How to promote telemedicine in underdeveloped cities in central China? Qualitative interviews with medical personnel in tertiary A-level hospital of Xinyang City.

Background: Telemedicine has emerged as a novel healthcare service model that plays a vital role in addressing the unequal distribution of medical resources. Telemedicine has recently gained significant traction in economically prosperous cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou in China. However, Xinyang City in Henan Province is an economically less developed city, and telemedicine is still in its early stages.

Qualitative research on undergraduate nursing students' recognition and response to short videos' health disinformation.

Background: With the popularity of the internet, short videos have become an indispensable tool to obtain health information. However, avoiding health disinformation owing to the openness of the Internet is difficult for users. Disinformation may endanger the health and lives of users.

Ambient PM components might exacerbate bone loss among middle-aged and elderly women: evidence from a population-based cross-sectional study.

Background: Previous studies have primarily focused on the links between fine particulate matter (PM) and bone health among the general population instead of PM components and the specific population. We aimed to investigate the associations between PM components and bone health among middle-aged and elderly women.

Methods: A total of 748 middle-aged and elderly women were randomly sampled from 32 streets/villages in Hubei Province.

Aim: To investigate the current situation and need for post-competence training for psychiatric nurses in China and provide a reference for the development of training programs for psychiatric nurses.

Design: A cross-sectional design.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from August to October 2023 with 435 psychiatric nurses from 34 hospitals in 24 provinces of mainland China.

Single-sensor rotating blade monitoring method under non-stationary conditions based on velocity and displacement.

A novel single-sensor method for monitoring rotating blade vibration is proposed and utilized to identify vibration parameters under the non-stationary condition. By analyzing the pulse-signal waveform, the blade tip displacement and vibration velocity are extracted. Then, the motion equation under the non-stationary condition is further developed to provide a theoretical basis.

Research on the mechanism of short video information interaction behavior of college students with psychological disorders based on grounded theory.

Background: The utilization of short videos by individuals often leads to the emergence of information exchange behavior. Previous studies have shown that certain students with psychological disorders exhibit addictive tendencies towards short video-related software. Therefore, it is essential to address the psychology and behavior of college students with psychological disorders while engaging with short videos.

Association between nut consumption and mortality among Chinese older people: A national cohort study based on CLHLS from 2008 to 2018.

Background: Few quantitative studies have explored the associations between nut consumption and better health outcomes among a national cohort of community-dwelling older Chinese people. Given the need for more evidence to support the health benefits of nuts among Chinese people, we investigated whether nut consumption was associated with subsequent 10-year mortality.

Methods: We analyzed data from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey.

Microwave-induced steam distillation (MISD) remediation in petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated sites: From process improvement to pilot application.

The process improvement, a pilot remediation test and the decontamination mechanism of microwave-induced steam distillation (MISD) for petroleum hydrocarbons (PHs) removal were conducted. Processes of multistage steam distillation and carbon reinforcement were compared to determine the best remediation process. Pilot project was then carried out to explore the applicability of MISD in site-scale remediation.

Serial multiple mediators in the relationship between symptom burden and sleep quality among patients with heart failure.

Background: Sleep disturbance is common in patients with heart failure. The aims of this study were to assess the prevalence of sleep disturbance in patients with heart failure, and to examine the serial multiple mediation effects of psychological distress and sleep hygiene practices on the relationship between symptom burden and sleep quality.

Methods: We recruited eligible heart failure patients in a large, university-affiliated hospital in Shandong Province, China, from November 2018 to June 2019.

Scalable Characterization of 2D Gallium-Intercalated Epitaxial Graphene.

Scalable synthesis of two-dimensional gallium (2D-Ga) covered by graphene layers was recently realized through confinement heteroepitaxy using silicon carbide substrates. However, the thickness, uniformity, and area coverage of the 2D-Ga heterostructures have not previously been studied with high-spatial resolution techniques. In this work, we resolve and measure the 2D-Ga heterostructure thicknesses using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Analysis of the LNAPL Migration Process in the Vadose Zone under Two Different Media Conditions.

This study focused on the processes of free infiltration, precipitation displacement, and natural attenuation of the LNAPL under the condition of near-surface leakage. Sandbox experiments were performed to explore the migration characteristics of LNAPL in the vadose zone with two media structures and the influences of the soil interface on the migration of LNAPL. The results indicate that the vertical migration velocity of the LNAPL infiltration front in medium and coarse sand was 1 order of magnitude higher than that in fine sand and that the LNAPL accumulated at the coarse-fine interface, which acted as the capillary barrier.

Determinants of the behavioral intention to use a mobile nursing application by nurses in China.

Background: Although a mobile nursing application has began to adopt in nursing, few studies have focused on nurses' behavioral intention of it. The objective of this study is to gain insight into the behavioral intention of nurses, i.e.

Diagnostic accuracy of machine-learning-assisted detection for anterior cruciate ligament injury based on magnetic resonance imaging: Protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Although many machine learning algorithms have been developed to detect anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the performance of different algorithms required further investigation. The objectives of this current systematic review are to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of machine-learning-assisted detection for ACL injury based on MRI and find the current best algorithm.

Method: We will conduct a comprehensive database search for clinical diagnostic tests in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of science without restrictions on publication status and language.

Influence of arm position change from adduction to abduction on intracavitary electrocardiogram.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of arm movements from adduction to abduction on intracavitary electrocardiogram and the position of a catheter tip.

Methods: Overall, 192 peripherally inserted central catheter lines were placed under intracavitary electrocardiogram guidance and 188 of them were enrolled in the study. The catheter was first placed at a time point corresponding to the peak P wave with the arm in adduction.

Sparse Representation Based Frequency Detection and Uncertainty Reduction in Blade Tip Timing Measurement for Multi-Mode Blade Vibration Monitoring.

The accurate monitoring of blade vibration under operating conditions is essential in turbo-machinery testing. Blade tip timing (BTT) is a promising non-contact technique for the measurement of blade vibrations. However, the BTT sampling data are inherently under-sampled and contaminated with several measurement uncertainties.

Analytic double product integrals for all-frequency relighting.

This paper presents a new technique for real-time relighting of static scenes with all-frequency shadows from complex lighting and highly specular reflections from spatially varying BRDFs. The key idea is to depict the boundaries of visible regions using piecewise linear functions, and convert the shading computation into double product integrals—the integral of the product of lighting and BRDF on visible regions. By representing lighting and BRDF with spherical Gaussians and approximating their product using Legendre polynomials locally in visible regions, we show that such double product integrals can be evaluated in an analytic form.
