A mixed-methods evaluation of a narrative medicine course and its impact on empathy development among medical students
BACKGROUND: Narrative medicine has been increasingly advocated as a means of fostering empathy in medical education; however, empirical evidence integrating both effectiveness and processes underlying empathy development remains limited, particularly in non-Western contexts. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a narrative medicine-based interdisciplinary course on medical students' empathy and to explore how such an intervention facilitate…

Low-fat dairy and yogurt intake are positively associated with general and abdominal obesity among Chinese children: A cross-sectional study
The association between dairy intake and general as well as abdominal obesity in children varies depending on the type of dairy. Low-fat dairy intake and yogurt intake are positively associated with childhood general and abdominal obesity
Exploring Pedagogical Interactions: A Critical Discourse Analysis of College English Teaching in Chinese Media Colleges
This study employs Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to investigate the complexities of interactive classroom discourse within the context of College-level English education in Chinese media colleges. Specifically, the study focuses on a reading session that took place in a freshman English class, with the aim of evaluating classroom interactions. The primary objective is to interpret the recurring patterns of interactive feedback exchanged betwe…

A comprehensive study on the regulation of Compound Zaoren Granules on cAMP/CREB signaling pathway and metabolic disorder in Cums-PCPA induced insomnia rats
These results indicate that CZG can significantly prolong sleep time. CZG is used to treat insomnia by regulating various neurotransmitters, HPA axis, inflammatory factors, cAMP/CREB signaling pathways, and metabolic disorders
Associations of Covid-19 vaccination during pregnancy with adverse neonatal and maternal outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Association Between Ideal Cardiovascular Health and Executive Function in Chinese Primary School Children
Aims: Little information exists on the associations of cardiovascular health, a new metric proposed by the American Heart Association, and executive function, particularly in children. We aimed to explore this topic. Methods: We studied 3,798 children aged 6–12 years from 5 schools in Guangzhou, China. The executive function of children was evaluated using parent reports of the Behavioral Rating Inventory of Executive Function, which included 2 c…
Association between the 24-hour movement guidelines and executive function among Chinese children
Meeting more recommendations of the 24-h movement guidelines was associated with superior EF in children. Specifically, more PA and healthy sleep duration should be encouraged to promote children's EF

Association between Physician-Diagnosed Asthma and Weight Status among Chinese Children: The Roles of Lifestyle Factors
Childhood asthma and obesity have posed a parallel epidemic over the past few decades. However, whether asthma diagnosis is associated with obesity, and what the roles of lifestyle factors play in this relationship, remained unclarified. This study aimed to investigate the association between asthma and weight status in Chinese children and explore the potential mediating and/or modifying roles of lifestyle factors in the association. In this cro…
Association of Reallocating Time in Different Intensities of Physical Activity with Weight Status Changes among Normal-Weight Chinese Children: A National Prospective Study
Background: Time spent in different intensity-specific physical activities is codependent, but the substitution effect of different activities on weight status changes in children remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the prospective association between reallocating time in different intensities of physical activity and weight status changes among Chinese children. Methods: A national sample of 15,100 normal-weight children aged 7-18 ye…
Gender-dependent association between sleep duration and overweight incidence in CHINESE school children: A national follow-up study
The association between short sleep duration and overweight is age- and gender dependent. In group of small age and elder age, girls' adiposity states are independently associated with sleep duration. Sleep recommendation is a potential preventive action for overweight/obesity among girls
Parental perception of child weight and its association with weight-related parenting behaviours and child behaviours: A Chinese national study
Objective Parents commonly fail to correctly recognize the weight status of their child. Whether parental perception of child weight is associated with weight-related parenting behaviours and child behaviours is unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the distribution of parental perception of child weight and its associations with weight-related parenting behaviours and child behaviours in China. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Sev…
Association between Cesarean Section and Weight Status in Chinese Children and Adolescents: A National Survey
Previous research on the association between cesarean section (CS) and childhood obesity has yielded inconsistent findings. This study assessed the secular trend of CS and explored the relationship between CS and the risks of overweight and obesity in Chinese children and adolescents. Data came from a national multicenter school-based study conducted in seven provinces of China in 2013. Covariate data including weight, height and delivery mode we…
The prevalence of obesity and influence of early life and behavioral factors on obesity in Chinese children in Guangzhou
The prevalence of overweight and obesity were high in Chinese children in Guangzhou, and both were higher than previous level in 2011. Further research should address the unhealthy dietary (e.g. SSBs intake, fast eating speed) and sedentary behaviors (e.g. doing homework) of these children. Moreover, an accurate perception of body weight can help promote the adoption of weight-loss practices in overweight and obese children
Dental caries is negatively correlated with body mass index among 7-9 years old children in Guangzhou, China
Higher BMI was associated with lower odds of caries; overweight and obese children were more likely to be primary dental caries free among 7-9 years in Guangzhou, China
Metabolic syndrome and its associated early-life factors in children and adolescents: A cross-sectional study in Guangzhou, China
Objective The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in 7- to 17-year-old children and adolescents in China and to examine the relationship between MetS and its associated early-life factors. Design Data were collected using a standard parent/guardian questionnaire in a face-to-face interview. Each participant underwent a complete anthropometric evaluation. MetS was defined according to the criteria of the …
Protective effect of n-butyl alcohol extracts from Rhizoma Pinelliae Pedatisectae against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats
Association between sleep duration and obesity is age- and gender-dependent in Chinese urban children aged 6–18 years: A cross-sectional study
Short sleep duration is associated with increased chances of obesity among girls and 13- to 18-year-old boys, but the chances of obesity are decreased among 6- to 12-year-old boys. Age and gender should be regarded as specific characteristics for the effects of short sleep on obesity

Relationship of BMI to the incidence of hypertension: A 4 years’ cohort study among children in Guangzhou, 2007–2011
The 4-year longitudinal study indicated that the overweight and obesity can predict the higher risk of hypertension in Chinese children, whereas, the thinness predict the lower risk of hypertension only in boys
