However, the choice of information sources varies by age and individual habits. With the widespread use of the internet, there are notable differences between younger and older generations in their reliance on the internet versus traditional media sources like newspapers and television. Given the wide age range and diverse backgrounds of nursing students, understanding generational differences in information-gathering methods is important for implementing effective education. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify how nursing students in different age groups obtain social information and to examine media usage trends by age group. Additionally, we aim to use the findings to provide insights into effective information dissemination methods in nursing education. Results: The results showed that nursing students in their teens to forties, regardless of gender, primarily relied on the internet as their main information source, with television playing a secondary role. In contrast, students in their fifties tended to obtain information more often from newspapers and television than from the internet. This highlights an age-related difference in preferred information sources, with older students showing a greater reliance on traditional media. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that nursing students use different information-gathering methods based on their age, suggesting a need to custo-mize information dissemination strategies in nursing education. Digital media may be more effective for younger students, while traditional media or printed materials might better serve older students. Educational institutions should consider these generational differences in media usage and adopt strategies that meet the diverse needs of their student populations.展开更多

Network analysis and network comparison tests were utilized toconstruct and compare the depression-anxiety symptoms networks among sex and age subgroups.RESULTSThe results revealed GAD3 “Excessive worry” and PHQ2 “Sad mood” were the most significant central symptomsin all subgroups, while “Sad mood” had higher strength than “Excessive worry” in the lower age group. In thenetwork comparisons, the female network exhibited tighter connectivity, especially on GAD6 “Irritability” andGAD2 “Uncontrollable worry”, while only PHQ3 “Sleep” and PHQ9 “Suicidal ideation” had differences at thelocal level in the lower age group.CONCLUSIONSeveral interventions targeting excessive worry and sad mood could reduce the risk of depression and anxietysymptoms in the AIS population. Furthermore, specific anxiety symptoms in females, along with sleep disturbancesand suicidal ideation in the lower age group, should be addressed at an early stage to prevent significantdisruptions in mental health trajectories.展开更多

Logit and Tobit models are employed to conduct empirical analysis and it is found that terrace abandonment increases sequentially among the new, middle, and old generations, confirming that intergenerational differences significantly influence whether farmers abandon terraces and the terrace abandonment scale. Village characteristics and government subsidies significantly influence farmers' terrace abandonment. An increase in the number of migrant workers in the village increases terrace abandonment among new and middle generation farmers, whereas an increase in the distance from the village to the county significantly increases terrace abandonment among old generation farmers. An increase in the village's total population significantly reduces terrace abandonment among new generation farmers. An increase in government subsidies significantly reduces terrace abandonment among middle and old generation farmers. The impact of intergenerational differences on terrace abandonment is more pronounced in low-altitude areas. To reduce terrace abandonment, it is necessary to promote terrace transfer, develop characteristic agriculture, improve terrace farming subsidies, and propose targeted strategies for the different generations of farmers.展开更多

Here by conducting an inter-model Empirical Orthogonal Function(EOF) analysis as well as an ocean mixed-layer heat budget, we find that the first two modes of inter-model difference in the SST warming pattern projected by 30 CMIP6 models, explaining more than three-quarters of the total inter-model variance, are both tied to different cloud–radiation feedbacks. The EOF1 mode that captures the different magnitudes of El Ni?o-like warming as well as the largest inter-model variance in the far eastern equatorial Pacific, is likely driven by highly diverse cloud–radiation feedbacks in the east and, to a lesser extent, by differing changes in the oceanic vertical temperature gradient. The EOF2 mode that mainly represents the different magnitudes of SST warming in the western equatorial Pacific, is associated with differing levels of negative cloud–radiation feedback over the central equatorial Pacific through a dynamic air–sea coupled process involving both the Bjerknes feedback and the wind–evaporation–SST feedback.Considering in isolation the robust common model bias of a weak negative cloud–radiation feedback over the central equatorial Pacific, the projected SST warming in the western equatorial Pacific is likely to be smaller than the multi-model ensemble mean, thereby presenting a more weakeened zonal SST gradient than expected, implying the potential for more severe climate extremes under global warming.展开更多

Additionally, we aim to use the findings to provide insights into effective information dissemination methods in nursing education. Results: The results showed that nursing students in their teens to forties, regardless of gender, primarily relied on the internet as their main information source, with television playing a secondary role. In contrast, students in their fifties tended to obtain information more often from newspapers and television than from the internet. This highlights an age-related difference in preferred information sources, with older students showing a greater reliance on traditional media.

文摘Objectives:Suicidal ideation is a strong predictor of suicide deaths,which refers to the consideration or desire to give up one's own life.Left-behind children in rural China are more vulnerable to psychological problems and suicidal ideation compared to their non-left-behind peers.The aim of the current study was to examine two potential protective factors,negotiable fate belief and coping self-efficacy,and to test the mediating role of coping self-efficacy in the relationship between negotiable fate belief and suicidal ideation.We also analyzed gender differences in this mediation model.Methods:Across-sectional survey was conducted in rural areas ofChina.A sample of 526 left-behind children(285 males,54.18%;241 females,45.82%;Meanage=13.29 years,SD=0.97 years)was recruited to complete the Negotiable Fate Belief Scale,Coping Self-Efficacy Scale,and the Positive and Negative Suicide Ideation Inventory-Negative Scale.We used structural equation modeling to test the mediation model and multigroup analysis to test the moderation effect of gender.Results:Negotiable fate belief is negatively correlated with suicidal ideation(r=-0.13,p<0.01).Moreover,coping self-efficacy mediates the relationship between negotiable fate belief and suicidal ideation(β=-0.06,95%confidence interval(CI)[-0.12,-0.02]),accounting for 35.29%of the total effect.Finally,the mediating effect of coping self-efficacy was found to be significant only for female left-behind children(male:95%CI[-0.09,0.07];female:95%CI[-0.16,-0.01]).For female left-behind children,the mediating effect was complete,with a coefficient of-0.06,accounting for 85.71%of the total effect.Conclusions:The relationship between negotiable fate belief and suicidal ideation among rural left-behind children is mediated by coping self-efficacy,and this mediation effect was moderated by gender.This study provides a theoretical explanation for how cultivating the belief in negotiable fate and coping self-efficacy is effective for reducing suicidal ideation of rural left-behind children.

文摘The obesity epidemic continues to challenge global cardiovascular(CV)health,but not all obesity is equal.Emerging evidence underscores that distinct obesity phenotypes—particularly metabolically healthy vs unhealthy profiles—confer differential CV risks.Recent large-scale studies have revealed that even metabol-ically healthy obesity(MHO)is associated with an increased risk of adverse CV events,particularly in the context of socioeconomic disadvantage.Central is the role of chronic low-grade inflammation,termed“metaflammation”,which can persist even in the absence of overt metabolic syndrome and is shaped by both gender and fat distribution.Epicardial and visceral adiposity contribute to this pro-inflammatory state and are strongly associated with conditions such as heart failure and atrial fibrillation.Notably,aging and hormonal changes,particularly in women,may destabilize MHO status,increasing CV vulnerability over time.This overview calls for a paradigm shift in cardiometabolic care,moving beyond anthropometric parameters toward a more refined assessment that incorporate inflammatory biomarkers,fat distribution and sex-specific factors.Recognizing these underlying biological and phenotypic differences enables more accurate CV risk stratification and supports the development of precision-based therapeutic strategies.Ultimately,understanding not just who is at risk,but why,is essential to improving prevention and outcomes across diverse populations facing the bur-den of obesity.
文摘Optic neuritis(ON)is a focal inflammatory demyelinating disorder of the optic nerve.Although classically regarded as a sentinel event for multiple sclerosis(MS),ON also occurs in antibody-mediated entities such as aquaporin-4-IgGpositive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder(AQP4-NMOSD)and myelinoligodendrocyte-glycoprotein-antibody disease.In all these settings biological sex is a pivotal determinant of susceptibility,clinical expression,treatment response and long-term outcome.Data synthesized from an extensive literature analysis utilizing PubMed,Scopus,and Web of Science in this review shows that women experience ON far more frequently–with female-to-male ratios ranging from 3:1 in MS to almost 9:1 in AQP4-NMOSD–yet men,when affected,tend to accumulate irreversible neuro-axonal loss more rapidly.Sex-specific patterns arise at every biological stratum:X-linked gene dosage,epigenetic regulation,hormonal cycles from puberty through menopause,metabolic co-modifiers such as obesity and vitamin-D status,and psychosocial forces that influence healthcare utilization.By weaving these elements into an expanded narrative,the present review provides a detailed resource for clinicians and investigators aiming at gender-tailored management of ON.

文摘Clarify the mechanical properties of different laminations and the fracture mechanism of continental shale under in-situ stress can provide theoretical basis for more comprehensive evaluation of the fracability of continental shale oil reservoir.The Chang 72continental shale was used to investigate the mechanical properties of laminations and the effect of natural structure on the crack propagation of the shale.The XRD and thin section tests show that the laminations contain two types:bright sandy lamination with void structure and dark muddy lamination with layer structure.The real-time CT uniaxial compression tests were conducted to investigate the differences of mechanical properties between the muddy lamination and sandy lamination.It found that the uniaxial compression strength and elastic modulus of the sandy lamination are higher,forming a simple crack with large opening,and the Poisson's ratio of the muddy lamination is large,forming obvious lateral deformation and more secondary cracks.On this basis,the cuboid-shaped continental shale specimens were tested under true triaxial compression conditions to study the effect of laminations and interface cracks on crack propagation combining AE and CT techniques.It found that nascent cracks connected laminations and interface cracks to form fracture network under appropriate loading condition,tensile cracks developed in sandy lamination and shear cracks occurred in muddy lamination because of deformation dissonance and brittleness index differences,and more secondary cracks formed in muddy lamination with smaller fracture toughness.Moreover,the combination relationships between nascent and natural cracks mainly conclude direct penetration and deflection,which is affected by the filling degree and morphology of interface cracks and the relationship of lamination types.These conclusions show that laminar continental shale is conducive to forming complex fracture network,which can provide a theoretical basis for the proposal of indicators and methods for fracability evaluation.
文摘探地雷达(Ground Penetrating Radar,GPR)正演模拟是解译和反演实测GPR数据的基础。然而,使用传统时域有限差分方法(Finite Difference Time Domain,FDTD)实现GPR正演模拟时,时间步长受到Courant Friedrichs Lewy(CFL)条件严格限制,存在运算耗时较长的问题,为此,提出使用局部一维隐式时域有限差分方法(Locally One Dimension Finite Difference Time Domain,LOD-FDTD)实现二维GPR正演模拟。LOD-FDTD使用Crank-Nicolson方法从FDTD中推导得到,该方法的时间步长不受CFL条件限制,能够使用大时间步快速完成GPR正演模拟。对均质模型以及含多层界面和多个地质体的复杂地质模型进行GPR正演模拟实验,结果表明,在占用内存空间小于120MB的情况下,LOD-FDTD方法能够使用FDTD最大时间步长2倍以上的时间步长,有效地计算雷达波在地下空间的传播过程,并获得不同地质体的GPR响应信号,证明了本文方法具有占用内存适中、运算速度快、求解精度好等优点,较传统FDTD能够快速、高效地实现GPR正演模拟。
