  • Multimechanistic actions of functional factors in enhancing physical strength and endurance

    Open Access•Xiangyu Huang, Jingjing Zhu et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Sports and Active…•2026

    This article provides a scoping review of various types of functional factors and their mechanisms of action in enhancing physical strength and endurance, focusing on their roles in regulating the central nervous system, improving energy metabolism, reducing metabolite accumulation, enhancing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capacity, regulating the endocrine system, and improving blood circulation. For functional factors supported by sufficient…

  • Non-linear impact of the built environment on metro commuter flows before and after the Covid-19 outbreak

    Open Access•Peng Zang, Hualong Qiu et al.•ARTICLE•Applied Geography•2024

    The built environment is a crucial factor influencing subway commuting. However, the extent to which the built environment affects metro travel during the COVID-19 pandemic remains under explored. In particular, people's travel patterns and destinations might have changed during the pandemic, influenced by the built environment. The degree to which these influences differ from those in normal circumstances has scarcely been studied. This study in…

  • Effect of built environment on BMI of older adults in regions of different socio-economic statuses

    Open Access•Peng Zang, Kaihan Chen et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2023

    Background: Numerous studies have ignored the influence of underdeveloped urban surroundings on the physical health of China's ageing population. Lanzhou is a typical representative of a less developed city in China. Methods: This study investigated the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and built environment amongst older adults in regions of different socio-economic statuses (SES) using data from medical examinations of older adults in …

  • Differences in the Correlation between the Built Environment and Walking, Moderate, and Vigorous Physical Activity among the Elderly in Low- and High-Income Areas

    Open Access•Peng Zang, Fei Xian et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2022

    Studies have proved that activity and fitness behaviors are closely related to the quality of life and health status of the elderly. However, different intensities of physical activity (PA)-walking, moderate PA, and vigorous PA-have different correlations with the built environment (BE). This study combines the high and low socioeconomic status (SES) of Guangzhou to establish two types of BE models. The physical activity time of 600 elderly peopl…

  • Nonlinear Effects of the Built Environment on Light Physical Activity among Older Adults

    Open Access•Peng Zang, Hualong Qiu et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2022

    The aging of the population is increasing the load on the healthcare system, and enhancing light physical activity among older adults can alleviate this problem. This study used medical examination data from 1773 older adults in Lanzhou city (China) and adopted the random forest model to investigate the effect of the built environment on the duration of light physical activity of older adults. The results showed that streetscape greenery has the …

  • Research on the Difference Between Recreational Walking and Transport Walking Among the Elderly in Mega Cities With Different Density Zones

    Open Access•Peng Zang, Hualong Qiu et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2021

    Walking is the easiest method of physical activity for older people, and current research has demonstrated that the built environment is differently associated with recreational and transport walking. This study modelled the environmental characteristics of three different building density zones in Guangzhou city at low, medium, and high densities, and examined the differences in walking among older people in the three zones. The International Ph…

  • Eye-Level Street Greenery and Walking Behaviors of Older Adults

    Open Access•Peng Zang, Liu Xu-hong et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2020

    Evidence suggests that built environment characteristics affect older adults' travel activity behaviors, e.g., walking and cycling, which have well-established health benefits. However, the relationship between urban greenery and walking behaviors remains unclear, partly due to methodological limitation. Previous studies often measured urban greenery from a bird's eye perspective, which may mismatch with the pedestrian's perception from the stree…

  • Disentangling residential self-selection from impacts of built environment characteristics on travel behaviors for older adults

    Open Access•Peng Zang, Yi Lü et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science & Medicine•2019•Cited by: 15•References: 58

    In the context of population ageing in many developed and developing countries, encouraging active transport behaviors of older adults, is a key public health priority. However, many cross-sectional studies assessing the impact of built environment characteristics on travel behavior fail to address residential self-selection bias, and hence the causal relationship is uncertain. A large-scale public housing scheme provided this study with a unique…
