Objective:
To analyze the compliance status of physical fitness indicator and lifestyle characteristics among secondary vocational school students, as well as their associations, so as to provide a reference for physical fitness promotion among secondary vocational school students.
Methods:
Using a convenience sampling method, a questionnaire survey and physical fitness tests were conducted from September to December 2024 among 5 141 secondary vocational school students recruited from 16 secondary vocational schools across 8 provinces/municipalities in China, including Fujian, Chongqing, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hubei, Jiangxi, Shanghai and Zhejiang. Data on lifestyle factors were collected using a self designed questionnaire combined with standardized scales, including dietary habits, unhealthy behaviors, and 24 hour behaviors (physical activity, screen time, and sleep behavior). Multivariable Logistic regression model was used to analyze the associations of individual lifestyle behaviors and clustering of unhealthy lifestyle behaviors with non-compliance in physical fitness indicators among secondary vocational school students.
Results:
The compliance rates for waist circumference, vital capacity, grip strength, standing long jump, 30 second sit ups, 20 meter shuttle run, 50 meter dash, sit and reach, 20 second side steps among secondary vocational school students were 55.9%, 89.6%, 81.8%, 79.4%, 77.8%, 61.4%, 87.0%, 12.6%, and 63.5%, respectively, with a non-overweight/obesity rate of 78.9%. The reporting rates of daily breakfast consumption, milk consumption, and vegetable consumption were 58.9%, 18.3%, and 37.5%, respectively. The reporting rates of frequent takeout consumption, frequent sugar sweetened beverage consumption, smoking, alcohol drinking, insufficient moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), excessive screen time, and insufficient sleep were 30.0%, 43.8%, 8.4%, 15.8%, 42.9%, 90.8%, and 42.6%, respectively. Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that secondary vocational school students with insufficient MVPA had higher risks of non-compliance in vital capacity, grip strength, standing long jump, 30 second sit ups, 20 meter shuttle run, 50 meter dash, and 20 second side steps ( OR =1.22- 1.60 ); secondary vocational school students who consumed breakfast daily had lower risks of non-compliance in vital capacity and overweight/obesity ( OR =0.81, 0.85); daily vegetable consumption was associated with a lower risk of vital capacity non-compliance ( OR =0.72); frequent takeout consumption was associated with an increased risk of non-compliance in the sit and reach test ( OR =1.28); smoking was associated with increased risks of non-compliance in the 20 meter shuttle run and 20 second side steps ( OR =1.38, 1.58) (all P <0.05). Regarding the clustering of unhealthy behaviors, secondary vocational school students with 4- 5 clustered unhealthy behaviors had higher risks of non-compliance in waist circumference and standing long jump; those with≥6 clustered behaviors had higher risks of non-compliance in standing long jump, 20 meter shuttle run, and 20 second side step ( OR = 1.17-1.36, all P <0.05).
Conclusions
The clustering of unhealthy behaviors is negatively associated with physical fitness status among secondary vocational school students. Secondary vocational schools should prioritize the promotion of comprehensive lifestyle management to improve the physical fitness levels of secondary vocational school students.

Objective To evaluate the consistency of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT), Digital Radiography (DR) and fat-suppression MRI in detecting occult knee joint injury. Method Clinical data from 150 patients with suspected occult knee injuries who presented to the Department of imaging at the General Hospital of Ordnance Industry between August 2022 and August 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. All patients underwent MSCT, DR, and fat-suppression MRI for diagnostic evaluation. Arthroscopic or surgical findings served as the gold standard. We analyzed and compared the detection rates of specific types of occult knee injuries (ligament, meniscus, occult fracture, etc.) across the three modalities, as well as their ability to assess the degree of collapse and horizontal displacement in patients with knee fractures, and their overall diagnostic performance. Result According to the gold standard, among the 150 patients with suspected occult knee injury, 103 tested positive and 47 negative. Statistically significant differences were observed among MSCT, DR, and fat-suppression MRI in detecting occult fractures(P<0.05). The detection rates ranked in descending order asfollows: fat-suppression MRI>MSCT>DR. However, no significant difference were found in the detection rates of joint effusion and patellar cartilage injuries among the three techniques (P>0.05). Statistically differences were also note among the three techniques in detecting the degree of collapse and horizontal displacement in patients with knee fractures (P<0.05). Specifically fat-suppression MRI identified a higher proportion of grade 1 and 2 lesions than both MSCT and DR. Statistically significant differences were observed among the three techniques in diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy for occult knee injuries (P<0.05). Fat-suppression MRI demonstrated superior sensitivity (99.03%) and accuracy (96.67%) compared with MSCT (75.73%, 79.33%) and DR (61.17%, 68.00%). However, no significant difference was found in diagnostic specificity among the three techniques (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with MSCT and DR, fat-suppression MRI offers higher diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy for occult knee injuries, particularly in identifying ligament injuries, meniscus injuries, and occult fractures.

Background Previous studies have focused on the respiratory system and skin damage caused by refractory ceramic fibers (RCFs). However, investigations into cardiovascular health of workers exposed to RCFs are insufficient. There is limited research on the association between occupational RCFs exposure and abnormal blood pressure, as well as the potential underlying mechanisms. Objective To explore the association between occupational exposure to RCFs and abnormal blood pressure, and to analyze the role of serum 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in this relationship, providing a reference for comprehensive health protection strategies for RCFs-exposed workers. Methods Using a cluster sampling method, 311 workers engaged in the production and processing of RCFs at a large RCFs enterprise were selected as the study population. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect demographic information and other relevant data. The workers’ total dust, respirable fiber, and noise exposure levels were measured. Blood pressure was measured during occupational health examinations, and blood samples were collected. Based on blood pressure levels, the participants were divided into three groups: normotension, prehypertension, and hypertension. Serum 8-OHdG concentrations were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Ordinal logistic regression and multiple linear regression models were applied to evaluate the associations of exposures to noise and RCFs with abnormal blood pressure and serum 8-OHdG levels. The mediating effect of serum 8-OHdG on the relationship between occupational RCFs exposure and abnormal blood pressure was analyzed using the PROCESS 4.1 macro. Results All 311 RCFs workers had varying levels of occupational exposure to RCFs, among whom 113 were also exposed to noise. The overall prevalences of prehypertension and hypertension among the participants were 49.84% and 11.25%, respectively. In the noise-exposed group, the prevalences of normotension, prehypertension, and hypertension were 44.2%, 43.4%, and 12.4%, respectively, which showed no statistically significant difference compared to the non-noise-exposed group (35.9%, 53.5%, and 10.6%, respectively; P=0.652). Significant differences were observed in the prevalences of normotension, prehypertension, and hypertension among workers with different levels of total dust exposure (P=0.033) and respirable fiber exposure (P=0.034). The differences in serum 8-OHdG concentrations across these groups were also statistically significant (P<0.05). Multiple regression analyses showed that both total dust exposure level (OR=1.83, 95%CI: 1.34, 2.51) and respirable fiber exposure level (OR=1.85, 95%CI: 1.31, 2.62) were positively associated with the detection of abnormal blood pressure. Furthermore, total dust exposure level (β=5.85, 95%CI: 0.53, 11.17) and respirable fiber exposure level (β=6.04, 95%CI: 0.14, 11.94) were positively associated with serum 8-OHdG concentrations. Further analysis indicated that the severity of abnormal blood pressure was positively associated with serum 8-OHdG concentrations (β=10.54, 95%CI: 3.62, 17.46). Mediation analysis demonstrated that serum 8-OHdG mediated the relationship between RCFs total dust exposure levels and the risk of abnormal blood pressure (P<0.05), accounting for 8.63% of the total effect. However, no mediating effect of serum 8-OHdG was observed in the association between RCFs respirable fiber exposure levels and the risk of abnormal blood pressure (P>0.05). Conclusion Occupational exposure to RCFs is closely associated with an increased risk of abnormal blood pressure and elevated serum 8-OHdG levels. Oxidative stress may play a mediating role in the relationship between RCF exposure and abnormal blood pressure.

Objective To identify key influencing factors for comorbidity between myopia and depressive symptoms among middle school students, and to construct a nomogram predictive model capable of quantitatively assessing their comorbidity risk. Methods A total of 13 976 middle school students aged 11-20 from 14 counties (cities, districts) in Yichang City were selected as study subjects through cluster random sampling. On-site surveys were conducted using the Student Health Status and Influencing Factors Questionnaire and the Depression Assessment Scale. Chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression analysis were employed to investigate the comorbidity association between myopia and depressive symptoms and their influencing factors, and to construct a nomogram model for risk prediction. Results The myopia screening rate among middle school students was 68.67%, the depression detection rate was 23.31%, and the comorbidity detection rate was 16.59%. Logistic regression analysis revealed that boarding school (OR=1.207), smoking history (OR=1.504), alcohol consumption (OR=2.016), outdoor activity time <1 h (OR=1.293), internet addiction (OR=4.008), school bullying (OR=4.358), school absence due to illness within one year (OR=1.712), and severe injury within one year (OR=1.356) were risk factors for myopia-depression comorbidity. Protective factors included male gender (OR=0.578), junior high school students (OR=0.670), nuclear family (OR=0.862), moderate-to-high intensity exercise ≥1 h/d (OR=0.852), screen time <2h (OR=0.803), adequate sleep duration (OR=0.602), and homework time after school <2 h/d (OR=0.766). The nomogram model constructed based on the above variables exhibited excellent discriminant power (AUC = 0.712) and calibration (Hosmer-Lemeshow test, χ2=3.245, P> 0.05). Conclusion Factors such as boarding school attendance, smoking history, alcohol consumption, less than 1 hour of daily outdoor activity, internet addiction, and school bullying are significantly associated with the comorbidity of screening myopia and depressive symptoms among middle school students in Yichang City. The nomogram model effectively predicts the comorbidity risk in this population, facilitating timely intervention for high-risk individuals.

Background and Aims:Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant digestive system tumor characterized by poor prognosis and limited therapeutic response.The tumor microenvironment plays a crucial role in its progression,where oxidative stress and lactate metabolism are two tightly interconnected processes influencing tumor growth,immune escape,and therapeutic resistance.However,their combined prognostic impact remains poorly understood.This study aimed to integrate oxidative stress-and lactate metabolism-related genes to establish and validate a robust prognostic model for pancreatic cancer,and to explore its association with immune microenvironment characteristics.Methods:Transcriptomic and clinical data of 177 pancreatic cancer patients were obtained from TCGA database and an external validation was performed using the GEO dataset(GSE57495).Differentially expressed genes associated with oxidative stress and lactate metabolism were identified using the"limma"package.Univariate Cox regression was used to screen prognostic genes,followed by LASSO regression to construct a multi-gene risk model.Model performance was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis,receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,concordance index(C-index),nomogram calibration,and decision curve analysis(DCA).The CIBERSORT and ssGSEA algorithms were used to analyze immune cell infiltration and immune functional differences between risk groups.Results:A six-gene signature(MUC1,KRT18,SDC1,AREG,DDC,and ATPAF2)was identified to construct the prognostic model.Based on the calculated risk score,patients were stratified into high-and low-risk groups.Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed significantly worse overall survival in the high-risk group(P<0.01).The model showed good predictive accuracy with 1-,2-,and 3-year AUCs of 0.710,0.674,and 0.649,respectively.The C-index and calibration curves confirmed its reliability,and multivariate Cox regression indicated that the risk score was an independent prognostic factor.External validation using GEO data demonstrated consistent predictive performance.Immune infiltration analysis revealed that M0 macrophages were markedly enriched in the high-risk group,while cytotoxic and effector T-cell populations were reduced,suggesting that an immunosuppressive microenvironment may contribute to poor outcomes.Conclusion:This study developed and validated a novel prognostic model for pancreatic cancer based on oxidative stress and lactate metabolism-related genes.The model accurately predicts patient survival,reflects immune microenvironment heterogeneity,and provides new molecular insights for risk stratification and individualized therapeutic strategies in pancreatic cancer management.
