ObjectiveTo assess the level of health literacy and its influencing factors among middle school students aged 12‒18 years in Jing’an District, Shanghai, so as to provide a solid scientific foundation for further developing more targeted intervention measures. MethodsA stratified cluster random sampling method was used to randomly select 4 middle schools in Jing’an District, Shanghai from November to December 2023, and conducted a health literacy questionnaire survey on non-graduating middle and high school students, respectively. The2023 Survey on the Status of Health Literacy among Middle School Students in Jing’an District, Shanghai was adopted, which consisted of two parts: health literacy and basic information. Health literacy was divided into three dimensions: health knowledge and concept literacy, healthy lifestyle and behavior literacy, and health skill literacy. Three dimensions could be categorized into six types of health literacy issue: scientific health literacy, infectious disease prevention and control literacy, chronic disease prevention and control literacy, safety and first aid literacy, basic health literacy, and health information literacy. ResultsA total of 1 161 middle school students were enrolled into this study, including 571 males and 570 females. The overall health literacy level of middle school students was 33.51%, with 34.81% among middle school students and 31.69% among high school students, respectively. Results of logistic regression analysis showed that health knowledge acquisition and awareness, as well as application frequency of health knowledge, were the influencing factors for the overall health literacy level among middle school students (P<0.05). The degree of family attention to health maintenance, health knowledge acquisition and awareness, and application frequency of health knowledge were the main influencing factors for the three dimensions and literacy of six types of health issues among middle school students (P<0.05). ConclusionThe levels of different types of health literacy among middle school students in Jing’an District are uneven, with the highest being safety and first aid literacy and the lowest being basic health literacy. It is recommended to take targeted measures to comprehensively improve the health literacy level of middle school students.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the early effectiveness of navigation-free robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) compared to traditional TKA in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis combined with extra-articular deformities. METHODS: The clinical data of 30 patients with knee osteoarthritis combined with extra-articular deformities who met the selection criteria between June 2019 and January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Fifteen patients underwent CORI navigation-free robot-assisted TKA and intra-articular osteotomy (robot group) and 15 patients underwent traditional TKA and intra-articular osteotomy (traditional group). There was no significant difference in age, gender, body mass index, affected knee side, extra-articular deformity angle, deformity position, deformity type, and preoperative knee range of motion, American Knee Society (KSS) knee score and KSS function score, and lower limb alignment deviation between the two groups ( P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and complications of the two groups were recorded and compared. The knee range of motion and lower limb alignment deviation were recorded before operation and at 6 months after operation, and the knee joint function was evaluated by KSS knee score and function score. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in operation time between the two groups ( P>0.05); the intraoperative blood loss in the robot group was significantly less than that in the traditional group ( P<0.05). Patients in both groups were followed up 6-12 months, with an average of 8.7 months. The incisions of all patients healed well, and there was no postoperative complication such as thrombosis or infection. At 6 months after operation, X-ray examination showed that the position of the prosthesis was good in both groups, and there was no loosening or dislocation of the prosthesis. The knee joint range of motion, the lower limb alignment deviation, and the KSS knee score and KSS function score significantly improved in both groups ( P<0.05) compared to preoperative ones. The changes of lower limb alignment deviation and KSS function score between pre- and post-operation in the robot group were significantly better than those in the traditional group ( P<0.05), while the changes of other indicators between pre- and post-operation in the two groups were not significant ( P>0.05). CONCLUSION Compared to traditional TKA, navigation-free robot-assisted TKA for knee osteoarthritis with extra-articular deformities results in less intraoperative blood loss, more precise reconstruction of lower limb alignment, and better early effectiveness. However, long-term effectiveness require further investigation.

Objective:To comprehensively search, evaluate and summarize the relevant evidence of early ambulation in patients with total knee arthroplasty (TKA), so as to provide evidence-based basis for the nursing practice of early ambulation in patients with TKA.Methods:Clinical decisions, best practice manuals, guidelines, systematic reviews, expert consensus and evidence summaries for early postoperative ambulation of TKA patients were searched by computer on PubMed, Web of Science, BMJ Best Practice, Cochrane Library, UpToDate, OVID, CINAHL, Embase, Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Centre for Evidence-based Health Care, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, China Biology Medicine disc, Guidelines International Network, National Guideline Clearinghouse, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, Canadian Medical Association Clinical Practice Guideline, Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network, American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the databases to March 31, 2023. Four nursing graduate students trained in evidence-based nursing systems independently evaluated the quality of the included literature and divided the evidence levels according to the JBI Evidence Pre Grading System (2014 edition) .Results:A total of 15 articles were included, including four clinical decision papers, three guidelines, six expert consensus papers, one evidence summary and one systematic review. According to the judgment of professionals, 23 pieces of best evidence were formed from seven aspects, including the director of ambulation, evaluation before ambulation, ambulation planning, ambulation timing, ambulation content, ambulation evaluation and health education.Conclusions:The best evidence of early postoperative ambulation of patients with TKA summarized in this study is scientific and practical, which can provide evidence-based basis for clinical nursing work.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of treatment of primary orbital varix via venous embolization therapy approach. Methods From January 2007 to January 2015,the clinical data of 12 patients with primary orbital varix were analyzed retrospectively. All the micro-catheters were implanted via the inferior petrosal sinus approach. The microcoils and Onyx18 were used to embolize the primary orbital varix. Four patients were embolized with micro-coils only, three were embolized with Onyx, and five were embolized with microcoil + Onyx. Results After successful catheterization, the lesions were totally embolized in 12 patients. The symptoms of postural exophthalmos disappeared and the pain was relieved,the depressed symptom of eyeball disappeared in 10 cases, and two patients were relieved partially ( single material embolization) . Nine patients were followed up for 6 to 24 months. The orbital DSA,MRI or CT re-examination was performed. The thrombosis of orbital varices within the lesions was observed and no cavity was found. One of the patients suffered from limited lateral eyeball abduction. Another three were lost to follow up. Conclusion The embolization treatment of primary orbital varix is safe, effective, and convenient via inferior petrosal sinus approach.
