The association between health literacy and out-of-pocket health expenditure
BACKGROUND: Health literacy has been increasingly emphasized as a critical factor shaping healthcare behaviors and costs. However, empirical evidence on its association with out-of-pocket (OOP) health expenditure remains complex, and little is known about how this relationship varies by chronic disease status. This study aimed to identify distinct health literacy profiles within a large Chinese population, examine their associations with OOP expe…

Health literacy and chronic disease prevalence
Background: Health literacy (HL), a key factor in chronic disease prevention, enables individuals to better understand, manage, and respond to health risks. While HL's influence on health outcomes is established, limited research has explored how its association with chronic disease prevalence varies across age groups, particularly between middle-aged adults and young-older adults. Methods: We used data from the 2023 China Health Literacy Survey …
The association between health literacy and e-cigarette use
Objectives The worldwide popularity of electronic cigarettes (ECIG) is becoming a public health concern. Compared to conventional cigarettes (CIG), the harm caused by ECIG is more insidious. Studies have shown that lower health literacy (HL) is associated with CIG use; however, the relationship between HL and ECIG use remains controversial. Because ECIG emerged more recently than CIG, there are fewer relevant studies, and the sample populations a…
