10 Researchers at the University of Maryland's School of Nursing found that 55 percent of the 2, 103 female nurses they surveyed were obese(肥胖的), citing job stress and the effect on sleep of long , irregular work hours as the cause.
The study, which measured obesity using estimates of body mass index(体质指数), found that nursing schedules affected not only the health of the nurses but the quality of patient care .
\that relates to things that aren't totally under control in their own lives. It's not
uniform for health care professionals to eat well or avoid tobacco,\Katz, the director of the Yale University Prevention Research Center.
Keith-Thomas Ayoob, associate professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, said nurses are just as susceptible to health problems as the rest of society. \health professionals doesn't mean we stopped being members of regular society with all the problems that go along with it. It illustrates that knowledge alone isn't always enough to produce behavioral changes,\ The same is true with smoking, Ayoob said.

15 A new study shows an astonishing number of people are using their cellphones on the john(盥洗室). From web browsing and texting to conference calls and online shopping, it seems this technology-driven world leaves no time for bathroom breaks. 11 mark, an integrated marketing agency, surveyed 1 ,000 American mobile users in October. Seventy-five percent of them admitted they used their phones while on the toilet— leaving no mystery as to what happens behind closed stalls.

Boomers(1946—1964)and 80 percent of Gen X-ers(1965—1976)use their cell phones in the bathroom.
But as expected, Generation Y has the highest percentage of multitaskers, using their phones and the john at the same time.
Did the same percentage of Gen Y wash their hands afterward? Ninety-two percent of those surveyed reported they washed their hands after using the restroom(perhaps all those \off).
But unfortunately the same cannot be said for their mobile devices—only 14 percent wash theirphones after using the bathroom. Maybe this calls for a new-age health initiative, requiring public restaurants to change their signs to \hands—and your phone—before returning to work. \
And for many, toilet talking and texting was not a just one-time thing, used only in the most dire(急迫的)circumstances. Twenty-four percent of mobile users reported they actually don 't go to the bathroom without their phones.
In a world where you can 't even have a moment of solitude(独处)on the toilet, one is forced to wonder, isn't anything sacred anymore?
