RESUMO
Background At present, the evaluation of water quality in public swimming places mostly adopts the single index evaluation method, ignoring the possible correlation between the indicators, the problem of information overlap between the indicators, and the differences between the swimming places with single or multiple unqualified water quality indicators. Objective To evaluate water quality in public swimming places in Chongqing objectively, intuitively, and comprehensively. Methods In 2020, a stratified random sampling method was used to investigate seven water quality indicators of 112 public swimming places in the central urban area, the new downtown urban area, the northeastern area, and the southeastern area of Chongqing. The selected indicators were free residual chlorine, turbidity, pH, free residual chlorine in disinfection pool of feet, urea, total plate count, and coliform bacteria. Principal component analysis was utilized to comprehensively evaluate water quality of swimming places by calculating principal component characteristic values and comprehensive evaluation values. Results The qualification rates of free residual chlorine, turbidity, pH, free residual chlorine in disinfection pool of feet, urea, total plate count, and coliform bacteria were 91.30%, 89.40%, 91.30%, 91.30%, 99.00%, 95.20%, and 86.50%, respectively, and the P50 values were 0.455 mg·L−1, 0.59 NTU, 7.352, 6.63 mg·L−1, 0.78 mg·L−1, 8 CFU·mL−1, and 0 CFU·100mL−1, respectively. The results of principal component analysis showed that KMO=0.573, P<0.001; four principal components were extracted, the eigenvalues of each principal component were 2.990, 1.624, 0.854, and 0.617, respectively, and the cumulative contribution rate was 86.928%. The comprehensive values of Banan District, Beibei District, Bishan District, Fengdu County, Fengjie County, Jiangbei District, Nan'an District, Nanchuan District, Pengshui County, Qianjiang District, Rongchang District, Shizhu County, Tongnan District, Wanzhou District, Yongchuan District, Yuzhong District, Changshou District, and Zhongxian County were −0.139, 0.228, 0.587, 0.042, −3.365, 0.587, 0.597, 0.587, 0.587, 0.189, −1.127, −0.201, −0.181, 0.587, 0.416, 0.587, 0.587, −0.098, and 0.043, respectively. The comprehensive evaluation values (P50) of the central urban area, the new downtown urban area, the southeastern area, and the northeastern area of Chongqing were 0.587, 0.587, −0.181, and 0.043, respectively. Conclusion The hygienic status of water in public swimming places in Chongqing is above average in China, but there are still potential health problems in turbidity and bacterial pollution in the southeastern area and Fengjie County of Chongqing.
RESUMO
Objective To understand the status quo of the body mass index (BMI) among rural left‐behind elderly people in Chongqing ,and to analyze the impact of diet on BM I value to provide the dietary suggestions for improving the nutrional status of rural left behind elderly people .Methods The self‐designed questionnaire was used to conduct the on-site investigation on the ru‐ral left‐behind elderly people .The SPSS19 .0 statistical software was used for analysis .Results The average BMI value of surveyed people was (22 .14 ± 3 .22)kg/m2 ,the BMI value had statistically significant difference between different genders (χ2 =8 .170 ,P=0 .043) ,the normal proportion of BMI values in males was higher than that in females ;the BMI value had statistical difference a‐mong different ages(χ2 =18 .568 ,P=0 .029) ,the proportion of malnutrition was increased with the age increase .In the eating be‐haviors ,the food flavor was negatively correlated with the BMI value ,the choice of cooking oil was positively correlated with the BMI value(P<0 .05);the consumption frequency of fruits ,beans and bean products ,fish and shrimp was negatively correlated with the BMI value ,the consumption frequency of livestock meat and eggs was positively correlated with the BMI value(P<0 .05) .Con‐clusion In order to promote the nutritional status and health condition of rural left‐behind elderly people ,the cognition of their own physical constitution should be enhanced ,and the rational dietary habit and food consumption habit should be cultivated .
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To understand the current situation and problems of the human resources of herbalists in Chongqing, and to provide reference for the relevant departments in formulating development plan for herbalists and promoting the healthy and sustainable development of Chinese medicine industry. METHODS:Chongqing municipal health and family planning commission is-sued the questionnaires to investigate the post distribution,educational background,job title and advanced study of medicine staff in Chongqing medical institutions. RESULTS:Questionnaires were gathered and reported by county health bureaus with effective re-covery rate of 100%. There were totally 19 713 Chinese medicine practitioners in Chongqing,including 1 739 herbalists,account-ing for 8.8%. Only 1.7%of the herbalists were graduate degrees,and the proportion of highly educated herbalists was low. The pri-mary professional position of the herbalists accounted only 59.5% and senior professional position was only 4.7%,the professional titles of herbalists were generally on the low side. The proportion of further education for herbalists was only 3.2%. There were sig-nificant differences in the ages,working time,highest education,professional positions and post properties and further studies among different economic areas(P<0.05). Herbalists of one-hour economic circle had higher educational level and higher profes-sional position than other two areas. CONCLUSIONS:Chongqing is lack of herbalists,and lack of the senior professional posi-tions,their education level is low and further education rate is low. In order to promote the development of Chinese medicine,it is necessary to strengthen the training and introduction of outstanding and young talents,strengthen the continuing education and regu-lar standardized training,improve the salary and welfare treatment for authorized strength and positions and balance the training for herbalists in different economic areas.
