Impacts of sub-daily rapid temperature drops on winter outdoor thermal comfort under climate change
As climate change progresses, extreme heat and cold events are well documented. However, the sub-daily rapid temperature drop (RTD), characterized by a fast ambient temperature decrease within hours, remains understudied especially in subtropical regions where local residents are less adapted to cold, despite its significant impacts on human thermal comfort and health. This study examines wintertime RTD events in Hong Kong, inspecting the extreme…
Urban-rural disparities in child linear growth
Background: Child linear growth lags behind in rural areas compared to urban areas in least developed countries (LDCs). The extent to which household environments - digital, physical, and socioeconomic - are associated with this urban-rural gap remains unclear. We quantified how these household environments contribute to the urban-rural difference in linear growth among children. Methods: We pooled cross-sectional data from the demographic and he…
Explaining rural–urban disparities in child stunting in African least developed countries
BACKGROUND: Rural-urban disparities in child stunting persist in African least developed countries (LDCs), undermining progress towards Sustainable Development Goal 2.2. However, multi-country evidence remains limited on which underlying factors account for these disparities. This study examined rural-urban differences in child stunting across 18 African LDCs and assessed the relative contributions of distal socioeconomic resources and proximal h…

This study examined the joint association of body mass index (BMI), nap duration, and nighttime sleep duration with rheumatoid arthritis prevalence among middle-aged and older Chinese adults. Data from 10,127 individuals aged 45 years and older, obtained from the 2015 China Health and Retirement Longitudi…
Value regimes from authenticity nostalgia to xiaozi-class lifestyle
Liminalising and affectivising cityscape as a branding practice
The emerging ‘affective turn’ across different disciplines has demonstrated how affect serves as indispensable driving forces in the constitution of practices in social life. Against this backdrop, inspired by posthumanism, the materialisation of affect in the field of linguistic/semiotic landscape is still short on empirical backgrounds, especially in the urban context of China. In this article, by combining approaches of sensory ethnography and…
Global temporal trends in depression incidence among women of childbearing age
This study examines global trends in depression incidence among women of childbearing age (WCBA) from 1992 to 2021 and projects future trends through 2030. Using data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 and applying the age-period-cohort (APC) model, we analyzed temporal patterns across age groups, periods, and birth cohorts. The global incidence of depression in WCBA increased from 77.57 million cases in 1992 to 127.02 million cases in …

The microbiome has emerged as a key determinant of human health and reproduction, with recent evidence suggesting a dysbiotic microbiome is implicated in adverse perinatal health outcomes. The existing research has been limited by the sample collection and timing, cohort design, sample design, and lack of data on the preconception microbiome. This prospective, longitudinal cohort study will recruit 2000 Australian women, in order to fully explore…
The intertemporal substitution effect of energy consumption under climate policy changes
Based on the intertemporal substitution effect, the high inflation expectations can stimulate agents to consume now rather than in the future. However, under the background of global climate policy changes, how inflation expectations affect energy consumption? Using the bootstrap Granger full-sample causality test and sub-sample rolling window tests, this study examines the intertemporal substitution effect of energy consumption in the U.S. The r…
Study of Urban Heat Island Effect in Hangzhou Metropolitan Area Based on SW-TES Algorithm and Image Dichotomous Model
In recent years, with economic development, urbanization has been accelerating. In the past 100 years, the global average temperature has increased by 0.5°C, and according to the predictions of most global climate models, the temperature will continue to increase by 1.5°C to 3.0°C in the next 100 years. Under the influence of global warming, the urban heat island effect problem is becoming more and more serious, bringing much harm. Studying the t…
Effects of microclimatic factors on stomatal conductance of plants in vertical greenery systems in humid subtropical areas
Drivers of CO2 Emissions
CO 2 emissions and debt accumulation are twin threats to sustainable development. To fill the gap that few studies can untangle the reasons behind CO 2 emissions from the debt perspective, we illustrate debt can cause CO 2 emissions through various channels. We then examined how debt-based drivers impact emission trajectories. We use the logarithmic mean Divisia index (LMDI) method to decompose the emission changes into five factors. We make deco…

Cross-Lagged Modeling of Cognition and Social Network Size in the Sydney Memory and Ageing Study
Findings support a co-constitutive view of cognitive function and social relationships in older age. Although both cognition and network size declined over time, slower than expected decline in language ability predicted less than expected contraction in social networks. A similar influence of network size on executive functioning indicated that relationships with friends and family outside of the home contributed significantly to the maintenance…

Military industry bubbles
The rapid growth in defence expenditure in China raises the concern that investments in the defence sector crowd out investments in social sectors, i.e., the ‘guns for butter’ argument. This article resorts to the bubble testing method to study the trade-off between defence and utilities sectors in the Chinese capital market. Based upon the generalized sup Augmented Dickey-Fuller (GSADF) test, this paper captures and date stampings explosive beha…
How do firms form inflation expectations? Empirical evidence from the United States
Inflation expectations of firms affect their micro-decision-making behaviors and therefore impact the macro-economy. Thus, a deep understanding of how firms form inflation expectations benefits the achievement of central bank's policy objectives on macro-economic sustainability and development. In this paper, we focus on the inflation expectations of firms from surveys. Specifically, the Nave Expectation, Adaptive Expectation, Rational Expectatio…
