Background: Survival after head and neck cancer treatment has improved, shifting attention toward survivorship quality and post-treatment service gaps. Evidence from China that quantifies unmet supportive care needs using standardized instruments across multiple regions remains limited. Methods: We conducted a multicenter cross-sectional study in three tertiary hospitals in East, Middle, and Southwest China. Adults with histologically confirmed h…
Effects of digital health interventions on objectively measured physical activity during the perinatal period: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Objectives Insufficient physical activity is prevalent among perinatal women, and digital health interventions offer a promising avenue to promote engagement in physical activity within this population. However, previous studies have relied heavily on self-reported data, lacking a systematic synthesis based on objective measurements. This study aims to systematically evaluate the effects of digital health interventions on objectively measured phy…
Uncovering the Effects of Long‐Term Different Cropping Regimes on N 2 O Emissions and Related Drivers in Black Soil
Agricultural soils significantly contribute to global nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions. Different cropping regimes alter soil properties and microbial communities, influencing N 2 O emissions under nitrogen fertilization. However, the underlying mechanisms in black soil are unclear. We conducted a microcosm experiment using black soil subjected to 15 years of different cropping regimes: farmland fallow with no anthropogenic intervention (FALL), ma…
Windows of susceptibility to fine particulate matter components for fetal birth weight: A birth cohort study
The effects of prenatal exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) on fetal birth weight (FBW) results have been inconsistent, and the crucial components of PM2.5 may be responsible for these harmful effects. We aimed to explore the effects of prenatal exposure to PM2.5 components on FBW and determine the pregnancy susceptible exposure windows for PM2.5 components. We analyzed data from a birth cohort of 10,164 mother-infant pairs in Hefei, Chin…

Measurement of the operational efficiency of tertiary public hospitals in Western China: Evidence from Guangxi from 2019 to 2022
Objective: The continuous increase in health care costs and the growing demand for health services among residents make it an urgent priority to improve the operational efficiency of the health system in Chinese society. In this study, data on the operational efficiency of tertiary public hospitals in Guangxi were analyzed to identify issues in hospital management within the context of performance assessment, which thereby enhanced the social ser…
High social support is associated with reduced cardiac events in patients following ICD/CRT-D implantation: A one-year follow-up study in China
Few studies exist on the impact of social support on cardiac events following implantation of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) or cardiac resynchronization therapy devices with defibrillators (CRT-D). This study aims to investigate the longitudinal association between social support and adverse cardiac events among ICD/CRT-D recipients during a 1-year follow-up. This hospital-based longitudinal study included 101 patients undergoing …
Exercise addiction in college students: The impact of body dissatisfaction, stress, physical activity and gender
College students confront risks in relation to exercise addiction. High stress levels and body dissatisfaction may be important causes of exercise addiction. The male students had higher body dissatisfaction, stress levels, and risk of exercise addiction than the female students. With a change in female bodily aesthetics in terms of a shift from a primary focus on thinness-related beauty to having a thin and toned body, the risk of exercise addic…
Low-dose intravenous esketamine on a depressive catatonia patient with venous thromboembolism: A case report
As a safe and rapid intervention, Esketamine might be a new option for catatonic patients who cannot undergo MECT or fail to respond to conventional treatment. It may be worthy of further research in the future
Global, regional, and national incidence and mortality for enteric infections from 1990 to 2019
The global incidence of enteric infections did not change significantly between 1990 and 2019, but the mortality showed a significantly downward trend. The global burden of enteric infections remains serious in children under 5 years and in low and low-middle SDI regions
Comparative Study on the Satisfaction of Healthcare Service Providers with the Synergistic Development of Rural Healthcare Systems in China: Medical Alliance Counties vs. Non-Medical Alliance Counties
To facilitate the establishment of county medical alliances, managers of leading county-level hospitals should adopt a healthcare system integration strategy. This strategy involves evolution from being a member of a single institution to a coordinator of cross-institutional vertical integration of medical and healthcare services. Additionally, revamping remuneration and appraisal systems for members of county medical alliances is necessary. This…
Becoming a Self-reliant Elder: Fading Intergenerational Reciprocity and Pursuing Active Aging among Middle-class Seniors in Urban China
The aging population is China's most daunting challenge of the coming decades and has brought about profound consequences for Chinese society. Drawing upon the ethnographic work conducted in Guangzhou city from 2020 to 2023, the present study aims to show some most recent development regarding intergenerational reciprocity among older adults' aging experience in urban China. The ethnographic accounts reveal the emergence of a concept termed "self…
Urban Feng-Shui and its Impact on the Spatial Structures of Places and Psychological Well-being of People
Since ancient times, sacred power beliefs have been an element of human culture.The beliefs in prayers and vows stem from the people's desire for stability and spiritual dependency, as well as from those passed down from generation to generation.These are frequently based on numerous legends relating to the locations.This article examines the belief in making a pledge to Ai Khai of Wat Chedi in Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, Thailand, with a stucc…
Make them mature properly”: Protective restriction of children from the adult world in China's suburban schools
The protective restriction of children moving into adulthood has attracted growing attention among the public and experts. This article ethnographically explores how China's suburban teachers practice a selective restriction to help children mature properly. It demonstrates that while educators work to mitigate students' concrete contact with the adult environments, they also inculcate students with the harsh realities of the adult world. It cont…
No! I Can't: Noise and silence as everyday resistance at a Chinese suburban middle school
Student resistance is one of the central themes in the study of schooling and inequality. This article used sound as a means of inquiry to investigate how China's suburban teenagers-a segment largely overlooked in prior scholarly writing-resist the school values amid the exaltation of success and widening stratification in contemporary Chinese society. Drawing on fieldwork in a suburban middle school in Northwest China, I demonstrated that studen…

Creating an ethos for learning: Classroom seating and pedagogical use of space at a Chinese suburban middle school
The classroom is a crucial, everyday element of children's geographies with important socio-spatial characteristics that demand scholarly attention. This study ethnographically investigates the production of meanings in the classroom space through seating. Building on the conceptual framework of spatial dialectic (Lefebvre, H. 1991. The Production of Space. Translated by Donald Nicholson-Smith. Oxford: Blackwell), it theorizes that classroom spac…
