Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic posed a huge challenge to the education systems worldwide, forcing many countries provisionally close educational institutions and deliver courses fully online. aim of this study was explore quality online in China for international medical nursing students from low- middle-income (LMICs) as well factors that influenced their satisfaction with during pandemic. Methods Questionnaires were developed administered 316 120 teachers at university China....
Abstract Objective The objective of the study is to report performance noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) in twin pregnancies after treatment assisted reproductive technology (ART). Method In two years period, 565 pregnant women with ART were prospectively tested by NIPT for screening trisomy 21 (T21), 18 (T18), and 13 (T13) sequencing cell‐free DNA maternal plasma. Positive results confirmed karyotyping, while negative interviewed delivery. Pregnant decision based on confirmation was...
Abstract Background In recent years, the number of students from Asian and African countries to study medicine in China has been on rise. This investigated migration intentions China-educated international medical (IMSs) after graduation factors that influence intentions. Methods The cross-sectional, questionnaire-based involved IMSs 2nd 6th year degree course at Xuzhou Medical University, China, conducted April July 2018. self-administrated questionnaire asked questions students’...
Exploring the correlations between ecosystem service value (ESV) and landscape ecological risk driving factors of their spatial variations is crucial for maintaining regional security promoting sustainable human well-being. We carried out a grid resampling size 5 km×5 km assessment units Jilin Pro-vince based on remote sensing monitoring data land use in 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, 2020. quantitatively evaluated ESV, analyzed spatial-temporal variations. Employing bivariate autocorrelation...
Periconceptional maternal folate levels may alter DNA methylation patterns and health outcomes in offspring. We hypothesized that folic acid supplementation alters fetal neural development through the brain. Twenty-eight rats were randomly assigned to four groups: three groups of female fed folate-normal, folate-deficient or folate-supplemented diets from seven days before mating delivery. In another group, diet short-period group was a folate-normal diet, except for 10 (begin mating) when...
Abstract Background Traditional fixed thresholds for oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) results may inadequately prevent adverse pregnancy outcomes in twin pregnancies. This study explores latent OGTT patterns and their association with outcomes. Methods retrospectively analyzed 2644 pregnancies using mixture models to identify level (high, HG; medium, MG; low, LG) relationship maternal/neonatal characteristics, gestational age at delivery, Results Three distinct patterns, HG, MG, LG were...
Abstract Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common chronic diseases and associated with Alzheimer's (AD). Both docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) play essential roles in lipid metabolism inhibition amyloid‐β (Aβ) accumulation. We aimed to explore possible association between cerebral Aβ deposition development NAFLD investigate effect DHA combined MCTs on delaying progression To this end, 40 three‐month‐old APP/PS1 male mice were randomly...
Background: Chinese-Australian adolescents face unique academic and cultural challenges that may impact their lifestyle psychological well-being. Physical activity, screen time, sleep are known to influence However, research on the adherence 24-Hour Movement Guidelines among remains limited awaits further investigation. Objective: This study hypothesized a significant positive association between for physical sleep, well-being of adolescents. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was...
Elevated intra-abdominal pressure can engender a spectrum of adverse physiological repercussions in patients, but further research is needed to ascertain whether elevated exerts significant effects on renal function. The study used MIMIC-IV database identify critical patients with IAP monitoring. Patients were categorized into Low-IAP and High-IAP groups based the results restricted cubic splines curve, HR = 1 set at 16 mmHg. primary outcome was occurrence AKI within 72 h ICU admission,...
Abstract Background As the number of Asian and African students studying medicine in China increases, it is imperative to evaluate educational experiences these international medical (IMSs). This study was intended investigate opinions China-educated IMSs towards curriculum impact Chinese language capability on their clinical studies. Methods A self-administered questionnaire circulated final-year during graduation time from May 2019 July 4 universities China. The asked assess quality...
Abstract Background The outbreak of COVID-19 has led to increased workload and infection risks among medical staff. This situation may influence current health-related students’ decision on the choices their future careers. Hence, this study investigated impact career intentions. Methods is a cross-sectional observational that included students from three universities between October 2020 January 2021. questionnaire was divided into two main sections: Section 1, which comprised basic...
This study explored the specialty preferences of China-educated international medical students (IMSs), who are mainly from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) constitute a potential workforce both for their home foreign countries, influence migration intentions on preferences.A cross-sectional, questionnaire-based survey was conducted at 5 universities in China. The questionnaire link distributed electronically among IMSs via emails. enquired IMSs' demographic information, preferences....
The effect of maternal folate status on the fetal central nervous system (CNS) is well recognized, while evidence emerging that such an association also exists between fathers and offspring. biological functions telomeres telomerase are related to neural cell proliferation apoptosis. study aimed investigate parental deficiency apoptosis stem cells (NSCs) in neonatal offspring role this effect. In study, rats were divided into four groups: folate-deficient paternal diet (D-D) group;...
Abstract China hosts around 68,000 international medical students (IMSs) primarily from lower income countries in Africa and Asia, who have the potential to contribute services. Understanding how these IMSs make career decisions can help better address issue of global workforce shortage. However, such research is limited. Our study aims explore decision-making process China-educated IMSs, challenges they experienced strategies employed. In this exploratory qualitative study, we conducted...
