All the respondents voluntarily completed the questionnaire survey independently ; Repeat questionnaire survey after 3-7 days based on voluntarily willingly. 2 health specialists and the author of WHO self- assessment tool for HPH (Prof. Oliver Groëne) commented the language equivalence of the back translation version.

For each domains: management and policy was 0.793; patients assessment was 0.819; patient information and prevention was 0.807; healthy workplace was 0.785; continuity and cooperation was 0.755. The results showed that Chinese version WHOSATHPH has high internal consistency but it still needs to enlarge the sample size for the further reliability and validity test. Result 2: China HPH current level China hospital leaders self-assessment general score by WHO HPH Questionnaire: Five HPH standard domains: . Continuity and cooperation 28.95 (72.4% of full score 40); . Healthy workplace: 35.71(71.4% of 50),; . Patient information and prevention: 21.34 (71.1% of 30); . Patients assessment: 23.85 (68.1% 35); . Management and policy 28.17( 62.6% of 45). Different Grade hospitals HPH level ( full score 200) No statistic significant difference by Multi-Variance analysis . Grade III (N=21) Mean + SD: 154.19 + 7.34 . Grade II (N=9) Mean + SD: 158.67 + 10.7 . Grade I (n=11) Mean + SD: 144.82 + 14.54 The results showed that Chinese hospital leaders self-assessed a high level HPH, but the general conclusion needs the further large size sampling investigation. Discussion 1 China HPH developing principles, strategies, activities and Effects National Health Promotion Movement: All people are encouraged to join in different kinds of HP activities. Focus on the colourful, effective, and universal health education, stress on the role of all kinds of media: TV, radio, internet, and Newspaper in health education. Focus on interactivity between the patients, public, and health professional workers. The HPH Developing Principles of China Hospital Insist on patients-center and public benefits first. Take into account of the economic effect but not pursuing the marketing profit that can damage the social benefits from health service. Focus on the priority of primary health service, gradually meet people`s diverse or higher level demands of health service. Health service development must match the national or regional economic conditions. Focus on the quality and the efficiency. Stress the reasonable allocation of health resources. Prior to develop the rural health care service. Emphasize the important role of traditional Chinese medicine. China colourful Health Education Activities Lessons from the Unite State failing HPH Research/Const Home Health Other Personal ruction Care Care Focus on disease 3% 2% 9% treatment but not Public Health 3% Hospital Other Medical 33% disease prevention Products and HP. 4% Program Administration 6% Nursing Home 7% Physician & Over depended on the Clinical Drugs Services excellent professional 10% 23% service but ignore the entire social public participation of health promotion movement; The value of health service over emphasizes the individual right and freedom but ignore the entirety and cooperation.

However, the mechanism and risk factors associated with nigral iron deposition in pa- tients with Parkinson’s disease have not been identified and represent a key challenge in understanding its pathogenesis and for its diagnosis. In this study, we assessed iron levels in patients with Parkinson’s disease and in age- and gender-matched control subjects by measuring phase values using magnetic resonance based susceptibility-weighted phase imaging in a 3T magnetic resonance system.

Background: Nonoperative treatment is currently the standard therapy for rib fractures. However, there is a trend towards surgical fixation from conservative management over the last decade. While surgical fixation of rib fractures has shown promising results, its impact on the clinical results remains unclear based on the current literature. As such, the present study aims to compare the short-term outcomes of multiple rib fracture patients treated by surgical fixation with traditional conservative management. Methods: Data for patients with multiple (three or more) rib fractures admitted to our department between January 2012 and January 2019 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Propensity score matched patients were compared between those treated with surgical rib fixation and those of nonoperatively treated.
