Objectives: To understand the prevalence and risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD) among freshmen from a university in Hunan Province in 2018.
Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted on 1 685 freshmen from a university in Hunan Province in 2018. Height, weight, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, creatinine, uric acid, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, blood urea nitrogen, and other laboratory indicators were measured. The risk factors of hematuria, proteinuria, and CKD were analyzed by logistic regression.
Results: Among the 1 685 students, the detection rates of proteinuria, hematuria, and renal dysfunction were 2.14%, 6.65%, and 0.95%, respectively. The prevalence of CKD was 10.86%, mainly at stage 1 and 2. The awareness rate in the patients was 6.56%. The detection rate of proteinuria was not significantly correlated with gender, and the detection rate of hematuria and renal dysfunction was higher in women than in men, and the prevalence of CKD was higher in women than in men. Independent risk factors associated with CKD were hypertension and diabetes.
Conclusions: In 2018, the prevalence of CKD among freshmen in this university is roughly the same as the national level. CKD patients and people with hypertension and diabetes should be checked regularly, and early intervention should be performed to delay the occurrence and development of the disease.

Problematic smartphone use (PSU) has emerged as a pressing concern among college students, with cumulative ecological risk identified as a crucial yet enigmatic contributor. To unravel its underlying mechanisms, we devised and validated a model that delves into the mediating roles of performance and learning goal orientations, as well as the moderating influence of psychological resilience. Our investigation encompassed 2011 Chinese college students spanning from freshmen to seniors, aged 16 to 25, utilizing comprehensive scales to assess various constructs.

This study aimed to analyze the effect of different intervention strategies in physical education classes on the reduction of sedentary time. This is a randomized, school-based intervention with factorial characteristics, carried out with freshmen high school students from 11 full-time schools, allocated in three intervention situations: (A) schools with two extra physical education classes per week; (B) schools with training and engagement actions for physical education teachers; (C) Schools with both A and B strategies; and (D) a group of control schools. Accelerometry was used to obtain the effect measure of the main outcome (sedentary behavior).
