Land-Use Restructuring in Quasi-Industrial Districts Under Deindustrialization
Quasi-Industrial Districts (QIDs) in Japan allow the coexistence of industrial, residential, and commercial functions. However, under pressures such as deindustrialization, demographic decline, and urban restructuring, their functional balance has been increasingly disrupted. This study investigates the spatiotemporal evolution of QIDs in Kitakyushu and develops a GIS-based framework to quantify changes in land-use structure. Using historical zon…
Hierarchical materials from fused silk
Silk is an extraordinary natural material whose unique chemistry and hierarchical organization enable performance beyond that of many synthetic counterparts. However, its poor processability arising from the molecular folding patterns of fibroin makes fabricating shapes other than fibres conceptually challenging. Here we report a simple and rapid thermomechanical process to fuse silk fibres into solid materials of arbitrary shapes. This approach …
The double-edged sword effects of STARA use on employee performance and well-being
Purpose In the digital era, smart technology, artificial intelligence, robotics and algorithms (STARA) are widely used in the workplace, capturing the attention of numerous researchers. Although prior research has demonstrated that STARA use can enhance employee outcomes, an emerging body of evidence reveals adverse associations, yielding fragmented and inconclusive findings. To reconcile these discrepancies, the present study systematically exam…
Exploring the multidimensional impact of caregiver burden in patients with inflammatory bowel disease
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, non-specific inflammatory condition characterized by periods of relapse and remission, often requiring frequent medical visits. Family members, who are central to the patient's social support network, often serve as primary caregivers, facing significant physiological, psychological, and financial strain. However, research on caregiver burden in IBD is limited. This study aimed to assess …
Deepening the construction of family doctor teams through the integration of the “1 + 1” working method
The family doctor system is crucial in connecting primary care and public health services. This study evaluates the “1 + 1” working method implemented at the Qingling Street Community Health Service Center in Wuhan, China. The method integrates a close-knit medical consortium and refined management to enhance service delivery. Key outcomes include a 95.33% coverage rate among high-risk populations, an 81% contracting rate for older adult patients…
Transforming Community‐Based Rehabilitation Services
BACKGROUND: To understand the experiences of clients, caregivers and staff in community day rehabilitation centres (DRCs) and identify areas for improvement in service processes and the clinical care of stroke, frailty and hip fracture, a national quality improvement project was undertaken using experience-based co-design (EBCD). The goal was to prioritise and co-design system-level changes for community-based rehabilitation care in Singapore. ME…
Social isolation in relation to the incidence and dynamic progression of frailty in the oldest old
This study indicates that social isolation may contribute to an increased risk of both the incidence and progression of frailty, elevating deterioration risks in initially non-frail and prefrail populations, while primarily exacerbating mortality risks in those already experiencing prefrailty or frailty
Astragali Radix-Angelicae Sinensis Radix inhibits the activation of vascular adventitial fibroblasts and vascular intimal proliferation by regulating the TGF-β1/Smad2/3 pathway

HIV risk and influence factors among MSM who had sought sexual partners in core venues
Background: Seeking sexual partners in men who have sex with men (MSM) venues has been regarded as a high-risk behavior for HIV among MSM. Nevertheless, with the implementation of venue-based interventions and the change in the way MSM seek sexual partners, the continued status of MSM venues as the HIV risk factor remains inconclusive. This study endeavors to delve into this ambiguity by examining the MSM sexual contact network (SCN) as a foundat…
Association of Barrett's esophagus with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
This study identifies a potential association between BE and an increased occurrence of OSAS, as well as the reverse relationship. These insights could influence future screening protocols and prevention strategies for both conditions
Euphorbium total triterpenes improve Freund's complete adjuvant-induced arthritis through PI3K/AKT/Bax and NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathways
Characterisation of Salmonella Enteritidis ST11 and ST1925 Associated with Human Intestinal and Extra-Intestinal Infections in Singapore
Salmonella Enteritidis is a major foodborne pathogen worldwide. In this study, a total of 276 S. enteritidis isolates, collected between 2016 and 2017 from human, food and farm/slaughterhouse samples, were studied to enhance the understanding of the epidemiology of human salmonellosis in Singapore. Results showed all 276 isolates belonged either to ST1925 (70.3%) or ST11 (29.7%), with ST11 being significantly more frequent in extra-intestinal iso…

Gibraltarians’ attitudes towards Brexit and the Gibraltar-Spain frontier
This paper theorizes the border as imbricated in everyday life, especially in a small territory such as Gibraltar. We document the results of a 2018 survey of Gibraltarians’ attitudes toward the frontier between the 2016 Brexit referendum and the planned departure of the UK from the EU in 2019. We argue that virtually all respondents felt that a change in the border regime would affect community cohesion and identity. Second, we argue that genera…
