Summary: Enhanced recovery programmes can reduce hospitalisation and medical complications, but implementation can be challenging. The Drinking, Eating, and Mobilising (DrEaMing) bundle simplifies the process and facilitates monitoring, auditing, implementation, and improvement of the recovery programmes.

Summary: As of 11 Jan 2023, the Coronavirus has infected up to 900 million people in China Mainland, which is more than 60% of the population. The pandemic's sudden and unprecedented nature has led to various psycho-somatic issues among the population. Addressing these issues is crucial as they can have severe consequences for individuals' mental and physical health. The lifting of lockdown measures in China creates an opportunity to provide support and assistance to those who have been affected.

Summary: The latest public health emergencies have exposed gaps in health promotion, prevention, and preparedness. The prevalence of existing and new infectious diseases exceeded expectations, and inequities in healthcare access led to varying disease burdens within populations. The COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized the need to prevent chronic diseases, promote healthy lifestyles, and prepare for the long-term effects of new infectious diseases on physical and mental health. A broad approach, involving stakeholders and reallocating resources, is necessary for effective health promotion, prevention, and preparedness.

Summary: The study examines the impact of COVID-19 on environmental sustainability and mineral resource rents in 97 countries. It found that mineral resource rents and population growth can improve environmental sustainability ratings, while an increase in coronavirus cases decreases the ratings. Initially, mineral resources decrease with COVID-19 cases due to strict government policies, but resurge later as economic activities resume. Population growth negatively affects mineral resources. Exacerbated coronavirus cases and population growth are likely to have a negative impact on environmental sustainability and mineral resources.

Summary: Patients with epilepsy have a higher mortality rate compared to the general population, and now it has been shown that patients diagnosed with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures also have a similar death ratio. An accurate diagnosis is important for these patients due to the unexpected mortality rate. The existing data already explains this finding, but more studies have been called for to further investigate.

Summary: This paper studies the lithofacies and spatial distribution of the southern margin of the Junggar Basin in Xinjiang Province, and examines the occurrence strata, gas content, and reservoir properties of shale gas. Through the analysis of samples, the authors discuss the adsorption potential and surface free energy of the shale. The findings suggest that the lithology of the shale samples can be divided into five phases, with the highest development in the black oil shale/shale and gray-black-gray/dolomite mudstone phases. The vertical development continuity of the upper hydrocarbon source rock is better than the middle and lower sections. The semi-deep lake-phase is the most developed, indicating a decreasing trend of thickness from the sedimentary center to surrounding strata. The TOC content is affected by the sedimentary environment, with higher content in deeper waters. The specific surface area is positively correlated with porosity, clay mineral content, and illite/montmorillonite interlayer ratio, and negatively correlated with TOC content. During the adsorption process, the adsorption potential decreases with an increase in equilibrium pressure, while the adsorption space increases. The maximum adsorption space of the sample is larger than that of other coal samples, and the porosity permeability of the sample contributes to its better physical properties.

Summary: This study investigates the controlling effect of pore water on shale gas enrichment by systematically analyzing the characteristics of pore water in Quaternary shale in the Qaidam Basin, China. The study reveals that pore water plays a significant role in the formation, adsorption, flow, and occurrence of shale gas. This research is crucial for enhancing the geological theory of shale gas and guiding shale gas exploration.

Summary: This study measured and modeled the adsorption behavior of CO2 in shale formations, providing baseline values for carbon sequestration planning. The experimental program involved extracting extractable components from shale using supercritical CO2. The results showed that the total organic carbon content of the shale was the primary factor determining CO2 adsorption and provided useful knowledge for future gas extraction and sequestration projects.

Summary: In this study, a mathematical model of shale gas diffusion was established and the evolution history of temperature, pressure, and stratigraphic physical properties was calculated. The study found that there is a significant amount of gas diffusion loss in the Longmaxi Formation shale in the Sichuan Basin, which has important implications for the migration and accumulation of natural gas.

Summary: This study constructs a dynamic adaptive four-parameter discrete grey forecasting model suitable for forecasting CBM production, which is then applied to simulate China's CBM ground production. The model achieves a comprehensive mean relative percentage error of 0.4765% and a grade I simulation accuracy, indicating superior performance compared to other mainstream grey forecasting models.

Summary: Nepal experienced its worst dengue outbreak in 2022, with climate change, urbanization, and increased transportation networks favoring the spread of dengue mosquito vectors. As the monsoon season approaches, a dengue outbreak seems inevitable. Strengthening the national dengue preventive strategy, healthcare planning, and resource allocation are essential to prevent future outbreaks.

Summary: This study provides a comprehensive assessment of emissions from passenger transport in 360 cities in mainland China for 2018. The study identifies the disparities in carbon intensity among different types of cities and examines the factors influencing carbon emissions. The findings suggest that GDP, population, and policy play a significant role in determining total emissions, while carbon intensity is not affected. The study also clusters cities into different groups based on carbon intensity and socioeconomic predictors, providing insights for developing effective strategies for each group.
