Objective: To investigate the associations between childhood obesity and performance of six minute walk test (6MWT), providing evidence for exercise tolerance assessment and exercise intervention strategies for children and adolescents. Methods: From March 2021 to December 2023, a cohort study was conducted among students recruited from a primary and secondary school in Chongqing, a total of 709 valid samples were included. The 6MWT was used to assess exercise tolerance, with vital signs measured before and after the test. Anthropometric indicators, including height, weight, and waist circumference, were measured using standardized procedures. Generalized additive models (GAM) and restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression were employed to analyze the nonlinear relationships between obesity related indicators and six minute walk distance (6MWD). Results: The mean 6MWD of participants was (602.59±70.73)m. GAM showed that after adjusting for confounding factors, body mass index (BMI) and weight had non linear relationships with 6MWD [effective degrees of freedom were 1.55 and 7.13 respectively], and overweight/obesity was associated with a decrease in 6MWD ( β =-18.65) (all P <0.01). Further RCS regression analysis showed that both BMI and weight showed an "inverted U shaped" non linear relationship with 6MWD in the overall population and sex stratified subgroups; the 6MWD of females was lower than that of males, and it showed a significant downward trend with the increase of BMI or weight (all P <0.05). Conclusion Body weight and BMI in children and adolescents have an important impact on 6MWD, and obesity in children and adolescents is markedly associated with decline in exercise tolerance.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the association between random urinary electrolyte levels and hypertension among children and adolescents in Guizhou Province, so as to provide evidence for region specific dietary guidance and interventions. Methods: In 2023, a total of 2 480 children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years were recruited from a nine-year coherent style school in Guizhou Province in a children health cohort, with follow ups conducted in 2024 and 2025. Random urine samples were collected to measure urinary sodium, potassium, calcium, and chloride, and the urinary sodium to potassium ratio (Na/K) was calculated. The diagnosis of hypertension was based on the criteria established by the Chinese Guidelines for Hypertension Prevention and Treatment (2024 revised edition) and relevant research. Linear mixed models and multinomial Logistic regression were used to assess the associations of urinary electrolytes with systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and the risk of hypertension. Results: At baseline, SBP, DBP, and MAP were 102.33 (94.33, 110.33), 61.33 (56.33, 67.00) and 75.22 (69.67, 81.33)mmHg among children and adolescents, respectively. After adjusting for potential confounders and two follow-ups, higher urinary Na/K ratio was positively associated with higher of SBP ( β=0.054, 95%CI =0.028- 0.081 ) and MAP ( β=0.038, 95%CI =0.010-0.066), as well as higher risks of hypertension ( OR=1.248, 95%CI =1.006-1.548) (all P <0.05). Higher of urinary chloride levels were positively associated with higher of SBP ( β=0.088, 95%CI = 0.009- 0.167), whereas higher of urinary potassium (SBP: β=-0.062, 95%CI =-0.096 to -0.028; MAP: β=-0.041, 95%CI = -0.078 to -0.005) and calcium levels (SBP: β=-0.036, 95%CI =-0.065 to -0.007) were negatively associated with blood pressure (all P < 0.05 ). Conclusion The urinary Na/K, as a comprehensive electrolyte marker, more stably reflects sodium load and excretory pressure in children and adolescents, and may serve as an early predictor of hypertension risk.

Objective: To explore the association between vegetable intake with glucose and lipid metabolism levels among school aged children, so as to provide scientific basis for dietary intervention on children s metabolic health. Methods: Based on a natural population cohort in Jiulongpo District and Fengdu County of Chongqing, 2 133 school aged children aged 6-9 years were enrolled in the baseline survey in 2014, and 2 029 children completed the follow up in 2019. Questionnaire surveys were used to collect vegetable intake, general demographic and lifestyle data. Height, weight and waist circumference were measured, and glucose and lipid metabolism indicators such as fasting blood glucose (FBG), triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (TC), low densith lipoprotein triglyceride (LDL-C), high densith lipoprotein triglyceride (HDL-C) were detected. Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used for intergroup comparisons in multivariate analysis, and mixed effects linear regression model was used to analyze the association between vegetable intake and glucose and lipid metabolism. Results: The levels of FBG, TG, TC, HDL-C and LDL-C at baseline and follow up were [4.09(3.90,4.48), 0.84(0.60,1.14), 3.49(3.09,3.91), 1.25(1.09,1.46), 1.69 ( 1.39 ,2.02)；4.31(4.00,4.64), 0.92(0.71,1.22), 3.49(3.12,3.87), 1.36(1.16,1.57), 1.77(1.51,2.06)] mmol/L, respectively. Among these indicators, FBG, TG, HDL-C and LDL-C all increased significantly ( Z =-12.08, -7.82, -9.82, -5.37, all P < 0.01 ). The detection rate of low HDL-C levels at follow up (13.11%) was significantly lower than that at baseline (18.10%) ( χ 2=19.57, P <0.05). At baseline, there were significant differences in FBG, TC, TG, HDL-C and LDL-C among children with different vegetable intake levels ( H =68.47, 30.16, 11.02, 13.27, 44.70); at followup, only HDL-C showed significant intergroup differences ( H =13.10)(all P <0.05). Mixed effects linear regression model showed that after adjusting for confounding factors, vegetable intake was significantly negatively correlated with blood glucose levels among school aged children ( β=-0.03, 95%CI = -0.05 to -0.01, P <0.01). Conclusion Higher vegetable intake can independently reduce the risk of abnormal blood glucose in school aged children, which is of great significance for maintaining glucose metabolic health.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the current status of bacterial contamination control and prevention measures and construction of quality control laboratory in Chinese blood station,and find out the problems and put forward the improvement suggestions.METHODS A total of 41 questionnaires were sent out for performance comparison by secretariat of working group of Chinese blood collection and supply institutions from May 2024 to Jun.2024,and 40 questionnaires were received(14 blood centers and 26 central blood stations),39 of which were valid.The questionnaire survey covered four aspects,including disinfection and surveillance,construction of quality control laboratory,sterility test for blood component and monitoring of blood transfusion reactions.The data were pro-cessed through itemized statistics and descriptive analysis.RESULTS Totally 84.62％of the blood stations used io-dine-containing disinfectants for arm disinfection of the blood donors,and the monthly monitoring was the primary frequency.Among the quality control laboratories,43.59％were registered as biosafety level 2,while 35.90％lacked biosafety registration.As for the pressure settings of the laboratories,64.10％were under normal pres-sure,15.38％under negative pressure and 17.95％under positive pressure.In the sterility test,the utilization rate of ultra clean operating tables and biological safety cabinets was 48.72％,the blood stations that did not have the indoor quality control accounted for 79.49％,and only 35.90％participated the external quality assessment.Regarding the approaches to confirm the positive result,25.64％of the blood stations adopted the re-peated tests,and 15.38％adopted the combination with positive culture bottle.The shortage of fund was the ma-jor restricted factor for the sterility test,and the confirmation of positive result was the fundamental difficulty.The blood stations with the feedback of insufficient transfusion reactions reported from hospitals ac-counted for 53.85％,while the blood stations that encountered suspected bacterial transfusion reactions with nega-tive culture results accounted for 25.64％.CONCLUSIONS The infeciton control and prevention measures and the construction of quality control laboratory vary significantly in Chinese blood stations.The incomplete biosafety registration,non-standardized sterility test operation and weak surveillance of blood transfusion reactions are the major existing problems.It is suggested that the investment should be increased to push forward the standardi-zation and complete the laboratory biosafety system,and a hospital-blood station closed loop coordination mecha-nism should be established so as to raise the blood safety.

Objective This study aimed to examine whether body mass index(BMI)was causally associated with blood transfusion reactions.Methods A two-sample Mendelian randomization(MR)analysis using the inverse variance weighted(IVW),MR-Egger regression,weighted median method(WME),weighted model method(WM),simple model method(SM)and simple median method(SM)was performed.Public genome-wide association study(GWAS)analysis was used as the data source,with summary statistical data sets of BMI(n=126 003;GWAS ID:ebi-a-GCST90095042)as the exposure variable and summary statistical data sets of transfusion reactions(n=199 451;GWAS ID:finn-b-ST19)as the outcome variable.The causal association between BMI and transfusion reactions was analyzed.Results 42 single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with transfusion reactions were identified by MR analysis.The IVW showed evidence to support the causal relationship between BMI and transfusion reactions(OR=0.29,95%CI=0.10～0.85).Nonetheless,the effect value β of the MR-Egger regression approach contrasts with that of IVW.The outcomes of the heterogeneity analysis,pleiotropy analysis,and sensitivity analysis indicated that P>0.05.Conclusion The results of MR analysis supported the possibility of a causal relationship between BMI and blood transfusion reactions,that is,the reduction of BMI will increase the risk of blood transfusion reactions.

With the deepening understanding of the pathogenesis of psoriasis, small-molecule drugs targeting the key Janus kinase (JAK) -tyrosine kinase (TYK) 2 pathway have gained increasing interest. TYK2-related pathways play an important role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, while they are not involved in modulating broad biological effects, making them one of the potential therapeutic targets for the efficient and safe treatment of psoriasis. How to improve the selectivity and specificity of TYK2 inhibitors to minimize adverse reactions associated with the inhibition of other pathways has been one of the key directions for development of drugs targeting TYK2 in recent years. This review summarizes the role of TYK2 pathway in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, the modes of action of TYK2 inhibitors (competitive or allosteric inhibition), and the latest clinical research progress.
