Objective:
To analyze the association of strength quality of junior high school students with comorbid depressive and anxiety (CDA) and its subtypes, so as to provide reference for mental health improvement among junior high students.
Methods:
A convenient sampling method was used to select 10 007 junior high students aged 13-16 from four cities (Nanchang, Ganzhou, Jiujiang, Shangrao) in Jiangxi Province during September to November 2023. A questionnaire survey and physical fitness tests were employed to collect basic information and assess students depressive and anxiety status, as well as strength quality. The χ 2 test was used to compare the distribution differences of CDA and its subtypes among different demographic characteristics, sleep, physical activity, and overweight/obesity conditions. Logistic regression models were applied to infer the association strength between strength quality and CDA and its subtypes.
Results:
The overall detection rate of CDA among junior high students was 11.04%. Among the CDA subtypes, the detection rates for mild depression-mild anxiety type, anxiety dominant type, depressiondominant type, and severe depression-severe anxiety type were 3.67%, 3.35%, 0.39% and 3.64%, respectively. Compared to the grip strength and standing long jump scores in the > P 75 group, the risk of CDA occurrence increased in other groups (grip strength: P 25 - P 75 , OR =1.20; < P 25 , OR =1.28; standing long jump: P 25 - P 75 , OR =1.31; < P 25 , OR =1.51; P <0.05). In stratified analysis of different CDA subtypes, compared to the grip strength > P 75 group, the risks for mild depression-mild anxiety type increased in the P 25 - P 75 and < P 25 groups ( OR=1.32, 1.44, P <0.05). Compared to the standing long jump > P 75 group, the risks for anxiety dominant type and severe depression-severe anxiety type increased in other groups (anxiety dominant type: P 25 - P 75 , OR =1.32; severe depression-severe anxiety type: < P 25 , OR =1.87; P < 0.05 ).
Conclusions
Lower levels of grip strength and standing long jump performance among junior high students are positively correlated with CDA and its subtypes. Lower levels of lower limb strength may be an important predictor of CDA in severe depression and anxiety.
2.An investigation of bacillary dysentery outbreaks in three schools in Ankang
Chinese Journal of School Health 2021;42(6):922-924
Objective:
To investigate risk factors and epidemiological characteristics of bacillary dysentery outbreaks in three schools, and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of the epidemic in the future.
Methods:
Case definition was established. All suspected, possible and confirmed cases of all students and faculty members from 3 schools (A, B, C) were selected for epidemiological investigation. Control group was used for case-control analysis, and relevant samples were collected for laboratory testing.
Results:
A total of 132 cases were found in 3 schools, all of which were from students, with the incidence rate of 17.74%. The morbidity in kindergarten A was 20.00%, in center primary school B it was 21.74%, and in junior middle school C it was 11.61%. Cohort studies and casecontrol studies suggested that schools are exposed places and that washing hands with raw water in schools was possible risk factor [OR(95%CI) =4.50(1.01-20.11)]. Nine stool samples were tested in laboratory, among which 8 were positive for Shigella(88.99%), and Shigella was detected in the end nodes of school s pipeline network, the water samples from canteen bucket, and the floor drains of sewer pipe.
Conclusion
The bacillary dysentery outbreaks in 3 schools was caused by Shigella, which may be due to fecal contamination of domestic water in 3 schools before the start of the school year. It is suggested to strengthen the management of centralized water supply and construction in rural areas, intensify the supervision at all levels, and sanitation and disinfection before school opens at all levels.

Objective:To analyze the complications and outcomes during the hospitalization of extremely premature infants (EPI) and extremely low birth weight infants (ELBWI).Methods:Clinical data of 168 cases of EPI and ELBWI admitted to 4 hospitals of grade three in Shaanxi Province between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.The information of general data, prenatal care, complications and outcomes were summarized.Outcomes of different groups were compared according to birth weight and gestational age.Results:A total of 168 cases of EPI and ELBWI were collected.The rate of delivery in tertiary hospitals was 86.9% (146/165 cases), 86 patients (57.7%) received prenatal Dexamethasone.The mean gestational age was (27.9±1.7) weeks, and the mean birth weight was (951.6±148.9) g. The highest rates of pregnancy complications included gestational hypertension (44/149 cases, 29.5%), premature rupture of membranes (43/149 cases, 28.9%) and gestational diabetes (16/149 cases, 10.7%). The first three neonatal complications were neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (16/168 cases, 95.2%), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (73/110 cases, 66.4%) and retinopathy of prematurity (65/110 cases, 59.1%). The survival rate of EP and ELBWI in 168 cases was 61.9% (104/168 cases), the abandonment rate was 27.4% (46/168 cases), and the mortality in hospital was 10.7% (18/168 cases). According to birth weight and gestational age, there were no statistically significant differences in survival, abandonment and hospital mortality among different birth weight groups( χ2=4.361, 5.104, 1.630, all P>0.05), while there were statistically significant differences in survival, abandonment and hospital mortality among different gestational age groups( χ2=21.650, 8.164, 13.490, all P<0.05). Conclusions:There are many complications of EPI and ELBWI and the outcomes are closely related to the gestational age of birth.Improving the perinatal management level and the professional diagnosis and treatment level of neonatology are helpful to improve the survival rate and prognosis.

Objective:
To identify the function of 91-112 amino acids (aa) fragment, the interaction domain of head and stalk of Newcastle disease virus(NDV) HN glycoprotein, and clarify the role of the fragment in promoting cell specific membrane fusion.
Methods:
The specific gene sequences were identified by aligning 91-112 amino acids of NDV HN protein with amino acids of MeV H, RSV G, hPIV3 HN protein. The fragment deletion, fragment substitution and intermolecular homologous recombination method were combined to construct the deletion mutant, De(HN), and three chimeras, Ch(MeV), Ch(RSV), Ch(hPIV3). Cationic transfection reagent was used to transfect the plasmids into baby hamster kidney cells (BHK-21), in which vaccinia virus-T7 RNA polymerase expression system was expressed. Indirect immunofluorescence assay (IIFA) and flow cytometry (FCM) were executed to analyze the cell surface expression level. Cell fusion promotion activity, receptor recognition activity and neuraminidase activity of each mutant were also detected.
Results:
Cell surface expression efficiency of De(HN) and Ch(MeV), Ch(RSV), Ch(hPIV3) proteins were 9.04%, 82.20%, 70.16%, 75.65% of that of wild-type (wt) HN. Fusion promotion activity of De(HN), Ch(MeV), Ch(RSV), Ch(hPIV3) were 3.83%, 24.76%, 29.42%, 57.84% of that of wt HN. The fusion promotion activity of De(HN) almost disappeared and syncytium couldn’t be found under the microscope. Hemadsorption activity was 13.48%, 36.25%, 34.93%, 65.22%, respectively (

Objective To compare the differences between the schizophrenics with negative and positive symptoms on prefrontal lobe and thalamus by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( 1 H-MRS). Methods 58 negative subtype and 51 positive subtype schizophrenics were examined at prefrontal lobe and thalamus by multivoxel 1H-MRS before antipsychotic treatment The N-acetylaspartate (NAA), choline-containing compounds ( Cho), and creatine compounds (Cr) were measured and the ratios of NAA/Cr, Cho/Cr were determined. Results On right thalamus,the NAA/Cr ratio in negative subtype patients ( 1.40 ± 0.29 ) demonstrated lower than that in positive subtype ( 1.62 ± 0.33 ), the same phenomenon were appeared on male, female, non-first-episode, with-medicine and without-medicine patients (P < 0.05 or 0.01 ). The Cho/Cr ratio on right thalamus in negative subtype of female,non-first-episode,without-medicine schizophrenics were lower than those in positive subtype (P < 0.05 ).On left prefrontal lobe,left thalamus and right thalamus, the NAA/Cr ratios both in negative subtype and positive subtype schizophrenics were significantly negatively related with age of onset(P<0. 05 or 0.01 ). In negative subtype schizophrenics,the Cho/Cr ratio on right thalamus was positively related with age of onset ( r = 0. 25, P <0.05 ). In negative subtype schizophrenics of non-first-episode, without-medicine, the correlation was negative between the NAA/Cr ratio and the course of disease( r= -0.48, -0.46, P<0.05 ) ,and was positive between Cho/Cr ratio and the course of disease on right thalamus( r= 0.58,0.56, P< 0.01 ). Conlusion Compared with positive subtype schizophrenics,negative subtype schizophrenics have greater impairments on 1 H-MRS on right thalamus. The course of disease has greater effects on 1 H-MRS in negative subtype schizophrenics.
