“…The horizontal axis shows the performance of DPR before the pandemic, and the vertical axis shows the performance of DPR during the pandemic. The four quadrants are as follows: Quadrant I, in the top-right corner,is the “advantage area”; Quadrant II, in the top-left corner,is the “maintenance area”; Quadrant III, in the bottom-left corner,is the “opportunity area”; Quadrant IV, in the bottom-right corner,is the “improvement area” [ 33 ]. Of most interest are attributes in quadrants III and IV, which indicating that clinicians and decision makers should devote further resources to improve its performance in future.…”

Objective To assess the quality of the doctor-patient relationship (DPR) in China and possible influencing factors during the COVID-19 period from the patient’s perspective. Methods An online survey was carried out nationwide from March 12, 2020 to March 30, 2020 in China via a convenience sampling strategy. Patients who met the inclusion criteria were invited to complete a questionnaire regarding the quality of DPR, including sociodemographic information, the Patient-Doctor Relationship Questionnaire (PDRQ-9), and influencing factors for DPR during the pandemic. Results A total of 1903 patients were included. Our result showed that participants had a higher PDRQ-9 score during the COVID-19 pandemic (4.18 ± 0.51) than that before the COVID-19 pandemic (3.86 ± 0.67). Importance-performance analysis (IPA) revealed that doctor-patient communication, patient satisfaction, consultation time, doctor’s attitude, and medical knowledge were specific aspects that needed to be prioritized to improve the DPR. Multiple linear regression analysis suggested that positive media reports, telemedicine, and national policies had a significantly positive effect on the DPR during the pandemic (P < 0.05). Conclusion In general, the DPR had been improved during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our research found the key points that needed to be prioritized to improve the DPR during the pandemic, which may provide effective suggestions for building a harmonious DPR in the future.

“…To select areas with bad and good air quality, a quantitative method called the semantic differential (SD) was used, which examines the perception assessment of a phenomenon or object [ 51 , 52 ]. This method is often used in research related to the perception of various elements of human surroundings, e.g., the acoustic environment [ 53 ], the color of lighting in gardens [ 54 ], the quality of equipment in the public space [ 55 ], the attractiveness of the landscape [ 56 ], the thermal comfort [ 57 ], the visual contamination of the streets [ 58 ], safety in terms of pedestrian traffic in the cities [ 59 ] or the quality of green areas [ 60 ].…”

Road transport is one among the sources of air pollution in a city, which results in lowering the comfort of life and increases the occurrence of respiratory diseases. The level of pollutants emitted in the city is variable, and it depends on the type and nature of the source and the manner of land development. For this reason, the purpose of the article is an attempt at a spatial (inner) diversification of a city in terms of air quality, using a study of perception and semantic differentials (SD). The research, which covered the period from June to November 2021, was performed in Kielce—the Polish Smart City—among local experts, people well acquainted with the city and knowledgeable about air quality and the impact of pollution on human health. The results allowed the demarcation of areas with the best and the worst parameters in terms of air quality within the city. Verification of the survey was carried out using the ADMS-Roads (Atmospheric Dispersion Modeling System) software for modeling pollution levels and GIS software, using data on road traffic. The verification allowed checking whether the respondents participating in the research accurately evaluated the city space. The modeling proved that within the two selected areas, the pollution level is similar, and it does not exceed the permitted values. This might indicate that in society there is still low awareness of air quality, particularly in terms of knowing the sources of pollutants and their impact on human health, and perception of areas with the best and the worst air quality was the result of an analysis of the manner of land development and its morphology.

“…Central Wuhan was selected as the study area for the following reasons. Firstly, most previous studies on the equity of UGS in specific cities in China have focused on the eastern coastal zone [ 63 , 64 ], which has advantages in terms of geographic location and economic development. In recent years, Wuhan, Zhengzhou, and other cities in central China have been developing rapidly.…”

Urban green spaces (UGSs) provide numerous irreplaceable environmental and social benefits to humankind, but the lack of baseline information makes it difficult to propose a reasonable greening strategy so as to achieve an equitable allocation of community green spaces. This paper divides UGSs into three classes using the spatial design network analysis (sDNA) and quantifies the UGS accessibility of communities in central Wuhan. Based on these results and the Gini coefficient, we analyze the UGS equity of the spatial distribution at the community level, then propose future greening strategies both at the city and community levels. The results show that the railway station and old Wuhan city are the core areas of traffic network strength (TNS). UGSs are evenly distributed in the core areas of TNS, but the number of UGSs in non-core areas is small, and their distribution is relatively uneven, and the number of communities with medium UGS accessibility is the largest, carrying the densest residential population. Most communities perform well in terms of UGS equity, but the UGS equity of 163 communities, covering a population of more than one million, remains to be improved. The method and conclusions of this study will contribute to the future greening policy making of 965 communities in central Wuhan, thus promoting the orderly planning and high-quality construction of community living circles.
