Objective: To investigate the association between dietary behaviors and overweight and obesity among middle school students, so as to provide the evidence for developing dietary intervention strategies for them. Methods: From October to December 2023, a total of 7 063 middle school students from six counties (districts) in Ma'anshan City, Anhui Province were selected through stratified cluster random sampling method. Demographic information, physical activity, sleep, and dietary behaviors over the past year were collected through questionnaire surveys. Height and weight were measured to calculate body mass index (BMI), with overweight and obesity determined based on gender- and age-specific BMI cut-off points. The association between dietary behaviors and overweight and obesity was analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 7 063 questionnaires were allocated, and 7 045 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 99.75%. There were 3 925 males (55.71%) and 3 120 females (44.29%). A total of 2 326 students were overweight and obesity, with the prevalence of 33.02%. There were significant differences in the prevalence of overweight and obesity among middle school students with different genders, whether they were the only child or not, different intake frequency of sugar-sweetened beverages, and different intake frequency of beans and soy products (all P<0.05). After adjusting for factors such as gender, education stage, whether the only child, whether living on school, physical activity and sleep, multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the frequency of snack consumption (1-2 times/week, OR=0.803, 95%CI: 0.669-0.963; 3-6 times/week, OR=0.759, 95%CI: 0.623-0.926; daily, OR=0.758, 95%CI: 0.595-0.964), sugar-sweetened beverages consumption (1-2 times/week, OR=1.166, 95%CI: 1.012-1.343; daily, OR=1.891, 95%CI: 1.302-2.746) and beans and soy products consumption (1-2 times/week, OR=0.787, 95%CI: 0.628-0.987) were the influencing factors of overweight and obesity among middle school students. Conclusions The frequencies of snack, beans and soy products and sugar-sweetened beverage consumption are associated with overweight and obesity among middle school students. Targeted interventions should be strengthened to reduce the risk of overweight and obesity.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of geriatric hip fractures.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical characteristics of 2 054 elderly patients with hip fracture aged 60 years and over who were admitted to Beijing Hospital from January 2011 to December 2020.The epidemiological characteristics of geriatric hip fractures were analyzed from the aspects of age, gender, fracture type, length of stay, surgical method and surgical complications.Results:The total number of hip fractures patients admitted from 2011 to 2020 showed a general upward trend in quantity.Among them, there were 1 177 femoral neck fractures(57.3%, 1 177/2 054), and 877 intertrochanteric femoral fractures(42.7%, 877/2 054)with statistical differences in the distribution of fracture types between patients at different ages( χ2=61.727, P<0.001). A total of 1 839 patients chose surgical treatment, accounting for 89.5% of the total number of patients.Artificial femoral head arthroplasty was the most common operation mode for patients with femoral neck fractures(783 cases, 75.4%).534 patients with intertrochanteric femoral fractures(66.8%)were treated with closed reduction and femoral intramedullary nailing.There was a statistically significant difference in operation modes among different fracture types( χ2=1 480.800, P<0.001). The length of hospital stay in patients with femoral neck fracture was(14.2±8.3)days, which was significantly longer than in patients with femoral neck fracture(13.2±10.9)days( t=2.417, P=0.016). There was no significant difference in the time from admission to operation between the two groups[(5.7±3.5)days vs.(5.4±3.3)days]( t=1.954, P=0.051). Among all the comorbidities of hip fracture patients, the top 5 diseases were cardiovascular system diseases(2 001 cases, 97.4%), nervous system diseases(1 105 cases, 53.8%), endocrine system diseases(814 cases, 39.6%), skeletal and muscular system diseases(623 cases, 30.3%), digestive system diseases(472 cases, 23.0%).1 485 patients(72.3%)had 3 or more comorbidities. Conclusions:Hip fractures in the elderly have some epidemiological distribution characteristics in terms of age, gender, length of hospitalization, injury mechanism and comorbidities, which is conducive to further improve the prevention and treatment strategies for hip fractures and promote the rational allocation of medical resources.
