Objective:
To explore the assocation of the family environment and depressive symptoms among primary and middle school students, so as to provide suggestions for further maximizing the utility of family environment in the growth of primary and secondary school students, as well as prevention and intervention of depressive symptoms among children and adolescents.
Methods:
From June to July 2024, through a multistage cluster random sampling method, 8 800 primary and middle school students aged 10 to 18 from 36 schools in 3 cities (Datong, Lvliang, Linfen) in Shanxi Province. A self designed questionnaire was used to conduct a family environment survey, including family socioeconomic conditions, family structure, family parenting behavior, family member health behavior, etc; and the depression symptoms of primary and secondary school students were investigated by Patient Health Questionnaire-9. The χ 2 test and binary Logistic regression to method were used to analyze the association of the family environment with depressive symptoms among primary and secondary school students, and to analyze gender and urban-rural heterogeneity in this association.
Results:
The detection rate of depressive symptoms among primary and middle school students was 46.7% ( n = 4 111 ). Among them, the detection rates of depressive symptoms for male and female students were 45.7% and 47.7% respectively, and the detection rates for rural and urban students were 48.0% and 44.9% respectively. The results of binary Logistic regression model showed that in the family environment, factors such as the father s education level (junior high school: OR =0.84), self assessed family socio economic status (average: OR =0.78, good: OR =0.80), parental support and understanding (yes: OR = 0.55 ), family atmosphere (harmonious: OR =0.66), living arrangement (living only with father or mother: OR =1.31, living with parents and grandparents: OR =1.19), and family rearing style (combining punishment and reward: OR =1.42, punishment only: OR =1.25) were related to depressive symptoms in primary and middle school students in Shanxi Province ( P <0.05). From the perspective of gender heterogeneity, the living arrangement (living only with father or mother: OR =1.67, others: OR =1.67) had a statistically significant association with depressive symptoms in male students ( P <0.05). From the perspective of urban rural heterogeneity, the living arrangement (living only with father or mother: OR =1.38) had a statistically significant association with depressive symptoms in rural primary and middle school students ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
The family environment has an important impact on depressive symptoms in primary and middle school students. Family functioning should be fully exerted to prevent depressive symptoms in primary and middle school students.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of flight fatigue among helicopter flying personnel and analyze its contributors in order to provide data for related interventions.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted among 404 helicopter flying personnel between October 8, 2021 and July 31, 2022. Data was collected using a self-designed questionnaire, involving the demography of these subjects, sleep-related factors, flight fatigue, perceived causes of fatigue and coping strategies. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), National Aeronautics and Space Administration Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) and Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFI-20) were used to assess sleep quality, mental workload, and levels of flight fatigue over the past month. The total scores of MFI-20 were compared across demographic groups, and correlations with PSQI and NASA-TLX scores were analyzed. Multiple linear regression was performed to identify the determinants of flight fatigue.Results:①Demography: among the 404 helicopter flying personnel, 92.8% (375/404) were pilots and 7.2% (29/404) navigators. As for years of service, 41.6% (168/404) served less than 5 years, while 58.4% (236/404) served more than 5 years. 37.9% (153/404) had a family history of insomnia. 18.8% (76/404) did not habitually nap, 68.9% (226/328) napped for ≤30 min, 31.1% (102/328) napped over 30 min, and 18.3% (74/404) had insomnia over the past month. As for helicopter flying personnel, 75.5% (305/404) reported experiencing fatigue, with 69.1% (279/404) attributing it to flight-related factors and 51.5% (208/404) using coffee as a countermeasure.②Scale scores: the total score of PSQI was [5 (3, 7)], while the highest daytime dysfunction score was [1(0, 2)]. The total score of NASA-TLX was [39.19 (26.57, 51.97)], and the effort score was the highest [10.31(5.07, 14.60)]. The total score of MFI-20 averaged (47.28±14.88), with the mental fatigue score being the highest [(10.03±4.42)]. ③Comparisons of MFI-20 total scores: flying personnel with ≤5 years of flying experience had higher MFI-20 total scores than those with >5 years, and those with a family history of insomnia had higher scores than those without ( t=3.35, 2.44, P=0.001, 0.015). Individuals with insomnia over the past month had higher scores than non-insomniacs ( t=3.33, P=0.001). Significant differences in MFI-20 scores were observed based on nap duration ( F=19.95, P<0.001). Non-nappers had higher scores than those napping for ≤30 min ( P=0.005). Flying personnel who napped for >30 min had higher scores than those did not ( P=0.043) or napped for ≤30 min ( P<0.001). ④Correlation analysis: the total score of MFI-20 was positively correlated with sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep disturbances, hypnotic medications, daytime dysfunction, and the total score of PSQI ( r=0.118-0.226, all P<0.05), but negatively with sleep duration ( r=-0.136, P=0.006). The total score of MFI-20 was positively correlated with mental demand, physical demand, and the total score of NASA-TLX ( r=0.119, 0.168, 0.184, P=0.017, 0.001, <0.001). ⑤Multiple linear regression analysis: the determinants of flight fatigue included aircraft types ( B=-4.956, 95% CI:-8.124--1.788), nap duration ( B=3.693, 95% CI: 1.267-6.119), sleep latency ( B=2.371, 95% CI: 0.229-4.513), sleep duration ( B=-7.383, 95% CI:-10.008--4.758), daytime dysfunction ( B=5.003, 95% CI: 2.967-7.039) and physical workload ( B=0.611, 95% CI: 0.324-0.898). Conclusions:Helicopter flying personnel are vulnerable to flight fatigue, which is strongly linked to sleep quality and mental workload. It is crucial to address flying personnel′s self-perceived fatigue, care about fatigue manifestations across aircraft types, and implement targeted interventions to improve sleep quality and reduce mental workload.

Objective:
To investigate factors associated with life satisfaction among adolescents who have been relocated for poverty alleviation,so as to provide scientific evidence to support adolescent physical and mental well being.
Methods:
A multi stage stratified random sampling was conducted from June to August 2023 across 24 relocation sites in 8 counties of 4 cities in Shanxi Province. A total of 631 adolescents aged 10-19 were surveyed regarding personal characteristics, family environment, health behaviors, mental health, and social capital. Univariate analysis of variance and binary Logistic regression were used to explore the influencing factors.
Results:
The life satisfaction rate of the relocated adolescents was 63.9%(403/631), and the average score of life satisfaction was (23.21±6.28). The Logistic regression analysis showed that, significant factors affecting life satisfaction of the relocated adolescents included age (17-19 years old: AOR= 0.54 , 95%CI =0.33-0.88), subjective family economic status (moderate: AOR=1.70, 95%CI =1.04-2.76; good: AOR=6.95, 95%CI =1.85-26.16), sleep quality (good: AOR=1.61, 95%CI =1.09-2.38), depression ( AOR=0.94, 95%CI =0.90-0.99), and social capital ( AOR=1.17, 95%CI =1.10-1.23)( P <0.05).
Conclusions
The satisfaction of 17-19 year old adolescents who have relocated for poverty alleviation is relatively low, while those with better family economic status, high sleep quality, low depression level and rich social capital showed high life satisfaction. Targeted interventions by families, communities, schools, and social institutions are recommended to improve adolescents quality of life.

BACKGROUND:Scaffold materials serve as platforms that provide space and structure,playing a crucial role in the regeneration of cartilage tissue.Scholars from around the world are exploring different approaches to fabricate more ideal scaffold materials. OBJECTIVE:To review the design principles and preparation methods of cartilage scaffolds,and to further explore the advantages and limitations of various preparation methods. METHODS:Literature searches were conducted on the databases of CNKI,WanFang Data,PubMed,and FMRS from 1998 to 2023.The search terms were"cartilage repair,cartilage tissue engineering,cartilage scaffold materials,preparation"in Chinese and English.A total of 57 articles were ultimately reviewed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The articular cartilage has a unique structure and limited self-repair capacity after injury.Even if self-repair occurs,the newly formed cartilage is typically fibrocartilage,which is far inferior to normal articular cartilage in terms of structure and mechanical properties.It is difficult to maintain normal function and often leads to degenerative changes.Currently,the design and fabrication of scaffold materials for cartilage repair need to consider the following aspects:biocompatibility and biodegradability,suitable pore structure and porosity,appropriate mechanical properties,and bioactivity.(2)Research on the preparation of cartilage scaffolds has made significant progress,continuously introducing new preparation methods and optimization strategies.These methods have their advantages and disadvantages,providing more possibilities for customized preparation and functional design of cartilage scaffolds according to specific requirements.
