1.Association between preschoolers physical activity levels and parental sports concept and behavior
Chinese Journal of School Health 2024;45(7):1036-1039
Objective:
To analyze the impact of parental sports concept and behavior on physical activity in preschool children, so as to provide a foundation for future guidance on fostering childrens physical activity within the family context.
Methods:
From November to December 2020, a clustered convenience sampling method was employed to conduct surveys, and a total of 283 children were selectal from one kindergarten each in Beijing, Shenyang, and Xian. Participating children wore ActiGraph GT9X accelerometers continuously for one week to collect data on different intensity levels of physical activity. Physical Activity afterschool Questionnaire for Preschooler (P-PAQ) was utilized to assess parental sports concept and behavior. The gender differences in physical activity level and physical activity compliance rate were analyzed by using ttest, Mann-Whitney U test, and Chisquare test; and the relationship between parental exercise concepts and behaviors and physical activity of preschool children was analyzed using Spearman rank correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis.
Results:
Parental sports concept was significantly positively correlated with average daily moderatetovigorous physical activity (MVPA) and total physical activity (TPA) in children (r=0.12-0.16, P<0.05). Parental sports behavior was significantly positively correlated with childrens average daily TPA (r=0.25, P<0.05). Multiple linear regression revealed that parental sports concept was positively correlated with average daily MVPA and TPA in both boys and girls (B=0.65-0.83), while parental sports behavior only was positively correlated with boys average daily MVPA and TPA (B=0.24-0.25)(P<0.05).
Conclusions
Parental sports concept and behavior can impact physical activity levels in preschool children, exhibiting gender differences. Future guidance on physical activity in family upbringing should consider both parental sports concept and behavior, and pay attention to the influence of childrens gender.

Objective:To investigate the value of BRAF V600E and multigene detection and stratified application for the diagnosis of thyroid nodules.Methods:A total of 1 117 patients with thyroid nodules resection at Nanjing Gulou Hospital from December 2020 to July 2022 were enrolled in the study. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) and core biopsy samplings were performed for cytopathologic examination and genetic testings; the findings were combined with BSRTC classification. The diagnostic performance of BRAF V600E and multigene detection were compared.Results:Among the 1, 117 patients who underwent thyroid nodules resection, 285 were male and 832 were female, with a median age of 46 years (range: 24-76 years). Postoperative histopathologic examination confirmed 1 040 cases of thyroid cancer and 77 cases of benign nodules. The sensitivity (87.0% vs. 80.8%, P<0.01) and diagnostic accuracy (87.9% vs. 82.1%, P<0.01) of multigene detection were significantly higher than those of BRAF V600E detection. The result of multigene detection showed that BRAF V600E mutation was the most common finding, followed by CCDC6-RET (E1-E12) fusion, ETV6-NTRK3 fusion, and KRAS mutation. Multigene detection had a higher sensitivity (81.9% vs. 72.8%, P<0.01) and lower cancer risk in wild-type (47.6% vs. 57.7%, P=0.069) than BRAF V600E detection in BSRTCⅠ-Ⅴ lesions. Compared with BRAF V600E detection, multigene had no significant difference of sensitivity in BSRTC Ⅰ lesions, but significantly higher sensitivity (86.3% vs 74.0%, P<0.01) in BSRTC Ⅲ lesions. Conclusions:Genetic detection can be used as an effective tool for the diagnosis of thyroid nodules. A stratified application of molecular markers in the diagnosis of thyroid nodules is proposed. Combined with FNA, single gene or multigene detection both can effectively assist in the diagnosis of thyroid nodules. Moreover, multigene detection is superior to single gene detection. For BSRTC Ⅲ lesion with wild-type BRAF, multigene detection can be considered with a repeated FNA.

Ferroptosis, a new form of programmed cell death marked by iron-dependent phospholipid peroxidation, is regulated by complex cellular metabolic pathways, including iron metabolism, lipid metabolism, and oxidation-reduction system, is associated with many organ injuries and degeneration, and has great potential in the treatment of ischemic diseases and lipid peroxide-related degenerative diseases. Myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI) is the most common cause of death in patients with acute myocardial infarction after revascularization therapy. Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis is intimately related to the pathological process of MIRI. Ferroptosis is associated with MIRI through oxidative stress, iron metabolism, lipid metabolism, endoplasmic reticulum stress and inflammatory response. Intervention of ferroptosis during reperfusion can effectively improve cardiac function and reduce myocardial infarct size. In this paper, the research progress was explored between ferroptosis and MIRI, and the specific role of ferroptosis in MIRI was discussed.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2023;44(9):1328-1332
Objective:
To establish the norm of the Physical Activity afterschool Questionnaire for Preschooler(P-PAQ) in urban areas of China, so as to provide a basis for graded guidance from the family perspective and to improve children s physical activity levels.
Methods:
From October 2020 to January 2021, 6 267 children aged 3-6 years old were recruited from 40 kindergartens in eight cities across six major administrative regions by stratified cluster sampling, and the P-PAQ initially developed by the researchers of this study were completed by the primary caregivers. The questionnaire was administered to collect data relating to the amount of physical activity undertaken by the preschoolers, and the norm was determined by quartiles. Data relating to parental concepts of sports and parental behavior were assessed by calculating mean scores in order to establish the norm.
Results:
Among preschoolers in urban areas, the M(P 25 ,P 75 ) of total physical activity time (min/day), moderate-to-vigorous physical activity time (min/day), outdoor time (min/day) and screen time (min/day) on school days outside kindergarten and on weekends were 84 (54,120), 22 (8,40), 12 (0,24) and 18 (6,30), and 170 (115,240), 60 (30,95), 90 (35,120) and 30 (20,60), respectively. When the score of parents sports concept and behavior (total score of 40) were≥34, 29-<34, 24-<29, <24, it was defined as four levels about above medium, medium, lower medium and lower, respectively. And for two dimensions,when the score of parental sports concept were ≥19, 17-<19, 15-<17, <15,and the score of parental behaviors were ≥16, 12-<16, 8-<12, <8, it was defined as four levels about upper medium, medium, lower medium and lower, respectively.
Conclusion
