Objective: To explore the relationship between the ratio of dietary vitamin A (VitA) to body weight and hypertension among children, so as to provide a reference for blood pressure control through dietary nutritional interventions and childhood hypertension prevention. Methods: Utilizing the baseline survey and followup sample data from the Healthy Children Cohort established in urban and rural areas of Chongqing from 2014 to 2019, structured quantitative dietary questionnaire and selfdesigned questionnaire were used to investigate the information of dietary intake and socioeconomic characteristics of 15 279 children, as well as blood pressure, height, weight measurement. The ratio of dietary VitA to body weight was divided into four groups based on quartiles [≤P25(Q1), >P25~P50(Q2), >P50~P75(Q3), >P75(Q4)]. Generalized linear regression models and Logistic regression models were used to analyze the correlation between ratio of dietary VitA to body weight with blood pressure levels and prevalence of hypertension. Results: The results of the 2014 baseline survey indicated that, after adjusting for confounding factors such as demographic indicators and nutritional intake, significant differences were observed in systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and mean arterial pressure (MAP) among different groups categorized by the ratio of dietary VitA to body weight (F=157.57, 44.71, 95.92, P<0.01). The baseline ratio of dietary VitA to body weight in children exhibited a negative correlation with DBP, SBP and MAP at baseline and in 2019[baseline: β(95%CI)=-0.65(-0.89--0.42), -0.22(-0.42--0.01), -0.36(-0.56--0.16); 2019: β(95%CI)=-0.77(-1.34--0.19), -0.62(-1.21--0.02), -0.77(-1.34--0.19), P＜0.05]. Compared to Q1 group, the risk of hypertension decreased among children in Q4 at baseline and followup in 2019 [OR(95%CI)=0.63(0.49-0.81), 0.18(0.08-0.42), P<0.01]. Conclusions The ratio of dietary VitA to body weight is significantly negatively correlated with blood pressure levels among children, and dietary VitA deficiency is an independent risk factor for hypertension among children. Measures should be taken to actively adjust childrens dietary nutrition and reduce the risk of childhood hypertension.

Persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN) is a common and critical disease in the neonatus characterized by persistent pulmonary hypertension and hypoxemia, with a high mortality.Except for intubation and ventilator support, recognized treatments often require the application of pulmonary vasodilators drugs, such as inhaled nitric oxide, Sildenafil, etc, each with its own advantages.In recent years, L-citrulline, as a potential therapeutic option, has shown huge potential in PPHN treatment.The purpose of this review is to explore the possible potential of L-citrulline in the treatment of PPHN in terms of therapeutic mechanism, pharmacokinetics, current status of research and future perspectives.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of oral-nasal oxygen supply mouth guard in painless gastroscopy for snoring patients.Methods:The snoring patients who underwent painless gastroscopy at two Endoscopy Centers of Shanghai East Hospital, Tongji University in July 2022 were randomly divided into the observation group (using oral-nasal oxygen supply mouth guard) and the control group (using ordinary nasal oxygen tube and mouth guard). Parameters such as the wearing time and the removal time of the mouth guard, lowest pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2), incidence of hypoxemia, and the satisfaction of medical staff were compared between the two groups. Results:The wearing time of mouth guard was 11.63±0.84 seconds and the removal time was 5.33±0.76 seconds in the observation group ( n=40), which were lower than those in the control group ( n=47) (14.91±1.21 seconds, t=-14.463, P<0.001; 10.38±0.80 seconds, t=-30.095, P<0.001). The wearing satisfaction score was 9.80±0.61, the lowest SpO 2 was (96.70±3.42)%, the removal satisfaction score was 9.75±0.67, and the anesthesiologists' satisfaction score was 9.20±1.42 in the observation group, which were higher than those in the control group [7.70±0.93, t=12.209, P<0.001; (94.06±3.72)%, t=3.417, P=0.001; 7.96±0.98, t=9.803, P<0.001; 8.13±1.35, t=3.615, P=0.001] with significant difference. There was no significant difference in the incidence of hypoxemia [10.00% (4/40) VS 14.89% (7/47), χ2=0.130, P=0.718] and endoscopic physician satisfaction score (9.30±0.97 VS 9.02±1.31, t=1.112, P=0.269) between the two groups. Conclusion:The oral-nasal oxygen supply mouth guard is easy to wear and remove, effectively reducing SpO 2 fluctuations during painless gastroscopy for snoring patients. It can enhance medical staff satisfaction with high clinical value.

Chronic fatigue syndrome （CFS） is a heterogeneous disease with dysfunction in multiple systems and multiple organs. Its etiology and pathogenesis have not been fully clarified， and its treatment also lacks specificity. The key to studying CFS is developing animal models that reflect the underlying mechanisms and etiology of CFS. The existing CFS modeling methods are complicated and not unified. By sorting out relevant literature，the present study evaluated the modeling methods，modeling standards，mechanisms， and clinical coincidence of the immune model，the stress model， and the disease-syndrome combination model in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. The immune model is mainly constructed from the perspective of pathophysiology， with easy operation and wide investigation， which can simulate the pathological characteristics of CFS to ensure pathogenesis research，but the experimental repeatability is general. Stress modeling is a common method for a variety of neuropsychiatric diseases，including CFS. Many different stressors can be employed to investigate the etiology of CFS， but their effects are unpredictable. Compared with the two western medicine models mentioned above，the TCM disease-syndrome combination model integrates modern medicine with TCM theory，with high clinical coincidence and great practical value. However，the TCM disease-syndrome combination model of CFS is still in the exploratory stage with a few types of models，which needs to be further improved， aiming to establish scientific，reasonable，simple， and efficient animal models to provide support for exploring the etiology，pathogenesis， and new treatment ideas of CFS.

Conclusions The proportion of mental health literacy levels meeting the target is high among residents in Jiaxing City, and gender, educational level, occupation and marital status are factors affecting mental health literacy levels.

This article reports a case of adrenal tumor in a reproductive-aged woman with hyperandrogenism misdiagnosed as polycystic ovary syndrome. The patient presented with menstrual disorder, elevated testosterone levels, and polycystic ovaries, initially diagnosed as polycystic ovary syndrome. Menstrual regularity was achieved after intermittent use of ethinylestradiol/cyproterone acetate and progesterone. Five years later, during a physical examination, a mass was discovered in the right adrenal gland, accompanied by elevated testosterone levels, polycystic ovaries, obesity, and insulin resistance. Laparoscopic resection of the right adrenal tumor was performed, and the pathological diagnosis was adrenal cortical oncocytoma. Postoperatively, menstrual regularity was restored, and testosterone levels normalized. This case highlights the importance of considering adrenal tumors secreting androgens in patients clinically diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome, and emphasizes the need for regular adrenal imaging follow-up.

Objective:To compare the role and efficacy of serum Helicobacter pylori ( HP) antibody combined with pepsinogen (PG) (ABC method), serum PG combined with gastrin-17 (G-17) (new ABC method) and a new gastric cancer screening scoring system for early gastric cancer screening in healthy people. Methods:Serological examinations were performed on healthy people who underwent physical examination and gastroscopy at the Physical Examination Center of Shanghai Songjiang District Central Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021. The population were divided into low-risk population, medium-risk population and high-risk population based on the above three primary screening methods for gastric cancer. Using gastroscopy and biopsy pathology as the gold standard, the ratio of each risk stratification and the detection rate of gastric cancer of the three screening methods were calculated. Advantages and disadvantages of the three methods were evaluated.Results:A total of 3 199 people who completed physical examination and gastroscopy were included in the study. Ten cases (0.31%) of esophageal cancer were detected by endoscopy, all of whom were early esophageal cancer. Thirty-seven cases (1.16%) of gastric cancer were detected,and the detection rate of early gastric cancer was 86.49%(32/37). The three gastric cancer screening methods were used to evaluate the risk of gastric cancer. According to ABC method, there were 1 853 cases (7.92%) in the low-risk group, 1 339 cases (41.86%) in the medium-risk group, and 7 cases (0.22%) in the high-risk group. The detection rates of gastric cancer were 0.97% (18/1 853), 1.42% (19/1 339), and 0.00%, respectively. According to the new ABC method, there were 2 362 cases (73.84%) in the low-risk group, 804 cases (25.13%) in the medium-risk group, and 33 cases (1.03%) in the high-risk group. The detection rates of gastric cancer were 1.14% (27/2 362), 1.24% (10/804), and 0.00%, respectively. According to the new gastric cancer screening scoring system, there were 1 448 cases (45.26%) in the low-risk group, 1 213 cases (37.92%) in the medium-risk group and 538 cases (16.82%) in the high-risk group. The detection rates of gastric cancer were 0.28% (4/1 448), 1.32% (16/1 213) and 3.16% (17/538), respectively. The detection rate of gastric cancer in the medium- and high-risk groups in total was significantly higher than that in the low-risk group with significant difference ( χ 2=17.935, P<0.001). The ROC curve showed that the AUC of the ABC method, the new ABC method and the new gastric cancer screening scoring system were 0.546, 0.503 and 0.760, respectively. The AUC of the new gastric cancer screening scoring system was significantly higher than those of the ABC method and the new ABC method, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.001). Conclusion:The detection rate of gastric cancer in the medium- and high-risk groups of the new gastric cancer screening scoring system is higher than that of the low-risk group, and the missed diagnosis rate of the new gastric cancer screening scoring system is lower than those of the ABC method and the new ABC method. The screening score is of high value for early gastric cancer screening in the healthy population.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in very preterm infants(VPI), and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of BPD in VPI.Methods:A prospective multicenter study was designed to collect the clinical data of VPI in department of neonatology of 28 hospitals in 7 regions from September 2019 to December 2020.According to the continuous oxygen dependence at 28 days after birth, VPI were divided into non BPD group and BPD group, and the risk factors of BPD in VPI were analyzed.Results:A total of 2 514 cases of VPI including 1 364 cases without BPD and 1 150 cases with BPD were enrolled.The incidence of BPD was 45.7%.The smaller the gestational age and weight, the higher the incidence of BPD( P<0.001). Compared with non BPD group, the average birth age, weight and cesarean section rate in BPD group were lower, and the incidence of male infants, small for gestational age and 5-minute apgar score≤7 were higher( P<0.01). In BPD group, the incidences of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(NRDS), hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus, retinopathy of prematurity, feeding intolerance, extrauterine growth restriction, grade Ⅲ~Ⅳ intracranial hemorrhage, anemia, early-onset and late-onset sepsis, nosocomial infection, parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis were higher( P<0.05), the use of pulmonary surfactant(PS), postnatal hormone exposure, anemia and blood transfusion were also higher, and the time of invasive and non-invasive mechanical ventilation, oxygen use and total hospital stay were longer( P<0.001). The time of starting enteral nutrition, cumulative fasting days, days of reaching total enteral nutrition, days of continuous parenteral nutrition, days of reaching 110 kcal/(kg·d) total calorie, days of reaching 110 kcal/(kg·d) oral calorie were longer and the breastfeeding rate was lower in BPD group than those in non BPD group( P<0.001). The cumulative doses of amino acid and fat emulsion during the first week of hospitalization were higher in BPD group( P<0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that NRDS, invasive mechanical ventilation, age of reaching total enteral nutrition, anemia and blood transfusion were the independent risk factors for BPD in VPI, and older gestational age was the protective factor for BPD. Conclusion:Strengthening perinatal management, avoiding premature delivery and severe NRDS, shortening the time of invasive mechanical ventilation, paying attention to enteral nutrition management, reaching whole intestinal feeding as soon as possible, and strictly mastering the indications of blood transfusion are very important to reduce the incidence of BPD in VPI.
