Objective:To explore the mediating effect of social support and exercise self-efficacy on the intrinsic capacity of community-dwelling older adults and healthy aging, so to provide a basis for improving the healthy aging of community-dwelling older adults.Methods:From January to July 2022, cluster random sampling was used to select 1 303 community-dwelling older adults from Urumqi City as the research subject. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Healthy Aging Instrument, Intrinsic Capacity Questionnaire, Social Support Rating Scale, and Exercise Self Efficacy Scale for Aged People in Community. The conceptual model was used to explore the relationship among social support, exercise self-efficacy, intrinsic capacity, and healthy aging in community-dwelling older adults. A total of 1 303 questionnaires were distributed, and 1 042 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 80%.Results:Among 1 042 community-dwelling older adults, the scores of the Intrinsic Capacity Questionnaire, Healthy Aging Instrument, Social Support Rating Scale, and Exercise Self Efficacy Scale for Aged People in Community were [1.00 (0, 2.00) ] , [146.00 (133.75, 155.00) ] , [41.00 (36.00, 46.00) ] and [51.00 (39.00, 61.00) ] , respectively. The intrinsic capacity of community-dwelling older adults was negatively correlated with social support, exercise self-efficacy, and healthy aging ( r=-0.112, -0.121, -0.120, P<0.01) , and social support and exercise self-efficacy were positively correlated with healthy aging (r=0.129, 0.113, P<0.01) . Bootstrap mediating effect test showed that the mediating effect of social support and exercise self-efficacy between the intrinsic capacity of community-dwelling older adults and healthy aging was established, with a mediating effect value of -0.477, accounting for 24.75% of the total effect. The path effect value of intrinsic capacity→ social support→ healthy aging was -0.262, accounting for 54.93% of the mediating effect value. The path effect value of intrinsic capacity → exercise self-efficacy→ healthy aging was -0.214, accounting for 44.86% of the mediating effect value. Conclusions:In the community elderly population, social support and exercise self-efficacy can play a mediating role between intrinsic capacity and healthy aging. Community health care providers should pay attention to the internal capacity of the older adults, improve social support and exercise self-efficacy, and thus promote the realization of healthy aging of the older adults.

Objective To understand the prevalence of osteoporosis and its influence factors in residents of Chongqing, and to provide the reference for osteoporosis prevention and treatment. Methods The data were from ^“An epidemiological survey of osteoporosis in Chongqing in 2018^”, and the multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 1885 subjects (≥20 years old) from 32 villages/neighborhood committee in 4 areas (countries) of Chongqing. The investigation was performed by questionnaire (sociodemographic factors, lifestyle factors, history of orthopedics) and the bone mineral density was measured by QDR 4 500A dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. The chi-square test and multi factor multi-variant logistic regression analysis were utilized to analyze the data, the used software was SPSS 25.0. Results The morbidities of osteoporosis and osteopenia in residents (>20 years old) of Chongqing in China were 12.99% and 48.70%, respectively. The osteoporosis morbidity (19.08%) in females was significantly higher than that (4.42%) in males, and increased with age. The multi-variant logistic regression indicated that women (OR=6.10, 95% CI:4.08-9.14), the past medical history of fracture (OR=1.79, 95%CI:1.18-2.73) and age (OR=16.80, 95% CI:9.19-30.77) were risk factors for osteoporosis; milk intake (OR=0.65, 95%CI:0.47-0.89), overweight (OR=0.51, 95%CI:0.36-0.93)and obesity (OR=0.30, 95%CI:0.19-0.47), as compared with ≤primary school group, junior high school group (OR=0.57, 95%CI:0.39-0.82);≥high school group (0.40, 95%CI:0.26-0.61) were considered to be protective factors for osteoporosis. Conclusion The prevalence of osteoporosis among residents with age above 50 years old of Chongqing was very high. Health education and behavior intervention should be focused on the elderly or female residents to promote the formulation of healthy lifestyle.

INTRODUCTION: Oropharyngeal swabs for diagnosis of COVID-19 often induce violent coughing, which can disperse infectious droplets onto providers. Incorrectly doffing personal protective equipment (PPE) increases the risk of transmission. A cheap, single-use variation of the face shield invented by a Singaporean team, SG Shield, aims to reduce this risk. This manikin study aimed to study the efficacy of the SG Shield in combination with standard PPE. METHODS: A person attired in full PPE whose face and chest was lined with grid paper stood in front of an airway manikin in an enclosed room. A small latex balloon containing ultraviolet fluorescent dye was placed in the oral cavity of the manikin and inflated until explosion to simulate a cough. Three study groups were tested: (a) control (no shield), (b) face shield and (c) SG Shield. The primary outcome was droplet dispersion, determined quantitatively by calculating the proportion of grid paper wall squares stained with fluorescent dye. The secondary outcome was the severity of provider contamination. RESULTS: The SG Shield significantly reduced droplet dispersion to 0% compared to the controls (99.0%, P = 0.001). The face shield also significantly reduced droplet contamination but to a lesser extent (80.0%) compared to the control group (P = 0.001). Although the qualitative severity of droplet contamination was significantly lower in both groups compared to the controls, the face shield group had more contamination of the provider's head and neck. CONCLUSION The manikin study showed that the SG Shield significantly reduces droplet dispersion to the swab provider's face and chest.

Background: Trigeminal neuralgia is a debilitating craniofacial pain syndrome that is characterized by paroxysms of intense, short-lived electric shock-like pains in the trigeminal nerve distribution. Recently, the presence of triggers has become one of the key diagnostic criteria in the 3rd edition of the International Classification of Headache Disorders. Light touch is the most common trigger, however other nonmechanical triggers, such as cold weather and certain foods, have been thought to provoke trigeminal neuralgia anecdotally. We aimed to characterize the prevalence and characteristics of these atypical triggers. Methods: We conducted a retrospective, cross-sectional study of atypical triggers in trigeminal neuralgia patients seen in a tertiary pain clinic in Singapore. Patients were recruited via clinic records, and study data were identified from physician documentation. Results: A total of 60 patients met the inclusion criteria. Weather triggers were observed in 12 patients (20%), of which five patients (8%) reported strong winds, 4 patients (7%) reported cold temperatures, and 3 patients (5%) reported cold winds as triggers. Fifteen patients (25%) had a specific food trigger, of which 10 patients (17%) reported hard or tough food, 5 patients (8%) reported hot/cold food, 4 patients (7%) reported spicy food, and 2 patients (3%) reported sweet food as triggers. Conclusions Although trigeminal neuralgia is most commonly triggered by mechanical stimuli, atypical triggers such as cold temperatures and certain foods are seen in a significant proportion of patients. These atypical triggers may share a common pathway of sensory afferent Aδ fiber activation.
