Objective:
To evaluate the comprehensive intervention effect of lunch for primary and secondary school students in Minhang District, so as to provide a theoretical and practical basis for lunch intervention in school.
Methods:
From October to December 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 1 937 students from one primary and secondary school in Minhang District.A comprehensive intervention measure focusing on "reducing oil and salt" for lunch recipe optimization and nutrition education was carried out, and a questionnaire survey was conducted to evaluate the intervention effect three months later. Chi square test and Wilcoxon rank test were used to compare the data before and after the intervention.
Results:
After intervention, the use of cooking oil and salt, the supply of protein and fat in primary and secondary school lunches were reduced, and had no obvious impact on energy and other major nutrients. After intervention, compared to before intervention, the proportion of primary school students who felt that lunch was greasy decreased (8.9%, 6.2%, χ 2=4.35), and the proportion of primary and secondary school students who felt that lunch were delicious decreased significantly (33.2%, 23.2%; 63.9%, 53.5%, χ 2=26.39, 17.52) ( P < 0.05 ). Secondary school students also felt reduced variety of food ingredients (46.9%, 38.3%, χ 2=16.05, P <0.05). In addition, after intervention, the total surplus rate of primary school students meals decreased (7.4%, 4.4%, χ 2=5.73), mainly reflected in the decrease of the surplus rate of staple foods (7.1%, 2.4%, χ 2=17.39), while the surplus rate of vegetable dishes increased ( 16.0 %, 21.2%, χ 2=6.01) ( P <0.05). Although there was no significant change in the total surplus rate of meals for secondary school students, the surplus rate of staple foods decreased (12.9%, 5.4%, χ 2=33.52), while the surplus rates of meat and vegetable dishes increased (11.2%, 26.9%; 17.5%, 33.2%, χ 2=74.26, 61.88) ( P <0.05). After intervention, there was no statistically significant difference in the overweight and obesity rates of primary school students ( χ 2=0.11,0.43) and secondary school students ( χ 2=0.01,0.00) compared to before intervention( P >0.05). After intervention, the lung capacity of primary school students [1 564 (1 269,1 890) mL] and sitting forward flexion [11.3 (7.6, 15.2) cm] increased compared to before intervention [1 522 (1 259, 1 819 ) mL, 10.5 (6.3, 13.5) cm] ( Z =2.20, 4.68, P <0.01), but there was no statistically significant difference in lung capacity and sitting forward flexion of secondary school students before and after intervention ( Z =-0.46, -0.08, P >0.05).
Conclusion
The comprehensive intervention of school lunch has promoted a significant decrease in the use of oil and salt in lunch and improved the quality of recipes, and has a positive impact on the situation of leftover lunch and the health of students to a certain extent.

BACKGROUND:Our previous studies found that adding barium sulfate could improve the mechanical and radiopaque properties of calcium phosphate cement.However,with the degradation of calcium phosphate,the remaining radiopaque agent is difficult to degrade,and the space-occupying and osteoclast effects at the implantation site affect the bone repair process.Therefore,it is necessary to develop a new biodegradable radiopaque material. OBJECTIVE:To discuss the radiopaque ability of bioactive degradable material strontium polyphosphate(SrPP)and its impact on the physicochemical properties and osteogenic effect of calcium phosphate cement. METHODS:(1)Calcium phosphate cement(CPC),starch modified calcium phosphate cement(CPS)and starch modified calcium phosphate cement(20%SrPP-CPN)containing SrPP(20%mass fraction of bone cement powder)were prepared respectively,and the physicochemical properties of the three groups of bone cements were characterized.(2)The three groups of bone cement extracts were co-cultured with rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,respectively,to detect cell proliferation,energy metabolism,and osteogenic differentiation.(3)Bone defects with a diameter of 5 mm were made on each side of the top of the skull of 24 SD rats,and they were randomly divided into control group(without any intervention),CPC group,CPS group,and 20%SrPP-CPN group for intervention,with 6 rats in each group.Relevant tests were performed after 4 and 12 weeks of intervention. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the other two groups of bone cement,20%SrPP-CPN had enhanced radiopaque ability,increased compressive strength and degradation rate,and prolonged curing time,and 20%SrPP-CPN could release Sr2+ stably during degradation.(2)CCK-8 assay showed that 20%SrPP-CPN did not affect the proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.Cell starvation test(serum-free culture)showed that 20%SrPP-CPN could promote the proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells compared with the other two groups of bone cement.Compared with the other two groups of bone cements,20%SrPP-CPN increased adenosine triphosphate concentration in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.Alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red staining showed that 20%SrPP-CPN could promote osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells compared with the other two groups of bone cement.(3)In the rat skull defect experiment,Micro-CT scanning and histological observation(hematoxylin-eosin and Masson stainings)showed that bone cement in 20%SrPP-CPN group was significantly degraded compared with that in CPC and CPS groups,and a large number of new bone tissues were dispersed in degraded bone cement.Immunohistochemical staining showed that Runx2 protein expression was increased in 20%SrPP-CPN group compared with CPC group and CPS group(P<0.01).(4)These results show that 20%SrPP-CPN has good radiopaque ability and osteogenic properties.

The long-term presence of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the environmental water samples not only affects the life safety of aquatic organisms and disturbs the ecoenvironment, but also poses a serious threat to human health. In this study, amino-functionalized Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4-NH2) were firstly prepared by solvothermal method. Subsequently, polyethyleneimine (PEI) with a branched chain structure was successfully grafted onto Fe3O4 nanoparticles by Schiff base reaction in aqueous solution at room temperature using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent, and a recyclable PEI-grafted magnetic nano-sorbent (Fe3O4@PEI) was synthesized and applied for the detection of NSAIDs in the environmental water samples. The compositional properties of Fe3O4@PEI were investigated by different characterization methods and the parameters affecting the extraction of NSAIDs were optimized. Due to high adsorption of Fe3O4@PEI for NSAIDs, the quantitative analysis of four NSAIDs in the environmental water samples, ketoprofen, naproxen, diclofenac and tolfenamic acid, was performed in combination with high-performance liquid chromatography. A good linear relationship between the chromatographic peak area and concentration was observed in the range of 1−500 µg/mL. The recoveries of the samples at three different spiked levels ranged from 85.6% to 107.8%; the intra-day precision was less than 7.8% (n=6); and the inter-day precision was less than 9.5% (n=3). The method is simple, rapid, accurate and reliable, and can be used for the analysis of NSAIDs in the environmental water samples.

Objective:This study aimed to explore the clinical value of myostatin(MST) and follistatin(FST) as biological biomarkers in evaluating sarcopenia in elderly women.Methods:This was a retrospective cross-sectional study that enrolled 350 females aged 20-89 years who underwent physical examinations in Shanghai Huadong Hospital in 2021. Demographic characteristics, muscle mass, fat mass, bone mineral density, hand grip strength, gait speed, and serum indices of MST and FST were collected.Results:The serum levels of MST did not change significantly with age. However, the serum levels of FST increased with age. In women aged≥60 years, MST was positively correlated with total lean mass and appendicular skeletal muscle index(ASMI; r=0.236, P=0.041; r=0.289, P=0.014), while FST was negatively correlated with ASMI( r=-0.265, P=0.030). In multivariate stepwise regression analysis, after adjusting for age, body mass index, hip bone mineral density, and total fat mass, only FST was independently correlated with ASMI( β=-0.238, P=0.006), while MST was not correlated with ASMI. The receiver operating characteristic curve was plotted using muscle mass reduction as the state variable and serum FST level as the test variable. The area under the curve was 0.753. And when the FST cutoff value was 17.49 ng/mL, the maximum Jordan index was 0.46, with a sensitivity of 77.3% and a specificity of 68.7%. Women aged ≥60 years were divided into three groups based on serum FST levels. Compared to the upper third of the serum FST level group, the low third of the FST level group had a significantly reduced risk of suffering from sarcopenia( OR=0.098, P =0.036). Conclusions:Serum FST lever has a better correlation with muscle mass among elderly women, making it a promising biomarker for evaluating muscle mass.

Background The prevalence of malnutrition in older adults is high. Early use of appropriate screening scales for malnutrition risk and early intervention can effectively improve life quality of the elderly in communities. Objective To evaluate the risk of malnutrition among the community-dwelling elderly in a district of Shanghai and explore its influencing factors. Methods From October to December 2021, a total of 960 seniors aged 65 years and above in community committees (villages) of Minhang District were selected by stratified random sampling. Trained investigators conducted one-to-one interviews with included seniors using questionnaires. The questionnaires included the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), the Activity of Daily Living Scale (ADL), and the malnutrition risk assessment for elderly adults. Height, weight, waist circumference, and calf circumference were measured. Chi-square test and logistic regression were used to analyze potential influencing factors of malnutrition in the elderly. Results Among the 960 community-dwelling seniors of Minhang District, 13 (1.35%) were malnourished and 311 (32.40%) were at the risk of malnutrition. There were statistically significant differences in nutritional status across different categories of age, sex, monthly family income, education level, marital status, waist circumference, dental health status, activity of daily living, nutrition knowledge, suffering from chronic diseases, having > 3 chronic diseases, taking > 3 long-term prescriptions, depression symptoms, sleeping duration, daily outdoor activity time, number of daily food species (milk/soy products/fish/meat/poultry/eggs), daily intake of vegetables and fruits, daily consumption of cooking oil, frequency of physical exercise, frequency of smoking, and living alone (P < 0.05). The logistic regression analysis results showed that poor dental conditions, insufficient daily intake of milk/soy products/fish/meat/poultry/eggs (<3 kinds), insufficient daily intake of vegetables and fruits (<500 g), excessive daily consumption of cooking oil (>25 g), insufficient daily outdoor activities (<1 h·d−1), living alone, low educational level (primary school and below), suffering from chronic diseases, having > 3 chronic diseases, taking > 3 long-term prescriptions, and being single/widowed/divorced were the main risk factors for nutritional abnormalities in the elderly (P< 0.05). Conclusion The elderly in Minhang District of Shanghai have a high malnutrition risk, and their nutritional status is affected by multiple factors, including poor dental status, irrational dietary structure, insufficient time for outdoor activities, suffering from chronic diseases, having > 3 chronic diseases, taking > 3 long-term prescriptions, low educational level, living alone, and being single/widowed/divorced.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2023;44(7):1049-1053
Objective:
To observe the association between puberty development and thyroid function among school-aged girls in Minhang District of Shanghai, in order to explore the effect of puberty development on thyroid function.
Methods:
The study was based on a cohort of adolescent girls recruited in iodine-suitable areas of Minhang District, and the baseline and follow-up survey have been carried out from January to March 2019. The method of phased cluster sampling was used to select one junior high school in the east, south, north and middle of Minhang District, Shanghai, respectively. Finally, 464 new junior high school girls were included in the Cohort study for physical examination, and girls were followed up from January to March 2021. The Puberty Development Scale (PDS) was used to assess the stage of puberty. Serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free triiodothyronine (FT3), and free thyroxine (FT4) were determined for each participant. Thyroid homeostasis structure parameters (THSPs) was calculated. Changes of Thyroid hormones at baseline and follow-up were compared by Wilcoxon signed rank sum test. Multiple linear regression analyses were used to evaluate the associations of thyroid hormones (THs) and THSPs changes with pubertal develepment.
Results:
Serum TSH levels of female studentds decreased significantly, while their FT3 and FT4 levels increased significantly during the study period ( Z=-10.53, -4.71, -12.46, P <0.01). In multiple linear regression analysis after adjustment for co-variables (including baseline age, change of BMI and waist circumference), FT4 and thyroid feedback quantile-based index (TFQI) in the higher puberty category scores changes (△PCS) group were further reduced compared with those in the low △PCS group ( β =-0.66, -0.55 ). Compared to the late puberty at baseline and follow-up (BLFL) group, FT4 and TFQI showed higher decline in the pre-puberty at baseline and late puberty at follow-up (BPFL) group with the pre-puberty at baseline and end of puberty at follow-up (BPFT) group ( β =-0.55, -0.44)( P <0.05). There were no association of △TSH, △FT3, △FT4/FT3 and TSH index changes (△TSHI) with △PCS or the puberty pattern.
Conclusion
Serum TSH decreases while serum FT3 and FT4 increase among girls during puberty. Both the initial stage and the velocity of pubertal development are related to thyroid hormone fluctuations.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of bone cement leakage and recompression of injured vertebrae after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF).Methods:A case-control study was performed to analyze the clinical data of 297 patients with single-segment OVCF who underwent PKP in First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2017 to January 2021, including 67 males and 230 females; aged 60-92 years [(69.5±8.2)years]. According to the occurrence of bone cement leakage, the patients were divided into leakage group ( n=36) and no leakage group ( n=261). According to the occurrence of recompression of injured vertebrae, the patients were divided into recollapse group ( n=40) and no recollapse group ( n=257). The gender, age, fracture segment, type of fracture, fracture severity, cortical disruption, intravertebral cleft, preoperative and postoperative local kyphosis angle, correction value of local kyphosis angle, bone cement injection volume, bone cement distribution, and postoperative anti-osteoporosis treatment were recorded. Univariate analysis was used to analyze the correlation of those factors with bone cement leakage and recompression of injured vertebrae after PKP, followed by multivariate Logistic regression analysis to identify the independent risk factors. Results:Univariate analysis showed that fracture severity, cortical disruption and bone cement injection volume were related to bone cement leakage ( P<0.05 or 0.01). Gender, age, fracture segment, type of fracture, intravertebral cleft, preoperative and postoperative local kyphosis angle, correction value of local kyphosis angle, bone cement distribution, and postoperative anti-osteoporosis treatment were not related to bone cement leakage (all P>0.05). Univariate analysis showed that intravertebral cleft, bone cement distribution, and postoperative anti-osteoporosis treatment were associated with recompression of injured vertebrae (all P<0.01). Gender, age, fracture segment, type of fracture, fracture severity, cortical disruption, preoperative and postoperative local kyphosis angle, correction value of local kyphosis angle, and bone cement injection volume were not related to recompression of injured vertebrae (all P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that severe fracture ( OR=4.23, 95% CI 1.52-11.81, P<0.01), cortical disruption ( OR=3.29,95% CI 1.52-7.13, P<0.01), and bone cement injection volume >8 ml ( OR=2.31,95% CI 1.09-4.92, P<0.05) were significantly related to bone cement leakage. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that intravertebral cleft ( OR=2.10, 95% CI 1.03-4.30, P<0.05), solid type of bone cement distribution ( OR=2.56, 95% CI 1.25-5.27, P<0.05) and no anti-osteoporosis treatment after operation ( OR=3.06, 95% CI 1.46-6.40, P<0.01) were significantly related to recompression of injured vertebrae. Conclusions:For OVCF patients, severe fracture, cortical disruption, and bone cement injection volume>8 ml are independent risk factors for bone cement leakage after PKP. Intravertebral cleft, solid type of bone cement distribution, and no anti-osteoporosis treatment after operation are independent risk factors for recompression of injured vertebrae after PKP.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of vertebral fractures in the elderlys in Shanghai community. Methods Stratified sampling was performed according to the age distribution of the population in 3 urban and 2 suburban communities in Shanghai, and a total of 2 929 old people aged over 65 years were enrolled. The thoracic and lumbar radiographs and questionnaires were obtained in all the participants. The diagnosis of vertebral fractures were evaluated using Genant′s semi-quantitative method, and the prevalence of vertebral fracture was calculated. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of vertebral fracture. Results ( 1) The prevalence of vertebral fractures in community-dwelling elderly was 14.4%totally,and 20.1%in individuals above 80 years old,which was significantly higher than the others (P<0.05). The prevalence of vertebral fractures in females was significantly higher than that in males (18.5%vs 12.4%, P<0.05). (2) The most common vertebral fracture sites were T12 and L1. Grade 1 vertebral fracture was most common in our cohort. The proportions of grade 2 and grade 3 were significant higher in females than that in males (30.6% vs 17.0%, P<0.05). (3) Gender and sex had an interaction effect on the prevalence of vertebral fractures. Prevalence of vertebral fractures increased steadily with age in both genders, although the gradient was steeper for women (P<0.001). (4) Logistic regression analysis showed that: female, age, parental hip fracture history, previous fracture history, and alcohol consumption were risk factors of vertebral fractures in community elderly. Smoking, long-term use of glucocorticoid, various diseases associated with secondary osteoporosis had no significant correlation with vertebral fracture. Conclusion The vertebral fractures were more common and serious in women than in men in community elderly. Age was significantly correlated with the presence of vertebral fracture in women than that in men. Female, age, parental hip fracture history, previous fracture history, and alcohol consumption were risk factors of vertebral fractures in community elderlys.

Objective To explore the effects of systematic nursing intervention on psychology and quality of life in primary liver cancer patients undergoing surgery. Methods From January 2014 to December 2016, a total of 160 primary liver cancer patients undergoing surgery were selected as subjects by purposive sampling. All of the patients were divided into observation group and control group by the random number table, 80 cases in each group. Patients of control group were treated with the perioperative conventional nursing. On the basis, patients of observation group accepted systematic nursing intervention. We assessed patients in two groups with the SDS, SAS, Quality of Life of Cancer Patient Core Scale before and after intervention. Results After intervention, the score of SDS and SAS of patients in the observation group was lower than that of the control group with significant differences (P<0.01). Besides, the score of general health, physical functioning, role functioning, emotional functioning, cognitive functioning of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions Systematic nursing intervention can improve negative emotions and quality of life of patients ,which is worthy of generalization and application.
