Improve sleep quality and promote healthy growth of adolescents

<p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" dir="auto" id="d7218039e80">Sleep quality is crucial to the physical and mental health of adolescents. High-quality sleep plays a crucial role in bodily repair and recovery of adolescents, as it promotes physical development, cognitive function, emotional regulation and social adaptability. However, sleep quality problems are common among adolescents globally, mainly manifesting in sleep deprivation and difficulties in sleeping. Based on the characteristics of adolescent physical and mental development as well as the real conditions, interventions should be implemented to improve their physical activity, nutritional intake and psychological well-being for addressing sleep issues, thereby effectively promoting physical and mental health development, as well as enhancing the health and well-being of adolescents. </p><p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" class="first" dir="auto" id="d7218039e83"> <b>【摘要】</b> 睡眠质量对于青少年身心健康至关重要, 髙质量的睡眠不仅有助于青少年身体的修复与恢复, 还能有效促进身 体发育、认知功能、情绪调节及社会适应能力等方面的发展。目前世界范围内, 青少年普遍存在睡眠质量问题, 主要表现为 睡眠不足、人睡困难等。基于青少年身心发育特征以及现实条件, 应通过提髙青少年体力活动水平、改善营养状况、提升心 理健康等方法和途径, 积极干预青少年睡眠状况, 从而有效促进青少年身心健康发展, 增进青少年健康福祉。 </p>

Meta-analysis of physical activity on the improvement of health-related quality of life among children and adolescents

<p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" dir="auto" id="d7216999e118"> <b>Objective</b> To systematically review the effect of physical activity (PA) on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among children and adolescents and the magnitude of association, so as to provide an evidence-based support for optimizing health promotion strategies for children and adolescents. </p><p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" dir="auto" id="d7216999e123"> <b>Methods</b> Medline (PubMed), EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, SClELO, PEDro, CNKl, Wanfang and VIP databases were searched to collect literature on PA and HRQoL in children and adolescents, which were published up to January 1, 2025. Cochrane ROB tool and specific evaluation system were used to assess literature quality, Stata 16.0 software was used for Meta-analysis. For descriptive studies, correlation ( <i>r</i>) and 95% confidence interval ( <i>CI</i>) were used as effect indicators, and the inverse variance method was used to merge the data. Standardized mean difference( <i>SMD</i>) and 95% <i>CI</i> were used to calculate the combined effect size of intervention studies. </p><p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" dir="auto" id="d7216999e140"> <b>Results</b> A total of 22 studies involving 27 303 healthy children and adolescents were included, including 9 descriptive studies and 13 intervention studies. The results of descriptive analysis showed that PA level was positively correlated with HRQoL ( <i>r</i> = 0.27, 95% <i>CI</i> = 0.21-0.32, <i>P</i><0.01). The analysis of intervention studies showed that PA had significant effects on overall HRQoL ( <i>SMD</i> = 0.10, 95% <i>CI</i> = 0.05-0.16), physical functioning ( <i>SMD</i> = 0.16, 95% <i>CI</i> = 0.08-0.23), and mental functioning ( <i>SMD</i> = 0.17, 95% <i>CI</i> = 0.10-0.25) ( <i>P</i><0.01). Subgroup analysis found that the effects of physical activity on overall HRQoL, physiological function, and psychological function in children and adolescents were maximized when the intervention duration was less than 6 months ( <i>SMD</i> = 0.13, 0.18, 0.20), the frequency was ≥5 times per week ( <i>SMD</i> = 0.13, 0.19, 0.24) and there was a supplementary plan ( <i>SMD</i> = 0.10, 0.18, 0.23)( <i>P</i><0.01). </p><p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" dir="auto" id="d7216999e189"> <b>Conclusion</b> PA is an important factor affecting the HRQoL of healthy children and adolescents, and the systematic PA intervention has a effect on improving the HRQoL. </p><p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" class="first" dir="auto" id="d7216999e195"> <b>【摘要】</b> <b>目的</b>系统评价身体活动(PA)对儿童青少年健康相关生活质量(HRQoL)的影响及其关联程度, 为优化儿童青 少年健康促进策略提供循证依据。 <b>方法</b> 检索Medline (PubMed)、EMBASE、the Cochrane Library、SClELO、PEDro、中国知 网、万方和维普数据库, 收集建库至2025年1月1日关于儿童青少年PA与HRQoL的文献。根据Cochmne ROB工具及特 定评价体系评估文献质量, Stata 16.0软件用于Meta分析。描述性研究采用相关值( <i>r</i>)及95%置信区间( <i>CI</i>)为效应指标, 借助倒方差法进行合并, 标准化均数差( <i>SMD</i>)和95% <i>CI</i>计算干预性研究的合并效应量。 <b>结果</b> 共纳入22篇文献(27 303 名健康儿童青少年), 包括9篇描述性研究和13篇干预性研究。描述性研究分析结果显示, PA水平与HRQoL呈正相关 ( <i>r</i> = 0.27,95% <i>CI</i> =0.21〜0.32, 尸<0.01)。干预性研究分析表明, PA 对总体 HRQoL ( <i>SMD</i> = 0.10,95% <i>CI</i> =0.05〜0.16)、生理功 能( <i>SMD</i> = 0.16,95% <i>CI</i> =0.08〜0.23)和心理功能( <i>SMD</i> = 0.17,95% <i>CI</i> = 0.10〜0.25)均有改善效果( <i>P</i>值均<0.01)。亚组分析 发现, 身体活动对儿童青少年总体HRQoL、生理功能和心理功能方面的影响, 在干预时长<6个月( <i>SMD</i>值分别为0.13, 0.18,0.20)、频率≥5次/周( <i>SMD</i>值分别为0.13,0.19,0.24)、有补充方案( <i>SMD</i>值分别为0.10,0.18,0.23)时达到改善效益 最大化( <i>P</i>值均<0.01)。 <b>结论</b> PA是影响健康儿童青少年HRQoL的重要因素, 系统化的PA干预对提升HRQoL具有促进 作用。 </p>
