Real-time physiological and emotional responses to the deadly Tai Po fire in Hong Kong
Exploring parental preferences for childhood obesity prevention program in China
Understanding parental preferences and concerns is vital for crafting effective public health policies aligned with UN SDGs and the SDH framework. Key elements include promoting balanced diets, ensuring safe exercise spaces, and fostering parental engagement. Collaboration among policymakers, educators, and parents is essential to mitigate childhood obesity
Neighbourhood, school and home food environment associations with dietary behaviours in Hong Kong adolescents
This study is the first to examine whether neighbourhood, school and home food environments were associated with dietary behaviours in Hong Kong adolescents; and whether off-campus lunch school policy, bringing lunch from home and parental rules for eating behaviours moderated the associations. We used data from the international Healthy environments and active living in teenagers - (Hong Kong) [iHealt(H)] study. Participants were healthy adolesc…
Patients, healthcare providers, and general population preferences for hemodialysis vascular access
Background: A patient-centered dialysis treatment option requires an understanding of patient preferences for alternative vascular accesses and nephrologists often face difficulties when recommending vascular access to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients. We aimed to quantify the relative importance of various vascular access characteristics to patients, healthcare providers and general population, and how they affect acceptability for patie…
Socioeconomic characteristics and domestic work as correlates of family satisfaction in Hong Kong mothers of young children
How the perceived neighbourhood environment influences active living in older dwellers of an Asian ultra-dense metropolis
The way older adults perceive their neighbourhood environment may determine their levels of physical activity. We examined the associations of perceived neighbourhood environmental attributes with accelerometry-assessed and self-reported physical activity and sedentary time in Hong Kong Chinese older adults. In doing so, we estimated the inter-relationships among perceived environmental attributes, the mediating role of physical activity in the e…
Healthcare preferences of the general Chinese population in the hierarchical medical system
Background: Chinese health insurance system faces resource distribution challenges. A patient-centric approach allows decision-makers to be keenly aware of optimized medical resource allocation. Objective: This study aims to use the discrete choice model to determine the main factors affecting the healthcare preferences of the general Chinese population and their weights in the three scenarios (chronic non-communicable diseases, acute infectious …
The Construct Structures of Psychological and Behavioral Responses to Covid-19 Pandemic in Pregnant Women
The inter-relationships between the COVID-19-related psychosocial and behavioral responses have been assessed, indicating that the pandemic increased the burden of perinatal depression. Psychoeducation, as well as other psychological interventions, may be needed to alleviate the COVID-19-based anxiety and increase their engagement in protective behaviors
Physical Activity during Pregnancy
different patterns in physical activity between objective measure and self-report in relation to gestational glucose levels were observed. Short-term increase in moderate physical activity prior to OGTT may not be necessary for reducing presence of GDM. Future glucose management for pregnant women may be targeted at lower intensity physical activity
Lifestyles and health-related quality of life in Chinese people
In China, people with healthy dietary habits, regular sports habits, healthy weight and male groups tended to have better HRQoL. Clinical medical history and drinking history were negatively related to HRQoL. Small families tend to have poorer HRQoL than big families. The finding implicated influence of the number of family members on people's perception of health and provided scientific evidence for the current policies to encourage birth in Chi…
Perceived Effectiveness, Safety, and Attitudes Toward the Use of Nucleic Tests of Sars-CoV-2 Among Clinicians and General Public in China
Objective: To assess whether there is a knowledge gap about the use of test kits for residents and to explore the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of using test kits in China during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic. Method: An online-based, nationwide, and cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 1,167 respondents were recruited from June 19 to July 2, 2020. All participants completed a validated questionnaire written in…

Objectively-Measured Neighbourhood Attributes as Correlates and Moderators of Quality of Life in Older Adults with Different Living Arrangements
With an ageing world population, preservation of older adults' health and quality of life (QoL) is paramount. Due to lower levels of physical functionality, older adults are particularly susceptible to local environment influences, especially those living alone and lacking family support. Using generalised additive mixed models, we examined associations and confounder-adjusted associations between objectively-measured neighbourhood attributes and…
Relationships between the neighborhood environment and depression in older adults
Associations of objectively-assessed neighborhood characteristics with older adults’ total physical activity and sedentary time in an ultra-dense urban environment
Associations of objectively-assessed neighborhood characteristics with older adults’ total physical activity and sedentary time in an ultra-dense urban environment
