Objective:
To evaluate the comprehensive intervention effect of lunch for primary and secondary school students in Minhang District, so as to provide a theoretical and practical basis for lunch intervention in school.
Methods:
From October to December 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 1 937 students from one primary and secondary school in Minhang District.A comprehensive intervention measure focusing on "reducing oil and salt" for lunch recipe optimization and nutrition education was carried out, and a questionnaire survey was conducted to evaluate the intervention effect three months later. Chi square test and Wilcoxon rank test were used to compare the data before and after the intervention.
Results:
After intervention, the use of cooking oil and salt, the supply of protein and fat in primary and secondary school lunches were reduced, and had no obvious impact on energy and other major nutrients. After intervention, compared to before intervention, the proportion of primary school students who felt that lunch was greasy decreased (8.9%, 6.2%, χ 2=4.35), and the proportion of primary and secondary school students who felt that lunch were delicious decreased significantly (33.2%, 23.2%; 63.9%, 53.5%, χ 2=26.39, 17.52) ( P < 0.05 ). Secondary school students also felt reduced variety of food ingredients (46.9%, 38.3%, χ 2=16.05, P <0.05). In addition, after intervention, the total surplus rate of primary school students meals decreased (7.4%, 4.4%, χ 2=5.73), mainly reflected in the decrease of the surplus rate of staple foods (7.1%, 2.4%, χ 2=17.39), while the surplus rate of vegetable dishes increased ( 16.0 %, 21.2%, χ 2=6.01) ( P <0.05). Although there was no significant change in the total surplus rate of meals for secondary school students, the surplus rate of staple foods decreased (12.9%, 5.4%, χ 2=33.52), while the surplus rates of meat and vegetable dishes increased (11.2%, 26.9%; 17.5%, 33.2%, χ 2=74.26, 61.88) ( P <0.05). After intervention, there was no statistically significant difference in the overweight and obesity rates of primary school students ( χ 2=0.11,0.43) and secondary school students ( χ 2=0.01,0.00) compared to before intervention( P >0.05). After intervention, the lung capacity of primary school students [1 564 (1 269,1 890) mL] and sitting forward flexion [11.3 (7.6, 15.2) cm] increased compared to before intervention [1 522 (1 259, 1 819 ) mL, 10.5 (6.3, 13.5) cm] ( Z =2.20, 4.68, P <0.01), but there was no statistically significant difference in lung capacity and sitting forward flexion of secondary school students before and after intervention ( Z =-0.46, -0.08, P >0.05).
Conclusion
The comprehensive intervention of school lunch has promoted a significant decrease in the use of oil and salt in lunch and improved the quality of recipes, and has a positive impact on the situation of leftover lunch and the health of students to a certain extent.

ObjectiveTo understand the visual environment sanitation in primary and secondary school classrooms in Minhang District, Shanghai, and to investigate the factors affecting the decline in students’ visual acuity. MethodsIn 2020, among all the primary and secondary schools in Minhang District, according to different types of classroom structures, levels, orientations, unilateral lighting, and bilateral lighting, a total of 20 231 students from 674 classrooms in primary and secondary schools were selected through stratified cluster sampling. Each monitored classroom was regarded as a research unit, and the naked eye vision of students was tested using a standard logarithmic vision chart during the 2020 and 2021 academic years. The change in average visual acuity between the two measurements was taken as the dependent variable, and the visual environment indices were considered as independent variables. The relationship between classroom visual environment indices and the decline in students’ naked eye vision was analyzed. ResultsThe qualification rates for per capita classroom area, window to floor area ratio, average illuminance of the blackboard, uniformity of blackboard illuminance, average illuminance of the desks, uniformity of desk illuminance, lighting coefficient of classroom, blackboard reflection ratio, back wall reflection ratio, and distance between lamps and desks were 79.53%, 88.58%, 46.74%, 70.33%,64.69%, 80.86%, 71.81%, 20.30%, 1.63%, and 97.53%, respectively. The average naked eye vision of primary and secondary school students in the 2020 academic year was 4.75±0.37 (right eye) and 4.76±0.37 (left eye), while in the 2021 academic year, it was 4.70±0.39 (right eye) and 4.71±0.38 (left eye). There was a significant decrease in the naked eye vision of primary and secondary school students in the 2021 academic year compared to that of 2020 (P<0.05). Univariate linear regression analysis showed a significant correlation between grade, average illuminance of the blackboard, average illuminance of the desks, uniformity of desk illuminance, lighting coefficient, and distance between lamps and desks, and the decline of students’ naked eye vision within one academic year (P<0.05). After adjusting for grade, multiple linear regression analysis revealed a significant correlation between the average illuminance of the blackboard, uniformity of desk illuminance, lighting coefficient, and distance between lamps and desks, and the decline of students’ naked eye vision within one academic year (P<0.05). Higher average illuminance of the blackboard, uniformity of desk illuminance, lighting coefficient, and distance between lamps and desks were protective factors for naked eye vision. ConclusionThe visual environment of primary and secondary school classrooms in Minhang District is a matter of concern. Average illuminance of the blackboard, uniformity of desk illuminance, lighting coefficient, and distance between lamps and desks are related to the degree of visual impairment in students over a year.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical safety of Naoxintong (NXT) capsules after marketing, find out the potential risk factors of the drug as soon as possible, and reveal the incidence, nature, and clinical manifestations of the adverse events (ADE) and adverse reactions (ADR) of NXT capsules, so as to provide a basis for safe use of the drug in clinical practice. MethodA prospective, large-sample, multi-center observational cohort study was conducted to monitor all the 7 345 inpatients and outpatients orally taking NXT in 14 hospitals in China from January to December in 2018, with at least one follow-up. The demographic characteristics, disease type, NXT medication, ADR occurrence, characteristics, and prognosis of the patients were collected. SPSS 23.0 was used for single-factor and multivariate logistic regression to predict the influencing factors of ADR. ResultThe male and female patients accounted for similar proportions. There were 5 081 patients (79.40%) aged ≥60 years and 3 153 patients (49.27%) with body mass index (BMI) exceeding the normal standard. There were 344 (5.38%) patients with a history of allergy to medicines and food, 9 (0.14%) patients with a family history of allergy, and 52 (0.81%) patients with a history of allergic diseases. The ADRs associated with NXT occurred in 22 patients, with the incidence of 0.34%. The clinical manifestations of ADR appeared in 31 cases, involving 10 organs/systems, of which gastrointestinal system damage was the most common (17, 54.84%). All ADRs were mild or moderate. Most ADRs (19, 86.36%) occurred within 4 weeks after administration. The patients with alleviated NXT-associated ADRs accounted for 81.82%. No indicators related to significant increases in ADR risks were found. ConclusionNXT is well tolerated in the general population. The hospital centralized monitoring for the clinical safety of oral Chinese patent drugs based on HIS data and Web tracking and follow-up system is an essential means for the post-market research on the safety of drugs.

Background The prevalence of malnutrition in older adults is high. Early use of appropriate screening scales for malnutrition risk and early intervention can effectively improve life quality of the elderly in communities. Objective To evaluate the risk of malnutrition among the community-dwelling elderly in a district of Shanghai and explore its influencing factors. Methods From October to December 2021, a total of 960 seniors aged 65 years and above in community committees (villages) of Minhang District were selected by stratified random sampling. Trained investigators conducted one-to-one interviews with included seniors using questionnaires. The questionnaires included the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), the Activity of Daily Living Scale (ADL), and the malnutrition risk assessment for elderly adults. Height, weight, waist circumference, and calf circumference were measured. Chi-square test and logistic regression were used to analyze potential influencing factors of malnutrition in the elderly. Results Among the 960 community-dwelling seniors of Minhang District, 13 (1.35%) were malnourished and 311 (32.40%) were at the risk of malnutrition. There were statistically significant differences in nutritional status across different categories of age, sex, monthly family income, education level, marital status, waist circumference, dental health status, activity of daily living, nutrition knowledge, suffering from chronic diseases, having > 3 chronic diseases, taking > 3 long-term prescriptions, depression symptoms, sleeping duration, daily outdoor activity time, number of daily food species (milk/soy products/fish/meat/poultry/eggs), daily intake of vegetables and fruits, daily consumption of cooking oil, frequency of physical exercise, frequency of smoking, and living alone (P < 0.05). The logistic regression analysis results showed that poor dental conditions, insufficient daily intake of milk/soy products/fish/meat/poultry/eggs (<3 kinds), insufficient daily intake of vegetables and fruits (<500 g), excessive daily consumption of cooking oil (>25 g), insufficient daily outdoor activities (<1 h·d−1), living alone, low educational level (primary school and below), suffering from chronic diseases, having > 3 chronic diseases, taking > 3 long-term prescriptions, and being single/widowed/divorced were the main risk factors for nutritional abnormalities in the elderly (P< 0.05). Conclusion The elderly in Minhang District of Shanghai have a high malnutrition risk, and their nutritional status is affected by multiple factors, including poor dental status, irrational dietary structure, insufficient time for outdoor activities, suffering from chronic diseases, having > 3 chronic diseases, taking > 3 long-term prescriptions, low educational level, living alone, and being single/widowed/divorced.

BACKGROUND: Insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is an important embryonic mitosis growth promoting factor, whichplays a critical role in the process of maintaining normal cell growth. The gene expression of IGF2 is under epigeneticregulation in the way of genomic imprinting. Imprinting loss of IGF2 is likely to be associated with the abnormaldevelopment of the individual and tumorigenesis.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of imprinting loss of IGF2 gene on the differentiation of mouse embryonic stemcells into islet-like cells.METHODS: Two kinds of mouse embryonic stem cells (SF1-G and SF1-1) were induced to differentiate into islet-likecells in vitro. The expression of Insulin gene was detected by real-time PCR and cell immunofluorescence. Theexpression of IGF2 was detected by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in the cellsbefore and after induced differentiation. The level of insulin released at terminal differentiation stage was tested by insulinrelease assay in vitro.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) There was no change in the imprinting state of the two kinds of mouse embryonicstem cells with normal and imprinted IGF-2 gene before and after differentiation. (2) In the induced cells, the expressionlevel of insulin in the SF1-1 group was higher than that in the SF1-G group, although there was no significant differencein the insulin release between the two kinds of cells. (3)The imprinting loss of IGF-2 gene may be related to theup-regulation of insulin mRNA expression in terminal cells during induced differentiation.
