Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(8):1106-1111
Objective:
To investigate the intervention effects and mechanisms of function-rehabilitation-oriented physical training on the physical health of higher vocational college students, so as to provide replicable strategies for integrating physical education with health education in such institutions.
Methods:
In March 2024, a cluster random sampling method was employed to select 312 first and second year non sports major students from Chongqing Water Resources and Electric Engineering College as research subjects, and the selected classes were randomly divided into an intervention group ( n =151) and a control group ( n =161) by using a random number table. Both groups received a 16 week intervention program consisting of 2 academic hours per week from Macrh to July 2024. The control group followed the standard teaching curriculum for public physical education courses in higher vocational education, while the intervention group incorporated a function-rehabilitation-oriented physical training module into the regular physical education curriculum. For the module, stratified functional correction was implemented based on pre class functional movement screening results, with dedicated 10-15 minute intervention sessions per lesson accompanied by personalized exercise prescriptions delivered three times weekly. Before and after the intervention, Functional Movement Screen, the Exercise Attitude Scale, and the National Student Physical Health Standards (2014 Revision) were used for pre and post intervention assessments. Main effect of the intervention was examined via repeated measures analysis of variance, while chain mediating effect was analyzed by using the Hayes Process macro program.
Results:
After the intervention, the scores for functional movement quality (15.82±2.35), physical exercise attitude (237.64±17.22), and physical health level (76.45±7.82) in the intervention group were significantly higher than those before intervention (13.10±2.41, 199.51±15.78, 70.30±8.34) and those in the control group during the same period (13.08±2.81, 199.02±18.67, 71.42±7.56)( t =10.07, 20.34, 6.58; 9.21, 19.17, 5.57, all P < 0.01 ). Function-rehabilitation-oriented physical training directly and positively predicted physical health status ( β =0.18). Functional movement quality (effect size=0.21) and physical exercise attitude (effect size= 0.15 ) each served as independent mediators, their chain mediating effect was statistically significant (effect size=0.10)(all P < 0.01 ), with the total indirect effect accounting for 71.88% of the overall effect.
Conclusion
Function-rehabilitation-oriented physical training significantly improves the physical health of vocational college students through both direct effects and chain pathways, making it suitable for widespread implementation in vocational education institutions.

Objective We reviewed and analyzed the epidemiological data of 83 imported dengue fever cases reported in Fengtai District, Beijing, from 2007 to 2025, to delineate their epidemiological characteristics and guide the dengue fever prevention and control strategy in the future. Methods Data on dengue fever cases in Fengtai District from 2007 to 2025 were collected to identify the epidemic factors and characteristics using descriptive epidemiological method. Results All 83 dengue fever cases reported in this region over the past two decades have been imported from abroad or other domestic areas, with Southeast Asian countries being identified as the primary source of imported infections, accounting for 42 cases (50.60%), followed by 15 cases (18.07%) from Chinese provinces other than Beijing. The remaining import sources included 13 cases from South Asia,8 from African countries, and each from Oceania, South America, and Europe. Disease onset was found concentrated between May and November. The sex ratio (male-to-female) is 1.59:1. The age of onset ranged from 14 to 61 years old, with a median age of 36. The largest proportion of cases was observed among cadres and office workers (31 cases, 37.35%), followed by businessmen (13 cases, 15.67%), and householders or the unemployed (10 cases,12.05%). Travel visit was identified as the primary reason for their exposure history. Conclusions All dengue fever cases reported in Fengtai from 2007 to 2025 were imported, with an increasing trend of imported cases in Beijing originating from other Chinese provinces. It is essential to strengthen health education for foreign travelers and returning residents, enhance clinical diagnosis and treatment training for medical personnel, eliminate mosquito breeding sites, and reduce mosquito density through active patriotic health campaigns.

Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

ObjectiveIn nature, objects cast shadows due to illumination, forming the basis for stereoscopic perception. Birds need to adapt to changes in lighting (meaning they can recognize stereoscopic shapes even when shadows look different) to accurately perceive different three-dimensional forms. However, how neurons in the key visual brain area in birds handle these lighting changes remains largely unreported. In this study, pigeons (Columba livia) were used as subjects to investigate how neurons in pigeon’s ventrolateral mesopallium (MVL) represent stereoscopic shapes consistently, regardless of changes in lighting. MethodsVisual cognitive training combined with neuronal recording was employed. Pigeons were first trained to discriminate different stereoscopic shapes (concave/convex). We then tested whether and how light luminance angle and surface appearance of the stereoscopic shapes affect their recognition accuracy, and further verify whether the results rely on specify luminance color. Simultaneously, neuronal firing activity of neurons was recorded with multiple electrode array implanted from the MVL during the presentation of difference shapes. The response was finally analyzed how selectively they responded to different stereoscopic shapes and whether their selectivity was affected by the changes of luminance condition (like lighting angle) or surface look. Support vector machine (SVM) models were trained on neuronal population responses recorded under one condition (light luminance angle of 45°) and used to decode responses under other conditions (light luminance angle of 135°, 225°, 315°) to verify the invariance of responses to different luminance conditions. ResultsBehavioral results from 6 pigeons consistently showed that the pigeons could reliably identify the core 3D shape (over 80% accuracy), and this ability wasn’t affected by changes in light angle or surface appearance. Statistical analysis of 88 recorded neurons from 6 pigeons revealed that 83% (73/88) showed strong selectivity for specific 3D shapes (selectivity index>0.3), and responses to convex shapes were consistently stronger than to concave shapes. These shape-selective responses remained stable across changes in light angle and surface appearance. Neural patterns were consistent under both blue and orange lighting. The decoding accuracy achieves above 70%, suggesting stable responses under different conditions (e.g., different lighting angles or surface appearance). ConclusionNeurons in the pigeon MVL maintain a consistent neural encoding pattern for different stereoscopic shapes, unaffected by illumination or surface appearance. This ensures stable object recognition by pigeons in changing visual environments. Our findings provide new physiological evidence for understanding how birds achieve stable perception (“invariant neural representations”) while coping with variations in the visual field.
6.Evaluation of the weight loss effect of a comprehensive intervention among overweight and obese female college students
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(11):1569-1573
Objective:
To investigate the weight loss effect of a comprehensive intervention model combining caloric restriction (CR), physical activity (PA), behavioral therapy (BT), breathing exercise (BE), and functional movement corrective training (FMCT)-referred to as the "CPBBF" model in overweight and obese female college students, so as to provide a reference for scientific weight loss interventions for college students.
Methods:
From March to May 2022, 46 overweight and obese female college students from Chongqing Water Resources and Electric Engineering College were recruited and randomly divided into an experimental group (24 participants) and a control group (22 participants). The control group received CR (prohibiting ad libitum snacking), PA in the first week, high intensity interval training (HIIT) for 30 s, and moderate intensity continuous training (MICT) for 1-5 min alternate 4 sets, duration 15-20 min. From the second week, adjust to HIIT and MICT alternating 3 min each for 5 sets, totaling 30 min, 4 times/week, 70 min/time and BT (60-90 min/session, 3 times/week). The experimental group incorporated FMCT (10-15 min of focused training per session, integrated with PA and daily life) and BE (advocating a gradual transition to proper breathing methods in daily life and low intensity training, 5 sessions/day, 10 min each). Body oxygen level test (BOLT), Functional Movement Screen (FMS), sports exercise attitude, and body composition indicators were measured at baseline (T0), after 12 weeks of intervention (T1), and after one year of follow up (T2). The differences were analyzed between groups through generalized estimation equations, and mixed effect model analysis was employed to explore predictive relationships among variables.
Results:
The results of the generalized estimation equation showed that time main effects of BOLT values, FMS scores, and exercise attitude among female college students were statistically significant ( Wald χ 2=18.75, 14.89, 12.45, all P <0.01); further intragroup comparisons revealed that BOLT, functional motor screening (FMS) scores, and physical exercise attitudeof female college students in the experimental group increased compared to T0, while the control group only showed an increase at T1 (all P <0.05). The group main effects for the aforementioned three indicators were statistically significant ( Wald χ 2=6.33, 5.21, 4.88), and the time by group interactions of BOLT values and FMS scores were also statistically significant ( Wald χ 2=4.56, 3.97) (all P <0.05). The time main effects of body weight, body mass index (BMI), and body fat ratio(BFR) in female college students were statistically significant ( Wald χ 2=44.27, 13.90, 82.33); further intragroup comparisons revealed that the experimental group of female college students showed a decrease in body weight, BMI and BFR at T1 and T2 compared to T0, while the control group only showed a decrease in these indicators at T1 (all P <0.05). The group main effects of weight and BFR were statistically significant ( Wald χ 2= 4.11 , 6.46), and the time by group interaction of BFR was statistically significant ( Wald χ 2=8.73) (all P <0.05).The results of mixed effect model analysis showed that BOLT ( β =1.52) and FMS ( β =1.81) could both positively predict physical exercise attitude, and physical exercise attitude had statistically significant negative predictive effects on weight, BMI, and BFR ( β =-0.08, -0.03 , -0.03) (all P <0.01).
Conclusion
The "CPBBF" comprehensive intervention effectively maintains weight loss effects by modulating the energy compensation mechanism with strong robustness.

INTRODUCTION:
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) avoids the complications of general anaesthesia, reduces length of hospitalisation and reduces morbidity from surgery. As such, it is a strong alternative treatment for patients with comorbidities who are not surgical candidates. However, to our knowledge, there have only been 1 systematic review and 3 combined systematic review and meta-analyses on this topic to date. This systematic review and meta-analysis seeks to evaluate the efficacy and safety of RFA in the treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with longer follow-up durations.
METHOD:
PubMed, Embase and Cochrane databases were searched for relevant studies published from 1990 to 2021; 13 studies with a total of 1366 patients were included. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines and Sandelowski et al.'s approach1 to "negotiated consensual validation" were used to achieve consensus on the final list of articles to be included. All authors then assessed each study using a rating scheme modified from the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine.
RESULTS:
Pooled volume reduction rates (VRRs) from 1 to 48 months after RFA, complete disappearance rates (CDR) and complications were assessed. Pooled mean VRRs were 96.59 (95% confidence interval [CI] 91.05-102.13, I2=0%) at 12 months2-6 and 99.31 (95% CI 93.74-104.88, I2=not applicable) at 48 months.2,5 Five studies showed an eventual CDR of 100%.2,4,7-9 No life-threatening complications were recorded. The most common complications included pain, transient voice hoarseness, fever and less commonly, first-degree burn.
CONCLUSION
RFA may be an effective and safe alternative to treating PTC. Larger clinical trials with longer follow-up are needed to further evaluate the effectiveness of RFA in treating PTC.

The aim of this study was to investigate the contribution of lung zinc ions to pathogenesis of lung ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. Male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into control group, lung I/R group (I/R group), lung I/R + low-dose zinc chloride group (LZnCl2+I/R group), lung I/R + high-dose ZnCl2 group (HZnCl2+I/R group), lung I/R + medium-dose ZnCl2 group (MZnCl2+I/R group) and TPEN+MZnCl2+I/R group (n = 8 in each group). Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to measure the concentration of zinc ions in lung tissue. The degree of lung tissue injury was analyzed by observing HE staining, alveolar damage index, lung wet/dry weight ratio and lung tissue gross changes. TUNEL staining was used to detect cellular apoptosis in lung tissue. Western blot and RT-qPCR were used to determine the protein expression levels of caspase-3 and ZIP8, as well as the mRNA expression levels of zinc transporters (ZIP, ZNT) in lung tissue. The mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) of lung tissue was detected by JC-1 MMP detection kit. The results showed that, compared with the control group, the lung tissue damage, lung wet/dry weight ratio and alveolar damage index were significantly increased in the I/R group. And in the lung tissue, the concentration of Zn2+ was markedly decreased, while the cleaved caspase-3/caspase-3 ratio and apoptotic levels were significantly increased. The expression levels of ZIP8 mRNA and protein were down-regulated significantly, while the mRNA expression of other zinc transporters remained unchanged. There was also a significant decrease in MMP. Compared with the I/R group, both MZnCl2+I/R group and HZnCl2+I/R group exhibited significantly reduced lung tissue injury, lung wet/dry weight ratio and alveolar damage index, increased Zn2+ concentration, decreased ratio of cleaved caspase-3/caspase-3 and apoptosis, and up-regulated expression levels of ZIP8 mRNA and protein. In addition, the MMP was significantly increased in the lung tissue. Zn2+ chelating agent TPEN reversed the above-mentioned protective effects of medium-dose ZnCl2 on the lung tissue in the I/R group. The aforementioned results suggest that exogenous administration of ZnCl2 can improve lung I/R injury in rats.

The chemical constituents were systematically separated from the roots of Berberis polyantha by various chromatographic methods, including silica gel column chromatography, HP20 column chromatography, polyamide column chromatography, reversed-phase C_(18) column chromatography, and preparative high-performance liquid chromatography. The structures of the compounds were identified by physicochemical properties and spectroscopic techniques(1D NMR, 2D NMR, UV, MS, and CD). Four phenylpropanoids were isolated from the methanol extract of the roots of B. polyantha, and they were identified as(2R)-1-(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-propanone-O-β-D-glucopyranoside(1), methyl 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzoate(2),(+)-syringaresinol(3), and syringaresinol-4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside(4). Compound 1 was a new compound, and other compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time. The anti-inflammatory activity of these compounds was evaluated based on the release of nitric oxide(NO) in the culture of lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced RAW264.7 macrophages. At a concentration of 10 μmol·L~(-1), all the four compounds inhibited the LPS-induced release of NO in RAW264.7 cells, demonstrating potential anti-inflammatory properties.
