Objective. To investigate the suicidal ideation among unmarried female miworkers in Shanghai and Guangzhou and explore the association between suicidal ideation and some psychosocial problems, reproductive health factors. Methods. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 3 553 unmarried female miworkers in two factories in Shanghai and two in Guangzhouconvenient sampling. Logistic regression was used to analyze the related factors of suicide ideation including psychosocial problems and reproductive health factors. Results. Overall, 287(8.1%) of the respondents had suicidal ideation during the past year. Univariate Logistic regression showed that alcohol, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, loneliness, poor social support (emotional support and economic support), favorable attitude toward premarital pregnancy, favorable attitude toward multiple induced abortion, experience of unplanned pregnancy and experience of induced abortion were related to suicidal ideation after demographic factors being corrected. Multivariate Logistic regression showed that alcohol (OR1.42, 95% CI 1.04-1.93), low self-esteem (OR1.47, 95% CI 1.03-2.11), loneliness (OR3.30, 95% CI 2.42-4.51), poor emotional support (OR2.68, 95% CI 2.00-3.61) and poor economic support (OR3.79, 95% CI 2.86-5.04) were the critical factors. Conclusion. The factors such as risk behavior, mental health, lack of social support were associated with increased odds for suicidal ideation among the unmarried female miworkers. The prevention and intervention mechanism should be constructed, and the social support should be enhanced to effectively prevent the occurrence of suicidal ideation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective To evaluate the implementation status of community management of osteoporosis among community health care workers in Shanghai, to explore the related influencing factors by using social ecological theory, and to explore the interaction between influencing factors using path analysis. Methods Using convenient sampling method, 42 health care workers were selected from each of the 20 community health service centers in Shanghai to conduct a questionnaire survey. 840 health care workers were enrolled to evaluate the status of osteoporosis community management implementation and related influencing factors. Logistic regression and path analysis were adopted to analyze the relevant influencing factors. Results Multivariate logistic regression result showed that osteoporosis risk factor identification skills(ORm=1.66, 95%CI=1.14-2.42), self-efficacy(ORm=8.39, 95%CI=5.90-11.92) and community hospitals environmental support(ORm=1.65, 95%CI=1.19-2.29) could promote the implementation of community management of osteoporosis among community health care workers. Path analysis result showed that self-efficacy could directly promote the implementation of osteoporosis community management among community health care workers(factor loading=0.60, P<0.001), while community hospitals environmental support(factor loading=0.11, P<0.001) and risk factor identification skills(factor loading=0.08, P<0.001) could directly promote the implementation of community management of osteoporosis among community health care workers as well through the mediating effect of self-efficacy. Conclusion According to the path analysis, the implementation of community management of osteoporosis in community health care workers is influenced by the interaction of individual, interpersonal and community factors. It suggests that we should combine the individual and the surrounding environment to carry out targeted intervention. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective · To investigate condom among unmarried female miworkers in Shanghai and explore its relation with some psychosocial problems. Methods · A questionnaire survey was conductedcluster random sampling. A total of 903 unmarried female miworkers who had sexual experience were enrolled to evaluate their condom and psychosocial factors. Logistic regression was used to analyze the related factors of condom use. Results · Among the unmarried female miworkers, the percentage of consistent condom was only 13.8%. Univariate Logistic regression showed that low self-esteem (OR0.47, 95% CI0.25-0.90) and depression (OR0.59, 95% CI0.38-0.93) were related to inconsistent condom after correcting demographic factors. Multivariate Logistic regression showed that depression (OR0.58, 95% CI0.37-0.90) was the main factor related to inconsistent condom use. The participants with at least two psychosocial problems were more difficult to condoms consistently (OR0.56, 95% CI0.32-0.97). Conclusion · The unmarried female miworkers with depression or co-occurring psychological problems in Shanghai are more likely to have unsafe sex behavior, which indicates the importance of psychological interventions.

Objective To explore the reliability and validity of the osteoporosis self ‐ efficacy scale among residents in shanghai communities． Methods A total of 2003 community residents were tested with osteoporosis self ‐ efficacy scale． Among them， 20 cases were stratified randomly and retested 1 month later． The validity of the scale was evaluated by structural validity，content validity，and criterion validity． The reliability of the scale was tested by Cronbach's alpha coefficient，retest reliability，and splithalf reliability． Results The exploratory factor analysis showed that the variance contribution rate of the two factors，exercise selfefficacy and calcium self-efficacy，was 81. 9%． Results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the model was consistent with the theoretical assumption，and the fitness indexes were χ2 /df = 3. 835，CFI = 0. 977，GFI = 0. 941． Each item had a significant correlation with the sub-dimension． Osteoporosis self-efficacy was shown to have association with preventive behavior． Cronbach＇s alpha coefficient of the scale was 0. 958． The test-retest correlation coefficient was 0. 931． The split-half reliability coefficient was 0. 980． Conclusion Osteoporosis self-efficacy scale has good reliability and validity among community residents in Shanghai． [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
