Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(9):1232-1236
Objective:
To explore the association between mental health and muscle strength among Chinese adolescents aged 13- 18, providing a theoretical foundation and intervention strategies for mental health promotion.
Methods:
Data were obtained from the 2019 Chinese National Survey on Students Constitution and Health, including 98 631 Chinese adolescents aged 13- 18. Psychological distress was assessed by using the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10), and mental well being was measured with the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well being Scale (WEMWBS). Based on the gender and age specific Z scores of various test items [grip strength, standing long jump, pull ups (for males), and sit ups (for females)], muscle strength index (MSI) was constructed to evaluate the comprehensive level of muscle strength in adolescents. According to the Dual factor Model (DFM) of mental health, participants were categorized into four groups:troubled, symptomatic but content, vulnerable, and complete mental health. Gender differences were analyzed by using Chi-square tests, trends were tested with Cochran-Armitage tests, and multinomial Logistic regression models were applied to assess associations between muscle strength and mental health among adolescents.
Results:
In 2019, 37.4% of Chinese adolescents aged 13-18 were reported of high mental distress, and 59.9% were reported of low mental well being. Boys had significantly lower rates of high mental distress (35.3%) and low mental well being (55.6%) compared to girls (39.4%, 64.3%), and the differences were of statistical significance ( χ 2=176.13, 780.42, both P <0.05). In 2019, the rate of complete mental health among adolescents showed a downward trend with increasing age ( χ 2 trend = 258.47) and a gradual upward trend with increasing muscle strength levels ( χ 2 trend =123.14),and both boys and girls exhibited similar trends ( χ 2 trend =103.83, 168.46; 57.00 , 67.34) (all P <0.05). The results of the unordered multiclass Logistic regression model showed that after controlling for confounding factors such as age and gender, when the completely pathological group as a reference, for every 1 unit increase in MSI in adolescents, the likelihood of being in a completely mental health state increased by 29% ( OR = 1.29); for every unit increase in the Z-score for pull ups, the likelihood of being in a completely mental health state increased by 6% ( OR =1.06) among boys; for every 1 unit increase in sit up Z score, the likelihood of being in a completely mental health state increased by 19% ( OR =1.19) among girls (all P <0.05).
Conclusions
The mental health status of Chinese adolescents is not good enough. Muscle strength is positively associated with mental health.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2024;45(8):1171-1175
Objective:
To analyze the prevalence of comorbidity of spinal curvature abnormality and malnutrition among primary and secondary school students aged 10-18 years in Tianjin in 2023, so as to provide scientific basis for the combined prevention of common diseases and multiple diseases among students and the construction of school health system.
Methods:
In September to October 2023, 31 884 primary and secondary school students aged 10 to 18 years in Tianjin were selected using stratified cluster random sampling. Abnormal spinal curvature in children and adolescents was assessed by Sereening of Spinal Curvature Abnormality of Children and Adolescents, while stunting, wasting, overweight, and obesity were determined according to the Screening for Malnutrition among Schoolage Children and Adolescents and Screening for Overweight and Obesity among Schoolage Children and Adolescents. The χ2 test was used to compare betweengroup differences in coprevalence, and multiple Logistic regression models were used to analyze the risk of different comorbidity types in different clusters.
Results:
The coprevalence of spinal curvature abnormality and malnutrition among primary and secondary school students in Tianjin was 1.6%, which was higher for girls than boys (1.8%, 1.4%), higher (2.5%) for senior high schools than for junior high schools and elementary schools (2.0%, 0.5%), and higher in rural than in urban areas (2.1%, 1.1%) (χ2=9.45, 141.92, 46.94, P<0.05). Multiple Logistic regression models showed that junior high school girls had a higher risk of incorrect posture comorbid with stunting and wasting (OR=4.52, 95%CI=1.84-11.06) and incorrect posture comorbid with overweight and obesity (OR=2.67, 95%CI=1.74-4.10) than boys, and that scoliosis/sagittal spinal abnormality comorbid with stunting and wasting (OR=0.10, 95%CI=0.02-0.44) risk was lower than that of boys, senior high school girls had a lower risk of scoliosis/sagittal spinal abnormality comorbid with overweight and obesity (OR=0.27, 95%CI=0.11-0.66) (P<0.05).
Conclusions
The coprevalence of spinal curvature abnormality and malnutrition is specific among primary and secondary school students in Tianjin, and the comorbidity type varies by gender and education stage. There is a need to increase prevention and control of spinal curvature abnormalities in school health working, intensive screening of key populations, and timely intervention.

Osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture (OPHF) is one of the common osteoporotic fractures in the aged, with an incidence only lower than vertebral compression fracture, hip fracture, and distal radius fracture. OPHF, secondary to osteoporosis and characterized by poor bone quality, comminuted fracture pattern, slow healing, and severely impaired shoulder joint function, poses a big challenge to the current clinical diagnosis and treatment. In the field of diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of OPHF, traditional Chinese and Western medicine have accumulated rich experience and evidence from evidence-based medicine and achieved favorable outcomes. However, there is still a lack of guidance from a relevant consensus as to how to integrate the advantages of the two medical systems and achieve the integrated diagnosis and treatment. To promote the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, relevant experts from Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatric Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Youth Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Surgeon Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine have been organized to formulate Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine ( version 2024) by searching related literatures and based on the evidences from evidence-based medicine. This consensus consists of 13 recommendations about the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, aimed at standardizing, systematizing, and personalizing the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinse and Western medicine to improve the patients ′ function.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of sevoflurane on Ca 2+ transporter expression in cardiomyocytes during right ventricular remodeling in rats with pulmonary arterial hypertension. Methods:Twenty-four clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 200-250 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=6 each) by the random number table method: control group (CM group), sevoflurane group (CS group), monocrotaline group (M group) and sevoflurane + monocrotaline group (S group). Monocrotaline 60 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected in group M and group S, and monocrotaline lysate was intraperitoneally injected in group CM. The rats in S and CS groups inhaled 2.5% sevoflurane for 1 h, twice a week, at an interval of 3 days starting from the first day after injection of monocrotaline. Pulmonary artery acceleration time and pulmonary artery ejection time were measured by transthoracic echocardiography at 6 weeks after monocrotaline injection. The chest was exposed under 3% sevoflurane anesthesia, the heart was perfused, and the pulmonary artery branch and right ventricular myocardial tissues were retained. The wall thickness of pulmonary arterioles and cross-section area of right ventricular cardiomyocytes were observed by HE staining. The expression of Ca 2+ transporter in right ventricular cardiomyocytes was detected by Western blot. Results:Compared with CM group, the ratio of pulmonary artery acceleration time to pulmonary artery ejection time was significantly decreased, the cross-section area of right ventricular cardiomyocytes was increased, the wall thickness of pulmonary arteriole was increased, the expression of type 1 sodium-calcium exchange and inositol triphosphate receptor was up-regulated, and the expression of voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel α1C subunit, type 2 ryanodine receptor, sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium pump 2α and proteinphilin-2 was down-regulated in M group ( P<0.01). Compared with group M, the ratio of pulmonary artery acceleration time to pulmonary artery ejection time was significantly increased, the cross-section area of right ventricular cardiomyocytes was decreased, the wall thickness of pulmonary arteriole was decreased, the expression of type 1 sodium-calcium exchange and inositol triphosphate receptor was down-regulated, and the expression of voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel α1C subunit, type 2 ryanodine receptor, sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium pump 2α and proteinphilin-2 was up-regulated in group S ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The mechanism by which sevoflurane improves right ventricular remodeling is related to regulating the expression of Ca 2+ transporter in cardiomyocytes of rats with pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Objective:To study the clinical value of serum microRNA-34a (miR-34a) and aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear transcript-like protein 1 (BMAL1) in cervical cancer and their relationship with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection.Methods:The clinical data of 76 patients with cervical cancer and 50 patients with benign cervical diseases in the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from January to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The expression levels of serum miR-34a and BMAL1 were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and HR-HPV infection was detected by flow fluorescent hybridization. The patients were followed up until December 2023, and the death and poor prognosis (death, tumor recurrence and progression and severe complications at 1-year of follow-up) were recorded. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the efficacy of miR-34a, BMAL1 and related indexes in evaluating the poor prognosis in patients with cervical cancer at 1-year. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors for death in patients with cervical cancer. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the relationship between miR-34a, BMAL1 expression and survival period, and the log-rank test was used for comparison.Results:The expression level of serum miR-34a in patients with cervical cancer was significantly lower than that in patients with benign cervical lesions (0.46 ± 0.08 vs. 0.67 ± 0.11), the expression level of serum BMAL1 was significantly higher than that in patients with benign cervical lesions (0.58 ± 0.07 vs. 0.41 ± 0.07), and there were statistical differences ( t= 12.40 and 13.34, P<0.01). The expression levels of serum miR-34a and BMAL1 in patients with cervical cancer were associated with tumor differentiation, myometrial invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis and International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or<0.01); they were not associated with age, menopause and pathological type, and there were no statistical differences ( P>0.05). In patients with cervical cancer, the expression level of miR-34a in patients with HR-HPV positive infection (60 cases) was significantly lower than that in patients with HR-HPV negative infection (16 cases): 0.41 ± 0.07 vs. 0.49 ± 0.08, the expression level of BMAL1 was significantly higher than that in patients with HR-HPV negative infection: 0.65 ± 0.09 vs. 0.53 ± 0.06, and there were statistical differences ( t = 3.68 and 4.24, P<0.05 or<0.01). In patients with benign cervical diseases, there were no statistical differences in the expression levels of miR-34a and BMAL1 between patients with HR-HPV positive infection (7 cases) and patients with HR-HPV negative infection (43 cases) ( P>0.05). ROC curve analysis result showed that miR-34a combined with BMAL1 had the highest sensitivity (90.4%), specificity (89.9%) and area under curve (0.911) in assessing the 1-year poor prognosis in patients with cervical cancer ( P<0.01), and the optimal cutoff values of miR-34a and BMAL1 expression level were ≤0.39 and ≥0.64. Multivariate Cox regression analysis result showed that poor differentiation, myometrial invasion depth ≥1/2, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, FIGO stage Ⅲ+Ⅳ, miR-34a expression level ≤0.46 and BMAL1 expression level ≥0.58 were independent risk factors for death in patients with cervical cancer ( OR = 1.857, 2.125, 2.337, 2.751, 2.457, 3.885 and 3.666; 95% CI 0.845 to 5.788, 0.726 to 5.924, 0.709 to 5.631, 0.693 to 5.727, 0.801 to 5.936, 1.244 to 6.423 and 1.031 to 5.612; P<0.01). Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis result showed that the median survival time in cervical cancer patients with miR-34a expression level ≤0.39 and BMAL1 expression level ≥0.64 (21 cases) was significantly lower than that in the other cervical cancer patients (miR-34a expression level>0.39 or BMAL1 expression level<0.64, 55 cases): (26.4 ± 4.2) months vs. (34.2 ± 5.6) months, log-rank χ2 = 17.12, P<0.05. Conclusions:The expression level of serum miR-34a in patients with cervical cancer is significantly reduced and the expression level of BMAL1 is significantly increased, which is related to the condition, prognosis and HR-HPV infection. It can be used as a marker for the assessment of the condition and prognosis of cervical cancer. The combined detection of the two can significantly improve the sensitivity and specificity in predicting poor prognosis of cervical cancer.

Objective:
To analyze physical fitness and health status and gender differences of middle school students among 5 minorities (Mongolian, Hui, Uyghur, Zhuang and Korean), and to provide the theoretical basis for the strategy formulation.
Methods:
The present data came from 3 waves of Chinese National Survey on Students Constitution and Health (2010, 2014, and 2019). According to National Standards for Students Physical Health (2014 Revision), excellent, and excellent good physical fitness and health status were defined. Cochran Armitage test was used to examine the trends of physical fitness and health status. Chi square test and Logistic regression were used to analyze the difference of physical fitness and health status by sex and survey year.
Results:
From 2010 to 2019, the excellent physical fitness and health status rate of Mongolian, Hui, Uyghur, Zhuang and Korean students increased from 1.8%, 0.7%, 0.3%, 0.5% and 1.3% to 4.3%, 2.8%, 1.2%, 1.3% and 3.5%, respectively. The excellent good physical fitness and health status rate of Mongolian, Hui, Uyghur and Zhuang students increased from 12.9%, 8.0%, 7.2 % and 8.4% to 24.7%, 20.1%, 12.6% and 19.8%( Z =6.15,6.71,4.12,3.06,5.26;11.88,13.42,6.70,11.08, P <0.05), respectively. In 2019, students aged 13 to 15 years showed higher proportion of excellent/excellent good physical fitness and health status than that of students aged 16 to 18. Boys were more likely to be in excellent/excellent good physical fitness and health status than girls from 2010 to 2019. The sex difference in excellent/excellent good physical fitness and health status narrowed during 2010 and 2019.
Conclusion
Physical fitness and health status of minority students improved while sex difference narrowed during last decade, but there is still a long way to reach the goal proposed by China. Targeted intervention should be proposed to promote physical fitness and health status in accordance with the developmental characteristics, especially for girls and students aged 16 to 18 years.
