To analyze the epidemic characteristics and to explore the spatial-temporal clusters of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in Changsha from 2013 to 2016.
 Methods: Descriptive analysis and space-time permutation scan statistic were used to analyze the reported PTB cases in Changsha from 2013 to 2016.
 Results: Between 2013 and 2016, a total of 17 721 PTB cases were reported in Changsha, with annual reported incidence rate at 60.87 per 100 000 population. Males and individuals aged 15 to <60 years accounted for higher proportion of PTB cases compared to females and other age groups. The number of reported PTB cases reached peak from March to May in each year. The space-time permutation scan statistic identified one most likely cluster and two secondary clusters of PTB cases. The most likely cluster covered most areas of Liuyang City and the North-east part of Changsha County from October 1, 2013 to February 28, 2014. The first cluster occupied 12 towns (streets) in Kaifu District and Changsha County in December 2016. The second cluster included four towns (streets) in Yuhua District and Tianxin District from March 1 to September 30, in 2013.
 Conclusion: Between 2013 and 2016, significant space-time clusters of PTB cases were identified in Changsha. These findings could provide a guide for development of regional intervention strategies for PTB control.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a more reliable and accurate scale of perinatal maternal health literacy during perinatal period by selecting items form existing scale. METHODS: Two rounds of inquiry were performed by 14 experts on mother and children to evaluate the necessary and importance of 56 items by Delphi method, in which 50 items were retained. Th en we proceeded a cross-sectional survey in 350 woman who just gave birth 1-3 days before. 10% of them were selected to retest aft er 1 week. Based on these data, we used 6 different methods to select items and kept those that could pass by at least 3 different methods. The methods used in data analysis were Chi-square test, correlation coefficient method (2 kinds), factor analysis, Cronbach α coefficient method and the retest reliability method. RESULTS: The Person correlation coefficient was 0.507 (P=0.004). By using the 6 statistical methods, we deleted 9 items through Chi-square test, 25 items through correlation coefficient method 1, 1 item through correlation coefficient method 2, 19 items through Cronbach α coefficient method, 8 items through factor analysis and 37 items through retest reliability method. In the end, 33 items were retained for the novel scale of maternal health literacy during perinatal period. CONCLUSION Simplified novel scale is acquired, which need to do large efforts before extensive use, such as large sample survey, reliability and validity test.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the knowledge of, attitude to and practice in nutrition and food safety, the influence factors, and to provide reference for relevant health education programs. METHODS: A total of 510 randomly selected students from Grade 1 to 3 randomly selected were surveyed by a nutrition and food safety questionnaire in Huize of Yunnan Province and Zhen'an of Shaanxi Province. Multiple-linear regression was used to analyze the influence factors of nutrition and food safety. RESULTS: The correct answer rate on nutrition and food safety knowledge of the pupils from Grade 1 to 3 was 74.4%. Nutrition and food safety knowledge score was 11.16±2.51, but only 7.8% of the students correctly answered "How much water should we drink every day". Students who agreed that it is necessary to learn nutrition and food safety knowledge in school accounted for 78.6% and 73.9%, respectively. At least half of the students showed correct behaviors in 7 aspects. The students who ate beans and meat daily or regularly accounted for 28.4% and 34.9%, but only 9.2% of the students drank more than 7 cups of water daily. The multiple-linear regression showed that the major influence factors were the area, grade, status of lodge and singleton. CONCLUSION Education is needed for students to form better dietary habits, especially those in low grades, non-singleton, and in board schools.
