“…Because of the different study populations, the induced abortion incidence was different [10,11,12,13] as well. Only one report in China Daily in 2011 mentioned that 70% of the total of 50,000 induced abortions corresponded to immigrant women in a 2008 Beijing survey [14].…”

This study attempted to explore how informed choice on contraceptive methods influenced induced abortions among reproductive-age immigrant women in China. A total of 3230 participants were recruited in Beijing, Shanghai, and Chongqing. Information on informed choice was collected by questionnaires. The annual incidence rate (spells) of induced abortions was 0.46 (1500/3230) among the participants. The sequence from the highest score to the lowest was long-term, short-term and natural contraceptive methods (p < 0.0001). Significant differences of rates in induced abortions were found in region, occupation, length of the first immigration up to now (year), purpose for immigration, number of children, marital status, sex preference, contraceptive methods, deciders of contraceptive methods and side effects. In the zero-inflated negative binomial model, the joint impacts showed when a participant with one child employed condoms or family planning service providers as the deciders of contraceptive methods introduced intrauterine devices, the occurrence of induced abortions was more likely to be reduced. Women who underwent side effects using pills were more likely to have had induced abortions.

Objectives: To evaluate whether an antenatal and immediate postpartum Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale score are predictive of future postpartum depression and observe the correlation in-between the scores and associated risk factors. Methods: Study Design A survey recruiting 345 women from March 2015 to February 2016 using Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale for same group of individuals: once before the delivery, during third trimester and twice postpartum in women seeking antenatal service in three major hospital of Jiamusi, Heilongjiang Province, China. We used cut-off score <12 as normal and >13 as risk of depression. The relation between EPDS scores across three stages were assessed using Spearman's correlation, chi-square test was used to examine association of socio-demographic variable and series of logistic regression to examine statistical significance between EPDS scores and associated risk factors. Results: A total of 167 women were studied with average age of 28.31±5.036 years. Chi-square test showed that younger (p=0.029), unemployed (p=0.022), primiparous (p=0.039), less educated (p=0.040) women are more prone to perinatal depression. Further Spearman's Non-parametric correlation test showed that postpartum depression has positive correlation with both antepartum (χ 2 =3.977, df=1, p=0.018) and immediate postpartum (χ 2 =3.977, df=1, p=0.046). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that parity (Wald=4.754, p=0.029), and occupation (Wald=3.839, p=0.050) were independent risk factors for antepartum depression. Mode of birth (Wald=4.513, p=0.034), antepartum EPDS score (Wald=3.877, p=0.049) and immediate postpartum EPDS score (Wald=4.038, p=0.044) were independent risk factors for postpartum depression. Conclusions: 1) Higher EPDS score prenatally tends to persist postnatal indicating chances of developing postpartum depression in susceptible individuals. 2) Early screening prenatally can guide clinician for active psychological support to susceptible cases thereby minimizing probability of postpartum depressions.

The second is on the in uencing factors of the utilization of health services of the migrants, but few explored from the perspective of health needs [15][16][17].

Background: China has experienced the largest migration during the past three decades. Compared with the permanent residents, migrants faced more obstacles in accessing essential health care services. This study aimed to explore the association between socioeconomic status and unmet inpatient service need among internal migrants in China. Methods: The data used in this study were from the 2014 nationally representative cross-sectional sample of internal migrants in China. All respondents were aged 15-59 years who had been living in local residence without the ‘Hukou’ for more than one month, and a total of 7592 migrants with inpatient service need were included in this analysis. Results: The migrants with unmet inpatient service need were 1667(21.96%). We found that internal migrants with higher socioeconomic defined by economic status(OR=1.74, 95 CI% 1.55-1.96) and educational attainment (OR=1.77, 95% CI 1.56-2.00) were more inclined to use inpatient services when needed, while the unemployed internal migrants (OR=0.36, 95% CI 0.32-0.41) were more likely to use inpatient service than the employed migrants. After adjustment for other demographic variables such as gender, age, marital status etc., these figures did not substantially change in model 2, the OR were 1.28(95% CI 1.12-1.46), 1.31(95% CI 1.13-1.52), and 0.59(95% CI 0.51-0.68), respectively. Conclusion: Internal migrants with higher socioeconomic defined by economic status and education attainment were more inclined to use inpatient services when needed, while the unemployed internal migrants were more likely to use inpatient service than the employed. This suggests that future policies should make the reimbursement more pro-poor among migrants and more effective policies targeting the migrants with low educational attainment and employed.
