AIM: To compare the agreement between the ARK Biometer Combo and OA 2000 in patients wearing orthokeratology lenses.METHODS: A prospective study. A total of 148 patients(148 eyes)who were wearing orthokeratology lenses and returned for follow-up at the Shanghai Eye Disease Prevention and Treatment Center from August to September 2024 were included. Biometric measurements were performed using both the ARK Biometer Combo and OA 2000. Parameters including axial length(AL), corneal central thickness(CCT), anterior chamber depth(ACD), lens thickness(LT), corneal curvature(Kf and Ks), astigmatism(AST), white-to-white corneal diameter(WTW)and pupil diameter(PD)were obtained. Differences in measurement parameters between the two biometers were compared, and agreement was assessed.RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences in the measurements of Kf, Ks and AST between the two biometers(P>0.05). Statistically significant differences were found in the measurements of AL, CCT, ACD, LT, WTW and PD(t=2.559, P=0.012; t=16.771, P<0.0001; t=4.749, P<0.0001; t=-15.212, P<0.0001; t=-14.915, P<0.0001; t=-2.402, P=0.018). ICC ranged from 0.615 to 0.999. Bland-Altman analysis showed that the maximum absolute values of the 95% limits of agreement(LoA)of AL, CCT, ACD, LT, Kf, Ks, AST, WTW and PD were 0.07 mm, 35.07 μm, 0.07 mm, 0.12 mm, 0.66 D, 1.14 D, 1.00 D, 0.76 mm, and 0.98 mm, respectively.CONCLUSION: In orthokeratology patients, the ARK Biometer Combo and OA 2000 showed good agreement in measuring AL, CCT, ACD, Kf and LT, and can be used interchangeably.

Objective: To analyze the status of outdoor activities on weekends among children and adolescents of different educational stages in Shanghai and their impact on myopia, so as to provide a basis for formulating more specific prevention and control protocol of myopia. Methods: From September to October 2022, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select 84 schools (27 kindergartens, 21 primary schools, 15 junior high schools and 21 high schools) across Shanghai, enrolling a total of 28 654 children and adolescents aged 4 to 18 for the study. Ophthalmic examinations were conducted to ascertain the prevalence of myopia among children and adolescents. Additionally, a questionnaire survey was administered to collect data on outdoor activity duration and associated factors. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was utilized to investigate the associated factors of outdoor activity levels on weekends. Results: The overall myopia detection rate among children and adolescents was 58.4%, with a higher rate observed in girls (59.2%) compared to boys (57.6%). The myopia detection rates for children and adolescents with an average daily outdoor activity duration of ≥2 h and <2 h on weekends were 54.6% and 68.8%, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ 2=8.12,460.89, P <0.01). Multivariable Logistic regression analysis revealed that girls ( OR =0.80), those with a myopic parent ( OR =0.68), schools from urban districts ( OR =0.72), higher education stages (primary school: OR =0.65, junior high school: OR =0.24, high school: OR =0.14) and spending≥2 h/d on homework during weekends ( OR =0.57) among children and adolescents were less likely to engage in outdoor activities for ≥2 h on weekends ( P <0.01). After incorporating gender, parental myopia status, educational stage, school location, average daily duration on weekends for spending on homework, electronic product usage and outdoor activities as dependent variables in a multivariate Logistic regression analysis, the results showed that children and adolescents with an average outdoor activity duration for ≥2 h on weekends had a lower risk of myopia ( OR =0.86, P < 0.01). Conclusions The level of outdoor activity among children and adolescents on weekends needs to be improved. Outdoor activities on weekends is an associated factor for myopia among children and adolescents. Particularly, girls, those with myopic parents, schools from urban districts, and spending long hours on homework during weekends among children and adolescents require increased attention.

Objective: To investigate the visual acuity and correction conditions of children and adolescents in Shanghai, so as to provide a scientific basis for developing intervention measures to prevent myopia and protect vision among children and adolescents. Methods: From October to December 2022, a stratified cluster random sampling survey was conducted, involving 47 034 students from 16 municipal districts in Shanghai, covering kindergartens (≥5 years), primary schools, middle schools, general high schools and vocational high schools. According to the Guidelines for Screening Refractive Errors in Primary and Secondary School Students, the Standard Logarithmic Visual acuity Chart was used to examine naked vision and corrected vision of students, and general information was collected. The distribution and severity of visual impairment in different age groups were analyzed, and χ 2 tests and multivariate Logistic regression were used to explore factors associated with visual impairment. Results: The detection rate of visual impairment among children and adolescents was 76.2%, with a higher rate among females (78.8%) than males ( 73.8 %), higher among Han ethic students ( 76.2 %) than minority students (71.2%), and higher among urban students (76.7%) than suburban students (75.8%), all with statistically significant differences ( χ 2=162.6, 10.4, 5.5, P <0.05). The rate of visual impairment initially decreased and then increased with age, reaching its lowest at age 7 (53.8%) and peaking at age 17 (89.6%) ( χ 2 trend = 3 467.0 , P <0.05). Severe visual impairment accounted for the majority, at 56.6%, and there was a positive correlation between the severity of visual impairment and age among children and adolescents ( r =0.45, P <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression showed that age, BMI, gender, ethnicity and urban suburban status were associated with visual impairment ( OR =1.18, 1.01, 1.38 , 0.79, 0.88, P <0.05). Among those with moderate to severe visual impairment, the rate of spectacle lens usage was 62.8%, yet only 44.8 % of those who used spectacle lens had fully corrected visual acuity. Females (64.9%) had higher spectacle lens usage rates than males (60.6%), and general high school students had the highest spectacle lens usage (83.9%), and there were statistically significant differences in gender and academic stages ( χ 2=57.7, 4 592.8, P <0.05). Conclusions The rate of spectacle lens usage among students with moderate to severe visual impairment is relatively low, and even after using spectacle lens, some students still do not achieve adequate corrected visual acuity. Efforts should focus on enhancing public awareness of eye health and refractive correction and improving the accessibility of related health services.

Objective:To investigate the correlations between physical, psychological and social frailty in elderly patients with multimorbidity.Methods:This study utilized a mixed method. A questionnaire survey was conducted from February to June 2024, among elderly patients with multimorbidity attending 4 primary health care centers in urban Beijing selected by the convenience sampling method. The FRAIL Frailty Assessment Scale, WHO-5 Index of Well-Being Scale, and HALFT Scale were used to assess the patients′ physical, psychological, and social frailty, respectively. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between different dimensions of frailty in elderly with multimorbidity. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors influencing physical, psychological and social frailty. The elderly with multimorbidity who were assessed to have at least 1 or more types of frailty in the quantitative study were selected for in-depth interviews in the form of online and offline combination. The topics of in-depth interview included the real experience of the different dimensions of frailty, the possible causes and the difficulties caused. The sample size was determined according to the principle of information saturation. Thematic analysis was used to summarize, code and analyze the interview data.Results:A total of 919 participants were included in the quantitative study, with a mean age of (74.09±6.03) years, 329(35.80%) were males and 590(64.20%) were females. The prevalence of physical, psychological, and social frailty was 17.85%(164/919), 21.44%(197/919), 11.21%(103/919), respectively. A total of 21 participants were included in the qualitative study, with a mean age (76.90±5.13)years, 5(23.81%) males and 16(76.19%) females. Spearman correlation analysis showed that physical and psychological frailty were moderately correlated ( r=0.311, P<0.001), psychological and social frailty were weakly correlated ( r=0.218, P<0.001), and physical and social frailty were weakly correlated ( r=0.267, P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that the age, the number of multimorbidities, the psychological frailty and social frailty were the influencing factors for physical frailty (all P<0.05). The gender, number of multimorbidity, type of medication taken, physical frailty and social frailty were influencing factors of psychological frailty (all P<0.05). And age, number of multimorbidities, physical frailty and psychological frailty were influencing factors of social frailty (all P<0.05). A total of 3 themes were extracted through in-depth interviews, namely, "physical and psychological frailty are interrelated""physical and social frailty are interrelated", and "psychological and social frailty are interrelated". Conclusions:The physical, psychological, and social frailty in elderly patients with multimorbidity interacts with each other. Whereas the number of multimorbidities is a common risk factor for all three.

Objective:To analyze the current status, research hotspots, and development trends on the integration of primary care and prevention in China.Methods:This was a bibliometric analysis. Literature related to research on the integration of primary care and prevention in China was retrieved from CNIKI, Wanfang, VIP, Chinese Medical Journal Full Text Database, PubMed, and Web of Science for the period from January 1, 2015, to April 1, 2025. CiteSpace software was used to conduct a visual analysis of publication volume, authors and their collaborations, institutions, and keywords in the included literature.Results:A total of 292 domestic publications on the integration of primary healthcare and public health were analyzed. Research on primary healthcare-public health integration in China exhibited an overall upward trend from 2015 to 2025. Based on publication volume and temporal distribution, domestic research can be categorized into an exploratory phase (2015-2020) and a rapid development phase (2021-2025). The institutions publishing relevant research were predominantly universities and research centers, with a low institutional network density (0.013), indicating relative weak inter-institutional collaboration. The co-occurrence density among authors was 0.013 9. Collaboration predominantly occurred in small clusters, with limited cross-regional cooperation. Keywords that appeared frequently and had an intermediary centrality exceeding 0.1 included chronic diseases (0.40), public health (0.23),health management (0.18), and hypertension (0.17). Keyword clustering analysis showed that the top three categories mainly focused on public health, chronic diseases, and health management. Since 2024, emerging keywords with high burst intensity have included big data, health literacy, primary care hospitals, and infectious diseases.Conclusions:Research on the integration of medical and preventive care at the primary healthcare level in China has entered a stage of rapid development. Current research hotspots focus primarily on chronic disease management, the implementation status and barriers of primary healthcare and prevention integration models. Future research is expected to emphasize the application of intelligent technologies, and the enhancement of public health emergency response capacity.

Objective To explore the effect of interest induction combined with integrated healthcare nursing on improvements of mental health and prognosis in children with lobar pneumonia.Methods A total of 126 children diagnosed as lobar pneumonia in the Hebei Children's Hospital from October 2023 to October 2024 were selected as research objects and randomly divided into study group(n=63)and control group(n=63).The control group received conventional nursing interven-tions,while the study group received the interest induction combined with integrated healthcare nursing model.The time for improvement of clinical symptoms,psychological scores,therapeutic compliance,and the occurrence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results The resolution time for fever,obvious alleviation time for cough,relief time for shortness of breath,and disappear-ance time for moist rales in the study group were significantly shorter than those in the control group(P＜0.05).After the intervention,the scores of the Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children(MASC-C)and the Child Behavior Checklist(CBCL)in both groups were significantly lower than those before the intervention,and the scores in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The compliance scores of the study group in terms of taking medication on time,functional exercise,dietary adjustment,and self-monitoring dimensions were all significantly higher than those of the control group(P＜0.05).In the study group,there was 1 case of atelecta-sis and 1 case of pneumothorax,with a total complication rate of 3.17％(2/63);there was 1 case of pleural effusion,1 case of atelectasis,and 2 cases of pneumothorax in the control group,with a total complication rate of 6.35％(4/63).There was no significant difference in the total complica-tion rate between the two groups(x2=0.700,P＞0.05).Conclusion The interest induction combined with integrated healthcare nursing model can improve therapeutic compliance,shorten the time for improvement of clinical symptoms,and enhance the mental health of children.

Objective:To explore the key copy number variation (CNV) regions, abortion candidate genes and signaling pathways associated with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted based on the data of 1 870 miscarriage cases of RSA patients who received CNV analysis by high-throughput sequencing technology in the Laboratory Medicine Department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2016 to September 2022. These cases were divided into different groups based on the age of miscarriage and gestational age of the pregnant women. Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test was used to analyze the distribution of chromosome abnormalities and CNV. Gene functions and signaling pathways in RSA-related CNV were identified by gene enrichment analysis.Results:Among the 1 870 tissues, 1 001 (53.53%) cases were detected with chromosomal abnormalities. A total of 140 CNVs were detected in 93 tissues (9.29%), including 34 submicroscopic CNVs (segment<10 Mb) and 106 large CNVs with segment≥10 Mb. Submicroscopic pathogenicity CNVs with statistical differences were involved 1p36.33p36.23, 2q37.3, 4p16.3, 22q11.21 (χ 2=6.99, P=0.008) in early RSA embryos (≤12 weeks). 16p11.2 and Xp11.23p11.22 microdeletion were firstly reported in abortion cases. Significantly recurrent large CNVs were mainly involved 18q22q23 (del/dup), 4p16p15, 9p24p22, 8p23p22, and Xp22.3 regions, and the candidate genes mainly concentrated on PI3K-Akt and JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Conclusion:Rare submicroscopic CNVs and recurrent large CNVs were associated with RSA in early pregnancy. GO and KEGG database analysis revealed potential abortion candidate genes and signaling pathways, providing new information for the genetic etiology of RSA.

Objective:To analyze the current status of utilization behavior of basic public health services among elderly migrants in China and to explore its association with social capital.Method:This was a cross-sectional study. The data were obtained from the 2017 National Dynamic Monitoring and Survey on the Health and Family Planning of Migrants (Volume A), and the study subjects were selected by stratified, multi-stage and probability proportional to size sampling methods, covering all 31 provinces (autonomous regions or municipalities), and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps in China. Participants were migrants aged 60 and above who had resided in their current location for over 6 months without household registration. Demographic and sociological characteristics along with relevant information were collected. Utilization of basic public health services was indicated by the establishment of health records and receipt of health education. Social capital indicators encompassed social networks, family support, social participation, civic engagement, social trust, sense of social belonging, and social cohesion. Logistic regression models were applied to analyze the association between social capital and utilization of basic public health services among elderly migrants.Results:A total of 5 728 elderly migrants were included, with a mean age of (66.03±5.56) years, and 3 302 (57.6%) were males. Among them, 1 892 (33.0%) had established health records in their residence, and 2 372 (58.6%) had received health education. Logistic regression analysis revealed positive associations of social networks ( OR=1.287, 95% CI:1.130-1.466), social participation ( OR=1.426, 95% CI:1.238-1.644), and civic engagement ( OR=1.340, 95% CI:1.171-1.533), with the establishment of health records and receipt of health education among elderly migrants. Interestingly, lower levels of family support ( OR=0.741, 95% CI:0.642-0.855) were associated with higher rates of health record establishment and health education receipt. A sense of social belonging ( OR=1.355, 95% CI:1.150-1.596) showed a positive correlation with health record establishment, while social cohesion ( OR=1.264, 95% CI:1.080-1.478) positively correlated with the receipt of health education. Conclusions:Currently, the rates of health record establishment and health education receipt among elderly migrants in China are less satisfactory. Most dimensions of social capital demonstrate positive associations with the utilization of basic public health services among this population.
