Ministry of Education Ecological Field Station for East Asian Migratory Birds, Institute for Global Change Studies, Department of Earth System Science, Tsinghua University, Beijing, 100084, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Cities are crucial for understanding population dynamics, especially for urban planning and environmental projections, but there's a lack of reliable city-level population projections in China.
  • Current methods that aggregate data from smaller regions introduce significant errors (around 30%), causing inaccuracies in population trends.
  • This study improves upon previous work by enhancing the demographic model with city-level data, redesigning migration modules to reflect local factors, and examining various fertility and migration scenarios.

Background: The burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is on the rise in China, yet a comprehensive and systematic understanding of the temporal trends and distribution of CVD burden attributable to dietary factors across the provinces remains elusive. This study endeavors to provide a comprehensive depiction of the burden of CVDs attributable to dietary risk factors across China's geographical regions from 2002 to 2018.

Methods: Data from the China National Nutrition Surveys, the China Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance, the Hypertension Survey, and the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention cause-of-death reporting system were used to estimate the intake of dietary factor, the number of deaths, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), mortality rate, for ischemic heart disease (IHD), ischemic stroke (IS), hemorrhage and other stroke (HOS) attributable to dietary factors at national and provincial levels in China from 2002 to 2018.

Department of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, School of Medicine, Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, China. Electronic address:

Background: Most previous studies have focused on the health effect of temperature or humidity, and few studies have explored the combined health effects of exposure to temperature and humidity. This study aims to estimate the relationship between humidity-cold events and mortality, and then to compare the mortality burden between exposure to dry-cold events and wet-cold events, and finally to explore whether there was an additive interaction of temperature and humidity on mortality.

Methods: In the study, Daily mortality data during 2006-2017 were collected from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in China, and daily mean temperature and daily mean relative humidity data from 698 weather stations in China were obtained from the China Meteorological Data Sharing Service system.

Department of Geriatrics, Tianjin Medical University General Hospital, Tianjin Key Laboratory of Elderly Health, Tianjin Geriatrics Institute, Tianjin, China.

Article Synopsis
  • A meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between passive smoking exposure and the risk of type 2 diabetes, which had not been systematically studied before.
  • The analysis included data from ten prospective cohort studies with over 251,000 participants, revealing that nonsmokers exposed to passive smoking had a significantly higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes (RR = 1.27).
  • The findings suggest that passive smoking exposure contributes to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, indicating potential benefits for public health initiatives aimed at reducing such exposures.
