Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(1):53-57
Objective:
To explore the current status and influencing factors of eating behaviors in adolescents, so as to provide a theoretical foundation for health promotion education among adolescents.
Methods:
Based on the database from Survey of Chinese Family Health Index (2021), by a random number table method, 1 065 teenagers were selected from the provincial capitals of 22 provinces and 5 autonomous regions in China, as well as 4 municipalities directly under the central government. A general characteristic questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Short Form of the Family Health Scale (FHS-SF), 10-item Short Version of the Big Five Personality(BFP-10), Content-based Media Exposure Scale (CM-E) and Sakata Eating Behavior Scale Short Form(EBS-SF) were used to collect information. Multivariate stepwise linear regression analysis was employed to identify and analyze related factors of eating behaviors among adolescents. Receiver operating characteristic was used to validate the predictive ability of the EBS-SF score for overweight and obesity among adolescents.
Results:
The average scores of BFI-10,C-ME, FHS-SF, PHQ-9 and EBS-SF were (33.08±4.64)(19.20±4.55)(38.48±6.65)(6.09±5.63)(16.75±4.36), respectively. Multivariate linear regression showed that family type (other types), agreeableness, conscientiousness, family health and depression were the main related factors of EBS-SF scores among adolescents( B =2.61,-0.42,0.20,-0.11,0.23, P <0.05).The analysis of receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the EBS-SF scores had a good ability in predicting obesity among male adolescents ( AUC= 0.73, P <0.01).
Conclusions
Family type, big five personality, family health,depression are the related factors of eating behaviors among adolescents. EBS-SF scores are predictive of obesity in adolescents, which would provide a new perspective for promoting healthy eating habits among adolescents.

BACKGROUND:In clinical practice,the anterior superior iliac spine and posterior superior iliac spine are usually located by palpation,and the tilt of the pelvis is determined by visual observation method or photogrammetry.Among them,the visual observation method can only have qualitative conclusions,and its reliability is poor.The photogrammetry is not only more convenient and fast,but also can give more accurate quantitative data,which is one of the best clinical evaluation methods.However,there are no studies on the reliability of pelvic posture assessment using photogrammetry in China. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the pelvic posture by visual observation method and photogrammetry,and to compare the reliability level of the two methods to guide clinical application. METHODS:Forty-five healthy subjects were selected and red marks were made at the bilateral anterior superior iliac spine and posterior superior iliac spine.Pelvic posture was photographed from the front,back(coronal plane),left,and right(sagittal plane).The left and right pelvic tilt angles(α,β angles)were selected from the front and back views,which represented the angle between the bilateral anterior superior iliac spine line or the bilateral posterior superior iliac spine line and the horizontal line.The anterior and posterior pelvic tilt angles(γ,θ angles)were selected from the side view,which represented the angle between the ipsilateral anterior superior iliac spine and posterior superior iliac spine line and the horizontal plane,indicating the sagittal plane pelvic tilt.Evaluation methods included visual observation method and photogrammetry.Two evaluators independently evaluated the pelvic α,β,γ,θ angles using the visual observation method first,and then recorded the pelvic α,β,γ,θ angles using the photogrammetry.After a one-month interval,the visual observation method and photogrammetry were performed again,and the pelvic α,β,γ,θ angles were recorded.The intraclass correlation coefficients were used to analyze the data obtained from the two evaluation methods and the before-and-after measurements:0.90-0.99 as an excellent correlation,0.80-0.89 as a good correlation,0.70-0.79 as a moderate correlation,and≤0.69 as a poor correlation.The standard error of measurement and the minimal detectable change with 95%confidence intervals were calculated to evaluate the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The interrater intraclass correlation coefficients of the visual observation method and photogrammetry were as follows:anterior view:0.682 and 0.718,posterior view:0.513 and 0.867,left view:0.739 and 0.960,and right view:0.756 and 0.971.The visual observation method showed poor correlation between the anterior and posterior views and moderate correlation between the left and right views,while the photogrammetry showed moderate correlation for the anterior view,good correlation for the posterior view,and excellent correlation for the left and right views.The standard error values of measurement were as follows:anterior view:3.266 and 1.625,posterior view:4.278 and 1.763,left view:5.935 and 1.787,and right view:5.723 and 1.698.The minimal detectable change values with 95%confidence intervals were as follows:anterior view:9.053 and 4.504,posterior view:11.858 and 4.887,left view:16.451 and 4.953,and right view:15.863 and 4.707.(2)The interrater intraclass correlation coefficients of the visual observation method and photogrammetry were as follows:anterior view:0.452 and 0.723,posterior view:0.483 and 0.904,left view:0.518 and 0.955,and right view:0.657 and 0.968.The visual observation method showed poor correlation in all four directions,while the photogrammetry showed moderate correlation for the anterior view and excellent correlation for the other three directions.The standard error values of measurement were as follows:anterior view:5.651 and 1.610,posterior view:4.237 and 1.523,left view:7.322 and 1.891,and right view:6.509 and 1.781.The minimal detectable change values with 95%confidence intervals were as follows:anterior view:15.664 and 4.463,posterior view:11.744 and 4.222,left view:20.296 and 5.242,and right view:18.042 and 4.937.(3)These results confirm that the sagittal and coronal plane photogrammetries have good intrarater and interrater reliability for evaluating pelvic posture,especially with the use of the photogrammetry,which has good data stability.This method is simple,fast,efficient,accurate,low-cost,and does not cause X-ray damage,and can qualitatively and quantitatively reflect the actual situation of the patient's pelvis,making it suitable for clinical use.

Objective:
To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of varicella outbreaks in primary and middle schools, and to establish a risk predictive model, so as to provide scientific guidance for the prevention of varicella outbreaks in schools.
Methods:
Based on a nested case-control study, primary and middle schools in 4 districts of Shanghai (Yangpu District and Jingan District) and Hangzhou (Xiaoshan District and Linping District) from January to December 2023 were selected to observe the status of varicella outbreaks. Associated factors of varicella outbreaks were investigated and used for establishing the predictive model, which was evaluated by the Hosmer-Lemeshow(H-L) goodness of fit test, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, Calibration curve, decision curve analysis (DCA).
Results:
A total of 98 varicella outbreaks were included, with 195 schools without varicella outbreaks during the same period as controls. Eight factors, including the availability of warm water in restroom, availability of hand soap in restroom, average class size, duration of student attendance at school per day, presence of a fulltime school doctor, hesitancy of the school principal towards varicella vaccination, and rates of first and second doses of varicella vaccination, were identified as potential factors for school varicella outbreaks, with statistically significant differences (χ2/Z=10.01, 20.49, 17.43, 9.74, 32.17, 6.60, 2.20, 3.39, P<0.05). The 8 variables above were employed to construct a risk predictive model, and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test yielded a χ2 value of 5.863 (P>0.05); the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.846 (95%CI=0.799-0.893); Calibration curve analysis indicated good consistency between predicted and actual values of the model. DCA demonstrated favorable predictive performance of the model over a wide range.
Conclusions
The predictive model for school varicella outbreaks demonstrates satisfactory accuracy and efficacy. It suggested to make good use of this prediction model and take relevant measures to reduce the risk of varicella transmission in schools.

kidney deficiency and blood stasis are believed to be the key pathogenesis of recurrent implantation failure (RIF), and therefore, it is proposed to take kidney-supplementing and blood-invigorating as the basic treatment method, and use it by stages to assist the controlled superovulation program of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). The focus should be put on nourishing kidney yin, soothing the liver and invigorating blood during down-regulation period, using kidney yin-nourishing medicinals and modified Qinghao Biejia Decoction (青蒿鳖甲汤). During the ovulation induction period, the focus should be put on nourishing kidney yang, replenishing blood, and promoting blood circulation, with self-made Bushen Culuan Formula (补肾促卵方) in modifications. After transplantation, it is suggested to put focus on tonifying the kidneys and replenishing essence, and self-made Wuzi Yanzong Guchong Decoction (五子衍宗固冲汤) in modifications can be used. At the same time, fetal protection treatment should be carried out for pregnant women, and modified Shou Tai Pill (寿胎丸) can be used to tonify the kidneys and calm the fetus.

Objective:To explore the application effect of LEARNS(L: listen; E: establish; A: adopt; R: reinforce; N: name; S: strengthen) model in health education for patients undergoing coronary computed tomography angiography(CCTA) examination, so as to provide basis for improving image quality and optimizing examination process.Methods:One hundred and sixteen patients who underwent CCTA examination at the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from April to September 2023 were selected as the research subjects by convenience sampling method. A non-concurrent controlled study was conducted, with 58 patients examined from April to June 2023 as the control group to implement conventional health education, and 58 patients examined from July to September 2023 as the observation group to implement LEARNS model health education. The differences in examination knowledge scores, anxiety level, coronary artery image quality, examination duration and health education satisfaction between the two groups were compared.Results:There were 31 males and 27 females in the control group, aged (51.97 ± 9.39) years old. There were 30 males and 28 females in the observation group, aged (53.48 ± 8.95) years old. There was no significant difference in the examination knowledge scores and anxiety level before the intervention between the two groups ( P>0.05). After the intervention, the examination knowledge score of the patients in the observation group was (12.95 ± 1.15) points, which was higher than (9.02 ± 1.55) points in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t=-15.53, P<0.05). The acceptance rate of image quality in the observation group was 96.6% (56/58), which was higher than 87.9% (51/58), but the difference was not statistically significant ( χ2=1.93, P>0.05). The proportion of patients with level 1 image quality in the observation group was 81.0%(47/58), which was higher than 55.2%(32/58) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=8.93, P<0.05). The total score of health education satisfaction in the observation group was (39.81 ± 1.81) points, which was higher than (31.19 ± 3.10) points in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t=-18.27, P<0.05). The score of anxiety scale and duration of examination in the observation group were (36.81 ± 2.12) points and (6.72 ± 1.02) min respectively, which were significantly lower than (41.12 ± 2.46) points and (9.40 ± 1.49) min in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t=10.11, 11.29, both P<0.05). Conclusions:LEARNS model is used for health education of patients undergoing CCTA examination, which helps to improve patients′ knowledge level, health education satisfaction and coronary image quality. It can also alleviate examination anxiety and shorten examination time. It is worthy of promotion.
