Adding the qualification examination of rural general practicing assistant doctors conforms to the needs of the rural doctors practicing medicine according to law.It benefits to the progress of practicing physician and improves the rural doctors'quality.Meanwhile, it has great significance in standardized management and stabilize the rural doctors.The villages and towns examination of practicing assistant doctors'qualification examination as an exam-ple, current relevant laws and policies provided legal basis.Meanwhile, the object of policy implementation that rural doctors desire the policy.This three aspects make adding the qualification examination of rural general practicing as-sistant doctors is feasible.In order to guarantee the practicing physicians process of rural doctors, we should complete the current laws, regulations and policies.Enhancing general practitioners'training and medical professional training that aims at the examination of practicing doctors'qualifications.Establishing a reasonable compensation, old-age se-curity and other social security mechanism for rural general practicing assistant doctors.

Objective To investigate risk factors for the development of advanced schistosomiasis. Methods The case\|control study was designed with a match of 1∶1 and 1∶2. Healthy persons and chronic schistosomiasis patients were used as control. Each group was composed of 213 cases. Items investigated included: history of schistosomiasis and treatment, exposure to the contaminated water, social\|economical condition and nutritional status, other concomitant diseases. Cellular and humoral immunity, HBVMs and ABO blood groups were also detected. Statistical analysis was performed by 1∶1 and 1∶2 matched single and stepwise conditional logistic regression analysis with SAS software. Results By stepwise conditional logistic regression analysis, it was revealed that number of schistosomiasis examination(OR=1\^168-1\^311), interval from first infection to last treatment(OR=1\^142), interval from first infection to this investigation (OR=1\^089), \{HBsAg\++\}(OR=4\^683-10\^759), \{HBcAb\++\} (OR=2\^873), \{HBsAg\++\}+\{HBeAb\++\}+\{HBcAb\++\}(OR=7\^64) were risk factors of developing advanced schistosomiasis. The average living space and cellular immunity were lower in advanced schistosomiasis patients than others. No association was found between advanced schistosomiasis and ABO blood groups. Conclusion The development of advanced schistosomiasis is associated with repeated infections, and delayed or incomplete treatment. Combined infection with hepatitis B, poor socio\|economic conditions and impaired cellular immunity may increase the pathogenetic risk of schistosomiasis.

Objective:
To apply and evaluate the effect of empowerment educational program on AIDS prevention and treatment among freshmen in one university.
Methods:
The method of two stage stratified sampling was used to select the experimental and control group. The traditional health education was implemented among the control group, and the empowerment education was implemented for the experimental group. The effect of the two groups was compared before and after intervention.
Results:
For experimental group, the awareness rate of AIDS(65.02%) ( χ 2=61.02, P <0.01) and the overall score of attitude and behavior(16.71± 2.53 )( t =-2.66, P <0.05) were significantly improved after intervention(82.96%,18.58±1.95). For the control group, there was significant difference in awareness rate of AIDS after intervention(67.70% vs 96.02%, χ 2=18.64, P <0.05), while there was no statistical difference in overall score of attitude and behavior after intervention(16.52±1.50 vs 17.16±1.57, t =-1.51, P =0.14). There was no significant difference in awareness rate between the two groups before intervention ( χ 2=0.36, P =0.55), but there was a statistical difference after intervention ( χ 2=20.42, P <0.01). There was statistical difference in attitude and behavior scores between the two groups after intervention ( P <0.05).
Conclusion
Empowerment educational program can improve the awareness rate of AIDS among college students, help to establish an objective attitude towards AIDS and infected patients, and to reduce high risk sexual behavior, also it is more effective compared to traditional education method.
4.An investigation on health risk behaviors among high school students in Jiangxi province
Chinese Journal of School Health 2019;40(1):51-54
Objective:
To determine health risk behaviors related to accidental injury of adolescent in Jiangxi province,and to provide a peference for taking targeted measures to prevent the occurence of adolescent’s risk behaviors.
Methods:
By using the cluster stratified sampling, students of grade one and grade two from 10 classes in 5 middle schools in Nanchang city and from 1 middle school in Wuyuan county were selected. Health risk behaviors were investigated through questionnaire survey and were compared within the two areas.
Results:
Regarding to safety, the rates of never or rarely wearing a helmet when riding a bicycle during the past 12 months, never or rarely wearing a seat belt, text or Email while driving a vehicle and in a physical fight were very high. In Wuyuan county, 35.2% of the students have ever tried cigarette smoking, 51.5% of the students have had at least one drink of alcohol, 4.0% of the students have ever had sexual intercourse, 32.7% of the students describe their weight as slightly or very overweight, 49.1% of the students trying to lose weight. After standardized, the rate of health risk behaviors in Nanchang city was higher than that in Wuyuan county.
Conclusion
here are more healthrisk behaviors found among middle school students in Nanchang than in Wuyuan county.The targeted measures should be taken to develop healthy behavior habits of the students to effectively reduce its occurence.
5.Daily behavior and self-perceived academic performance among students in Jiangxi Province
Chinese Journal of School Health 2019;40(9):1315-1317
Objective:
To analyze the relationship between daily behavior and self-perceived academic performance among students in Jiangxi, and to provide a scientific basis for developing health behavior among adolescents and children.
Methods:
By using stratified cluster sampling, 12 primary and secondary schools from six counties of Jiangxi Province were selected, and a total of 2 284 students were investigated with questions including breakfast consumption, number of days participating in sports activities (≥45 min) and the average screen time during the past 7 days. Regression analysis was carried out by using ordered multi-classification logistic.
