Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(9):1330-1334
Objective:
To investigate the incidence and influencing factors of new onset suicidal behaviors among junior and senior high school students, so as to provide evidence for early warning and intervention.
Methods:
Using a cluster sampling method, baseline data were collected from September to November 2023 among 2 379 adolescents selected from 2 junior high schools, 2 general senior high schools and 2 vocational senior high schools in Wuhan, Hubei Province, with follow up carried out from September to November 2024. Data were collected using the School Adaptation Scale, the Essential Resilience Scale, the Personal Social Support Scale, the Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire, the Adolescent Life Events Scale, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors influencing new onset suicidal behavior among junior and senior high school students.
Results:
Among junior and senior high school students without suicide risk at baseline, 53.55% remained stable risk free during follow up, while 13.28% developed new suicidal behavior during follow up, of which suicidal ideation, suicide plan and suicide attempts accounted for 11.69%, 8.83% and 6.52%, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression revealed that increased depressive symptoms at follow up elevated the risk of overall new onset suicidal behaviors ( OR =4.14), ideation ( OR = 4.59), plans ( OR =4.24), and attempts ( OR =4.09); poor sleep quality also increased the risk of overall new onset suicidal behaviors ( OR =2.23), plans ( OR =2.03), and attempts ( OR =2.65) (all P <0.05). Non boarding junior and senior high school students had lower risks of overall new onset suicidal behaviors and ideation ( OR=0.70 and 0.49, respectively); secondary school students with academic performance ranking in the top 20%-30% of their class had a lower risk of new onset ideation ( OR =0.27); and those whose place of origin was outside the city had a lower risk of new onset plans ( OR =0.49) (all P <0.05).
Conclusions
New onset suicidal behaviors among junior and senior high school students exhibit dynamic and stage specific differences. Depressive symptoms serve as a common core risk factor across all stages, whereas sleep quality, academic performance, boarding status, and place of origin exert differential influences at distinct stages.

Objective:
To investigate the association of physical activity and screen time with overweight and obesity among children and adolescents with special needs in Tianjin, so as to provide scientific evidence for childhood obesity prevention and intervention measures in the population.
Methods:
From January 2022 to June 2024, 296 children and adolescents with intellectual disabilities and autism spectrum disorders aged 2-18 years were recruited from special education schools and institutions in Tianjin. Height and weight were measured, and a standardized questionnaire was used to assess physical activity and screen time. Binary Logistic regression analysis was carried out to investigate the association of physical activity and screen time with overweight and obesity.
Results:
The prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents with special needs in Tianjin were 17.2% and 21.6%, respectively, and the combined prevalence of overweight and obesity was 38.9%. The median of moderatetovigorous physical activity (MVPA) time was 0.20 h/d, and physical activity sufficiency rate was 7.8%. The median of screen time was 1.79 h/d, and the screen time compliance rate was 68.2%. The binary Logistic regression results showed that lower levels of MVPA time and increased screen time were associated with a higher risk of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents with special needs [OR(95%CI)=1.80(1.06-3.07), 2.40(1.42-4.07),P<0.05].
Conclusions
Insufficient physical activity and excessive screen time are associated with an increased risk of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents with special needs. Therefore, comprehensive intervention measures should be implemented as early as possible to prevent and reduce the incidence of overweight and obesity in this population.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of Chevron-Akin osteotomy with cannulated compression screw and absorbable screw fixation in the treatment of moderate and severe hallux valgus.Methods:The data of 52 patients with moderate to severe hallux valgus treated in Sichuan Provincial Orthopaedic Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the fixation method, they were divided into metal screw group and absorbable screw group. In the metal screw group, there were 25 cases (26 feet), 2 males (2 feet) and 23 females (24 feet), aged 36.7±4.9 years (range, 21-59 years), 12 feet on the left side, 14 feet on the right side, moderate 20 feet and severe 6 feet. There were 27 cases (29 feet) in the absorbable screw group, including 1 male (1 foot) and 26 female (28 feet), aged 34.1±5.5 years (range, 19-56 years), 16 feet on the left side, 13 feet on the right side, moderate 22 feet and severe 7 feet. The healing time and complications of osteotomy were recorded between the two groups, and the hallux valgus angle (HVA), first-second intermetatarsal angle (1-2 IMA), American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), hallux-metatarsophalangeal-interphalangeal joint score and visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain were compared before and after the operation.Results:All 52 patients were followed up. The follow-up time was 14.0±3.4 months (range, 11-27 months) in the metal screw group and 15.1±2.7 months (range, 13-24 months) in the absorbable screw group. In all patients, the incision healed in one stage, and no endovegetal rejection occurred. The osteotomy healing time was 3.8±0.8 months (range, 2-5 months) in the metal screw group and 3.4±1.1 months (range, 2.5-5 months) in the absorbable screw group, with no statistically significant difference ( t=1.014, P=0.417). In the metal screw group, there were symptoms of medial internal fixation irritation in 2 feet, medial osteophyte or thread knot irritation in 2 feet, and hallux valgus recurrence in 1 foot. The complication rate was 19%(5/26). In the absorbable screw group, medial osteophyte or thread knot stimulated one foot and hallux valgus recurred one foot, and the complication rate was 7%(2/29). The difference in complications between the two groups was statistically significant (χ 2=8.051, P=0.012). At 12 months after operation, for the metal screw group and the absorbable screw group, HVA (13.7°±2.1° and 12.9°±3.8°), 1-2 IMA (7.2°±1.5° and 7.8°±1.2°), AOFAS score (91.4±2.2 and 90.8±3.6 points) and VAS score (1.1±0.3 and 1.3±0.4 points), respectively, were significantly higher than those in the preoperative (HVA: 37.2°± 5.4° and 35.8°±4.7°, 1-2 IMA: 18.3°± 1.8° and 17.9°±1.7°, AOFAS score: 60.4±5.6 and 58.4±7.1 points, VAS: 6.4±0.6 and 6.8±0.4 points) improvement ( P<0.05), while there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of complications in metal screw group was 19%(5/26), while in absorbable screw group it was 7%(2/29), with a statistically significant difference (χ 2=8.051, P=0.012). Conclusions:Both cannulated compression screw in Chevron-Akin osteotomy and absorbable screw fixation can have a good fixation effect in the treatment of moderate and severe hallux valgus. Absorbable screw fixation has the advantages of low complication rate, less interference with artifacts in later imaging examination and evaluation.

Aim To elucidate the molecular mecha-nism underlying the inhibitory effect of liquidambaric acid(LDA)targeting TNF receptor associated factor 6(TRAF6)in colorectal cancer.Methods This study employed microscale thermophoresis(MST),drug af-finity responsive target stability assay(DARTS)and cellular thermal shift assay(CETSA)to confirm the direct binding of LDA to TRAF6.Additionally,we generated TRAF6 knockout colorectal cancer HCT116 cells using CRISPR/Cas9 technology,and assessed the impact of LDA on TRAF6-regulated Hippo/YAP and Wnt signaling pathways through immunofluorescence a-nalysis and TOPFlash/Renilla luciferase reporter sys-tem.Co-IP and proximity ligation assays(PLA)were conducted to investigate LDA-regulated TRAF6 pro-tein-protein interactions and elucidate molecular mech-anisms.Results The direct binding of LDA to TRAF6 was confirmed in cell lysates and living cells.LDA promoted TRAF6-dependent nuclear translocation of YAP in colorectal cancer cells,and inhibited Wnt signaling by overexpressing TRAF6.Co-IP and PLA revealed that TRAF6 formed a tripartite complex with YAP and β-catenin in colon cancer cells,where TRAF6 was a key scaffolding protein of the tripartite complex.LDA disrupted the interactions between the TRAF domain of TRAF6 and YAP,as well as YAP and β-catenin.Conclusion LDA regulates Hippo/YAP signaling pathway by targeting TRAF6 and inhib-its colorectal cancer.
