The impact of social vulnerability on primary vaccine coverage in children with sickle cell disease
Introduction This study examines the relationship between social vulnerability and up-to-date (UTD) primary vaccine coverage among children with sickle cell disease (SCD). Methods This retrospective cohort study included children with SCD born in Georgia between 2008 and 2019, identified through the state newborn screening program. Immunization records were obtained from the state registry, and birth addresses were matched to census tract level S…
The Effect of Home‐ and Community‐Based Eldercare Services on Depression in the Elderly
Objective Aimed to examine the impact of home‐ and community‐based eldercare services on depression in the elderly. Methods Data were obtained from the China Longitudinal Aging Social Survey (CLASS) 2014, 2016, 2018, and 2020, the final sample comprised 33,437 observations. Leveraging a quasi‐natural experimental design based on China’s pilot programs for home‐ and community‐based eldercare services, a quasi‐experimental staggered difference‐in‐d…
Assessing the impact of climate change on entrepreneurship
Climate change is one of the biggest crises facing humanity today, but the existing literature lacks discussion on the impact of climate change on economic development from the perspective of entrepreneurial activities. This study investigates the impact of climate change risks on entrepreneurship, distinguishing between short-term and long-term effects. Using data on firm dynamics, natural disasters, and financial institution presence, we find t…
Developing a model of interactive health literacy among college students majoring in kinesiology
Background: Health literacy among college students majoring in kinesiology is higher than that among students in other majors. However, the structure of interactive health literacy is poorly understood, which may affect overall health literacy. Despite existing research on health literacy, studies targeting college students majoring in kinesiology are scarce, and a gap remains in translating study results into practical strategies. Therefore, thi…
Statistical learning prioritizes abstract over item-specific representations
Statistical learning optimizes limited working memory by abstracting probabilistic associations among specific items. However, the cognitive mechanisms responsible for the working memory representation of abstract and item-specific information remain unclear. This study developed a learning-memory representation paradigm and tested three participant groups across three conditions: control (Experiment 1), item-specific encoding (Experiment 2), and…
The mediating roles of cognitive emotion regulation and resilience in the association between life events and sleep quality among medical students
The study highlights that life events significantly affect medical students' sleep quality both directly and indirectly through mechanisms involving resilience and cognitive emotion regulation. These insights are vital for framing interventions to improve psychological resilience and adaptive emotion regulation strategies, thereby enhancing sleep quality and overall mental health in medical students. This research contributes to a deeper understa…
Healthcare resource allocation and patient choice
Access to quality essential healthcare services is a fundamental right for all residents. However, the unequal allocation of healthcare resources affects patients' accessibility to care, thereby influencing their healthcare choices. Utilizing health insurance administrative data and employing a difference-in-differences (DID) model, this study examines the impact of China's healthcare resource allocation reform on patients' healthcare choices. Th…
Unraveling the complex interplay between statistical learning and working memory in Chinese children with and without dyslexia across different ages
The relation between statistical learning and working memory in children with developmental dyslexia (DD) remains unclear. This study employed a distributional and a conditional statistical learning experiment and a working memory task to examine this relation in 651 Chinese 6- to 12-year-olds with and without DD (NDD = 199, 101 females; NwoDD = 452, 227 females; participated 2014–2019). Results showed working memory positively associated with re…
Relationship between physical activities and mental health in older people
This study conducted a comprehensive, objective, and visual analysis of publications and revealed the status of relevant studies, trending topics, and trends concerning the physical activity and mental health of older people from 2009 to 2023. We hope that this work will help researchers identify new perspectives on potential collaborators, important topics, and research frontiers
The effect of trans-provincial immediate reimbursement for healthcare expenses on inequity in the utilization of healthcare services for migrants
The trans-provincial immediate reimbursement policy has improved the inequity of healthcare services utilization among migrants as a whole; however, within the migrants, inequity still exists. More attention should also be paid to low-income or low-education groups in future policy design
Effectiveness of a home-based, post-discharge early intervention program for very preterm infants in reducing parental stress
This study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (registration number: CTR1900028330). Registration date: December 19, 2019
Using the grounded theory to develop the theoretical model of Chinese school sports coaching competence
Chinese school sport coaching competence model emphasizes the integration of sports and education for student development. It provides both local and national perspectives to enhance the professional development of school sports coaches' community worldwide
Translation and validation of the Chinese ABCD risk questionnaire to evaluate adults’ awareness and knowledge of the risks of cardiovascular diseases
The Chinese version of the ABCD has good reliability and validity, and provides a reliable assessment tool for measuring public health beliefs about the risk of cardiovascular disease, promoting the primary prevention of coronary heart disease
Institutional Design and Incentives for Migrant Workers to Participate in Social Insurance in China
Rural-to-urban migration has increased rapidly in China since the early 1980s, with the number of migrants has reached 376 million by 2020. Despite this sharp trend and the significant contributions that migrants have made to urban development, the migrant workers have had very limited access to the social insurance that the majority of urban workers enjoy. Against the background of the social insurance system adjustment in Chengdu in 2011, this …
Gender differences in health insurance coverage in China
This paper explains the gender gap in health insurance and the reason for the wider gap among older people. Our study indicates that because the UEBMI in China mainly covers people with formal jobs, a lower labor participation rate (even much lower in formal jobs) of women has led to their greater difficulty in obtaining health insurance. Since the older women's greater difficulty in obtaining jobs or susceptibility to lay-offs during the period …
