Prevalence of cognitive frailty, reversible and potentially reversible cognitive frailty among older adults without dementia
Effectiveness of a harmonica-integrated, tele-supervised home-based pulmonary rehabilitation program on lung function and comprehensive health outcomes in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary d…
Introduction Harmonica playing mimics pursed-lip breathing and strengthens respiratory muscles. Combined with music therapy, it may improve both pulmonary and mental health in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, though its effects are not well understood. This protocol outlines a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the effectiveness of integrating harmonica playing into pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) programs. Methods …
Country-specific key lifestyle factors and health outcomes for resource allocation in the general population
Background: We aimed to identify the central lifestyle, the most impactful among lifestyle factor clusters; the central health outcome, the most impactful among health outcome clusters; and the bridge lifestyle, the most strongly connected to health outcome clusters, across 29 countries to optimise resource allocation for local holistic health improvements. Methods: From July 2020 to August 2021, we surveyed 16 461 adults across 29 countries who …

Role of introvert and extrovert personalities in perception of Covid-19’s impact, psychological state, knowledge, infection, and preparedness preferences
Introverts could benefit most from interventions addressing sleep quality, anxiety, depression, fear, and knowledge promotion about COVID-19, while extroverts could benefit most from approaches that address feeling out of control. Extroverts had higher preferences for online consultations, instant personalized health via online chatbots, streaming courses, online courses, and medicine delivery, emphasizing the importance of considering personalit…
Robust identification key predictors of short- and long-term weight status in children and adolescents by machine learning
Background: Early identification of high-risk individuals for weight problems in children and adolescents is crucial for implementing timely preventive measures. While machine learning (ML) techniques have shown promise in addressing this complex challenge with high-dimensional data, feature selection is vital for identifying the key predictors that can facilitate effective and targeted interventions. This study aims to utilize feature selection …
Key lifestyles and health outcomes across 16 prevalent chronic diseases

Participants rated their fear of 11 factors on an 11-point Likert scale. We stratified the data by age and gender and examined va…
Prediction of adolescent weight status by machine learning
The machine learning approaches accurately predict adolescent weight status in both short- and long-term. The developed multiclass model that utilizing easy-assessed variables enables accurate long-term prediction on weight status, which can be used by adolescents and parents for self-prediction when applied in health care system. The interpretable models may help to provide the early and individualized interventions suggestions for adolescents w…
Nonrestorative sleep and its associated factors in Chinese adolescents and the moderation effects of coffee or tea consumption
Longer sleep duration, moderate after-class activity, reduced coffee or tea consumption, and promotion of physical and mental health may help reduce adolescents' NRS. Coffee or tea consumption may help buffer the negative associations of somatic symptoms, stress, anxiety, and depression with NRS

Incidence and temporal trends in type 2 diabetes by weight status
Trends in Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation Needs in China From 1990 to 2030
Background Disability and medical expenses caused by musculoskeletal disorders in China had a great impact on the global health and economy. Rehabilitation is essential for dealing with musculoskeletal disorders. However, China's musculoskeletal rehabilitation needs remain unknown. This study aimed to examine the secular trends for musculoskeletal rehabilitation needs in China from 1990 to 2030. Methods Data on musculoskeletal rehabilitation need…
Late-onset or chronic overweight/obesity predicts low self-esteem in early adolescence
Late-onset or chronic overweight/obesity predicted low general, social and academic/school-related self-esteem. Children who successfully reduced weight may have equal levels of self-esteem or even better social self-esteem than those being always underweight/normal weight. Overweight/obese children had a vulnerability to self-esteem in non-domestic environments
Adaptation and validation of the Chinese version of the Sleep Quality Questionnaire
Measurement properties of the simplified Chinese version of Nonrestorative Sleep Scale in adolescents
This study aimed to assess the measurement properties of a simplified Chinese version of the Nonrestorative Sleep Scale (NRSS) among adolescents. We obtained a simplified Chinese NRSS by the standard forward-backward translation procedures and administered it to 486 students who were attending Grade 7-11 in Nanjing, China. Furthermore, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Athens Insomnia Scale, Centre for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale, and …
Disparities Between HIV Testing Levels and the Self-Reported HIV-Negative Status of Sexually Active College Students
