This study explored the association of the HIV knowledge with the attitudes toward HIV/AIDS.Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted in HIV epidemic rural areas with 5355 participants. Their knowledge and attitudes about HIV/AIDS were assessed, and the associations of HIV transmission and non-transmission knowledge with negative attitudes towards the HIV/AIDS were analyzed.Results Negative attitudes were significantly correlated with the HIV non-transmission knowledge and the correlation was higher than that with HIV transmission knowledge among participants who were male, 20 years old and migrant workers, students and respondents of and above junior high school. However, among those who were female, age 30 and older, illiterate with primary school education, negative attitudes were significantly associated with HIV non-transmission knowledge and the association was lower than that with HIV transmission knowledge.Conclusions HIV transmission knowledge and non-transmission knowledge have different influences on negative attitudes towards HIV/AIDS among different demographic subgroups.展开更多

文摘目的了解芜湖市某中学1 295名学生的高血压流行现状,探讨其高血压发病与心理健康和生活方式的关系,为学校、家庭和社会开展相应的干预措施提供科学的理论依据。方法采用分层整群抽样的方法 ,抽取芜湖市某中学初一、初二、初三部分班级的学生为研究对象,对其进行匿名式问卷调查和体格检测。结果 1 295名中学生中,检出高血压106人,检出率8.2%。该校学生高血压发病情况与其身体质量指数(body mass index,BMI)及一般健康问卷(general health questionnaire-28,GHQ-28)评价有关,而在性别和各生活方式不同组别间差异无统计学意义(均有P>0.05)。多因素非条件Logistic回归分析显示,BMI高(OR=1.97,P<0.001)、GHQ-28评价呈阳性(OR=1.600,P=0.024)是该校学生高血压患病的主要危险因素。结论该校中学生高血压发病情况不容乐观,建议学校、家庭和社会给予高度重视,加强高血压健康教育,积极采取有效措施改善中学生身心健康状况,养成良好生活习惯,控制BMI,预防高血压的发生。
