Methods: The subjects were female university students living in the Kinki area. A longitudinal survey was conducted on 67 members in the intervention group, who received the health education, and 52 members in the control group, who did not receive the health education. The primary outcome measures were knowledge of PCC and the subscales of the Health Promotion Lifestyle Profile. Surveys were conducted before, after, and six months after the intervention in the intervention group, and an initial survey and survey six months later were conducted in the control group. Cochran’s Q test, Bonferroni’s multiple comparison test, and McNemar’s test were used to analyze the knowledge of PCC data. The Health Awareness, Nutrition, and Stress Management subscales of the Health Promotion Lifestyle Profile were analyzed by paired t-test, and comparisons between the intervention and control groups were performed using the two-way repeated measures analysis of variance. Results: In the intervention group of 67 people, the number of subjects who answered “correct” for five of the nine items concerning knowledge of PCC increased immediately after the health education (P = 0.006) but decreased for five items from immediately after the health education to six months later (P = 0.043). In addition, the number of respondents who answered “correct” for “low birth weight infants and future lifestyle-related diseases” (P = 0.016) increased after six months compared with before the health education. For the 52 subjects in the control group, there was no change in the number of subjects who answered “correct” for eight out of the nine items after six months. There was also no increase in scores for the Health Promotion Lifestyle Profile after six months for either the intervention or control group. Conclusion: Providing health education about PCC using videos and leaflets to adolescent females was shown to enhance the knowledge of PCC immediately after the education.展开更多

文摘Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate health education using videos and leaflets for preconception care (PCC) awareness among adolescent females up to six months after the health education. Methods: The subjects were female university students living in the Kinki area. A longitudinal survey was conducted on 67 members in the intervention group, who received the health education, and 52 members in the control group, who did not receive the health education. The primary outcome measures were knowledge of PCC and the subscales of the Health Promotion Lifestyle Profile. Surveys were conducted before, after, and six months after the intervention in the intervention group, and an initial survey and survey six months later were conducted in the control group. Cochran’s Q test, Bonferroni’s multiple comparison test, and McNemar’s test were used to analyze the knowledge of PCC data. The Health Awareness, Nutrition, and Stress Management subscales of the Health Promotion Lifestyle Profile were analyzed by paired t-test, and comparisons between the intervention and control groups were performed using the two-way repeated measures analysis of variance. Results: In the intervention group of 67 people, the number of subjects who answered “correct” for five of the nine items concerning knowledge of PCC increased immediately after the health education (P = 0.006) but decreased for five items from immediately after the health education to six months later (P = 0.043). In addition, the number of respondents who answered “correct” for “low birth weight infants and future lifestyle-related diseases” (P = 0.016) increased after six months compared with before the health education. For the 52 subjects in the control group, there was no change in the number of subjects who answered “correct” for eight out of the nine items after six months. There was also no increase in scores for the Health Promotion Lifestyle Profile after six months for either the intervention or control group. Conclusion: Providing health education about PCC using videos and leaflets to adolescent females was shown to enhance the knowledge of PCC immediately after the education.

文摘Multimedia semantic communication has been receiving increasing attention due to its significant enhancement of communication efficiency.Semantic coding,which is oriented towards extracting and encoding the key semantics of video for transmission,is a key aspect in the framework of multimedia semantic communication.In this paper,we propose a facial video semantic coding method with low bitrate based on the temporal continuity of video semantics.At the sender’s end,we selectively transmit facial keypoints and deformation information,allocating distinct bitrates to different keypoints across frames.Compressive techniques involving sampling and quantization are employed to reduce the bitrate while retaining facial key semantic information.At the receiver’s end,a GAN-based generative network is utilized for reconstruction,effectively mitigating block artifacts and buffering problems present in traditional codec algorithms under low bitrates.The performance of the proposed approach is validated on multiple datasets,such as VoxCeleb and TalkingHead-1kH,employing metrics such as LPIPS,DISTS,and AKD for assessment.Experimental results demonstrate significant advantages over traditional codec methods,achieving up to approximately 10-fold bitrate reduction in prolonged,stable head pose scenarios across diverse conversational video settings.
文摘The application of short videos in agricultural scenarios has become a new form of productive force driving agricultural development,injecting new vitality and opportunities into traditional agriculture.These videos leverage the unique expressive logic of the platform by adopting a small entry point and prioritizing dissemination rate.They are strategically planned in terms of content,visuals,and interaction to cater to users needs for relaxation,knowledge acquisition,social sharing,agricultural product marketing,and talent display.Through careful design,full creativity,rich emotion,and the creation of distinct character personalities,these videos deliver positive,entertaining,informative,and opinion-driven agricultural content.The production and operation of agricultural short videos can be effectively optimized by analyzing the characteristics of both popular and less popular videos,and utilizing smart tools and trending topics.
文摘Objectives:Medical students often rely on recreational internet media to relieve the stress caused by immense academic and life pressures,and among these media,short-form videos,which are an emerging digital medium,have gradually become the mainstream choice of students to relieve their stress.However,the addiction caused by their usage has attracted the widespread attention of both academia and society,which is why the purpose of this study is to systematically explore the underlying mechanisms that link perceived stress,entertainment gratification,emotional gratification,short-form video usage intensity,and short-form video addiction based on multiple theoretical frameworks including the Compensatory Internet Use Model(CIU),the Interaction of Person-Affect-Cognition-Execution Model(I-PACE),and the Use and Gratification Theory(UGT).Methods:A hypothetical model with 9 research hypotheses was constructed.Taking medical students from Chi-nese universities as the research subjects,1057 valid responses were collected through an online questionnaire survey,including 358 males and 658 females.Structural equation modelling(SEM)was performed using the AMOS software to test the research hypotheses.Results:(1)Perceived stress positively predicted entertainment gratification and emotional gratification(β=0.72,p<0.001;β=0.61,p<0.001);(2)Entertainment gratifi-cation and emotional gratification positively influenced short-form video usage intensity(β=0.35,p<0.001;β=0.19,p<0.001);(3)Entertainment gratification and emotional gratification positively predicted short-form video addiction(β=0.40,p<0.001;β=0.17,p<0.001);(4)Short-form video usage intensity positively influenced short-form video addiction(β=0.36,p<0.001);and(5)Perceived stress exerted an indirect but positive effect on both short-form video usage intensity and short-form video addiction,mediated by entertainment and emotional gratification(β=0.37,p<0.001;β=0.52,p<0.001).Conclusion:The mechanisms that underlie medical students’short-form video addiction in stressful situations were revealed in this study.It was found that stress enhances medical students’need for entertainment and emotional online compensation,prompting more frequent short-form video usage and ultimately leading to addiction.These results underscore the need to address the stressors faced by medical students.Effective interventions should prioritise stress management strategies and promote healthier alternative coping mechanisms to mitigate the risk of addiction.

文摘Objectives:Short video addiction has emerged as a significant public health issue in recent years,with a growing trend toward severity.However,research on the causes and impacts of short video addiction remains limited,and understanding of the variable“TikTok brain”is still in its infancy.Therefore,based on the Stimulus-Organism-Behavior-Consequence(SOBC)framework,we proposed six research hypotheses and constructed a model to explore the relationships between short video usage intensity,TikTok brain,short video addiction,and decreased attention control.Methods:Given that students are considered a high-risk group for excessive short video use,we collected 1086 valid participants from Chinese student users,including 609 males(56.1%)and 477 females(43.9%),with an average participant age of 19.84 years,to test the hypotheses.Results:(1)Short video usage intensity was positively related to short video addiction,TikTok brain,and decreased attention control;(2)TikTok brain was positively related to short video addiction and decreased attention control;and(3)Short video addiction was positively related to decreased attention control.Conclusions:These findings suggest that although excessive use of short video applications brings negative consequences,users still spend significant amounts of time on these platforms,indicating a need for strict self-regulation of usage time.

文摘Video action recognition(VAR)aims to analyze dynamic behaviors in videos and achieve semantic understanding.VAR faces challenges such as temporal dynamics,action-scene coupling,and the complexity of human interactions.Existing methods can be categorized into motion-level,event-level,and story-level ones based on spatiotemporal granularity.However,single-modal approaches struggle to capture complex behavioral semantics and human factors.Therefore,in recent years,vision-language models(VLMs)have been introduced into this field,providing new research perspectives for VAR.In this paper,we systematically review spatiotemporal hierarchical methods in VAR and explore how the introduction of large models has advanced the field.Additionally,we propose the concept of“Factor”to identify and integrate key information from both visual and textual modalities,enhancing multimodal alignment.We also summarize various multimodal alignment methods and provide in-depth analysis and insights into future research directions.
文摘Objective:The objective of this study is to determine the effect of nurse-led instructional video(NLIV)on anxiety,satisfaction,and recovery among mothers admitted for cesarean section(CS).Materials and Methods:A quasi-experimental design was carried out on the mothers scheduled for CS.Eighty participants were selected by a purposive sampling technique,which were divided(40 participants in each group)into an experimental group and a control group.Nurse-led informational video(NLIV)was shown to the experimental group,and routine care was provided for the control group.Modified hospital anxiety scale(HADS),scale for measuring maternal satisfaction in cesarean birth,and obstetric quality of recovery following cesarean delivery were used to assess anxiety,satisfaction,and recovery.Results:Both the experimental and control groups showed significant reductions in anxiety by the first postintervention day(P<0.001),with the experimental group experiencing a greater mean reduction(mean difference[MD]=4.37)than the control group(MD=3.35)but the intergroup difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).The experimental group reported significantly higher satisfaction scores(175.55±9.42)on the 3rd postoperative day compared to the control group(151.93±14.89;P<0.001).Similarly,the experimental group’s recovery scores(79.90±6.24)were considerably higher than those of the control group(62.45±15.18;P<0.001).On the 3rd postintervention day,satisfaction was significantly associated with age(P<0.001),and recovery with gravidity(P<0.05).Conclusions:NLIV can be used in the preoperative period to reduce anxiety related to CS and to improve satisfaction and recovery after the CS.

文摘Video classification is an important task in video understanding and plays a pivotal role in intelligent monitoring of information content.Most existing methods do not consider the multimodal nature of the video,and the modality fusion approach tends to be too simple,often neglecting modality alignment before fusion.This research introduces a novel dual stream multimodal alignment and fusion network named DMAFNet for classifying short videos.The network uses two unimodal encoder modules to extract features within modalities and exploits a multimodal encoder module to learn interaction between modalities.To solve the modality alignment problem,contrastive learning is introduced between two unimodal encoder modules.Additionally,masked language modeling(MLM)and video text matching(VTM)auxiliary tasks are introduced to improve the interaction between video frames and text modalities through backpropagation of loss functions.Diverse experiments prove the efficiency of DMAFNet in multimodal video classification tasks.Compared with other two mainstream baselines,DMAFNet achieves the best results on the 2022 WeChat Big Data Challenge dataset.

文摘Objective While there is consensus regarding a positive effect of video gaming on dexterity,little is known regarding how much traditional laparoscopic practice can or should be substituted with video gaming.This study was designed to assess the effects of varying the amount of traditional practice in a lap box trainer and video gaming on performance in two fundamentals of laparoscopic surgery core tasks.Methods Undergraduate and medical students were recruited and randomized into one of four groups:a control group,a lap box group,a video game group,and a combined group with 50%of the time allocated to each modality.Performance in the peg transfer and precision cutting tasks was assessed both prior to and following the 6 training sessions.Results Peg transfer performance significantly improved in the lap box group(168.4±70.6 s vs.332.9±178.2 s,p<0.001),video game group(176.7±53.3 s vs.300.0±101.2 s,p<0.001)and combined group(214.2±86.9 s vs.406.8±239.5 s,p=0.002)after training.Similar improvements were also observed in precision cutting performance in the lap box group(413.1±138.4 s vs.614.3±211.4 s,p=0.002),video game group(434.1±150.8 s vs.609.2±233.2 s,p=0.007)and combined group(469.2±185.3 s vs.663.8±296.3 s,p=0.020).When analyzing improvements in performance across three different training groups compared with the control group,we found that both the lap box group(p<0.001)and the combined group(p<0.001)showed better improvement in both tasks,and the video game group had significantly better outcomes in the precision cutting task(p=0.003).Conclusion Traditional lap box training remains the most effective method for improving the performance of simulated laparoscopic surgery.Video games can be encouraged to enhance skills retention and supplement simulated practice outside of a formal training curriculum.
