Associations of socioeconomic status with dietary macronutrient composition and sustainability in Australia
Why Chinese farmers are reluctant to transfer their land in the context of non-agricultural employment
Using a panel dataset of 24,527 farming households from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) for the years 2014–2020, this study employed the fixed-effects, mediation-effect, and two-stage least squares (2SLS) models to explore why in the context of non-agricultural employment Chinese farmers are reluctant to lease out their land from an agricultural mechanization perspective. The analysis yielded several significant findings. First, participati…
Modeling healthcare resource dynamics and its application based on interregional population mobility
Objective: This study aims to assess the impact of inter-regional population mobility on epidemic progression and healthcare resource congestion during acute infectious disease outbreaks, providing a scientific basis for population control and healthcare resource allocation during pandemics. Methods: Using the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic as a case study, we selected two city pairs-"Taiyuan-Jinzhong" and "Linfen-Yuncheng" as research subjects. Based on re…
Impact of the “Class B infectious disease Class B management” policy on the number of cases and deaths of notifiable infectious diseases in China during the Covid-19 epidemic
If China or other regions relax their prevention and control measures against coronavirus infectious diseases similar to SARS in the future, health authorities should, on the one hand, remain vigilant immediately to prevent a sudden increase in the number of cases of airborne and insect-borne infectious diseases, and on the other hand, maintain long term close monitoring of the trend of cases of blood-borne and sexual infectious diseases. This is…
Trends in Alcohol Use Before and During the Covid-19 Pandemic Among Women Living With and Without HIV in the United States (2017–2022)
Data on alcohol use trends in women living with HIV (WLWH) are lacking. We examine data collected before and across the COVID-19 pandemic (2014-2022) in WLWH and socio-demographically similar women living without HIV (WLWOH)(n = 1564; 67% WLWH) who self-reported alcohol use to establish and compare trends. Women were categorized into baseline groups based on use pattern from 10/2014 to 09/2017: abstinence (no alcohol at any visit), non-heavy drin…

Assessing the impact of vaccination and medical resource allocation on infectious disease outbreak management
Introduction: Amidst an emerging infectious disease outbreak, the rational allocation of vaccines and medical resources is crucial for controlling the epidemic's progression. Method: dynamics model to assess the impact of COVID-19 vaccination and resource allocation on epidemic trends. Results: Vaccination significantly reduces infection rates, hospitalisations, and severe cases, while also curtailing strain on medical resources by reducing conge…
Social participation of migrant population under the background of social integration in China — Based on group identity and social exclusion perspectives
Epidemiological characteristics and transmission dynamics of the Covid-19 outbreak in Hohhot, China
Background On September 28, 2022, the first case of Omicron subvariant BF.7 was discovered among coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infections in Hohhot, China, and then the epidemic broke out on a large scale during the National Day holiday. It is imminently necessary to construct a mathematical model to investigate the transmission dynamics of COVID-19 in Hohhot. Methods In this study, we first investigated the epidemiological characteristics …
Predicting the transmission dynamics of novel coronavirus infection in Shanxi province after the implementation of the “Class B infectious disease Class B management” policy
Background China managed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with measures against Class B infectious diseases, instead of Class A infectious diseases, in a major shift of its epidemic response policies. We aimed to generate robust information on the transmission dynamics of novel coronavirus infection in Shanxi, a province located in northern China, after the implementation of the “Class B infectious disease Class B management” policy. Methods W…
Academic association through overseas visits
Studies of Chinese (visiting) international doctoral students typically focus on how students are socialized into the Western academy. Not only does the literature reinforce Western institutions as ‘the academic centre’, but it also conjures a unidirectional image of academic learning and knowledge transfer from the West to the rest of the world. This paper complexifies these images by proposing academic association as an alternative image to und…
Model-based analysis of the incidence trends and transmission dynamics of Covid-19 associated with the Omicron variant in representative cities in China
The LSTM model has great potential for predicting the prevalence of Omicron outbreaks, whereas the SEAIQRD model is highly effective in revealing their internal transmission mechanisms. We recommended the use of joint interventions to contain the spread of the virus
The Effect of Non-Cognitive Ability on Farmer’s Ecological Protection of Farmland
Ecological protection of farmland is an important means to reduce agricultural non-point source pollution and improve the quality of agricultural products. As the main body of current agricultural production and operation, the aging labor force has insufficient cognitive ability and low ability to learn actively, which is not conducive to transforming the green output. However, non-cognitive abilities closely related to the acquired environment c…

Association between limited English proficiency and understanding prescription labels among five ethnic groups in California
Limited English blocked prescription understanding for all groups except Vietnamese. Translated prescription labels and interpreted in-person pharmacy consultations are indicated. Education and ethnicity affected prescription understanding; prescription instructions must be compatible with patients' educational level and culture. Bilingual/bicultural providers and interpreters can help bridge linguistic/cultural gaps but efforts should be made to…
Strategies to improve minority access to public mental health services in California
The present study documented and evaluated steps taken by public mental health administrators to recruit members of underrepresented ethnic minority populations into treatment. By surveying county‐level ethnic program specialists in the decentralized California state system, the study identified strategies considered effective for reaching African American, Asian American, Latino, and Native Americans communities and overcoming barriers to treatm…
