Objective:
To investigate the association of sleep and circadian rhythm disruption indicators (including chronotype, sleep duration, and social jetlag) with co-occurring depressive and anxiety symptoms among primary and secondary school students, so as to provide a reference for promoting their mental health.
Methods:
In October 2023, a total of 15 944 primary and secondary school students were recruited from Nanjing, using a stratified cluster random sampling method. The Morning and Evening Questionnaire-5, Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression, and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 were used for the survey. Chi-square test was employed for intergroup comparisons, and Logistic regression model was applied to analyze the independent and joint effects of sleep related factors on comorbid symptoms of depressive and anxiety among primary and middle school students.
Results:
The prevalence of co-occurring depressive and anxiety symptoms among primary and secondary school students in Nanjing was 16.9%. After adjusting for covariates, Logistic regression analysis revealed significant independent associations between evening chronotype ( OR=6.55, 95%CI =5.59-7.68), insufficient sleep duration ( OR=3.05, 95%CI =2.60-3.59), and social jetlag ≥2 h ( OR= 2.09 , 95%CI =1.85-2.37) with comorbid symptoms of depressive and anxiety among students (all P <0.05). Concurrent of evening chronotype and insufficient sleep ( OR=7.54, 95%CI =3.55-16.01), as well as evening chronotype and social jetlag ≥2 h ( OR=4.18, 95%CI =3.01-5.81), were associated with an increased risk of co-occurring depressive and anxiety symptoms (both P < 0.05 ). In the female and high school student subgroups, the combination of evening chronotype and insufficient sleep or social jetlag ≥2 h showed stronger joint effects on co-occurring depressive and anxiety symptoms [ OR (95% CI )=8.46(3.25-22.04) and 15.90(3.66-69.08); 7.87(4.90-12.65) and 4.85(3.10-7.59), respectively; all P <0.05].
Conclusions
Evening chronotype, insufficient sleep, and social jetlag≥2 h may serve as risk factors for comorbid symptoms of depressive and anxiety in school aged populations. Paying attention to the coexistence of multiple sleep related risk factors may help mitigate the occurrence of emotional disorders in this demographic.

Objective:
To explore the relationship between lifestyle and myopia and depressive symptoms comorbidity among primary and secondary school students in Nanjing, so as to provide a scientific basis for developing effective prevention measures.
Methods:
In October 2022, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select primary and secondary school students aged 9-19 years in 4 urban and 4 suburban districts in Nanjing as the research subjects. A total of 10 498 students were included for physical examination and questionnaire survey by using the student health condition and influencing factors questionnaire. Chisquare test was used for univariate analysis, and multifactor Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between students lifestyle and the cooccurrence of myopia and depressive symptoms.
Results:
The prevalence of comorbidity of screening positive myopia and depression among primary and secondary school students in Nanjing was 18.11%. The prevalence of comorbidity was higher in girls (20.97%) than in boys (15.47%), higher in boarding students (31.31%) than in nonboarding students (16.51%), and higher in high school students than in middle and primary school students (28.63%, 19.10%, 7.76%), with statistically significant differences (χ2=53.49, 149.31, 522.55, P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression results showed that smoking (OR=1.51), drinking (OR=2.36), looking at electronic screens in dim conditions (OR=2.40), screen time ≥2 h/d(OR=1.50), afterschool homework time ≥2 h/d(OR=1.48) were positively correlated with the prevalence of comorbidity of screening positive myopia and depressive symptoms, healthy diet (OR=0.67), outdoor activities during breaks (OR=0.80), sufficient sleep (OR=0.64), meeting physical activity standards (OR=0.74) and outdoor activity time ≥2 h/d(OR=0.84) were negatively correlated with the prevalence of comorbidity of screening positive of myopia and depressive symptoms (P<0.05).
Conclusions
The lifestyle of primary and secondary school students in Nanjing is related to the comorbidity of myopia and depressive symptoms. Schools and families should carry out relevant education and intervention measures to promote students to develop good living habits and jointly prevent the occurrence of myopia and depressive symptoms.
