Objective: To investigate the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents in Yangzhou City, and its association with screen behaviors, so as to provide scientific evidence for weight management among students. Methods: In May 2025, an electronic questionnaire survey was conducted among children and adolescents in Yangzhou City. A total of 3 722 participants were selected from grades 4 to 12 in 18 primary and secondary schools (108 classes) by using stratified cluster random sampling. The Chi square test was used to compare the differences in the detection rates of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents with 5 types of screen behaviors (watching TV, playing electronic games, scrolling short videos, screen based learning, electronic socializing) in different time groups each day (never, >0~<2 h, ≥2 h). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the associations of five types of screen behaviors, presence of electronic devices in the bedroom, and screen use during meals on the weight status of children and adolescents. Results: The prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents was 37.3%. For all five types of screen behaviors, the differences in the distribution of overweight and obesity detection rates among children and adolescents across the three time spent categories were statistically significant ( χ 2=30.76- 70.78 , all P <0.01). After adjusting for confounding factors, multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that frequent or always using screens during meals( OR =1.63, 95％ CI =1.14~2.31), playing video games ( OR =1.28, 95% CI =1.11-1.48), browsing short videos ( OR =1.29, 95％ CI=1.09-1.54), and screen based learning ( OR =1.26, 95％ CI =1.10-1.44) were significantly associated with overweight and obesity among children and adolescents (all P <0.05). Conclusions Excessive screen use is positively correlated with the incidence of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents. Targeted interventions on screen behaviors among children and adolescents are therefore warranted.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of preoperative intestinal symptoms in patients with bowel endometriosis and to compare the effects of shaving versus segmental bowel resection on postoperative intestinal function.Methods A total of 105 patients diagnosed with bowel endometriosis and treated by the same surgical team at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University between Aug 1,2013 and Dec 30,2017 were prospectively enrolled in this study.Clinical data were collected via outpatient visits and telephone follow-ups at four time points:preoperative(T0)and postoperative(T1:Nov 2018;T2:Nov 2020;T3:Apr 2024).The primary outcome was bowel symptoms and gastrointestinal function scores;secondary outcome was pain scores.A generalized estimating equation(GEE)model was used to analyze the interaction effect of surgical approach and follow-up time on outcomes.Results Ultimately,a total of 89 patients were included(15.24%loss to follow-up),among whom 79 patients(88.76%)underwent shaving excision.Preoperatively,46 patients(51.68%)presented with bowel symptoms,primarily anus bulge(21 cases,46.65%)and diarrhea(15 cases,32.61%)during menstruation.Postoperatively,there was a significant increase in constipation rates(T1:71.43%;T2:50.00%;T3:72.00%).Both surgical groups exhibited significant improvements in dysmenorrhea,gastrointestinal discomfort scores as well as gastrointestinal quality of life index(P<0.000 5).However,the segmental resection group had significantly higher scores for low anterior resection syndrome,constipation compared with the shaving excision group(P=0.02 and P=0.05).Conclusion Approximately half of the patients with bowel endometriosis exhibit typical bowel symptoms preoperatively,such as anus bulge and diarrhea.Both shaving excision and segmental resection effectively alleviate pain;however,shaving excision demonstrates an advantage regarding preservation of bowel function,whereas segmental resection may elevate risks associated with postoperative constipation or altered defecation patterns due to structural changes.The selection of surgical approach should carefully balance lesion removal and functional preservation,moreover,be sure that potential risks are thoroughly informed to patients prior to surgery.

Objective To optimize the extraction process of chlorogenic acid and three other organic acids from Picris hieracioides L.with deep eutectic solvents using response surface methodology.Methods By comparing the extraction rate of organic acids in seven deep eutectic solvents,the best solvent combinations were identified,and the optimal extraction process of organic acids from Picris hieracioides L.was obtained by optimizing the liquid/feed ratio,extraction temperature,extraction time and other parameters using the response surface method on the basis of a one-way experiment.Results The deep eutectic solvent with 30%water content(choline chloride∶urea=1∶2)was effective in extracting organic acids from Picris hieracioides L.The optimal extraction process optimized by response surface method was:extraction temperature 30℃,extraction time 30 min,liquid-solid ratio 20∶1(mL·g-1),the extraction rate of organic acids under this condition was 1.092 9%.Conclusion The deep eutectic solvent optimized through response surface methodology is an efficient,green and eco-friendly extraction method.This study provides a theoretical foundation for the subsequent development and utilization of Picris hieracioides L..

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease(CJD)is a rapidly progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by prions,with certain infectivity and iatrogenic transmission risks.With the rapid progress and application of new dia-gnostic biomarkers and detection methods,as well as the construction and improvement of surveillance and reporting systems,the detection of CJD in patients domestically and internationally has shown an increasing trend year by year.Due to its long incubation period and heterogeneity of early symptoms,early identification and diagnosis of the disease is difficult,increasing the risk of transmission within medical institutions.Currently,there is a lack of con-sensus on the infection prevention and control of CJD.In order to timely identify and diagnose CJD as well as effec-tively block its transmission in medical institutions,this consensus summarizes 15 clinical concerns and formulates 24 specific recommendations based on the latest domestic and international research findings and clinical evidence,as well as combines with clinical practice,aiming to standardize healthcare-associated infection prevention and control measures for CJD and reduce its transmission risk in medical institutions.

Ischemic stroke is a disease resulting from the cerebral ischemia and hypoxia caused by the blockage of brain vessels in the brain,and is characterized by the focal neurological signs.Pathologically,neuronal necrosis in the infarcted area and the neuronal degeneration or delayed death of neurons in the ischemic penumbra,contribute to the morphological basis of the disease.Ischemic stroke is regulated by multiple processes,including ferroptosis,apoptosis,and autophagy.Ferroptosis,a type of iron-dependent cell death,is closely associated with ischemic stroke.Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2),a key transcription factor,plays a critical role in maintaining cellular redox balance and regulating inflammatory responses.Nrf2 promotes the expression of solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11)and glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4),thereby activating the Nrf2 signaling pathway to counteract ferroptosis and protect cells from damage.This article reviews and analyzes recent experimental studies on traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)therapy targeting the Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway to suppress ferroptosis.The studies have found that TCM therapy with herbal compounds,Chinese patent medicines,single herbal components and their active ingredients,and acupuncture and moxibustion can inhibit ferroptosis by activating the Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX4 signaling pathway,which will provide novel strategies for the TCM intervention of ischemic stroke.

Objective To investigate the practical effects of pediatric rapid sequence intubation(RSI)nursing coordination training based on the LSPPDM(learn,see,practice,prove,do,maintain)framework in order to provide evidence for optimizing pediatric RSI nursing training programs.Methods Nurses from the intensive care unit(ICU)of Children's Hospital,Fudan University during Feb 2023 and Jan 2024 were divided into the experimental group(n=35)and the control group(n=35)by block randomization.The experimental group received LSPPDM framework-based training,while the control group underwent conventional training with theoretical lectures and procedural demonstrations.Outcomes included training satisfaction,theoretical knowledge and procedural skill assessment scores,team collaboration compliance and RSI procedure time were compared between the two groups.Results The experimental group demonstrated significantly higher training satisfaction(123.80±2.04 vs.117.26±9.82,P<0.05),superior post-training theoretical knowledge and procedural skills(P<0.05),enhanced team collaboration compliance(P<0.05),and shorter RSI completion time(P<0.05)compared with the control group.Conclusion Pediatric RSI nursing coordination training based on the LSPPDM framework can effectively increase training satisfaction,promote theoretical and procedural skills and reduce completion time in nurses.

Objective:To investigate the early diagnostic value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)combined with serum creatinine(Scr)and urea nitrogen(BUN)in children with renal parenchymal injury caused by urinary tract infections(UTIs).Methods:A total of 120 children with UTIs admitted from January 2020 to January 2025 were selected and divided into a renal parenchymal injury group(n=65)and a non-injury group(n=55)based on the results of 99mTc-DMSA renal static imaging.All children underwent CEUS examination within 24 hours of admission to obtain hemodynamic parameters of the renal cortex and medulla(time-to-peak[TTP],peak intensity[PI],and area under the curve[AUC]),and Scr and BUN levels were measured.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors,and the diagnostic efficacy was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves.Results:In the renal parenchymal injury group,Scr(0.82±0.25 vs 0.53±0.15 mg/dL),BUN(16.23±4.82 vs 12.42±3.27 mg/dL),and cortical TTP(51.47±12.38 vs 43.45±12.55 s)were significantly elevated,while cortical PI(32.63±6.37 vs 39.23±7.31 dB)and AUC(2915.36±536.37 vs 3415.35±681.5 dB·s)were significantly decreased(all P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that Scr(OR=6.17),BUN(OR=2.58),cortical TTP(OR=1.98),and PI(OR=0.60)were independent predictors.In the ROC curve analysis,the combination of CEUS parameters(cortical TTP,PI,AUC)with Scr and BUN demonstrated the best diagnostic efficacy(AUC=0.953,sensitivity 87.3％,specificity 90.3％).Conclusion:CEUS can sensitively identify renal parenchymal injury associated with UTIs by dynamically assessing abnormal renal cortical blood perfusion.When combined with Scr and BUN,it significantly improves diagnostic accuracy,providing an important basis for early intervention and renal function protection in children with UTIs.
