Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(3):315-320
Objective:
To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs.
Methods:
Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test.
Results:
From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students.
Conclusion
Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

ObjectiveTo observe the efficacy and safety of Uyghur medicine Yangxin Dawayimixike Honey Paste (养心达瓦依米西克蜜膏, YDMHP) in the treatment of stable angina pectoris (SAP) of qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome. MethodsA randomized , double-blind, positive-controlled,multi-center clinical trial was conducted, in which 370 patients with SAP of qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome were randomly divided into treatment group(279 cases)and control group(91cases)at a ratio of 3∶1. The treatment group was orally administered with YDMHP, 3 g each time, and placebo of Xuefu Zhuyu Capsule (血府逐瘀胶囊), 2.4 g each time, while the control group was treated with Xuefu Zhuyu Capsule, 2.4 g each time, and placebo of YDMHP, 3 g each time, both twice a day for a course of 12 weeks. The primary outcome was the effect of angina pectoris symptom. The secondary outcomes include single angina symptom scores such as number of attacks, duration of attacks, pain intensity and usae of nitroglycerin scores, the total angina symptom score before and after the treatment, the usage of nitroglycerin, the exercise duration in treadmill exercise test (TET) and the Duck treadmill score among patients,the scores of Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) on five dimensions including physical limitations, anginal stability, anginal frequency, treatment satisfaction, and disease perception, and efficacy of TCM syndrome and of each single TCM symptom after treatment. The safety were evaluated by examine blood routine, urine routine, liver and kidney function, fasting blood sugar, electrocardiogram, adverse events. ResultsThe total effective rate of angina symptom in the treatment group was 71.69% (200/279), significantly higher than 51.64% (47/91) in the control group (P<0.01). The curative and markedly effective rate of TCM syndrome in the treatment group was 53.05% (148/279), which was significantly higher than 25.27% (23/91) in the control group (P<0.01). After treatment, scores of the number as well as duration of angina attacks and pain severity, the total score of angina symptoms, and the usage of nitroglycerin significantly decreased in both groups, and more changes were seen in the treatment group than in the control group; the scores of physical limitations, anginal stability, anginal frequency, treatment satisfaction, and disease perception in both groups significantly increased, and more improvement were shown in the experimental group regarding the anginal stability, anginal frequency and treatment satisfaction (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The effects of chest pain, chest tightness, palpitation, shortness of breath and fatigue in experimental group were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the exercise duration of treadmill test and Duke score among patients between the two groups either before or after treatment (P>0.05). Adverse events occurred in 66 cases (23.66%) of the experimental group and 16 cases (17.58%) of the control group, with no statistical significance between the two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionThe Uyghur medicine YDMHP can effectively improve symptoms of angina pectoris, reduce the number, duration, and intensity of attacks, decrease the dosage of nitrogly-cerin and improve the individual TCM symptoms and has good safety in the treatment of SAP patients of qi stagnation and blood stasis.

[Objective] To investigate the functional differences and potential effects of chromatin spatial structure in patients with normal karyotype and complex karyotype multiple myeloma. [Methods] High-throughput chromosome conformational capture (Hi-C) analysis was performed on plasma cells of 1 case with 1q21 complex karyotype and 1 case with normal karyotype multiple myeloma, and the differences in three-dimensional genome structure between the two patients were analyzed, and the transcriptome characteristics of plasma cells were combined to investigate the differential features through gene functional enrichment. [Results] A/B switch occurred in 36% of the chromatin compartments in two cases, and 1 041 genes in patient with complex karyotype had B/A switch. About 3 500 topological association domains (TADs) were identified in each sample, and there was no significant difference. The number of loops identified in complex karyotype sample was 1 069, which was 1/6 of the normal sample, and there were significant differences in the number of three different types of loops, which to some extent reflected the loss of genome stability. Transcriptome analysis showed significant differences in expression profiles between the two patients, and a total of 6 150 differentially expressed genes (3 303 up-regulated genes and 2 847 down-regulated genes) were identified. [Conclusion] Compared with patient with normal karyotype, patient with 1q21 complex karyotype multiple myeloma exhibit significant changes in the spatial structure of plasma cell chromatin at different levels, which leads to changes in gene expression and activation of pathways related to cancer progression.

To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of duodenal-type follicular lymphoma (D-FL), and to deepen the understanding of Duodenal-type follicular lymphoma. The clinical symptoms, endoscopic features, pathologic features, immunophenotype, molecular pathological features and treatment follow-up of 18 D-FL patients diagnosed in Department of Pathology, Beijing Tiantan Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University between January 2020 and July 2023 were summarized. A total of 18 patients with D-FL were included, including 10 males and 8 females. The median age was 49 (32-69) years respectively. Most of the patients were found during gastroenteroscopy or presented with the common gastrointestinal symptoms of stomach pain, acid reflux, vomiting and diarrhea. Most endoscopic findings were multiple small gray and white polyposis. In the pathological morphology, the mucous layer and submucous layer showed lymphoid follicular structures with full and strained follicles. The immunophenotype showed that the tumor cells strongly expressed CD20 and BCL2 and had low proliferation activity. Immunoglobulin clonal analysis of 1 case showed IgK monoclonal rearrangement (1/1). FISH showed 1 case of BCL2 gene rearrangement (1/3). All patients did not receive targeted chemotherapy and adopted a wait-and-see strategy. Median follow-up was 12 (2-34) months. This study shows that D-FL is an indolent lymphoma, which tends to occur in the duodenum and has a good prognosis.
