Objective:
To analyze the independent and interaction effects of daytime outdoor light exposure and moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) duration on sleep quality of primary school students, so as to provide scientific evidence for interventions on children s sleep health.
Methods:
From April to June 2024, a total of 444 students from grades 3 and 4 in 2 primary schools in Jiading District, Shanghai were selected using stratified random cluster sampling method for continuous 7 day monitoring. Wearable devices "Clouclip" were used to monitor daytime outdoor activity time (represented by time with light intensity ≥ 1 000 lx ), and accelerometers were used to monitor MVPA time and sleep quality related indicators. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the associations of daytime outdoor activity and MVPA with sleep quality.
Results:
Both daytime outdoor light exposure and MVPA duration(longer actual sleep duration per night,longer time in bed,fewer awakening and shorter post sleep awakening shic) were independently associated with multiple sleep indicators( β =0.52, 0.46, -0.83, -2.19, all P <0.05), with no significant interaction between the associations ( P >0.05). After controlling for MVPA, more daytime outdoor light exposure was significantly and independently associated with longer actual sleep time ( β =0.50, 95% CI =0.21-0.79, P <0.05). After controlling for light exposure, longer MVPA duration was independently associated with shorter post-sleep awakening duration ( β=-4.15, 95% CI = -6.33 to -1.96, P <0.05).
Conclusion
Increased daytime outdoor activity and MVPA are both associated with better sleep quality in primary school students.

Health economics evidence plays an important role in linking clinical value evidence with health resource allocation decisions in the development of clinical practice guidelines. It can not only effectively balance clinical effectiveness and economic feasibility but also avoid forming "idealized" recommendations that are detached from the affordability of the healthcare system or the burden-bearing capacity of patients. To promote guideline developers to use health economics evidence more standardizedly and fully, this paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the current application status, existing challenges, access channels, and application processes of health economics evidence in current guidelines, and on this basis, puts forward considerations and suggestions for strengthening and standardizing the application of health economics evidence in China's clinical practice guidelines.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of potentially inappropriate medication (PIM) among the elderly in nursing homes in Urumqi based on three PIM screening tools, and to compare the applicability of different tools. METHODS A cross-sectional study design was adopted. Elderly individuals from six nursing homes in Urumqi were selected as the research subjects from May 2021 to September 2023. Demographic characteristics, disease burden and medication records of the elderly were collected. PIM screening was performed using the Chinese PIM criteria (2024 edition), the American Geriatrics Society (AGS) Beers criteria (2023 edition), and the Screening Tool of Older Person’S Prescriptions(STOPP)/Screening Tool to Alert to Right Treatment(START) (2023 edition). Fleiss’s Kappa test was used to assess the consistency among the three screening tools, and multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of PIM. RESULTS The prevalence of PIM screened by the Chinese PIM criteria was 47.4% (323/682), by the AGS Beers criteria was 43.4% (296/682), and by the STOPP criteria was 50.9% (347/682). The consistency among the three screening tools was low (Fleiss’s Kappa=0.12, P <0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that all three screening tools indicated that polypharmacy, aspirin use and psychotropic drug use were independent risk factors for PIM among elderly in nursing houses (all OR>1, P <0.05). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of PIM among the elderly in nursing homes in Urumqi is relatively high. Polypharmacy, aspirin use and psychotropic drug use are common independent risk factors for PIM. There are differences in screening results among the three tools with low consistency. The Chinese PIM criteria can serve as a first-line tool for PIM screening in nursing homes.

Objective:To investigate the independent clinical factors of live birth rate of the first frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycle after transcervical resection of adhesion (TCRA).Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of patients with intrauterine adhesion (IUA) who received FET in Reproductive Center of Reproductive and Genetic Hospital of CITIC-XIANGYA from January 2019 to June 2022 ( n=6 154). According to the severity of intrauterine adhesions in patients, they were classified into mild adhesions ( n=172), moderate adhesions ( n=5 723), and severe adhesions ( n=259). Based on the FET outcome, the patients were divided into live birth group and non-live birth group. The risk factors and protective factors of live birth were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. Results:1) No independent factor of live birth was found in the mild IUA group. 2) In the moderate IUA group, the protective factors of live birth included secondary infertility ( OR=1.39, 95% CI: 1.07-1.80, P=0.015), hysteroscopic polypectomy ( OR=1.38, 95% CI: 1.05-1.83, P=0.023), No. of high-quality embryos transferred (one embryo: OR=1.58, 95% CI: 1.37-1.82, P<0.001; two embryos: OR=2.55, 95% CI: 1.80-3.64, P<0.001), two embryos transferred ( OR=1.77, 95% CI: 1.48-2.12, P<0.001), embryo stage (blastocyst transferred, OR=4.93, 95% CI: 3.68-6.63, P<0.001; blastocyst+cleavage transferred OR=1.90, 95% CI: 1.11-3.21, P=0.021), preimplantation genetic testing embryo ( OR=1.42, 95% CI: 1.19-1.69, P<0.001), endometrial thickness before transplantation ( OR=1.11, 95% CI: 1.07-1.15, P<0.001). Risk factors of live birth included female age ( OR=0.94, 95% CI: 0.92-0.96, P<0.001), infertility due to male factor ( OR=0.83, 95% CI: 0.71-0.96, P=0.011), combined repeated implantation failure ( OR=0.60, 95% CI: 0.42-0.87, P=0.007), combined unicornuate uterus/uterus didelphys ( OR=0.25, 95% CI: 0.06-0.79, P=0.033), American Fertility Society score ( OR=0.94, 95% CI: 0.89-0.98, P=0.010), No. of TCRA ( OR=0.83, 95% CI: 0.77-0.90, P<0.001), gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists down-regulation combined with artificial cycle ( OR=0.56, 95% CI: 0.45-0.69, P<0.001), artificial cycle ( OR=0.62, 95% CI: 0.51-0.76, P<0.001). 3) In the severe IUA group, the risk factor of live birth was artificial cycle ( OR=0.25, 95% CI: 0.07-0.80, P=0.027). Conclusion:The clinical factors that affect the live birth outcome of the first FET cycle after TCRA have different results in patients with different degrees of adhesion. In patients with moderate adhesions, there are 17 clinical indicators that affect the live birth rate. In patients with severe adhesions, the artificial cycle is an independent factor affecting the live birth rate.

BACKGROUND:The cryopreservation technology enables tissues/cells to be stored for a long time in a low-temperature environment while maintaining the integrity of their activity and function,which is of great significance for the construction of cell therapy,tissue engineering and biological sample banks.Cryoprotective agents often contain dimethyl sulfoxide and serum.To avoid the toxic side effects of dimethyl sulfoxide,the complexity of serum components and immune responses,although some finished cryoprotective agents have been marketed,they are faced with many difficulties such as high cost and limited application.Therefore,there is an urgent need to develop a cryoprotective agent with clear components and the ability to solve the above problems.OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effects of a novel cryoprotectant on cryopreservation efficiency of different tissue and cell sources.METHODS:By applying the novel cryoprotectant as an experimental group with the commercially available and widely used cryoprotectant(control group)to umbilical cord Wharton's jelly tissue,umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells,umbilical cord blood/peripheral blood mononuclear cells,NK and CIK cells,comparative analyses were conducted in terms of cell morphology,number,viability,surface markers,differentiation potential,and cell-killing toxicity assay before cryopreservation and after resuscitation thawing.We confirmed the cryopreservation effect of the new cryoprotectant and its potential application value.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The novel cryoprotectant facilitated the normal growth of cryopreserved Wharton's jelly tissue upon recovery,exhibiting mesenchymal stem cell morphology.No significant differences were observed between the experimental and control groups in terms of cell recovery rate,surface markers,and differentiation potential.(2)There was no significant difference in the number and viability of cells between the experimental group and the control group after cryopreservation of cord blood/peripheral blood mononuclear cells,and the cryo-resuscitated cell numbers and viability of derived NK cells/CIK cells did not show significant difference between the experimental and control groups.(3)For NK cells derived and differentiated from cord blood/peripheral blood mononuclear cells,there was no significant difference in the proportion of CD56+CD16+cell subpopulations between the experimental group and the control group.For CIK cells derived and differentiated from cord blood/peripheral blood mononuclear cells,there was no significant difference in the proportions of CD3+CD8+and CD3+CD56+cell subpopulations between the experimental group and the control group.(4)In terms of cytotoxicity testing,when the effective-target ratio of immune cells and melanoma cell line Mel624 was 20:1,whether it was NK cells/CIK cells derived from cord blood or peripheral blood mononuclear cells,there was no significant difference in the tumoricidal activity of cells between the experimental group and the control group.These findings suggest that the novel cryoprotectant can replace existing commercially available and widely used cryoprotectants,and is applicable to Wharton's jelly tissue,umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells,umbilical cord blood/peripheral blood mononuclear cells,as well as NK and CIK cells,providing a solid technical foundation for the scaling,standardization,and commercialization of universal cryoprotectants.

Objective:This study aims to clarify the role of family and community health environments in improving the health status of elderly patients with chronic diseases,and provide recommendations and references for optimizing and enhancing chronic disease management capabilities.Methods:Based on data from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study(CHARLS),this study analyzes a sample of 9,388 elderly patients with chronic diseases.A hierarchical linear model(HLM)is employed to examine the effects of family and community health environments on chronic disease management outcomes,as well as their variations across urban-rural settings and disease types.Results:The findings indicate that a supportive family health environment significantly improves both self-rated health(β=0.097,P<0.001)and disease control outcomes(β=0.033,P<0.05)among elderly patients with chronic diseases.In contrast,community health environments contribute positively only to self-rated health(β=0.062,P<0.001)but do not significantly affect disease control outcomes.Moreover,no moderating effect of community health environments was observed on the relationship between family health environments and either self-rated health or disease control.The effects of family and community health environment on self-rated health and control results were different between urban and rural areas,while the effects of family health environment on control results were different in disease types.Conclusion:The explanatory power of the family health environment on the health status of elderly patients with chronic diseases is higher than that of the community health environment.However,the two have not been effectively integrated.It is recommended to incorporate the health needs of elderly patients with chronic diseases into the optimization of healthy family construction and to establish a four-in-one comprehensive chronic disease management system involving"patients,families,communities,and primary healthcare institutions."new models for chronic disease management should be explored and innovated.
