the age groups of 45-64 years old and 65 years old and above, accounting for 91.62% of the total deaths. The PYLL of deaths due to viral hepatitis among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023 was 26912 person-years, with a PYLLR of 0.45% and an AYLL of 8.88 years per person. Conclusion The mortality rate of viral hepatitis among the residents of Pudong New Area in 2003-2023 shows a decreasing trend over time. The mortality rate of males is higher than that of females, and the deaths of middle-aged and elderly people account for a large proportion of the total deaths. Chronic hepatitis B is the main cause of death.

Background The crude mortality rate of sudden death has shown a steady upward trend. Pudong New Area, Shanghai, is a highly urbanized and densely populated district that is substantially affected by the urban heat island effect and has experienced frequent extreme temperature events in recent years. However, evidence on the association between ambient temperatures and sudden death among local residents remains limited. Objective To examine the association between daily mean temperature and sudden death in Pudong New Area, and to provide evidence for reducing temperature-related risks of sudden death. Methods Data on sudden death, meteorological factors (daily average temperature, daily average relative humidity, and daily average air pressure), and air pollutants [inhalable particulate matter (PM10), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2)] in Pudong New Area from 2016 to 2021 were collected. A distributed lag non-linear model was used to examine the associations of daily mean temperature with total sudden death and sudden death due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, including lagged and cumulative effects (lag0, 0-3, 0-7, 0-14, and 0-21 d). Stratified analyses were performed by sex, age, and education level to identify vulnerable populations. The temperature attributable burden of sudden death was assessed by calculating attributable number (AN) and attribute fraction (AF). Results A total of 19458 sudden deaths were reported in Pudong New Area from 2016 to 2021, of which 11082 (56.95%) were due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Both low (P5, 4.6 ℃) and high (P95, 30.2 ℃) temperatures were associated with increased risks of sudden death. The cumulative risks associated with low temperature peaked at lag 0-21 d for both total sudden death and sudden death due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. In contrast, the cumulative risks associated with high temperature peaked at lag 0-7 d for total sudden death and at lag 0-3 d for sudden death due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Stratified analyses showed that females, individuals aged ≥65 years, and those with primary school education or below were more sensitive to low temperature; whereas females, individuals aged <65 years, and those with secondary school education or above were more sensitive to high temperature. Using 21.5 ℃ as the minimum mortality temperature, the AN of total sudden deaths attributable to non-optimal temperature was 3791 (95%CI: 1853, 5587), with an AF of 20.41% (95%CI: 9.47%, 28.94%); the AN attributable to low temperature was 3358 (95%CI: 1087, 5062), with an AF of 17.26% (95%CI: 5.89%, 26.01%), whereas the AN attributable to high temperature was 225 (95%CI: −274, 655), with an AF of 2.03% (95%CI: −2.53%, 5.78%). For sudden deaths due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, the AN attributable to non-optimal temperature was 2721 (95%CI: 1747, 5575), with an AF of 24.55% (95%CI: 9.59%, 28.65%); the AN attributable to low temperature was 2496 (95%CI: 988, 3562), with an AF of 22.53% (95%CI: 8.97%, 32.41%), whereas the AN attributable to high temperature was 614 (95%CI: −15, 1176), with an AF of 3.15% (95%CI: −0.08%, 6.02%). Conclusions Both low (P5, 4.6 ℃) and high (P95, 30.2 ℃) temperatures are associated with increased risks of sudden death in Pudong New Area, Shanghai. High temperature shows a relative short-term effect, whereas low temperature shows a stronger cumulative effect. Females, people ≥65 years, and individuals with primary school educational attainment or below are more vulnerable to low temperature, while females, people <65 years, and those with secondary school educational attainment or above are more vulnerable to high temperature. The attributable burden of low temperature is greater than that of high temperature. Targeted health protection measures should be strengthened for vulnerable populations during extreme temperature events.

【Objective】 To understand the prevalence of overweight/obesity among school-age children in Pudong New Area of Shanghai, and to explore the influence of gestational weight gain and pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) on weight status of school-age children. 【Methods】 From November to December 2020,a stratified cluster sampling method was adopted to select first-grade students from 13 primary schools in Pudong New Area of Shanghai.After matching with the birth monitoring database, 755 students with complete birth information were selected as the study subjects.The relevant information of mothers before and during pregnancy was retrospectively collected, and the effects of pregnancy weight gain combined with pre-pregnancy BMI on overweight/obesity in school-age children were analyzed. 【Results】 1) The prevalence rates of overweight and obesity of first-grade children were 15.89% and 18.41%, respectively.2) Maternal excessive weight gain during pregnancy (OR=1.678) and overweight/obesity before pregnancy (OR=2.315,2.412) were risk factors for overweight/obesity of the offspring at school age(P<0.05).3) For mothers who were underweight before pregnancy, excessive weight gain during pregnancy was associated with overweight/obesity in school-age children in their offspring (OR=7.436, 95%CI: 1.489 - 37.143,P<0.05).4) Excessive weight gain during pregnancy combined with overweight/obesity before pregnancy significantly increased the risk of overweight/obesity in offspring (OR=3.606, 95%CI: 2.030 - 6.405, P<0.05). Mothers who gained a moderate amount of weight during pregnancy and were emaciated before pregnancy had a significantly lower risk of overweight/obesity in their school-age children (OR=0.217, 95%CI: 0.049 - 0.967, P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Excessive weight gain during pregnancy increases the risk of overweight/obesity in school-age children in their offspring, strengthening pregnancy health education and perinatal care to help pregnant women maintain appropriate weight gain during pregnancy may be an important and novel strategy to prevent childhood obesity.

The data of pediatric patients who underwent scoliosis surgery from July 2016 to July 2019 were collected retrospectively.The pediatric patients were divided into traditional ventilation group (T group) and lung-protective ventilation group (P group) based on the ventilator settings.Standardized tidal volume(V T)was obtained by V T/ideal body weight (IBW). Patients with standardized V T ≥ 8 ml/kg and without positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) were included in group T, and patients with V T <8 ml/kg and PEEP 4-8 cmH 2O were included in group P. The propensity score was used to match the baseline information and intraoperative variables in the two groups.A total of 415 pediatric patients accepted screening, and 171 cases were successfully matched, including 92 cases in group T and 79 cases in group P. Compared with group T, the incidence and grade of pulmonary complications were significantly decreased at day 30 after operation, postanesthesia care unit stay time was shortened, body temperature was decreased at 24 h after operation, V T, standardized V T and oxygenation index were decreased, P ETCO 2, PEEP, ventilation frequency and I∶ E were increased ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in IBW, PaCO 2, incidence of postoperative surgical complications and anesthesia-related complications, plasma C-reactive protein concentration and white blood cell count at 24 h after operation, hospitalization time and hospitalization cost in group P ( P>0.05). In conclusion, the lung-protective ventilation strategy low V T combined with PEEP can decrease the risk of postoperation lung complications and is helpful in improving prognosis in the pediatric patients undergoing scoliosis surgery as compared with traditional mechanical ventilation strategy.
