Brucellosis is a significant global challenge, but there has been a lack of epidemiological studies on brucellosis in Xinjiang from a change point perspective. This study aims to bridge this gap by employing sequence decomposition and identifying significant change points, with datasets sourced from the Xinjiang Disease Prevention and Control Information System. This study employed the BEAST algorithm to decompose the brucellosis time series in Xinjiang from 2010 to 2023, while simultaneously identifying change points in the decomposed seasonal and trend components.

Climate change is having unprecedented impacts on human health, including increasing infectious disease risk. Despite this, health systems across the world are currently not prepared for novel disease scenarios anticipated with climate change. While the need for health systems to develop climate change adaptation strategies has been stressed in the past, there is no clear consensus on how this can be achieved, especially in rural areas in low- and middle-income countries that experience high disease burdens and climate change impacts simultaneously.

Background: Most existing studies focus on either the relationship between sarcopenia and depressive symptoms or sarcopenia and cognitive functions. Few studies have examined depressive symptoms and cognitive functions simultaneously. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between sarcopenia and both depressive symptoms and cognitive functions in the elderly by introducing activities of daily living to explore the mediating role of activities of daily living between sarcopenia and mental health.

Introduction: Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is commonly used alongside Western medicine for stroke management in China. However, there is significant variation in TCM practice, and the utilisation of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines is inadequate. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of three popular frameworks-Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) and Normalization Process Theory (NPT)-in improving implementation outcomes for the integrated TCM and Western medicine clinical practice guideline for stroke management.

Oman achieved elimination status in 2019. Currently, measles epidemiology is characterized by a small number of imported and importation-related cases with limited spread in the community.
