ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the status of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) health literacy and associated factors in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.Methods:Based on the multi-stage stratified sampling method, the questionnaire survey of health literacy of COVID-19 were carried out in 55 599 local residents from12 prefecture-level cities of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region between March 10 and 15, 2020. The questionnaire in details included not only knowledge, attitude and behavior, but also mental health, their scores were calculated using Decimal method. A ≥80% of the correct answer rate of the survey content was regarded as qualified for health literacy. There were 51 722 (93.0%) valid questionnaires, according to the ratio of medical staff to non-medical staff, 32 529 questionnaires were selected for analysis. The health literacy level was defined according to the proportion of qualified people.The credibility and availability of the questionnaires were evaluated by Cronbach′s α coefficient and KMO test. The associated factors were analyzed by Pearson χ 2 test and logistic regression. Results:In Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the whole level of health literacy of COVID-19 was 85.7%, and their scores were (26.30±2.48). Knowledge, attitude, and behavioral literacy levels were 61.6%, 95.6%, and 96.8%, respectively. Compared with the population of 15-25 years old, the health literacy level of 46-65 years old was the highest ( OR=2.00, 95% CI: 1.78-2.24). The health literacy level of medical staff group ( OR=2.54, 95% CI: 1.30-4.95) was far higher than the non-medical staff group; the population with college or above education level ( OR=10.22, 95% CI: 9.19-11.36) was significantly higher than the population with education level below college. The degree of anxiety was negatively correlated with education level. Conclusions:The health literacy level of COVID-19 in residents in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is relatively high, but the level of knowledge literacy needs to be improved. The main factors affecting the health literacy of COVID-19 among Inner Mongolia residents are age, occupation and education level.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the significance of the application of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR)combined with prostate specific antigen (PSA)in early diagnosis of prostate carcinoma.Methods 120 cases with surgery treatment of prostate carcinoma were selected as study group,and 120 healthy people were selected as control groups.The NLR and PSA were tested to diagnose the prostate carcinoma.The critical value of NLR in diagnosing prostate carcinoma was evaluated by ROC curves,and the advantages of combination of NLR and PSA were judged. Results By using ROC curves to evaluate the NLR in diagnosis,the critical value was 2.75.The susceptibility, specificity,Youden index,correct index were 0.79,0.85,0.65,0.72.The susceptibility,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,correct index of NLR combined with PSA in diagnosing the prostate carcinoma were 0.85,0.83,5.00,0.18,0.68.Conclusion The application of NLR has higher susceptibility and specificity to diagnose prostate carcinoma.NLR combined with PSA can improve the susceptibility and specificity of early diagnosis of prostate carcinoma.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical applicated value of simple transumbilical single-tunnel laparoscopic renal cyst decortication.Methods 7 patients with renal cysts were treated with simple single-tunnel laparoscopic renal cyst decortication.Results The operations of 7 patients were succeed.The mean operative time was 37 (28 ～ 90) min,and the mean time of pulling the drain tube out was 2 (1 ～ 4) d,and the mean int aoperative blood loss was 30 (25 ～ 80) ml,and the mean bed stay was 1.5 (1 ～ 3) d,and the mean hospital stay was 4 (3 ～ 8) d.In 7 patients,no recurrence of the cyst occurred during a follow-up of 1 ～ 6 months by color-ultrasonography,CT after operation.Conclusion The simple transumbilical single-tunnel laparoscopic renal cyst decortication has advantages of economic,minimal trauma,hairdressing,rapid recovery and better effect,therefore it maybe an ideal treatment choice for renal cysts.
