This study investigates decade-long (2012-2022) depression trends among Chinese rural adolescents, focusing on pandemic-related changes and variations by gender and age. Data for this analysis were drawn from the longitudinal surveys of the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) (N = 9,695; age 10-15). Kruskal-Wallis tests were applied to determine change patterns in rural adolescents' depression over time. Multiple regression models were computed to assess gender and age differences in pre-pandemic and pandemic-era depression changes. The findings reveal that (a) No statistically significant changes in depression were observed before the COVID-19 pandemic from 2012 to 2018; (b) a statistically significant increase in depression occurred from 2018 to 2020; (c) subsequently, a significant decline was noted from 2020 to 2022; and (d) no statistically significant differences were found between two gender and different age groups regarding their change in depression before and during the COVID-19. The study reveals pandemic-specific fluctuations in rural adolescent depression that affected all subgroups uniformly, highlighting the universal impact of COVID-19 disruptions in rural contexts.","PeriodicalId":55570,"journal":{"name":"Asia-Pacific Journal of Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"590-593"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144979807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the experiences of these providers in counseling are not sufficiently explored. This qualitative study, embedded within an Smoking Cessation Organizing, Planning & Execution (SCOPE) training effectiveness evaluation, delves into the barriers and facilitators encountered in addressing tobacco use at health clinics. We conducted Focus Group Discussions with 38 health care providers, including doctors, pharmacists, nurses, and medical assistants, across six locations. The transcripts were inductively coded to develop themes. Identified challenges encompassed time constraints, lack of cessation skills, patient default rates, and resource inadequacy. On the contrary, strong rapport, patient readiness to quit, service promotion, and dedicated clinics emerged as facilitators. The study emphasizes that health care providers face barriers at multiple levels-provider, patient, and organizational. Capitalizing on the identified facilitators could improve smoking cessation intervention efforts. The improvement of quit-smoking clinics necessitates strategic inputs from a diverse range of stakeholders.","PeriodicalId":55570,"journal":{"name":"Asia-Pacific Journal of Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"566-577"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144884341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While studies have examined risk perception as a dual process, its application to real-world risk situations is unexplored. This study investigated the relationships between risk perception, social contact changes, and social isolation during COVID-19. A nationwide cross-sectional sample of 804 adults completed computer-assisted telephone interviews. The main variables were social isolation (face-to-face and non-face-to-face) and risk perception (affective and cognitive). Data were analyzed using analysis of variance, logistic regression models, and multinomial logistic regression models. Affective and cognitive risk perceptions were associated with changes in face-to-face and non-face-to-face social contact. Only affective risk perception was associated with social isolation. Thus, social isolation is a health-related concept, higher levels are associated with poorer mental and physical health. In addition, the isolation-reduction recommendations put forth have important well-being-improvement implications.","PeriodicalId":55570,"journal":{"name":"Asia-Pacific Journal of Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"544-551"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144979832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data for 217 157 stroke survivors and 312 138 matched controls were analyzed. The relative risk of DM was assessed using multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models. Compared with the controls, stroke survivors had a 2.7-fold higher risk of newly diagnosed DM in the first year and a 15% increased risk thereafter. Severe disability was associated with an elevated DM risk in the first year, but the risk was not significant when a one-year lag period was applied. Ischemic stroke survivors showed significantly higher DM risk than controls, but no significant difference was observed for hemorrhagic stroke survivors. These findings suggest that the type and severity of stroke play crucial roles in the development of DM. Close monitoring and early screening for DM in stroke survivors, particularly those with severe disability or ischemic stroke, could help improve long-term outcomes.","PeriodicalId":55570,"journal":{"name":"Asia-Pacific Journal of Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"558-565"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144979760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
