RESUMEN
Objective@#To explore the pattern of change of axial length/curvatrue radius ratio (AL/CR) and associated factors in primary and secondary school students in Yunnan, so as to provide scientific basis and prospective guidance for early myopia intervention and control.@*Methods@#A total of 685 students from grades 2 to 3 and grade 7 in 2 cities/counties in Yunnan Province were selected by multi stage stratified random cluster sampling method in 2020. All the participants were followed up twice with questionnaire of myopia related factors, uncorrected distance visual acuity, and refractive parameter measurement from October,2021 and March,2023,respectivelty. The distribution and change of AL/CR in different classes and groups were analyzed, and the influencing factos of AL/CR cumulative progression were explored using generalized linear model.@*Results@#AL/CR ratio in primary school students was (2.95±0.09) at baseline, increased to (2.99±0.11) at the first follow up and (3.04±0.12) at the second follow up. AL/CR ratio in middle school students(3.08±0.13) at baseline, increased to (3.12±0.15) at the first follow up and (3.15±0.14) at the second follow up. The generalized linear model showed that after controlling for environmental factors, ethnicity ( β =-0.017) , cumulative progression of the SE ( β =-0.027) influenced the changes of AL/CR ratio among the primary school students, whereas the changes of AL/CR ratio were associated with baseline AL ( β =-0.005), baseline corneal curvatrue radius ( β =0.032) and cumulative progression of SE( β =-0.035) among middle school students ( P <0.05).@*Conclusions@#The AL/CR ratio of primary and secondary school students in Yunnan can be used to judge different refractive status types, but its variation is not only related to SE progression, but also affected by different ethnic groups and baseline ocular biological parameters. so the value of AL/CR application in assessing the progression of myopia needs to be further confirmed.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the influential factors of patients' expectations for clinical decision-making during digestive endoscopy.Methods:A total of 120 patients who underwent digestive endoscopy were admitted to the Endoscopy Center of Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from January 2020 to January 2022. Their general information was collected, and their clinical decision-making expectations were evaluated using the Control Preference Scale (CPS). The influential factors of clinical decision-making expectations were determined using multiple linear regression analysis.Results:The total CPS score for 120 patients undergoing digestive endoscopy was (50.72 ± 5.48) points, including (14.12 ± 1.48) points for information needs, (25.17 ± 3.52) points for communication needs, and (11.43 ± 2.04) points for decision-making needs. Univariate analysis showed that the CPS score of patients undergoing digestive endoscopy was related to gender, age, marital status, educational level, number of children, and type of visit ( t = 2.68, 2.61, 2.82, 3.28, 3.61, 2.39, all P < 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender, age, educational level, and type of visit were the influential factors of clinical decision-making expectations for patients undergoing digestive endoscopy ( β = -0.71, 1.07, 0.53, -1.15, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Gender, age, educational level, and type of visit are influential factors of patients' expectations for clinical decision-making during digestive endoscopy. Patients have a clear need for communication during clinical decision-making, and medical staff can strengthen communication with patients, correctly guiding them to participate in clinical decision-making expectations.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the incidence and risk factors of ultrafiltration failure (UFF) in patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).Methods:The clinical data of 65 patients undergoing CAPD at the Hubei Provincial Corps Hospital of Chinese People's Armed Police Forces and the General Hospital of Central Theater Command from January 2016 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical data included patient history, smoking history, duration of peritoneal dialysis, incidence of peritonitis, levels of hemoglobin, albumin, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, total cholesterol, and triglyceride. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were conducted to investigate the correlation between UFF and various indicators in patients undergoing CAPD.Results:Among the 65 patients undergoing CAPD, the incidence of UFF was 35.4% (23/65). There were significant differences in duration of peritoneal dialysis, history of peritonitis, history of type 2 diabetes mellitus, serum albumin, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglyceride between patients with UFF and those without UFF ( t = -5.05, χ2 = 11.51, 6.83, t = 5.91, -3.28, -2.83, all P < 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that albumin was negatively correlated with UFF ( r = -1.06, P < 0.05), while duration of peritoneal dialysis, level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and peritonitis were positively correlated with UFF ( r = 0.43, 2.20, 1.67, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Peritoneal dialysis duration, peritonitis, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol are risk factors for UFF in patients undergoing CAPD, while albumin is a protective factor against UFF in these patients.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the risk factors for recurrence of benign vocal cord lesions after microsurgery.Methods:The clinical data of 2 214 patients with benign vocal cord lesions who underwent laryngeal microsurgery at the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University from April 2013 to April 2022 were collected. The data, including sex, age, drinking history, smoking history, unilateral and bilateral lesions, and diagnosis, were recorded. These patients were divided into six groups according to admission diagnosis: polyps, Reinke's edema, leukoplakia, granulomas, cysts, and other benign lesions. All patients were followed up for 0-115 months, with a median follow-up time of 55 months. The Kaplan-Meier curve was used to determine whether there was any difference in the recurrence rate of benign vocal cord lesions among groups after surgical treatment. The Cox regression model was used to analyze the risk factors for the recurrence of benign vocal cord lesions after surgical treatment.Results:Out of the 2 214 patients, there were 1 953 cases of polyps (88.21%), 41 cases of granulomas (1.85%), 67 cases of cysts (3.03%), 87 cases of leukoplakia (3.93%), 34 cases of Reinke's edema (1.54%), and 32 cases of other benign lesions (1.45%). The recurrence rate for benign vocal cord lesions was 4.86% (95/1 953) in the polyp group, 31.70% (13/41) in the granuloma group, 14.94% (13/87) in the leukoplakia group, 2.98% (2/67) in the cysts group, 8.82% (3/34) in the Reinke's edema group, and 9.37% (3/32) in the other benign lesions group. Univariate analysis showed that bilateral lesions (95% CI 6.899-17.289, P < 0.001), smoking history (95% CI 1.282-2.564, P = 0.001), and alcohol consumption (95% CI 1.173-2.346, P = 0.001) were significantly associated with the recurrence of benign vocal cord lesions. The recurrence rate for benign vocal cord lesions in the leukoplakia group (95% CI 1.375-27.011, P = 0.017) and granuloma group (95% CI 3.053-60.980, P = 0.001) was significantly higher than that in the cysts group. Multivariate analysis of the risk factors for postoperative recurrence of benign vocal cord lesions showed that patients who had bilateral lesions (95% CI 6.680-16.900, P < 0.001) and a history of smoking (95% CI 1.572-16.157, P = 0.007) had a higher risk of recurrence of benign vocal cord lesions compared with those without bilateral lesions and a history of smoking. Granulomas were found to be significantly associated with postoperative recurrence of benign vocal cord lesions (95% CI 4.691-97.667, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Bilateral lesions and smoking are independent risk factors for the recurrence of benign vocal cord lesions after microsurgery. Granuloma is strongly associated with the postoperative recurrence of benign vocal cord lesions.

RESUMEN
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The identification and understanding of dietary factors and other characteristics that influence gestational weight gain can contribute to the formulation of strategies to promote healthy eating habits before and during pregnancy. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between dietary patterns, sociodemographic and obstetric characteristics, and health-related behaviors in pregnant women. DESIGN AND SETTING: A cross-sectional study was conducted on women undergoing prenatal care in the Unified Health System of Colombo, Paraná, Brazil, from February 2018 to September 2019. METHOD: A weekly food frequency questionnaire was administered, and dietary patterns were identified through factor analysis. Median regression models were constructed to identify the associations between dietary pattern scores and variables. RESULTS: Complete data were obtained from 495 pregnant women. Three dietary patterns were identified: 1) "healthy," with higher factor loadings for the weekly consumption of raw vegetables, cooked vegetables, and fresh fruits; 2) "Western," including soft drinks or artificial juice, candies, milk, and dairy products, and processed cold meat; and 3) "traditional," beans and meat. Pregnant women aged 30 years or older (coefficient [Coef.] 0.86, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.38-1.33) with moderate/intense physical activity (Coef. 0.32, 95% CI 0.02-0.62) had higher adherence to the "healthy" pattern. Adolescents and smokers adhered more to the "traditional" pattern (Coef. 0.17, 95% CI 0.01-0.33). CONCLUSION: Age, smoking status, and physical activity were associated with dietary patterns in pregnant women.

RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the expression of stanniocalcin-2 (STC-2) and cellular-mesenchymal epithelial transition factor (C-met) in tumor tissues of cervical cancer patients and their clinical significance.Methods:A total of 110 cervical cancer patients were selected in Foshan First People′s Hospital from January 2014 to December 2018. Patients′ cancer tissue samples and normal tissue samples were collected during modified radical resection to determine and compare the expression levels of STC-2 mRNA and C-met mRNA in the two tissues, and to analyze the correlation between the expression levels of STC-2, C-met and the clinicopathological characteristics of the patients as well as the multivariate analysis of tumor metastasis and recurrence in the patients. The correlation between the expression of STC-2 and C-met and the time of postoperative tumor metastasis and recurrence in cervical cancer patients were analyzed after 24 months of follow-up.Results:The expression levels of C-met mRNA and STC-2 mRNA in cancer tissues were higher than those in adjacent normal tissues: 4.51 ± 1.21 vs. 3.97 ± 1.14, 2.57 ± 0.21 vs. 2.12 ± 0.24, there were statistical differences ( t = 3.41, 14.80, P<0.05). The expression of STC-2 and C-met in cancer tissues had no significant difference with age, pathological type, federation international of gynecology and obstetrics (FIGO) stage and tumor size ( P>0.05), but had significant difference with tumor recurrence or metastasis ( P<0.05). The results of Logistic multivariate analysis showed that vascular emboli, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage, depth of tumor invasion, C-met expression and STC-2 expression were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of cervical cancer patients ( P<0.05). The expression of STC-2 and C-met were negatively correlated with the time of tumor metastasis in patients with cervical cancer ( r = - 0.663, P<0.001; r = - 0.747, P<0.001). Conclusions:The expression levels of STC-2 and C-met in cancer tissues of cervical cancer patients are higher than those in adjacent normal tissues, and the expression levels of STC-2 and C-met are negatively correlated with the time of metastasis. The expression of C-met, the expression of STC-2, vascular emboli, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage, and the depth of tumor invasion are all independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of cervical cancer patients.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the correlation between sputum culture results and serum levels of C-reactive protein, amyloid A, and procalcitonin in patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD).Methods:The clinical data of 131 older adult patients with AECOPD who received treatment in the Affiliated Hospital of Shaoxing University between January 2019 and January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to sputum culture results, these patients were divided into a sputum culture positive group ( n = 52) and a sputum culture negative group ( n = 79). The sputum of patients was collected aseptically for isolation and identification of pathogens. The general data [age, gender, history of smoking, underlying diseases (hypertension, diabetes mellitus, coronary heart disease), albumin level, mechanical ventilation, method of sputum suction, duration of antibiotics medication, length of hospital stay] were recorded for each group. The risk factors for positive sputum culture were analyzed using binary logistic regression techniques. The efficiency of serum levels of C-reactive protein, amyloid A, and procalcitonin for predicting positive sputum culture was analyzed using the receiver operating characteristic curve. Results:There were 67 strains of pathogens isolated from 52 older adult patients with positive sputum culture of AECOPD. The main pathogens were Gram-negative bacteria (67.16%) [Klebsiella pneumonia (31.34%)], followed by Gram-positive bacteria (25.37%) and fungi (7.47%). Logistic regression analysis showed that mechanical ventilation ( OR = 2.75, P = 0.020), usage of broad-spectrum antibiotics ( OR = 2.95, P = 0.012), serum C-reactive protein level ≥ 20.96 mg/L ( OR = 2.44, P = 0.007), serum amyloid A level ≥ 18.03 mg/L ( OR = 2.67, P = 0.016) and serum procalcitonin level ≥ 2.08 μg/L ( OR = 2.51, P = 0.013) were independent risk factors of positive sputum culture in older adult patients with AECOPD. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve depicting serum levels of C-reactive protein, amyloid A, and procalcitonin in combination for predicting AECOPD was 0.896, which is of predictive efficiency for positive sputum culture ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:The sputum culture pathogens in older adult patients with AECOPD are mainly Gram-negative bacteria. Increased serum levels of C-reactive protein, amyloid A, and procalcitonin are independent risk factors for Gram-positive bacteria. Combined detection of serum levels of C-reactive protein, amyloid A, and procalcitonin is highly efficient in the diagnosis of AECOPD and can be used to evaluate the sputum culture results in older adult patients with AECOPD.
RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze the influential factors of post-stroke depression and investigate the effects of changes in serum bilirubin and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein on post-stroke depression.Methods:A total of 199 patients with stroke admitted to Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital from December 2019 to December 2020 were included in this study. These patients were divided into the Xining urban group (2 000-3 000 meters above sea level; n = 165) and the Xining prefecture and county group (over 3 000 meters above sea level; n = 34) according to their long-term residence. They were also divided into the post-stroke depression group ( n = 56, including 45 patients in the Xining urban group and 11 patients in the Xining prefecture and county group) and non-post-stroke depression group ( n = 143, including 120 patients in the Xining urban group and 23 patients in the Xining prefecture and county group). Related scales were used to evaluate neurologic deficits and the degree of depression in the two groups. Serum levels of total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein were measured in each group. Neurologic deficits and the degree of depression were correlated with serum levels of total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein. Results:Serum levels of total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in the post-stroke depression group were (19.95 ± 7.22) mmol/L, (3.98 ± 1.49) mmol/L, and (1.40 ± 2.29) mg/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than (16.20 ± 7.61) mmol/L, (3.19 ± 1.62) mmol/L, and (0.63 ± 1.33) mg/L in the non-post-stroke depression group ( t = 3.17, 3.18, 2.35, all P < 0.05). There was a significant difference in serum level of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein between stroke patients with mild and moderate depression and stroke patients with severe depression ( t = 2.48, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Serum levels of bilirubin and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein play an important role in the pathogenesis of post-stroke depression and there is a significant correlation between the two.
RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze the correlation between gastric disharmony and daily eating behaviors in college students, and to provide intervention measures for improving gastric disharmony among college students.Methods:From April 10 to 30, 2021, 3 825 college students from five Chinese medicine colleges and universities in China were selected for this study using the multi-level sampling method. The information regarding college student's general situation, daily eating behavior, and stomach disharmony was collected by questionnaire.Results:A total of 3 700 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 96.73%. The average age was (20.0 ± 3.0) years, and 66.41% of college students included in this study were female. Students with different characteristics had different gastric disharmonies and eating behaviors, and gastric disharmony was correlated with eating behavior. Multivariate analysis results showed that snacking ( OR = 1.11, 95% CI: 1.02-1.21), partial eclipse ( OR = 1.12, 95% CI: 1.00-1.26), picky eaters ( OR = 1.23, 95% CI: 1.08-1.41), and supper ( OR = 1.19, 95% CI: 1.04-1.36) were positively correlated with gastric disharmony. Eating regular meals ( OR = 0.86, 95% CI: 0.79-0.94) and 80% fullness ( OR = 0.89, 95% CI: 0.81-0.98) were negatively correlated with gastric disharmony. Conclusion:Poor eating behaviors may be an important factor leading to gastric disharmony.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the relationship between peripheral blood lipid levels and hepatitis B-related liver cancer, and to provide a theoretical basis for the early prevention and treatment of liver cancer.Methods:A total of 188 patients with hepatitis B-related liver cancer who received treatment in The First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from June 2018 to June 2021 met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and had complete data, were included in this study. They were divided into three groups: chronic hepatitis B group ( n = 72), hepatitis B cirrhosis group ( n = 62), and hepatitis B-related liver cancer group ( n = 54) according to different stages of the disease. All patients' medical records were obtained from the medical data room. Fasting venous blood was collected in all patients on the second day after admission to detect peripheral blood lipid, liver function, and other relevant indicators. General data and biochemical indicators were collected. The Kruskal-Wallis test was performed to compare the measurement data among groups. The chi-squared test was performed to compare the count data among groups. Spearman's correlation (bivariate) was performed. Binary logistic regression was performed to analyze the influential factors of liver cancer. Results:There were significant differences in the levels of total cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerol (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) among the three groups ( F = 32.14, 27.59, 10.88, 34.09, all P < 0.05). TC and LDL-C levels in the hepatitis B-related liver cancer group were significantly higher than those in the hepatitis B cirrhosis group ( F = -32.31, -50.19, both P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in TG and HDL-C levels between hepatitis B-related liver cancer and hepatitis B cirrhosis groups ( F = -10.69, 4.46, both P > 0.05). TC, TG, HDL-C and LDL-C levels in the hepatitis B cirrhosis group were significantly lower than those in the chronic hepatitis B group ( F = 53.30, 46.98, 24.61, 48.57, all P < 0.05). LDL-C level was positively correlated with the occurrence of liver cancer ( r = 0.20, P < 0.05). HDL-C level was negatively correlated with the occurrence of liver cancer ( r = -0.15, P < 0.05). LDL-C was an independent risk factor for liver cancer ( OR = 3.35, P < 0.05), and HDL-C was a protective factor for liver cancer ( OR = 0.12, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Compared with patients with chronic hepatitis B and hepatitis B cirrhosis, patients with hepatitis B-related liver cancer had abnormal peripheral blood lipid levels, which may be related to the abnormal lipid metabolism of tumor cells. Moreover, peripheral blood lipid levels may affect the occurrence and development of tumor cells.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between job burnout, job stress, and depression in perimenopausal women.Methods:A total of 1 208 postmenopausal women from Wenzhou were randomly selected from August 2020 to August 2022 as research subjects for this study. Job burnout, job stress, social support, and depression were measured using the personal general condition questionnaire, the Chinese community nurse stress scale, Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale. The Pearson correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between job burnout, job stress, and depression.Results:The scores of the Chinese community nurse stress scale and Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey in married people were (47.54 ± 4.54) points and (34.69 ± 4.12) points, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in unmarried, divorced, separated, and widowed people ( F = 9.49, 51.86, all P < 0.001). The Social Support Questionnaire score in married people was (33.28 ± 8.94) points, which was significantly higher than that in unmarried, divorced, separated, or widowed people ( F = 17.55, P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale score among married, unmarried, divorced,separated, or widowed people (all P > 0.05). The scores for the Chinese community nurse stress scale, Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and Social Support Questionnaire in people who received middle school-level education were (55.41 ± 6.15) points, (44.31 ± 6.13) points, (21.24 ± 4.11) points, and (40.76 ± 10.44) points, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in people who received education of primary school and below, college and above ( F = 147.29, 106.46, 70.14, 13.08, all P < 0.001). The scores of stressors for individuals engaged in other non-service professions, the score of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey, and the score of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale were (44.21 ± 3.84) points, (37.78 ± 5.24) points, (17.53 ± 3.42) points, and (34.27 ± 6.97) points, respectively, which were significantly lower than that of stressors for individuals engaged in nursing, teaching, and other service professions ( F = 207.75, 102.47, 37.24, 137.35, all P < 0.001). The results of correlation analysis showed that the score of the stressor scale was positively correlated with the scores of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and Social Support Questionnaire ( r = 0.58, 0.62, 0.52, all P < 0.05). The score of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey was positively correlated with the scores of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale and Social Support Questionnaire ( r = 0.59, 0.68, both P < 0.05). The score of the depression scale was positively correlated with the score of the Social Support Questionnaire ( r = 0.65, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Job burnout and job stress are positively correlated with depression and related to perimenopausal women's marital status, social support, occupation, and education level.

The patient's spouse was investigated with Zarit Caregiyer Burden Interview (ZBI), and the survey data were statistically analyzed with hierarchical regression analysis.Results:The family cancer communication score of breast cancer patients was (65.30 ± 7.63) points. Hierarchical regression analysis showed that the patient′s Per capita monthly household income, tumor stage, family history of malignant tumor, and patient′s self advocacy level were the influencing factors of family cancer communication, which could explain 39.1% of family cancer communication variation ( F=22.36, P<0.05). From the aspect of patients′ spouses, the influence of spouse care burden could explain 14.2% of patients′ family cancer communication variation ( F=16.39, P<0.05). Conclusions:Breast cancer patients have poor family cancer communication. There are differences in the degree of family cancer communication among breast cancer patients with different characteristics. Patients with lower self-advocacy score, no previous family history of malignant tumor, higher spouse care burden, lower Per capita monthly household income and higher tumor stage have worse family cancer communication.
RESUMEN
Objective@#To investigate the current situation of cyberbullying and health risk behaviors among secondary vocational school students, to explore the effects of cyberbullying on health risk behaviors, so as to provide a reference for formulating intervention strategies to promote adolescent health related behaviors.@*Methods@#From March to April 2023, a field survey was conducted on 1 184 students from one secondary vocational school each in Jilin City and Yanji City by random cluster sampling method. The data was analyzed using Chi square tests and generalized linear models.@*Results@#Among secondary vocational school students, 839 individuals (70.9%) experienced the cyberbullying, and 1 036 individuals (87.5%) had one and more health risk behavior group. There was a positive correlation between cyberbullying and health risk behaviors ( r=0.60, P <0.01). The generalized linear model analysis showed that female and no Internet addiction were negatively correlated with the health risk behaviors of secondary vocational students ( β =-2.75, -8.90), and the single parent families and peer pressure was positively correlated with the health behaviors of secondary vocational students ( β =2.56, 4.82)( P ＜0.05). Secondary vocational students experienced cyberbullying who from single parent families, peer pressure and social oriented internet usage were more likely to engage in health risk behaviors ( β= 3.41, 4.88, 2.20, P <0.05).@*Conclusions@#The incidence of cyberbullying and health risk behaviors among secondary vocational school students is relatively high, and cyberbullying can influence the occurrence of health risk behaviors. It is important to focus on and implement guidance for internet use and health behavior education for secondary vocational students from multiple perspectives, including the family, school, and society. Corresponding intervention strategies should be taken to promote the healthy development of adolescents.
RESUMEN
Objective@#To evaluate the effectiveness of varicella vaccine in varicella outbreaks and to analyze the influencing factors, and to provide a reference for making the targeted prevention and controlling measures.@*Methods@#A total of 3 888 students with no history of varicella were selected from 2 schools with varicella outbreak in Guangdong Province in 2021, a retrospective cohort study was conducted by using questionnaire survey, rate ratio ( RR ) and vaccine effectiveness ( VE ) values were calculated and Logistic regression was uses to analyze the factors influencing the protective effect of varicella.@*Results@#There were 138 confirmed cases of varicella among the participants. There was no significant sex difference in the vaccination rate( χ 2=1.36, P =0.51), but there was significant difference in the vaccinattion rate of different age groups( χ 2=555.82, P <0.01). The overall protective effect of VarV was 66.94%(95% CI =56.17%-77.71%), and the protective effect of 2 doses of vaccine( VE = 90.02% , 95% CI =83.13%-96.90%) was higher than that of 1 dose( VE =49.40%, 95% CI =32.36%-66.44%)( χ 2=24.93, P < 0.01 ). The high fever rates in the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups were 7.69% and 25.81%, with significant difference( χ 2= 6.29 , P <0.05). The rates of moderate and severe skin lesions of vaccinated and unvaccinated groups was 20.00% and 50.00%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant( χ 2=11.32, P <0.01). The protective effects of varicella vaccine against high fever and moderate to severe rash were 70.19%(95% CI =42.11%-98.27%) and 60.00%(95% CI =38.15%-81.85%). Stratified analysis showed that there were significant differences in different years of vaccination( χ 2=37.87, P <0.05), while there were no significant differences in age of vaccination and vaccine manufacturer ( P >0.05).@*Conclusion@#Varicella vaccination can prevent chickenpox infection and reduce the severity of the disease. However, the efficacy of varicella vaccine was affected by vaccination years. It is recommended to improve the vaccination coverage of varicella vaccine to prevent the outbreak of the epidemic.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the value of serum gastrin 17 (G-17), pepsinogen I (PG I), pepsinogen II (PG II), and programmed cell death protein 5 (PDCD5) in the identification of gastric precancerous state and the diagnosis of early gastric cancer.Methods:A total of 86 patients with early gastric cancer who received treatment at the Marine Police Corps Hospital of Chinese People's Armed Police Force from July 2018 to June 2022 were included in the gastric cancer group. Eighty patients with gastric precancerous states who concurrently received treatment in the same hospital were included in the precancerous state group. An additional 80 partiapants who concurrently received physical examination in the same hospital were included in the healthy group.The value of G-17, PG I, PG II, and PDCD5 in the diagnosis of early gastric cancer was analyzed.Results:The levels of G-17 and PG II in the precancerous state group [(10.87 ± 3.23) pmol/L, (15.78 ± 3.33) μg/L] and gastric cancer group [(18.78 ± 4.10) pmol/L, (21.25 ± 4.48) μg/L] were significantly higher compared with the healthy group [(5.56 ± 1.43) pmol/L, (13.52 ± 3.02) μg/L, F = 362.65, 94.12, all P < 0.05]. The levels of PG I and PDCD5 in the precancerous state group [(79.52 ± 16.62) μg/L, (1.35 ± 0.15) μg/L] and gastric cancer group [(50.06 ± 15.58) μg/L, (0.85 ± 0.13) μg/L] were significantly lower than those in the healthy group [(110.12 ± 30.23) μg/L, (1.60 ± 0.12) μg/L, F = 151.07, 650.56, all P < 0.05)].There were significant differences between the precancerous state and the gastric cancer groups in terms of family history of gastric cancer, consumption of high salt fried foods, alcohol consumption history, and Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection ( χ2 = 10.39, 4.68, 11.47, 36.49, all P < 0.05). Family history of gastric cancer ( OR = 1.42, 95% CI = 1.03-1.96) and Hp infection ( OR = 3.76, 95% CI = 1.30-10.85) were identified as risk factors for gastric cancer ( P < 0.05). The combination of G-17, PG I, PG II, and PDCD5 had the highest predictive efficiency for early gastric cancer ( P < 0.05), with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve being 0.982, sensitivity and specificity of 98.84% and 90.00%, respectively. Conclusion:Family history of gastric cancer and Hp infection are risk factors for gastric cancer. Patients with precancerous state and early gastric cancer have elevated serum levels of G-17 and PG II and reduced serum levels of PG I and PDCD5 protein. Combined detection of these four indicators has a high diagnostic value for early gastric cancer.
RESUMEN
Objective@#To explore the distribution characteristics of the influencing factors of injury among left behind primary school students, so as to provide a reference for identifying high risk injury groups and carrying out accurate injury intervention.@*Methods@#From August 2021 to July 2022, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 3 769 students from grades 4 to 6 from nine primary schools in three townships in Pingliang City by using the a random cluster sampling method. Multiple correspondence analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of injury.@*Results@#The detection rate of injuries among non left behind pupils was 21.8%(573/2 631), whereas the detection rate of injuries among left behind pupils was 40.9%(466/1 138). In addition, a statistically significant difference was observed in the detection rate of injuries between left behind pupils and non left behind pupils ( χ 2=146.21, P <0.01). Among the injuries of left behind pupils, 263 had fall related injuries, accounting for the highest proportion ( 56.4 %). Whether it was an only child，and different grades, gender, personality, psychological status, monitoring type, and maternal education level were statistically significant ( χ 2=39.05, 96.69, 143.00, 155.80, 461.39, 285.35, 17.10, P <0.01). The multiple correspondence analysis category graph showed higher rates of fall injuries, blunt injuries and sharp injuries among boys, extroverted personality types, and left behind pupils whose grandparents were their legal guardians. Animal bites, burns and other injury types were higher among left behind pupils with an introverted personality, pupils in peer/other guardianship situations, and those with a sub mental health status. Unharmed left behind students mainly included those with intermediate personality and mental health characteristics.@*Conclusion@#The injury detection rate among left behind primary school students is high. Gender, personality type, guardianship type, and mental health status are closely related to injury. Extroverted boys under grandparents guardians are identified as high risk groups for injury prevention and control. Under the guidance of the precision prevention model, precision intervention strategies for all round high risk groups should be carried out in order to effectively reduce the occurrence of injuries among left behind pupils.
RESUMEN
Resumo Introdução: A qualidade de vida (QDV) favorável tem sido associada a dietas de melhor qualidade nutricional. Objetivo: Identificar padrões alimentares e estimar sua associação com a QDV em docentes universitários. Método: Estudo seccional com 112 docentes de uma universidade do Rio de Janeiro. Foram obtidos dados sociodemográficos, laborais, de saúde, estilo de vida, QDV e desgaste psíquico utilizando questionário autopreenchido. Consumo alimentar foi avaliado por questionário de frequência alimentar. Os padrões alimentares foram identificados por análise fatorial com extração por componentes principais, e sua associação com a QDV foi estimada por regressão linear múltipla. Resultados: 65% eram mulheres, 45% tinham ≥45 anos de idade e 43% apresentavam excesso de peso. O escore médio de QDV geral foi 70. Foram identificados os padrões alimentares: "lanche", "fast food", "restrito" e "básico". O padrão "restrito", composto por manteiga/margarina, pão, suco de fruta, laticínios e bebidas cafeinadas, apresentou associação direta com QDV geral e domínios psicológico e relações sociais; o padrão "lanche", composto por vegetais, carnes, frutas e bebidas cafeinadas, se associou diretamente ao domínio psicológico. Conclusões: Os padrões que mais explicaram a ingestão alimentar dos docentes eram de baixa qualidade nutricional. Padrão com teor reduzido de carboidratos associou-se com melhor QVD geral.
Abstract Background: Favorable quality of life (QOL) has been associated with diets with better nutritional quality. Objective: To identify dietary patterns and estimate their association with QOL among university faculty. Method: Cross-sectional study with faculty members (n=112) from a university in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Information on socioeconomic, work, health, lifestyle, QOL, and psychological distress characteristics were obtained using a self-administered questionnaire. Dietary intake was assessed by means of a food frequency questionnaire. Dietary patterns were identified by factor analysis with principal component extraction and their association with QOL scores was estimated using multiple linear regression models. Results: 65% were women, 45% were ≥45 years old, and 43% were overweight. The mean general QOL score was 70.0. Four dietary patterns were identified: "snack", "fast food", "controlled", and "basic". The "controlled" pattern, including butter/margarine, bread, fruit juice, dairy, and caffeinated beverages, was directly associated with general QOL and "social relationships" and "psychological" domains, the latter was also directly associated with the "snack" pattern, composed by vegetables, meats, fruits, caffeinated beverages, and butter/margarine. Conclusions: The eating patterns that most explained faculty food consumption presented low nutritional quality, while the pattern with limited carbohydrate content was associated with better general QOL.
