Objective: To understand the relationship between daily exercise load and physical fitness of primary school students, so as to provide relevant theoretical basis for the development of on campus physical education plans and the improvement of procedural physical health management for elementary school students. Methods: A total of 223 students from 6 classes in a primary school in Beijing were selected by a stratified random cluster sampling method from May to June 2023. The daily exercise load of the students was monitored by Polar Verity Sense heart rate armband. The duration of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and daily Training Impulse (TRIMP) value were calculated, and the related indexes of daily exercise load were analyzed. Chi square test and univariate Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the correlation between daily exercise load and physical fitness assessment levels, and multi factor ordinal Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of physical fitness assessment levels. Results: The average time spent in MVPA was (21.65±17.48) min. The TRIMP value was (361.47±124.81). The time spent in MVPA of primary school students in outdoor class, zero point sports, recess and after class PE were ( 8.86 ±8.56, 9.41±10.47, 1.97±3.12, 2.46±2.57) min, respectively. TRIMP values were (68.89±20.84, 72.83±30.27, 51.68±18.23, 19.99±5.78) in outdoor class, zero point sports, recess and after class PE, respectively. The results of univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in physical fitness levels among students with different genders, grades, and BMI ( χ 2=7.13, 19.04, 32.98, P <0.05). The duration of daily MVPA, along with TRIMP value during outdoor class, zero point sports, recess, and after PE class were all statistically significant with physical fitness levels ( OR =1.07, 1.05, 1.02, 1.03, 1.11, P <0.05). The results of multi factor ordinal Logistic regression analysis showed that the primary school grade (lower grade: OR =9.24, middle grade: OR =7.81), BMI (abnormal: OR =0.21), duration of daily MVPA in school ( OR =1.06), and TRIMP value during outdoor class ( OR =1.05) were statistically significant with physical fitness levels ( P <0.05). Conclusions There is a positive correlation between physical fitness and different grades, BMI, daily exercise load, and outdoor exercise load. Increasing daily exercise load can improve students physical health. It is suggested to tailor the school sports program to suit primary school students, increase both the intensity and duration of school daily sports, and promote procedural physical health management for elementary school students.

BACKGROUND:Cerebral ischemic stroke is one of the main fatal and disabling diseases in the clinic,but only a few patients benefit from vascular recanalization in time,so it is urgent to explore new and effective therapy.As one of the critical pathological changes of ischemic stroke,the glial scar formed mainly by astrocytes is one major cause that hinders axonal regeneration and neurological recovery at the late stage of stroke. OBJECTIVE:To elucidate the pathological process and crucial signal regulatory mechanism of astrocytes in the formation of glial scar after ischemic stroke,as well as the potential therapeutic targets,to provide a theoretical reference for intervening astrocytic scar formation against ischemic stroke effectively,and novel strategies for promoting post-stroke rehabilitation. METHODS:The relevant articles published in CNKI,PubMed and Web of Science databases from 2010 to 2022 were retrieved.The search terms were"Ischemic stroke,Brain ischemi*,Cerebral ischemi*,Astrocyt*,Astroglia*,Glial scar,Gliosis,Astrogliosis"in Chinese and English.Finally,78 articles were included after screening and summarized. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Astrocytes play an important role in the maintenance of central nervous system homeostasis.After ischemic stroke,astrocytes change from a resting state to an active state.According to the different severities of cerebral ischemic injury,astrocyte activation changes dynamically from swelling and proliferation to glial scar formation.(2)Mature astrocytes are stimulated to restart the cell cycle,then proliferate and migrate to lesions,which is the main source of the glial scar.Neural stem cells in the subventricular zone,neuron-glial antigen 2 precursor cells and ependymal precursor cells in the brain parenchyma can also differentiate into astrocytes.Endothelin-1,aquaporin 4,ciliary neurotrophic factor and connexins are involved in this process.In addition,chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan,as the main component of the extracellular matrix,forms the dense glial scar barrier with proliferated astrocytes,which hinders the polarization and extension of axons.(3)Activation or inhibition of crucial signal molecules involved in astrocyte activation,proliferation,migration and pro-inflammation functions regulate the glial scar formation.Transforming growth factor beta 1/Smad and Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 are classical pathways related to astrogliosis,while receptor-interacting protein 1 kinase and glycogen synthase kinase 3β are significant molecules regulating the inflammatory response.However,there are relatively few studies on Smad ubiquitination regulatory factor 2 and Interleukin-17 and their downstream signaling pathways in glial scar formation,which are worthy of further exploration.(4)Drugs targeting astrogliosis-related signaling pathways,cell proliferation regulatory proteins and inflammatory factors effectively inhibit the formation of glial scar after cerebral ischemic stroke.Among them,the role of commonly used clinical drugs such as melatonin and valproic acid in regulating glial scar formation has been verified,which makes it possible to use drugs that inhibit glial scar formation to promote the recovery of neurological function in patients with stroke.(5)Considering the protective effects of glial scar in the acute phase,how to choose the appropriate intervention chance of drugs to maintain the protective effect of the glial scar while promoting nerve regeneration and repair in the local microenvironment is the direction of future efforts.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of DNA image cytometry ploidy analysis (DNA-ICM) in the pathological diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. The clinical data of 101 patients with pleural effusion from October to December 2021 in Shanxi Bethune Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Liquid-based cytology (LBC) and DNA-ICM were performed on pleural effusion specimens. The sensitivity and specificity of the two methods were compared with the clinical diagnosis, imaging, biopsy, and follow-up results of the patients.Results:Among the pleural effusions of 101 patients, 39 were malignant pleural effusions and 62 were benign pleural effusions. The sensitivity of LBC and DNA-ICM in diagnosing malignant tumor cells in pleural effusions was 74.7% and 94.9%, respectively, and the specificity was 98.4% and 83.9%, respectively; the combination of the two had an increased diagnostic positivity rate compared with that of LBC alone [36.6% (37/101) vs. 28.7% (29/101)]. Seven cases with positive DNA-ICM but negative LBC result were followed up, and 1 case was diagnosed as small cell lung cancer. Conclusions:DNA-ICM can effectively improve the positive cytology detection rate of pleural effusion, and the combined detection of DNA-ICM and LBC can reduce the underdiagnosis rate of cytology, which is of great clinical value in the pathological diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion.

With the transformation of the biopsychosocial medical model, psychological problems and related interventions for breast cancer patients have received more and more attention. Patients often have various psychological problems, in diagnosis, treatment, and even in the state of disease-free survival, such as anxiety and depression, which not only seriously reduces the quality of life, but also affects the follow-up treatment and increases the risk of recurrence and metastasis. Therefore, physicians should perform routine psychological screening and appropriate intervention for patients. In recent years, psychological intervention has gradually become an important part of comprehensive breast cancer treatment, in which cognitive behavior therapy can alleviate patients′ anxiety and sleep disorders, mindfulness therapy can treat patients′ anxiety, depression and fear of cancer recurrence, and psychoeducational support is mainly used to address patients′ mood disorders and sexual dysfunction. Improving patients′ compliance with treatment and quality of life is the main goal of psychological intervention for breast cancer patients.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of overweight and obesity among first-year junior high school students in Beijing and to analyze their influencing factors.Methods:A questionnaire survey and physical examinations were conducted among first-year junior high school students from 9 schools across 6 districts in Beijing selected by multi-stage random cluster sampling method from September 2017 to December 2018. The questionnaire included demographic and family information, maternal pregnancy and childbirth conditions, dietary behavior, and physical activity. Height and weight were measured by trained investigators. The overweight and obesity were classified according to the Chinese School-age Children and Adolescents Overweight and Obesity Screening BMI Classification Standards (WGOC standards). The influencing factors were analyzed with univariate and multivariate logistic regressions. Results:A total of 1 467 questionnaires were returned and 1 411 were valid with an effective rate of 96.2%. Among the 1 411 respondents, there were 784 boys (55.6%) and 627 girls (44.4%), with an average age of (12.36±0.52) years. The overweight rates for boys and girls were 23.6% (185/784) and 13.7% (86/627), respectively, while the obesity rates were 24.0% (188/784) and 14.4% (90/627), respectively. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression revealed that female gender, 13-year-old age group, and preterm birth were negatively correlated with overweight and obesity ( OR=0.428, 0.722, 0.531; P<0.05). Maternal gestational hypertension, daily egg consumption, and weekly screen time≥7 hours were positively correlated with overweight and obesity ( OR=1.879, 1.574 and 2.088, 1.251; P<0.05). Conclusions:The prevalence of overweight and obesity among first-year junior high school students in Beijing is relatively high, which are positively or negatively associated with gender, age, preterm birth, maternal gestational hypertension, daily egg consumption and weekly screen time.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between tumor size, tumor location, and prognosis in patients with early-stage endometrial cancer (EC) receiving adjuvant radiotherapy. Methods: Data of patients who had been treated for stage I–II EC from March 1999 to September 2017 in 13 tertiary hospitals in China was screened. Cox regression analysis was performed to investigate associations between tumor size, tumor location, and other clinical or pathological factors with cancer-specific survival (CSS) and distant metastasis failurefree survival (DMFS). The relationship between tumor size as a continuous variable and prognosis was demonstrated by restricted cubic splines. Prognostic models were constructed as nomograms and evaluated by Harrell’s C-index, calibration curves and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results: The study cohort comprised 805 patients with a median follow-up of 61 months and a median tumor size of 3.0 cm (range 0.2–15.0 cm). Lower uterine segment involvement (LUSI) was found in 243 patients (30.2%). Tumor size and LUSI were identified to be independent prognostic factors for CSS. Further, tumor size was an independent predictor of DMFS. A broadly positive relationship between poor survival and tumor size as a continuous variable was visualized in terms of hazard ratios. Nomograms constructed and evaluated for CSS and DMFS had satisfactory calibration curves and C-indexes of 0.847 and 0.716, respectively. The area under the ROC curves for 3- and 5-year ROC ranged from 0.718 to 0.890. Conclusion Tumor size and LUSI are independent prognostic factors in early-stage EC patients who have received radiotherapy. Integrating these variables into prognostic models would improve predictive ability.
