To improve this situation, we surveyed the utilization of internet services to collect job information among medical students and produced six videos and conducted public relations activities for the recruitment of public health physicians based on the survey results.Methods The subjects of the survey were medical students in their third year or above from 18 universities. Public health teachers in these 18 universities sent their students anonymous self-administered questionnaires created with Google Forms mainly by e-mail. The questionnaires included the following items \"internet services used to collect job information,\" \"desired length of each video for knowing job information,\" and \"information you want to know about your future work.\" The responses were reflected in the length and the content of the videos and the settings for their distribution.Results Responses were obtained from a total of 491 medical students, including 14 third-year students, 177 fifth-year students, and 300 sixth-year students. Homepages were the most frequently used online source for collecting job information (94.7%), followed by blogs (42.0%), Twitter (32.6%), and YouTube (18.9%). Medical students are less likely to use social networking services for collecting job information compared with non-medical job-hunting students. Regarding the length of the videos, 55.8% of the respondents preferred the length of one video to be less than 5 minutes, and 95.1% preferred it to be less than 10 minutes. Almost all of the respondents (93.1%) wanted to know the atmosphere of young public health physicians, and 74.1% also wanted to know the atmosphere of veteran physicians. Based on these results, we selected six public health physicians including young and veteran physicians and produced interview videos that conveyed the atmosphere of each doctor within 5 minutes per person. We refurbished the banner on the top page of the Japanese Association of Public Health Center Directors so that the videos uploaded to YouTube could be watched.Conclusion We clarified the current situation of the utilization of internet services for job-hunting activities among medical students and were able to initiate video public relations activities for the recruitment of public health physicians in accordance with the needs. It is necessary to increase awareness of the video platform among medical students and clinicians by deepening cooperation with local governments, universities, and medical institutions and expanding the human network both online and in person.</p>","PeriodicalId":72032,"journal":{"name":"[Nihon koshu eisei zasshi] Japanese journal of public health","volume":" ","pages":"24-32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41173767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, the ability to use health information and skills related to interactivity taken from the Internet have become important in the medical and health fields. However, there is no scale to evaluate these abilities. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the validity and reliability of the Digital Health Literacy Instrument (DHLI) and examine the association of digital health literacy (DHL) with the characteristics of the study participants.Methods The Japanese version of the DHLI was developed using the basic guidelines for scale translation. The participants included 2,000 Japanese adults (men: 50.0%, mean age: 40.7±12.0 years) who responded to an Internet-based cross-sectional survey. The Japanese version of the DHLI, attributes, sources of health information, contents of health information taken from the Internet, and eHealth Literacy Scale (eHEALS) scores were obtained using a questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis and correlation with eHEALS scores were used to assess construct and criterion validities. Cronbach's alpha and correlation coefficients were computed for internal consistency and test-retest reliability. Differences in DHLI scores for each attribute and variables related to health information were examined using the analysis of variance and t-test.Results Confirmatory factor analysis revealed a goodness-of-fit index of .946, a comparative fit index of .969, and a root mean square error of approximation of .054, confirming that the Japanese version has the same seven-factor structure as the original version does. A significant positive correlation was found between DHLI and eHEALS scores (r=.40, P<.001). Cronbach's alpha was .92, and test-retest reliability was r=.88 (P<.001). DHLI scores were mainly associated with household income, health status, frequency of information searches on the Internet, and devices used. The subscale scores found difficulties in evaluating reliability, determining relevance, and adding self-generated content. Differences in DHL were observed among some sources and contents of health information on the Internet.Conclusion The Japanese version of the DHLI was a sufficiently reliable and valid instrument for assessing DHL among Japanese adults. Our results suggest that low DHL may lead to health information disparities. Therefore, it is necessary to consider support strategies for individuals who need to improve their DHL and for skills that need to be strengthened.</p>","PeriodicalId":72032,"journal":{"name":"[Nihon koshu eisei zasshi] Japanese journal of public health","volume":" ","pages":"3-14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10170768","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The survey focused on 1013 mothers who had received health check-ups for children aged 18 months between November 2017 and October 2019. The data included in the analysis were data from the children's three-month health check-ups and survey data from 908 mothers who responded to the questionnaire and consented to the use of their health check-up data. After excluding data from potential participants who were not mothers or had multiple births, data from 847 participants were analyzed (valid response rate: 93.3%). The objective variables were mothers' mood and thoughts about life with their children at the time of the three-month check-up as the mothers' psychological profiles. The explanatory variable was the presence or absence of maternal economic insecurity, and logistic regression analysis was conducted, adjusted for the children's sex and birth order, presence or absence of maternal counselors, and the mothers' educational attainment.Results A total of 60 (7.1%) mothers were economically insecure. Of the mothers' moods, 122 (14.4%) reported feeling anxious, followed by 36 (4.3%) who reported feeling lonely. Of their thoughts on life with their children, 776 (91.6%) mothers reported that they enjoyed it, and 567 (66.9%) reported that they were happy to be parents. On the other hand, 157 (18.5%) reported feeling frustrated, and 75 (8.9%) reported that the lack of time for themselves was painful. Economically insecure mothers had an odds ratio of 5.59 (95% confidence interval, 2.49-12.55) for feeling lonely, 4.77 (2.67-8.54) for feeling anxious, and 2.70 (1.50-4.86) for feeling frustrated, all significantly higher than in mothers not facing economic insecurity.Conclusion Economic insecurity among mothers at the time of the three-month check-up was associated with the psychological states of loneliness, anxiety, and frustration about living with their children. It was suggested that to solve economically insecure mothers' problems, they need support, including connecting them with social welfare services, so that they will be able to raise their children in a more stable environment.</p>","PeriodicalId":72032,"journal":{"name":"[Nihon koshu eisei zasshi] Japanese journal of public health","volume":" ","pages":"33-40"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41153741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to analyze the effect of using non-face-to-face training guidance for walking and strength training on the frequency and degree of urinary incontinence and improvement in the urinary incontinence-induced decline in the quality of life (QoL) of community-dwelling middle-aged and older women.Methods This study included 68 women, aged 46-64 years, having self-evaluated stress urinary incontinence. The participants in the intervention group watched a video that guided them on how to walk effectively and gradually increase their number of steps. Additionally, a non-face-to-face lecture was conducted on the comprehensive training content, including muscle strengthening exercises necessary for walking at home, as muscle weakness is one of the causes of urinary incontinence. The control group was instructed to continue living as usual without any interventions. The intervention period was 12 weeks. The primary endpoints included the urinary leakage frequency score, urinary leakage volume score, and degree of decline in the QoL, and these were compared before and after the intervention using the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF). To elucidate the effect of the increase in the step count on the primary outcome, we calculated the rate of increase in the step count before and after the intervention in the intervention group. Moreover, a sub-analysis was performed for the high-step count (n=16) and low step-count (n=16) groups before and after the intervention.Results Significant differences were observed in the urinary leakage frequency, urinary leakage volume, and ICIQ-SF scores at 12 weeks post-intervention between the groups (P<0.05). In the high-step count group, both the urinary leakage frequency and ICIQ-SF scores showed a significant tendency to improve from 8 weeks compared to the pre-intervention scores.Conclusion Since this study was conducted as an open-label trial, the possibility of an inherent bias in subjective outcome assessment should be considered during interpretation of the results. Our findings indicate that walking and muscle strength training, even with non-face-to-face guidance, for middle-aged and older community-dwelling women with urinary incontinence can effectively improve the urinary leakage symptoms and degree of decline in the QoL. Furthermore, greater effects could be expected by encouraging an increase in the number of daily steps with the intervention.</p>","PeriodicalId":72032,"journal":{"name":"[Nihon koshu eisei zasshi] Japanese journal of public health","volume":" ","pages":"15-23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41221517","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Self-reported height and weight values are often used to assess the body mass index (BMI) in such epidemiological surveillance. However, it is known that using self-reported height and weight may underestimate the prevalence of obesity (BMI≥25 kg/m<sup>2</sup>), while its accuracy for underweight (BMI<18.5 kg/m<sup>2</sup>) prevalence is not well-understood. The aim of this study was to conduct a scoping review on the accuracy of self-reported anthropometrics in the Japanese population, where both obesity and underweight are prevalent.Methods Using PubMed and CiNii Research, a literature search was conducted for studies published in English or Japanese by 2022 that were conducted in Japan and compared self-reported and measured height, weight, or/and BMI. The study design and mean reported errors (mean of reported values-mean of measured values) were extracted and tabulated, and differences by BMI categories were also considered.Results A total of 17 studies, with 11 being published in English, were included in this review. These studies were conducted in nationwide cohort studies (n=4), local populations (n=4), workplaces (n=3), and educational institutions (n=6), with diverse age ranges (10-91 years) and sample sizes (<100 to >30,000). Although the degree of mean reporting error varied between studies, most of the studies reported that height was overreported, weight was underreported, and BMI was underestimated. In the three studies that reported mean reporting errors by BMI category, the direction of reporting error for height remained consistent across all body size categories, while weight and BMI were overreported and overestimated only among the underweight. Four studies in adults showed that 14.2-37.6% of actually obese individuals and 11.1-32.3% of underweight individuals were misclassified as 'normal range' (18.5≤BMI<25 kg/m<sup>2</sup>) based on self-reporting, while 0.8-5.4% and 1.2-4.1% of individuals actually within the normal range were misclassified as 'underweight' and 'obese' based on self-report, respectively.Conclusion This study suggests that using BMI based on self-reported height and weight can underestimate the prevalence of both obesity and underweight in the Japanese population.

Most cases were transmitted in the family, asymptomatic, and severe cases were rare. In the sixth wave in Japan the number of infected children increased sharply after the Omicron variant had been replaced in December 2021, which had a substantial influence in maintaining social and medical functions. Furthermore, few reports on child death in the country have raised concerns among parents. However, no literature has elucidated the epidemiological characteristics of the Omicron variant in children. In this study, we aimed to clarify them during the sixth wave in Japan.Methods We analyzed the data of 28,086 COVID-19-infected patients those were registered in the Yamashirokita Public Health Center between January 15, 2022 and May 31, 2022. The cumulative incidence and hospitalization rate were compared between the age groups <15 and those >15 years based on the databases compiled by our public health center and the Kyoto prefecture government. In addition, we analyzed the background, length of hospitalization, and clinical symptoms of 24 patients based on active epidemiological investigation, health observations, and discharge reports submitted from medical facilities.Results Of the 52,897 residents <15 years (pediatric population is 12.3%), 15.1% (7,980 cases) were infected, and children accounted for 28.4% of all-age infected patients. Among them, 24 were hospitalized (0.3% of children with COVID-19, 0.04% of the child population). Conversely, of the 377,093 residents aged ≥15 years, 5.3% (20,106 patients) were infected. Among them, 1,088 were hospitalized (5.4% of COVID-19 patients, 0.28% of the adult population). For 24 hospitalized children, 22 (91.6%) had mild cases and 2 (8.3%) had moderate cases, and no severe case was noted based on the criteria of severity in Japan's COVID-19 medical care guidelines. Two patients (8.3%) were hospitalized for treatment of other diseases. The median of hospital stay was 3.5 days, and 20 patients (83.3%) were discharged home during the recuperation period.Conclusions The cumulative incidence of children with COVID-19 in the sixth wave was 15.1%, approximately three times higher than that of the older patients; however, no severe case was observed in children.</p>","PeriodicalId":72032,"journal":{"name":"[Nihon koshu eisei zasshi] Japanese journal of public health","volume":" ","pages":"749-758"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9742986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
