OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to identify factors associated with initiation and adherence of osteoporosis medication from a patient perspective. METHODS: A web-based survey was developed based on health behavior theories. Descriptive analyses were conducted for all survey items. Analyses in a structural equation modeling framework were conducted to identify factors associated with treatment initiation and adherence. RESULTS: Five hundred forty-five women completed the questionnaire. A majority were currently receiving medications for osteoporosis (n = 376, 69.0%) and 25.0% of these patients (n = 94) were considered adherent to their treatment. Knowledge was strongly associated with osteoporosis treatment initiation (standard error [SE], 0.58). Greater knowledge of disease was associated with increased likelihood of initiating medication. Medication complexity (SE, 0.49) and perceived susceptibility to fracture and loss of independence (SE, −0.37) were also associated with initiation. Perceived barriers (SE, −0.85) such as inconvenience, lack of efficacy and financial burden were observed to be the greatest obstacle to adherence. The greater the perceived barriers, the less likely patients were to adhere to medication. Patients' perception of self-efficacy (SE, 0.37) also affected adherence. The greater the patient perception of ability to independently manage their medication, the more likely they were to adhere to the medication. CONCLUSIONS: Different factors were found to be associated with initiation and adherence of osteoporosis medication. Patient knowledge of their disease and the perception of barriers were found to be the most influential. Empowering patients with the knowledge to better understand their disease and decreasing the perception of barriers through education initiatives may be effective in improving patient outcomes.

Objective:
To explore the impact of online sexuality education courses on the sexual knowledge, attitudes and related behaviors of rural girls, so as to provide the practical guidance for promoting sexual health and development.
Methods:
From February to June 2023, by posting information online and through commonweal organization websites, rural primary schools in 12 provinces were recruited for a semester of online sexuality education courses from October to November 2023. A self compiled sexuality education questionnaire was used to survey the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of rural girls before and after the course intervention, with pre tests in September 2023 and post tests in December 2023. The eligible samples were 3 058 and 2 602 , respectively. Independent sample t tests and text frequency and sentiment analysis were used to process the data
Results:
In terms of sexual knowledge, the scores of rural girls before and after the test were (8.49±3.29) and (9.40±3.35), respectively, with the post test score being higher than the pre test ( t =-10.20, P <0.01). In terms of attitudes, the scores of rural girls before and after the test were (11.50±4.62) and (10.82±4.80), respectively, with a decrease in stigmatization towards physiological development in the post test ( t =5.40, P <0.01). Regarding sexual related behaviors, the frequency of sexualbased bullying among rural girls was (5.12±2.13) before and (4.89±2.18) after, with a statistically significant difference ( t =3.99, P <0.01). The frequency and willingness of rural girls to discuss sexual topics with significant others both increased on post test (pre test:8.45±2.62; post test: 8.73± 2.62) and (pre test:8.90±2.46, post test:9.16±2.46), with a statistically significant difference ( t =-3.91, -4.03, P < 0.01 ). Text analysis revealed that "boys" "girls" and "menstruation" were the most concerned topics among the participants, and compared to before receiving sex education (69.91%), the proportion of negative emotions among rural girls decreased ( 18.59 %).
Conclusion
Online sexuality education courses can improve the sexual knowledge of rural girls, reduce stigma and negative emotions towards sex, decrease the incidence of sexual based bullying and increase the frequency and willingness to discuss sexual topics with parents, teachers, and peers.
