Objective:To systematically review risk prediction models for frailty in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods:Relevant literature on frailty risk prediction models for MHD patients were retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINHAL, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, and China Biology Medicine disc from inception to March 25, 2024. Two researchers independently screened the literature and extracted data. The PROBAST tool was used to assess the methodological quality of the prediction models. Meta-analysis of predictive factors was conducted using Stata 16.0 software.Results:A total of 13 studies were included, comprising 19 frailty risk prediction models for MHD patients. All studies exhibited a high risk of bias. Six studies conducted internal validation, and three studies conducted external validation. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ( AUC) of the included prediction models ranged from 0.720 to 0.998. Meta-analysis revealed that age [ OR=1.149, 95% CI (1.070, 1.234), P<0.001], female gender [ OR=4.472, 95% CI (1.799, 11.117), P<0.001], nutritional score [ OR=2.650, 95% CI (1.010, 6.970), P=0.048], comorbidities [ OR=1.990, 95% CI (1.500, 2.650), P<0.001], and serum albumin [ OR=0.830, 95% CI (0.790, 0.880), P<0.001] were significant influencing factors for frailty in MHD patients. Conclusions:Risk prediction models for frailty in MHD patients are still in the research stage. Healthcare professionals should pay close attention to frailty risks in older patients, females, those with malnutrition, comorbidities, and low serum albumin levels, and implement timely interventions.

Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a 6-month Ba Duan Jin exercise program in improving the balance of community-dwelling older adults.Methods:A two arms, parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted in 1 028 community residents aged 60-80 years in 40 communities in 5 provinces of China. Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test.Results:A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95% CI: 2.23-3.88) points ( P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95% CI: 4.03-5.37) points ( P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement ( P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions:This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos herbal pair on the occurrence and progres-sion of light source-induced myopia in guinea pigs.METHODS The three-band fluorescent lamp was used to irradiate guinea pigs to establish a model of light source-induced myopia.Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos herbal pair extract was added in the feed to raise guinea pigs.Ophthalmic A-type ultrasonic measuring instrument was used to detect the eye axis.HE staining was used to observe pathological damage to the retina of the guinea pigs.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect dopamine(DA)and melatonin(MT)levels in guinea pig retinas,and transcriptomic analysis and other methods were used to explore the effects of Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos on light-induced myopia in guinea pigs.RESULTS After 6 weeks,compared with the normal group,the eye axis of model group guinea pigs increased significantly(P<0.01),thus,the myopia model was successfully established.Lycii Fruc-tus-Chrysanthemi Flos herbal pair extract could effectively slow down the thickening of the lens and the deepening of the vitreous cavi-ty,thereby delaying the overgrowth of the eye axis in model guinea pigs.The retinal tissue of guinea pigs in the model group became thinner,the thickness and number of cells in the inner and outer nuclear layer of the retina were significantly reduced,the ganglion nu-clei were sparse,the vacuolization of the ganglion cell layer was obvious.Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos extract could protect retinal cells.The thickness and cell number of the retinal inner nuclear layer and outer nuclear layer were increased,and ganglion cell nuclei were increased.ELISA assay showed that the concentrations of DA and MT in the retina of model group guinea pigs were significantly reduced(P<0.05),and the medium and high doses of Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos herbal pair extract could effectively increase the concentration of dopamine in the retina and serum of guinea pigs in the model group(P<0.01,P<0.001).The differential genes screened by eye transcriptomics analysis were mainly enriched in PPAR signals pathway,collagen-containing extracellular matrix and other related pathways.ELISA results showed that the high dose of Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos extract could significantly increase the content of PPARγ and COL1A1(P<0.01)and reduce the content of SMA(P<0.05).CONCLUSION The Lycii Fructus-Chry-santhemi Flos herbal pair extract has effects on delaying the occurrence and progression of light source-induced myopia in guinea pigs,protecting retinal cells,improving DA secretion disorders caused by artificial light environment,and regulating the level of PPAR,which has positive significance for the prevention and control of light source-induced myopia and provides a scientific basis for the ra-tional use of drugs in clinical practice and the creation of eye health products.

Objective: To analyze the characteristics distribution of falls among students aged 6-17 in 2018, and to provide data support for preventing falls among students and formulating the corresponding policies. Methods: Data of falls among students aged 6-17 in China in 2018 were collected from the the National Injury Surveillance System (NISS) for analyzing its demographic characteristics, injury occurrence and clinical traits of falling. Results: In total, 42 735 cases of fall aged 6-17 were collected from the NISS in China in 2018, which accounted for 54.03% of all cases, with a sex ratio of 2.34∶1, the proportion of students aged 6-11 was the highest(53.78%). The proportion of falls from March to June was the highest(42.12%), and the peak time when falls occurred was forenoon 10:00-10:59(8.40%). School and school-related area(40.40%), home(18.96%) and public residential institution (15.35%) were the sites where falls mainly occurred. The top three activities when falls occurred were leisure activities(47.41%), sports activities(23.90%) and walking(9.77%). Bruise/scrape(54.49%), sprain/strain(21.98%) and fracture(12.69%) were the major nature of injury. The most common body parts falls involved were lower limbs(34.71%), head(29.85%) and upper limbs(25.10%). The injury of falling was mainly characterized by mild ones(83.44%). Conclusion There were more cases of falls on students aged 6-17 from the NISS in China in 2018, mainly males. The epidemiological characteristics were relatively variable, so targeted prevention program of falls should be conducted.

Objective:To understand the epidemiologic characteristics of fall in people aged 60 years and above in China from 2015 to 2018, and provide basis for the prevention of fall in old people and the development of related policies.Methods:Descriptive analysis was conducted on general information, injury occurrence information and injury clinical characteristics of fall cases in people aged 60 years and above by using the data from Chinese National Injury Surveillance System(NISS).Results:A total of 205 670 fall cases were reported to NISS from 2015 to 2018 with the male to female ratio of 1.37. Falls mainly occurred during 10:00-10:59 am (11.91%). The top three places where fall might occur were home (56.41%), road (17.24%) and public residence (14.36%). Leisure activity(37.56%), housework (24.20%) and walk (15.07%) were top three activities in which fall occurred. Bruise/scrape (42.17%), fracture (31.79%) and sprain/strain (14.62%) were the major injuries. The most common body parts involved were low limbs (31.38%), head (22.46%) and truncus(20.71%). Moderate and severe injuries accounted for 37.21% of all cases, and 22.49% of the elderly seeking medical care due to fall required hospitalization.Conclusions:The number of fall in people aged 60 years and above increased from 2015 to 2018. The elderly is a key population in the prevention and control of fall.

Objective:To landscape the contents, similarities, and differences of the objectives and strategies for unintentional injury prevention and control in the national and 31 provincial Children's Development Outlines from 2011 to 2020, and propose relevant suggestions.Methods:The content analysis method was used to extract, encode and classify the objective and strategy text of unintentional injury in all Children's Development Outlines and construct the theme of strategy text combined with the '5E' Injury Prevention Framework. Taking the national Children's Development Outline as the benchmark, the relevant contents of 31 provincial Children's Development Outlines in the same period were compared.Results:All Children's Development Outlines took child injury prevention and control as the primary objective set in health, environment, and safety. The national and most provincial Children's Development Outlines set this goal in health, while others put it in environment or safety. Reducing injury-induced death, disability and occurrence were designated as the main content in the objective of child injury prevention and control. However, there were no quantitative requirements for injury occurrence and disability in all the provincial outlines. The themes of unintentional injury prevention and control strategies in all Children's Development Outlines could be divided into the mechanism, law enforcement, education, environment, engineering, first aid, assessment, and economic strategies. Mechanism strategy was the primary domain, followed by law enforcement, education, environment, and engineering strategies, but less attention was put on first aid, assessment, and economic strategies. The unintentional injury prevention and control strategy in the provincial Children's Development Outlines was mainly based on the national outline. Still, it also varied with some emphasis and refinement in different items among all the provinces.Conclusions:Children's Development Outline is a vital policy guarantee for implementing child injury prevention and control work. Developing a system involving good primary data, mechanisms and strategies, law enforcement, and environmental and engineering-related strategies for more common types of child injuries has been attached to great importance. Actively carrying out assessments and encouraging the adoption of more economical strategies could further enrich and improve the unintentional injury prevention and control in Children's Development Outline and promote the progress of related work in China.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of injuries among children aged 0-17 years from 28 counties in six provinces.Methods:According to the earlier study on data in different local areas and the current work plan, we selected the survey objects for a general survey on child injury prevalence in the last 12 months. The subjects included guardians of children who did not attend kindergartens, children from kindergartens, and primary school grades 1-3. Children from grades 4-6 primary school, junior high school, and senior high school were also included.Results:The overall rate of injured children was 4.83%, with the incidence of injuries as 5.75% in the last 12 months before the survey. Both the rate of injured children and incidence of injuries were higher in boys than that in girls. Children whose primary caregivers were relatives, grandparents, minors, or with an education level below the primary school had a relatively higher rate of both injured children and incidence of injuries. The first cause of child injury was fall. The time of child injury was mainly from June to October, mainly at home, with the main activity as playing. The significant injuries in children were contusion and abrasion, and the main parts injured were lower limbs, upper limbs, and head. Most of the injuries were cured, and the primary treatment was outpatient and emergency treatment.Conclusions:Boys and children whose parents can not take care of are the priority population for child injury prevention and control. Targeted prevention and control measures should be implemented according to the characteristics of injuries among children of different ages.

Objective:To understand the epidemiological characteristic and influencing factors of animal injuries among children from 28 counties/districts in 6 provinces of China to provide evidence for formulating related prevention measures and strategies.Methods:Data was obtained from 'Children injury prevention project, 2016-2020'. Variables on the characteristics, including incidence, locations, related activities, time, and outcomes among children, were described. The negative binomial regression model analyzed animal injury frequency influencing factors.Results:There were 107 029 boys and 97 599 girls, with a gender ratio of 1.10, among the 204 628 children aged 0-17 in 28 counties/districts in 6 provinces of China. Per-person and per-time incidence rates of animal injuries were 0.70% and 0.72%, both higher in boys than in girls. Animal injuries among children mainly occurred in home (73.20%), road/street (7.51%), and open space of community/village (6.77%), during playing (63.15%), with the peak time between 12:01-18:00 (45.03%). Upper limbs (47.89%), lower limbs (35.31%), and head (8.44%) were the most injured body parts. Outpatient or emergency treatment (85.19%) had been carried out. The negative binomial regression showed that sex, grade, guardian educational level, urban or rural, and daily communication between guardians and children as influencing factors in the frequency of animal injuries among children.Conclusions:Special attention should be given to boys, at home, in projects on animal injury prevention and control. There were many influencing factors of animal injury frequency. Knowledge of injury prevention should be popularized to children and guardians. Related comprehensive intervention should be developed in families, schools, and social settings.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of traffic injuries among children aged 0-17 years in 28 counties of 6 provinces and to provide prevention suggestions.Methods:Using the general survey method, a questionnaire survey was conducted on the road traffic injuries of children in 28 counties of 6 provinces in 2017.Results:A total of 204 628 students were surveyed, 908 of whom had experiences of road traffic injuries. Road traffic injuries were 0.44% among children in 28 counties of 6 provinces in China and 0.94% among children who did not attend kindergartens. July is a high incidence period of road traffic injuries among children (12.92%). When children suffer from road traffic injuries, the first three activities were playing (21.61%), riding an electric bicycle (20.40%), walking (20.07%). Most injuries appeared as contusion/abrasion, accounting for 42.26% of the total cases. The injured parts were mainly lower limbs, upper limbs, and heads, accounting for 38.85%, 23.29%, and 20.20%. Most children with road traffic injuries recovered after related treatments, accounting for 85.43% of all cases. The median length of hospital stay of children with road traffic injuries was seven days, and the median expense in hospitals was 3 000 Yuan (RMB).Conclusions:The incidence of road traffic injuries among males appeared higher than females, and the children who did not attend the kindergartens were the highest. During playing, riding an electric bicycle and walking were the top three activities prone to road traffic injuries.
