Seasonal and sex differences in instrumental activities of daily living and objective physical activity among older adults residing in rural areas with snow and cold regions.
J Rural Med
January 2025
Graduate School of Rehabilitation Sciences, Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, Japan.
Objective: To determine the seasonal differences in instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) and objective physical activity among older adults residing in non-urban areas in snowy and cold regions according to sex.
Patients And Methods: Fifty older adults aged ≥65 years were included in the present study. IADL was assessed using the revised Frenchay Activities Index (FAI), and physical activity was measured using a triaxial accelerometer.
Sex-, age- and season-specific variations in accidental deaths from stumbling falls, bathtub drowning, food choking and traffic injuries among older adults in Japan.

Nagano Prefectural Assembly, Nagano, Japan.
Aim: The aim of this study was to identify opportunities for more effective measures. We analyzed sex-, age- and season-specific trends in unintentional accidental deaths from stumbling falls, bathtub drowning, food choking and traffic injuries among older adults in Japan.
Methods: Death rates from major unintentional accidents were analyzed by sex, month and 5-year age groups (aged ≥50 years) based on a custom-made aggregation of data from the Vital Statistics survey (2008-2022) in compliance with the Statistics Act.
Impact of urgent care centers on emergency department visits in Al Madina Al Munawara: A pre-post study.
Saudi Med J
January 2025
From the Model of Care (AlJohani, Al-Hazmi, Al-saedi, Al-Ahmadi), and from Healthcare Strategy Administration (Alshammary),Madinah Health Cluster, Al Madina Al Munawara, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Objectives: To evaluate the impact of UCCs on reducing non-urgent Emergency Department (ED) visits and improving patient flow, focusing on metrics such as door-to-doctor time, doctor-to-decision time, and overall patient disposition.
Methods: This observational cohort pre-post study analyzed data from 198,050 ED visits to King Fahad Hospital, Al Madina Al Munawara between June 2021 and May 2023 and compared visit patterns before and after UCC implementation.
Results: Post-UCC implementation, the average door-to-doctor time decreased but was not statistically significant.
Role of factors controlling diurnal variation of cold-season formaldehyde during Satellite Integrated Joint Monitoring of Air Quality 2021 campaign.

Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology, Ulsan, Republic of Korea. Electronic address:
Formaldehyde (HCHO), a major carbonyl compound in urban air, poses health risks due to its carcinogenic properties. However, the role of FT-PBL exchange in HCHO and the importance of vertical exchange on diurnal variations in HCHO remain unclear. This study investigated the diurnal variability of HCHO in Seoul's planetary boundary layer (PBL) during cold.

We evaluate global microplastics particle density distribution using field data from 1972 to 2022, made available by the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) NCEI (National Centers for Environmental Information) global marine microplastics database. We resampled the measured microplastics density data from NOAA NCEI into a regularly spaced 1° × 1° grid and applied ordinary block kriging on a 1° × 1° mask map of the global oceans to spatially interpolate the gridded data. Climate data were retrieved from the Climate Data Store of the Copernicus Climate Change Service.
