Extensive antibiotic use during early life and risk of frailty
Our findings indicate that extensive antibiotic use during early life is associated with elevated risk of frailty in middle and older adulthood. They highlight the importance of prudent antibiotic use in early life and the need for additional studies to explore the underlying causal pathways
The association between solid fuel use for heating and cooking and low back pain and neck pain in middle-aged to elderly Chinese adults
Long-term exposure to household solid fuels is associated with a higher risk of LBP and NP. It is suggested that multiple departments cooperate to increase the global use of clean energy and thereby reduce the risk of LBP and NP among middle-aged and elderly people
Associations of child-to-adult body size change with risk of hypertension and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease
Childhood leanness exacerbates the risk of hypertension and MASLD in adulthood. Within the follow-up period, normal adult body size would mitigate the detrimental effects of childhood obesity. Thus, attention should be given to reinforcing weight management in children by implementing evidence-based strategies
Predictors of health state utility values using SF-6D for Chinese adult patients with β-thalassemia major
Background Patients with β-thalassemia major (β-TM), predominantly adult patients, are associated with physical, mental, and social problems, that result in decreased quality of life (QoL). However, there is a paucity of data on QoL and health status utility (HSU) among adult patients with β-TM in mainland China. Our study aimed to evaluate the QoL by short form 36 questionnaire (SF-36) of adult patients with β-TM in mainland China and to estimat…
Marital transitions and frailty among middle-aged and older adults in China
Being unmarried may increase frailty among Chinese middle-aged and older adults. Financial support by children may mitigate the adverse effects of being unmarried on frailty
The Relationship between the Unmet Needs of Chinese Family Caregivers and the Quality of Life of Childhood Cancer Patients Undergoing Inpatient Treatment
A large proportion of the global burden of childhood cancer arises in China. These patients have a poor quality of life (QoL) and their family caregivers have high unmet needs. This paper examined the association between the unmet needs of family caregivers and the care recipient’s QoL. A total of 286 childhood cancer caregivers were included in this cross-sectional study. Unmet needs and depression among caregivers were assessed by the Comprehen…
Trends in Cognitive Function Among Chinese Elderly From 1998 to 2018
Objectives: To investigate the effects of age, period, and cohort (APC) on trends in cognitive function among the Chinese elderly, and to explore how gender gaps in cognitive function change with age, period, and cohort. Methods: This study used data from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS) from 1998 to 2018, and included 90,432 participants aged above 65 years old. The measurement of cognitive function was the score of the …
Clinical and Economic Impact of Third-Generation Cephalosporin-Resistant Infection or Colonization Caused by Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae
Quantifying economic and clinical outcomes for interventions could help to reduce third-generation cephalosporin resistance and Escherichia coli or Klebsiella pneumoniae . We aimed to compare the differences in clinical and economic burden between third-generation cephalosporin-resistant E. coli (3GCREC) and third-generation cephalosporin-susceptible E. coli (3GCSEC) cases, and between third-generation cephalosporin-resistant K. pneumoniae (3GCRK…
Osteoarthritis in the Middle-Aged and Elderly in China
Background : Osteoarthritis is a common joint disease, with the acceleration of the aging process in China, it has troubled the middle-aged and elderly. There have been some epidemiological studies of osteoarthritis conducted in one single site, and most of them were on knee osteoarthritis. The results varied greatly between different surveys. There was still a lack of large-scale and multicenter epidemiological studies of osteoarthritis. This pa…
Social Determinants of Health-Related Quality of Life among Residents in Zhejiang and Qinghai, China
Social determinants are closely related to health and play a significant role in shaping the quality of life of a population. This study aimed to explore the differences in HRQoL (health-related quality of life) scores of residents in the eastern province of Zhejiang and the western province of Qinghai and probe factors affecting the HRQoL among the two populations. A sample of 4210 residents from a cross-sectional survey was included in the anal…
The Quality of Caregivers for the Elderly in Long-Term Care Institutions in Zhejiang Province, China

A cross-sectional survey was conducted from April to June 2016 in Zhejiang Province. In total, 84 caregivers were interviewed face-to-face with ques…
Outpatient health-seeking behavior of residents in Zhejiang and Qinghai Province, China
The outpatient health-seeking behavior and its influencing factors among residents in Zhejiang and Qinghai province were different. The findings suggest the importance of having discrepant health policies in the two provinces. It's necessary to improve health literacy of residents in both provinces, strengthen the accessibility of health services in remote areas of Zhejiang and pay more attention to people with low socioeconomic status in Qinghai
Measurement and analysis of equity in health
Absolute medical prices and medical insurance may explain the equity in the utilization of outpatient services and the inequity in the utilization of hospitalization. In view of the pro-rich inequity of hospitalization, more financial protection should be provided for the poor
