Young Adult Perspectives on Artificial Intelligence-Based Medication Counseling in China: Discrete Choice Experiment.

Background: As artificial intelligence (AI) permeates the current society, the young generation is becoming increasingly accustomed to using digital solutions. AI-based medication counseling services may help people take medications more accurately and reduce adverse events. However, it is not known which AI-based medication counseling service will be preferred by young people.

Comparison of Logistic Regression and Machine Learning Approaches in Predicting Depressive Symptoms: A National-Based Study.

Objective: Machine learning (ML) has been reported to have better predictive capability than traditional statistical techniques. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of ML algorithms and logistic regression (LR) for predicting depressive symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: Analyses were carried out in a national cross-sectional study involving 21,916 participants.

The relationship between negative psychological state and quality of life among cardiovascular disease patients in China: the masking effect of abnormal dietary behavior.

Background: It is well known that abnormal dietary behavior increases the risk for cardiovascular disease especially if the person is depressed and/or anxious. The purpose of this study was to construct a moderated mediation model to explore the roles of abnormal dietary behavior and family health in the mechanism through which depression/anxiety influences Quality of life (QoL) in patients with cardiovascular disease.

Methods: A field survey was conducted in China and ultimately included 730 patients with cardiovascular disease aged 20-60 years.

The influence of family health on self-efficacy in patients with chronic diseases: the mediating role of perceived social support and the moderating role of health literacy.

Background: Chronic diseases are a global health challenge, and therefore, more attention should be paid to improving self-efficacy in people with chronic diseases. This study examined the relationship between family health and self-efficacy, and explored the mediating role of perceived social support and the moderating role of health literacy. The aim is to enhance the self-efficacy of chronic patients by improving family health, social support, and health literacy, thereby improving their physical and mental state.

Long Noncoding RNA PSMB8-AS1 Mediates the Tobacco-Carcinogen-Induced Transformation of a Human Bronchial Epithelial Cell Line by Regulating Cell Cycle.

Lung cancer is the main cause of cancer deaths around the world. Nitrosamine 4-(methyl nitrosamine)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) is a tobacco-specific carcinogen of lung cancer. Abundant evidence implicates long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in tumorigenesis.

Depletion of protective microbiota promotes the incidence of fruit disease.

Plant-associated microbiomes play important roles in plant health and productivity. However, despite fruits being directly linked to plant productivity, little is known about the microbiomes of fruits and their potential association with fruit health. Here, by integrating 16S rRNA gene, ITS high-throughput sequencing data, and microbiological culturable approaches, we reported that roots and fruits (pods) of peanut, a typical plant that bears fruits underground, recruit different bacterial and fungal communities independently of cropping conditions and that the incidence of pod disease under monocropping conditions is attributed to the depletion of Bacillus genus and enrichment of Aspergillus genus in geocarposphere.

Dry eye symptoms and health-related quality of life among Chinese individuals: a national-based study.

Aims: To assess the impact of dry eye symptoms (DESs) on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) among Chinese residents.

Methods: A total of 21 916 participants were involved in this nationwide cross-sectional study. All of them completed the Ocular Surface Disease Index-6 and the five-level European Quality of Life 5-Dimensional (EQ-5D) Questionnaire to assess the severity of DES and HRQOL, respectively.

A cross-sectional study: family communication, anxiety, and depression in adolescents: the mediating role of family violence and problematic internet use.

Objective: The objective of this study is to explore the relationship between family communication, family violence, problematic internet use, anxiety, and depression and validate their potential mediating role.

Methods: The study population consisted of Chinese adolescents aged 12 to 18 years, and a cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2022. Structural equation models were constructed using AMOS 25.

Endophytic Fungus Reshapes Spikelet Microbiome to Reduce Mycotoxin Produced by through Altering Rice Metabolites.

Rice spikelet rot disease (RSRD) caused by seriously reduces rice yield and produces mycotoxins that threaten human health. The root symbiotic endophytic fungus reduces RSRD incidence and fumonisins accumulation in grain by 21.5 and 9.

A novel risk model for predicting early relapse in acute myeloid leukemia patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation.

Relapse remains the leading cause of death in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients following allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), limiting the efficacy of allo-HSCT. Thus, the ability to identify high-risk patients in a manner that permits early intervention has the potential to improve survival outcomes. We retrospectively enrolled 414 younger patients (aged 14-60 years) with AML who received allo-HSCT between January 2014 and May 2020.

Mobile health-based home rehabilitation education improving early outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A randomized controlled clinical trial.

Objective: This study aimed to assess changes in joint range of motion (ROM) and knee joint function between patients who received the mobile health-based intervention and those who received regular care at 2 and 6 weeks after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction to provide better interventions in the future.

Methods: Patients who underwent ACL reconstruction were randomized into the experimental [Mobile health-based intervention (MHI); = 62] and control (CON) groups ( = 63). The CON group underwent home-based rehabilitation exercise following the paper rehabilitation schedule, while the intervention group received additional mobile health-based education at weeks 1-6 after surgery.

Evidence-based core information for health communication of tobacco control: The effect of smoking on risks of female disease.

Objective: Cigarettes have become the the biggest killer of contemporary female's health and beauty. What kind of health information is suitable for the general public is an important issue to be discussed globally. The purpose of this study is to generate systematic, rigorous, public-demand-oriented and appropriate core information relevant to tobacco control based on the best available evidence, combined with audience preferences and pre-dissemination content review from multidisciplinary expertise in order to improve the effectiveness of health communication of tobacco control.

Preinoculation with Endophytic fungus Phomopsis liquidambaris reduced rice bakanae disease caused by Fusarium proliferatum via enhanced plant resistance.

Aims: This study evaluated the control effect of the endophytic fungus Phomopsis liquidambaris B3 against rice bakanae disease (RBD) caused by Fusarium proliferatum and the disease control result of different inoculation times of beneficial micro-organisms.

Methods And Results: Rice seedlings preinoculated, coinoculated and noninoculated with B3 were exposed to F. proliferatum stress and grown under controlled conditions.

Influence factors analysis of COVID-19 Prevention behavior of chinese Citizens: a path analysis based on the hypothetical model.
