ABSTRACT
In order to understand the current status of the knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) about prevention and control of COVID -19 in college students, and to provide theoretical basis for prevention and control work in college campus. This study investigated the KAP of COVID -19 of 1 847 college students in Shaanxi province by questionnaire using the convenience sampling method. Chisquare test and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors for the KAP of COVID -19. The results demonstrated that 48.3% of the students had a higher knowledge level of COVID -19, 11.7% had a fear attitude and 39.6% had good protective practices. Logistic regression results showed that female and urban household college students had higher cognitive level of COVID -19. The college students with anxiety state were more likely to have fear attitude. Students of female, urban household, anxiety, higher cognition and fear attitude showed better protective practices. The above results indicated that the knowledge level of COVID -19 in college students are not enough, and the attitude and protective practices need to be further improved. Therefore, relevant departments should follow the rules of KAP, carry out targeted propaganda and education on COVID -19 for college students, to improve their ability to cope with public health emergencies.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the clinical characteristics,diagnosis and clinical outcomes of neonatal purulent meningitis in southwest and northwest regions of China.Method There were 5 tertiary hospitals in southwest and northwest regions of China with well capacity of treating neonatal diseases collaborated as the neonatal meningitis network.From January 2010 to December 2014,clinical symptoms,signs and outcomes of cases with the diagnosis of neonatal meningitis were retrospectively studied.Result During the study period,a total of 63 514 neonates were admitted to 5 neonatal departments in Chongqing and Shanxi Province,China,and 407 cases were diagnosed of bacterial meningitis.255 (62.7％) cases were males.The mean gestational age was (37.1 ±3.2) weeks.125 (30.7％) were preterm infants and69 late-preterm infants.The mean birth weight was (2 859 ± 771) g,90 (22.1％) cases were low birth weight infant.The incidence of neonatal purulent meningitis were 0.64％ (From 2010 to 2014,0.30％,0.72％,0.64％,0.89％ and 1.12％ respectively),and 77.6％ of the cases were the late-onset infection.The mortality rate were 9.1％ (From 2010 to 2014,6.3％,4.0％,9.8％,8.4％ and 8.5％ respectively).The incidence of neurological sequelae was 5.9％ (From 2010 to 2014,12.5％,8.0％,6.1％,6.3％ and 11.6％ respectively).The mean duration of hospital stay was 21 days.Mean duration of antibiotic treatment was 19 days.The remission rate was 85.0％ (346/407).Conclusion From 2010 to 2014,on average,the incidence of neonatal purulent meningitis was 0.64％,mortality rate was 9.1％,neurological sequelae was 5.9％,and remission rate was 85.0％.Among these years the mortality and neurological sequelae of neonatal purulent meningitis were not decreasing.
