Enacting an Online Depression Community in China: The Community of Practice Perspective.
Health Commun
January 2025
Foreign Studies College, Hunan Normal University.
The dilemma of disclosing one's illness experiences in real life has led to a proliferation of online health communities. It is worth exploring the nature of such communities. Drawing on the community of practice (CoP) theory, this article explores how members enact online health communities by studying the support group "Philosophical Treatment of Depression," one of the largest online depression communities in China.

The majority of a health plan's performance and designated Star Rating is related to medication-related behavior, eg, medication adherence, medication review, and reconciliation, that are intricately related to adverse drug events (ADEs). Altered pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics owing to aging make older adults more vulnerable to ADEs like falls, fractures, hospitalizations, and mortality. Prevention of avoidable risk factors such as medication burden can help maintain quality of life.

Abdominal pain is one of the most common chief complaints that patients present with to healthcare facilities across specialties. Unfortunately for clinicians, the differential diagnosis for abdominal pain is vast. Abdominal pain can be broken down into two broad categories: visceral and non-visceral causes.

We present a comprehensive spectroscopic study supported by theoretical quantum chemical calculations conducted on a molecular system (4-(5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzene-1,3-diol (C1) and the antibiotic Amphotericin B (AmB)) that exhibits highly synergistic properties. We previously reported the strong synergism of this molecular system and now wish to present related stationary measurements of UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence, and fluorescence anisotropy in a polar, aprotic solvent (DMSO and a PBS buffer), followed by time-resolved fluorescence intensity and anisotropy decay studies using different ratios of the selected 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivative to Amphotericin B. Absorption spectra measured for the system revealed discrepancies in terms of the shapes of absorption bands, particularly in PBS.

Physical and photophysical properties of starch-based biopolymer films containing 5-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine (NTA) powder as a nanofiller were examined using atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), stationary UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy as well as resonance light scattering (RLS) and time-resolved measurements, and where possible, analyzed with reference to pristine NTA solutions. AFM studies revealed that the addition of NTA into the starch biopolymer did not significantly affect surface roughness, with all examined films displaying similar Sq values ranging from 70.7 nm to 79.
