Objective To investigate the quality of life of army recruits in their basic military training period,and to analyze the influence of job burnout and work satisfaction on their quality of life.Methods A total of 625 recruits enrolled in 2014 of Xinjiang Army troop were chosen as subjects in this study by stratified cluster random sampling.Quality of life was assessed by Chinese version SF-36(Short-Form Health Survey Scale),job burnout was assessed by Chinese version Maslach Burnout inventory general survey (MBI-GS) and work satisfaction was assessed by Chinese version Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ).Results The scores of PCS and MCS about 597 recruits were (85.93±12.62) and (81.10±14.12) respectively.According to demographic characteristics,the score of physiological function was lower than that of non-smoking group (t=2.009,P<0.05),the score of role physical was lower than that of non-smoking group (t=2.617,P<0.05),and the score of PCS was lower than that of non-smoking group (t=2.141,P<0.05).As to except reported health transition,there were negative correlations between emotional exhaustion,depersonalization and other SF-36 scales (r=-0.344~-0.661,P<0.01) respectively.There were negative correlations between personal accomplishment and vitality (r=-0.204,P<0.05),role emotional (r=-0.239,P<0.05),mental health (r=-0.289,P<0.05) and MCS (r=-0.276,P<0.05) respectively.Work satisfaction and quality of life was positively correlated (r=0.243~0.635,P<0.01).As to the independent variable,regression analysis showed that emotional exhaustion (β=-4.732,P<0.01),Minnesota external satisfaction (β=0.783,P<0.01) influenced PCS,the difference was statistically significant.Emotional exhaustion(β=-6.534,P<0.01),pre-enlistment place of residence (β=-5.319,P< 0.05),Minnesota external satisfaction (β=0.813,P<0.01)influenced MCS,the difference was statistically significant.Conclusion Job burnout and work satisfaction influence the quality of life about the army recruits,the more job burnout signify the lower quality of life,and its influence on mental health is more significant.The higher work satisfaction signify the higher quality of life.

This investigation was to assess the prevalence and risk factors of hypertension in 35 to 70 years old adults living in Xicheng District of Beijing. Cluster sampling was conducted in 2230 adults, and only 1958 individuals agreed to enter into the study. Written informed consents were obtained before questionnaire and physical examination. A total of 1889 data were used for analysis. The prevalence rate of hypertension was 47.8% (n=902). The age-standardized prevalence rate was 40. 1%. Hypertension was seen in 368 men (53.0%) and 534 women (44.7%) (P=0.0005). The rates of disease awareness, treatment, and control were 47.5%, 38.5%, and 24.1%, respectively. The prevalence of hypertension increased with age (P<0.0001). Linear trend was found between body mass index (BMI) and systolic blood pressure (P<0.0001). In multiple logistic model analysis, the hypertension risk for men was 1.33 times that of women (95% CI, 1.08-1.64), for participants with obesity was 2.81 times that of those with normal weight (95%CI, 2.00-3.97). Hypertension has become one of the most concerned public health problems in the district. Middle-aged people should pay attention to changed blood pressure, especial for overweight men. Health promotion should be needed for hypertension prevention. More attention should be paid to substantial increase in hypertension.

Objective:
To investigate the fatigue status of military personnel stationed in plateau and high cold region, and to analyze the mediator effect of trait coping style on job stress and fatigue.
Methods:
In October 2010, with the method of cluster random sampling survey, 531 military personnel stationed in plateau and high cold region were chosen as subject. The fatigue status were evaluated by the Chinese version multidimensional fatigue inventory (MFI-20) , job stress were evaluated by the Job Stress Survey (JSS) , and trait coping style were evaluated by the Trait Coping Style Questionnaire (TCSQ) .
Results:
According to the information of different population characteristics, mean rank of physical fatigue about the urban (town) group were higher than that of rural group (

Objective To explore the effects of job content on psychological stress in young recruits.Methods In October 2014,625 young recruits enrolled in one troop of Xinjiang Military Command in 2014 were chosen as subjects by multi-stage stratified random sampling.The Chinese version of the job content questionnaire (JCQ) and the psychological stress self evaluation test (PEST) were used to investigate the subjects.The subjects were divided into two groups with scores higher and lower than the mean score of three subscales (job requirement,degree of autonomy,and social support) of JCQ to explore the effects of job content on psychological stress in young recruits.The correlation of psychological stress with three subscales of job content was evaluated using the Pearson's correlation analysis.Binary logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors for psychological stress.Results The PEST score of young recruits was 49.98± 9.98.Forty-five (7.68%) out of them had scores of ≥70 points and were diagnosed with high levels of psychological stress.When the subjects were grouped based on socio-demographic characteristics,a high level of psychological stress was significantly more frequent in subjects less than 20 years of age than in those not less than 20 years of age,in smoking subjects than in non-smoking subjects,and in urban residents than in rural residents (10.42% vs 5.03%,P<0.05;10.14% vs 5.33%,P<0.05;10.85% vs 5.88%,P <0.05).There were no significant differences in educational level or identity before recruitment between subjects with different levels of psychological stress (P>0.05).In various job content domains that had impacts on psychological stress,subjects with a low score of social support had significantly higher PEST scores than those with a high score of social support (50.96±10.35 vs 48.49±9.22,P<0.01).The PEST score was negatively correlated with the degree of autonomy and social support(r=-0.103,P<0.05;r=-0.239,P<0.05).The results of logistic regression analysis showed that job requirement and social support were influencing factors for psychological stress (OR =0.718,95%CI=0.718 (0.607~0.851),P<0.05;OR=1.185,95%CI=1.185 (1.087~1.292),P<0.05).Conclusion Psychological stress of young recruits in army is not optimistic.Psychological stress is weakly negatively correlated with social support.The low scores on job requirement subscale and social support subscale may be potential protective factor and risk factor for psychological stress,respectively.
