Psychosocial symptom networks and high-risk sexual behaviors among men who have sex with men
Psychosocial problems are prevalent among men who have sex with men (MSM) and are linked to high-risk sexual behaviors. Previous studies have often examined these factors separately, without considering their interconnections. Network analysis offers a way to explore these relationships, but has seldom been applied to MSM in the context of both mental health and sexual risk. This study aimed to: (1) model psychosocial symptom networks among MSM; …

Adiposity was measured at baseline and follow-up. Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimated hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). A total of 764 new diabetes cases w…
Associations of Dietary Patterns and Risk of Hypertension in Southwest China
Empirical data on the association between diet and incident hypertension in Southwest China is lacking. We examined the associations between various dietary patterns and the risk of incident hypertension in this prospective population cohort of Southwest China. A total of 5442 eligible adults were included from Guizhou Province, China, since 2010. Dietary information was obtained using face-to-face interviews with a semi-quantitative food frequen…
Effects of Body Mass Index, Waist Circumference, Waist-to-Height Ratio and Their Changes on Risks of Dyslipidemia among Chinese Adults
This study aimed to assess the effects of different anthropometric indices and their changes on the risk of incident dyslipidemia among the Chinese population. From the Guizhou population health cohort study, 2989 Chinese adults without dyslipidemia at baseline were followed up. Anthropometric parameters including waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), and their changes in the latter two indices, and serum …
Is the Efficiency Score an Indicator for Incident Hypertension in the Community Population of Western China
We aimed to explore the association between the efficiency score and the risk of hypertension. We conducted a prospective cohort study of 2412 adults aged 40 years or above without hypertension in Guizhou, China from 2010 to 2020. The data envelopment analysis input-oriented DEA-CCR model was used to calculate the efficiency scores. The Cox regression model was used to assess the relationship between the efficiency score and incident hypertension…
Quality of life during the epidemic of Covid-19 and its associated factors among enterprise workers in East China
The quality of life for returning enterprise workers in areas with different risks of COVID-19 was affected by different factors. Associated factors identified from this study would help develop proper intervention measures for enterprise workers to reduce the impact of large-scale public health events like the COVID-19 on their quality of life
Prevalences of metabolic syndrome and its sex-specific association with socioeconomic status in rural China
The prevalence of MS and its components was relatively high in a rural island Chinese population with rapid urbanization, and sex-specific associations between socioeconomic factors and MS were found.

Migration and Illicit Drug Use Among Two Types of Male Migrants in Shanghai, China
Large-scale internal migrations within China have led to speculation of increased drug use, but with little empirical evidence. This cross-sectional study examines the association between migration characteristics and illicit drug use in 100 general male migrants and 239 "money boys" (i.e., male migrants engaging in same-sex transactional sex) in Shanghai, China. Only three general male migrants reported any drug use. Among money boys, lifetime i…

Substance use and HIV risks among male heterosexual and ‘money boy’ migrants in Shanghai, China
There is a growing awareness that internal migration in China might shift the HIV epidemic by broadening the social and sexual mixing of its population. However, little is known about how drug use/abuse might contribute to the spread of HIV. This qualitative study aims to elucidate factors for preventing substance abuse and HIV among two types of male migrants living in the Shanghai metropolitan area; the general migrant population and so-called …
HIV risks among gay- and non-gay-identified migrant money boys in Shanghai, China
Men having sex with men (MSM) now account for 7% of all HIV/AIDS cases in China and there is growing awareness that internal rural-to-urban migration might shift the HIV epidemic within China by broadening social and sexual mixing. About 70% of HIV/AIDS infections are among rural residents, of whom 80% are males and 60% aged 16-29. This young, male, rural-to-urban migrant population has been identified as the 'tipping point' for the AIDS epidemic…
