Objective:To explore the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of reported incidence of schizophrenia in Ningbo from 2018 to 2022 and to provide a scientific basis for rational allocation of mental health resources and comprehensive prevention and treatment of schizophrenia.Methods:The reported incidence data of schizophrenia from 2018 to 2022 were collected from Ningbo's mental health information management system, and the reported incidence was calculated by township. The spatial correlation analysis and the spatiotemporal scan analysis were used to study the spatiotemporal distribution of schizophrenia.Results:The reported incidence of schizophrenia decreased from 2018 to 2022, with 4 133 new cases reported, and the annual average reported incidence was 9.76/100 000. Global and local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed positive spatial correlations and hot spots in 2018-2020. The space-time scan analysis showed an incidence cluster in Dongqiao Town, Haishu District, during 2018-2019. The RR was 2.46, and the log-likelihood ratio was 256.89. Conclusions:The reported incidence of schizophrenia in Ningbo has obvious temporal and spatial aggregation, and the high incidence area explored can provide clues for further research on the correlation between environmental factors and the incidence of schizophrenia and has certain guiding significance for the rational allocation of mental health resources in Ningbo.

Objective Under the background of"breaking the Five-Only"and the evaluation reform of healthcare professionals'titles,it analyzed the willingness of healthcare professionals in public hospitals to disseminate health knowledge and its incentives and constraints.Furthermore,it explored potential pathways to improve the willingness of healthcare professionals to popular science and disseminate health knowledge.Methods From November to Decem-ber 2022,a self-designed online questionnaire was used to survey healthcare professionals in four tertiary hospitals in Shanghai.The questionnaire included basic information of healthcare professionals,analysis of the current situa-tion and demands of healthcare professionals in health knowledge dissemination,willingness of healthcare profes-sionals to disseminate health knowledge and influencing factors.Results A total of 762 healthcare professionals partici-pated in this survey,79.9%(608/762)expressed willingness to promote the dissemination of health knowledge.A multiple-factor logistic regression analysis revealed that intermediate professional title,achieving personal value and so-cial responsibility,increasing patient resources,professional title promotion,science promotion-related awards,being included in performance appraisals,and difficulty in capturing science promotion skills were the influential factors affecting the dissemination of health knowledge among healthcare professionals(P＜0.05).Conclusion The willing-ness of healthcare professionals to disseminate health knowledge was strong,and hospitals should motivate health-care professionals to disseminate health knowledge through building a long-term incentive mechanism,strengthening training in science popularization ability,and improving humanistic qualities.
