Development and validation of a game-based assessment tool for abstraction skills in lower primary students
Developed a game-based assessment tool with a principled approach for evaluating abstraction skills in lower primary students. • Validated the tool with expert review, cognitive interview, and field tests. • Found significant gender differences in abstraction skills, offering insights into gender dynamics in early CT education. • Provided insights for tailored educational approaches by identifying diverse problem-solving strategies among students…
Evaluating TikTok and YouTube as patient-education resources on kidney transplantation
Objective This study evaluated and compared the quality and educational value of kidney transplantation-related videos on TikTok and YouTube. Methods A structured search identified 151 eligible videos. Each video was assessed using DISCERN, PEMAT-A/V (understandability and actionability), and the Global Quality Scale (GQS). Content completeness was examined across six key educational domains. Correlation analyses were conducted to determine assoc…

Optimizing spatial accessibility and equity of hierarchical older adult care facilities using a multi-modal two-step floating catchment area method
The global aging trend is becoming increasingly pronounced, and the accessibility and equity of older adult care facilities directly influence the health and quality of life of the older adult population, thus representing a critical issue in public health research and policy-making. Using Lin'an District, Hangzhou as an illustrative case, this research examines urban-rural integrated areas specifically, addressing the persistent challenge of sup…
Challenges for EFL Teachers in Designing Communication Activities
This study examined the challenges faced by 19 Chinese senior high school English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers in designing communication activities. By closely examining the design features of the teaching activities employed in their classrooms, it was revealed that the majority of the observed activities lacked authenticity, a crucial aspect emphasized in the extant literature on communication practices. This significant finding unders…
A study on the characteristics of Songyang Duanwu tea, a classic traditional knowledge of Southwest Zhejiang, China
Duanwu Tea is a popular and ancient biodiversity-related traditional knowledge in Songyang, China. It has the remarkable function of dispelling dampness and relieving summer heat. However, systematic research on Duanwu Tea has been limited, and its biodiversity characteristics remain relatively unknown beyond the borders of Songyang. This study aims to investigate the bio-resources involved in making Duanwu Tea and its correlation with local geog…
Machine Learning Algorithms for the Diagnosis of Class III Malocclusions in Children
Our findings suggest that ML models based on cephalometric data could effectively assist dentists to classify dental, functional and skeletal Class III malocclusions in children. In addition, features such as SN_GoMe, U1_NA and Overjet can as important indicators for predicting the severity of Class III malocclusions
The combined association of physical activity and alcohol use with long-term mortality
In both age groups, combining sedentary lifestyle with even minimal AU was a risk factor for death. In young group, combining any level of PA with high volume AU was associated with increased mortality. In old group, combining moderate-to-vigorous PA with low volume AU was related to reduced mortality
The Pedagogy of Waiting
This paper is rooted in my investigation of the artistic processes and practices of artists with disabilities through field observations at Creative Growth Art Center in Oakland, California. Through this investigation, I develop the concept of a pedagogy of waiting, which allows for a consideration of embodied differences. This pedagogy of waiting is conceptualized by and with 1) the everyday artistic processes and practices of artists at Creativ…
SPACs
Special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) originated in the 1980s. A SPAC is a shell company formed by a sponsor to raise capital through a SPAC IPO to acquire or merge with an existing (target) private company. In a SPAC IPO, the units issued, consisting of (1) shares of common stock and (2) warrants, are typically priced at a nominal $10. Until 2022, SPAC IPOs were an increasingly popular alternative to traditional IPOs. We provide an overv…
A novel therapeutic approach for IPF
By inhibiting proliferation, enhancing phagocytosis, inhibiting the formation of Bcl-2 complex, and inhibiting the high expression of MYD88-dependent TLR4 signaling pathway, ZKMG can regulate the balance of AMs "autophagy - apoptosis" in the alveolitis stage to retard the fibrosis process partly. With a comprehensive strategy of "target prediction - experimental verification", we have demonstrated that inhibiting the apoptosis and promoting autop…
Application of network composite module analysis and verification to explore the bidirectional immunomodulatory effect of Zukamu granules on Th1 / Th2 cytokines in lung injury
The network composite module analysis and verification method is an exploration to study the immune regulation mechanism of TCM by combining the network module prediction analysis with animal experiments, which provides a reference for subsequent research
Improvement in Fine Manual Dexterity in Children with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2 after Nusinersen Injection
Although nusinersen has been demonstrated to improve motor function in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), no studies have investigated its effect on fine manual dexterity. The present study aimed to investigate the ability of nusinersen to improve fine manual dexterity in patients with SMA type 2. A total of five patients with SMA type 2 were included. The Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale (expanded version) (HFMSE) and Purdue Pegboard…
DNN-Dp
Deep neural network (DNN) learning has witnessed significant applications in various fields, especially for prediction and classification. Frequently, the data used for training are provided by crowdsourcing workers, and the training process may violate their privacy. A qualified prediction model should protect the data privacy in training and classification/prediction phases. To address this issue, we develop a differential privacy (DP)-enabled …
