Objective:
To explore the relationship between sleep quality and executive function among middle school students, so as to provide theoretical support for the promotion of adolescents physical and mental health development.
Methods:
From September to December 2023, 5 713 junior and senior high school students aged 13 to 18 were selected by stratified cluster random sampling method from Shanghai, Suzhou, Taiyuan, Wuyuan, Xingyi, and Urumqi. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to conduct sleep quality survey. And conduct executive function was tested on middle school students, including inhibitory function, refresh function and conversion function tests. Spearman correlation and linear regression were used to analyze the relationship between sleep quality and executive function of middle school students.
Results:
The total Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score of boys was [4.0(2.0,6.0)] and that of girls was [5.0(3.0,6.0)], and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-10.90, P < 0.01 ). The total PSQI score of boys was positively correlated with both 2-back reaction time and conversion function of executive function ( r =0.04, 0.04); the total PSQI score of girls was negatively correlated with 2-back reaction time ( r =-0.04) ( P <0.05). After controlling for variables such as mental health, physical activity and nutritional status,linear regression analyses showed that PSQI total score of middle school students was positively correlated with the inhibitory function and the conversion function response time [ B (95% CI )=1.28(0.21-2.34), 7.62(2.34-12.90), P <0.05]; the associations of total PSQI scores among middle school students with both 2-back and 1-back response time were not statistically significant [ B (95% CI )=-5.88(-16.14-4.37), 8.05( -3.39 -19.50), P >0.05].
Conclusion
Positive correlations are observed on sleep quality with inhibitory and conversion functions of executive function among middle school students.

Type 1 diabetes is characterized by an absolute deficiency of insulin. Exogenous insulin replacement therapy is a crucial treatment approach for type 1 diabetes. However, the non-physiological insulin administration can lead to iatrogenic hyperinsulinemia, exacerbate peripheral insulin resistance, and subsequently increase the risk of various complications. Emerging insulin infusion technologies, lifestyle interventions, and medications such as metformin are increasingly being utilized in type 1 diabetes management to lower plasma insulin levels and improve patient outcomes.

Objective To analyze the current situation and influencing factors of health-care seeking delay among pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Qingpu District of Shanghai from 2011 to 2022, and to provide a scientific basis for tuberculosis prevention and control. Methods The data of pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Qingpu District of Shanghai from 2011 to 2022 was collected through the China Tuberculosis Information Management System to describe the distribution and change trend of the delay in health-care seeking. Univariate analysiswas performed using the chi-square (χ²) test, and the time trend of rates was tested with the trend chi-square (trend χ²) test. Multivariate logistic regression model analyzed the influencing factors of the delay in health-care seeking. Results From 2011 to 2022, there were 3 488 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis in Qingpu District, with 1 438 patients experiencing health-care seeking delay. The median (quartile) number of days of delay was M (P25, P75) = 10 (2, 24) days, and the rate of health-care seeking delay was 41.23%. The annual rate of health-care seeking delay fluctuated between 33.88% and 50.45% from 2011 to 2022, with statistically significant differences between different years (χ²=38.355, P<0.001), and an upward trend in the health-care seeking delay rate was observed from 2020 to 2022 (χtrend²=13.290, P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared to male, those under 25 years old, with local household registration, and detected through health check-ups, females (OR=1.21, 95%CI:1.04-1.41), those aged 45 to <65 (OR=1.36, 95%CI:1.06-1.75), intra-city migrants (OR=1.35, 95%CI:1.09-1.68), inter-provincial/overseas migrants (OR=1.50, 95%CI:1.23-1.83), and patients who directly sought medical care (OR=3.52, 95%CI:2.27-5.47), transfer treatment (OR=2.07,95%CI:1.31-3.25), referral (OR=2.16, 95%CI:1.36-3.44), follow-up (OR=3.07, 95%CI:1.74-5.44) patients with pulmonary tuberculosis were more likely to delay health-care, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared to sputum-positive patients, those with sputum-negative tests (OR=0.76, 95%CI: 0.59-0.97) were less likely to experience delayed health-care, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions Health-care seeking delay of pulmonary tuberculosis patients is relatively common in Qingpu District of Shanghai. Corresponding intervention measures should be adopted for risk factors and key populations to further improve the health-care seeking delay.

BACKGROUNDSurgical resection is the most effective treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Currently several prognostic factors and models are used for outcome prediction. However, whether intratumoral changes are independent prognostic factors for RCC or not remains unclear. The aim of the study was to investigate the prognostic roles of intratumoral changes in surgical treated localized clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).
METHODSPatients who received partial or radical nephrectomy between 2004 and 2009 in our center were retrospectively reviewed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to assess gender, age, body mass index (BMI), intratumoral hemorrhage, tumor necrosis, cystic degeneration, sarcomatoid change, Ki-67 expression, Fuhrman grade, and T stage on recurrence-free survival (RFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS).
RESULTSA total of 378 patients were included in our study. In univariate analysis, age, BMI, intratumoral hemorrhage, tumor necrosis, sarcomatoid change, Ki-67 expression level, Fuhrman grade, and T stage were prognostic factors for RFS. Age, BMI, tumor necrosis, sarcomatoid change, Ki-67 expression level, Fuhrman grade, and T stage were prognostic factors effecting CSS. In multivariate analysis, age, BMI, tumor necrosis, sarcomatoid change, Ki-67, Fuhrman grade, and T stage were independent prognostic factors for both RFS and CSS.
CONCLUSIONIntratumoral changes such as tumor necrosis and sarcomatoid change are independent prognostic factors for ccRCC.
