“…aged group include outdoor gyms and gateball courts (as shown in Figure 8), and those for the all ages groups include stadiums and table tennis courts. The diversity of sports facilities for each age group was calculated using Equation (5). The results, presented in Figure 9, indicate variations in the spatial and social equity between age groups.…”

“…The areas, with the most evenly distributed facilities for the old aged group, are mainly located in the center urban, while the areas, with the same for the young and middle-aged group, are mainly located in the outer urban. The diversity of sports facilities for each age group was calculated using Equation (5). The results, presented in Figure 9, indicate variations in the spatial and social equity between age groups.…”

“…The Healthy City initiative within the strategy sets out multiple goals in relation to the living environment, public services, finance, and technology, all of which need multi-level collaborations between government, community, and individuals [4]. A variety of cities and communities throughout China have proposed Healthy City 2030 local development strategies (including Healthy Beijing 2030 and Healthy Guangxi 2030) [5]. Rapid growth of local planning and governance policies and practice has occurred to implement these strategies.…”

An Exploration of Spatial and Social Inequalities of Urban Sports Facilities in Nanning City, China

et al. 2020

Health and well-being have become important dimensions of urban sustainability, particularly in countries with rapid urbanization and aging populations. As such, providing opportunities for physical activity and exercise has become a priority in the planning and governance of Healthy City in these countries. Relatively little research has investigated the provision of sports facilities in developing countries. This paper seeks to address this gap by exploring the spatial and social inequality of sports facilities at the urban scale using Nanning City in South China as a case study. Spatial aggregate analyses, including an allocation index, accessibility, diversity, and geographically weighted regression, were applied to mixed data sets from primary and secondary sources from 2018. The results confirmed a strong inequality of sports facilities provision across the study area and between age groups. This study suggests that the reduction of inequality and the improvement of equity and social justice should consider the spatial and social matches between demand and supply, through increasing sports facilities investment intensity and road network density.

With the progress of science and technology and the improvement of people‘s living standards, the performance of traditional materials can no longer fully meet the needs of social development. Graphitic phase carbon nitride (g‐C3N4), as a new type of nanomaterial, has good properties. Its unique graphite like structure and stable thermodynamic characteristics have led an increasing number of researchers to explore its diverse functions and use this as a basis to develop related energy and products for applications in various fields. Among them, applications in the field of medicine health have become popular in recent years. Therefore, this review summarizes the synthesis methods of g‐C3N4 and its composites, as well as their applications in food, medicine, environmental monitoring and disease treatment, in the hope of providing references and basis for further expanding the applications of g‐C3N4 in large health areas.

Opportunistic screening for osteoporosis can be performed using low‐dose computed tomography (LDCT) imaging obtained for other clinical indications. In this study we explored the CT‐derived bone mineral density (BMD) and prevalence of osteoporosis from thoracic LDCT in a large population cohort of Chinese men and women. A total of 69,095 adults (40,733 men and 28,362 women) received a thoracic LDCT scan for the purpose of lung cancer screening between 2018 and 2019, and data were obtained for analysis from the China Biobank Project, a prospective nationwide multicenter population study. Lumbar spine (L1–L2) trabecular volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) was derived from these scans using quantitative computed tomography (QCT) software and the American College of Radiology QCT diagnostic criteria for osteoporosis were applied. Geographic regional differences in the prevalence of osteoporosis were assessed and the age‐standardized, population prevalence of osteoporosis in Chinese men and women was estimated from the 2010 China census. The prevalence of osteoporosis by QCT for the Chinese population aged >50 years was 29.0% for women and 13.5% for men, equating to 49.0 million and 22.8 million, respectively. In women, this rate is comparable to estimates from dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA), but in men, the prevalence is double. Prevalence varied geographically across China, with higher rates in the southwest and lower rates in the northeast. Trabecular vBMD decreased with age in both men and women. Women had higher peak trabecular vBMD (185.4 mg/cm3) than men (176.6 mg/cm3) at age 30 to 34 years, but older women had lower trabecular vBMD (62.4 mg/cm3) than men (92.1 mg/cm3) at age 80 years. We show that LDCT‐based opportunistic screening could identify large numbers of patients with low lumbar vBMD, and that future cohort studies are now required to evaluate the clinical utility of such screening in terms of fracture prevention and supporting national health economic analyses. © 2020 The Authors.
