Objective@#To understand the current situation and regulatory effectiveness of daylighting and artificial lighting in primary and secondary school classrooms in Shanghai, so as to provide a basis for enhancing the visual environment of school classrooms.@*Methods@#From April 2021 to December 2023, the daylighting and artificial lighting conditions of classrooms in 1 735 regular primary and secondary schools currently in operation in Shanghai were monitored, and the qualified rate of each indicator was calculated. The Chisquare test or Fisher exact probability method were used to compare the differences in qualification rates across different educational stages, regions, school type, both before and after the implementation of regulatory measures. The regulatory measures included convene interview, propaganda and education, supervision order, supervisory opinion paper, rectification requests and offenses and punishment.@*Results@#The qualified rate of daylighting and artificial lighting in primary and secondary school classrooms was 30.1%, with a qualified daylighting rate of 85.6% and a qualified artificial lighting rate of 32.9%. There was no statistically significant differences in the qualified rate of daylighting and artificial lighting in primary and secondary schools (32.4%，28.1%；χ2=3.76，P＞0.05). However, statistically significant differences were found in the qualified rate of daylighting and artificial lighting in urban and rural school classrooms (32.6%，26.7%), as well as in public and private schools (31.4%, 20.6%) (χ2=6.99，9.92，P＜0.05). Following the implementation of regulatory measures, the qualified rate of classroom daylighting and artificial lighting improved from 30.1% to 83.2%, while the respective qualified rates of daylighting and artificial lighting increased from 85.6% to 91.1% and 32.9% to 90.5%. Compared to the preimplementation period, the qualified rate of classroom daylighting and artificial lighting, as well as the respective rates of daylighting and artificial lighting, all showed statistically significant differences after the implementation of regulatory measures (χ2=995.29，25.34，1 219.87，P<0.01).@*Conclusions@#Effective regulatory measures can promote enhanced classroom daylighting and artificial lighting. Attention should be paid to improving classroom artificial lighting, in order to provide students with enhanced visual environment.

Impact of low body mass index during early childhood on malnutrition in children and adolescents: a cohort study in Zhongshan / 中国学校卫生

Objective@#To investigate the incidence of malnutrition in children and adolescents aged between 8 and 16 years in Zhongshan, Guangdong Province and to explore the impact of lower body mass index in early childhood on malnutrition in children and adolescents.@*Methods@#A retrospective cohort of 2 188 students with complete data on weight and height from grade one in primary school to grade one in high school in Zhongshan were included in this analysis. Normal weight individuals with BMI lower than the 50th percentiles (P50) were defined as lower BMI, according to "Report on the Physical Fitness and Health Surveillance of Chinese School Students" in 2005. Screening Standard for Malnutrition of School-age Children and Adolescents in 2014 (WS/T 456—2014) was used to define malnutrition. Prevalence and incidence of malnutrition was calculated, and chi-square test was used to compare the difference of the incidence of malnutrition between children with BMI <P50 and those with BMI ≥P50 at baseline.@*Results@#The prevalence of malnutrition was 15.08% for children in grade one of primary school, which reached highest of 16.32% in grade two of primary school and decreased to 7.27% in grade one in high school. The annual incidence of malnutrition among students with normal weight decreased from 8.37% in grade two in primary school to 1.22% in grade one in high school. Boys with lower BMI in grade one in primary school had the incidence of malnutrition with 12.47% in grade two in primary school, while those with BMI ≥P50 had the incidence of 0.63%. Girls with lower BMI had higher incidence of malnutrition than those with BMI ≥P50.@*Conclusion@#Incident malnutrition between grade one in primary school and grade one in high school is more likely to occur in early childhood. Lower BMI in early childhood significantly increases the risk of malnutrition in children and adolescents. Malnutrition prevention should be implemented from early childhood, especially for those with lower BMI.

BACKGROUND: It remains poorly understood whether anterior column quadrilateral wing plate exists to solve intraoperative multiple plastic and quadrilateral in vivo shift for treating acetabular anterior column and acetabular quadrilateral body fractures.OBJECTIVE: To figure out the promising application on measurement of anatomical character parameters when designing acetabular anterior column and acetabular quadrilateral body using Mimics software. METHODS: 60 pelvic CT scan data were collected and three-dimensionally reconstructed by Mimics software. The following anatomical character parameters were measured, including the angle between plane of arcuate line of true pelvis and plane of quadrilateral surface, the four boundary lines of quadrilateral body, and the thickness of substance of bone in quadrilateral region. The projection curve on quadrilateral surface of acetabular margin and dangerous zone for screw placement were both drew. Above all, the study attempted to find out the proper safe entry point of quadrilateral screw and to measure their leaning inside angles.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The angle between plane of arcuate line of true pelvis and plane of quadrilateral surface was not significantly different between males and females. (2) The minimum thickness of quadrilateral body in males was larger than that in females. (3) The maximum leaning angle flapper plate screw P1 and P2 for quadrilateral body was significantly smaller in males than in females, but that of screw P3 was not significantly different between males and females. (4) The application of Mimics software made it easier, more intuitive and more practical for the design or development of new plate for acetabular anterior column and acetabular quadrilateral body. The common points and difference between acetabular anterior column and acetabular quadrilateral body could be specifically described by the new anatomical character parameters, which are defined by bone surface features of pelvis.

Regulatory mechanism of p38MAPK signaling pathway on renal tissue inflammation in chronic kidney disease and interventional effect of traditional Chinese medicine / 中国中药杂志

The inflammatory reaction of renal tissues and its relevant tissue damages (such as glomerulosclerosis and renal interstitial fibrosis) are important factors for the development of chronic kidney diseases (CKD) to end-state renal diseases. Of them, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway plays an important role in regulating expression and bioactivity of multiple nuclear transcription factors, impacting synthesis of downstream inflammatory mediators and activating inflammatory cells. Some monomer traditional Chinese medicines and their extracts (such as emodin and berberine) and some traditional Chinese medicine compound prescriptions (such as Yishen Huoxue decoction) can affect inflammatory reaction of renal tissues by regulating p38MAPK signaling pathway, thas improving reduce glomerulus and renal interstitial inflammatory injury.

Regulative mechanism of Chinese herbal medicine on cell signaling pathway in kidney / 中国中药杂志

In kidney, the role of cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, inflammatory mediators and cytokines expression is closely related with cell signaling pathways, including tyrosine kinase pathway, transforming growth factor-beta/Smad pathway, Rho/Rho-associated coiled-coil forming protein kinase pathway, phosphoinositol pathway, cyclic nucleotide pathway, nuclear factor kappaB pathway and so on. Some Chinese herbs and their extracts, such as rhubarb and triptolide, as well as some Chinese herbal prescriptions, such as astragalus-angelica mixture and Chailing decoction, not only could ameliorate proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis of renal cell by regulating cell signaling pathways, but also could control target gene transcription, expression and its biological effects through inhibiting the phosphorylation of key signaling molecules.

Extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma: report of 34 cases / 中华泌尿外科杂志

Objective To review the diagnosis and treatment of extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma with a 34cases report. Methods Thirty-four cases of extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma were retrospectively analyzed. Hypertension was observed in 27 cases. Abdominal pain was seen in 10 patients and intermittent hematuria in 2 patients. Serum and urinary catecholamine and urinary VMA were measured in 34 cases. The level of serum or urinary catecholamine elevated in 20 cases and urine VMA elevated in 24 cases. Thirty-four cases had ultrasound examination,25 cases underwent CT scan and 6 cases underwent MER scan.Results Pheochromocytomas of 12 cases were located in the renal hilum, 2 in the lower pole of the left kidney, 1 in the posterior aspect of the inferior vena cava, 3 in the interaortocaval region, 2 in the anterior aspect of the abdominal aorta, 1 in the anterior of the right common iliac artery, 1 in the hilum of the liver, 1 in the posterior o{ the pancreas, 2 in the bladder wall, 1 in the posterior of the descending colon, and 8 cases of multifoci. Twenty-two cases of extraadrenal pheochromocytoma were benign and 12 cases were malignant. Thirty cases were followed up from 6 months to 13 years. Among 27 cases with hypertension, the blood pressure of 22 patients returned to normal and 5 cases were still hypertensive. Nine cases of malignant pheochromocytoma all had tumor recurrence or metastases at one year postoperatively. Six patients died during followed-up from 6 months to 3 years, including 3 cases died of cerebral hemorrhage and 3 cases of tumor metastases. Three cases got stable with 131Ⅰ-MIBG radiotheraphy.Conclusions The accurate detecting extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma is difficult. CT scan could be reliable in localizing the lesions. Surgical resection of the tumor could be the best therapy. Patients of malignant extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma may be treated with 131Ⅰ-MIBG after surgical therapy.

Diagnosis and treatment of female pseudohermaphroditism caused by congenital adrenal hyperplasia (report of 4 cases) / 中华泌尿外科杂志

Objective To report the effect of hormone replacement plus orthopedic surgery for 4 patients with female pseudohermaphroditism caused by congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Methods Four patients with female pseudohermaphroditism caused by congenital adrenal hyperplasia were included.On admission their ages were 11,15,14 and 20 years,respectively.The diagnoses were confirmed by medical histories,ultrasonography,serum levels of hormones and chromosome analysis.They all underwent clitoroplasty and vaginoplasty with perineal skin flap. Results After operation the patients received estrogen and progestogen for a short time to adjust the menstrual cycle and hydrocortisone replacement(10 to 20 mg,twice a day) for their lifetime.Normal menstruation and well-developed breasts were observed in all the patients.No constriction occurred in the reconstructed vaginas. Conclusions This disease can be easily misdiagnosed as hypospadias with bilateral cryptorchidism.Therefore,in addition to careful physical examination,the measurement of serum hormones,ultrasonography of the abdomen,and chromosome analysis are necessary.Proper utilization of the perineal skin flap for reconstruction of the clitoris and vagina as well as careful perioperative managements in combination with hormone replacement therapy can greatly contribute to satisfactory results.
