China's population is ageing, affecting trends in social development and basic national conditions. More attention must be paid to the lack of care needs assessments for the elderly in China's pension institutions. This paper discusses a systematic evaluation of the care needs of the elderly in China's elderly care institutions. Literature was collected and synthesized after a search of the Web of Science, PubMed, and other databases for works published up to August 2021. Relevant content is proposed, including the name of the first author, publication date, study area, and sample size. Exactly 18 articles were included in the literature, documents that reported on a total of 7277 elderly people. The results showed a combined demand rate of primary care needs ≥50%. The top five needs included mental/psychological (76%), tranquillity/care (73%), living/environmental (71%), medical treatment (64%), and preventive healthcare (64%). The combined demand rate of secondary care needs was ≥50%. The top five needs included 79% for room/laundry/cleaning, 77% for psychological comfort and nursing, 73% for end-of-life care, 70% for disease diagnosis and treatment, and 69% for physical examination. The health needs of older people are diverse and focus mainly on mental/psychological, tranquility/care, living/environmental (71%), pharmacotherapy, and preventive healthcare.

Problematic smartphone use (PSU) has emerged as a pressing concern among college students, with cumulative ecological risk identified as a crucial yet enigmatic contributor. To unravel its underlying mechanisms, we devised and validated a model that delves into the mediating roles of performance and learning goal orientations, as well as the moderating influence of psychological resilience. Our investigation encompassed 2011 Chinese college students spanning from freshmen to seniors, aged 16 to 25, utilizing comprehensive scales to assess various constructs.
