The hedonic value of urban greenspaces
Urban greenspaces (UGS) contribute to residential property values, and their hedonic effects have been evaluated using Hedonic Price Modelling (HPM) approach. Yet, systematic synthesis of UGS hedonic effects remains limited. This meta-analysis aims to fill in this knowledge gap. A total of 228 observations from 88 primary studies spanning North America, Europe, Asia and Australia are taken into a three-level random-effects meta-regression model, …
Strategies for Overcoming Challenges in Promoting a Socially-More Responsive Code of Building Information Modeling in Egypt
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a potential solution to numerous challenges in asset management, including missing data, incompatible software, and unclear business processes. However, the current use of BIM in construction projects has focused on the application of technology and digital information delivery, neglecting system compatibility and information needs.

Izalpinin from fruits of Alpinia oxyphylla with antagonistic activity against the rat bladder contractility
Izalpinin exhibits inhibitory role of muscarinic receptor-related detrusor contractile activity, and it may be a promising lead compound to treat overactive bladder
Mobile donation in America
Mobile donation has gained mainstream media attention since the Haiti Earthquake Relief in 2010. Yet, there is still a lack of research on mobile donation as a new venue of technology-mediated civic engagement. Using nationally representative survey data, this research examines the variations in mobile donation by mobile phone usage patterns and user characteristics such as age, race, and socioeconomic status. Results show that the diversity of m…

Use of complementary and alternative medicine by cancer patients at Zhejiang University Teaching Hospital, Zhuji Hospital, China
Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is garnering increasing interest and acceptance among the general population throughout the world. The use of CAM by cancer patients is very common in China. The referenced English literature has no rural community-based study from China on this subject. This study was conducted to define the prevalence, pattern of use, and reasons for using CAM by cancer patients at Zhejiang University Teaching Hospit…
The association of birth weight with arterial stiffness at mid-adulthood
BACKGROUND: Birth weight has been found to predict cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Pulse wave velocity (PWV), a marker of arterial stiffness, has been associated with cardiovascular risk factors. An association between birth weight and blood pressure (BP) has previously been reported. In this study, the association of birth weight with PWV, and the relationship between birth weight, pulse wave velocity and BP in mid-adulthood were investi…
The Logic of Ethnic Business Distribution in Multiethnic Cities
The authors propose a model for understanding ethnic business locations in multiethnic cities. The central argument of the framework is that the location of ethnic businesses reflects the match between the neighborhood business environment and the unique locational demand of the ethnic businesses involved in particular industrial sectors. Hypotheses were tested by a data set of Chinese businesses in the Toronto area drawn from business directorie…
