Objective:
To investigate the current status and influencing factors of knowledge, attitude, and practice of hypertension prevention and control among rural residents in Shanxi Province, so as to provide insights into implementation of health education pertaining to hypertension control in rural areas.
Methods:
A total of 7 403 residents were sampled using a multi-stage cluster random sampling method from rural areas of Yangqu, Daning, and Yonghe counties of Shanxi Province from November 2020 to July 2021 for face-to-face questionnaire surveys and physical examinations. Residents' basic characteristics, knowledge, attitude, and practice of hypertension prevention and control, and height, weight, blood pressure were collected, and factors affecting knowledge, attitude, and practice of hypertension prevention and control were identified using a generalized linear model.
Results:
A total of 7 403 questionnaires were allocated, and 7 031 effective questionnaires were recovered, with an effective response rate of 94.98%. The respondents included 3 035 men (43.17%) and 3 996 women (56.83%), and had a mean age of (58.45±13.75) years. The median scores of hypertension prevention and control knowledge, attitude and practice were 5 (interquartile range, 4), 16 (interquartile range, 5) and 14 (interquartile range, 7) points, with scoring percentages of 48.40%, 80.55% and 54.41%, respectively. Generalized linear model analysis showed that an educational level of junior high school and above, annual family income per capita of ≥4 000 RMB, family history of hypertension, development of hypertension among family members or friends, overweight/obesity and presence of depression resulted in high scores for hypertension prevention and control knowledge; annual family income per capita of ≥10 000 RMB, family history of hypertension, presence of hypertension among family members or friends, mild/severe insomnia and presence of depression resulted in high scores for hypertension prevention and control attitude, while age of ≥65 years and blood pressure of ≥140/≥90 mmHg resulted in low scores for attitude; females, age of ≥45 years, an educational level of junior high school and above, blood pressure of ≥140/≥90 mmHg, family history of hypertension, presence of hypertension among family members or friends and overweight/obesity resulted in high scores for hypertension prevention and control practice, and residents had a low body weight had a low score for practice (all P<0.05).
Conclusions
The hypertension prevention and control attitude is satisfactory among rural residents in Shanxi Province; however, the hypertension prevention and control knowledge and practice are poor. Health education pertaining to hypertension prevention and control should be strengthened, and personalized health education is needed targeting individuals with a low educational level and low income.

Objective To investigate feasibility of laparoscopic anatomical nerve sparing radical hysterectomy (LANSRH) used for locally advanced cervical cancer treatment and evaluate early recovery of bladder function postoperatively. Methods From October 2006 to September 2007, 37 cervical cancer patients with stage Ⅰb1 to Ⅱ a underwent LANSRH(LANSRH group) with pelvic lymphadenectomy matched 25 patients with cervical cancer treated by general laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH,LRH group) with pelvic lymphadenectomy. The data of operating time, blood loss, numbers of lymph node, the length of resected vaginal and paracervix tissue were collected and compared. In the mean time, postoperative recovery of bladder function was evaluated. Results The laparoscopic anatomic nerve-sparing procedure was performed successfully and safely among all patients. (1) There was no remarkable difference in the following clinical parameters between LANSRH and LRH group: median operating time [(175±41) min vs. (178±30) min, P=0.72 ], blood loss [(233±104)ml vs. (218±77) ml, P=0.06], numbers of lymph nodes (13±4 vs. 15±6, P=0.16), resected length of paracervix tissue [(3.6±0.5)cm vs. (3.7±0.6) cm, P=0.43], resected length of vaginal tissue [(3.5±1.0)cm vs. (3.5±0.8) cm, P=0.80]. (2) The mean time of the Foley catheter removed was (10.6±2.7)days(7-17 days)in LANSRH group and (17.2±4.2)days(9-25 days)in LRH group (P=0.02). After Foley catheter removed, 95% (35/37) presented bladder fulfilling sense, 86% (32/37) presented automatic micturition and urination emptying in LANSRH group. However, In LRH group, 88% (22/25) presented bladder fulfilling sense, 76% (19/25) presented automatic micturition and urination emptying. The bladder void function recovery were 68% (25/37) in class 0 and 3% (1/37) in class Ⅱ in LANSRH group, when compared with 40% (10/25) in class 0 and 12% (3/25) in class Ⅱ in LRH group, it reached statistical difference (P<0.05). In the mean time, there was no significant difference in Class Ⅰ bladder void function recovery, which were 24% (9/37) and 48% (12/25). (3) No surgery complications and blood transfusion were observed in LANSRH and LRH group. Postoperative pathology suggested that no tumor cell invasion occurred in paracervix tissue and lymph nodes. During the range of 11 to 19 months follow-up, all patients were alive without tumor recurrence and metastasis. Conclusion LANSRH is safe and feasible surgical management for cervical cancer at early stage and would improve the recovery of bladder voiding function postoperatively by sparing anatomical nerve.
