Milk consumption behavior and its impact on bone mineral density among 696 pupils in Hainan Province / 中国学校卫生

Objective@#To investigate the milk drinking behavior and bone mineral density level of pupils in Hainan Province, and to explore the correlation between bone mineral density and milk drinking behavior, in order to provide scientific basis for promoting the healthy development of bones in children and adolescents.@*Methods@#In November 2021, a cross sectional survey including demographic characteristics, milk intake, unhealthy eating behavior, physical activity and sleep was conducted among 696 students from grades 3 to 5 in Sanya and Baisha, Hainan by stratified cluster random sampling, and bone mineral density at the distal 1/3 of the right forearm was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. t-test was used to compare the differences in bone mineral density among different milk drinking behaviors of pupils, and multiple linear regression was used to analyze the correlation between milk consumption and bone mineral density.@*Results@#About 25.3% students consumed milk daily and 13.9% consumed ≥ 300 g of milk daily. The mean bone mineral density at the distal 1/3 of the right forearm was (0.237±0.041)g/cm 2. The bone mineral density was greater in the group with daily milk intake than in the group without daily milk intake [(0.250± 0.037 )(0.204±0.034) g/cm 2 , t=15.00, P <0.01], and the bone mineral density was greater in the group with daily average milk intake ≥300 g than in the group with daily average milk intake <300 g [(0.284±0.036)(0.229±0.037)g/cm 2, t=13.48, P < 0.01 ]. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that daily average milk intake was positively correlated with bone mineral density, with a correlation coefficient ( β=0.020, t=21.46, P <0.01).@*Conclusion@#Milk consumption among pupils is inadequate, and milk drinking behavior has a positive impact on bone mineral density, so effective milk drinking intervention should be carried out to promote children s bone development.

Research progress on FASN and MGLL in the regulation of abnormal lipid metabolism and the relationship between tumor invasion and metastasis / 医学前沿

Tumorigenesis involves metabolic reprogramming and abnormal lipid metabolism, which is manifested by increased endogenous fat mobilization, hypertriglyceridemia, and increased fatty acid synthesis. Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a key enzyme for the de novo synthesis of fatty acids, and monoacylglycerol esterase (MGLL) is an important metabolic enzyme that converts triglycerides into free fatty acids. Both enzymes play an important role in lipid metabolism and are associated with tumor-related signaling pathways, the most common of which is the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway. They can also regulate the immune microenvironment, participate in epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and then regulate tumor invasion and metastasis. Current literature have shown that these two genes are abnormally expressed in many types of tumors and are highly correlated with tumor migration and invasion. This article introduces the structures and functions of FASN and MGLL, their relationship with abnormal lipid metabolism, and the mechanism of the regulation of tumor invasion and metastasis and reviews the research progress of the relationship of FASN and MGLL with tumor invasion and metastasis.

Development and clinical application of weight－adjustable suit for children with dyskinetic cerebral palsy / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

Objective To explore the development and clinical effect of weight_adjustable suit for children with dyskinetic cerebral palsy. Methods Twenty_six cerebral_palsy children with involuntary movement admitted to the Third Hospital Affiliated to Jiamusi University from March to October 2016 were randomly divided into the observa_tion group and the control group,13 cases in each group. The control group was treated with routine rehabilitation trai_ning. The observation group was put on adjustable heavy clothes besides conventional rehabilitation. Before and after treatment,childrenˊs functional independence and gross motor function were assessed and compared by using Wee Punc_tional Independence Measure(Wee_PIM)and Gross Motor Punction Rating Scale(GMPM_88). Results After treat_ment the Wee_PIM score of the control group was(43. 24 ± 5. 58),the GMPM score was(61. 81 ± 9. 46),the Wee_PIM score of the observation group was(50. 21 ± 6. 03),and the GMPM score was(65. 73 ± 10. 17). There were sig_nificant differences between the two groups(P〈0. 05),while the scores of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group,and the difference was significant(t﹦2. 582,2. 346,all P〈0. 05). Conclusions The adjustable heavy suit can effectively improve the functional independence and gross motor function of cerebral palsy children with involuntary movement and their comprehensive ability,and it is worth trying clinically.
