RESUMO
A better understanding of SARS-CoV-2 transmission from children and adolescents is crucial for informing public health mitigation strategies. We conducted a retrospective cohort study among household contacts of primary cases defined as children and adolescents aged 719 years with laboratory evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection acquired during an overnight camp outbreak. Among household contacts, we defined secondary cases using the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists definition. Among 526 household contacts of 224 primary cases, 48 secondary cases were identified, corresponding to a secondary attack rate of 9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 7%-12%). Our findings show that children and adolescents can transmit SARS-CoV-2 to adult contacts and other children in a household setting.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate and analyze the dwarf reasons for children in the area of Huai'an city,Jiangsu province.Methods A retrospective analysis of 92 cases of children with short stature in our hospital in recent 5 years had been made.Results The dwarf reasons for the 92 cases of undersized children were:lack of growth hormone (53.3％),physical sexual puberty delay (16.3％),hypothyroidism (9.8％),turner syndrome (7.6％),nanosoma essentialis (5.4％),familial short stature (4.3％),intrauterine growth retardation (2.2％)and glycogen storage disease type Ⅰ (1.1％).Conclusion The main dwarf reasons for children were growth hormone deficiency and physical sexual puberty delay,and medical treatment should be used as soon as possible.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the safeness of this treatment by comparing the serum IGF-Ⅰ and IGFBP3 concentration level before and after receiving rhGH treatment in pediatric patients.Methods 30 pediatric patients in our hospital receiving rhGH treatment were subjected to monitor serum IGF-Ⅰ and IGFBP3 level before and after the treatment and calculate the IGF-Ⅰ and IGFBP3 ratio.At the same time the serum T3,T4 and TSH are also assayed.Results The average increase of booly heights was(8.77?3.01)cm /y(t=7.773,P0.05),but the serum IGFBP3(t=3.759,P0.05).However,there was statistical significance of the serum IGFBP3 level between subgroups(f=22.964 P0.05).Conclusion The serum IGF-Ⅰ and IGFBP3 level are able to be used as one of clinical evaluation benchmarks to detect the risks of inducing tumor during the rhGH treatment in the pediatric patients.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze the determinants of television viewing among people in China,and to provide basic information for developing intervention strategies.Methods The data of 66 601 subjects aged 6 years and over(male 32 254,female 34 347) on television viewing from 2002 China National Nutrition and Health Survey was used.Results The prevalence of watching TV 2h and over among Chinese residents was 60.6%.Female had a decreased likelihood of watching TV 2h and over(adjusted odds ratio,AOR: 0.78).Children aged 13～17 years had a decreased likelihood of watching TV 2 h and over(AOR: 0.71) compared with younger children,however,adults had an increased likelihood(AOR: 1.34 for 18~44 yr,1.16 for 45～59 yr,1.04 for 60 yr and over).Light intense occupations were associated with an increased likelihood of watching TV 2 h and over(AOR: 7.18).Higher family income had an increased likelihood of watching TV 2 h and over(AOR: 1.12,1.07).Highest education level was associated with a decreased likelihood of watching TV 2h and over(AOR: 0.91).Engaging in exercise was associated with a decreased likelihood of watching TV 2h and over(AOR: 0.74).Conclusion Age,gender,socioeconomic status and exercise can influence the time spending on TV among Chinese residents.
RESUMO
Objective To study the relationship between overweight, obesity and blood pressure among children living in urban Beijing. Methods A total of 4 267 pupils aged 9～10 years were randomly selected. Overweight and obesity were defined by age and sex specific BMI classification reference for Chinese children. Hypertension was defined by age, sex and height specific reference for US children. Results The prevalence of overweight and obesity in boys was 19.4% and 21.2%, in girls was 10.9% and 12.1%, respectively. Mean levels of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) have significant different between all study group. The total prevalence of high blood pressure (HBP) was 16.1% for boys and 15.2% for girls, while it was 36.4% and 41.3% among obese boys and girls, respectively. The prevalence of high systolic blood pressure (HSBP), high diastolic blood pressure (HDBP)and HBP gradually increased as weight increased. Compared with the normal weight group, OR(95%CI) for HBP of overweight and obese children were 2.6 (2.1～3.3) and 5.8 (4.7～7.0), respectively. Conclusion Obesity is positive correlation with hypertension in children aged 9～10years of Beijing, and the risk of hypertension was increased with their body weight.
RESUMO
Objective To describe the status of sleeping time among Chinese population.Method The data of 2002 China National Nutrition and Health Survey was used for the analysis.197 954 subjects aged 6 years and above were involved.Results The average daily sleeping time of the domestic Chinese was 8.3 hrs.In groups of 6～12 yrs,13～17 yrs,18～44 yrs,45～59 yrs,60 yrs and above,the daily sleeping time were 9.1 hrs,8.5 hrs,8.2 hrs,7.9 hrs and 7.8 hrs,and the rate of insufficient sleeping was 69.0%,58.5%,4.1%,9.2% and 17.1%,respectively.The rate of excessive sleeping in groups of 18～44 yrs,45～59 yrs and 60 yrs and above were 27.1%,20.2%,24.3%,respectively.Conclusion The status of insufficient and excessive sleeping existed in Chinese at the same time,and further research should be developed on the association between sleeping time and health.
RESUMO
Objective: To describe the physical activity level and its influencing factors of Chinese professionals, to provide basis for developing intervention strategies. Method: The information on physical activity was collected by one year physical activity questionnaire in "2002 China National Nutrition and Health Survey", and 29 783 professionals aged 18-59 years old(male 15 911, female 13 872)were involved. Metabolic equivalent (MET) was adopted to estimate the intensity level of physical activities. Physical activity level (PAL) was calculated to classify sufficient (PAL≥1.7) or insufficient (PAL
RESUMO
Objective: To design the “one-year physical activity questionnaire” used in 2002 China National Nutrition and Health Survey. Methods: The intensity of each activity in the questionnaire was assessed from literature review and experts consultation. The energy intake was calculated from food frequency questionnaire for validation of the physical activity questionnaire. Results: The average daily energy expenditure per capita estimated from the questionnaire was 11.6MJ (male 11.9MJ, female 11.2MJ). The average physical activity level (PAL) was 1.95 (male 1.88, female 2.02). There was significant correlation between energy expenditure and energy intake (r = 0.13, P
