Objective: To explore the association between dietary patterns and overweight and obesity among primary and middle school students, so as to provide the guidance of diet balance and obesity prevention for students. Methods: Students from 11 primary and middle schools in Tongzhou District, Beijing Municipality, were selected using the stratified cluster sampling method. Demographic information was collected through a general questionnaire, and dietary intake types and frequencies over the past week were assessed using a food frequency questionnaire. Dietary patterns were determined using factor analysis, and the dietary pattern factor scores were divided into Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups based on quartiles. Height and weight were collected through physical examinations, and Z-scores of body mass index adjusted for gender and age were calculated to assess overweight and obesity. The association between dietary patterns and overweight and obesity was analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 1 485 students were surveyed, including 745 males (50.17%) and 740 females (49.83%). The mean age was (12.87±2.86) years. Three dietary patterns were identified: animal and plant protein dietary pattern, high-fat and high-sugar dietary pattern, and vegetable-fruit-dairy dietary pattern. The detection rates of overweight and obesity were 42.57%, 48.42%, and 34.75%, respectively, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the vegetable-fruit-dairy dietary pattern, the animal and plant protein dietary pattern (OR=1.406, 95%CI: 1.084-1.823) and the high-fat and high-sugar dietary pattern (OR=2.137, 95%CI: 1.643-2.779) were associated with a higher risk of overweight and obesity among primary and middle school students. Compared with the Q1 group of dietary pattern factor scores, the Q3 group (OR=1.631, 95%CI: 1.206-2.208) and Q4 group (OR=1.965, 95%CI: 1.446-2.671) of the high-fat and high-sugar dietary pattern had an increased risk of overweight and obesity, while the Q4 group of the vegetable-fruit-dairy dietary pattern (OR=0.551, 95%CI: 0.406-0.747) had a reduced risk of overweight and obesity. There was no statistical association between factor scores of animal and plant protein dietary pattern and overweight and obesity (all P>0.05). Conclusions The animal and plant protein dietary pattern and the high-fat and high-sugar dietary pattern are associated with a higher risk of overweight and obesity among primary and middle school students. Within the same dietary pattern, the more inclined students are to the high-fat and high-sugar dietary pattern, the higher their risk of overweight and obesity, while the more inclined they are to the vegetable-fruit-dairy dietary pattern, the lower their risk of overweight and obesity.

Background and Objectives: The Fractional Flow Reserve and Intravascular UltrasoundGuided Intervention Strategy for Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Intermediate Stenosis (FLAVOUR) trial demonstrated non-inferiority of fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compared with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided PCI. We sought to investigate the cost-effectiveness of FFR-guided PCI compared to IVUS-guided PCI in Korea. Methods: A 2-part cost-effectiveness model, composed of a short-term decision tree model and a long-term Markov model, was developed for patients who underwent PCI to treat intermediate stenosis (40% to 70% stenosis by visual estimation on coronary angiography).The lifetime healthcare costs and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) were estimated from the healthcare system perspective. Transition probabilities were mainly referred from the FLAVOUR trial, and healthcare costs were mainly obtained through analysis of Korean National Health Insurance claims data. Health utilities were mainly obtained from the Seattle Angina Questionnaire responses of FLAVOUR trial participants mapped to EQ-5D. Results: From the Korean healthcare system perspective, the base-case analysis showed that FFR-guided PCI was 2,451 U.S. dollar lower in lifetime healthcare costs and 0.178 higher in QALYs compared to IVUS-guided PCI. FFR-guided PCI remained more likely to be cost-effective over a wide range of willingness-to-pay thresholds in the probabilistic sensitivity analysis. Conclusions Based on the results from the FLAVOUR trial, FFR-guided PCI is projected to decrease lifetime healthcare costs and increase QALYs compared with IVUS-guided PCI in intermediate coronary lesion, and it is a dominant strategy in Korea.

Objective To clarify whether the use of dynamic coronary artery roadmap(DCR)technology in a low-dose mode with 7.5 frames per second during coronary intervention can further reduce the total radiation dose,fluoroscopy time,and contrast agent usage.Methods A total of 94 patients,who received coronary angiography at the Shanghai Tongji Hospital of China between July 2022 and December 2022,were enrolled in this study.The patients were randomly divided into DCR group(n=53)and control group(n=41).DCR technology was used in the DCR group to guide the performance of percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI),while low-dose mode coronary angiography was adopted in the control group.The total air kerma(AK),dose-area product(DAP),intraoperative fluoroscopy time,and contrast agent usage were compared between the two groups.Results In the DCR group AK was(597.9±222.8)mGy,which was significantly lower than(717.0±326.8)mGy in the control group(P=0.039);DAP was(33.2±13.3)Gycm2/s,which was also remarkably lower than(41.3±21.5)Gycm2/s in the control group(P=0.027).In the DCR group and the control group,the intraoperative fluoroscopy time was(9.8± 3.3)min and(12.1±4.3)min respectively(P＜0.01),and the contrast agent usage was(122.3±19.0)mL and(130.5± 28.5)mL respectively(P=0.116).Conclusion In a low-dose mode during coronary intervention,the use of DCR technology can further reduce radiation dose,fluoroscopy time,and contrast agent usage.(J Intervent Radiol,2024,33:236-239)

Background::China is one of the countries with the largest burden of gastrointestinal and liver diseases (GILD) in the world. The GILD constitutes various causes of mortality and disability. The study aimed to investigate the trend of GILD in China using the Global Burden of Diseases Study 2019 (GBD 2019) data resources from 1990 to 2019.Methods::The data on the age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR) and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for GILD in China from 1990 to 2019 were collected from the GBD 2019 data resources. Furthermore, the ranking of the main causes of deaths and DALYs, as well as the trends of ASMR, DALYs, years of life lost (YLLs), and years of life lost due to disability (YLDs) per 1,000,000 in GILD were reported.Results::The ASMR and DALYs for stomach cancer, liver cancer, and esophageal cancer, which ranked top three among the GILDs from 1990 to 2019, were gradually decreasing. Significant decreases in the ASMR and DALYs were found in diarrheal diseases and acute hepatitis (A, E, and C). However, noteworthy increases were found in those of colon and rectum cancer (CRC) and pancreatic cancer. Trend of DALYs, mortality, and YLLs rates for most of GILD were decreasing from 1990 to 2019, except the burden of CRC and pancreatic cancer with an increasing trend. The DALYs, mortality and YLLs of most GILD diseases showed decreasing trends from 1990 to 2019, except the burden of CRC and pancreatic cancer with an increasing trends.Conclusions::The result of the GBD 2019 showed that the rates of most GILDs decreased in China; however, gastrointestinal and liver cancer, such as stomach cancer still held the top ranking. Furthermore, the shift from infectious diseases to non-communicable causes among GILD burden is occurring.

Objective:To investigate the role and mechanism of molecular hydrogen in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI).Methods:Balb/c male mice were randomly(random number) divided into control group, control+H 2, LPS and LPS+H 2 group with 6 mice in each group. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and Fe 2+ in lung tissue were detected by kits. The lung tissue morphology was observed. The infiltration levels of F4/80 positive macrophages in lung tissue were detected by immunofluorescence staining. A549 cells were divided into control, control+H 2, erastin and erastin+H 2 group. The reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde, (MDA), lactate dehydrogenase (GSH), number of cell death and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release in each group were detected by kits. Nrf2, GPX4, and HO-1mRNA were quantified by real-time PCR, the protein expression level of Nrf2 was detected by western blot, and the nuclear translocation level of Nrf2 was observed by immunofluorescence. The chi-square test was performed before the measurement data were counted. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare differences between multiple groups. Results:Compared with the control group, the histopathological damage was aggravated, and the levels of MDA, Fe 2+ significantly increased in the LPS group, and F4/80 positive immune cells infiltration significantly increased (all P<0.05). Compared with LPS group, the degree of lung injury in LPS+H 2 group significantly reduced (all P<0.05). In vitro experiments, compared with the control group, the ROS, MDA levels, number of cell death and LDH release significantly increased in erastin group (all P<0.05), while GSH, and GPX4 mRNA levels decreased (all P<0.05). HO-1mRNA and Nrf2 nuclear translocation levels increased (all P<0.05). Compared with erastin group, ROS, MDA levels, cell death number and LDH release decreased in earstin+H 2 group (all P<0.05). The levels of GSH, GPX4 mRNA, Nrf2 mRNA, HO-1 mRNA and Nrf2 nuclear translocation levels increased (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Molecular hydrogen attenuates LPS-induced ALI by promoting Nrf2 nuclear translocation to inhibit ferroptosis of alveolar epithelial cells.

Objective To investigate the imaging findings,clinical diagnosis and treatment outcomes of ovarian epithelial tumors during pregnancy.Methods Nineteen patients confirmed pathologically to be ovarian epithelial tumors during pregnancy were retro-spectively reviewed.All patients'clinical and imaging datas were analyzed in order to provide a basis for accurate diagnosis and treat-ment.Results There were 19 patients with 22 tumors,among of which 11 were benign tumors,3 borderline tumors and 5 malignant tumors.All tumors were composed of cystic or cystic-solid components,mainly polycystic.Mural nodules could be seen in 3 cases of borderline or malignant tumors.Obvious enhancement of solid components,septas and mural nodules could be seen on contrast-enhanced scans.Other imaging findings included pelvic effusion 2 cases,the adjacent tissues or organs displacement due to mass effect.Definite invasion of adjacent structures and distant metastases was not found.Conclusion There is no significant difference in the age,loca-tion,size and number of cysts between ovarian epithelial tumors during pregnancy and non-pregnancy,but the incidence of complica-tions increases due to physiological changes related to pregnancy.Early diagnosis and timely treatment are of great value.

Objective To investigate the risk factors affecting the malignancy of amorphous calcifications in the breast and to establish a predictive nomogram.Methods Patients with amorphous calcifications detected by mammography were retrospectively collected,clinical data were obtained from electronic medical record(EMR),and the mammographic features of the patients were assessed by diagnostic physicians.The risk factors affecting the malignancy of amorphous calcifications were analyzed to develop a predictive model and to assess the performance of the model.Results A total of 153 amorphous calcifications in 144 patients were included in the study,and the overall malignancy rate of calcifications was 20.92％.Patient's age ≥45 years,linear distribution of calcifications,unilateral single or unilateral multiple calcifications,and a larger maximum ratio of calcification extent all predicted a higher probability of malignancy,establishing a nomogram based on these 4 risk factors,with a 3.65％predicted probability of malig-nancy as the cut-off,33.99％(52/153)of patients were allowed to be spared biopsy.Conclusion Patient's age and the distribution,number,and maximum ratio of calcifications may be the risk predictors of malignancy for amorphous calcifications,with nomogram con-struction for distinguishing benignity from malignancy of amorphous calcifications via combining with mammographic features and clinical data.
