Abstract:
The prevalence of myopia among children and adolescents in China remains high. Currently, the prevention and control of myopia among children and adolescents has risen to the level of national health strategy and has attracted extensive attention from the society. Although the role of outdoor activities in preventing myopia is significant, it also has many limitations. Therefore, it is necessary to explore more effective methods for comprehensive intervention. Based on current evidence, in addition to ongoing investigatation of the role of daytime outdoor activities in myopia prevention, emerging controllable environmental and behavioral factors, e.g. increase of indoor high-frequency visual information, regulation of sleep and biological rhythm and dietary supplement of polyunsaturated fatty acids ω-3, warrents further attention and active transformation into appropriate technologies for myopia prevention and control.

Abstract:
Chinese school health education began in the late Qing Dynasty. While both local schools and western missionary schools were involved, each had different characteristics. With the goal of strengthening the country, local schools taught both Chinese and western educational content, and gradually embarked on the road of independent research and development. Missionary schools aimed to spread doctrines and western health concepts, and simultaneously introduced the western school health system. By comparing the development of two kinds of school health education in the late Qing government, this study analyzes the differences between them in terms of their educational objectives, approaches and content. The differences between Chinese and western ideas on education, body and health are summarized and regarded as fundamental factors for their differences.

Abstract:
  Objective  To analyze research hot spots and trends on myopia in children and adolescents in China, and to provide a reference for the future development of this research field.  Methods  Using CiteSpace software, 725 eligible Chinese documents published over a 22-year period were sourced from CNKI, VIP and Wanfang Chinese databases, were analyzed during 2000-2021. The data were visualized by a keyword co-occurrence map, and clustering, as well as burst and author cooperative networks.  Results  The research field of myopia in children and adolescents in China had undergone three stages: an initial formation period, development period and rapid growth period, and it was expected that the annual number of papers will maintain an increasing trend in the future. "Myopia" "adolescents" "children" and "students" were the most frequent keywords(667, 535, 288, 47). The keyword burst "adolescents" started the earliest, and "students" had the largest burst strength and duration. Zhang Ning, Tang Wenting, Tao Fangbiao, Yang Xiao and others have made important contributions to this research field.  Conclusion  In recent years, the research focus in this field has gradually shifted toward the influencing factors, as well as prevention and treatment measures of child and adolescent myopia. The trend of myopia in young children and adolescents is obvious. In the future, research on the prevention, control and treatment of myopia in children and adolescents will become a hot spot.

Abstract:
  Objective  Based on observational, longitudinal and intervention study of common diseases among students in Jiangsu Province, this paper presents the current progress of two-year follow up of myopia cohort regarding the association between growth parameters with progression of myopia among children and adolescents in areas with rapid economic growth.  Methods  This survey adopted the stratified cluster sampling method for school selection. The full-automatic computer optometry (TOPCON RM800) was used to track myopia-related parameters for all participants from 2019 to 2020 under the condition of mydriasis (compound topicamide eye drops). Relationship between growth parameters of children and adolescents and the incidence and progression of myopia was analyzed by using Cox regression multiple statistical model.  Results  The myopia rates of students from grade 1 to grade 3 in 2019 were 5.4%, 21.5% and 37.3% respectively. After one year, the myopia rates of all school stages increased to 25.3%, 43.3% and 58.1% respectively(χ2=53.59, 49.63, 32.52, P < 0.01). The mean diopter of right eye and left eye after mydriasis were (0.30±1.24/0.39±1.26)D in 2019 and (-0.33±1.54/-0.19±1.55)D in 2020, respectively based on Cox multiple regression results, age (HR=1.21, 95%CI=1.09-1.34), naked eye vision (HR=0.08, 95%CI=0.07-0.11), height (HR=0.98, 95%CI=0.97-0.99) showed a strong correlation with the incidence and progression of myopia(P < 0.05).  Conclusion  Myopia is growing rapidly in the central region of Jiangsu Province. It is suggested that diopter, axial length, naked eye vision, age, height and other indicators should be included in the refractive archives of children and adolescents in the region.

Abstract:
  Objective  To understand the referral rate in children with abnormal refractive error in screening programs and associated factors, aiming to provide evidence for improving the rate and myopia prevention and control in the future.  Methods  Using cluster sampling, three primary schools and three junior middle schools in Huangpu District, Shanghai were selected. All students were archived for refractive development, including examinations such as visual acuity, non-cycloplegic autorefraction and axial length. The follow-up visit and related factor information were collected through questionnaire, and the influencing factors of referral rate were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.  Results  A total of 2 104 high-risk children and adolescents with suspected refractive abnormalities were suggested follow-up visit, and the actual referral rate was estimated to be 60.4%; the rate of referral to designated hospitals was estimated to be 58.8%. Non-conditional Logistic regression analysis showed that myopic status before the screening(OR=1.37, 95%CI=1.08-1.72), wearing spectacles or ortho contact lens(OR=2.05, 95%CI=1.62-2.59), myopic degree (ORbelow -0.5 D=2.08, 95%CI=1.48-2.92, OR-3.0~-0.5 D=1.86, 95%CI=1.47-2.36), parents' familiarity with screening results(OR=2.92, 95%CI=1.89-4.50), parents' satisfaction with suggestions after screening (OR=3.54, 95%CI=1.16-10.79) were significant factors associated with the referral rate(P < 0.05).  Conclusion  The actual referral rate among children and adolescents needs to be improved. It is necessary to further optimize the informatization of refractive archives, strengthen popular science education for key population, standardize the professional interpretation of preliminary screening refractive examination results, improve parents' awareness, participation and satisfaction through health education, and achieve the whole process management of refractive archives.

Abstract(375) HTML (260) PDF(40)
Abstract:
  Objective  To compare the effectiveness and clinical safety between the two through the observation of Orthokeratology lens and multifocal soft lens.  Methods  By using prospective longitudinal design, sixty patients (120 eyes) with orthokeratology lens and multifocal soft lens were selected. After 1, 3, 6 and 12 months, our tests were conducted, including ocular surface disease index (OSDI) questionnaire, tear break-up time(BUT), corneal fluerescein staining (CSF) and meibomian gland function assessment, before and after wearing glasses, ocular axis and refraction in 6, 12 and 18 months after were evaluated to assess the effect of myopia control.  Results  But in the orthokeratology lens group was lower than the soft lens group after two months. The difference was statistically significant(t=4.35, P < 0.05). After 1 month of wearing glasses, BUT in the orthokeratologylens group was shorter than before(F=305.83, P < 0.05). In the group of soft lens, there was no statistically significance before and after wearing glasses(F=0.38, P>0.05). There was no difference in corneal fluorescence staining (CSF) and meibomian gland function between the two groups before and after wearing glasses.(Ftime=1.55, 1.38, 10.15, 1.50, P>0.05, Fgroup=2.31, 0.02, P>0.05). After 18 months of wearing orthokeratology lens, the average degree of spherical lens increased by -0.53 D, which was different from that before wearing(F=6.54, P < 0.05). After wearing soft lens 18 month, the average degree of spherical lens increase by -0.34 D, which was different from that before wearing(F=2.88, P < 0.05). After 18 months of wearing glasses, there were differences in the growth of ocular axis between the two groups(F=2.73, 2.83, P < 0.05).  Conclusion  Orthokeratology lens and multifocal soft lens are both safe and effective measures to control myopia.

Abstract:
  Objective  To investigate the refractive progression and associated factors of children of different ages and refractive status, and to provide guidance on myopia prevention and control program formulation and work practice.  Methods  A total of 20 kindergartens, primary schools, and secondary schools in 2 districts of Shanghai were selected based on the existing cohort, and baseline data in 2015 and one-year follow-up data in 2016 were collected from 1 510 children aged 4 to 14, including cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction (SER), axial length (AL), and corneal curvature. The distribution and progression of SER and AL in children of different ages and refractive status were analyzed, and the influencing factors of SER progression (ΔSER) were explored using multiple linear regression.  Results  ΔSER remained relatively stable at age 4 and 5 (average -0.08 to -0.07 D/year), and SER drifted significantly towards myopia (average -0.50 to -0.31 D/year) in all groups older than 6 years, dropping back to -0.44 to -0.33 D/year after age 11; Elongation of AL (ΔAL) was 0.27 to 0.35 mm/year in 4 to 10 years group, and decreased to 0.15 to 0.22 mm/year in 11 to 14 years group. The ΔSER and ΔAL were greatest in the new-onset myopes [(-0.90±0.05)D, (0.51±0.02)mm], followed by the low myopia group [(-0.68±0.04)D, (0.36±0.02)mm], then followed by the moderate to high myopia group[(-0.49±0.06)D, (0.23±0.03)mm] and the lowest in the hyperopia group[(-0.21±0.02)D, (0.26±0.01)mm], with a statistically significant difference among these groups (P < 0.05). Age (β=-0.07), baseline SER (β=0.05) and ΔAL (β=-0.78) were independent influencing factors for refractive progression in the 4 to 10 years old group, while ΔAL(β=-1.55) was the only independent influencing factor in the 11 to 14 years old group (P < 0.05).  Conclusion  The elongation of AL in preschoolers is mostly physiologically and should be prevented from growing beyond the physiological range by increasing outdoor activities. The primary students, as well as students with pre-myopia or low myopia are the priority groups for dynamic monitoring and intervention in myopia prevention and control.

Abstract:
  Objective  To understand the distribution and progress of premyopia among children aged 6-8 years in Shanghai, and to analyze the related influencing factors in order to provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and control of myopia among children and adolescents in China.  Methods  Using a random cluster sampling method, a 2-year follow-up study was conducted among 2 037 students in grades 1 and 2 from eight primary schools in eight districts of Shanghai. At baseline and annual follow-up, ophthalmological examinations such as visual acuity, cycloplegic autorefraction and axial length were performed, and questionnaires on related factors were collected. The epidemiological characteristics of premyopia were analyzed, and the influencing factors of incident myopia in premyopic and hyperopic children were examined by multivariate Logistic regression.  Results  The prevalence of overall premyopia at baseline, first-year follow-up, and second-year follow-up were 26.2%, 37.3%, and 41.3%, respectively. Among them, the prevalence of premyopia in children aged 6, 7, and 8 at baseline were 20.7%, 37.0%, and 42.6%, and in children aged 8, 9, and 10 at the second-year follow-up were 31.5%, 38.3%, and 41.4%, respectively. There was no statistical difference between boys and girls (χ2=0.01-2.66, P>0.05). The incidence of myopia in children with premyopia at baseline was 31.5% after 1 year of follow-up, and the cumulative incidence of myopia after 2 years of follow-up was 62.0%, which was much higher than that in children with hyperopia (0.6% and 9.0%). Multivariate analysis showed that premyopia at baseline, female, having two parents with myopia, and AL at baseline were negatively associated with incidence of myopia at 2 years of follow-up (P < 0.05).  Conclusion  Premyopic children are at high risk of developing myopia within 2 years and are a priority group for surveillance and myopia prevention interventions.

Abstract(425) HTML (149) PDF(61)
Abstract:
  Objective  To explore the screen related sedentary behavior among senior primary school students in Beijing and to analyze the influence of psychosocial determinants and nutrition-related knowledge on the behavior.  Methods  In January 2020, a total of 1 316 students in grade 4-6 from two primary schools in Beijing were selected. Information on video-viewing (watching TV or playing video games), self-efficacy, habit strength, nutrition-related knowledge, outcome expectation and the capacity to persist toward goal attainment were collected through questionnaires. Disordered multi-classification Logistic regression and random forest algorithm were used to analyze the influencing factors.  Results  The frequency of screen related sedentary was 5.0(3.0, 10.5) times/week, and the duration was 37.5(9.6, 97.5) min/d in senior elementary school children. The results of disordered multi-classification Logistic regression showed that the capacity to persist toward goal attainment, nutrition-related knowledge, habit strength, self-efficacy and gender positively correlated with the frequency of screen related sedentary (OR=1.6, 1.7, 4.9, 4.2, 1.5), while the nutrition-related knowledge, habit strength, self-efficacy, outcome expectations, grade and gender positively correlated with screen time (OR=1.7, 5.6, 5.7, 1.6, 1.6, 1.7)(P < 0.05). Random forest regression tree model showed that the top four influencing factors on screen related sedentary frequency were self-efficacy, the capacity to persist toward goal attainment, habit strength and nutrition-related knowledge and the top four influencing factors on screen time were self-efficacy, outcome expectation, nutrition-related knowledge, habit strength.  Conclusion  Screen related sedentary behavior is prevalent among senior primary school students in Beijing. Health education should be strengthened regarding influencing factors of screen related sedentary behavior.

Abstract:
  Objective  To investigate parents' acceptance to the COVID-19 vaccine booster shots for their children aged 3-11 years in Nanjing based on the theory of planned behavior, and to provide a scientific theoretical basis for carrying out COVID-19 booster vaccination among children of this age group.  Methods  A total of 1 286 parents of children aged 3-11 years in Nanjing were selected by multistage stratified cluster sampling. A questionnaire survey based on the theory of planned behavior was used to investigate their willingness to vaccinate their children with the COVID-19 booster dose, and structural equation model was used to conduct data analysis.  Results  About 90.2% of parents were willing to give their children a booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. The model constructed based on the theory of planned behavior could explain 42.2% of the variance of vaccination acceptance. Attitudes and perceived behavioral control had a direct positive effect on parents' acceptance to booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine (path coefficients were 0.47 and 0.18, P < 0.01); The direct effect of subjective norms on vaccination acceptance was not statistically significant; Perceived behavioral control and subjective norms could have indirect positive effects on vaccination acceptance through attitudes (path coefficients were 0.27 and 0.13, P < 0.01).  Conclusion  Parents in Nanjing have a higher acceptance to vaccinate their children aged 3-11 years with the COVID-19 vaccine booster dose. The theory of planned behavior shows a good explanatory ability on parents' acceptance to vaccinate their children, and attitude plays an important role in the formation of vaccination acceptance.

Abstract:
  Objective  To investigate whether there is a nonlinear relationship and threshold effect between the number of daily steps counts and fat loss in obese children and adolescents.  Methods  Forty-eight obese children and adolescents were randomly recruited to undergo 4-week closed exercise training during July to August 2021. Actigraphy GT3X+ was used to monitor the daily steps, and fat loss effect was evaluated by changes of body composition indicators before and after the intervention. Paired samples t test was used to compare the indicators before and after the intervention; the dose-response relationship between daily steps counts and fat loss was analyzed by linear regression and piecewise regression, and the nonlinear relationship was analyzed by restricted cubic spline (RCS).  Results  Body fat mass, percentage of body fat, lean body mass and skeletal muscle mass decreased (27.50±7.33)kg, (36.17±5.59)%, (47.55±6.48)kg, (26.14±3.84)kg, respectively compared with those before intervention (t=21.04, 13.32, 7.65, 8.35, P < 0.05). There was a significant nonlinear dose-response relationship between daily steps counts and the change of these indicators (P < 0.05). After adjusting for age, sex and baseline BMI, each 1 000-step increase in daily walking number, BMI increased by 0.44(95%CI=0.03-0.84)kg and body fat percentage by 0.61%(95%CI=0.17%-1.04%). After adjusting for age, sex, and baseline BMI, each 1 000 step increased in daily number of steps occurred when the daily number of steps ranged from 8 300 to 11 400, lean body weight increased by 0.58(95%CI=0.11-1.04)kg, skeletal muscle mass increased by 0.29(95%CI=0.03-0.54)kg.  Conclusion  There is a non-linear dose-response relationship between daily steps and fat loss in obese children and adolescents, for optimal fat loss efficiency, daily steps to 8 300-11 400 appropriate.

Abstract(408) HTML (177) PDF(39)
Abstract:
  Objective  To understand the current status and associated factors of smoking behavior among adolescents in Tibet.  Methods  From August to October 2019, 4 983 students were selected by PPS and cluster sampling for questionnaire survey. The Chi-square test and unconditional Logistic regression analysis were used to explore associated factors of smoking among adolescents in Tibet.  Results  In 2019, current smoking rate of Tibetan adolescents was 11.3% (563/4 983), attempted smoking rate was 21.8% (1 086/4 983), and the rate of second-hand smoke exposure was 62.4% (3 111/4 983). Among the 563 current smokers, 82.9% reported they wanted to quit smoking, 79.9% had made a quit attempt in the past 12 months, and only 11.7% received help or advice from professionals. Logistic regression analysis showed that city (OR=2.38), third grade (OR=1.51), high school (OR=2.90) or vocational high school (OR=3.53), boys (OR=16.93), pocket money ≥50 yuan per week (OR=1.93), exposure to second-hand smoke (OR=16.12), awareness of harm from second-hand smoke (OR=1.40), no awareness of harm from second-hand smoke (OR=4.89), exposure to tobacco advertising (OR=1.83), friend smoking (OR=7.47) and observing teacher smoking every day (OR=1.79) were associated with more teenagers' current smoking behaviors. Perceived low attractiveness in smoking behavior (OR=0.54) was associated with lower teenagers' current smoking behavior(P < 0.05).  Conclusion  Smoking and attempted smoking are common among Tibetan adolescents in 2019, and second-hand smoke exposure is serious. Vocational high school students are the key population for tobacco control intervention, and schools are the primary places for tobacco control intervention.

Abstract:
  Objective  To investigate child injury prevention practice and associated factors among parents of primary school students.  Methods  Parents of 2 577 students were selected from three primary schools in three administrative regions of Shanghai by multi-stage sampling method between May and June in 2021. Questionnaire survey was administered to parents based on the Index System for Assessing Parent's Ability on Child Injury Prevention, which was developed previously by the present research group.  Results  were converted into standardized scores for descriptive analysis, and the original scores were analyzed by multiple linear regression model.  Results  The standardized scores of parents on environment safety, product safety, behaviors and skills and psychological safety were (0.91±0.08)(0.93±0.08)(0.97±0.04)(0.95±0.05), respectively. The standardized score of general ability was (0.95±0.04). The standardized scores on knowledge, attitude and practice of injury prevention were (0.99±0.03)(0.97±0.05)(0.89±0.10), respectively. Mothers' performances were generally better than fathers'. Parents with higher education performed better than those with lower education. Parents with "being a parent" in mind performed better on child injury prevention.  Conclusion  There is a gap between practice with the knowledge as well as attitude towards child injury prevention among parents of primary school students. Parenting role, educational background and parental awareness of the importance of parental role are primary factors that affect child injury prevention practice.

Abstract:
  Objective   To explore the associations between parental marital status with bullying and self-injurious behavior among primary and secondary school students, and to provide intervention support for the prevention of self-injurious behavior of primary and secondary school students.   Methods   A total of 11 107 primary and secondary school students in Nanyang, Anyang and Xinxiang city from central China were selected using multistage clustering sampling method. A questionnaire survey regarding bullying was administered.   Results   Report rate of bullying in boys (18.1%) was higher than that in girls (9.8%), while report rate of self-injurious behavior in girls (3.9%) was higher than that in boys(3.2%)(χ2=155.56, 4.64, P < 0.05). The severity of bullying (r=0.44) and types of bullying (r=0.42) were positively correlated with self-injurious behaviors(P < 0.01), while parental marital status was negatively correlated with self-injurious behavior(r=-0.11, P < 0.01). Parental marital status negatively moderated the relationship between severity of bullying(β=-0.01), types (β=-0.05) with self-injurious behavior(P < 0.01).   Conclusion   Parental marital status plays a moderating role in the association between bullying and self-injurious behavior among primary and middle school students.The lower parental marital status, the higher rate of self-injurious behavior among bullied children. Comparison of bullied rates among primary and secondary school students with different characteristics.

  Objective  To understand the relationships of social exclusion, personality trait and emotion regulation with willingness to seek help after being bullied, and to provide reference for rationalized intervention of campus bullying among middle school students.  Methods  A tatal of 2 040 middle school students from a middle school in Jiangxi Province were selected as the research objects, and surveyed by general situation questionnaire, Olweus Bullying Questionnaire, Willingness to Seek Help Scale, social exclusion scale, personality scale and Emotion Regulation Scale. Among them, a further survey of 381 bullies was conducted and SPSS 26.0 was used for statistical processing of data.  Results  About 55.88% (133/238) and 58.74% (84/143) reported willingness to seek help after being bullied among middle and high school students, respectively(χ2=0.30, P>0.05). There were no significant differences in gender and residency(P>0.05). In junior middle school students, compared with the non-help-willingness group(3.83±0.78, 3.35±1.03, 3.33±1.03, 29.81±7.77), the rejected scores of the help-willingness group were lower(3.57±0.75), scores of affinity and openness in personality traits were higher(3.69±0.88, 3.72±0.79), the cognitive reappraisal scores were higher(32.42±8.25). Among senior middle school students, the rejected and expression suppression scores of the help-willingness group were lower(3.51±0.67, 26.96±7.47), while extroversion personality traits were higher(3.61±0.95). Multivariate unconditional Log-binomial regression analysis showed that high score of expression suppression was associated with less willingness to seek help(OR=0.94, P=0.02).  Conclusion  Social exclusion, personality trait and emotional regulation may have certain influences on willingness to seek help after being bullied among junior and senior middle school students, effects varies by grade level.

Abstract:
  Objective  To understand the association between positive and negative childhood experiences with uncertainty stress in college students.  Methods  From March to May 2021, 1 816 college students in Jiangsu and Hubei Province were randomly selected, and an electronic structured questionnaire was used to collect the general characteristics, positive and adverse childhood experience, and uncertainty stress. Logistic regression was used to explore the association between positive and negative childhood experiences with uncertainty stress.  Results  The reported rate of uncertainty stress among 1 816 college students was 27.5%(n=500). Logistic regression results showed that the risk of uncertainty stress among students with childhood abuse experience was 2.10 times higher than that of control group(OR=2.10, 95%CI=1.64-2.70). The probability of uncertainty stress in students with high self-awareness was 37% of those with low self awareness(OR=0.37, 95%CI=0.24-0.57). The probability of uncertainty stress in students with positive predictable life was 32% of those without(OR=0.32, 95%CI=0.13-0.77).  Conclusion  College students are vulnerable population for psychological stress. Both positive and adverse childhood experience are associated with the occurrence of uncertainty stress. Early screening for with adverse childhood experiences in adolescents is recommended to protect physical and mental health.

  Objective  To explore the gene-lifestyle interaction of ATP2B1-eNOS pathway gene polymorphisms on blood pressure.  Methods  Using the convenient cluster sampling method, a total of 872 junior middle school students from 3 school in July to August 2019, were included in the final analysis.The survey included questionnaire investigation, anthropometry measurement and blood sample collection.After DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples, the gene polymorphisms (ATP2B1 gene rs17249754 and rs2070759, eNOS gene rs1799983 and rs2070744) were genotyped.Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between gene polymorphism and blood pressure phenotypes.  Results  The prevalence of high blood pressure was 9.52% in adolescents (9.15% in boys and 9.87% in girls), with no significant sex difference (χ2=0.13, P=0.72).There were statistically significant differences between boys and girls in age, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), body mass index (BMI) classification, birth weight, daily school physical exercise time and daily playing video games time (P < 0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that, eNOS gene rs2070744 polymorphism was associated with high blood pressure (HBP) under the recessive model, and the risk of HBP in CC genotype carriers were higher than that TT/TC genotype carriers (OR=3.88, 95%CI=1.00-15.02, P < 0.05).The results of gene-lifestyle interaction showed that ATP2B1 gene rs2070759 polymorphism gene had an interaction with the time of physical exercise in school (Pinteraction=0.05).In the subgroup with daily physical exercise time at school < 1 hour, the TT/TG genotype carriers were associated with increased risk of HBP compared with GG genotype carriers (OR=2.65, 95%CI=1.11-6.30, P < 0.05).But in the subgroup with daily physical exercise time in school ≥1 hour, rs2070759 was not significantly associated with HBP.  Conclusion  eNOS/rs2070744 polymorphisms are associated with risk of HBP among adolescents.There is significant interaction between ATP2B1 gene rs2070759 polymorphism and physical exercise time in school on HBP.Adolescents should spend more time on physical activity in school, which will help to maintain normal blood pressure level.

Abstract:
  Objective  To understand the relationships between screen time, physical activity, as well as neck and shoulder pain among university students in Tianjin.  Methods  In this study, 904 university students in Tianjin were investigated using the Chinese Musculos Keletal Questionnaire during April-June 2021.Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to understand the neck and shoulder pain and the correlation between screen time and physical activity.  Results  There was significant gender differences in the prevalence of neck and shoulder pain (χ2=24.35, P < 0.05).Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that among male students, the risk of neck and shoulder pain whose screen time more than 6 h/d was 4.55 times that of those with screen time ≤2 h/d, among female students, the risk of neck and shoulder pain whose exercise time >150 min/week was 0.63 times than that of students who exercised ≤75 min/week (P < 0.05).Among undergraduate and graduate students, physical activity ≥150 min/d was associated with lower rate of neck and shoulder pain (OR=0.52, 1.26, 0.61), while screen time ≥6 h/d was associated with higher rate of neck and shoulder pain (OR=2.39, 6.18, 2.97), and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05).The prevalence of neck and shoulder pain were higher in male students as well as undergraduate and graduate students who had higher screen time and higher physical activity than those with lower screen time and higher physical activity (OR=2.96, 2.35, 2.93)(P < 0.05).  Conclusion  High screen time and physical inactivity is associated with higher risk of neck and shoulder pain among college students.The effect of physical inactivity on neck and shoulder pain might be weaker than that of screen time.It is suggested that schools and families should cooperate to control screen activity and increase physical inactivity, so as to prevent the occurrence of neck and shoulder pain in college students.

Abstract:
In recent years, the overall incidence of scoliosis in children and adolescents in China is on the rise, and it has become the third largest "killer" affecting the health of children and adolescents in China after obesity and myopia. The dysfunction caused by spinal deformity has no obvious pathological manifestations or clinical symptoms in children and adolescents (except for severe scoliosis). It is easy to be ignored in the early stage, but if it is not intervened in time, this will cause serious damage to the long-term prognosis and quality of life of the patients. Therefore, through early scoliosis screening, we can effectively monitor the spinal health status of children and adolescents in China, ensure timely diagnosis of the disease, timely intervention (brace and other conservative treatment), and play the role of early prevention. Avoid further deterioration of scoliosis and surgical intervention. This article will focus on the research progress of screening and conservative treatment of scoliosis.

Abstract:
The incidence of myopia in children and adolescents has increased in recent years, with an earlier onset trend. During the same time, sleep problems are prevalent in children and adolescents, including insufficient sleep duration and delayed sleep timing. Sleep, as a cyclical life activity influenced by the circadian rhythm, plays an important role in eye growth and refractive development. This review examines the associations between sleep, circadian rhythm, and occurrence of myopia in children and adolescents across human and animal studies, and discusses the underlying biological processes, so as to offer scientific justification for the prevention of myopia in children and adolescents.

Abstract:
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional deformity that includes scoliosis in the coronal plane, imbalance in the sagittal plane, and rotation of the vertebral body in the transverse axis without any congenital spinal anomalies or combined neuromuscular and skeletal disorders, and is the most common structural scoliosis in clinical practice. Epidemiological surveys have shown that the prevalence of AIS in China is on the rise and has become another important health problem threatening the health of our youth. Studies have found that exercise therapy shows positive effects on the prevention and treatment of AIS, but the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. This paper reviewed relevant literature through China Knowledge Network (CNKI), Web of Science, PubMed, Elsevier, regarding pathological mechanisms of the occurrence and development of AIS, as well as effectiveness of exercise therapy on AIS and related mechanisms during recent years, to provide reference for the treatment of AIS.
