The urban environment is the "natural laboratory" of the global ecosystem, and it has complicated effects on vegetation growth, including direct effects (land use transformations) and indirect effects (climatic environment changes). However, the long-term responses of vegetation to urbanization and its associated controlling factors across different spatial scales, from pixels to regions, remains unknown. Here, we unraveled the dual influence of urbanization on vegetation growth and its potential drivers along the urban development gradients in China with satellite observations of leaf area index (LAI) during 2000-2020.

Background: Previous studies have identified inequities in the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures used with community-dwelling people living with dementia (PlwDs) or people living with mild cognitive impairment (PlwMCIs) depending on the urban vs. rural location of their residence. Whether those differences in health care and health services utilization still exist for people residing in shared-housing arrangements (SHAs) remains unclear at this point.

Department of Public Health, Shihezi University School of Medicine, North 2 Road, Shihezi, Xinjiang, 832000, China.
Background: Based on age, period, and cohort, this study aimed to understand the trend of impairment of activities of daily living (ADL) and its influencing factors in older adults in China and to provide a basis for the development of appropriate interventions.
Methods: This longitudinal follow-up study was conducted on a sample of 40,748 cases aged ≥ 60 years from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) database of 6 periods, using the six-item ADL scale to measure impaired ability to perform daily activities in older adults. Incorporating independent variables affecting ADL impairment in older adults based on the health ecology theory, a stratified age-period-cohort mixed-effects model was used to analyze the factors influencing impaired ADL in older adults.

Tobacco smoking is a significant global public health challenge, responsible for 8 million deaths annually. This study aimed to analyze the age of smoking initiation and its sociodemographic determinants among Iranian adults, based on data from the 2021 STEPwise approach to surveillance (STEPS) survey, to inform targeted public health interventions. The analysis of 27,874 adults revealed that the average initiation ages for cigarette and hookah smoking were 22.
