Effect of loneliness on social exclusion among older adults
Loneliness is a significant issue among older adults. However, few studies have explored the brain mechanisms underlying changes in social behavior related to loneliness among older adults. Therefore, this study aimed to examine how loneliness affects the response towards social exclusion among community-dwelling older people. The sample consisted of 37 older adults who made up the lonely (n = 21) and not-lonely control (n = 16) groups based on t…
Development and validation of a picture-based measure of prosociality
Current measures of prosociality primarily utilize text-based scales that can be susceptible to response bias. To enhance the ecological validity of such measures and provide a more intuitive assessment of prosociality, we developed and validated a picture-based measure of prosociality (PB-Prosocial). Based on a comprehensive model of prosociality, this measure encompasses helping, sharing, and comforting. Each item features a photograph of an in…
Physical activity in relation to risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease among Chinese adults
Physical activity is inversely associated with incident COPD risk in smoking men but not in women or non-smoking men
Forest carbon sink potential in the contiguous United States
Growth models are essential tools for predicting forest carbon sinks, yet existing models are often developed from limited perspectives and rarely account for the impacts of climate change on forest distribution. This study first introduces novel growth models grounded in the concept of accumulation phenomena, providing a new perspective while achieving a balanced integration of model accuracy and complexity. Second, by combining MaxEnt model wit…
The COPD risk associated with adulthood weight change and early adulthood BMI
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…
Mechanism of action of Danlou tablets affecting MAFLD via Keap1-mediated oxeiptosis
Our findings suggest that DLT promotes Triglyceride catabolism and inhibit de novo fatty acid synthesis by affecting the activation of the oxeiptosis pathway, suggesting a potential therapeutic strategy for ameliorating NAFLD
Were there any missing mediators between visual impairment and anxiety symptoms? Results from Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey
Introduction: Visual impairment, encompassing low visual acuity and visual field loss, significantly impacts the older adult population worldwide, leading to increased disability and mortality risks. Recent studies suggest a strong association between visual impairment and anxiety, particularly among older adults. This study aims to explore the relationship between visual impairment and anxiety symptoms in older adult individuals in China, and to…
The cost-effectiveness of syphilis screening in pregnant women
Introduction: The cost-effectiveness study of syphilis screening in pregnant women has not been synthesized. This study aimed to synthesize the economic evidence on the cost-effectiveness of syphilis screening in pregnant women that might contribute to making recommendations on the future direction of syphilis screening approaches. Methods: We systematically searched MEDLINE, PubMed, and Web of Science databases for relevant studies published bef…
Unravelling the complex interplay of cuproptosis, lncRNAs, and immune infiltration in Alzheimer’s disease
This research offers insights into the potential mechanisms and roles of CRGs, lncRNAs, and immune cells in the development of cuproptosis in AD. The identified CRGs and lncRNAs may serve as potential therapeutic targets for AD, and the nomogram model may assist in early AD diagnosis and subtyping
Stigma and health inequality experienced by ethnic minorities during the Covid-19 pandemic in a Chinese community
Introduction: Ethnic minorities are considered one of the most vulnerable groups during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the explanatory pathway of how their disadvantaged experiences during epidemics are related to the embedded and longstanding stigmas against them and how these embedded stigmas can affect their resilience in disease outbreaks are not well understood. This study investigated the experiences of ethnic minorities in the COVID-19 pa…
Trends, influencing factors and prediction analysis of under-five and maternal mortality rates in China from 1991 to 2020
Introduction: Under-five mortality rate (U5MR) and maternal mortality rate (MMR) are important indicators for evaluating the quality of perinatal health and child health services in a country or region, and are research priorities for promoting maternal and infant safety and maternal and child health. This paper aimed to analysis and predict the trends of U5MR and MMR in China, to explore the impact of social health services and economic factors …
Radiation as the dominant cause of high-temperature extremes on the eastern Tibetan Plateau
Temperature extremes have been related to anomalies in large-scale circulation, but how these alter the surface energy balance is less clear. Here, we attributed high extremes in daytime and nighttime temperatures of the eastern Tibetan Plateau (ETP) to anomalies in the surface energy balance. We find that daytime high-temperature extremes are mainly caused by altered solar radiation, while nighttime ones are controlled by changes in downwelling …
Transient splenial lesion syndrome in bipolar-II disorder
Background Reversible splenial lesion syndrome (RESLES) is a rare neurological condition characterized by temporary abnormalities in the splenium of the corpus callosum, which has been reported in mental disorders. Previous studies on bipolar disorder (BD) primarily focused on aspects such as brain structure and function, neurochemical changes, and genetics. However, there have been no studies reporting the occurrence of this syndrome during hypo…
Perceived stress and depressive symptoms among Chinese college students
Objective: To explore whether biological rhythm disturbance mediates the association between perceived stress and depressive symptoms and to investigate whether ego resilience moderates the mediation model. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out using an online self-report questionnaire distributed to college students from September 2021 to October 2021. Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Perceived Stress Severity (PSS-10), the Bio…
Brain default mode network mediates the association between negative perfectionism and exercise dependence
Estimation and Potential Analysis of Land Population Carrying Capacity in Shanghai Metropolis
It is of great practical significance to understand the current situation of urban land carrying capacity, explore its potential space, and continuously improve the economic adaptability and resilience and population carrying capacity of megacities. Based on the guiding principle of territorial spatial division and the concept of moderate-scale resilient cities, combined with GIS technology, this study aims to divide land spaces into three types …
Types of Community Support Services and Self-Efficacy for Continuous Community Living among Individuals with Disabilities and Caregivers
The findings suggested that financial subsidies for caregivers and center-based services for individuals with disabilities could improve self-efficacy for continuous community living
Wellbeing as an emergent property of social practice
Wellbeing in buildings is often approached by practitioners and researchers as the aggregate result of individual interactions between building occupants and building features. This sum-of-the-parts approach, however, ignores the ways in which broader social (i.e. sense of ownership and belonging) and symbolic (i.e. what it means to be ‘well’ in a specific culture at a particular place and time) components of wellbeing influence occupant experien…
We were actually able to sit down and talk’
The negotiation of parenting arrangements after family separation is complex and emotionally-fraught. Research suggests that Family Dispute Resolution (FDR) Practitioners play a crucial but ambiguous role in managing the complexities of emotion and power imbalances in the FDR process. However, limited research has investigated how parents construct their experiences of FDR and the role of the Practitioner in managing dynamics of power and emotion…
Biases towards water pollution treatment in Chinese rural areas—A field study in villages at Shandong Province of China
Based on field studies in villages in Eastern China Province of Shandong, we identify and highlight two biases from the perspectives of both policy makers and villagers in terms of water management. In specific, policy makers tend to underweight the gravity of water pollution, especially as relative to air pollutions which have been received widespread attention from public. Another layer of bias we report in this paper is villagers’ perception o…
