Background The American Heart Association's Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Events model offers a modern, race‐free approach to risk prediction, but its subgroup fairness and the added value of social determinants of health (SDOH) remain underexplored. Methods To evaluate Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Events in 10‐year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease prediction regarding fairness and value of SDOH predictors, we conducted a retrospective cohort study of 554 675 adults aged 30 to 79 year …

Abstract Background Exposure to blue spaces has been associated with better mental health, but most studies have focused on environmental proximity rather than actual use (frequency of visits and activity types) and have been conducted in Western countries. Evidence among older adults in Asian settings remains limited. This study examined the associations between frequency of visits to blue spaces within walking distance, activity types performed there, and mental health among older adults using data from 69 munici …

Abstract This paper examines the time-varying responses of China’s economic policy uncertainty (EPU) to five structural oil-price shocks, with particular attention to the responses of price- and quantity-based monetary policy instruments. Using quarterly data from 2007Q2 to 2025Q1, we estimate a TVP-VAR-SV model that incorporates both the interest rate gap and the money supply gap to capture the coexistence of price- and quantity-based policy tools in China. The results show that only aggregate supply shocks elicit …

Infertility poses a multidimensional burden, especially for women in low- and middle-income countries, where it is often associated with social stigma, emotional distress, and limited support. This study aimed to assess the mental health status and its associated factors among women with fertility issues visiting fertility center in the Kathmandu Valley. A cross-sectional study was conducted from October 2023 to April 2024, and participant data collected from November 2023 to February 2024, among 143 women of repro …
Antibiotics
Background: Antimicrobial resistance is a major global health challenge, with multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) emerging faster than new antimicrobial agents are being developed. The epidemiology of MDROs varies substantially across healthcare settings; however, newly established hospitals remain understudied. This study aimed to characterise the epidemiology and temporal trends of MDROs in a newly established tertiary hospital. Methods: A five-year retrospective longitudinal surveillance study was conducted fr …

Background/Objectives: This pilot study aimed to develop and compare advanced machine learning models, specifically a Bayesian-regularized artificial neural network (ANN) and a transformer-enhanced physics-informed neural network (PINN), by integrating periodontal health indices and hematological inflammatory markers for the prediction of GDM. Methods: Utilizing a prospective case–control study design, a clinical dataset comprising 80 pregnant women (40 with GDM and 40 healthy controls) was evaluated to develop and …

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represents most lung cancer diagnoses worldwide and remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. The advent of precision oncology has transformed the therapeutic landscape of NSCLC through the identification of druggable genetic alterations, enabling the use of targeted therapies with significant clinical benefit. However, the reported prevalence of these alterations varies widely across studies and populations, raising important questions about the underlying determinants …

Abstract Objectives KPC-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (KPC-PA) has emerged as an important multidrug-resistant pathogen, yet its population structure and lineage-associated genomic variation remain incompletely understood. We investigated the genomic epidemiology of an international collection of KPC-PA genomes to characterize population structure, evolutionary patterns, and lineage-associated genomic features. Methods A complete genome of a clinical ST463 isolate (PA328) was generated using hybrid sequencing an …

Abstract Background FDA inspections are central to oversight of the pharmaceutical manufacturing base, but long-term inspection and reinspection patterns remain incompletely characterized. Methods We analyzed 25,629 FDA Drug Quality Assurance inspections conducted from October 2008 through December 2025. We described annual, regional, and outcome patterns. Linking inspections to facilities, we examined time to reinspection according to the outcome of preceding inspections. Results Annual Drug Quality Assurance insp …
Designs
Individuals with lower-limb mobility impairment often experience fear of falling and difficulty coordinating with caregivers during transfer tasks. Therefore, safe, stable, and easy-to-operate collaborative transfer assistive equipment is urgently needed. This study proposes a Health Belief Model-driven design method for transfer assistive equipment, aiming to translate users’ risk perceptions and behavioral needs into implementable structural design strategies. First, transfer-related behavioral characteristics we …

Syphilis infection during pregnancy leads to around 390,000 adverse birth outcomes each year and is an important cause of preventable stillbirth. Although benzathine penicillin G is safe and effective during pregnancy for treating maternal and fetal infection, there are frequent global shortages and limited options for people with penicillin allergy. We conducted a review of potential alternatives to penicillin for treating syphilis during pregnancy when penicillin is not available or cannot be used, including ceft …
Sports Health: A Multidisciplinary Approach
Background: Stud design is critical in modulating impact forces between football boot and turf, yet most systems prioritize traction using rigid materials, largely neglecting the role of material flexibility in load attenuation. This study assessed the biomechanical effects of 2 novel flexible stud designs compared with a traditional rigid stud during football-specific cutting and landing tasks. Hypothesis: Replacing traditional rigid studs with more flexible alternatives would reduce the magnitude and increase the …

Background Narrative assessment offers unique insight into psychological functioning but is resource-intensive, requiring extensive expert training and time. Recent work suggests Artificial Intelligence (AI), including moderately sized, adaptable large language models (LLMs), can master narrative assessment's complex, multi-step scoring rules. This study examined whether fine-tuning could enable AI raters to accurately assess narratives. Method We fine-tuned five diverse LLMs (3–7 billion parameters) on two dataset …
Neuro-Oncology
Abstract Introduction Window-of-opportunity (WoO) trials are increasingly proposed in glioblastoma drug development to test early biological activity (tumour penetration and target engagement), before progression to large, costly late-phase trials. While WoO designs may improve early decision-making, they introduce additional operational complexity and upfront costs. Their economic value remains uncertain. Methods An early decision-analytic model was developed to assess the cost-effectiveness of incorporating a WoO …

Background Rate of bystander-initiated cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) remains critically low in China. Identifying the underlying reasons may help reduce mortality from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 572 participants in Shaanxi, China. A researcher-developed questionnaire was used to assess four domains: ability to recognize the need for CPR, willingness to perform CPR, internal concerns about initiating CPR, and actual CPR competence. Subgroup analys …

Beijing International Review of Education
China's implementation of the “Double Reduction” (DR, Shuangjian ) policy has raised occupational demands for educators, intensified societal expectations and parental oversight, and thus exacerbated teachers’ family and interpersonal pressure. Based on survey data from 300 primary and secondary school teachers, this study explores the mechanism through which teachers’ dual work pressure is linked to job burnout via emotional labor. The results show that work pressure does not necessarily lead to job burnout, and d …
