  • Effect of BPM music on post-exercise heart rate variability in male collegiate sprinters

    Open Access•Bao Chen, Chen Bao et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Sports and Active…•2026

    Background Sudden cardiac death (SCD) during or immediately after intense exercise remains a major concern in sports medicine. Heart rate variability (HRV) is a key indicator of autonomic regulation, and music tempo may influence post-exercise autonomic recovery. This study investigated the effects of different music tempo conditions, expressed as beats per minute (BPM), on heart rate (HR) and HRV recovery in collegiate sprinters following high-i…

  • AI-assisted academic writing in medical postgraduate education

    Open Access•Yinpeng Ren, Ran Gao et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Medical Education•2026

    Second language (L2) academic writing has become increasingly critical for postgraduate students in non-English speaking contexts, particularly in specialized disciplines such as medicine. However, medical postgraduates often struggle with linguistic challenges, emotional barriers, and limited instructional support. With the rise of AI-based writing tools such as ChatGPT and Grammarly, new opportunities have emerged for supporting these learners—…

  • Assessing Spatiotemporal Characteristics, Health Impacts and Related Economic Losses of PM2.5, PM10 and O3 in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region from 2015 to 2020

    Open Access•Ran Gao, Qin Li et al.•ARTICLE•Environment Development and…•2025

  • Wighteone, a prenylated flavonoid from licorice, inhibits growth of SW480 colorectal cancer cells by allosteric inhibition of Akt

  • Prevalence and Associated Factors of Falls among Older Adults between Urban and Rural Areas of Shantou City, China

    Open Access•Xiaodong Chen, Zeting Lin et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021

    Older adults have a higher rate of falling in Shantou City, compared to the average rate in China. There are similarities and differences in the associated factors of falls among older adults between urban and rural areas of Shantou City. Targeted interventions for older adults in different regions may be more effective in reducing the risk of falls

  • Opportunities and Challenges for Construction Health and Safety Technologies under the Covid-19 Pandemic in Chinese Construction Projects

    Open Access•Yang Yang, Albert P C Chan et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021

    The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has resulted in significant delays and cost overrun in construction projects. The implementation of health and safety (H&S) technologies is one of the most important strategies to alleviate the adverse impacts of COVID-19 on the construction industry and help the industry adapt to the new normal. This study aims to evaluate the adoption of H&S technologies for pandemic management in the constructio…

  • Parent-Based Intervention to Improve Child Restraint Use Among Kindergarteners in China

    Huiqian Lei, Ran Gao et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Public Health•2018•Cited by: 1•References: 11

    Objectives. To evaluate the effectiveness of parent-based child restraint system (CRS) education and hands-on CRS installation training. Methods. We conducted a randomized trial with cluster sampling from May 2016 to January 2017 in 6 selected kindergarten classes in Shantou and Chaozhou, China. Parents were randomly assigned to receive 1 of the 3 study conditions: CRS education only, CRS education plus hands-on CRS installation training, or cont…

  • Modeling the Relationship between Safety Climate and Safety Performance in a Developing Construction Industry

    Open Access•Hafız Zahoor, Albert P C Chan et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2017

    This study attempts to validate a safety performance (SP) measurement model in the cross-cultural setting of a developing country. In addition, it highlights the variations in investigating the relationship between safety climate (SC) factors and SP indicators. The data were collected from forty under-construction multi-storey building projects in Pakistan. Based on the results of exploratory factor analysis, a SP measurement model was hypothesiz…

  • Age-differentiated impact of land appropriation and resettlement on landless farmers

    Open Access•Weiming Tong, Pingyu Zhang et al.•ARTICLE•Geographical Research•2017•Cited by: 8•References: 43

    Land appropriation and subsequent resettlement of rural inhabitants are central to urbanisation in China. Often, the result is the impoverishment of landless farmers, who are a principal source of social unrest in the country. In the literature, landless farmers are often wrongly assumed to be a homogeneous group. In contrast, this paper presents the age-differentiated experiences of land appropriation and resettlement among farmers. Using the ca…

  • Multilevel Safety Climate and Safety Performance in the Construction Industry

    Open Access•Ran Gao, Albert P C Chan et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2016

    The character of construction projects exposes front-line workers to dangers and accidents. Safety climate has been confirmed to be a predictor of safety performance in the construction industry. This study aims to explore the underlying mechanisms of the relationship between multilevel safety climate and safety performance. An integrated model was developed to study how particular safety climate factors of one level affect those of other levels,…
