Objective:To survey the status quo of the provision of palliative care services by community health service centers in Shanghai and to investigate the related influencing factors.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey. The status quo of the provision of palliative care services in all community health service centers (249 in total) in 16 districts of Shanghai were surveyed in December 2022. The Evaluation Form for the Quality Management of Hospice Care Work in Shanghai Community Health Service Center was used for survey, which included basic information, talent team, related department, medical services, research and training, and health education, etc. The data were collected up to November 30, 2022. The 16 districts were divided into three areas: central city (80 centers), suburb (92 centers) and exurb (77 centers). The scores of different districts were compared and the influencing factors were analyzed.Results:The average self-evaluation score of community hospice care service in 16 districts was 69.42 points. Changning District in the central city had the highest self-evaluation score (87.32 points) and Fengxian District in the exurb had the lowest self-evaluation score (44.59 points). The total scores of hospice service in central urban area and suburban area [(73.99±16.96) and (75.61±10.69) points] were higher than those in the exurbs [(56.81±20.82) points], and the scores in central urban area and suburban area were also higher than those in the exurbs ( P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that the community location, the registration status of hospice department, inpatient ward facilities, and availability of hospice information platform were independent influencing factors of community self-rating scores ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Hospice care services have been fully covered in Shanghai community health service centers, and the current situation of community hospice care services in the central city and the suburbs is better than that in the exurbs.

Objective:
To analyze the heterogeneity of mobile phone dependence development trajectory in middle school students and its association with loneliness and selfcontrol ability, so as to provide reference for the prevention of mobile phone dependence in middle school students.
Methods:
A total of 941 grade 1 students from 4 public middle schools in Xiangxi Autonomous Prefecture, Hunan Province were selected for the followup survey by random cluster sampling from October 2023 to April 2024 and October 2024. Mobile Phone Addiction Index (MPAI), University of California, Los Angeles Loneliness Scale-20 (UCLA-20) and Selfcontrol Scales (SCS) were used for questionnaire survey. The heterogeneity of the developmental trajectory of middle school students mobile phone dependence was analyzed by the latent growth curve model (LGMM), and the influencing factors of the developmental trajectory of middle school students mobile phone dependence were explored by multiple Logistic regression analysis.
Results:
The development trajectory of middle school students mobile phone dependence could be divided into four categories: C1 "low risk slow decline group (n=438,44.6%)", C2 "medium risk slow rise group (n=272,29.7%)", C3 "high risk rapid decline group (n=73,8.6%)" and C4 "high risk rapid rise group (n=158,17.1%)". There were significant differences in the distribution of mobile phone dependence development track heterogeneity subgroups among sex, only child, lodging, and leftbehind students (χ2=117.79, 44.88, 37.09, 130.50, P <0.01). The results of the multinomial Logistic regression model analysis showed that, with C1 group as the reference, C2, C3, and C4 were positively correlated with students loneliness [OR(95%CI)=1.04 (1.02-1.06), 1.11(1.08-1.14), 1.12(1.09-1.14)]; C2 and C4 groups were negatively correlated with students selfcontrol [OR(95%CI)=0.97(0.96-0.99), 0.95(0.93-0.97)] (P<0.01).
Conclusions
The development trajectory of mobile phone dependence among middle school students is heterogeneous. Reducing the loneliness of individuals and cultivating good selfcontrol ability are helpful to alleviate mobile phone dependence behavior among middle school students.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2024;45(11):1604-1608
Objective:
To analyze the developmental trajectories of middle school students loneliness and social support, as well as to explore the interaction between loneliness and social support, so as to provide the evidence based support for the mental health development of adolescents.
Methods:
A total of 989 first year students from four public middle schools in Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Hunan Province were selected for three follow up surveys by a cluster random sampling method (T1:March 2023, T2:June 2023, T3:December 2023). The UCLA Loneliness Scale-20 (ULS-20) and Social Support Scale for University Students (SSSUS) were employed for questionnaire data collection. The growth mixture modeling was utilized to test the developmental trajectories of loneliness and social support among middle school students, while the cross lagged analysis was performed to investigate their mutual influence.
Results:
The scores for loneliness and social support in T1, T2 and T3 were (43.1±5.8, 42.5± 6.8 , 42.0±6.9; 55.9±12.0, 60.7±15.7, 60.4±16.7), respectively. Correlational analysis revealed a significant negative correlation between loneliness levels (T1, T2, T3) and social support (T1, T2, T3) ( r =-0.47 to -0.36, P <0.01). Growth mixture modeling indicated a linear declining trend of middle school students loneliness, and the developmental trajectory of social support showed a linear increasing trend, with significant individual differences in initial levels and rates of change ( P <0.05). Cross lagged analyses revealed that loneliness levels at T1 negatively predicted social support scores at T2 ( β =-0.16), and loneliness levels at T2 negatively predicted social support scores at T3 ( β =-0.12) ( P <0.05). Additionally, prior loneliness positively predicted its subsequent levels, with path coefficients of 0.58 and 0.47, respectively ( P <0.05). Social support scores at T1 negatively predicted loneliness levels at T2 ( β =-0.10), while scores at T2 negatively predicted loneliness levels at T3 ( β =-0.15) ( P <0.05). Prior loneliness also positively predicted its subsequent levels, with path coefficients of 0.43 and 0.44, respectively ( P <0.05).
Conclusion
The developmental trajectory of middle school students loneliness demonstrates a decreasing trend, while that of social support exhibits a linear increasing trend, indicating a longitudinal causal relationship between loneliness and social support.

ObjectiveTo investigate the satisfaction of both service providers and users in community health service centers through questionnaires, and to analyze the reasons, so as to put forward suggestions for improving satisfaction. MethodsSampling was conducted in 247 community health service centers in 16 districts of Shanghai, and data were collected from employees and patients through on-site questionnaires. ResultsA total of 10 334 eligible questionnaires were collected from community health service centers, of which 7 712 were from patients and 2 622 were from employees. In 2021, the public's satisfaction with community health service centers was 96.51 points, and the satisfaction of employees was 94.08 points. The public expressed lower satisfaction with the availability of essential drugs for outpatient services, while the staff were less satisfied with their salary and benefits, work recognition, and career development. Regarding family doctor services, 73.38% of the public had signed up for family doctor services, while 23.57% of the public did not know about the family doctor services, and 16.18% believed it was necessary to improve the publicity of basic public health services. ConclusionThe public's overall satisfaction with the service of community health services is gradually increased. The basic medical services of community health are recognized by residents. Drug allocation needs to be improved urgently, and publicity and promotion need to be further strengthened. The overall satisfaction of employees is high, but further improvement is needed in terms of salary and benefits, work recognition, and career development.

Objective To evaluate the clinical experience of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) treatment on two cases of infection with the critical Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) complicated by fulminant myocarditis (FM) . Methods This study selects two COVID-19 cases comorbid with fulminant myocarditis and had been treated with ECMO in Shenzhen Third People's Hospital from January 2020 to February 2020. We compare the index of inflammation, immunization, D-dimer and lactic acid before and after ECMO treatment in 24 and 96 hours, cardiopulmonary function before and after ECMO treatment in 24, 48, 72, 96 hours,. We also analyze the complications and clinical outcomes of the two cases during the ECMO treatment. Results Both patients were elderly obese men with chronic cardiopulmonary disease. Comparing the laboratory test results and imaging data of the two patients, the acute lung injury score, oxygenation index, albumin level, hypersensitive C-reactive protein, lactate and lactate dehydrogenase levels in 2 patients after ECMO treatment were improved as compared with those before ECMO treatment. Finally, case 1 died of multiple organ failure and his cardiac function continued to deteriorate, while, case 2 successfully withdrew and his cardiac function gradually improved. Conclusions For critical COVID-19 patients with fulminant myocarditis, ECMO treatment can improve pulmonary function in the short term, provide valuable time for rescuing COVID-19 patients with fulminant myocarditis.
