Abstract: The performance of different BP readings and their combinations at a visit to identify children and adolescents with pediatric hypertension remains controversial. We aimed to assess the utility of different blood pressure (BP) readings and their combinations obtained at the initial screening visit for identifying Chinese children and adolescents with hypertension. Participants were 7831 children and adolescents aged 6‐17 years measured as part of a cross‐sectional survey conducted in Jinan, China between September 2012 and November 2014. BP was measured three times at up to three visits. Elevated BP at the initial visit was defined as systolic BP and/or diastolic BP ≥ age‐ and sex‐specific 95th percentiles using the Chinese BP references for children and adolescents based on different BP readings and their combinations. Participants with elevated BP using (BP2+BP3)/2 across three visits were defined as having hypertension. Of the different readings or combinations examined, the mean of the last two readings at the initial visit had the best predictive utility for children and adolescents with hypertension (sensitivity: 100.0% specificity: 86.9% positive predictive value: 27.6% negative predictive value: 100.0%). This was also reflected in the area under the curve being highest for the mean of the last two readings (0.93, 95% confidence interval: 0.93‐0.94) compared with any of the other readings or combinations (BP1, BP2, BP3, [BP1+BP2]/2, [BP1+BP3]/2, and [BP1+BP2+BP3]/3 all p .001). Taking three measurements of BP and using the average of the last two readings at a screening visit may be optimal for the identification of hypertension in youth.

Abstract: To determine the association between recommended physical activity according to the 2018 physical activity guidelines for Americans and all cause and cause specific mortality using a nationally representative s le of US adults. Population based cohort study. National Health Interview Survey (1997-2014) with linkage to the National Death Index records to 31 December 2015. 479 856 adults aged 18 years or older. Participant self-reports of the amount of leisure time spent in aerobic physical activity and muscle strengthening activity each week were combined and categorised into four groups: insufficient activity, aerobic activity only, muscle strengthening only, and both aerobic and muscle strengthening activities according to the physical activity guidelines. All cause mortality and cause specific mortality (cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic lower respiratory tract diseases, accidents and injuries, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes mellitus, influenza and pneumonia, and nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, or nephrosis) obtained from the National Death Index records. During a median follow-up of 8.75 years, 59 819 adults died from all causes, 13 509 from cardiovascular disease, 14 375 from cancer, 3188 from chronic lower respiratory tract diseases, 2477 from accidents and injuries, 1470 from Alzheimer’s disease, 1803 from diabetes mellitus, 1135 from influenza and pneumonia, and 1129 from nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, or nephrosis. Compared with those who did not meet the physical activity guidelines (n=268 193), those who engaged in recommended muscle strengthening activity (n=21 428 hazard ratio 0.89, 95% confidence interval 0.85 to 0.94) or aerobic activity (n=113 851 0.71, 0.69 to 0.72) were found to be at reduced risk of all cause mortality and even larger survival benefits were found in those engaged in both activities (n=76 384 0.60, 0.57 to 0.62). In addition, similar patterns were reported for cause specific mortality from cardiovascular disease, cancer, and chronic lower respiratory tract diseases. Adults who engage in leisure time aerobic and muscle strengthening activities at levels recommended by the 2018 physical activity guidelines for Americans show greatly reduced risk of all cause and cause specific mortality. These data suggest that the physical activity levels recommended in the guidelines are associated with important survival benefits.

Abstract: It is well-known that secondhand smoke exposure in childhood or adolescence is positively associated with morbidity and mortality. However, less is known about the current status of and most recent trends in secondhand smoke exposure among adolescents in China. We aimed to assess recent changes in the prevalence of secondhand smoke exposure among adolescents in China using nationally representative data. We used data from 2 repeated national cross-sectional surveys conducted in 2013-2014 and 2019. A total of 155,117 students (median age 13.5 years) in 2013-2014 and 147,270 students (median age 13.1 years) in 2019 were included in this study. Sociodemographic factors and secondhand smoke exposure information were collected via a standardized questionnaire. Exposure was defined as secondhand smoke exposure ≥1 day during the past 7 days at home or in public places. Other frequencies of secondhand smoke exposure (ie, ≥3 days, ≥5 days, and every day) during the past 7 days were also assessed. The weighted prevalence of secondhand smoke exposure was calculated according to the complex s le design for surveys. The prevalence of secondhand smoke exposure in any place (home or public places ≥1 day during the past 7 days) decreased from 2013-2014 (72.9%, 95% CI 71.5%-74.3%) to 2019 (63.2%, 95% CI 62%-64.5%), as did exposure at home (2013-2014: 44.4%, 95% CI 43.1%-45.7% 2019: 34.1%, 95% CI 33.1%-35.2%) and in public places (2013-2014: 68.3%, 95% CI 66.9%-69.6% 2019: 57.3%, 95% CI 56%-58.6%). The prevalence of secondhand smoke exposure decreased with increased gross domestic product per capita in each of the 2 survey years irrespective of exposure frequency or location. The prevalence of exposure at other frequencies (ie, ≥3 days, ≥5 days, or every day during the past 7 days) also decreased in any place, at home, and in public places. Secondhand smoke exposure was associated with higher school grade level (ninth vs seventh grade: odds ratio [OR] 1.76, 95% CI 1.68-1.84), gender (boys vs girls: OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.15-1.22), urban status (urban vs rural: OR 1.10, 95% CI 1.01-1.19), and cigarette smoking (yes vs no: OR 6.67, 95% CI 5.83-7.62). Although the prevalence of secondhand smoke exposure among Chinese adolescents declined from 2013-2014 to 2019, it remains unacceptably high. More effective strategies and stronger action are needed in China to further, and dramatically, curb secondhand smoke exposure among adolescents.
