“…Low-visibility air pollution restricts residents' commuting behavior, thereby negatively affecting their physical and mental health. Furthermore, large-scale industrial production and expansion in the number of residents increases energy consumption, which generates large amounts of greenhouse gases and exacerbates air pollution at the micro-urban scale [24].…”

“…Specifically, the model classified health levels into two categories: "healthy" and "unhealthy" based on questionnaire responses. In terms of physical health, the study obtained the height and weight of the respondents based on the questionnaire survey and calculated BMI according to the formula weight (kg)/square of height (m 2 ) to evaluate whether residents' BMI was normal according to the range criteria of 18.5-24.0 [24]. Sleep quality was assessed using the question "How is your sleep quality?"…”

Low-visibility air pollution frequently occurs in the major cities of China and affects residents’ physical and mental health. This study, using Gaoyou City as a case study, selected 10 typical residential communities with different locations and types and conducted a questionnaire survey for two consecutive weeks to measure commuting behavior characteristics and health effects among residents in environments with different degrees of air pollution from November to December 2022. Concerning commuting distance, the average straight distance for short-distance commuting was 1.4 km, and the median commuting distance was 13.2 km. In air-polluted environments, residents’ commuting times were mainly concentrated within 1.5 h, with a majority taking 20 min to 30 min. The working and living spaces presented a circular core distribution pattern, with low-visibility air pollution significantly affecting the choice of commuting mode and having an indirect impact on health. The proportion of people who chose bus commuting significantly increased as air pollution changed from mild to moderate, whereas the proportion of people choosing slower commuting, such as walking, significantly decreased. While no significant fluctuations in physical health levels occurred, psychological health levels significantly decreased. In high air pollution environments, residents’ sleep quality, attitudes towards life, emotional states, and other assessed factors exhibited an inverted U-shaped correlation with commuting patterns. Low-visibility air pollution indirectly damaged the health of residents by affecting their commuting patterns, reducing their physical activity intensity and commuting options, and increasing their psychological stress and anxiety.

ObjectivesThe present study aimed to assess influenza vaccine hesitancy and vaccine literacy levels among youth and adults in China, as well as the association between them.MethodsAn online cross-sectional survey was conducted in Mainland China. Participants’ total vaccine literacy and three sub-dimension vaccine literacy (knowledge literacy, competence literacy, and decision-making literacy) were assessed by a validated vaccine literacy scale. Having received influenza vaccination in the past three years or intending to accept it in next influenza season indicates less influenza vaccine hesitancy.ResultsAmong 997 participants, a sub-optimal vaccine literacy was observed, with a mean score of 66.83 ± 10.27. Regression models 1–4 revealed that participants with middle (aOR: 1.431, P=0.039, 95% CI: 1.018~2.010) or high (aOR: 1.651, P=0.006, 95% CI: 1.157~2.354) total vaccine literacy, as well as those with high competence literacy (aOR: 1.533, P=0.017, 95% CI: 1.079~2.180), or high decision-making literacy (aOR: 1.822, P=0.001, 95% CI: 1.261~2.632) were more likely to have been vaccinated against influenza at least once in past three years. However, those with a high knowledge literacy were associated with a lower influenza vaccine rate (aOR: 0.676, P=0.046, 95% CI: 0.460~0.994). Regression models 5–8 revealed that participants with middle (aOR: 1.661, P=0.008, 95% CI: 1.142~2.414) or high total vaccine literacy (aOR: 2.645, P=0.000, 95% CI: 1.774~3.942), as well as those with middle (aOR: 1.703, P=0.005, 95% CI: 1.177~2.464) or high competence literacy (aOR: 2.346, P=0.000, 95% CI: 1.159~3.461), or high decision-making literacy (aOR: 2.294, P=0.000, 95% CI: 1.531~3.436) were more likely to express the willingness to receive the influenza vaccine in the next influenza season.ConclusionThe participants’ influenza vaccine hesitancy was negatively associated with their total vaccine literacy levels and two of the three sub-dimensions: competence literacy and decision-making literacy. Knowledge literacy suggested a positive or no relationship with influenza vaccine hesitancy.
