Doctors' Personal Preference and Adoption of Mobile Apps to Communicate with Patients in China: Qualitative Study.

Background: Different kinds of mobile apps are used to promote communications between patients and doctors. Studies have investigated patients' mobile app adoption behavior; however, they offer limited insights into doctors' personal preferences among a variety of choices of mobile apps.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the nuanced adoption behaviors among doctors in China, which has a robust adoption of mobile apps in health care, and to explore the constraints influencing their selection of specific mobile apps.

Pathogenic and genomic characterization of rabbit-sourced serogroup F isolates recovered from dead rabbits with respiratory disease.

Unlabelled: serogroup F can infect a number of animals. However, the pathogenicity and genomic features of this serogroup are still largely unknown. In the present study, the pathogenicity and genomic sequences of 19 rabbit-sourced serogroup F isolates were determined.

Two cities, two stages in transforming society-a mixed methods study comparing doctors' adoption of mobile apps for communication with patients in Hangzhou and Yancheng, China.

Objectives: Mobile apps have become commonplace in doctor-patient communication over the last 20 years. Doctors mainly use two kinds of app, social networking apps (i.e.

Dual effects of gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone on testicular development in prepubertal Minxinan Black rabbits ().

Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) is a neurohormone that not only suppresses reproduction at the brain level but also regulates steroidogenesis and gametogenesis at the gonad level. However, its function in gonadal physiology has received little attention in rabbits. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of GnIH on testicular development and function in prepubertal Minxinan Black rabbits ().

Pathogenic and genomic characterisation of a rabbit sourced Pasteurella multocida serogroup F isolate s4.

Background: Pasteurella multocida is one of the most significant pathogens for a number of animals. In rabbits, the infection is generally associated with the P. multocida serogroups A and D, and the knowledge about the serogroup F is limited.

Investigating the Relationships Between Public Health Literacy and Public Trust in Physicians in China's Control of COVID-19: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Public trust in physicians and public health literacy (HL) are important factors that ensure the effectiveness of health-care delivery, particularly that provided during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. This study investigates HL as a predictor of public trust in physicians in China's ongoing efforts to control COVID-19. Data were gathered in February 2020 during the peak of the disease in China.

The cream-skimming effect in China's health care services: A mixed methods study.

Objective: One of the greatest inequities in China's health care service is that between senior cadres, high-level bureaucrats, and the general public in terms of hospital access and payment. We aim to demonstrate this inequity and to explore its connection with the regional inequity of different levels of health care facilities.

Methods: In a content analysis of official websites of provincial health bureaus and national top hospitals, we determine whether senior cadres enjoy priority in health services with fewer payments.

Characterization of Pasteurella multocida isolated from dead rabbits with respiratory disease in Fujian, China.

Background: Pasteurella multocida is one of the important pathogens that infect rabbits, causing major economic losses in commercial rabbit farming. In this study, 205 P. multocida isolates recovered from lungs of dead rabbits with respiratory disease were defined by capsular serogroups, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) genotypes, multi-locus sequence types and screened virulence factors by using PCR assays, and tested antimicrobial susceptibility.

[Study on drug-resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolated from coal workers with silico-tuberculosis].

Objective: To study the gene mutation and streptomycin, isoniazid or rifampicin resistance of Mycobacterium isolated from silico-tuberculosis patient's sputum so as to find a more effective therapy for this disease.

Methods: Mycobacteria tuberculosis were separated from 96 coal worker with silico-tuberculosis firstly. Then rpsL, KatG and rpoB fragments of genome were copied with PCR and compared their SSCP profiles with standard strains.
