Objective:To explore the prospective associations between physical activity and incident ischemic stroke in adults.Methods:Data of China Kadoorie Biobank study in Tongxiang of Zhejiang were used. After excluding participants with cancers, strokes, heart diseases and diabetes at baseline study, a total of 53 916 participants aged 30-79 years were included in the final analysis. The participants were divided into 5 groups according to the quintiles of their physical activity level. Cox proportional hazard regression models was used to calculate the hazard ratios ( HR) for the analysis on the association between baseline physical activity level and risk for ischemic stroke. Results:The total physical activity level in the participants was (30.63±15.25) metabolic equivalent (MET)-h/d, and it was higher in men [(31.04±15.48) MET-h/d] than that in women [(30.33±15.07) MET-h/d] ( P<0.001). In 595 526 person-years of the follow-up (average 11.4 years), a total of 1 138 men and 1 082 women were newly diagnosed with ischemic stroke. Compared to participants with the lowest physical activity level (<16.17 MET-h/d), after adjusting for socio-demographic factors, lifestyle, BMI, waist circumference, and SBP, the HRs for the risk for ischemic stroke in those with moderate low physical activity level (16.17-24.94 MET-h/d), moderate physical activity level (24.95-35.63 MET-h/d), moderate high physical activity level (35.64-43.86 MET-h/d) and the highest physical activity level (≥43.87 MET-h/d) were 0.93 (95% CI: 0.83-1.04), 0.87 (95% CI: 0.76-0.98), 0.82 (95% CI: 0.71-0.95) and 0.76 (95% CI: 0.64-0.89), respectively. Conclusion:Improving physical activity level has an effect on reducing the risk for ischemic stroke.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological patterns of comorbidity of anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms among middle and high school students in Zhejiang Province and to provide evidence for making strategy and evaluation of intervention.Methods:Through a multi-stage sampling design, 28 043 students from 376 schools in 30 counties/districts were recruited and surveyed using anonymous self-administered questionnaires in classrooms under the supervision of trained staff between April and June 2022. Anxiety symptoms were assessed using generalized Anxiety Disorders 7-Item Scale, and depression symptoms were assessed using Patient Health Questionnaire 9-Item Depression Scale. A total of 27 004 students were included in the final analysis.Results:The overall prevalence of comorbidity of anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms was 11.54% (95% CI: 10.90%-12.19%), higher among girls (15.42%, 95% CI: 14.47%- 16.38%) than boys (8.05%, 95% CI: 7.43%-8.67%) ( P<0.001), higher among students living in rural areas (12.35%, 95% CI: 11.49%-13.22%) than those in urban areas (10.06%, 95% CI: 9.27%-10.86%) ( P<0.001). The prevalence of comorbidity of students attending middle school, academic high school, and vocational high school was 11.73% (95% CI: 10.82%-12.64%), 12.49% (95% CI: 11.20%- 13.79%), and 9.98% (95% CI: 8.68%-11.27%), respectively ( P=0.025). The prevalence of comorbidity was higher among students in divorced/widow/separated families (16.64%, 95% CI: 14.86%-18.43%) than those in intact families (10.82%, 95% CI: 10.14%-11.50%) ( P<0.001). The wealthier the families, the lower the prevalence of comorbidity ( P<0.001). The prevalence of comorbidity was higher among cigarettes smokers in the past 30 days (21.70%,95% CI: 18.24%- 25.16%) than non-smokers (11.13%, 95% CI: 10.51%-11.76%), higher among alcohol drinkers in the past 30 days (19.36%, 95% CI: 17.58%-21.14%) than non-drinkers (10.05%, 95% CI: 9.43%- 10.68%), higher among students engaging in physical fight in the past 12 months (18.42%, 95% CI: 16.75%-20.09%) than those without physical fight (10.45%, 95% CI: 9.81%-11.10%). The more frequently students engaged in physical exercise, the lower the prevalence of comorbidity ( P<0.001). The poorer the academic performance self-reported, the higher the prevalence of comorbidity ( P<0.001). Conclusion:More than one-tenth of middle and high school students in Zhejiang Province have comorbidity of anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms, and more attention should be paid to adolescent mental health.

The age was (56.3±16.8)years, and 2 604 cases (52.6%) were male. The most common type of syncope was neurally mediated syncope (2 345 (47.4%)), followed by cardiac syncope (1 085 (21.9%)), orthostatic hypotensive syncope (311 (6.3%)), and unexplained syncope accounted for nearly one third (1 155 (23.3%)). Predisposing syncope was more common in patients under 65 years of age(2 066(72.4%) vs. 786(27.6%),χ 2=136.5, P<0.001). Presyncope was more common in patients with neurally mediated syncope (1 972(79.0%) vs.1 908(73.9%), χ 2=17.756, P<0.001). Premonitory symptoms were more common in women(1 837(80.0%) vs. 1 863(73.0%),χ 2=33.432, P<0.001). Presyncope syndrome was more common in patients under 65 years of age (2 482(77.8%) vs. 1 218(73.4%),χ 2=17.523, P=0.001). Cyanosis was more common in ≥65 years old patients (271(18.2%) vs. 369(12.7%), χ 2=23.235, P<0.001). Urinary incontinence was more common in old patients aged ≥65 years(252(15.2%) vs. 345(10.8%), χ 2=19.313, P<0.001). Family history was more common in patients with cardiogenic syncope compared with other types of syncope (264(24.3%) vs. 754(19.5%), χ 2=11.899, P=0.001). Hypertention(1 480(30.5%)), coronary heart disease(1 057(21.4%)), atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation(359(7.2%)), second degree atrioventricular block(236(4.8%)) were common complications of syncope. The proportion of patients with coronary heart disease was significantly higher in cardiac syncope than that of other types of syncope(417(38.4%) vs. 640(16.6%), χ 2=241.376, P<0.001). Other common complications included cerebrovascular diseases (551 (11.1%)) and diabetes mellitus (632(12.8%)). Conclusions:Neurally mediated syncope is the most common syncope in adult Chinese population. Patients with predisposing conditions and premonitory conditions are younger.

Objective :
To explore the relationship between alcohol consumption and hypertension in adults of Zhejiang Province, so as to provide scientific evidence for the prevention and control of hypertension.
Methods:
Data were collected from 10 national surveillance sites in Zhejiang Province in the 2018 China Chronic Disease and Risk Factors Surveillance. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to explore the relationship between alcohol consumption and hypertension in adults of Zhejiang Province.
Results :
Among 5 908 people included, 2 641 were males, accounting for 50.38%; and 3 267 were females, accounting for 49.62%. There were 2 721 cases of hypertension ( 28.54% ). The number of the cases with no, light and excessive alcohol consumption was 3 945, 1 117 and 846, accounting for 66.28%, 23.65% and 10.07%, respectively, after complex sampling weighting. The results of the multivariate logistic regression model showed that compared with those with no alcohol consumption, the adults with excessive alcohol consumption had higher risk of hypertension ( OR=2.126, 95%CI: 1.649-2.741 ); men with light ( OR=1.875, 95%CI: 1.075-3.270 ) and excessive alcohol consumption ( OR=2.752, 95%CI: 2.021-3.748 ) had higher risk of hypertension; the 18-<45-year-old adults with light ( OR=2.441, 95%CI: 1.171-5.087 ) and excessive alcohol consumption ( OR=3.368, 95%CI: 1.609-7.049 ), and the ≥60-year-old adults with excessive alcohol consumption ( OR=1.632, 95%CI: 1.174-2.269 ) had higher risk of hypertension.
Conclusions
Light and excessive alcohol consumption are associated with hypertension in Zhejiang adults. The association is stronger between excessive alcohol consumption and hypertension than between light alcohol consumption and hypertension.

Objective:
To reveal the effect of functional training & diet intervention on functional movement screen (FMS) and physical health of obese college male students.
Methods:
Totally 56 obese college male students were divided into experimental group and control group on average and the experimental group took functional training & diet intervention, 2 times per week, with a total of 15 weeks. The control group was only given routine physical exercise without diet intervention. Indexes including seven FMS indicators, seven body composition indicators and five physical fitness indicators were monitored before and after experiment.
Results:
The results showed that except for shoulder flexibility, other FMS indexes (vault, hurdle, straight lunge, trunk stability and trunk rotation stability) of experimental group significantly increased after functional training & diet intervention(t=-2.11, -2.27, -2.22, -2.08, -2.21, P<0.05). The total score of FMS increased significantly from 12.07 to 14.06(t=-4.22, P<0.05). The body composition index including fat content, body water, body fat ratio and BMI decreased to 23.97 kg, 38.83 kg, 26.34% and 27.79 kg/m2(t/χ2=-5.85, -8.30, 9.05, 7.23, P<0.05). Protein increased significantly to 19.00 kg(t=-5.75, P<0.05). The comprehensive score of body composition in the experimental group increased significantly from 64.00 to 66.71(t=-6.27, P<0.05). The scores of experimental group physical fitness indicators including 50 m, sit forward, standing long jump, pull up and 1 000 m increased to 8.24 s, 14.45 cm, 206.61 cm, 3.07 and 278.27 s(t=5.05, -3.96, -7.46, -3.62, 4.40, P<0.05).
Conclusion
The study indicates that 15 weeks of physical function training & dietary intervention could effectively improve the body shape, body composition and motor dysfunction of obese male college students, thus to reduce sports risk and improve physical health.

Objective:To explore the association between snoring and prevalent hypertension among adults in Zhejiang with a cross-sectional study.Methods:After excluding participants with self-reported, physician-diagnosed heart diseases, stroke and cancer at baseline study, 56 728 participants aged 30-79 in the China Kadoorie Biobank study from Tongxiang, Zhejiang were included for the final analysis. Three multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate the ORs for the associations of snoring with prevalent hypertension. Results:The proportion of participants who snored frequently, snored sometimes, and never snored were 24.55%, 23.94%, and 51.51%, respectively. The corresponding figures of males were 32.40%, 26.55%, and 41.05%, respectively. The corresponding figures of females were 19.00%, 22.08%, and 58.92%, respectively ( P<0.001). After adjusted socio-demographic factors, behavioral lifestyle, BMI, waist circumference, and sleep duration etc., in comparison with participants who never snored, the odds ratios (95% CI) of hypertension for those who snored frequently and snored sometimes were 1.17 (1.12-1.23) and 1.12 (1.07-1.18), respectively. The effects of snoring on hypertension were statistically significantly different between women and men, participants who were central obese and those who were not, and between premenopausal and post-menopausal women. Conclusion:Snoring was associated positively with hypertension among adults. The effect of snoring on prevalent hypertension were obvious, especially among people, being female, being central obese, and being premenopausal.
