Effects of a Taiwanese Practice of Board Game Program on Cognitive Function and Loneliness Among Older Adults in Long-Term Care Facilities
Stimulating leisure activities have been increasingly recognized as meaningful strategies to maintain cognitive health and reduce psychosocial risks among older adults. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a structured board game intervention in enhancing cognitive function and reducing loneliness among older adults living in long-term care facilities in Taiwan. Using a quasi-experimental design, 67 residents were assigned to either an inter…
The risk factors of future exacerbations and treatment responses among different inhalation therapies of patients with preserved ratio impaired spirometry
Background: Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) is closely related to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, there is a lack of relevant research on the treatment of patients with PRISm. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the risk factors of future exacerbations and treatment responses among different inhalation therapies of patients with PRISm. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study. Patients with PRISm wer…
Reframing digital literacy
Digital literacy has emerged as a foundational competency for personal development, social participation, and civic empowerment, driven by the deep integration of digital technologies and an accelerating global transformation. However, dominant international digital literacy frameworks remain characterized by “context blindness” and “power unconsciousness,” leading to a profound crisis of adaptability in their application within the Global South.…

This study aimed to investigate the application status of initial inhalation therapy recommendations in patients with COPD and determine whether adherence to the GOLD …
Impact of intensive health education on influenza vaccination and acute exacerbations in outpatients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Background: The influenza vaccination rate of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients in China was very low. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of clinician-led intensive health education on influenza vaccination in outpatients with COPD and the effect of influenza vaccination on the risk of acute exacerbations in the real world. Methods: Participants were from the Real World Research of Diagnosis and Treatment of COPD s…
The Premature Infants’ Gut Microbiota Assembly and Neurodevelopment (Pigman) Cohort Study
Advanced analytical approaches incorporating causal inference methodologies will be implemented to identify significant microbial and metabolic biomarkers associated with neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm neonates, and to establish causal pathways between these biomarkers and neurodevelopment. These analytical advancements will facilitate the construction of predictive models that utilize temporal microbial signatures and metabolite trajecto…
Global, regional, and national epidemiology of ischemic heart disease among individuals aged 55 and above from 1990 to 2021
This study reveals that in high SDI regions, the incidence, mortality, and DALYs rate of IHD are declining. Conversely, in low to middle SDI regions, the disease burden of IHD is increasing. It highlights global inequality in IHD burden. Recommendations include early screening, risk management, and strengthening primary care, especially in middle and low SDI regions. Countries should also invest in environmental governance and air pollution contr…

Exploring public opinion on health effects of prepared dishes in China through social media comments
Introduction: In the 2020s, particularly following 2022, the Chinese government introduced a series of initiatives to foster the development of the prepared dishes sector, accompanied by substantial investments from industrial capital. Consequently, China's prepared dishes industry has experienced rapid growth. Nevertheless, this swift expansion has elicited varied public opinions, particularly concerning the potential health effects of prepared …
Development and validation of a nomogram model for mortality prediction in stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the third leading cause of death worldwide. There is no nomogram model available for mortality prediction of stable COPD. We intended to develop and validate a nomogram model to predict mortality risk in stable COPD patients for personalised prognostic assessment. Methods: A prospective observational study was made of COPD outpatients registered in the RealDTC study between December 2016…

The gut microbiota and post-traumatic major depression disorder
Our findings provide a cause-and-effect relationship between the gut microbiota and PTMDD, contributing to our understanding of the microbiota-gut-brain axis and its role in neuropsychiatric disorder development after trauma. This information provides an opportunity for new treatment and prevention methods which are aimed at the gut-brain interaction
Topology Identification of Weighted Networks Via Binary Time Series From Propagation Dynamics
This study focuses on a topology identification problem of weighted networks with different connection strength, where binary time series generated by propagation dynamics are utilized. An influence probability matrix reflecting the weight of connection is proposed to quantify the influence of other nodes on one node as it transfers from susceptible state to infected state. Further, maximum likelihood estimate and expectation–maximization algorit…
Clinical characteristics and risk of all-cause mortality in low education patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in the Chinese population
Background: Education levels play a critical role in the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which mainly affects the elderly, who generally have a low level of education in China. We aimed to investigate the association between education level and COPD clinical characteristics and outcomes, especially the effects of education level on the all-cause mortality of COPD in the Chinese population. Methods: We retrieved data c…
Rule of Law, Happiness, and Human Health
Human health is an important concern that gradually exists in sustainable development goals. The key aim of this study is to examine the impacts of the rule of law on happiness and health using a time series data of China over the data period 1998–2020. The empirical analysis utilizes the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) method to find out the short and long-run effects. Findings reveal that the rule of law stimulates happiness and human hea…
A nexus between the rule of law, green innovation, growth and sustainable environment in top Asian countries

For this, researchers and practitioners have always strived for viable solutions that are not just efficient in terms of their productivity, but are also innovative in nature, so that they have the least possible repercussions to the ecological wellbeing. Therefore, the present study aims to explore the relevancy of the rule of law and green innovation, …
Clinical Efficacy of Infantile Massage in the Treatment of Infant Functional Constipation
Background: Functional constipation in children is a common disease that causes a psychological burden on infants and young children across the world. It will greatly affect infant quality of life in early childhood and even affect their psychological and physical health. At present, infant functional constipation is treated with western drugs alone, but this can produce drug dependency. In recent years, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) infant …

Algal bloom in a melt pond on Canada Basin pack ice
Melt ponds are common on the surface of ice floes in the Arctic Ocean during spring and summer. Few studies on melt pond algae communities have been accomplished. These studies have shown that these melt ponds were ultra-oligotrophic, and contribute little to overall productivity. However, during the 6th Chinese Arctic Cruise in the Arctic Ocean in summer 2014, a closed coloured melt pond with a chlorophyll a concentration of 15.32 μg/L was obser…
Professional Reform and the Introduction of Foreign Coaches in Chinese Football since 1992
Since 1992, the Chinese Football Association has introduced seven foreign coaches to guide the Chinese men’s football team, meanwhile launching the Chinese A League in 1994. Not only has the expected improvement and development of football in China fail to materialize, but the national team’s performance and its world ranking have declined. The ‘official oriented’ management system and incomplete professional reform of Chinese football weakened t…
