  • Meta-analysis of exercise addiction prevalence across diverse athletic disciplines

    Open Access•Yongzi Zhu, Kun Wang et al.•ARTICLE•Acta Psychologica•2026

    OBJECTIVE: To examine the prevalence and inter-sport differences of exercise addiction through a systematic meta-analysis. METHODS: Following PRISMA guidelines, Chinese and English databases (CNKI, VIP, PubMed, and Embase) were systematically searched for studies reporting exercise addiction prevalence using validated assessment scales. Stata 17.0 was used to perform a meta-analysis of 30 eligible studies encompassing various sports, including ru…

  • Ambiguous by a paradoxical leader: How and when paradoxical leadership hinders employee proactive behavior

    Open Access•Cong Xu, Mingyu Zhang et al.•ARTICLE•Current Psychology•2025

  • Phenotypic and genetically predicted leukocyte telomere length and prostate cancer risk: Results from a large-scale longitudinal cohort study

    Open Access•Xiaoyang Liu, Shengzhuo Liu et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Global Health•2025

    Background: Previous studies on the correlation between leukocyte telomere length (LTL) and prostate cancer (PCa) have shown inconsistent results. We aimed to clarify this association by leveraging a large-scale prospective design and Mendelian randomisation. Methods: We enrolled a total of 229 022 male individuals from the UK Biobank (UKB) to investigate the association between LTL and PCa risk. We employed both unadjusted and covariates-adjuste…

  • Leveraging transformer models to predict cognitive impairment: Accuracy, efficiency, and interpretability

    Open Access•Kai Ma, Junzhi Zhang et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2025

    The enhanced Transformer model offers superior accuracy and efficiency in predicting cognitive decline compared to traditional models. Its capacity to process both continuous and categorical data and its interpretability through attention mechanisms make it a promising tool for early detection of neurodegenerative diseases, potentially improving clinical decision-making and interventions

  • Identifying barriers and facilitators to accessing harm reduction services in prisons: A systematic narrative synthesis

    Open Access•O Varsaneux, Mathieu Charest et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of Drug…•2025

    Several multi-level barriers and facilitators to accessing prison-based HRS exist. To improve HRS uptake, implementing holistic education for PIP and carceral employees, enhancing awareness of HRS through peer-led initiatives, and ensuring buy-in and support from prison leadership will be important. Furthermore, allocation of specific resources and enhanced policies that promote HRS will be beneficial

  • Acoustic Characteristics and Influencing Mechanisms of the Traditional Ancestral Temple Theatre in Northeast Jiangxi

    Open Access•Wei Xiong, Zongli Hu et al.•ARTICLE•Heritage•2025•References: 2

    Currently, there remains a lack of systematic quantitative analysis of the acoustic impact mechanism of ancestral temple theatres in relation to their core function of opera performance. This paper takes the Zhaomutang—a typical ancestral temple theatre in northeast Jiangxi—as an example, and comprehensively uses on-site mapping, impulse response testing, and ODEON three-dimensional sound field simulation to conduct acoustic sensitivity analysis …

    Open Access•Shengzhuo Liu, Xiaoyang Liu et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Global Health•2024

    Background: As one of the most prevalent chronic non-communicable diseases affecting aging males, the burden of benign prostatic hyperplasia is growing over the world. Our study aims at investigating the potential relationships between various blood biomarkers and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in middle-aged and older men in European and East Asian population cohorts. Methods: We included 229 022 male adults from the UK Biobank (UKB) and 20 …

  • Exposure to di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (Dehp) increases the risk of cancer

    Open Access•Luchen Yang, Xiaoyang Liu et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2024

    Cancer is a major socioeconomic burden that seriously affects the life and spirit of patients. However, little is known about the role of environmental toxicant exposure in diseases, especially ubiquitous di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) which is one of the most widely used plasticizers. Hence, the objective of this study was to assess the potential association between cancer and DEHP. The data were collected using the 2011-2018 National Health…

  • Household air pollution and urinary incontinence symptoms among older adults in Lasi: A large-scale population-based study

    Open Access•Xiaoyang Liu, Kai Ma et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2024

    The results of our study indicate that the utilization of solid fuels in the home increases the likelihood of developing urinary incontinence and stress urinary incontinence. As a result, we argue that there is an immediate need to reform the composition of cooking fuel and raise public awareness about the adverse effects of air pollution in the home

  • Developing a Base Domain Ontology from Geoscience Report Collection to Aid in Information Retrieval towards Spatiotemporal and Topic Association

    Open Access•Liufeng Tao, Kai Ma et al.•ARTICLE•ISPRS International Journal of…•2023

    The efficient and precise retrieval of desired information from extensive geological databases is a prominent and pivotal focus within the realm of geological information services. Conventional information retrieval methods primarily rely on keyword matching approaches, which often overlook the contextual and semantic aspects of the keywords, consequently impeding the retrieval system’s ability to accurately comprehend user query requirements. To…

  • Spatio-Temporal Relevance Classification from Geographic Texts Using Deep Learning

    Open Access•Tian Miao, Miao Tian et al.•ARTICLE•ISPRS International Journal of…•2023

    The growing proliferation of geographic information presents a substantial challenge to the traditional framework of a geographic information analysis and service. The dynamic integration and representation of geographic knowledge, such as triples, with spatio-temporal information play a crucial role in constructing a comprehensive spatio-temporal knowledge graph and facilitating the effective utilization of spatio-temporal big data for knowledge…

  • The relationship between depression and benign prostatic hyperplasia in middle-aged and elderly men in India: A large-scale population study

    Open Access•Xiaoyang Liu, Kai Ma et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2023

    Our research found that BPH was significantly linked to the presence of depressive symptoms among middle-aged and elderly Indian men. Additional prospective research is necessary to clarify this association and investigate potential mechanisms

  • Association between sleep quality and benign prostate hyperplasia among middle-aged and older men in India

    Open Access•Kai Ma, Qiang Dong•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2023

    Worse sleep quality was significantly associated with a higher incidence of benign prostatic hyperplasia among middle-aged and older Indian men. A further prospective study is needed to clarify this association and explore potential mechanisms

While broad named entity recognition methods are frequently used to locate places, their accuracy is hampered by the many linguistic abnormaliti…

  • Exploring Multidimensional Spatiotemporal Point Patterns Based on an Improved Affinity Propagation Algorithm

    Open Access•Haifu Cui, Liang Wu et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2019

    Affinity propagation (AP) is a clustering algorithm for point data used in image recognition that can be used to solve various problems, such as initial class representative point selection, large-scale sparse matrix calculations, and large-scale data with fewer parameter settings. However, the AP clustering algorithm does not consider spatiotemporal information and multiple thematic attributes simultaneously, which leads to poor performance in d…
