“…22 This theory believes that it is not only personal characteristics and lifestyle that can affect personal health, but also external environment, medical health, interpersonal culture and other factors. 23 Our health management is jointly participated by one hospital, three communities, families, and individuals. Brain and heart health managers connected each part as a "bridge" in the process.…”

Purpose: To examine the effectiveness of goal-based health management on health knowledge, health belief and health behavior in people at high risk of stroke. Patients and Methods: This is a two-armed and non-randomized controlled trial from May 31, 2020 to December 31, 2020. Participants were arranged to receive regular health care (n=126) or goal-based health management (n=126). The generalized estimation equation was used to analyze the changes in the participants' health knowledge, health belief and health behavior at baseline (T0), 1-month (T1), 3-month (T3), and 6-month (T6). Results: A total of 243 participants completed the 6-month study, of which 123 were in the control group and 120 were in the intervention group. After receiving goal-based health management, participants' health behavior (β=27.154, p<0.001), health knowledge (β=10.504, p<0.001) and health belief (β=49.057, p<0.001) scores increased significantly. Conclusion:Goal-based health management can effectively improve the health knowledge, health belief and health behavior of people at high risk of stroke. We recommend that nurses can provide goal-based health management for people at high risk of stroke with support from hospitals and family members of people at high risk of stroke.

“…Indeed, health is affected by not only lifestyle and socioeconomic conditions but also other factors that have not traditionally been studied and considered as risk or protective factors (Boekaerts, Maes, & Karoly, ; Marmot, ; Singh‐Manoux, ; Tarkowski, ). Starting from the idea that the origins of disease are often outside the health sector, as classically understood (Annett & Nickson, ), interest has grown in developing an environmental analysis focused on the effect of place on health (Macintyre & Ellaway, ; Macintyre, Maciver, & Sooman, ) and on well‐being (Atkinson, Fuller, & Painter, ; Rollero & De Piccoli, ).…”

The aim of the study is to assess the predictive role of the affective link with the place of residence (place attachment) and the perception of one's own community of residence (sense of community) on health and quality of life. Other variables were considered: size of place of residence, income, level of education, marital status, age, and gender. Participants included 344 adult subjects living in Piedmont, Italy. The instruments used were the Italian Sense of Community Scale, the Residential Attachment Scale, and the Italian version of the WHOQOL‐BREF questionnaire. Data showed that (a) quality of life is affected by sense of community, but not by place attachment, and (b) living in a small town enhances the environmental, psychological, and relational quality of life.

“…Проблемы общественного здравоохранения становятся все более сложными, кроме прочего и за счет экологических и социальных угроз, возникающих в результате быстрой индустриализации, роста числа населения, чрезмерного потребления природных ресурсов и ненадлежащего использования технологий, что приводит к росту заболеваемости различными патологиями, в том числе и дизиммунной [26]. Примером этого может быть анализ роста заболеваемости ВПНП в ЛО.…”

Background. Inflammatory polyneuropathies (IPNP) are diseases caused by an immune response against antigens in the peripheral nervous system. Epidemiological research is essential for health resource planning.Objective: to assess the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of acute and chronic IPNP in adults in the Leningrad region.Materials and methods. We analyzed the incidence of acute and chronic IPNP the Leningrad region for the last 24 years.Results. A gradual increase in the incidence rate since 2003 with slight fluctuations has been shown. A particularly significant increase was recorded in 2015 from 14 (2014) to 22 patients, while in previous years fluctuations ranged from 4 to 10 people. In 2016 and 2017, the number of cases increased even more to 26–27 per year (there are 1 600 000 residents over 18 years of age in the region). At the same time, an increase in the incidence of both Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) was noted. The incidence of GBS in the last 10 years was 0.18–0.88, the incidence of CIDP was the same 0.18–1.0 per 100 000 population. With GBS, women were more likely to get sick, with CIDP – men. With GBS, the debut was more often in winter (35 %), in summer and autumn, 25 % each, less often in spring – 17 %. The average age of GBS development in our study was 50.3 years. CIDP also fell ill at all age periods from 19 to 84 years (average age 55.6 years). The most common GBS triggers were acute respiratory viral infections in 36 % and enterocolitis in 13 %. Respiratory disorders requiring mechanical ventilation were observed in 8 % of patients with GBS.Conclusions. The incidence of IPNP in adults, both acute and chronic in the Leningrad region, is growing with some fluctuations. This should be taken into account for health resource planning.
