Beyond the 150 min target: Rethinking exercise promotion for active health in community-dwelling older adults through inclusive social prescribing
Physical activity guidelines commonly recommend that older adults engage in at least 150–300 min of moderate intensity aerobic activity each week, combined with muscle strengthening and balance training. Although this target is clear, measurable, and useful for public health monitoring, it may be insufficient when directly applied to community-dwelling older adults who are frail, multimorbid, socially isolated, digitally excluded, or constrained …

Estimating the burden of anaemia in women of reproductive age attributable to wildfire-sourced fine particulate matter: A multicentre cross-sectional study in low- and middle-income countries
Climate change has been assumed as a key contributor to global undernutrition. One possible channel is that global warming increases air pollution exposure by causing more and more wildfires. This study examined the effect of wildfire-sourced particulate matter (PM) 2.5 exposure on anaemia in women of reproductive age (WRA), a dominating form of undernutrition across the low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). We collected haemoglobin measureme…
Sustainable Development of Medical Tourism: The Case of Macao
The medical tourism industry in Macao has witnessed significant growth in recent years. This study investigates the influence of pre‐electronic word‐of‐mouth (pre‐eWOM) and the medical tourism index (MTI) on the travel experience, medical service quality, perceived value, and post‐electronic word‐of‐mouth (post‐eWOM) intentions among 600 female medical tourists visiting Macao for HPV vaccine tourism. The results reveal that pre‐eWOM and MTI inter…
Online Tourists' Reviews Analysis as a Teaching–Learning Method in Digital Marketing Education: Exploring the Determinants of China's 5A ‐Class Scenic Spots

Does second‐generation involvement promote family firm environmental investment? The China experience
Family firms not only play an important role in economic growth but should also be held partly responsible for environmental degradation. Employing normative stakeholder theory and analyzing unique Chinese survey data via stepwise regression models, our findings indicate that second‐generation successors did not significantly impact family firms' environmental investment. However, among second‐generation successors, we find that successors with i…

Methods We utilized the WRF-Chem model to sim…
Factors associated with euphoria in a large subset of cases using propofol sedation during gastrointestinal endoscopy
Taken together, propofol may elicit euphoria and potentially contribute to propofol addiction. There are several risk factors for the development of propofol addiction, including dreaming, propofol dose, duration of anesthesia, and etomidate dose. These findings suggest that propofol may have a euphoric effect and may have the potential for drug addiction and abuse

Rejection Sensitivity and the Rejection–Hostility Link in Romantic Relationships
Rejection sensitivity is the disposition to anxiously expect, readily perceive, and intensely react to rejection. In response to perceived social exclusion, highly rejection sensitive people react with increased hostile feelings toward others and are more likely to show reactive aggression than less rejection sensitive people in the same situation. This paper summarizes work on rejection sensitivity that has provided evidence for the link between…
