Multi-echelon reverse logistics network design in the context of circular economy: A Hong Kong case study
The management of construction and demolition waste (CDW) is emerging as a significant global challenge. Traditional methods such as direct landfill and incineration fail to handle the vast amount of CDW properly, resulting in serious social and environmental issues. In this context, the construction industry has increasingly recognized the importance of CDW recycling and recovery. Consequently, construction industry leaders are advocating for de…
The COPD risk associated with adulthood weight change and early adulthood BMI: A prospective cohort study
Gaps concerning general adiposity and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are delaying policies for weight interventions in COPD prevention, especially adiposity in early adulthood and weight changes during adulthood. Based on the China Kadoorie Biobank, a prospective cohort between 2004–2008 covering 5 urban and 5 rural areas, we included 138,764 males and 194,159 females aged 35 ~ 70 years. Weight change was defined as the difference b…
Improved Method of Background Value Determination for Sb and Cd in Freshwater Sediment—Insights from Controlling Factors on Spatial Variability
Variability in the distribution of natural total Sb and Cd in freshwater sediments leads to difficulties in background value (BV) determination. This study aimed to establish a method to determine BV more accurately by investigating the vertical distribution of Sb and Cd in sediment cores collected from a typical river in alluvial plain in China and revealed the factors that control the variation of Sb and Cd BV, which has not been studied in all…
Joint Hidden Markov Model for Longitudinal and Time-to-Event Data with Latent Variables
This study develops a new joint modeling approach to simultaneously analyze longitudinal and time-to-event data with latent variables. The proposed model consists of three components. The first component is a hidden Markov model for investigating a longitudinal observation process and its underlying transition process as well as their potential risk factors and dynamic heterogeneity. The second component is a factor analysis model for characteriz…
Ginkgo biloba L. extract prevents steroid-induced necrosis of the femoral head by rescuing apoptosis and dysfunction in vascular endothelial cells via the PI3K/AKT/eNOS pathway
Bayesian Diagnostics of Hidden Markov Structural Equation Models with Missing Data
Cocaine is a type of drug that functions to increase the availability of the neurotransmitter dopamine in the brain. However, cocaine dependence or abuse is highly related to an increased risk of psychiatric disorders and deficits in cognitive performance, attention, and decision-making abilities. Given the chronic and persistent features of drug addiction, the progression of abstaining from cocaine often evolves across several states, such as ad…
