As a novel experiential approach, live streaming at tourist destinations has garnered significant attention and profoundly impacts tourists' travel decisions. This study aims to validate the effects of usefulness, authenticity, and interactivity of destination live streams on the decision-making process of tourists. Grounded in stimulus-organism-response (S-O-R) theory, this research identifies the usefulness, authenticity, and interactivity of destination live streams as the "stimulus," while telepresence and trust as the "organism," with tourists' travel decisions as the "response.

In this study, we present the first nationwide estimation of the temperature-tourism response function using a fine-grained panel dataset constructed by matching tourism data and daily meteorological datasets for 280 cities from 2005 to 2019 in China. Results show a non-linear relationship between temperature and tourism employing the temperature bins method, which is not sensitive to response equations.

As opposed to previous studies that mainly focused on single lithiation/delithiation mechanisms, we reveal three Li-ion modulation mechanisms in the same NiFeO spinel ferrite by magnetometry, ., intercalation, conversion, and space charge, which are respectively demonstrated in high, medium, and low voltage range.

Here, we reinterpreted the essential issue about the potential of the conversion reaction and whether there is an intercalation reaction in a lithium/sodium-ion battery (LIB/SIB) with the FeP anode based on the evolution of the magnetic phase. Especially, the ever-present intercalation process in a large voltage range followed by the conversion reaction with extremely low potential was confirmed in FeP LIB, while it is mainly the conversion reaction for the sodium storage mechanism in FeP SIB.

This study aimed to analyze the current SDM status of advanced cancer patients and related factors.
Methods: In quantitative research, we administered a cross-sectional survey to 513 advanced cancer patients in 16 tertiary hospitals in China.
The rapid development of flexible/wearable electronics requires novel fabricating strategies. Among the state-of-the-art techniques, inkjet printing has aroused considerable interest due to the possibility of large-scale fabricating flexible electronic devices with good reliability, high time efficiency, a low manufacturing cost, and so on. In this review, based on the working principle, recent advances in the inkjet printing technology in the field of flexible/wearable electronics are summarized, including flexible supercapacitors, transistors, sensors, thermoelectric generators, wearable fabric, and for radio frequency identification.

Photocatalysts based on titanium dioxide (TiO) have shown great potential in the field of antimicrobials because of their high efficiency, lack of pollution, and lack of side effects. This paper focuses on the antimicrobial activity of TiO under different light sources.
