Building information modeling (BIM) demonstrates transformative potential in enhancing productivity within the architecture, engineering and construction industry. Nevertheless, determining how to improve the project performance through diverse BIM application conditions and identifying the performance improvement paths remains a valuable yet underexplored topic. Combined with the four actual application stages of BIM (the embryonic, the development, the stability, and the maturity stage) and five application conditions (BIM personnel training, BIM application points, BIM team building, BIM platform establishment, and BIM standard formulation), this study explores the performance improvement paths for Chinese BIM-supported civil engineering projects using the qualitative comparative analysis method. The findings indicate that none of the five application conditions constitutes a necessary condition for high project performance. The results reveal three configuration paths for enhancing comprehensive and individual performance: the talent-oriented path focusing on BIM personnel training and BIM team building, the technology-oriented path emphasizing BIM standard formulation, BIM platform establishment, and BIM application points, and the integrated path combining the talent-oriented path and the technology-oriented path. This paper not only can help the project stakeholders to allocate resources and improve performance for Chinese BIM-supported civil engineering projects but also provides a reference for government-related policies.

This study investigated the association between energy and macronutrient intake and bone health in 63 adolescents of both sexes who participated in volleyball, track and field, or swimming. Bone mineral content (BMC) and density (BMD) of the total body less head (TBLH), lumbar spine (L1-L4), and femoral neck were assessed using DXA. Bone geometry parameters, including cross-sectional area (CSA), cross-sectional moment of inertia (CSMI), and section modulus, were estimated.

Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW) results in substantial environmental, economic and social losses. Alternatively, Building Information Modeling (BIM) was pointed as a promising technology to achieve zero-waste goals. Recent studies showed that BIM use for CDW Management and Assessment (CDWM/A) is still limited and needs a better understanding.

Aim: To compare active upper-limb therapies for children with cerebral palsy using a network meta-analysis.
Method: For this systematic review, five electronic databases were searched up to 2nd September 2024. Outcomes pertaining to improved hand use (Assisting Hand Assessment, AHA), goal attainment (Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, COPM), and self-care were analysed with therapies classified into 15 discrete categories.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by a broad spectrum of molecular alterations that influence clinical outcomes. mutations define one of the most lethal subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), driving resistance to nearly all available treatment modalities, including venetoclax plus azacitidine (VenAza). Yet, the molecular basis of this resistance, beyond affecting transactivation of BCL-2 family genes, has remained elusive.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), parent training programm (PTPs), and their combination as adjunctive interventions to medication in reducing core ADHD symptoms and functional difficulties in children aged 7-11 who had been receiving pharmacological treatment. The goal was to examine whether these psychosocial approaches could enhance treatment outcomes beyond medication alone.
Method: Forty-two mother-child dyads were randomly assigned to one of four groups: (1) medication (M) plus cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), (2) M plus parent training programme (PTP), (3) M plus both CBT and PTP (combined), and (4) M only (control).
