CCTV News:"Young people have the right to sexual and reproductive health." As soon as he saw Tang Kun, he talked to reporters about the topic of "youth health education" without any guidance from reporters.

As a post-80s young teacher, Tang Kun has been paying attention to the field of adolescent sexual and reproductive health for 15 years. In his words, this field has changed his life track.

The rights of young people

In 1994, the Programme of Action was released at the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) held in Cairo, in which it was mentioned: "The social action for adolescents’ reproductive health needs should be to provide information to help them grow up and make responsible decisions. In particular, teenagers should be provided with information and services that can help them understand their own sexual characteristics … …”

Since the ICPD 24 years ago, great progress has been made in reproductive health and rights on a global scale. At present, China’s population and family planning work has shifted from population control to total regulation, quality improvement and structural optimization, and has entered a new era of "encouraging birth according to policies and promoting long-term balanced population development". People get more information about their reproductive rights and choices, and more ability to defend their rights, including teenagers.

"Youth health education, young people are more sharing and participating, and even leading." Tang Kun said that this is a question about choice and rights, and this youth cause is very important. At present, the number of induced abortions in China is about 9 million every year, and the trend of younger induced abortions is becoming more and more serious. Tang Kun said: "Youth health education focuses on teenagers’ comprehensive sexual and reproductive health, from the confusion of adolescence to the confusion of interpersonal communication, from the decision of sexual behavior to how to prevent the spread of AIDS … …”

Teenagers are the subjects of providing health services, not just the objects. "Health services should aim at satisfying clients, not just looking at statistics. It needs to meet the needs of the group to know, not mandatory, and the communication effect is very important. " Tang Kun said that this is his deepest experience in doing youth health education in recent years.

China youth network with Youth Participation

On World AIDS Day in 2002, Tang Kun, a sophomore and president of the Student Union of Peking University Basic Medical College, led a volunteer team to ditan hospital to publicize how to prevent and treat AIDS. "At that time, many people came to watch. A young man pushed a bicycle to come over and asked what he was doing outside the crowd. When he heard that it was propaganda to prevent AIDS, he immediately pushed the bicycle and ran away." Tang Kun said that he still remembers the left figure. "The core of young people’s right to sexual and reproductive health is not only how to enjoy it, but more importantly, how to exercise it."

In mid-2004, a national youth organization — — China youth network was founded under the initiative and organization of China Family Planning Association (CFPA). Tang Kun has become one of the most active members of this youth organization. "Youth participation" is to let young people participate in his own sexual and reproductive health work, projects and practices.

"I was confused at first. As a young man, how can I effectively participate in it?" Tang Kun said that the World AIDS Conference held in Thailand in 2004 made him suddenly enlightened. It was the first large-scale international conference he attended on behalf of the youth network. At that meeting, he saw the features of young people from all over the world, who stood at the forefront of advocating young people’s sexual and reproductive health rights and preventing AIDS. "I am very excited, and my horizons are broadened at once. By looking at booths and posters in different countries and watching the activities of young people in different countries, we can also do a lot of things to speak on behalf of young people in China! "

After returning, Tang Kun joined the students in the youth network to go to school and enter the community to spread the prevention, scientific research and treatment of AIDS and provide health services for young people. "Sex education is not a physical health class. Comprehensive sex and reproductive health education is to tell young people to keep a positive outlook on life, face the relationship between the sexes correctly and how to overcome peer pressure. Let them also participate in designing these contents. " Through continuous efforts and attempts, china youth network has not only launched a series of various and effective youth health intervention projects in China, but also shared China’s experience with young people in other countries. Since then, the World AIDS Conference has become a position for china youth network to show the confidence and determination of young people in China to prevent AIDS. Up to now, setting up a booth for young people in China at the World AIDS Conference has become a fixed project of the youth network. At every conference, you can see the beautiful elegance of young people in China who advocate AIDS prevention.

Collect "evidence" of youth health education

In 2007, Tang Kun gave up his previous choice — — Peking University’s eight-year doctor of basic medicine. After getting my undergraduate degree, I applied for the global health direction of Harvard University. "Being a doctor was my dream before college, and participating in china youth network changed my later study track and even my life track." After studying for a master’s degree in population and international health at Harvard, Tang Kun went to Oxford to study for a doctorate in epidemiology.

"As a public health practitioner, when designing a project (service), if there is no participation of the client, that is, young people, you don’t know what his needs are? On the one hand, this is the embodiment of rights. On the other hand, it is possible to provide them with better services by listening to the voices of young people and treating them as partners. "

In a class on health system at Harvard, the lecturer was the former health minister of Mexico. He told the young students in the audience that his dream from his youth was to make a developing country like Mexico enjoy health services for all. This deeply touched Tang Kun. His study and research abroad made him more systematically realize the integration of research methods and practice. And his ultimate goal is to return to the motherland and serve the young people in China.

"The research and dissemination of adolescent sexual and reproductive health is more based on experience and lacks evidence." After returning to China after graduating from Ph.D., Tang Kun and the China Family Planning Association jointly launched the Survey on Sexual and Reproductive Health of China University. Through the method of online questionnaire survey, 18,000 college students aged 18-25 registered in Chinese mainland universities were surveyed, covering more than 130 universities in China. Through data analysis, the best practice working mode of youth health is summarized, which provides evidence-based research evidence for youth health education.

In mid-October 2018, Tang Kun was hired as a member of the Expert Advisory Committee on Child Health Indicators of the World Health Organization. In the next two years, together with 11 members from other countries, he will set monitoring indicators for global child health and provide evidence support and policy suggestions for the global realization of sustainable development goals related to child health.

Choice is changing individuals, families, countries and the whole world, and it will continue to change all this. Tang Kun said that his every choice seems to be inseparable from the youth group, and he hopes to become an epidemiologist in this field.

If you choose a hundred-dollar refrigerator, your aunt can’t pick out any problems! Sanhuangjia laboratory

Searching for [mini refrigerator], [dormitory refrigerator] and [car refrigerator] on the e-commerce platform is the most common one. Its scientific name is [Semiconductor cooling and heating box] . The principle is very simple. When a special semiconductor is electrified, a temperature difference will occur between its two ends. One end in the refrigerator absorbs heat, and the other end outside the refrigerator emits heat, which will be blown away by a fan, resulting in a refrigeration effect.

The biggest advantage of this small refrigerator is that Cheap and small in size We chose seven 8-L mini-refrigerators on the e-commerce platform, the prices are basically around 100-200, and only delicious and Pepsi ones are more expensive. In addition, we also bought these two small refrigerators with 20L double refrigeration, as a control group, to see how different the small refrigerators are under different specifications.

There are many online complaints about small refrigerators, such as Refrigeration, crotch pulling, loud noise Some people are worried that it is just a sample and lacks practicality. More people are worried that the dormitory power supply or car power supply will not be able to move it. These are the questions to be answered in this program.

Refrigeration test

The first is the most critical refrigeration efficiency. We try our best to find a test environment similar to ordinary university dormitories, with slender apartment, one-sided ventilation, low floors and high floors.

Seven 8L mini-refrigerators to be tested are placed on the ground, and the back end is 20cm away from the corner, leaving enough space for the exhaust port. We use a temperature inspector, put the sensor in the middle of the box and record the temperature every five minutes.

The test starts at 20:00 every day and ends at 16:00 the next day, with a total length of 20 hours. During this period, the power metering socket will record the cumulative power consumption of the small refrigerators.

Test start An hour and a half After that, all refrigerators reached the maximum cooling capacity, and then there was no obvious change. Their refrigeration capacity is divided into four grades:

First gear Delicious and beautiful The temperature in the refrigerator is 17.5℃ lower than the room temperature; The temperature difference between the inside and outside of Oaks is 1℃ less than them, which belongs to the second gear; The third gear is Pepsi, with a refrigeration capacity of about 14℃; Xinfei, SAST, OGE The refrigeration effect is relatively average, which is more than 11℃ and does not exceed 12℃, ranking fourth.

But this is only the case of empty box test. If they are really used to freeze drinks, will there be any difference in refrigeration performance?

So next, we will fill most of the space of these refrigerators with drinks: this small refrigerator with 8L capacity is basically equipped with One bottle plus four cans of drinks is almost full. This load may be smaller than many friends expected.

In this round of test, we have arranged four temperature sensors in each refrigerator, two of which record the air temperature in the box, and the other two probes respectively extend into two cans close to the inner wall of the refrigerator to record the temperature of the liquid. The test still starts at 20:00 every day and ends at 16:00 the next day, with a total length of 20 hours.

The result is really different from the empty box test.

No matter the temperature in the box or the temperature of the liquid, there is no longer an empty box to test it for an hour and a half and then keep it stable. The cooling speed of the refrigerator has slowed down. And you can always see the downward trend of the temperature curve, although after 14 hours, this trend basically becomes very weak.

There have also been some changes in the ranking of refrigeration capacity of refrigerators.

Let’s look at the temperature in the box first. Oaks’ performance has improved, and it has become the same as delicious and Meiling. Xinfei also caught up with Pepsi, ranking second; By the end of the test, the remaining preclinical and OGE were only about 9℃ lower than the room temperature.

However, the result of liquid temperature is not the same as the air temperature in the box. Delicious, Meiling, Aux Still in the first gear, the performance is closer; The biggest difference is in the second gear, cooling drinks, catching up with Pepsi is Xianke, which is about 1℃ worse than Pepsi; The temperature in the box is ranked second. Xinfei Frozen drinks are the worst, worse than OGE.

Apart from Xinfei and Xianke, the temperature in the other five refrigerators and the temperature of drinks basically change synchronously, but the cooling rate of liquid is faster than that of air, and the final temperature is lower than that of air.

In fact, the temperature measured in all refrigerators is higher than that of empty boxes, and the temperature of drinks is lower than that of empty boxes, and the delicious coke is even lower than 0℃.

However, considering that this round of testing took three days to complete, the room temperature varies by about 1℃ every day. Perhaps due to the influence of room temperature, the cokes of Meiling and Oaks failed to freeze below 0℃? So we made another round of additional tests for the top three to see if they can still freeze out at the current room temperature of 25℃!

As a result, because the room temperature has increased, none of them can freeze the coke below 0℃ this time. However, the three refrigerators are also divided into high and low: Coca-Cola still has the cooling ability of 21.5℃, freezing the liquid temperature of Coke to 3℃; The cooling ability of Meiling and Oaks was obviously affected by the higher room temperature, and their coke liquid temperature stayed at about 6℃.

The above is the refrigeration situation of the 8L small refrigerator. What about the 20L one?

Just say these two models we bought, and the results are a bit confusing: Delicious 20L refrigeration is worse than 8L refrigeration. Pepsi’s 20L has gradually surpassed its own 8L. However, just when we were expecting it to be more than 20L delicious, the monitoring temperature suddenly bounced back. After the retest, it was confirmed that Pepsi was broken!

Power consumption test

Can the power supply in student dormitory support the work of small refrigerator? The e-commerce page is clearly written: The cooling power is about 40W. , the dormitory is available. Note that the 40W here is only when the refrigerator is empty. What will happen if the refrigerator is full?

At the same time of refrigeration test, we also used the power metering socket to test the real-time power of the small refrigerator filled with drinks and the accumulated power consumption after 20 hours of operation.

The test results show that when it is full, The refrigeration power of 8L small refrigerator is generally 50~55W. Continuous operation for 20 hours consumes about 1.1 kwh of electricity. There is no problem in using it in the dormitory. .

Among them, the small refrigerator with the best energy consumption control is Xianke, and the refrigeration power is basically less than half of other products; The second place to save electricity is the delicious 8L refrigerator with excellent refrigeration effect. However, the power consumption of the same 20L refrigerator is "outstanding"; Even more outrageous is Pepsi, whose 8L refrigerator is not efficient, but its 20L refrigerator is surprisingly energy-saving, which is lower than most 8L refrigerators, including Pepsi’s own.

Noise test

Compared with the power consumption of small refrigerators, people may be more concerned about noise.

In a room with a stable noise floor of 48~50 decibels, we tested the noise at the rear fan of each refrigerator, read the data for 20 seconds and recorded the average value.

Test results: the noise champions in the selection are 8L delicious and Oaks. Meiling, a little better. The quietest ones are Xinfei and Xianke. 8L Pepsi ranked third.

Purchase suggestion

After some tossing, we summed up three indicators to evaluate the performance and experience of small refrigerators: Refrigeration effect, power consumption and noise . And give purchase suggestions.

However, for a product like a small refrigerator, which one should you buy Depends on your usage scenario.

For the student party who wants to freeze drinks in the dormitory, Meiling is cost-effective, moderately priced, with strong refrigeration performance and good face value, but it is a little noisy. If you or your roommate is sensitive to noise, you have to settle for the second best, and choose Baccalaureate or Pepsi.

The new middle-class car-mounted refrigerator is recommended, with fashionable appearance and eternal refrigeration performance. If there is enough storage space, it can be upgraded to 20L, with limited performance loss, but it can hold many other foods besides drinks, so it is a good companion for camping.

As for OGE, which is the least recommended, it is really an all-round and balanced player. Not only is the refrigeration performance the worst, but the noise is also big. The key point is that the price is not much cheaper.

That’s all the content of this program. With a hard-core attitude, we will make a material evaluation. Here is the evaluation of Huang’s family, and a group of professional, interesting and serious friends are waiting for you.
