The disease burden of air pollution (AP) has been well-documented, yet few studies have explored its economic burden. Retrieving disease burden data from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2021, this study constructed a cost-of-illness (COI) model to estimate China's economic burden of AP in 1990 and 2021 and to identify national and provincial differences, then, an age-period-cohort (APC) model was adopted to estimate trends to 2050. Results demonstrated a serious load of AP, emphasizing the necessity for intervention.

Centre for Aging SMART at Vancouver Coastal Health, Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Purpose: Mental health conditions after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) are common and can complicate injury outcomes, but are under-treated. According to the Common Sense Model of Self-Regulation, the way patients perceive their health conditions can influence the way they manage them, including if, when, and how they seek treatment. This study explored how individuals perceive persistent symptoms after mTBI, in order to develop a grounded theory about what motivates and demotivates them to seek mental health treatment after their injury.

Dementia clinical trials often fail to include diverse and historically minoritized groups. We sought to adapt the Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias-Palliative Care (ADRD-PC) clinical trial to improve enrollment and address the cultural needs of people with late-stage ADRD who identify as Hispanic or Latino and their family caregivers. Bilingual, bicultural research team members adapted study materials and processes using the Cultural Adaptation Process Model.
