“…As known, inequality in health is undesirable because it has significant effects on other parts of society, such as infectious diseases, adolescent-related health issues, alcohol or drug abuse, and violence or crime [ 77 ]. The research promotes trans-department and international government cooperation calling for action on primary health care [ 66 , 72 , 74 ], global health security [ 78 , 79 ], immunization vaccination [ 80 , 81 ], sexual and reproductive health [ 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 , 86 , 87 ], maternal [ 64 , 88 , 89 ], adolescent [ 90 , 91 , 92 , 93 , 94 ], and family planning [ 89 ], NCDs [ 95 , 96 , 97 ], NTDs prevention [ 98 , 99 ], cancer screening and treatment [ 100 , 101 ], etc. This would have a positive lifelong effect on health.…”

Objectives: This study aimed to visualize the evidence in the global research on health education to better improve the nation’s health literacy and to guide future research. Method: We searched the Web of Science (Core Collection) electronic databases. The search strategies: topic: (“Health Education” OR “Education, Health” OR “Community Health Education” OR “Education, Community Health” OR “Health Education, Community”) AND document: (Article) AND language:(English). Articles of evidence from January 2011 to December 2021 with those words in the title or abstract or keywords will be included in this review. We used the Citespace 5.6.R5 (64-bit) to investigate and determine the thematic patterns, and emerging trends of the knowledge domain, and presented a narrative account of the findings. Result: We analyzed 10,273 eligible articles. It showed that BMC Public Health displays the most prolific journals. Author MARCO PAHOR is highlighted in health education. The University of Sydney has published the most studies about health education. The USA plays an important role in these studies. Specifically, the visualization shows several hotspots: disease prevalence surveys and a specific population of knowledge, attitude and practice surveys, health intervention, chronic and non-communicable management, youth-health action, sexual and reproductive health, and physical activity promotion. Furthermore, document co-citation analysis indicated that there are 10 main clusters, which means the research front in health education. Meanwhile, by the citation detected, COVID-19, has achieved universal health coverage in related studies, however, public health education and the health workforce might be more popular in the coming years. Conclusion: Health education is an effective measure to shift the concept of public health and improve healthy living standards. The present study facilitates an extensive understanding of the basic knowledge and research frontiers that are pivotal for the developmental process of health education and allows scholars to visualize the identification modes and tendencies.

“…This has been connected to low levels of sexual and reproductive health literacy across the population (Ma et al, 2018; Shi et al, 2021; United Nations Population Fund China [UNFPA], 2018). Attitudes to sex have remained highly conservative in Chinese society (Ma et al, 2021). Official educational material about sex is highly conservative, focusing on the biology of reproduction, but not on sexuality and desire (Ji and Reiss, 2021).…”

“…On the other hand, Chinese market reform and modernization, with the import of global products and entertainment media, have led to more liberalized sexual attitudes and behaviours (Lau et al, 2021; Zheng et al, 2011), especially among the younger generation (Blair and Scott, 2019). There has been a rise in the normalization of premarital sex (Ma et al, 2021). Yet it is known that young people have a limited awareness of STDs and self-protection (Liu et al, 2020), which remain largely taboo subjects for them (Shi et al, 2021).…”

Representing cervical cancer in a government social media health campaign in China: moralizing and abstracting women’s sexual health

This article analyses an award-winning film produced as part of the Chinese government’s ‘Healthy China Initiative’ to increase awareness of cervical cancer among young women. The film was designed to be social media friendly, using a more accessible popular style, and it achieved over 350 million views on Chinese social media. The aim had been to shift away from a tradition of more formal, authoritative public information content. Using multimodal critical discourse analysis in the broader tradition of critical health communication studies, the findings support other critics of Chinese public health information in relation to women’s reproductive health. Despite the accessible style, the authors find a highly conservative ideology of womanhood, where the actual nature of cervical cancer, caused by the very common Human Papillomavirus, is obscured in a highly moralized message about sexual abstinence. The film also represents a view of Chinese health services that glosses the difficulty of access for many, as well as public concerns about corruption and clientelism.

“…At the European level, the contents of the SRH subject in undergraduate nursing curricula have traditionally been structured in two large areas: (1) Reproductive Health, which includes, on the one hand, topics on the care of women during their pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum, and on the other hand topics that focus on the treatment and diagnosis of diseases and conditions that affect the physical and emotional well-being of women; and (2) Sexual Health, which includes topics that focus on sexuality and sexual relationships [5][6][7]. In other contexts, such as China [8], Ethiopia [9] or Argentina [10], the SRH contents of nursing curricula are mainly focused on reproductive health.…”

Background: It is very important that nurses receive adequate training in Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH). In this study, the contents of the SRH subject in the undergraduate nursing curricula of 77 Spanish universities were examined in order to determine what SRH training nursing students are receiving. Methods: The contents of the SRH subject of all the curricula that were available online were reviewed. The distribution of the contents (topics) in the two areas (reproductive health and sexual health) was analyzed, and the prevalence of each topic was established. It was also determined whether there were differences in topics between public (n=52) and private universities (n=25). Results: The training of nursing students focuses mainly on the area of Reproductive Health (15 topics). Most of the topics of this area had a prevalence greater than 50%. Although the area of Sexual Health had 14 topics, most of these topics had a low prevalence (&lt;20%), especially in private universities. Conclusions: It was found that there is considerable variation in the distribution and prevalence of SRH topics between universities. The contents of the area of Reproductive Health are usually prevalent in most of the curricula, however the contents of the area of Sexual Health are very limited in most of the universities. An organizational effort is required to determine and standardize the contents of SRH that nursing students should receive in Spain to avoid inequalities in their training.
