Objective:
To explore the association between sleep quality, sleep duration with blood pressure in primary and secondary school students with different nutritional status, so as to provide a reference for targeted intervention measures.
Methods:
By using stratified cluster random sampling method, a total of 10 871 students aged 7 to 18 years were selected from 36 primary and secondary schools in 6 counties of Yangzhou from October to November 2023. Physical examination and questionnaire survey were conducted respectively. Student Health Status and Influencing Factors Questionnaire was used to collected basic information. The overweight/obesity and sleep quality of primary and secondary school students were determined according to the Screening for Overweight and Obesity among School age Children and Adolescents and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scale. The χ 2 test was used to compare the prevalence of elevated blood pressure in different groups of primary and secondary school students. Multivariate Logistic regression model was used to explore the association between sleep and blood pressure in primary and secondary school students.
Results:
The prevalence of elevated blood pressure among primary and secondary school students in Yangzhou was 13.86 %, higher among boys (15.13%) than girls (12.62%) ( χ 2=14.30, P <0.01). The elevated blood pressure rate of obese and overweight primary and secondary school students were 26.98% and 14.90%, respectively, higher than 8.71% of non overweight and obese children ( χ 2=482.58, P <0.01). There were statistically significant differences in elevated blood pressure rate among primary and secondary school students in different sleep quality and sleep duration ( χ 2= 8.45, 71.58, P <0.05). After controlling for gender, residence, educational stage, parental education, sedentary time, the results of multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that no correlation between sleep quality and elevated blood pressure under different nutritional status was found among primary and secondary school students. In primary and secondary school students with obesity, prevalence of elevated blood pressure was higher among those with sleep duration <8 and 8 to <9 h/d ( OR=1.54, 1.72, P <0.05). However, there was no significant association found in the other groups ( OR=1.04-1.28, P >0.05). In gender stratification, sleep duration < 8, 8 to <9 and 9 to <10 h/d of obese boys were positively correlated with elevated blood pressure ( OR=1.97, 2.09, 1.86, P <0.05).
Conclusion
Among obese primary and secondary school students, sleep duration <9 h/d is associated with an increased risk of elevated blood pressure, especially among obese boys.

Objective:
To analyze the prevalence and determinants of comorbid overweight/obesity and elevated blood pressure among primary and secondary school students in Yangzhou City, and to explore the association between sleep patterns, eating behavior and the comorbidity of overweight/obesity and elevated blood pressure, so as to provide reference for developing prevention strategies targeting common comorbidities in students.
Methods:
By using stratified cluster random sampling, a total of 8 735 primary and secondary school students were selected from 36 schools in six counties of Yangzhou from October to November 2023. Students underwent physical examinations and a questionnaire survey was conducted using the questionnaire on students health status and influencing factors. The Chi square test was used to compare the detection rate of comorbid overweight/obesity and elevated blood pressure in different groups of primary and secondary school students. The Logistic regression model was used to explore the association between sleep and dietary behaviors and their combined effects and coexistence.
Results:
The detection rate of comorbid overweight/obesity and elevated blood pressure among primary and secondary school students in Yangzhou was 9.85%, which was higher among boys (12.14%) than girls (7.59%)( χ 2=50.86, P <0.01). After controlling for gender, residence, educational stage, parental education, smoking, drinking, and moderate to vigorous exercise, multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that irregular breakfast consumption and inadequate daily sleep were associated with a higher risk of comorbidities compared with regular breakfast consumption and adequate daily sleep among overall and primary school students (overall: OR =1.52, 95% CI =1.18- 1.96 , primary school students: OR =2.79, 95% CI =1.61-4.82)(both P <0.05). From the perspective of primary school students of different genders, the risk of comorbidities in girls who consumed breakfast irregularly and had inadequate daily sleep was 3.59 times higher than that in girls who consumed breakfast irregularly and had inadequate daily sleep (95% CI =1.65-7.82, P <0.01).
Conclusion
The sleep patterns and breakfast behaviors of primary and secondary school students are found to be associated with comorbid overweight/obesity and elevated blood pressure, especially in primary school girls.

Objective:To explore the impact of early postoperative hypocaloric parenteral nutrition on perioperative infectious complications in patients undergoing hepatectomy for primary hepatic carcinoma.Methods:The data of 205 patients who underwent hepatectomy for primary hepatic carcinoma in the Division of Hepatobiliary and Transplantation Surgery at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital between February 2020 and December 2022 were collected by a single center prospective cohort study. The patients were divided into a hypocaloric group ( n=108) and a normal calorie group ( n=97) based on whether they received hypocaloric parenteral nutrition within 72 hours postoperatively. The influence of early parenteral nutrition caloric on perioperative infectious complications was analyzed. Measurement data with normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( ± s) and compared using t-test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were expressed as M( Q1, Q3) and compared using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Comparison of categorical data was performed using the chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test. To adjust for confounding factors, patients were grouped for comparison based on whether they experienced infectious complications within the 30-day postoperative follow-up period. Factors that may influence postoperative infectious complications were first analyzed using univariate analysis, and variables with statistical significance were then included in multivariate analysis. Results:A total of 82 patients experiencing infectious complications, resulting in an incidence rate of 40.0%. Patients in the hypocaloric parenteral nutrition group had significantly lower rates of hyperglycemic events (17.6% vs 29.9%, P=0.038) and gastrointestinal reactions (12.0% vs 22.7%, P=0.043) compared to the normal calorie parenteral nutrition group, with no intergroup differences in other nutrition-related complications. Univariate analysis results revealed that hypocaloric parenteral nutrition, hepatocellular carcinoma, malnutrition assessed by the GLIM criteria, open surgery, major hepatectomy, perioperative hyperglycemic events, and the presence of pleural or ascitic fluid were potential influencing factors for the occurrence of infectious complications ( P<0.05). Multivariate analysis results suggested that malnutrition ( OR=2.707, 95% CI: 1.153-6.354, P=0.022), open surgery ( OR=2.103, 95% CI: 1.073-4.122, P=0.030), perioperative hyperglycemic events ( OR=2.630, 95% CI: 1.228-5.631, P=0.013), and the presence of pleural or ascitic fluid ( OR=2.714, 95% CI: 1.388-5.306, P=0.004) were risk factors for perioperative infectious complications in patients undergoing hepatectomy for primary hepatic carcinoma, while early postoperative hypocaloric parenteral nutrition ( OR=0.388, 95% CI: 0.199-0.757, P=0.006) was a protective factor. Conclusion:For patients undergoing hepatectomy for primary hepatic carcinoma, early postoperative hypocaloric parenteral nutrition may reduce the incidence of perioperative infectious complications compared to normal caloric parenteral nutrition, thereby improving patient clinical outcomes.
