Our objective was to investigate the status and influence of myopia among primary school students in Fushun, Liaoning Province, China. We aimed to provide a theoretical and epistemological basis for implementing myopia prevention initiatives. We employed cluster sampling and surveyed 5216 primary school students from grades 1-6 across eight primary schools in Fushun City. Our participants included 2606 males and 2610 females whose average age was 9.25 ( = 1.76) years. The rate of myopia among these primary school students was 29.54%, with statistically significant differences among students of different genders and grades. Logistic regression analysis further identified several possible protective factors, including appropriate reading distance, adequate home lighting, regular breaks between classes, conscientious eye exercises, and daily outdoor physical activity. Conversely, the associated risk factors were being female, being in a higher grade level, spending more than 4 hours on homework, occasionally reading while lying down, and having one or both parents with myopia. Overall, our results indicated a high incidence of myopia, highlighting the need for scientifically controlled interventions to manage and mitigate the occurrence and progression of myopia in this population.
我们的目标是调查中国辽宁省抚顺市小学生近视的现状及影响。我们旨在为实施近视预防举措提供理论和认识论基础。我们采用整群抽样方法，对抚顺市八所小学一至六年级的5216名小学生进行了调查。我们的参与者包括2606名男生和2610名女生，平均年龄为9.25（标准差 = 1.76）岁。这些小学生的近视率为29.54%，不同性别和年级的学生之间存在统计学上的显著差异。逻辑回归分析进一步确定了几个可能的保护因素，包括合适的阅读距离、充足的家庭照明、课间定期休息、认真做眼保健操以及每日户外体育活动。相反，相关的风险因素包括女性、高年级、做作业时间超过4小时、偶尔躺着看书以及父母一方或双方患有近视。总体而言，我们的结果表明近视发病率很高，突出了采取科学控制干预措施来管理和减轻该人群近视发生和发展的必要性。
