Objective: To learn the health literacy status, trend and associated factors of Ningbo residents from 2015 to 2019, so as to provide basis for developing health policies and interventions. Methods: The monitoring data of health literacy of Ningbo residents from 2015 to 2019 was collected. The health literacy level was calculated and standardized by the population data of the sixth national census of Ningbo in 2010; five-year absolute growth and growth rate were used to reflect the changing trend. Multivariate logistic regression model was employed to analyze the influencing factors for the health literacy level. Results: The health literacy levels from 2015 to 2019 were 15.44%, 21.73%, 22.41%, 27.60% and 30.03%, with an annual increase trend ( P<0.05 ). The five-year absolute growth and growth rate were 14.59% and 94.49%. The Results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the year ( OR=1.158, 95%CI: 1.132-1.184 ), age ( 25-<35岁 years, OR=1.235, 95%CI: 1.039-1.468; 35-<45岁 years, OR=1.416, 95%CI: 1.193-1.681; 45-<55岁 years, OR=1.221, 95%CI: 1.024-1.455 ) , education level ( primary school, OR=1.790, 95%CI: 1.461-2.195; junior high school, OR=2.574, 95%CI: 2.102-3.154; high school/vocational high school/technical secondary school, OR=4.863, 95%CI: 3.943-5.998; college or above, OR=8.829, 95%CI: 7.109-10.965 ) , urban areas ( OR=0.934, 95%CI: 0.874-0.998 ) and occupation ( farmers, OR=0.692, 95%CI: 0.608-0.787; workers, OR=0.746, 95%CI: 0.664-0.837; enterprise staff, OR=0.822, 95%CI: 0.745-0.906; others, OR=1.106, 95%CI: 1.009-1.211 ) were the influencing factors for health literacy level. Conclusion The health literacy level of Ningbo residents shows an upward trend from 2015 to 2019, which are associated with age, education level, area and occupation.

Objective Measuring job satisfaction level of community health workers,providing on the evidences for the design of the relevant policy and the evaluation of job effect.Methods 57 Community Health Service centers and 54 stations were randomly selected in 12 cities in Anhui province,and all staff on the job were investigated.The questionnaires were delivered to the working staff and anonymously filled in by them.Results The total job satisfaction average score of the staff is 110.84± 18.18.The average score of pay(10.05±2.99),welfare(10.35±3.17)and promotion(10.85±3.00)are rather low.The average score of coworkers(14.78±2.11),nature of work(14.60±2.69)and supervision (13.90±3.00)are quite high.Logistic regression analysis shows the staff's duration and title are the main factors affecting their overall job satisfaction.Conclusion The overall job satisfaction level of community health workers is not high.Establishing the reasonable system of pay,welfare mechanism and the predictable promotion space are feasible choices to promote job satisfaction of community health workers

The efficacy and safety of uric-acid-lowering therapy (UALT) on slowing the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) accompanied by hyperuricemia were assessed. We searched Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, CNKI, Wanfang and Vip databases up to November 15, 2012 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) which compared the effect of UALT to control therapy in hyperuricemic patients secondary to CKD, and then performed quality evaluation and meta-analysis on the included studies. Seven RCTs involving 451 cases were included. UALT delayed the increase of serum creatinine (MD=-62.55 μmol/L, 95% CI: -98.10 to -26.99) and blood urea nitrogen (MD= -6.15 mmol/L, 95% CI: -8.17 to -4.13) as well as the decrease of glomerular filtration rate [MD=5.65 mL/(min·1.73 m2), 95% CI: 1.88 to 9.41], decreased systolic blood pressure (SBP) (MD= -6.08 mmHg, 95% CI: -11.67 to -0.49), and reduced the risk of the renal disease progression (RR=0.30, 95% CI: 0.19 to 0.46). However, there was no statistically significant difference in 24-h urinary protein quantity and diastolic blood pressure (P>0.05). We identified that UALT could delay the progression of CKD with secondary hyperuricemia. And this also indirectly proved that hyperuricemia was a risk factor for the CKD progression.

HBeAg is an ungranular secretory protein,which encoded by C gene of HBV DNA and it increases with the replication of HBV. So it is one of the markers of active replication of HBV in clinical diagnosis. HBeAg is important biologic raw materials which is widely used in preparation of related diagnostic articles with HBV infection serological detection. The technology of expression and purification of recombinant HBeAg is quite mature,which had successfully expressed the target protein in various expression systems. The key factors on HBeAg expression include important site mutation in precore region ,the choice of vectors,effects of RNA interference(RNAi)and so on. Therefore,in order to meet requirements of related diagnostic products,it need to improve expression level and purity of recombinant HBeAg and avoid cross-reaction with HBcAg. In a word,it showed that acquisition of high quality recombinant HBeAg could lay substantial foundation for improving diagnostic products,provide a reliable evidence for exploiting new type of therapeutic and preventive HBV vaccine and offer possibility of HBeAb detection methodological optimization.

According to morphological and microscopic characteristics, a high-efficient decolorizing fungus, the strain Asaw117, was identified as Aspergillus awamori. Selecting eight different dyes from Azo dyes, anthraquinones dyes and oxygen Quinones dyes, the decolorizing assays of various dyes showed that the strain Asaw 117 was the highest decolorizing potential to 0.1 g/L Vat Blue RSN, the discoloration rate up to 100 percent. Comparing to different kinds of medium and several of carbon and nitrogen sources, the strain had the best decolorizing efficient although grew slower in the Czapek medium, otherwise, grew quicker and decolorizing efficient lower in the PDF medium. It could use Vat Blue RSN as a nitrogen source, but not as a carbon source. The medium composing of saccharose and ammonium nitrate as carbon and nitrogen sources was decolorizing potential markedly during different combinations of carbon and nitrogen sources. So the strain has good potential for the dyeing wastewater treatment

Objective Through early systemic nursing intervention of cervical cancer patients for promotion of the recovery of urinary bladder function, to remove the urethral catheter in advance,and reduce the occurrence of urinary bladder dysfunction. Methods 80 cervical cancer patients after total hysterectomy were divided into the treatment group and the control group with 40 cases in each group stochastically. The treatment group was given systemic nursing( psychological nursing,pelvis bottom muscles exercising,urination discontinuance exercising,abdominal muscle exercising,Valsalva maneuver exercising, Crede press exercising,open the urethral catheter timely and individually,cheiropractic with hot roller), the control group received conventional nursing and some simple training of urinary bladder function. The time of indwelling urethral catheter after the hysterectomy was compared. Results The time of indwelling urethral catheter in the treatment group and in the control group were (9.65±49)days and (15.88±03)days respectively. The incidence rate of residual urine,urine retention and infection of urinary system after surgery in the treatment group was lower than that of the control group. Conclusions Early systemic nursing intervention can shorten the time of indwelling urethral catheter after hysterectomy, reduce the occurrence of urinary bladder dysfunction .improve the surgery effect for the cervical cancer patients and ameliorate their quality of life.

BACKGROUND: Xinjiang is a multi-ethnic region with significant differences in local geographical position, economic development and climatic environment. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the occurrence and development tendency of birth defects, disease categories and disparity among different ethnic groups and regions in Xinjiang.METHODS: A stratified cluster random sampling observation was performed in 13 counties (cities) according to the status of ethnical distribution and local economics of Xinjiang. Quarter Report Sheet on Babies and The defect babies register card were filled as the scheme of Chinese birth defect monitoring, and ICD10 diagnostic code was adopted in birth defect diagnosis. The birth defects rate was calculated from January 2005 to December 2008, and the disease categories and disparity among different ethnic groups and regions in Xinjiang were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The average incidence rate of birth defect was 9.74‰, which was dramatically descended in 2006 and ascended afterward yearly. The incidence rate of countryside was higher than city, and male more than female. In geography, south of Tianshan Mountain was higher than north and east in birth defect incidence. Among major ethnic groups in Xinjiang, Sibe and Uygur had the highest birth defect incidence rate, followed by Man, Hazakh, and Han. The birth defect incidence of Han, Uygur and Hazakh people showed descend tendency, Hui, Mongolia, and Man people fluctuated, yet Sibe's rate had a change of rise and fall. The first five birth defect entities were neural tube deformity, cleft lips, anencephaly, congenital hydrocephalus and cleft palate combined with cleft lips. The birth defects rates are different from ethnic groups and regions in Xinjiang.
