ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo verify and promote the HIV antibody urine test in a demonstration zone for HIV prevention and control in Xinjiang, and to assess the sensitivity and specificity of the test and the willingness of the volunteers, providing a basis for evaluating and determining whether it was suitable for large-scale use in the region. MethodsStratified cluster sampling was used to select the respondents in a place in Xinjiang for questionnaire survey and sample collecting. Questionnaire results were statistically described, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of willingness to use HIV-1 urine test. The results of blood ELISA antibody detection method were used as a reference to calculate the specificity, sensitivity and Kappa value of urinary HIV-1 antibody in the total population and different populations. ResultsA total of 2 504 volunteers were recruited for the urine self-testing. The sensitivity of HIV-1 antibody urine test in the total population was 94.73% (54/57), the specificity was 100% (2 447), the positive predictive value was 100% (54/54), and the negative predictive value was 99.88% (2 447/2 450). The specificity of each population group was 100% when comparing different populations. The test sensitivity was 100% in pregnant women, prostitutes and drug users, 50% (1/2) in MSM subjects, with a Kappa value of 0.796. The test sensitivity was 80% (8/10) in the volunteers, with a Kappa value of 0.878. In the satisfaction survey, 73.1% population was more likely to receive urinary rapid test than the blood fast test, 93.8% of the population was willing to recommend the rapid urinary detection to other people. More than 70% of the population was satisfied with the rapid urinary detection. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, degree of education, occupation, marital status, payment method of medical expenses, and income level were the influence factors of the purchase of urine fast reagent for the self-testing (P<0.05). ConclusionUrinary HIV-1 antibody detection method has good reliability and public satisfaction. It is suitable for large-scale use in Xinjiang.

ABSTRACT

Objective: Gender differences in the usage of supplements by working adults and their awareness of them. <br>Methods: Full-time employees of Company A in the Tokai region of Japan and their spouses were given cross-sectional questionnaires (response rate: 61.3%), and 658 responses from full-time employees and their spouses were analyzed. <br>Results: Supplements were used by 23.7% of the participants. They were used by significantly more women than men, and women also had a greater tendency to seek advice regarding supplement use (advice sought by: women, 44.9%; men, 24.1%; p=0.01). Advice was only rarely sought from professionals. The greatest number of respondents stated that they were unsure whether they were satisfied with their supplement use. <br>Conclusions: Few participants sought out professional advice when taking supplements and many participants appeared to continue using supplements without noticing any improvement. This suggests both the need for further training of professionals to give more appropriate advice regarding necessary supplement use as well as the need to encourage education aimed at creating eating behavior that does not rely simply on supplements.

ABSTRACT

Objectives Appraise the quality of retired workers' life of a medical college according to their income, livelihood, neighborhood relations, health condition and other related factors. Methods Fill in the Quality of Life Investigation Questionnaire when the retired workers are taking routine physical examination. Results 776 pieces of questionnaire were collected, making up 64.7% of the retired workers, which may represent the people of this kind. Out of the 776 retired workers, 597 are suffering from chronic diseases, making up 76.9%. Among them, 37.5% have one type of chronic disease, while 39.5% have two types and more. Among them, heart cerebrovascular diseases and hypertension sufferers occupy 80.6%, 63.3% of the overall prevalence rate. 42.2% are satisfied with their health condition, 9.6% are not, 48.2% with fair contentment. Those with positive view towards income take up only 41.4%, while negative 6.6%. As to the way of living, 375 are living either with a spouse or by oneself, making up 50.6% ,while 46.2% living by a core family with children and grandchildren or with a big family. 64.0% are able to take care of themselves. Among the 236 in need, 88.0% are taken care of by relatives, only 12% by social aids. About 82.5% enjoy a harmonious family life;only 0.5% are not. 83.0% keep a good neighborhood relationship, only 0.6% of them doesnt. Conclusion The overwhelming majority of the retired workers of senior teachers and scientific and technical personnel are living in a harmonious family or community. When they are in need, relatives are the main forces to help, social forces does not work much on it. Two items that below 50% of the satisfaction are income and health condition. So, we are looking forward to the improvement of these two aspects by the reform on social and medical insurance.

ABSTRACT

School lunch programs at middle schools have increased in quantity. However, the quality of them is in fact not enough to reach the satisfactory standard, especially in the aspect of environment of school meals. It is true that there seems to be little attention to the environment. In this study, degree of satisfaction about school lunch program was surveyed for students in one middle school. Focus of survey was sanitary condition about the dining room and classroom where they have lunch. First, in order to investigate the degree of satisfaction about their dining place, questionnaire was sent out to the students at one middle school in Seoul. Questionnaire was made with reference to previous research. Second, for the study on environmental sanitation, dropping bacteria (general bacteria) is measured in three parts of dining place (entrance, serving table, dining table). Petriplate film was exposed to the responsible places for 15 minutes and then cultivated at the temperature of 32degrees C for 48 hours before counting the number of bacteria formed. For the statistical analysis, SPSS 12.0 was used. The results of the study show that students had more satisfaction in dining room service than in classroom service. Important factors for the meal program such as "taste of food", "amount of food per student", "state of keeping warm", "appearance of food", "diversity of menu", and "kindliness of feeding staff" had more points in dining room than in classroom. For the environmental and sanitary aspect, the result of dropping bacteria (general bacteria) in dining room and classroom showed that table (5.00) and fooddistribution corner (8.67) of dining room were cleaner than those of classroom (P < 0.05). Making a good environment for school feeding will have a positive effect on the improvement of satisfaction and sanitation of school feeding. There should be expansion of dining room service for the students.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To determine the priority for the instrumental development of Total knee replacement arthroplasty(TKA) by assessment of patient interviews after TKA in Korea. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We assessed the responses of 168 patients with primary TKA a minimum of one year after surgery. In order not to limit their choices by using a survey, interviewees responded to two open-ended questions, "What was the best result achieved after TKA?" and "What was the result you most wished for but was not achieved after TKA?" RESULTS: All the patients expressed satisfaction with TKA except for 12 patients (7.1%) and for the question of the best result after TKA, 118 patients (70.2%) pointed out that pain relief was the most satisfactory. For the question of the most wished for function still to be restored after TKA, 59 patients (35.1%) answered "No inconvenience and no need" and the greatest proportion among the others who had a wish, 61 patients (36.3%) pointed to discomfort related to the degree of knee flexion with the response "Not easy to stand from the ground and to have deep knee flexion". The average knee flexion degree was 120.7degrees in the group who had a wish related to knee flexion but 127.5degrees in the "No need" group, and the difference was significant (P=0.004). CONCLUSION: Although there was a 93% satisfaction rate after TKA, the remaining function most wished for after TKA was to stand up from the ground easily, which is related to knee flexion degree. Therefore, we propose that the improvement of knee flexion after TKA should be the priority for instrumental development in Korea.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: In Korea, the separation of prescribing and dispensing medicine was finally accepted as a medical policy in July, 2000, after a long period of discussion and study which was started in 1963. Now a year after the policy started, we investigated the knowledge, attitude, and practice of separation of prescribing and dispensing medicine. METHODS: Information, concerning whether the policy was effectively carried out and well understood, were gathered from 383 patients, who visited an university hospital from August 20 to September 1, 2001. RESULTS: The results revealed that 73.1% of the subjects knew the policy precisely. However, only 1.6% of them could answer all four questions on the purpose of the policy. The old-aged, the low educated, the low socioeconomic groups and the residents in agricultural area revealed poor understanding of the policy (P<0.05). Among the total, 74.9% showed negative response toward the policy. Time and cost increment were 75.7% and 75.2%, respectively. Among them 61.1% revealed negative attitude towards continuance the policy and 93.2% revealed dissatisfaction of the policy. CONCLUSION: The knowledge of the policy was relatively high. However, negative attitudes prevailed on the continuance of the policy. Therefore, more solutions and better strategies for the problems of prescribing and dispensing medicine would be needed.

ABSTRACT

We investigated factors related to the perception of achievement and to the degree of satisfaction of junior residents in initial clinical training. Questionnaires were given to second-year postgraduate students at 13 teaching hospitals in Japan. The response rate was 50%(n=89). The perception of achievement and the degree of satisfaction were converted to a 100-point scale. The mean±standard deviation of the two scores were 70±11 and 68±16, respectively. The average number of inpatients and whether the junior resident had taken care of patients were related to both scores. However, gender, the number of departments rotated through, and salary were not associated with either score.
