It is generally known that there is an unequal socioeconomic distribution of migrant worker health in China. In order to reduce the health inequality, the government should make a substantial effort to strengthen policy implementation in improving the income distribution for vulnerable groups. After this investigation, it is apparent that the findings we have made warrant further investigation.

Our investigation indicated that there are many factors associated with SRH. In particular, this study undertook a comprehensive investigation of the associations between sociodemographic, psychosocial, lifestyle factors, and SRH in China, the results of which could better inform medical researchers and governments from a Chinese perspective.

Purpose To identify the factors influencing inpatient satisfaction by fitting the optimal discriminant model. Patients and Methods A cross-sectional survey of inpatient satisfaction was conducted with 3888 patients in 16 large public hospitals in Zhejiang Province. Independent variables were screened by single-factor analysis, and the importance of all variables was comprehensively evaluated. The relationship between patients’ overall satisfaction and influencing factors was established, the relative risk was evaluated by marginal benefit, and the optimal model was fitted using the receiver operating characteristic curve. Results Patients’ overall satisfaction was 79.73%. The five most influential factors on inpatient satisfaction, in this order, were: patients’ right to know, timely nursing response, satisfaction with medical staff service, integrity of medical staff, and accuracy of diagnosis. The prediction accuracy of the random forest model was higher than that of the multiple logistic regression and naive Bayesian models. Conclusion Inpatient satisfaction is related to healthcare quality, diagnosis, and treatment process. Rapid identification and active improvement of the factors affecting patient satisfaction can reduce public hospital operating costs and improve patient experiences and the efficiency of health resource allocation. Public hospitals should strengthen the exchange of medical information between doctors and patients, shorten waiting time, and improve the level of medical technology, service attitude, and transparency of information disclosure.

This study aimed to analyze the status of patient satisfaction in outpatients of tertiary hospitals and the factors affecting patient satisfaction, in order to provide a scientific basis for improving patient satisfaction. Methods: A total of 6480 surveys of outpatients were conducted by a cross-sectional study in 16 tertiary hospitals in the Zhejiang province of China. The main contents of the survey were the basic characteristics of patients. Statistical description, single-factor analysis and binary logistic regression analysis were used to screen influencing factors. Results: Results of this study showed that the total satisfaction score of outpatients was 87.13±13.47, and higher scored factors in the survey factors were nursing level, the convenience of registration and convenience of appointment diagnosis and treatment. The factors with lower scores were treatment effect, environmental sanitation and comfort and other staffs' attitudes. Hospital managers should pay attention to the improvement of treatment level, environmental sanitation and comfort and other staffs' attitudes. Conclusion:In the process of serving outpatients, doctors should pay more attention to patients who are male, 31-45 years old or over 60 years old, permanent residents, from public institutions, possessed postgraduate education, without medical insurance, and who visiting paediatrics and Chinese medicine hospitals.

Background A high-risk prevention strategy is an effective way to fight against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). The China AIDS Fund for Non-Governmental Organizations (CAFNGO) was established in 2015 to help social organizations intervene to protect high-risk populations in 176 cities. This study aimed to evaluate the role of social organizations in high-risk population interventions against HIV/AIDS. Methods This study was based on the CAFNGO program from 2016 to 2020. The collected data included the number and types of social organizations participating in high-risk group interventions and the amount of funds obtained by these organizations each year. We explored the factors influencing the number of newly diagnosed AIDS cases using a spatial econometric model. Furthermore, we evaluated the effectiveness of intervention activities by comparing the percentages of the individuals who initially tested positive, and the individuals who took the confirmatory test, as well as those who retested positive and underwent the treatment. Results Overall, from 2016 to 2020, the number of social organizations involved in interventions to protect HIV/AIDS high-risk populations increased from 441 to 532, and the invested fund increased from $3.98 to $10.58 million. The number of newly diagnosed cases decreased from 9128 to 8546 during the same period. Although the number of cities with overall spatial correlations decreased, the spatial agglomeration effect persisted in the large cities. City-wise, the number of social organizations (direct effect 19.13), the permanent resident population (direct effect 0.12), GDP per capita (direct effect 17.58; indirect effect − 15.38), and passenger turnover volume (direct effect 5.50; indirect effect − 8.64) were the major factors influencing new positive cases confirmed through the testing interventions performed by the social organizations. The initial positive test rates among high-risk populations were below 5.5%, the retesting rates among those who initially tested positive were above 60%, and the treatment rates among diagnosed cases were above 70%. Conclusions The spatial effect of social organizations participating in interventions targeting high-risk populations funded by CAFNGO is statistically significant. Nevertheless, despite the achievements of these social organizations in tracking new cases and encouraging treatment, a series of measures should be taken to further optimize the use of CAFNGO. Working data should be updated from social organizations to CAFNGO more frequently by establishing a data monitoring system to help better track newly diagnosed AIDS cases. Multichannel financing should be expanded as well.
