Objective: To analyze the implementation status and challenges of sex education in special education schools, so as to provide a scientific basis for formulating effective promotion strategies. Methods: From November 2023 to January 2024, a census survey was conducted among 120 in service teachers from 7 special education schools in Luzhou. The questionnaire covered the current status of sex education in schools, teachers attitudes and knowledge toward sex education, and their coping methods for students inappropriate sexual behaviors. Results: About 77.5% of teachers reported having provided sex education to students, but 93.2% indicated a lack of specialized sex education textbooks for special children, 90.4% reported no full time teachers for sex education, and the methods of sex education were relatively limited (50.0% mainly based on lecture method). Nearly 95.8% of teachers held a positive attitude toward sex education, with 98.3% supporting its implementation. Only 26.7% of teachers demonstrated a good grasp of sex education knowledge, with the best understood topic being "recognition and protection of private parts" (21.6%). When dealing with students inappropriate sexual behaviors, the active response rate of teachers was 23.9%, with the highest active response rate observed for "intentionally hugging or kissing the opposite sex" (39.7%). Conclusions The special education schools in Luzhou lack comprehensive sex education curricula, teaching materials and full time teachers, sufficient knowledge among teachers, and adequate proactive responses to students inappropriate sexual behaviors. Greater emphasis should be placed on sex education for special children, including the training of dedicated teachers, to provide comprehensive and high quality sex education services for special children.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of hybutimibe in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia.Methods:Relevant databases and clinical trial registration websites at home and abroad were searched (up to March 27, 2023), and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of hybutimibe in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia have been collected. Patients in the trial group were given hybutimibe with or without other hypolipidemic agents, and those in the control group were given placebo or other hypolipidemic agents as same as that in the trial group. The primary outcome in effectiveness was the change rate of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). The primary outcomes in safety were incidences of overall adverse events (AEs), serious AEs (SAEs), the trial termination due to AEs, and trial drug-related AEs. The secondary outcome in safety was incidence of the major AE reported in ≥ 2 trials. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. The effect sizes of counting data were expressed by the relative risk ( RR) and its 95% confidence interval ( CI). The effect sizes of measurement data were expressed by mean difference ( MD) and its 95% CI. Results:A total of 4 RCTs and 1 488 patients were entered in the analysis, including 952 patients in the trial group and 536 in the control group. The results of meta-analysis showed that at 8-12 weeks of treatment, the decrease rate of LDL-C in the trial group (hybutimibe 20 or 10 mg daily with or without atorvastatin 10 mg daily) was significantly greater than that in the control group (hybutimibe 20 mg daily: MD=-13.36%, 95% CI: -15.28% - -11.44%, P<0.001; hybutimibe 10 mg daily: MD=-10.80%, 95% CI: -14.90%- -6.71%, P<0.001); at 52 weeks of treatment, the average decrease rate (from baseline) of LDL-C in the trial group (hybutimibe 20 or 10 mg combined with atorvastatin 10 mg daily) was significantly greater than that in the control group with atorvastatin 10 mg daily monotherapy (-41.92% and -39.34% vs. -31.56%, all P<0.001); the incidences of overall AEs [47.94% (338/705) vs. 49.75% (202/406), RR=0.99, 95% CI: 0.87-1.12], SAEs[2.64% (16/606) vs. 2.79% (10/358), RR=1.19, 95% CI: 0.53-2.66], trial termination due to AEs[4.11% (29/705) vs. 4.68% (19/406), RR=0.67, 95% CI: 0.17-2.65], and trial drug-related AEs [12.38% (75/606) vs. 11.45% (41/358), RR=0.87, 95% CI: 0.37-2.06] were similar between the 2 groups at 8-12 weeks of treatment (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Hybutimibe could effectively reduce LDL-C level in patients with hypercholesterolemia, with good medication safety.
