Objective:
To understand the potential categories of health risk behaviors among adolescents in the Wuling Mountain Area and their association with school connectedness, so as to provide reference for formulating classified and effective intervention measures.
Methods:
From March to June 2023, 3 386 middle and high school students from eight schools in the Wuling Mountain Area were selected using the multistage stratified cluster random sampling method. A basic information questionnaire, health risk behaviors questionnaire, and school connectedness scale were utilized for the survey. The latent classes of adolescent health risk behaviors in the Wuling Mountain Area were investigated by using latent class analysis, while an multinomial Logistic regression model was employed to analyze the association between latent classes and school connectedness.
Results:
Adolescent health risk behaviors in the Wuling Mountains Area were classified into three latent classes: high risk class of episodic behaviors ( 5.64 %), high risk class of implicit behaviors (26.90%), and low risk class of implicit behaviors (67.45%). Gender, ethnicity, and family type revealed significant differences in the distribution of the three latent classes ( χ 2=117.91, 22.55, 21.51, P <0.05). The results of the regression model analysis showed that, with the low risk class as the reference category, high school connectedness scores were associated with the high risk class of episodic behaviors ( OR=0.89, 95%CI = 0.88- 0.91) and the high risk class of implicit behaviors ( OR=0.90, 95%CI =0.89-0.91)( P <0.05).
Conclusions
The characteristics of adolescent health risk behavior classes in the Wuling Mountain Area are obvious. The high risk class of episodic behaviors and the high risk class of implicit behaviors are negatively correlated with school connectedness. Corresponding measures should be taken to enhance adolescents sense of belonging in school and reduce the aggregation and co occurrence of health risk behaviors.

Objective:
To explore the causal relationship between adolescent school connectedness and the co-occurrence with health risk behaviors among junior high school students, so as to provide the reference for reducing the occurrence of adolescents health risk behaviors among junior high school students.
Methods:
A total of 924 students from two junior high schools in Jishou City were selected by the convenience sampling and cluster sampling methods, and two follow up surveys were conducted at 6 month intervals in April (T1) and October (T2) of 2023 using the Adolescent Health Risk Behavior Questionnaire and the School Connection Scale. The scores of the co-occurrence of school connectedness and health risk behaviors among junior high school students were compared by different survey periods and genders using the t-test, and cross lagged analyses were performed using Mplus 8.3 software.
Results:
School connectedness scores among junior high school students in T1 and T2 surveys were (38.86±7.46) (37.87± 7.71 ) and co-occurrence of health risk behaviors scores were (1.64±0.68) (1.83±0.53), respectively, and the differences between the scores of the 2 surveys were statistically significant ( t=4.24, -4.14, P <0.05). The correlation between school connectedness and co-occurrence of health risk behaviors were statistically significant in both surveys ( r =-0.46 to -0.33, P <0.05). Cross lagged analyses showed that school connectedness in T1 negatively predicted the co-occurrence of health risk behaviors in T2 ( β =-0.08), and the co-occurrence of health risk behaviors in T1 negatively predicted the school connectedness in T2 ( β =-0.15) ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
There is a longitudinal causal relationship between school connectedness and co-occurrence of health risk behaviors among junior high school students. School connectedness should be improved through various ways to reduce the co-occurrence of health risk behaviors.

Objective:To evaluate the intelligent performance measurement system for colonoscopy.Methods:Nine endoscopists from Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University were randomly assigned to the quality control group and the control group based on inclusion and exclusion criteria by the random number table. In the pre-quality-control stage (from April 20, 2019 to May 30, 2019), colonoscopic data acquired by the enrolled endoscopists were collected. In the training stage (June 1-30, 2019), the quality control group was trained on the quality control knowledge and the use of intelligent gastrointestinal endoscopy performance measurement system; but the control group was only trained on the quality control knowledge.In the post-quality-control stage (from July 1, 2019 to August 20, 2019), a weekly quality feedback was given to endoscopists of the quality control group, while the endoscopists of the control group had no quality control report.Then, the colonoscopic data acquired by enrolled endoscopists were prospectively collected during the period. The primary endpoint was adenoma detection rate. The secondary endpoints were withdrawal time, polyp detection rate and cecal intubation rate.Results:Four endoscopists were assigned to the quality control group and five to the control group. A total of 1 471 colonoscopic procedures were analyzed. The detection rates of adenoma and polyp in the quality control group increased with feedbacks[13.7% (45/329) VS 7.1% (24/338), χ2=55.796, P<0.001; 48.9% (161/329) VS 40.2% (136/338), χ2=4.071, P=0.044], while there were no significant differences in the control group [9.3% (37/398) VS 9.1% (37/406), χ2=0.329, P=0.566; 33.9% (135/398) VS 33.0% (134/496), χ2=3.616, P=0.057]. The withdrawal time in the quality control group increased with feedbacks[5.9 (3.9, 7.3) min VS 4.1 (2.8, 6.1) min, Z=6.965, P<0.001], while there was no significant difference in this variable in the control group [3.9 (2.7, 6.1) min VS 3.6 (2.6, 5.8) min, Z=1.355, P=0.175]. Conclusion:The intelligent performance measurement system for gastrointestinal endoscopy with feedbacks can monitor and improve the colonoscopic quality.

Objective:
To predict the efficacy of endoscopic tissue adhesives in the treatment of gastric varices in patients with liver cirrhosis by Nomogram model.
Methods:
From August 2014 to September 2017, 158 patients with liver cirrhosis caused esophagogastric variceal bleeding and received endoscopic tissue adhesives treatment at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University were collected. All patients were followed for 12 months. The primary outcome was rebleeding. The factors of rebleeding after endoscopic treatment of esophagogastric varices were analyzed. Nomogram prognostic model was developed and compared with Child-Pugh grading, computed tomography angiography (CTA) and hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) in prognostic accuracy in rebleeding after endoscopic treatment in liver cirrhosis caused esophagogastric varices. Univariate and multivaricate Cox regression analysis, Kaplan-Meier curve and log-rank test were performed for statistical analysis.
Results:
During the follow-up, rebleading occurred in 18 cases (11.4%), 37 cases (23.4%) and 49 cases (31.0%) at 2, 6, and 12 months after endoscopic treatment. The results of univariate Cox regression analysis showed the risk factors of rebleeding after endoscopic treatment of gastric varices included gender, alcoholic liver cirrhosis, diabetes mellitus, Child-Pugh grade (Grade A vs. B or C), extraluminal vessels on CTA (presence vs. absence) HVPG (<16 mmHg vs. ≥16 mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa), extensive portal embolism, esophageal varices, type 2 gastric varices, injection points of tissue adhesive (≤3 points vs. > 3 points), injection volume of tissue adhesive (≤ 3 mL vs. > 3 mL) (hazard ratio (

The study is aimed to create seed materials and dissect the molecular mechanism of sexual propagation of Gastrodia elata. In this research, thirteen characteristics of flowers, flower stem, fruits, seeds and embryo of G.elata f. glauca and G.elata f. elata after bolting at room temperature(RT) and constant temperature(CT, 22 ℃) were determined. It was found that the constant temperature condition could prolong the bolting duration of G.elata and increased the number of flowers, while the variety of G.elata only affected the bolting duration, but had no effect on the number of flowers, and the G.elata f. elata was more likely to bolting than the G.elata f. glauca. The variety of G.elata was the main factor affecting the time of dehiscent fruit of G.elata, the temperature was the main factor affecting the fruits number and fruits diameter, and the constant temperature was more conducive to the fruits shape of G.elata than the room temperature. There was no significant difference in seed phenotype of G.elata varieties, but the seed embryo of G.elata seeds cultivated at constant temperature was fuller than that of G.elata cultivated at room temperature, and temperature had less influence on the seed phenotype of G.elata. But it was interesting to find that temperature and varieties had greater influence on the seed embryo of G.elata, constant temperature cultivation was more conducive to the formation of seed embryo of G.elata, and more the seed embryo of G.elata f. elata was easier to form than the seed embryo of G.elata f. glauca. However, the development of seeds and embryos of G.elata was significantly affected, and the development of seeds and embryos of G.elata f. glauca was more sensitive to temperature than G.elata f. elata. The research suggested that it is advisable for G.elata to produce seed materials by bolting at constant temperature(22 ℃).
