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.

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a complication in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The Chinese Children's Cancer Group-ALL-2015 protocol was carried out in China, and epidemiology, clinical characteristics, and risk factors associated with VTE were analyzed. We collected data on VTE in a multi-institutional clinical study of 7640 patients with ALL diagnosed in 20 hospitals from January 2015 to December 2019. First, VTE occurred in 159 (2.08%) patients, including 90 (56.6%) during induction therapy and 108 (67.92%) in the upper extremities. T-ALL had a 1.74-fold increased risk of VTE (95% CI 1.08-2.8, P = 0.022). Septicemia, as an adverse event of ALL treatment, can significantly promote the occurrence of VTE (P < 0.001). Catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) accounted for 75.47% (n = 120); and, symptomatic VTE, 58.49% (n = 93), which was more common in patients aged 12-18 years (P = 0.023), non-CRT patients (P < 0.001), or patients with cerebral thrombosis (P < 0.001). Of the patients with VTE treated with anticoagulation therapy (n = 147), 4.08% (n = 6) had bleeding. The VTE recurrence rate was 5.03% (n = 8). Patients with VTE treated by non-ultrasound-guided venous cannulation (P = 0.02), with residual thrombus (P = 0.006), or with short anticoagulation period (P = 0.026) had high recurrence rates. Thus, preventing repeated venous puncture and appropriately prolonged anticoagulation time can reduce the risk of VTE recurrence.

Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of children with Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and to summarize the mid-term efficacy of China Net Childhood Lymphoma-mature B-cell lymphoma 2017 (CNCL-B-NHL-2017) regimen. Methods: Clinical features of 436 BL patients who were ≤18 years old and treated with the CNCL-B-NHL-2017 regimen from May 2017 to April 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Clinical characteristics of patients at disease onset were analyzed and the therapeutic effects of patients with different clinical stages and risk groups were compared. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox regression was used to identify the prognostic factors. Results: Among 436 patients, there were 368 (84.4%) males and 68 (15.6%) females, the age of disease onset was 6.0 (4.0, 9.0) years old. According to the St. Jude staging system, there were 4 patients (0.9%) with stage Ⅰ, 30 patients (6.9%) with stage Ⅱ, 217 patients (49.8%) with stage Ⅲ, and 185 patients (42.4%) with stage Ⅳ. All patients were stratified into following risk groups: group A (n=1, 0.2%), group B1 (n=46, 10.6%), group B2 (n=19, 4.4%), group C1 (n=285, 65.4%), group C2 (n=85, 19.5%). Sixty-three patients (14.4%) were treated with chemotherapy only and 373 patients (85.6%) were treated with chemotherapy combined with rituximab. Twenty-one patients (4.8%) suffered from progressive disease, 3 patients (0.7%) relapsed, and 13 patients (3.0%) died of treatment-related complications. The follow-up time of all patients was 24.0 (13.0, 35.0) months, the 2-year event free survival (EFS) rate of all patients was (90.9±1.4) %. The 2-year EFS rates of group A, B1, B2, C1 and C2 were 100.0%, 100.0%, (94.7±5.1) %, (90.7±1.7) % and (85.9±4.0) %, respectively. The 2-year EFS rates was higher in group A, B1, and B2 than those in group C1 (χ2=4.16, P=0.041) and group C2 (χ2=7.21, P=0.007). The 2-year EFS rates of the patients treated with chemotherapy alone and those treated with chemotherapy combined with rituximab were (79.3±5.1)% and (92.9±1.4)% (χ2=14.23, P<0.001) respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that stage Ⅳ (including leukemia stage), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)>4-fold normal value, and with residual tumor in the mid-term evaluation were risk factors for poor prognosis (HR=1.38,1.23,8.52,95%CI 1.05-1.82,1.05-1.43,3.96-18.30). Conclusions: The CNCL-B-NHL-2017 regimen show significant effect in the treatment of pediatric BL. The combination of rituximab improve the efficacy further.

BACKGROUND:
Delivery room resuscitation assists preterm infants, especially extremely preterm infants (EPI) and extremely low birth weight infants (ELBWI), in breathing support, while it potentially exerts a negative impact on the lungs and outcomes of preterm infants. This study aimed to assess delivery room resuscitation and discharge outcomes of EPI and ELBWI in China.
METHODS:
The clinical data of EPI (gestational age [GA] <28 weeks) and ELBWI (birth weight [BW] <1000 g), admitted within 72 h of birth in 33 neonatal intensive care units from five provinces and cities in North China between 2017 and 2018, were analyzed. The primary outcomes were delivery room resuscitation and risk factors for delivery room intubation (DRI). The secondary outcomes were survival rates, incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), and risk factors for BPD.
RESULTS:
A cohort of 952 preterm infants were enrolled. The incidence of DRI, chest compressions, and administration of epinephrine was 55.9% (532/952), 12.5% (119/952), and 7.0% (67/952), respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that the risk factors for DRI were GA <28 weeks (odds ratio [OR], 3.147; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.082-4.755), BW <1000 g (OR, 2.240; 95% CI, 1.606-3.125), and antepartum infection (OR, 1.429; 95% CI, 1.044-1.956). The survival rate was 65.9% (627/952) and was dependent on GA. The rate of BPD was 29.3% (181/627). Multivariate analysis showed that the risk factors for BPD were male (OR, 1.603; 95% CI, 1.061-2.424), DRI (OR, 2.094; 95% CI, 1.328-3.303), respiratory distress syndrome exposed to ≥2 doses of pulmonary surfactants (PS; OR, 2.700; 95% CI, 1.679-4.343), and mechanical ventilation ≥7 days (OR, 4.358; 95% CI, 2.777-6.837). However, a larger BW (OR, 0.998; 95% CI, 0.996-0.999), antenatal steroid (OR, 0.577; 95% CI, 0.379-0.880), and PS use in the delivery room (OR, 0.273; 95% CI, 0.160-0.467) were preventive factors for BPD (all P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
Improving delivery room resuscitation and management of respiratory complications are imperative during early management of the health of EPI and ELBWI.

Objective:
To learn the epidemiological characteristics of infectious disease related public health emergencies in Zhejiang Province from 2010 to 2018 for the prevention and control.
Methods:
The surveillance data was extracted from National Public Health Emergency Management Information System. Descriptive epidemiology method was used to analyze main diseases as well as distribution characteristics of time and places.
Results:
A total of 445 events were reported, which caused 14362 cases and 34 deaths, with a attack rate of 0.69% and mortality rate of 0.24%. There were 298 events with less than 30 cases, accounting for 66.97%. The event classification was dominated by general events ( 242 events, 54.38% ) and ungraded events ( 201 events, 45.17% ). The main diseases were chickenpox ( 134 events, 30.11% ), hand foot mouth disease ( 59 events, 13.26% ) and other infectious diarrhea ( 51 events, 11.46% ). The incidence peaked from April to June ( 129 events, 28.99% ) and from November to December ( 131 events, 29.44% ). Ningbo ranked the top in the number of reported events ( 141 events, 31.69% ). Most events ( 322 events, 72.36% ) occurred in schools.
Conclusions
The infectious disease related public health emergencies in Zhejiang Province from 2010 to 2018 were mainly caused by chickenpox, hand-foot-mouth disease and other infectious diarrhea. The two peaks of the emergencies occurred from April to June and from November to December. Ningbo was the main area reporting infectious diseases, and schools were the main places.

【Objective】 To find out the possible marker for early warning or therapeutic target of severe dengue disease ,we studied B cell responses during natural dengue virus(DENV)infection and their association with disease severity.【Methods】Sixty-two cases and their blood samples were collected from the patients hospitalized during September to December in 2014 and three groups were designated as mild dengue(DF,n=33),severe dengue(SD,n=29)and control group(Control ,n=6). Multicolor flow cytometrywas used to analyze the dynamic changes of B cells and plasmablasts in the peripheral blood of patients during the acute phase and the critical phase. The plasmablasts in a succession of samplesfrom the same infected patients (including 3 mild and 3 severe cases) were further analyzed. We also observed the changes of B cells and their subsets ,including naive B cells ,memory B cells and plasmablasts,during primary and secondary infections. 【Results】 The expansion of B cells in the severe group was significantly higher than that in the mild group(P=0.013),especially on day 5 and day 6 after the symptom onset(P = 0.017 and 0.002,respectively). Compared with those in the control group,the plasmablasts in the mild and severe groups showed significant proliferation(P=0.011 and 0.032,respectively),but no statistical difference was observed between these two groups. The analysis of the serial blood samples showed that the plasmablasts,in mild cases,peaked on day 7 and 8 and returned to baseline on day 10,whereas in the severe group,peaked on day 7 to 9,and still existed at a certain rate after day 10. In mild dengue group,more proliferative B cells,less naive B cells and memory B cells were found in secondary infection than in primary infection(P = 0.028,0.010 and 0.037,respectively),but plasmablasts revealed no difference. In severe dengue group, only naïve B cells significantly decreased in secondary infection (P = 0.018). 【Conclusion】 B cell responses between mild and severe dengue after DENV- 1 infection present different trends. The significant proliferation of B cells in the early stage of the disease and the persistent existence of plasmablasts may be related to the severity of the dengue disease.

Objective:To explore the psychological experience of front-line nurses combating the COVID-19 epidemic and provide suggestions and evidence for clinical interventions.Methods:From January 25th to 27th, 2020, a semi-structured interview was conducted using phenomenological research methods on 10 front-line nurses combating COVID-19 from a Class Ⅲ Grade A hospital, and Giorgi phenomenological analysis was used to analyze the data.Results:The psychological experience of clinical front-line nurses in this study could boil down to three themes: negative psychological experience (fear, worry, and fatigue) , insufficient ability to cope with public health emergencies (insufficient awareness of disease, and insufficient emergency rescue nursing skills) , and rational understanding of the fight against the epidemic (a sense of mission and confidence) .Conclusions:Clinical front-line nurses have different levels of negative psychological experience and lack the ability to respond to public health emergencies. Hospitals should strengthen psychological assistance and humane care for clinical front-line nurses, promote training for emergency disaster rescue nursing, improve hospital emergency management capabilities, and ensure efficient rescue work.

OBJECTIVE:
This study is aimed to report the development, the reliability and validity of the Chinese Children Physical Activity Questionnaire (CCPAQ) which was designed for the assessment of physical activity pattern in young population in China.
METHODS:
The CCPAQ was administered for two times in 119 children (mean age 13.1 ± 2.4 years; boys 47%) to examine reliability by using intraclass correlation coefficients. Validity was determined in 106 participants by agreement with the CCPAQ measures and the objective method, the ActiGraph accelerometer. Data on physical activity pattern including time spent on different intensities and total physical activity, sedentary behavior as well as physical activity energy expenditure were used to assess the validity with Spearman's correlation coefficient and the Bland-Altman plots.
RESULTS:
The reliability coefficient of the CCPAQ ranged from 0.63-0.93 (Intra-class correlation coefficient). Spearman's correlation coefficient for validity of time spent on total physical activity and sedentary behavior were all 0.32 (P < 0.001), and for physical activity energy expenditure was 0.58 (P < 0.001). Time spent on moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and light physical activity showed a relatively low correlation with the accelerometer (rho = 0.20, P = 0.040; rho = 0.19, P = 0.054).
CONCLUSION
The CCPAQ appears to be a promising and feasible method to assess physical activity pattern in Chinese children.

Objective To explore the application value of sedation-agitation scale (SAS) in broncoscopy in children by observing sedative drug dosage, adverse reactions and operator's satisfaction. Methods Children were divided into two groups, control group and SAS group, before broncoscopy. Midazolam was given a dose 0.10 ~ 0.30 mg/kg according to doctor's experience, without any assessment, while the SAS group were given an initial doses of Midazolam 0.10 mg/kg and then continued giving Midazolam until the SAS score reached 3 points to 4 points, but the maxium does less than 10 mg. The maxium dosage of Midazolam in both groups was less than 10 mg. Then compare the dosage and adverse reactions of Midazolam and operator's satisfaction between the two groups. Results 606 children were enrolled in the study, 364 were boys and 242 were girls. The age ranged from 1 month to 17 years, while the mean age was (3.97 ± 3.94) years. The body weights were from 2.4 kg to 56.0 kg, and the mean weight was (16.18 ± 10.65) kg. 301 children were included into control group and 305 children were included into SAS group. The gender composition, age range, department source and composition of the diseases of the two groups were compared, and the differences were not statistically significant. Compared with the control group, there was no severe adverse reaction such as respiratory depression or excessive sedation in the SAS group, and the average amount of Midazolam was lower than the dosage in control group [(0.21 ± 0.06) vs (0.26 ± 0.05) mg/kg];the intraoperative agitation, delirium, other adverse drug reactions and the number of involved in the operation, and operation time were reduced, while the differences were statistically significant. The operator's satisfaction is higher, but the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions SAS can be used in assessment of conscious sedation level in children's bronchoscopy, and SAS can guide the individual use of Midazolam, reduce its dosage and adverse reactions,also can improve the operator's satisfaction during the operation. SAS is worthy of application in children's conscious sedation in bronchoscopy.
