深圳市居民气候变化相关健康素养现状及综合干预效果评估OA

[Background]Climate change poses a significant threat to public health.In China,relevant health intervention research is still in its early stages,and evidence for evaluating the effectiveness of regional climate change health adaptation strategies and measures is scarce. [Objective]To investigate the level of climate change-related health literacy among residents in Shenzhen,implement targeted health interventions,and assess the intervention effects as well as their influencing factors. [Methods]From July 2023 to January 2024,4 communities were randomly selected in Shenzhen,and a total of 896 community residents were enrolled and divided into an intervention group(444 participants)and a control group(452 participants).Baseline and follow-up surveys on climate change-related health literacy were conducted among residents for both groups.During the period between the two surveys,the intervention group received targeted health interventions.Health literacy—comprising 3 dimensions:basic health knowledge and concepts,basic health skills,and healthy lifestyles—was defined as achieving≥80％of the total score.A differences-in-differences model was adopted to analyze the impact of the intervention,and multiple linear regression was used to explore the factors influencing the intervention effect. [Results]The baseline survey showed that 240 out of the 896 surveyed residents(26.79％)possessed climate change health literacy.For the 3 dimensions,the number of residents and the proportions with corresponding literacy in descending order were:basic health skills(521,58.15％),healthy lifestyles(345,38.50％),and basic health knowledge and concepts(44,4.91％).After the intervention,the inter-vention group showed a 3.19％increase in the total health literacy score,a 3.55％increase in basic health knowledge and concepts,and a 4.24％increase in basic health skills(t=2.79,2.77,and 2.47 respectively)(P<0.05).No significant change was observed in healthy lifestyle scores(t=0.70,P>0.05).Further analysis showed that awareness of the"dual carbon goals"and occupation were significantly associated with the intervention effect on overall health literacy(P<0.05).For basic health knowledge and concepts,occupation,history of chronic diseases,and awareness of the"dual carbon goals"had statistically significant effects on the intervention outcomes(P<0.05).Regarding basic health skills,awareness of the"dual carbon goals"significantly influenced the intervention effect(P<0.001).In terms of healthy lifestyles,gender,educational level,occupation,and awareness of climate change were significantly associated with the intervention effect(P<0.05). [Conclusion]The climate change-related health literacy among community residents in Shenzhen is in urgent need of improvement.Health interventions can effectively enhance residents'basic health knowledge and concepts,basic health skills,and overall literacy level.In the future,it is necessary to strengthen the popularization of climate change health knowledge based on different population charac-teristics and further optimize intervention strategies,to comprehensively improve residents'health adaptation capacity to climate change.
