The article presents comparative results of studying opinion of citizens and officials making decisions on modernization of urban environment, about cities conditions. It is established that valuations of citizens and decision makers about urban infrastructure, its quantity and quality, process of cooperation in this area as well as consideration of interests in healthy urban planning differ significantly. The majority of surveyed decision-makers are more satisfied with conditions of their city infrastructure than citizens. The same trend persists in assessing quantity and quality of sport and physical education institutions. On the contrary, environmental situation in municipalities is more likely to suit citizens as compared to decision makers. The decision-makers are more optimistic about intersectorial cooperation in issues of healthy urban planning. The respondents note that issues and interests of health are not sufficiently considered in development and adoption of urban planning decisions in their municipalities. To correct the situation, it is necessary to implement appropriate strategies of healthy urban planning, to determine organizational mechanisms for their implementation in national conditions and to confirm their effectiveness in organizational experiment.

Cannabinoids for Acute Postoperative Pain Management: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Clinical Trials.
Eur J Pain

Universidad del Bosque, Bogotá, Colombia.
Background: Poor acute postoperative pain control, coupled with the use of intravenous medications with a limited and unsafety efficacy spectrum, has led to new therapeutic alternative explorations to reduce adverse events while increasing its analgesic efficacy. There cannabinoids have been proposed as a useful control agent in post-surgical pain. Nevertheless, to date, there is no solid evidence to evaluate them.

Air pollution has become a major challenge to global urban sustainable development, necessitating urgent solutions. Meteorological variables are key determinants of air quality; however, research on their impact across different urban gradients remains limited, and their mechanisms are largely unexplored. This study investigates the dynamic effects of meteorological variables on air quality under varying levels of urbanization using Kaohsiung City, Taiwan, as a case study.

Accurate building segmentation has become critical in various fields such as urban management, urban planning, mapping, and navigation. With the increasing diversity in the number, size, and shape of buildings, convolutional neural networks have been used to segment and extract buildings from such images, resulting in increased efficiency and utilization of image features. We propose a building semantic segmentation method to improve the traditional Unet convolutional neural network by integrating attention mechanism and boundary detection.

On-demand mobility services (FLEX) are often proposed as a solution for the first/last mile problem. We study the potential of using FLEX to improve train station access by means of a three-step sequential stated preference survey. We compare FLEX with the bicycle, car and public transport for accessing two alternative train stations.

Hous Stud

Department of Geography, Planning and International Development Studies, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Housing system transitions often involve successive but overlapping periods of reform with crucial implications for housing inequality dynamics. Building on welfare regime and market transition discussions, this paper considers how the shifting roles of the state, market, and family in housing provision in China have led to changing housing tenures and differentiated access to them between populations with varying socio-economic resources. Drawing on two national datasets, our analyses reveal that the four decades of reforms dramatically upended urban China's tenure structure with market homeownership becoming the dominant tenure.
