  • Impact of socioeconomic status and lifestyle factors on incidence of COPD and hospital readmissions

    Open AccessXiaohan Xu, Xiao-Han Xu et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2026

    Socioeconomic status and lifestyle conferred an impact on the incidence or first re-admission of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but the impact on recurrent re-admissions for COPD remains unclear. We aimed to simultaneously study their impacts on first hospital admission and re-admissions for COPD in a large prospective cohort study. We included 439,463 participants without COPD at baseline from the UK Biobank and identified subsequ…

  • Effectiveness of the National Immunisation Programme and the catch-up vaccination on the incidence of hepatitis B in China

    Open AccessBo-Wen Ming, J Zhang et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2025

    INTRODUCTION: In 2002, hepatitis B vaccines were incorporated into China's National Immunisation Programme (NIP). In 2009, the catch-up vaccination was introduced for children born between 1994 and 2001. Sustained impacts of the NIP, particularly the catch-up vaccination, remain unclear. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the NIP and catch-up vaccination on the incidence of hepatitis B in China. METHODS: We collected monthly reported hepat…

  • Effectiveness of catch-up vaccination from 2009 to 2011 on incidence of hepatitis B in Guangzhou, China

    Open AccessBo-Wen Ming, Wenhui Liu et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    The massive catch-up vaccination against hepatitis B among children plays an important role in alleviating the burden of hepatitis B

  • New Ideas in Narrative Practice for Mind and Body Healing

    Open AccessRen Liu, Xiaocong Zhang et al.ARTICLEChinese Medicine and Culture2024

    To enrich the specific methods of narrative clinical practice in Chinese medicine and stimulate the innovation of narrative medicine practice in China, we advise that medical professionals should integrate theories and treatments related to acupuncture, massage and positive psychology into their narrative medicine practice, taking into account the current state of clinical practice of acupuncturists and the importance of positive emotions in the …

  • Rising trend and regional disparities of the global burden of disease attributable to ambient low temperature, 1990-2019

    Open AccessJiangdong Liu, Mengmeng Li et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2024

    Background: Previous studies on the effect of global warming on the global burden of disease have mainly focussed on the impact of high temperatures, thereby providing limited evidence of the effect of lower temperatures. Methods: We adopted a three-stage analysis approach using data from the Global Burden of Disease 2019 study. First, we explored the global burden of disease attributable to low temperatures, examining variations by gender, age, …

  • Effects of meteorological factors on influenza transmissibility by virus type/subtype

    Open AccessZe-Lin Yan, Wenhui Liu et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2024

    Temperature variability has an impact on influenza transmissibility. Ambient temperature, temperature variability, and humidity influence the transmissibility of different influenza types/subtypes discrepantly. Our findings have important implications for improving preparedness for influenza epidemics, especially under climate change conditions

  • The use of generalized synthetic control method to evaluate air pollution control measures of G20 Hangzhou Summit

    Open AccessHao‐Neng Huang, Hao-Neng Huang et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    The traditional campaign-style enforcement in environmental governance has been debated whether its rebound effect is likely to eat away the short-term environmental benefits and subsequently bring about severer pollution. There are methodological challenges in assessing the effect of temporary environmental intervention. By applying the generalized synthetic control method (GSCM), we quantified and characterized the effectiveness of environmenta…

  • Time-varying effect of drunk driving regulations on road traffic mortality in Guangzhou, China

    Open AccessXiaohan Xu, Xiao-Han Xu et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    These findings would provide important implications for the development of integrated intervention measures in China and other countries attempting to reduce traffic fatalities by stricter regulations on drunk driving

  • Comorbidity and its impact on 1590 patients with Covid-19 in China

    Open AccessWei-jie Guan, Wei‐jie Guan et al.ARTICLEEuropean Respiratory Journal2020

    BACKGROUND: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak is evolving rapidly worldwide. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the risk of serious adverse outcomes in patients with COVID-19 by stratifying the comorbidity status. METHODS: We analysed data from 1590 laboratory confirmed hospitalised patients from 575 hospitals in 31 provinces/autonomous regions/provincial municipalities across mainland China between 11 December 2019 and 31 January 2020. We ana…

  • The impact of cold spells on mortality from a wide spectrum of diseases in Guangzhou, China

    Open AccessJinjian Chen, Hang Dong et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2020

    Cold spells have been associated with mortality from a few broad categories of diseases or specific diseases. However, there is a lack of data about the health effects of cold spells on mortality from a wide spectrum of plausible diseases which can reveal a more comprehensive contour of the mortality burden of cold spells. We collected daily mortality data in Guangzhou during 2010–2018 from the Guangzhou Center for Disease Control and Prevention.…

  • The modifying effects of heat and cold wave characteristics on cardiovascular mortality in 31 major Chinese cities

    Open AccessJinjian Chen, Maigeng Zhou et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2020

    Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death globally. Examining the relationship between the extreme temperature events (e.g. heat and cold waves) and cardiovascular mortality has profound public significance. However, this evidence is scarce, particularly those from China. We collected daily data on cardiovascular mortality and meteorological conditions from 31 major Chinese cities during the maximum period of 2007–2013. A two-stage…

  • Trends and seasonality in cause-specific mortality among children under 15 years in Guangzhou, China, 2008–2018

    Open AccessXiaohan Xu, Xiao-Han Xu et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2020

    Guangzhou has made considerable progress in reducing mortality over the last decade. The findings of characteristics of children mortality would provide important information for the development and implementation of integrated interventions targeted specific age groups and causes of death

  • Prevalence and Occupational and Environmental Risk Factors of Self-Reported Asthma

    Open AccessQing‐Ling Fu, Yue Du et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2016

    Asthma is a serious public health problem in China. Our study provides important updated information on the prevalence of asthma and its associated risk factors, which may help us better understand the epidemiology of asthma and prevent this disorder

  • Dietary habits and the short-term effects of air pollution on mortality in the Chinese population in Hong Kong

    Chun-Quan Ou, Chun‐Quan Ou et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2012References: 35

    BACKGROUND: Both diet and air pollution are associated with mortality risks. However, no epidemiological study has examined the potential interaction between diet and air pollution on mortality. We assessed their interaction on an additive scale. METHODS: We analysed the data on daily concentrations of ambient air pollutants (PM(10), NO(2), SO(2) and O(3)) and a total of 23 484 deaths in 1998 in Hong Kong. A standardised questionnaire was used in…
