ObjectiveTo analyze the impact of maternal postpartum depression (PPD) at 2 months postpartum on caregiving for infants aged2 to 24 months, and to provide a scientific basis for future maternal and infant healthcare services. MethodsBased on the Shanghai Maternal-Child Pairs Cohort, 1 060 mother-child pairs were selected from those fully participating in follow-up visits at 2, 6, 12, and 24 months postpartum. Pregnancy and childbirth-related information was collected using standardized questionnaire surveys and hospital obstetric and maternity records. The Edinburgh postpartum depression scale was used to assess the maternal postpartum depressive symptoms at 2 months postpartum. At 2, 6, 12, and 24 months postpartum, questionnaire survey was used to evaluate the maternal responsiveness in caregiving and the provision of early learning opportunities for infants. Scores for responsive caregiving and early learning opportunities at 2, 6, 12, and 24 months were grouped based on the 25th percentile (P25) of total scores. The mixed-effects model was used to analyze the longitudinal impact of maternal postpartum depression at 2 months on the caregiving of 2 to 24-month-old infants. ResultsThe longitudinal results from the mixed-effects model did not show an impact of maternal PPD on infant responsive caregiving within 12 months and early learning opportunities within24 months. However, cross-sectional analysis revealed that, compared to the non-PPD group, the risk of low responsive caregiving at 2 months in the PPD group was 93% higher (OR=1.931, 95%CI: 1.113‒3.364, P=0.019). The risks for low provision of early learning opportunities at2 months and 24 months increased by 59% (OR=1.589, 95%CI: 1.082‒2.324, P=0.017) and 60% (OR=1.598, 95%CI:1.120‒2.279, P=0.010), respectively. ConclusionMaternal postpartum depression increases the risk of low responsive caregiving at 2 months, but its long-term effects warrant further research.

Objective:
To investigate the current status of refractive errors and insufficient hyperopia reserve in preschool children aged 3-6 years in Hefei and to analyze influencing factors, so as to provide a scientific basis for formulating targeted myopia prevention policies and comprehensive interventions.
Methods:
In May 2022, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 897 preschool children from 8 kindergartens across four districts (Baohe, Yaohai, Shushan, and Economic and Technological Development Zone) in Hefei, and Children’s Visual Health related Behavior Assessment Scale was used to collect personal information and environmental factors. Pre and post cycloplegic refraction tests were conducted to assess insufficient hyperopic reserve and refractive development levels. Group comparisons were conducted using 2 test, t-test or analysis of variance. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to identify key factors influencing hyperopic reserve, axial length and spherical equivalent in preschool children.
Results:
The detection rates of refractive errors among preschool children were 6.8% for hyperopia, 1.6% for myopia, and 11.1% for astigmatism. Notably, the prevalence of myopia was significantly higher in boys (2.3%) than in girls (0.7%) ( χ 2=3.88, P <0.05). Additionally, 8.8% of the children exhibited insufficient hyperopic reserve. The results of multiple regression analysis showed that preschool children with high myopia in the father, high myopia in the mother, longer daily duration of near work, and longer daily electronic product use time had increased risks of axial growth ( β =0.12, 0.09, 0.15, 0.11), SE reduction ( β =-0.10, -0.07, -0.18, -0.13), and insufficient hyperopic reserve ( OR=1.87, 2.22, 1.40, 1.28) (P <0.05). While, preschool children with longer sleep time and daily outdoor activity duration had lower risks of axial growth ( β =-0.11, -0.10 ), SE reduction ( β =0.39, 0.51), and insufficient hyperopia reserve ( OR =0.54, 0.51) in preschool children ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
The rates of refractive errors and insufficient hyperopia reserve in preschool children in Hefei are relatively low, which are influenced by many factors. Parents, kindergartens and relevant departments should implement early vision monitoring and intervention for preschool children, and cultivate their scientific eye use habits.

ObjectiveUltra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS) was used to identify the metabolites of harmine in rats, in order to explore the differences in distribution of metabolites in rats after single dose(40 mg·kg-1) intragastric administration of harmine, as well to speculate the metabolic pathways. MethodSD rats were given a single dose of harmine by intragastric administration. Plasma, bile, urine and feces samples were collected after administration, and the samples were processed for determination by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS. The separation was performed on an ACQUITY UPLC™ HSS T3 columu(2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.8 μm) with acetonitrile(A)-0.1% formic acid aqueous solution(B) as mobile phase for gradient elution(0-2 min, 5%A; 2-9 min, 5%-35%A; 9-9.5 min, 35%-100%A; 9.5-12 min, 100%A; 12-12.5 min, 100%-5%A; 12.5-14 min, 5%A), the mass spectra were obtained in positive ion mode with electrospray ionization(ESI), the scanning range was m/z 50-1 200. The metabolites of harmine were identified based on the information of the obtained compounds and the literature data, and the metabolic pathways were hypothesized. ResultA total of 42 compounds(harmine and its metabolites) were identified in rats, including 27 in plasma, 17 in bile, 26 in urine and 13 in feces. The metabolic pathways involved in these 42 metabolites included monohydroxylation, dihydroxylation, demethylation, glucuronidation and sulfation. ConclusionHarmine can undergo phase Ⅰ and phase Ⅱ metabolic reactions in rats, and the prototype drug is metabolized rapidly in vivo, and the metabolites are mainly excreted by the kidneys, which can provide a reference basis for the pharmacodynamics and material basis of harmine.

ObjectiveTo investigate the general situation of defect of vertebral column among primary and middle school students in Minhang District of Shanghai and analyze the related factors, to provide a scientific basis for prevention and treatment. MethodsFrom September to October 2022, a total of 5 715 students were selected from two primary schools, two middle schools, and two high schools in Minhang District for physical examinations and screening for defect of vertebral column. ResultsTotally 219 students had defect of vertebral column, accounting for 3.83% of the sampled population. Anteroposterior spinal abnormalities were found in 4 individuals, accounting for 0.07%, and 218 students had scoliosis, accounting for 3.81%. The detection rate of defect of vertebral column was higher in girls (6.27%) than that in boys (1.51%), and higher in high school students (10.74%) than in primary school students (1.31%) and middle school students (10.97%). Students who are mildly underweight (5.95%) and who are moderately to severely underweight (7.46%) had a higher detection rate of defect of vertebral column than those with normal weight (4.54%), overweight (2.83%), and obesity (1.60%). The detection rate among students with poor vision (4.32%) was significantly higher than those with normal vision (2.24%), with all differences statistically significant (all P<0.05). ConclusionThe positive rate of defect of vertebral column in primary and middle school students in Minhang District, Shanghai is nearly 4%, with most cases being scoliosis. Factors such as being female, increasing age, being underweight, and poor vision are associated with a higher probability of detecting defect of vertebral column.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2024;45(5):727-731
Objective:
To study the impact of sleep characteristics on myopia, among lower primary school students in Shanghai, so as to provide foundation for the prevention of the onset and development of myopia.
Methods:
A total of 636 students from the first and second grades of two primary schools in Jiading District, Shanghai, were selected through cluster random sampling for questionnaire surveys and ophthalmological examinations in October 2022. The Childrens Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) was used to assess sleep quality at baseline. Ophthalmological examinations were conducted in October 2023(479), during which the students study time, screen time and outdoor activity time were monitored for twoweek, repeated twice. Generalized multivariable Logistic regression models and linear regression models were employed to examine the association between sleeprelated factors and myopia, as well as the strength of this association.
Results:
The baseline survey indicated a myopia prevalence of 18.58%, with 17.18% at followup. The average CSHQ total score was (51.58±4.44), and the average daily sleep duration was (9.43±4.84)h/d, with only 11.6% of participants meeting the recommended sleep sufficiency. Multivariable regression models indicated that insufficient sleep showed positive association with myopia (OR=1.64, 95%CI=1.05-2.56), while bedtime duration was significantly negative associated with myopia (OR=0.74, 95%CI=0.63-0.91, P<0.05), adjusting for confounding factors. Inconsistency in bed rest time was a risk factor for myopia (OR=1.07, P<0.05), and the consistency of bed rest time, and wakeup time showed statistically significant correlations with SE (P<0.05). There was also statistically significant correlations between consistency in sleep time, bed rest time, and wakeup time with AL (P<0.05).
Conclusions
Insufficient sleep and bedtime duration are correlated with the onset and progression of myopia. It is critical to ensure sufficient sleep duration and regular sleep habits for children to reduce the occurrence of myopia in the primary school students.

The construction of healthy schools is one of the key measures to implement the Outline of the Healthy China 2030 Plan. The establishment and implementation of the Guidelines for Healthy Primary and Secondary School Evaluation (Guidelines) is helpful for the large-scale promotion and standardization of healthy school construction by government departments in Shanghai and other major cities in China, thereby more students benefited from the Healthy China Initiative. The Guidelines integrate the efforts of multiple departments related to school health, based on internationally recognized content and strategies for health-promoting schools. They aim to foster students’ health development by combining the basic requirements for school health with priority projects for health promotion. Healthy school evaluation indicators and standardized requirements suitable for the current socio-economic development level of Shanghai have been developed, aligning with international concepts of health-promoting schools. They also reflect a high starting point and high level of investment and development in school health in Shanghai over the past decade. The Guidelines provide recommendations on the basic requirements, organization guarantees and management, social and culture environment, health promotion education, health services, and connection between school and communities, and families, of healthy school evaluation for primary and secondary schools. This paper aims to interpret the compilation process and main content of the Guidelines.

Objective:To explore the effect of timely induction intervention on postpartum urination in primipara during vaginal delivery, so as to provide the evidence for preventing the occurrence of postpartum urinary retention and relieving the pain of primipara.Methods:This study adopted a randomized controlled trial design, and selected 400 cases of primipara who were hospitalized for vaginal delivery in the Obstetric Department of Dalian Women and Children's Medical Group Sports New Town Hospital from June 2021 to September 2022 as the study objects by convenience sampling method. They were divided into the intervention group and the control group with 200 cases each by random number table method, and the control group received routine postpartum care. Instruct active urination within 6 hours after delivery. The intervention received timely induction urination intervention. The general condition and bladder urine volume of the women in the intervention group were evaluated at 2, 4, 6 h after delivery, respectively, and personalized guidance was implemented, including the frequency of massage of the bottom of the uterus, the control of water intake, the selection of methods and timing of inducing urination, etc., and routine postpartum care was given when the women completed their first urination and had no complaints of discomfort. The first urination time, first urination volume, first bladder irritation during the first urination and the incidence of postpartum urinary retention in different periods were compared between the two groups.Results:The patients in the control group were (29.60 ± 3.20) years old, while the patients in the intervention group were (28.81 ± 3.42) years old. The first urination time in the intervention group was (6.89 ± 2.18) h, which was shorter than that in the control group (9.11 ± 3.86) h, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-2.49, P<0.01). The first urination volume in the intervention group was (322.36 ± 120.15) ml, which was higher than that in the control group (262.93 ± 105.68) ml, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.39, P<0.05). The incidence of the first bladder irritation in the intervention group was 22.0%(44/200), which was lower than that in the control group 33.5%(67/200), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6.60, P<0.05). The incidence of postpartum urinary retention within 24 h in the intervention group was 5.5%(11/200), which was lower than that in the control group 11.5%(23/200), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.63, P<0.05). The incidence of postpartum urinary retention within 1 week in the intervention group was 9.5%(19/200), which was lower than that in the control group 16.5%(33/200), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.33, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postpartum urinary retention within 24 to 72 h between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Timely induction intervention can reduce the incidence of postpartum urinary retention, shorten the time of first urination, increase the volume of first urination and improve the comfort of first urination, which is worthy of clinical application.

BACKGROUND:Medium-and large-diameter polytetrafluoroethylene artificial blood vessels have been widely used in clinical practice.However,most of the products were imported from other countries.Small-diameter porous polytetrafluoroethylene vessels are easy to form thrombosis and intimal hyperplasia,resulting in an extremely low long-term patency rate,which is difficult to fulfill clinical requirements. OBJECTIVE:To review and summarize the research progress of polytetrafluoroethylene in the field of artificial blood vessels,which can provide a reference for the functional modification of small-diameter polytetrafluoroethylene artificial blood vessels and the improvement of their long-term patency rate. METHODS:The relevant articles published from October 2022 to March 2023 in CNKI,Web of Science,Wiley Online Library,SpringerLink,Science Direct and IOP Science databases were searched by the first author.The search terms in Chinese were"porous polytetrafluoroethylene,vascular graft,electrospinning,medical application,functional modification".The search terms in English were"ePTFE,porous polytetrafluoroethylene,vascular graft,electrospinning,medical application,functional modification".All the articles about the preparation and modification of polytetrafluoroethylene artificial blood vessels were retrieved. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The preparation and functional modification of porous polytetrafluoroethylene artificial blood vessels were still research hotspots and difficult problems.From the research progress in and outside China in recent years,the preparation of porous polytetrafluoroethylene artificial blood vessels mainly adopted the rapid thermal stretching method,but the preparation of polytetrafluoroethylene artificial blood vessels by electrospinning was a promising new method.By analyzing and summarizing different functional modification methods,it was found that the long-term patency rate of porous polytetrafluoroethylene artificial blood vessels had been improved.However,the functional modification of small-diameter polytetrafluoroethylene artificial blood vessels still needed further exploration and optimization.

ObjectiveTo analyze the status of and family-related factors associated with extracurricular screen time (ST) among the primary and middle school students in a district of Shanghai, and to provide a scientific basis for the development of targeted intervention measures. MethodsA total of 819 students and their parents from one primary school and one middle school were selected by stratified cluster sampling method from November to December 2022 in a district of Shanghai. A questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate the total extracurricular ST and entertainment ST during school days, weekends and summer and winter vacation, as well as the underlying family-related factors. Taking daily total extracurricular ST>2 h as excessive extracurricular ST and daily extracurricular entertainment ST>1 h as excessive extracurricular entertainment ST. ResultsAmong the 795 valid questionnaires, the proportions of excessive extracurricular ST during school day, weekend and summer and winter vacation were 10.9%, 42.1% and 51.1%, respectively, and the proportions of excessive extracurricular entertainment ST were 16.2%, 63.0% and 71.3%, respectively. The proportion of excessive extracurricular ST on weekend and summer and winter vacation was higher for middle school students than for primary school students, and the proportion of excessive extracurricular ST was higher for the students whose father’s educational level was high school and below than for those whose father’s educational level was junior college and above (both P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis after controlling confounding factors showed that the students with poor parent-child relationships (aOR=1.40‒1.96) and parental daily ST>2 h (aOR=1.83‒3.85) were more likely to have an excessive total extracurricular ST and entertainment ST. ConclusionThe proportion of excessive extracurricular ST for the primary and middle school students in Shanghai is relative high during weekend and summer and winter vacation, especially for entertainment purposes. Improving parent-child relationships and reducing parental excessive ST may be important intervention measures.
