Urban parks are vital green spaces where people can participate in various activities. A favorable acoustic-visual environment is crucial for satisfaction, and perception may vary depending on the behavioral state. This study aimed to examine of undertaking different behaviors (sitting, walking, acoustic) explore relationship between acoustic visual perceptions satisfaction. The was conducted using questionnaire surveys (N = 1044) three urban Quanzhou, China. results showed that (1) respondents had perceptions, (2) satisfaction influenced by perception, (3) overall both (4) acoustic, visual, could be predicted via multiple linear regression. Based design strategies this study, a more comfortable activity proposed.

Data were analyzed from February to April 2023. Singleton pregnancies data on diagnosis status included.Moderate, high, extreme days, defined daily maximum temperatures exceeding 75th, 90th, 95th percentiles time series May through September 2007 2018 respectively.

Background The intricate interplay between human well-being and the surrounding environment underscores contemporary discourse. Within this paradigm, comprehensive environmental monitoring holds key to unraveling connections linking population health exposures. advent of satellite remote sensing (SRSM) has revolutionized traditional constraints, particularly limited spatial coverage resolution. This innovation finds profound utility in quantifying land covers air pollution data, casting new light on epidemiological geographical investigations. dynamic application reveals web connecting public health, pollution, built environment. Objective review navigates evolving trajectory SRSM technology, its role addressing geographic issues. discussion hones how recently magnified our understanding relationship pollutant exposure health. Additionally, discourse delves into challenges stemming from shifts urban morphology. Methods Utilizing strategic keywords “SRSM,” “air risk,” “built environment,” an exhaustive search unfolded across prestigious databases including China National Knowledge Network (CNKI), PubMed Web Science. Citespace tool further unveiled interconnections among resultant articles research trends. Results Synthesizing insights a myriad spanning 1988 2023, findings unveil SRMS bridges gaps ground-based through continuous observations, empowering global quality surveillance.

We aimed to elucidate the age-related decline one-leg standing time with eyes closed, an indicator of static balance, and mitigating influence daily walking habits on this Japan. This longitudinal study involved 249 manufacturing workers, including seven females, aged 20-66 years engaged tasks performed at height aircraft spacecraft machinery industry. The participants underwent a test annual health checkups through Kanagawa Health Service Association between 2017 2019. outcome measure was up 30 s. coefficient (β) against aging estimated using two-level multilevel linear regression random intercepts. also β least one hour per day. quadratic spline curve showed almost trend age. significantly decreased age (adjusted = - 0.22; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.31 0.14).

Green space may have a wide range of beneficial health effects, but its association with preterm birth (PTB) remains inconclusive. Therefore, our study aims to investigate the effect green and joint particulate matter (PM) on PTB. Additionally, we seek identify critical susceptibility window. This retrospective included 5,240,828 pregnant women in Guangdong Province from 2014 2018. Due clustering among women, generalized estimating equations were used examine effects PM pollution PTB, by using normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) fraction coverage (FVC) within 500 m 1,000 m. can effectively reduce PTB risk, particularly first trimester. The odds ratio for associated NDVI throughout pregnancy was 0.80 (95% CI: 0.70, 0.92) 0.81 0.93) When accounting high combined low levels had strongest protective effect, especially third On other hand, between FVC similar that helped mitigate risk even areas higher concentrations. Our finding enables us create targeted approaches increase exposure during pregnancy. Furthermore, spaces should be considered factor decision-making process.
