Objective To explore the associations between risk factors for cardiovascular disease and breast cancer. Methods A total of 300 patients with breast cancer and 300 with benign breast diseases diagnosed by postoperative pathology were included in the Department of Breast Surgery, Huangpu Branch of the Ninth People’s Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2023 to June 2023. The main cardiovascular risk factors in patients between the two groups were compared. Stratification was performed according to menstrual status, and the main cardiovascular risk factors in patients with different menstrual status between the two groups were compared. The logistic regression correlation analysis was used to analyze the risk factors related to cardiovascular disease for breast cancer. Results There were statistically significant differences in clinical data and laboratory indicators between the two groups (P<0.01) . Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (OR=1.03, P=0.029), triglyceride (TG; OR=1.94, P=0.025), C-reactive protein (CRP; OR=2.73, P<0.001), D-dimer (OR=61.19, P<0.001), and homocysteine (Hcy; OR=2.10, P<0.001) were independently associated with breast cancer. The stratified analysis showed age, TG, CRP, D-dimer, and Hcy were independently associated with breast cancer in both premenopausal and postmenopausal patients (P<0.05). Conclusions Among risk factors for cardiovascular disease, advanced age, increased TG, CRP, D-dimer, and Hcy might increase breast cancer risk, which are helpful of screening high-risk individuals for breast cancer.

Objective:
To develop a method that can continuously monitor duration of students outdoor activities for a long time, so as to provide data support for the relationship between outdoor activity duration and students health.
Methods:
From April 28 to July 6, 2022, 1 168 students from a primary school in Shenzhen were selected. Fixed cameras were placed on the top of school classrooms, corridors and critical paths were used to identify student data and duration in the picture. And AI, cloud computing and other methods were used to measure students-non-classroom time instead of outdoor activity time in school.
Results:
The average length of time spend on outdoor activities in school of the 24 pilot classes were 67.6-113.0 min, and showed a downward trend by grade ( F =42.74, P <0.05). The duration of outdoor activities among students was negatively correlated with the detection rate of myopia and overweight( r =-0.74, -0.45, P <0.05).
Conclusion
The data on outdoor activity time calculated by AI image recognition is basically in line with the reality. Monitoring students outdoor activity time at school through AI image recognition is feasible and popularized.

Objective:
To evaluate the immunity and influencing factors of diphtheria among preschool children in Shenzhen,to provide reference for effective monitoring of diphtheria IgG antibody level in preschool children.
Methods:
Serum samples were collected from 296 preschool children aged 4-6 who were recruited in Shenzhen. The diphtheria antibody titer in serum was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, and the effect of different immumuzation schedule including types of vaccine and vaccination timing, on the geometric mean concentration (GMC) of diphtheria IgG antibody and antibody positive rate were analyzed.
Results:
The GMC of diphtheria IgG antibody was 0.71 IU/mL, and the positive conversion rate was 33.1%. There were significant differences in antibody GMC and antibody positive conversion rate of diphtheria in different age groups( F/χ 2=11.77, 27.45, P < 0.01 ). The GMC and antibody positive conversion rate showed significant differences by diphtheria antibodies, vaccine types and end dose vaccination intervals( F=49.53, 12.95,11.61, P <0.01). There were statistically significant differences in the positive conversion rate of diphtheria antibodies in children with different types of diphtheria antibodies, vaccine types of diphtheria antibodies, and diphtheria antibodies at the time interval of final vaccination (Fisher exact probability method, P <0.01).
Conclusion
The overall positive conversion rate of diphtheria antibody in preschool children in Shenzhen is high. Timely completion of full diphtheria vaccination can improve the antibody level and plays a better role in protecting preschool children.

Objective:
To understand the changes of children s height, weight, blood pressure and gender differences, to explore the relationship between overweight, obesity and childhood hypertension, and to provide a scientific basis for childhood hypertension prevention.
Methods:
Physical examination data during 2013 to 2018 of ten primary school students in Shenzhen were collected. Growth rate of height, weight and blood pressure by age and gender were calculated. The generalized estimating equation was used to analyze the association between overweight, obesity and hypertension.
Results:
Weight, body mass index (BMI) and systolic pressure of boys and girls increased with age ( t/Z =3.89-31.52, P <0.05). The height growth rate of girls was higher than that of boys at the age of 8-11, and reaches the peak of height growth at the age of 10, while boys were two years later than girls(boys:7.68 cm, gilrs:7.42 cm). Weight and blood pressure growth rates were similar. At the same time, the growth rate of height and blood pressure had a synchronous trend, and the peak of the growth rate of blood pressure was also at the peak stage of height growth. The OR value of obesity on childhood hypertension was 1.62(1.48-1.81), and the OR value of overweight on childhood hypertension was 2.01(1.75-2.30), both P <0.01.
Conclusion
There are gender differences in children s height, weight, and blood pressure, and the growth rate of height and blood pressure shows a synchronous trend. Overweight and obesity in children can increase the risk of high blood pressure and hypertension.

In addition, we put forward the contents and countermeasures for the modernization of the disease prevention and control system. The modernization of the disease prevention and control system should be built around governance modernization, talent modernization, equipment modernization, scientific research modernization, and modernization of the regulatory system. The countermeasures and suggestions need to reposition the disease prevention and control system, rationalize the management system and operating mechanism, strengthen the modernization of talents and equipment, strengthen scientific research on disease prevention and control, and further improve the disease prevention and control legal system.
6.Correlation of urine phthalate metabolite levels with blood pressure in first-grade children
Chinese Journal of School Health 2019;40(9):1356-1359
Objective:
To explore the correlation between blood pressure and urinary phthalandione, MMP, MEP, MnBP, MiBP, PAEs.
Methods:
Three schools were selected from Shenzhen, China for the present study. A total of 765 firstgrade students of Han ethnicity were recruited voluntarily from the selected schools during September 2016 to June 2017. They were divided into normal blood pressure (BP) group (lower than P90 group) and high BP group (BP≥P90). Linear and Logistic regression models were used to analyze the relationships between blood pressure and urine phthalate metabolite levels.
Results:
Urinary MMP and MnBP in students of high BP group were significantly higher than that of students in normal BP group(t=13.12, 3.97, P<0.05). Linear regression models showed that Z score increased when MMP and MnBP levels increased(P<0.05). Logistic regression model suggested that the risk of high BP increased with the increment of MMP level adjusting creatinine, sex, age and BMI(OR=1.47, P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the differences after adjusting many factors including family income and education level of parents(P>0.05).
Conclusion
Urinary phthalate metabolite levels are positively associated with blood pressure in first-grade children.
