Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(2):219-222
Objective:
To understand the prevalence and related factors of depressive symptoms among primary and secondary school students in the in depth monitoring counties of China s Rural Compulsory Education Nutrition Improvement Program, so as to provide a basis for prevention and psychological intervention of depressive symptoms among children and adolescents in rural areas.
Methods:
In November 2022, a stratified random sampling method was adopted to collect height and weight data, basic personal and family information of 7 949 primary and secondary school students from grade three to grade nine through physical measurements and questionnaires in 56 key monitoring schools implementing the Student Nutrition Improvement Program in 7 in depth monitoring counties (Jalaid Banner in Inner Mongolia, Jinzhai County in Anhui, Mao Xian in Sichuan, Tiandeng County in Guangxi, Mian County in Shaanxi, Zhaozhou County in Heilongjiang and Youxi County in Fujian), and to obtain the information related to their depressive symptoms through the self assessment questionnaire on depression. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze the prevalence of depressive symptoms among primary and secondary school students, as well as their related factors.
Results:
The detection rate of depressive symptoms among primary and secondary school students in the in depth monitored counties was 23.5%. Logistic regression analysis showed that the probability of detecting depressive symptoms was higher among female students, middle school students, students whose video screen duration per day was >2 h, and students whose parents marital status was divorced or widowed ( OR =1.40, 1.64, 1.60, 1.24), and students whose sleep duration reached the recommended standard, whose parents usually accompanied them daily for time was 60-<120 min and ≥120 min, and students whose mothers literacy level was middle school graduation had lower probability of detecting depressive symptoms ( OR =0.85, 0.84, 0.71, 0.76) ( P < 0.05 ).
Conclusion
The detection rate of depressive symptoms among students in the in depth monitoring area is high, and targeted interventions need to be developed for students to reduce the risk of mental health problems.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(6):788-791
Objective:
To analyze the features of unhealthy lifestyle patterns among primary and secondary school students in the nutrition improvement program for rural compulsory education students (NIPRCES) areas in China in 2021 and 2023, so as to provide data support for lifestyle promotion and healthy development among primary and secondary school students.
Methods:
Adopting a cluster random sampling method, data on primary and secondary students aged 7-15 years from nutrition and health surveillance of China NIPRCES in 2021 and 2023 were collected. The prevalence of unhealthy lifestyles among primary and secondary students such as physical inactivity, outdoor inactivity, excessive screen time, and sleep deprivation by gender, school section, urban/rural, and region were analyzed. The reporting rates of the above indicators among primary and secondary students were compared by Chi-square test.
Results:
In 2021 and 2023, the rates of moderate to vigorous physical inactivity among primary and secondary school students were 79.2% and 80.4%, the rates of outdoor inactivity were 42.8% and 49.3%, the rates of excessive video time were 2.6% and 2.9%, the rates of sleep deprivation were 32.9% and 22.6%, and the differences were statistically significant( χ 2=51.86,1 071.48,18.36,3 296.99, P <0.05). In 2023, the rate of outdoor inactivity for primary and secondary students increased by 6.5 percentage points compared with 2021, and the rate of sleep deprivation decreased by 10.3 percentage points compared with that in 2021. In 2021 and 2023, the reporting rates of moderate to vigorous physical inactivity, outdoor inactivity, and sleep deprivation among girls and junior high school students were higher than those among boys ( χ 2=174.41,180.11; 175.75, 85.46 ;92.22,151.35) and elementary school students ( χ 2=136.64,5.75; 40.55,4.71;162.80,3 291.61); the reporting rates of moderate to vigorous physical inactivity( χ 2=194.43,118.60) and sleep deprivation ( χ 2=969.66,983.72) among urban students were higher than those among rural students; the reporting rates of excessive video time for boys and junior high school students were higher than those for girls ( χ 2=103.62,84.85) and elementary school students ( χ 2=810.09,626.51)( P <0.05). From a regional distribution perspective, the reporting rates of moderato to vigorous physical inactivity, outdoor inactivity, and excessive video time among primary and seconday school students in the central and western regions were lower than those in the eastern region ( χ 2= 663.44,302.78; 356.97,82.10;50.89,81.83) ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
Unhealthy lifestyles remain prevalent among primary and secondary students in NIPRCES areas of China. These findings underscore the need to strengthen policy implementation for promoting healthy lifestyles among primary and secondary school students.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the synergistic effect and mechanism of curcumin (CUR) combined with zerumbone (ZER) on the biological behavior of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells. METHODS CCK-8 method and Gin’s formula were used to screen the optimal concentration combination for synergistic effect after the combination of CUR and ZER. The cells were divided into blank group, CUR group, ZER group, and CUR+ZER group. Flow cytometry was used to evaluate cell apoptosis, and clone formation experiment was used to evaluate cell proliferation ability, scratch experiment and Transwell migration experiment were used to evaluate cell migration ability, and Transwell invasion experiment was used to evaluate cell invasion ability. Western blot assay was used to detect the protein expressions of phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (p- PI3K), phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-Akt), and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A). RESULTS The half inhibitory concentrations of CUR and ZER on A549 cells were approximately 16 and 12 μmol/L, respectively; the drug combination of CUR 8 μmol/L+ZER 6 μmol/L had the highest efficiency enhancement index, with the cell proliferation inhibition rate of (77.41±4.16)%, indicating the most significant synergistic effect. Compared with the CUR and ZER groups, the cell apoptosis rate in the CUR+ZER group was significantly increased (P<0.01), while the cell clone formation rate, cell migration rate, the number of migrating cells, the number of invading cells, and relative expression levels of p-PI3K, p-Akt, and VEGF-A proteins in the cells were significantly reduced (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS The combination of CUR and ZER has a synergistic effect, significantly promoting the apoptosis of NSCLC cells, and inhibiting cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Its potential mechanism may be closely related to the inhibition of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, thereby down-regulating the protein expression of VEGF-A.

Objective:
To analyze the total fluids intake and sources of college students from Hebei in spring and summer, and to provide a scientific reference for appropriate fluids intake in different seasons.
Methods:
Subjects were recruited in a university in Baoding, Hebei Province, and investigations were conducted in April and June 2021. The number of people who completed both spring and summer investigations was 80. Quantitative instruments and 7 day 24 h Fluid Intake Questionnaire were used to investigate the total drinking fluids, and it was recorded for 7 consecutive days in spring and summer respectively. The duplicate portion method was used to investigate the water from food. The total fluids intake and sources among subjects were analyzed in spring and summer.
Results:
There was no statistical significance between the total drinking fluids and total fluids intake between spring and summer [1 141(715), 1 176(649)mL/d, (2 496±604)(2 458±554)mL/d] ( F=1.86, 0.59, P >0.05). Spring showed significantly higher water from food compared with summer [(1 318±274)(1 217±302)mL/d]( F=16.63, P <0.05). The proportions of total drinking fluids and water from food in spring were 46% and 54%, respectively, and both were 50% in summer, the differences were statistically significant ( F=12.97, 12.97, P <0.05). There were differences in total fluids intake,total drinking fluids and water from food of different genders in earch season ( t/Z =4.75, -3.63, 3.44; 4.80, -2.91, 4.01, P <0.05). There were differences in total water intake, total drinking fluids, the proportions of total drinking fluids and water from food of different BMI groups in each season ( F/H =8.08, 16.65, 3.03, 3.03; 7.11,17.97, 4.52, 4.52, P <0.05). In spring, only 13.8% of subjects achieved the recommended total drinking fluids of China, compared with 18.8% in summer. In spring and summer, the total fluids intake, total drinking fluids, the proportions of total drinking fluids in the group achieved the recommendation were all higher than those who did not reach the recommendation ( t/Z =6.64, -5.19, 5.79; 8.12, -5.97, 5.70, P <0.05).
Conclusion
Season is a factor that affects total fluids intake, and it should be taken into account when setting the recommendation on adequate water intake.

Brain metastasis is a common and serious complication of breast cancer, which is commonly associated with poor survival and prognosis. In particular, the treatment of brain metastasis from triple-negative breast cancer (BM-TNBC) has to face the distinct therapeutic challenges from tumor heterogeneity, circulating tumor cells (CTCs), blood-brain barrier (BBB) and blood-tumor barrier (BTB), which is in unmet clinical needs. Herein, combining with the advantages of synthetic and natural targeting moieties, we develop a "Y-shaped" peptide pVAP-decorated platelet-hybrid liposome drug delivery system to address the all-stage targeted drug delivery for the whole progression of BM-TNBC. Inherited from the activated platelet, the hybrid liposomes still retain the native affinity toward CTCs. Further, the peptide-mediated targeting to breast cancer cells and transport across BBB/BTB are demonstrated in vitro and in vivo. The resultant delivery platform significantly improves the drug accumulation both in orthotopic breast tumors and brain metastatic lesions, and eventually exhibits an outperformance in the inhibition of BM-TNBC compared with the free drug. Overall, this work provides a promising prospect for the comprehensive treatment of BM-TNBC, which could be generalized to other cell types or used in imaging platforms in the future.

Objective:To apply the best evidence of exercise rehabilitation during hospitalization for patients with acute myocardial infarction after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in clinical practice, in order to standardize the management of exercise rehabilitation of patients by medical staff and promote the practice of cardiac rehabilitation.Methods:By using the clinical evidence practice application system of Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Evidence-Based Health Care Center, the literatures related to the subject were systematically retrieved and quality evaluation was conducted. A total of 20 best evidences were collected, and 16 evidence-based quality review standards were developed in combination with the clinical context. The implementation of nurses' review indicators, the score of Cardiac Rehabilitation Knowledge Test and the score of Exercise Fear Scale before and after the application of evidence were compared respectively on the nurses and patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI from February 1 to March 30, 2020 and from May 1 to July 3, 2020.Results:Except for index 1 and index 2, the implementation rates of all review indexes before and after the application of evidence were all increased, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . The score of Cardiac Rehabilitation Knowledge Test was (91.14±14.05) after the application of evidence, which was higher than (80.00±10.41) before the application of evidence, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-2.682, P<0.05) . After the application of evidence, the score of Exercise Fear Scale for Patients with Heart Disease was (43.43±10.93) , which was not statistically significantly different from the score (44.19±8.58) before the application of the evidence ( t=0.280, P>0.05) . Conclusions:The application of the best evidence of exercise rehabilitation during hospitalization in patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI can improve the management and cognition of medical staff on exercise rehabilitation of patients and reduce the influence of exercise fear avoidance of patients.

Methods:
A total of 715 subjects were selected from a university in Baoding City, Hebei Province in March 2017 by random cluster sampling. Knowledge, attitude and behavior of drinking water among college students were investigated by self-designed questionnaires.
Results:
The awareness rate of water consumption of 1 500-1 700 mL was 19.0%, the awareness rate of drinking modes was 95.0%, the awareness rate of suitable drinking time was 30.1%, the awareness rate on drinking water was higher among girls and medical major sutdents (χ2=22.16, 12.49, P<0.05); the awareness rate on the relationship between insufficient drinking water and stroke, hypertension and coronary heart disease was generally low, with sophornore higher than freshman (χ2=11.10, P<0.05). The most common medium for accessing drinking water knowledge among the respondents was network (60.0%), followed by campus publicity/classroom teaching (48.3%). 99.6% of the respondents believed that drinking water was important to health, 98.3% were willing to change their drinking habits, 93.0% were willing to pay attention to drinking water education, and the proportion of female students was higher than that of male students (χ2=5.46, 6.49, 8.01, P<0.05). In real life, 48.4% of the respondents drank water on an empty stomach in the morning and 40.7% before going to bed. 45.5% of the respondents drank water when they thought of it.
Conclusion
College students in Hebei province are generally lack of appropriate awareness on water drinking, which varied in sex, grade and major. While the attitude towards water drinking is satisfactory, drinking behavior need to be improved.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2019;40(9):1296-1299
Objective:
To investigate the association of within-day drinking occasions with average amount consumed per drinking occasion during spring among college students in Hebei Province and to provide the basic data for the revision of quantity of consumption among Chinese residents.
Methods:
A total of 156 college students in Hebei Province were selected by using simple random sampling method. Information on daily amount and types of water consumption was recorded using the 7-day 24-hour recording method. The daily amount and type of drinking water by sex and BMI were analyzed and compared.
Results:
The daily median drinking water intake was 1 135 mL; the daily median number of drinking occasion was 6, with 34.6% of participants less than 6 drinking occasions; the median amount consumed per drinking occasion was 177 mL. The daily number of water and plain water drinking occasion of females were higher than males(χ2/Z=8.34, -2.03, P<0.05); the amount consumed per drinking occasion, the amount of plain water and beverages consumed per drinking occasion of males were higher than females(χ2/Z=23.86, -5.48, 3.70, P<0.01); The differences of the amount of plain water consumed per day among students and their BMI were of statistical significance(χ2=9.17, P=0.03), the amount of drinking water each time was positively correlated with body surface area(r=0.18, P=0.03), and frequency of drinking water was positively correlated with the amount of drinking water, negatively correlated with the amount of drinking water each time. The amount of drinking water was positively correlated with the amount of drinking water each time(r=0.30, -0.47, 0.61, P<0.01).
Conclusion
There is a certain proportion of unhealthy drinking behavior among college students; drinking behavior is different by sex and BMI. With the increase of drinking occasions, the amount consumed in each drinking occasion decreases, but total amount of drinking water increases.
