Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(7):980-984
Objective:
To investigate the association between screen time (ST) during leisure time and anxiety-depression symptoms among middle school students, so as to provide a basis for formulating relevant intervention measures.
Methods:
From November to December 2023, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 2 542 students from junior and senior high school in Taiyuan City. A self designed questionnaire, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7), and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) were used to investigate ST and anxiety/depression symptoms among middle school students. The Logistic regression model was used to explore the association of ST with symptoms of anxiety and depression, as well as with anxiety and depression comorbiditles (CAD).
Results:
The detection rates of anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, and CAD were 13.69%, 15.77%, and 10.11%, respectively. The median ST was 2.00 h/d [interquartile range ( IQR =2.38) for weekly averages], with 0.33 h/d ( IQR =1.67) on work days and 5.00 h/d ( IQR=5.50) on rest days. Logistic regression analysis indicated that the total ST of mobile phones during rest days ( OR =1.07, 1.10, 1.11) and the averages ST of mobile phones over a week ( OR = 1.20 , 1.22, 1.29), as well as the total ST of all screen types during rest days ( OR =1.04, 1.04, 1.05) and the averages ST of all screen types over a week ( OR =1.08, 1.09, 1.21) were positively correlated with anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, and CAD (all P <0.01).
Conclusions
Among middle school students in Taiyuan City, screen time is positively correlated with symptoms of anxiety or depression and the comorbidity of anxiety and depression, especially smartphone screen time and weekend screen use. Therefore, measures should be implemented to reduce unnecessary screen time among middle school students, especially the use of mobile phones, in order to mitigate the occurrence of anxiety and depression.

Phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation(Phaco+lOL)has become the main treatment for cataracts due to small incision and fast recovery. Phacoemulsification can damage the conjunctiva, cornea and other ocular surface tissues, causing local inflammation, which in turn leads to eye dryness and discomfort after surgery. According to studies, patients who suffer from phacoemulsification most experience dry eye syndrome within 24 h, which gradually worsens and reaches its peak in the following 1 wk, seriously affecting their quality of life. The review aims to comprehensively investigate the effects of preoperative patient physical conditions and local ocular status, intraoperative maneuvers and postoperative treatments on postoperative dry eye, with the expectation of formulating scientific and effective preventive measures for potential dry eye patients after phacoemulsification, and providing a theoretical basis for postoperative dry eye treatment.

Objective:To investigate the impact of abnormal patterns of 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in the second trimester on the risk of large for gestational age (LGA) newborn deliveries.Methods:General clinical data and OGTT results of 66 290 pregnant women who received regular prenatal care and delivered in Guangdong Maternal and Child Health Hospital from December 24, 2016 to July 26, 2022 were collected. According to the results of OGTT, the pregnant women were divided into 8 groups: normal blood glucose group (normal fasting blood glucose, 1-hour and 2-hour after oral glucose, 54 518 cases), gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) 0 group (only abnormal fasting blood glucose, 1 430 cases), GDM 1 group (only abnormal blood glucose at 1-hour after oral glucose, 2 150 cases), GDM 2 group (only abnormal blood glucose at 2-hour after oral glucose, 3 736 cases), GDM 0+1 group (both fasting blood glucose and 1-hour after oral glucose were abnormal, 371 cases), GDM 0+2 group (both fasting blood glucose and 2-hour after oral glucose were abnormal, 280 cases), GDM 1+2 group (abnormal blood glucose at 1-hour and 2-hour after oral glucose, 2 981 cases) and GDM 0+1+2 group (abnormal fasting blood glucose, 1-hour and 2-hour after oral glucose, 824 cases). Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the effects of different abnormal OGTT patterns on LGA. In addition, the blood glucose measurements at the three time points of OGTT were combined and used as continuous variables in the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve to evaluate the predictive value of each blood glucose measurement mode for LGA and the area under the curve (AUC) was compared.Results:(1) Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risks of LGA were significantly increased in GDM 0 group ( OR=1.76, 95% CI: 1.50-2.08; P<0.001), GDM 0+1 group ( OR=2.29, 95% CI: 1.72-3.04; P<0.001), and GDM 0+1+2 group ( OR=1.98, 95% CI: 1.61-2.43; P<0.001). (2) ROC curve analysis showed that fasting blood glucose, 1-hour after oral glucose, 2-hour after oral glucose, fasting+1-hour after oral glucose, fasting+2-hour after oral glucose, 1-hour+2-hour after oral glucose, and fasting+1-hour+2-hour after oral glucose had certain predictive value for LGA (all P<0.001). The AUC of fasting blood glucose measurement was higher than that of 2-hour blood glucose measurement in predicting LGA, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the AUC between fasting blood glucose and other blood glucose measurement modes for predicting LGA (all P>0.05). Conclusions:In the abnormal OGTT patterns, pregnant women with abnormal fasting blood glucose, abnormal fasting+1-hour after oral glucose, and abnormal fasting+1-hour+2-hour after oral glucose have an increased risk of LGA. Fasting blood glucose measurement is of great significance for the prediction of LGA, and could be used as an optimal indicator to evaluate the risk of LGA in clinical practice.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of robotic surgery and open surgery in the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.Methods:PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang database were searched to compare the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma by robotic surgery and traditional open surgery. Literatures were searched from the establishment of the database to July 2023. Compare operation time, intraoperative blood transfusion rate, R 0 resection rate, lymph node metastasis rate, postoperative complication rate and hospital stays between the two groups. The combined odds ratio ( OR) and mean difference ( MD) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated using RevMan 5.4 software. Results:A total of 4 studies were included, including 267 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma. There were 177 males and 90 females, aged (58.8±5.7) years. A total of 267 patients were divided into open surgery group ( n=165) and robotic surgery group ( n=102) according to the surgical formula. The extract results show: operative time ( MD=-103.96, 95% CI: -216.90-8.98, P=0.070) and intraoperative blood transfusion rate ( OR=1.32, 95% CI: 0.43-4.07, P=0.630), R 0 resection rate ( OR=1.41, 95% CI: 0.71-2.81, P=0.330), lymph node metastasis rate ( OR=1.62, 95% CI: 0.46-5.63, P=0.450), postoperative complications ( OR=0.60, 95% CI: 0.28-1.31, P=0.200), and postoperative hospital stay ( MD=2.17, 95% CI: -11.56-15.90, P=0.760). Conclusion:In the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma, robotic surgery is as safe and feasible as open surgery. However, due to the limited number and quality of included studies, the above conclusions need to be verified by more high-quality studies.

Acute gallstone pancreatitis (AGP) is a kind of acute pancreatitis caused by gallstones. The etiology of AGP is complex, and the anatomic basis and initiating factors have a synergistic effect on its pathogenesis, which needs to be studied jointly. The way of the confluence of pancreaticobiliary ducts, dilated main pancreatic duct, the relatively narrow opening of duodenal papilla and small stones or microlithiasis may be involved in the pathogenesis of AGP, in which small stones are the most important. Etiological diagnosis and clinical treatment of AGP should be carried out simultaneously. The timely selection of treatment methods for different causes can alleviate the patient's condition to the greatest extent and reduce the cost of treatment. At present, it is difficult to unify the prediction indexes of AGP. Meanwhile, the pathogenesis and related prophylaxis and treatment also need to be studied. In this paper, the anatomic basis, initiation factors, pathogenesis and self-defense of AGP were analyzed to provide a new perspective for its treatment.
