Chinese university students' preferences for physical activity incentive programs: a discrete choice experiment.

Purpose: This study aims to explore and compare Chinese university students' preferences for various physical activity motivation programs.

Patients And Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in China from February 25 to March 25, 2022. Participants anonymously completed an online questionnaire based on a DCE.

Current Status and Influencing Factors of Eating Behavior in Residents at the Age of 18~60: A Cross-Sectional Study in China.

As eating behavior is important to health, this cross-sectional study was conducted to analyze the factors influencing the eating behavior related to overweight and obesity of Chinese residents aged 18~60 based on the Ecological Model of Health Behavior. The short-form of the Eating Behavior Scale (EBS-SF) was applied to evaluate eating behavior. The multivariable linear stepwise regression analysis was used to identify and analyze the influence factors, and the receiver operating characteristic curves analysis to validate the predictive capability of the EBS-SF score in differentiating overweight and obesity.

The contribution of plasma uric acid to the risk of stroke in hypertensive populations.

Background: There is limited available evidence of a relationship between uric acid (UA) level and stroke in hypertensive populations worldwide. We aimed to estimate the relationship between UA level and stroke in Chinese hypertensive populations.

Methods: A total of 4 710 essentially hypertensive Chinese patients, including 307 with stroke, were recruited consecutively by cluster sampling from 60 communities in Shenzhen from April 2010 to September 2011.

Prevalence of occupational exposure and its influence on job satisfaction among Chinese healthcare workers: a large-sample, cross-sectional study.

Objectives: This study had three objectives: (1) describe the prevalence of occupational exposure among Chinese medical personnel in detail, (2) verify the partial mediating role of work environment satisfaction in the relationship between occupational exposure and job satisfaction, and (3) examine if stress symptoms moderate the relationship between occupational exposure and job satisfaction.

Design: A large cross-sectional online survey was conducted in July 2018 in China.

Setting: A survey was conducted in 54 cities across 14 provinces of China.

Theoretical investigation into the influence of molar ratio on mixture system: α, γ, δ-HMX molecules coexisting with β-HMX crystal.

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was conducted to research the effect of molar ratios for α/β-HMX, γ/β-HMX, and δ/β-HMX(octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine) mixture systems on thermal stability, sensitivity, and mechanical properties of explosives, and the computing models were established by Materials Studio (MS). The binding energies, the maximum trigger bond length (L), cohesive energy density as well as mechanical properties of the mixture systems and the pure β-HMX crystal were obtained and contrasted. The results demonstrate that the molar ratios have great influence on the binding capacity of molecules between α, γ, δ-HMX, and β-HMX in the mixture systems.

Efficacy of vortioxetine combined cognitive behaviour intervention therapy on brain-derived neurotrophic factor level on depressive patients.

Background: To evaluate the effect of vortioxetine combined with cognitive behaviour intervention on the level of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the serum of patients with depression and its therapeutic effect.

Methods: A total of 82 depressive patients treated at the School of Basic Medicine, Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine from January 2017 to June 2017 were randomised into a control group (n = 41) and intervention group (n = 41) according to a random number table. Both groups were given vortioxetine treatment, while the intervention group adopted an additional cognitive-behavioural therapy at the same time.

Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry Simultaneous Determination and Pharmacokinetic Study of Fourteen Alkaloid Components in Dog Plasma after Oral Administration of Extract.

A rapid and sensitive Ultra high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of fourteen alkaloids in beagle dog plasma after a single oral dose of the () extract selected bifendate as the internal standard (IS). The plasma samples were preprocessed by liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) with aether before separation on an Agilent SB-C column (1.8 µm, 150 × 2.

Microstructure Changes in Polyester Polyurethane upon Thermal and Humid Aging.

The microstructure of compression molded Estane 5703 films exposed to 11%, 45%, and 80% relative humidity and 70 °C for 1 and 2 months has been studied by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Scattering data indicated increase of the interdomain distance and domain size with a higher humidity and longer aging time. GPC data showed a progressive shortening of polyurethane chains with increasing humidity and aging time.
