Different School Reopening Plans on Coronavirus Disease 2019 Case Growth Rates in the School Setting in the United States
BACKGROUND: In fall 2020, all public K-12 schools reopened in broadly 3 learning models. The hybrid model was considered a mid-risk option compared with remote and in-person learning models. The current study assesses school-based coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) spread in the early fall using a national data set. METHODS: We assess COVID-19 case growth rates from August 10 to October 14, 2020 based on a crowdsourcing data set from the Nationa…
Spatial Regression with Multiple Dependent Variables
Simultaneous studies of multiple health conditions over geographic areas can be enhanced by the principal component analysis (PCA). However, the presence of spatial autocorrelation may induce nonlinearity that compromises PCA. This article presents an approach that combines the residual standardization method in PCA with a spatial regression method to account for spatial autocorrelation. It first estimates a multivariate simultaneous autoregressi…
Statewide Stay‐at‐Home Directives on the Spread of Covid‐19 in Metropolitan and Nonmetropolitan Counties in the United States
Facing a dramatic spike of COVID-19 cases in the United States, President Trump issued the 15 Days to Slow the Spread guidelines on March 16 that included a nationwide “stay-at-home” advisory. By March 23, 9 states (CA, CT, IL, LA, NJ, NY, OH, OR, WA) issued stricter statewide shelter-in-place directives, and all 50 states and Washington, DC closed public schools and set restrictions on bars, restaurants, and public gatherings.2 By April 7, only …

UVA Photoirradiation of Oxygenated Benz[a]anthracene and 3-Methylcholanthene - Generation of Singlet Oxygen and Induction of Lipid Peroxidation
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widespread genotoxic environmental pollutants and potentially pose a health risk to humans. Although the biological and toxicological activities, including metabolism, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity, of PAHs have been thoroughly studied, their phototoxicity and photo-induced biological activity have not been well examined. We have long been interested in phototoxicity of PAHs and their derivatives in…
Study of the anti-proliferative effects and synergy of phthalides from Angelica sinensis on colon cancer cells
Examining cross‐border marriages in Hong Kong since its return to China in 1997
With increasing economic integration and social interactions between Hong Kong and Mainland China, cross‐border marriages between the two have increased substantially, while the sex ratio of the 25–44 age group has decreased to less than one. The influx of Mainland brides, together with ever‐increasing unmarried women in Hong Kong, have put increased pressure on its social and welfare services, and reducing barriers for Hong Kong men seeking Hong…
Examining geographic and occupational mobility
A geographical analysis of spatial differentials in mobility and self‐care limitations among older Americans
In this article we examine regional variations in functional limitations of older Americans. We consider models for ‘life‐long residents’ or those who currently live in their region of birth, and ‘secondary residents’ or those who live in a different region. Sizeable differences in limitations exist, with a higher rate in southern regions. Using a multinomial logit model, we further assess the geographical disparities in functional status while c…
Regional Variation in Family Support for the Elderly in China
The author examines the impact of rapid social change and economic development on family support for older parents in contemporary urban China. Based on the 1992 Survey on China's Support Systems for the Elderly, the author uses three levels of economic development as proxies for developmental stages in a study carried out from a geodevelopmental perspective. It is found that intergenerational support in urban China is persistent as far as instru…
The Spatial Separation of Parents and Their Adult Children
In this paper, we examine the distribution of distances between adult children and their parents in the U.S. We make use of the 1987 National Survey of Families and Households to first describe the distance distribution. We then suggest that the spatial separation between parents and their adult children varies with location and with demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. The results of multiple regression analyses indicate that adult chi…

Regional assessment of elderly disability in the U.S
Examining Distance Effects on Hospitalizations Using GIS
We examine travel distance and its effect on total and on avoidable hospitalizations, using data from three health regions in British Columbia, Canada. We conceptualize distance to hospital in geographic and socioeconomic contexts from the care seeker's perspective, and develop a GIS procedure to generate variables for these contexts. The procedure includes geocoding hospital locations and patient locations to determine travel distance for each h…

Making the Transition from Family Support for the Elderly to Social Support for the Elderly
China is in the midst of a major social transformation. "Providing support for the elderly" has become a growing public concern. Social transformations are bound to bring about changes in the old pattern of eldercare. Under these new historical conditions, the problem of how to build up a social eldercare-guarantees system that has Chinese characteristics and is in accordance with the socialist market economy is a matter of major significance

Elderly Parents and the Geographic Availability of their Adult Children
Using data from the 1987 National Survey of Families and Households, this study examines the distribution and determinants of the geographic distance between elderly parents and their adult children. The majority of elderly Americans have at least one adult child living within 10 miles of their residence; for those with two or more adult children, the second-closest child is usually within 30 miles. Compared with the urban elderly, rural elders l…
Changes in geographic proximity between parents and their adult children
We examine how characteristics of both parents and their adult children condition the changes in intergenerational geographic proximity. Using panel data from the US National Survey of Families and Households, we employ multinomial logistic regression techniques to examine the impact of the joint effects of each generation's structural characteristics on the likelihood of changes in distance between the target persons. Our results show that an in…

Assessing changes in interstate migration patterns of the United States elderly population, 1965–1990
This study examines temporal changes in elderly interstate migration in the United States. All of the interstate movers who were 60 and over are selected from the Public Use Micro-Samples (PUMS) of the 1970, 1980 and 1990 censuses, and three interstate mobility tables are constructed. A triply-constrained gravity model is used to compare the propensities of moving to southern destinations while controlling population sizes for origins, destinatio…

State magnets for different elderly migrant types in the United States
This article identifies a number of elderly ‘migrant types’ in the United States using census data information on state of birth and state of residence prior to the 1985–90 migration period. This typology is useful because it points out significant socio-demographic profiles associated with each migrant type with distinct impacts on elderly ‘magnet’ states. States that serve as classic retirement magnets (e.g. Florida, Arizona) and second-tier re…
