Objective To analyze the death cause of residents in Zigong from 1985 to 2009, so as to provide the government with scientific information of health strategies, and disease prevention and control. Methods The death surveillance data in Zigong residents from 1985 to 2009 were collected, and the indexes such as all death mortality rate, infant mortality rate, maternal mortality rate, disease-specific mortality rate, age-specific mortality rate, and life expectancy were analyzed. Results The all death mortality rate had fluctuation of plus or minus 6‰, and the male mortality rate was higher than the female (χ2=8 059.769, P=0.000). The six main influencing factors of the death of Zigong residents were as follows: respiratory system diseases, circulatory system diseases, tumour, injury and poisoning regarded as external cause diseases, digestive system diseases, and infectious diseases and parasitic diseases. The mortality rates of different districts were statistically different (χ2=1 643.926, P=0.000), and Fushun County was the highest among them after standardization. The curve of mortality rate in different sex and age groups was changed alike letter “U”. The mortality rate was ascending with the age in the group of over 15 years old, the ascending trend was more evident especially after 50 years old. The infant mortality declined steadily and was well controlled. The maternal mortality declined obviously. The average life expectancy for the whole city was 74.72, which showed an ascending trend. Conclusion The chronic diseases are the main death cause of residents in Zigong. The prevention and controlling of acute infectious diseases and parasitic diseases should be persistently performed for declining both incidence rate and mortality rate. The Zigong city is gradually stepping into aging society, which requires the great development of senior work.
Objective To know the training status and expectation of village doctors in remote and poor areas of Sichuan province and to provide the preferences for developing a viable and efficient training model. Methods The cluster sampling method, combined with questionnaire surveys and qualitative interviews, was used. A total of 463 village doctors of 302 village clinics in Pengzhou and Baoxing of Sichuan province were interviewed. Results The “three-side” phenomenon including the doctor being old, poor academic background and lack of female doctor in remote and poor areas of Sichuan was serious. In-service village doctors’ knowledge on public health and Chinese medicine increased through training. There were differences between the training village doctors participated and that they had expected. The cost of the training was somewhat high for rural doctors. The training system has not been established yet in remote areas. Conclusions Both quantity and quality should be considered in in-service village doctor training in remote areas of Sichuan Province, which should also consider local conditions and farmers’ needs . The in-service training system should be developed as soon as possible. It is suggested that the treatment of village doctors should be improved. Cultivating more young village doctors should be based on the stability of the medical team.

The present study used the experimental patterns of Go/No Go and no motion contingent negative variation (CNV) task into the research in order to study whether the CNV can express the implication of expectation. Through comparing the CNV under different conditions, the data collected from experiment showed that the key to evoked CNV was close to the warning signal and command signal. Whether the command signal was related to the task would impact on the amplitude of the CNV. This characteristics responses to the subjects' expectation. On this basis, CNV can be used as the electrophysiological index for the reflection of expected value in the conditions of this experiment.
Trial sequential analysis (TSA) can identify inclusive results of apparently conclusive of meta-analyses by providing require information size and monitoring boundary. Certain methods of calculating information size are existed. Our objective was to give a brief introduction of four methods to help readers to better perform TSA in making meta-analyses.
Objective To investigate the death rate and life lost of the Xinjian district residents in Nanchang city, and to provide scientific evidence for the health administrators to formulate relevant policies and improve the life expectancy of the residents. Methods Based on the population and the death data in this area from 2011 to 2015, the mortality, the cause of death spectrum, the life expectancy, the life expectancy for death causes, the potential years of life lost (PYLL), the potential years of life lost rate (PYLLR), the average potential years of life lost (APYLL), the standardized potential years of life lost (SPYLL), the standardized potential years of life lost rate (SPYLLR) were analyzed by SPSS 20.0 software. Results From 2011 to 2015, the crude death rate of Xinjian district was 538.38/10 million, the standardized mortality rate was 563.00/10 million, the crude death rate of males is higher than that of females (χ2=788.91, P<0.01); the causes of death in the top five were follows: circulatory system diseases, tumor, respiratory system diseases, injury, endocrine, nutrition and metabolic diseases. The causes of death were in the same order whether in male or female. Mortality rates of different age groups showed that the mortality rates began to rise substantially after the age of 30, the main causes of death were different between the low age group and the high age group. The life expectancy of residents was 78.38 years, the PYLL for all causes of death was 129 087.5 years, the PYLLR was 39.84‰, the APYLL was 17.44 years, the SPYLL was 134 057.00 years, the SPYLLR was 38.61‰. The PYLL caused by injury was 46 191.5 years, the PYLLR was 14.26‰, APYLL was 33.14 years, of which were all ranked first. The SPYLL caused by tumor was 48 414.95 years, the SPYLLR was 13.94‰, of which were ranked first. Conclusion The mortality rate of Xinjian district residents is higher than that of Nanchang urban residents, but lower than the average level of Jiangxi province and the whole country. Life reduction analysis shows that chronic non-communicable diseases and injuries are the main causes of death for residents in the area. The three levels prevention is of great significance to reduce the death of residents and improve their life expectancy.

Objective To estimate healthy life expectancy of residents aged 30 and above in Jianyang, Sichuan province, and comprehensively evaluate the health status of the population, so as to provide reference and basis for the formulation of health-related public policies. Methods The population data, death data and health status data of Jianyang city in 2018 were collected, and the self-rated health life expectancy and life expectancy without chronic diseases of residents aged 30 and above were calculated by Sullivan method, and their proportion in life expectancy was calculated. Results A total of 4 482 residents aged 30 years and above were included in Jinyang city, of whom 3 989 were self-rated healthy, accounting for 89.00% of self-rated health, and 1 988 were suffering from chronic diseases, with a chronic disease prevalence rate of 44.36%. In the age group of 30-64, the self-rated health life expectancy of women was significantly higher than that of men (P<0.05), and in the age group of 40-44, the life expectancy without chronic diseases of women was significantly lower than that of men (P<0.05), and the differences were not statistically significant when comparing different genders in other age groups (P>0.05). With the increase of age, the proportion of residents’ self-rated health and the proportion of life expectancy without chronic diseases in healthy life expectancy gradually declined. Conclusions The chronic disease has become the main factor affecting the health of middle-aged and elderly population, especially female population. It is suggested that active measures should be taken to deal with chronic diseases and the elderly health support system should be strengthened to improve healthy life expectancy of residents in Jianyang city.
