Objective: The study examined how mobile phone dependency (MPD) is linked to adolescents' engagement in structured exercise and whether this association operates through three theoretically derived mechanisms-self-control (SC), time management (TM), and health awareness (HA). A complementary configurational analysis explored alternative combinations of these factors that lead to high or low exercise participation.
Methods: A cross-sectional survey was administered to 1,404 Chinese students in Grades 5-9 (49.

Aim: This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT) to those of surgical resection (SR) in patients with HCC.
Methods: This retrospective study included 116 and 947 patients initially receiving CIRT and SR in Japanese institutions from September 2010 and June 2022. We used inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) analysis to correct for imbalances in baseline patient characteristics between the 2 groups.

Introduction Delayed diagnosis of hip fracture (HF), one of the most common fractures encountered in clinical practice, is associated with serious complications or adverse outcomes. However, these fractures are frequently missed on radiography. Auscultatory percussion, a simple screening method that compares percussion sounds between lower limbs using a stethoscope, has limitations owing to its subjective evaluation, which can lead to unstable diagnostic accuracy.

This study critically examines the cognitive and theoretical foundations of the alpha parameter within the Lévy flight model (LFM), an extension of the diffusion decision model (DDM) that incorporates heavy-tailed noise distributions. The alpha parameter, which modulates the tail of these distributions, is assessed for its test-retest reliability - an essential criterion for its classification as a cognitive style measure. Utilizing data from three previous studies, we observed that alpha demonstrates consistent reliability across tasks and time points, supporting its role as a trait-like characteristic.
