Quality of life among healthcare workers in the hospitals and primary healthcare centers in Gaza Strip: A cross-sectional study
This study found that HCWs in Gaza Strip exhibited moderate levels of QoL. Age, smoking status, workplace, and work shifts were associated with overall QoL. Strategies to improve HCWs' QoL, such as lifestyle interventions, additional support through training or educational programs, and reducing work schedules, could be considered under high-pressure situations
Number sense‐arithmetic link in Grade 1 and Grade 2: A case of fluency
BACKGROUND: Recent research suggested fluent processing as an explanation on why number sense contributes to simple arithmetic tasks-'Fluency hypothesis'. AIMS: The current study investigates whether number sense contributes to such arithmetic tasks when other cognitive factors are controlled for (including those that mediate the link); and whether this contribution varies as a function of participants' individual maths fluency levels. SAMPLE: Fo…
Prevalence of overweight, obesity, and associated factors among healthcare workers in the Gaza Strip, Palestine: A cross-sectional study
Background Overweight and obesity are multifactorial conditions that are prevalent in developing and developed countries. They are emerging as a significant public health concern among healthcare workers (HCWs). We aimed to estimate the prevalence of overweight and obesity and their associated factors among HCWs in the Gaza Strip. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted to recruit 1,850 HCWs aged 22 years and older. Interviews were carried …

Dietary Habits of Patients with Coronary Artery Disease: A Case-Control Study from Pakistan
Diet is a risk factor for coronary artery disease and can be adjusted to reduce the risk of CAD. A key finding is that consumption of chicken, beef, eggs and junk food are associated with a high risk of CAD whereas consumption of ghee is not associated with the risk of CAD
Can abacus course eradicate developmental dyscalculia
Developmental dyscalculia (DD) is a specific mathematical learning disability, with a prevalence of around 3%–7% in the school‐aged population. It negatively affects individuals, and even the national, development. Previous DD‐intervention programs usually targeted on numerosity, number, simple arithmetic, or even general cognitive ability. The current study investigated the effect that a long‐term (2–3 years) abacus course had on the prevalence …
The Mediating Effect of Regulatory Emotional Self-Efficacy on the Association between Self-Esteem and School Bullying in Middle School Students: A Cross-Sectional Study
School bullying is negatively associated with self-esteem, but psychological mediators of bullying have yet to be clarified. We examined regulatory emotional self-efficacy (RESE) as a possible mediator in the association between self-esteem and school bullying. A cross-sectional study of 995 adolescents was conducted in two middle schools of Xi'an. All of the participants completed the Chinese version of the School Bullying Experience Questionnai…
Seroprevalence of Measles Antibodies and Predictors for Seropositivity among Chinese Children
Background : Supplementary measles immunization has been implemented since 2010 throughout China, yet few studies have reported its effect in the northwest regions. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among children aged 2 to 4 years old ( n = 755) from February to September 2014 in 25 towns of Qian County, Shaanxi Province. Blood samples were analyzed for measles antibodies using enzyme-linked immunosorbent immunoglobulin G (IgG) assa…
Correlates of Insufficient Physical Activity among Junior High School Students: A Cross-Sectional Study in Xi’an, China
IPA appears to be a considerable problem in this sample of Chinese youth. Effective interventions to increase physical activity are needed and may include improving family support level for physical activity, especially for girls, the obese and those with high SES
