‘There’s a will, but not a way’: Norwegian GPs’ experiences of collaboration with child welfare services – a grounded theory study

BackgroundAdverse childhood experiences can have immediate effects on a child’s wellbeing and health and may also result in disorders and illness in adult life. General practitioners are in a good position to identify and support vulnerable children and parents and to collaborate with other agencies such as child welfare services. There is a need for better integration of relevant services. The aim of this study is to explore GPs’ experiences of the collaboration process with child welfare services.MethodThis is a qualitative grounded theory study, with data consisting of ten semi-structured interviews with general practitioners across Norway.ResultsThe doctors’ main concern was: ‘There’s a will, but not a way’. Three subordinate stages of the collaboration process were identified: (I) Familiar territory, with a whole-person approach to care by the doctor. (II) Unfamiliar territory, when child welfare becomes involved. Here, a one-way window of information and a closed door to dialogue perpetuate the doctors’ lack of knowledge about child welfare services and uncertainty about what is happening to their patients. (III) Fragmented territory, where doctors experience lost opportunities to help and missing pieces in the patient’s history.ConclusionGeneral practitioners are willing to contribute to a collaborative process with child welfare, but this is hampered by factors such as poor information flow and opportunities for dialogue, and limited knowledge of the partner. This implies lost opportunities for doctors to help families and contribute their knowledge and potential actions to a child welfare case. It can also impede whole-person care and lead to fragmentation of patient pathways. To counteract this, electronic two-way communication could enable a collaborative process and relationships that enhance coordination between the parties. Making space for all parties and their individual roles was considered important to create a positive collaborative environment.

Transitions Pop-ups: Co-designing client-centred support for disabled youth transitioning to adult life.

When transitioning to adulthood, youth with disabilities and their families face many service gaps. Successful inter-agency collaborations can promote family-centred, inclusive transition support amenable to personal choice and health conditions. This paper reports the 3-year co-design process of an innovative transition service that links a pediatric hospital and adult service agencies and addresses key areas of transition preparedness with joint accountability. A team of pediatric rehabilitation professionals, adult service providers, young adults with disabilities and their families, and researchers engaged in a co-design process over three years. Following a design thinking (DT) framework, the team went through an iterative process of Empathize. Define, Ideation, Prototyping, and Testing phases. The trial-and-error process allowed for deeper reflection and an opportunity to pivot the design. The co-design yielded Transitions Pop-ups, a nimble service model that can "pop up" at critical times and places to meet clients' urgent and emergent transition-related needs. Two pilot sessions were conducted at the testing phase with adult service agencies. The final model included five key elements: (1) community partnership; (2) targeted information sharing; (3) peer mentoring; (4) action (on-the-spot completion of a key transition task/activity such as submitting an adult funding application); and (5) warm handover. The co-design process highlighted the importance of open communication and iterative prototype testing as a means for trialing new ideas and clarifying the intent of the project. The DT framework optimally facilitated the co-development of a contextually relevant and sustainable service model for pediatric rehabilitation clients and families.

Measuring quality-adjusted price changes on the mobile market: a case study from Hungary

PurposeThis study aims to estimate the quality-adjusted changes in residential mobile consumer prices by controlling for the changes in the relevant service characteristics and quality, in a case study on Hungary between 2015 and 2021; compare the results with changes measured by the traditionally calculated official telecommunications price index of the Statistical Office; and discuss separating the hedonic price changes from the effect of a specific government intervention that occurred in Hungary, namely, the significant reduction in the value added tax rate (VAT) levied on internet services.Design/methodology/approachSince the price of commercial mobile offers does not directly reflect the continuous improvements in service characteristics and functionalities over time, the price changes need to be adjusted for changes in quality. The authors use hedonic regression analysis to address this issue.FindingsThe results show significant hedonic price changes over the observed seven-year period of over 30%, which turns out to be primarily driven by the significant developments in the comprising service characteristics and not the VAT policy change.Originality/valueThis paper contributes to the literature on hedonic price analyses on complex telecommunications service plans and enhances this methodology by using weights and analysing the content-related features of the mobile packages.

The influence of public administration science paradigm shift in its realization good governance

The emergence of the New Public Service is an approach in public administration that addresses the shortcomings of both the Old Public Administration (OPA) and New Public Management (NPM), particularly in the context of cultural change and good governance. Old Public Administration (OPA) focuses more on bureaucracy oriented towards rules and procedures but is less responsive to cultural changes and societal needs. On the other hand, New Public Management (NPM) emphasizes the use of business management principles in public administration but pays less attention to cultural changes and good governance aspects. In the context of cultural change, the New Public Service offers a more adaptive and responsive approach. This approach recognizes the importance of understanding and adapting to cultural changes within society to provide relevant and effective public services. Additionally, the New Public Service is closely related to good governance. This approach emphasizes values such as fairness, rule of law, public participation, and transparency. By incorporating the principles of good governance, the New Public Service strives to build a sound, efficient, and accountable governance system. In summary, the emergence of the New Public Service is a response to the shortcomings of OPA and NPM in addressing cultural changes and in the context of good governance. This approach combines adaptability to cultural changes with the application of good governance principles to ensure that public services provided by the government are responsive, fair, and transparent.

Development of a complex Interdisciplinary Nurse-coordinated SELf-MAnagement (INSELMA) intervention for patients with inflammatory arthritis

BackgroundApart from a consistent focus on treating inflammation, patients with inflammatory arthritis (IA) report a range of unmet needs. Many experience not only residual symptoms but also various other physical, psychological, and social effects. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a complex Interdisciplinary Nurse-coordinated self-management (INSELMA) intervention for patients with IA, as an add-on treatment to usual outpatient care for those with substantial disease impact.MethodsThis study followed the British Medical Research Council’s updated framework for developing complex interventions. The process encompassed the following steps: (1) The evidence base was identified; (2) workshops were held, involving 38 relevant stakeholders (managers, physicians, nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, social workers, psychologists from hospitals and municipalities, and two patient research partners), to discuss and further develop the preliminary ideas; (3) relevant theories were identified (i.e., self-efficacy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and health literacy); (4) the intervention was modeled and remodeled and (5) the results, describing the final INSELMA intervention and outcomes.ResultsThe INSELMA intervention encompasses an initial biopsychosocial assessment, which is performed by a rheumatology nurse. Then, activities that the participant wishes to improve are identified and goals are set. The nurse refers the participant to a multidisciplinary team and coordinates their support and relevant services in the participant’s municipality. In addition, the health professionals have the opportunity to hold two interdisciplinary conferences during the intervention period. The participant and the health professionals work to achieve the set goals during a 6-month period, which ends with a status assessment and a discussion of further needs. The INSELMA intervention aims to increase self-management, reduce the impact of IA (e.g., pain, fatigue, sleep problems, and absenteeism), and increase self-efficacy, quality of life, mental well-being, work ability, and physical activity.ConclusionsThe development of the INSELMA intervention involved stakeholders from two Danish rheumatology outpatient clinics, patient research partners and municipalities. We believe that we have identified important mechanisms to increase the self-management and quality of life of people with IA and to decrease the disease impact in those who are substantially affected. The health professionals involved have developed competences in delivering the intervention and it is ready to be tested in a feasibility study.

Recovery of the reproductive functional diversity of edible fruit plant assemblages along the regeneration of a Caatinga dry forest

The ability of dry forests to deliver ecosystem services of both local and global relevance depends on the capacity of those forests to recover from constant disturbances in human-modified landscapes. Here we examine the effects posed by biomass, chronic human disturbances and aridity on the recovery of reproductive functional diversity by edible fruit plant assemblages following slash-and-burn agriculture in a Caatinga dry forest, in northeastern Brazil. The edible fruit plant assemblages were described across 24 forest stands, including regenerating stands of varying age (4 to 50 yr old) and old-growth stands, adopting a large set of reproductive traits as floral sizes, reproductive systems, and pollination systems. Such a chronosequence covered a gradient relative to aboveground biomass, aridity, and chronic anthropogenic disturbances (CAD). We observed that edible fruit plant assemblages across both regenerating and old-growth forest stands exhibited similar taxonomic diversity scores. This pattern is also figured in the recovery of reproductive traits, which is relatively fast as regenerating forest scores are generally similar or higher to those in old-growth forests. Generally, regenerating forest stands support more specialized reproductive traits and strategies than old-growth forest stands [e.g., edible fruit plants with very large flowers (>30 mm), specialized pollination systems, large fruits (>1.5 ≤3.0 mm), and medium-sized seeds (>0.6 ≤1.5 cm). However, the functional diversity of specialist reproductive traits decreased with increases in the levels of biomass and aridity, isolated, but was also impacted by the interactive effect. Considering the effects of biomass, CAD or aridity individually, we observed that biomass itself was responsible for most of the effects (42.8%), while 52.3% of the reproductive traits were negatively affected by CAD or aridity, which seems to be a major force against the recovery.

Occupational Therapy’s Role within the Middle and High School Settings in the United States

ABSTRACT There is a need for occupational therapy (OT) in the middle and high school settings, yet the role practitioners (OTPs) play in these settings is not clearly defined. School-based OT is in alignment with the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework (OTPF) which recognizes health is supported and maintained when clients are able to engage in their home, school, workplace, and community (American Occupational Therapy Association, 2020). OTPs serving students in the middle and high school settings ensure successful engagement while at school by addressing not only the occupations specific to education but also by addressing the factors that disrupt or empower these occupations American Occupational Therapy Association (2020). Evidence suggests OTPs are struggling to provide relevant service due to limited clarity of their role . A scoping review was conducted to describe the role of American-based OT in the middle and high school settings, identify barriers that affect practitioners, and provide practitioners with information about the role of the OT. Researchers utilized Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses-Scoping Review extension guidelines. Inclusion criteria included were articles published in English, peer-reviewed journals, within the past twenty years and within the scope of OT practice. A total of 1,107 records were identified of which 24 articles were included. Three themes emerged: 1. specific interventions used in middle and high school settings such as transition readiness, social participation, fine motor/handwriting, assistive technology, literacy participation, and life skills; 2. barriers to service delivery; 3. and the need for advocacy. More research is needed to develop conclusive evidence relating to the current practices of occupational therapy in the middle and high school settings.

Economic Philosophy as the Existence of the 5.0 Era Development in Sharia and Conventional Banking

With digital transformation and progress in technology, the 5.0 era has a huge impact on the industry of Islamic and conventional banking. Understanding the existence of Islamic and conventional banking in the 5.0 era relies heavily on economic philosophy. This study aims to understand the role of economic philosophy in maintaining and developing Islamic and conventional banking in the 5.0 era. This study used a descriptive analysis approach, and the data were collected from literature and other relevant sources. Conventional banking, on the other hand, relies on the philosophy of economy neoclassical, which focuses on the development products and services. Islamic and conventional banking are influenced by progress technology and digital transformation in the 5.0 era. Application mobile banking, digital payments, data analytics, artificial intelligence, and blockchain technology are several examples of very important technology or facing challenges and exploiting opportunities in this era. However, in the era of 5.0, economic philosophy is also challenging to apply in Islamic and conventional banking. Conventional banking can notice the difference between the social and financial aspects, but Sharia banking must consider current principles to integrate technology. Sharia and conventional banking need to keep going and develop relevant digital products and services, strengthen regulation and supervision, and guarantee security and privacy of customer’s information. Research results show that good Sharia banking as well conventional are based on economic philosophy. Islamic banking relies on philosophy of Islamic economics, which focuses on principles like prohibition of usury, justice, and sustainable environment.

Privacy and confidentiality in Massachusetts' post-overdose outreach programs: Mixed methods analysis of outreach staff surveys and interviews

BackgroundPublic health-public safety partnerships for post-overdose outreach have emerged in many communities to prevent future overdose events. These efforts often identify overdose survivors through emergency call data and seek to link them with relevant services. The aim of this study was to describe how post-overdose outreach programs in Massachusetts manage the confidentiality of identifiable information and privacy of survivors. MethodsIn 2019, 138 Massachusetts programs completed surveys eliciting responses to questions about program operations. Descriptive statistics were calculated from the closed-ended survey responses. Thirty-eight interviews were conducted among outreach staff members during 2019–2020. Interview transcripts and open-ended survey responses were thematically analyzed using deductive and inductive approaches. ResultsOf programs that completed the survey, 90 % (n = 124/138) reported acting to protect the privacy of survivors following overdose events, and 84 % (n = 114/135) reported implementing a protocol to maintain the confidentiality of personal information. Interviews with outreach team members indicated substantial variation in practice. Outreach programs regularly employed discretion in determining actions in the field, sometimes undermining survivor privacy and confidentiality (e.g., by disclosing the overdose event to family members). Programs aiming to prioritize privacy and confidentiality attempted to make initial contact with survivors by phone, limited or concealed materials left behind when no one was home, and/or limited the number of contact attempts. ConclusionsDespite the establishment of privacy and confidentiality protocols within most post-overdose outreach programs, application of these procedures was varied, discretionary, and at times viewed by staff as competing with engagement efforts. Individual outreach overdose teams should prioritize privacy and confidentiality during outreach to protect overdose survivors from undesired exposure. In addition to individual program changes, access to overdose survivor information could be changed across all programs to bolster privacy and confidentiality protocols. For example, transitioning the management of overdose-related information to non-law enforcement agencies would limit officers’ ability to disseminate such information at their discretion.

Exploring the Construction Path of Characteristic Volunteer Service Teams in “Double First-Class” Universities under the Volunteer Service Framework

Volunteer service, as an important component of the Communist Youth League’s work with youth in “Double First-Class” universities, plays an indispensable role in carrying out ideological and political education and nurturing socialist core values. Currently, volunteer service, primarily driven by social forces, focuses mainly on public welfare-oriented social service projects. The sustainability of volunteer service forces in universities is generally limited, highlighting the urgent need for universities to establish relevant volunteer service systems to meet educational demands. Starting with the definition of characteristic volunteer service teams in “Double First-Class” universities, this article discusses the importance and necessity of building such teams. Additionally, it analyzes and discusses the current status of the construction of characteristic volunteer service teams in “Double First-Class” universities, addressing the related issues. Finally, taking the “Fun Programming into Campus” volunteer service team at Harbin Institute of Technology (Weihai) as an example, the article provides suggestions on how to build characteristic volunteer service teams in “Double First-Class” universities. These suggestions are intended to have a certain reference value for further promoting the comprehensive development of characteristic volunteer service teams in “Double First-Class” universities.

“People are still living with pains of the war”: An assessment of long-term adjustment and consequences of war-related traumatic stress among Liberian refugees

A dearth of empirical research examines the adjustment and wellbeing of long-term refugees in the United States and globally. The goal of this hermeneutic phenomenological needs assessment study was to examine stakeholders’ perceptions of individual, relational, and community-level adjustment in one of the largest Liberian refugee communities in the U.S. Twenty 60–90-minute key informant interviews were conducted and analyzed using hermeneutic phenomenology coding protocols. Six themes emerged in key informants’ perceptions of long-term adjustment and wellbeing among war-affected Liberian refugees: 1) unresolved traumatic stress, 2) substance use, 3) mental health stigma, 4) adverse relational effects, 5) disrupted community dynamics, and 6) lack of access to culturally relevant services. This study expands on refugee and global mental health research by empirically documenting adjustment experiences in a long-term and underrepresented refugee community, which can inform prevention and intervention efforts with communities displaced from war. Clinical, research, and policy implications are also described alongside efforts to enhance support for refugees across their adjustment phases. (162 words)

Topic prevalence and trends of metaverse in healthcare: a bibliometric analysis

Metaverse technology is an advanced form of virtual reality and augmented technologies. It merges the digital world with the real world, thus benefitting healthcare services. Medical informatics is promising in the metaverse. Despite the increasing adoption of the metaverse in commercial applications, a considerable research gap remains in the academic domain, which hinders the comprehensive delineation of research prospects for the metaverse in healthcare. This study employs text-mining methods to investigate the prevalence and trends of the metaverse in healthcare; in particular, more than 34,000 academic articles and news reports are analyzed. Subsequently, the topic prevalence, similarity, and correlation are measured using topic-modeling methods. Based on bibliometric analysis, this study proposes a theoretical framework from the perspectives of knowledge, socialization, digitization, and intelligence. This study provides insights into its application in healthcare via an extensive literature review. The key to promoting the metaverse in healthcare is to perform technological upgrades in computer science, telecommunications, healthcare services, and computational biology. Digitization, virtualization, and hyperconnectivity technologies are crucial in advancing healthcare systems. Realizing their full potential necessitates collective support and concerted effort toward the transformation of relevant service providers, the establishment of a digital economy value system, and the reshaping of social governance and health concepts. The results elucidate the current state of research and offer guidance for the advancement of the metaverse in healthcare.

Governance for health system collaboration: The case of the South-West Queensland Primary Care Alliance, Queensland, Australia.

Background: Internationally, as countries orientate health systems to embrace an integrated, person-centered approach it demands a fundamental shift in the way health services are funded, managed and delivered. Requisite to meeting these challenges given the involvement of multiple organisations, and therefore varying governance arrangements, is strengthening of shared governance with clear and transparent accountability mechanisms, across the health system where initiatives to better integrate care are being implemented. Governance models to achieve this have been attempted in several countries. The best fit for the Australian system is likely to be the Alliance contracting approach.
 The Alliancing concept was derived from the construction industry, where different organisations work collaboratively to ensure achievement of common goal, to complete a project successfully, on time and within budget. They help one another and, where relevant, share resources. Alliance governance is the set of rules which govern an Alliance. At their core, they are centered around governance that ensures the building of collaboration and a ‘whole of system’ approach to service planning and delivery. This is different and challenging and calls on members to focus primarily on their community rather their individual circumstances / organisations.
 Target audience: Policy makers, health system executives, funders, researchers.
 Alliance Partners: Western Queensland Primary Health Network, South West Hospital & Health Services, Health Workforce Queensland, Charleville & Western Areas Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Community Health, Royal Flying Doctor Service, private general practices, and CheckUP.
 What we did: Thematic analysis of a previous SW partnership project, against evidence-based health governance elements for integrated care, to distil learning for the SW Primary Care 5-year plan and conducted a rapid review to identify further evidence base for the alliance governance model in health. This evidence was incorporated into a stakeholder workshop to advise implementation.
 Results/impact: Using an evidence-based governance framework for integrated care, the South-West Primary Care Alliance was developed. An Alliance Charter, outlining the rules of engagement and commitments, has been passed. A governance framework agreed and an implementation plan adopted.
 Learning for international audience: More recent Australian reform documents identify the importance of a regional approach in bringing together all sources of health funding into one coordinated local service delivery approach. In particular, the ongoing difficulty in aligning Australia’s fragmented Commonwealth and State health systems, mean that for our health system this is the most critical reform step. This is more ambitious than co-commissioning or bilateral project-focused funding. It includes all relevant service delivery organisations making formal governance commitments to work together over time in addressing key areas of service gap or duplication.
 Next steps: Three work programs have been identified by the Alliance Leadership Team for implementation 2023-2025. The first of these, workforce, has an implementation plan set for 2023. As part of the implementation the barriers and critical success factors to implementing and sustaining this model of care will be investigated.

РЕГІОНАЛЬНИЙ МАРКЕТИНГОВИЙ ЦИКЛ ТА ІНСТРУМЕНТИ ТЕРИТОРІАЛЬНОГО МАРКЕТИНГУ

In the modern conditions of the development of the regional economy, there is a need to create a system of multi-level marketing-oriented management of the development of the region, which determines the relevance of the study of the regional marketing cycle and the establishment of territorial marketing tools. Determining the stages of the regional marketing cycle, where each subsequent process is based on the previous one, and solving the problem of correct positioning and promotion of the region on the interregional market is the most important factor in ensuring its sustainable development. The purpose of the study is to determine the stages of the regional marketing cycle, their sequence, and establish the tools of territorial marketing. The theoretical and methodological basis of writing the article was the work of domestic and foreign scientists, the study of foreign experience, scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, observation and comparison. In the article, based on the study of foreign experience, observation and comparison of the work of regional marketing institutions in Suceava County (Romania) and marketing structures of the Chernivtsi Region, the main stages of the regional marketing cycle and their sequence are established. Analysis of the activities of regional marketing services contributed to the identification of separate tools of territorial marketing, which include the formation of the region's brand, advertising and communications, exhibition activities, and others. The determination of the stages of the regional marketing cycle and the tools of territorial marketing is a product of practical activity formed by summarizing foreign and domestic experience and using scientific methods, based on specific examples. The sequence of actions of the regional marketing cycle and the definition of territorial marketing tools will contribute to the improvement of activities for the promotion and positioning of the region, goods and services, to increase the efficiency of the relevant services that ensure the vitality of the region and affect the quality of life of the population.

THE ANALYSIS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF GOOD CORPORATE GOVERNANCE IN IMPROVING COMPANY PERFORMANCE AT SUB-HOLDING PT. PELINDO MULTI TERMINAL

Good business governance (GCG) is essential for the sustainability and development of a company in the future. The principles of implementing GCG, which include transparency, accountability, responsibility, independence, and fairness, are fundamental in managing business, especially in state-owned companies as regulated in the Minister of State for State-Owned Enterprises Regulation Number: PER – 01 / MBU/2011 concerning the Implementation of Governance Good Company (Good Corporate governance).PT. Pelindo Multi Terminal is a sub-holding company of PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero), which manages port business entities in multipurpose terminal operations in Indonesia. The implementation of good corporate governance in the company has not been optimal due to a lack of socialization to communicate, educate, and convey information about GCG to employees by position holders.This research uses qualitative research methods with informants from relevant positions, company employees and service users. The research results show a lack of socialization from office holders so that new employees do not understand GCG, the principles of accountability, starting from the delivery of information and financial reports, have not been carried out promptly, and the principles of responsibility in service sessions have not been maximized, indicated by, among other things, limited internet access and providing comfort and satisfaction to customers.

Psychoeducation as an active ingredient for interventions for perinatal depression and anxiety in youth: a mixed-method systematic literature review and lived experience synthesis.

Psychoeducation is a common element in psychological interventions for youth depression and anxiety, but evidence about its use with youth perinatally is limited. This review aims to understand outcomes and mechanisms of psychoeducation for the indicated prevention and treatment of perinatal depression and anxiety in youth. For this review, we synthesised published quantitative and qualitative evidence. Seven databases (ASSIA, Medline, PubMed, PsycINFO, PsycArticles, Scopus and Web of Science) were searched for studies published before 10 August 2021. We also had consultations with a youth advisory group (N = 12). In total, 20 studies met the inclusion criteria. Seven quantitative studies examined multicomponent interventions that included psychoeducation, and one study evaluated psychoeducation as a standalone intervention for postnatal depression. Multicomponent interventions showed significant effects on postnatal depression in two out of six studies, as well as being effective at reducing prenatal anxiety in one study. Standalone psychoeducation for postnatal depression was also effective in one study. Evidence from 12 qualitative studies, corroborated by commentaries from the youth advisory group, suggested that psychoeducation could increase knowledge about symptoms, generate awareness of relevant services and enhance coping. Psychoeducation may be an important foundational ingredient of interventions for perinatal depression and, potentially, anxiety in adolescents and young adults through stimulating help-seeking and self-care.

High-resolution emission inventory of biogenic volatile organic compounds for rapidly urbanizing areas: A case of Shenzhen megacity, China

The effects of volatile organic compounds on urban air quality and the ozone have been widely acknowledged, and the contributions of relevant biogenic sources are currently receiving rising attentions. However, inventories of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) are in fact limited for the environmental management of megacities. In this study, we provided an estimation of BVOC emissions and their spatial characteristics in a typical urbanized area, Shenzhen megacity, China, based on an in-depth vegetation investigation and using remote sensing data. The total BVOC emission in Shenzhen in 2019 was estimated to be 3.84 × 109 g C, of which isoprene contributed to about 24.4%, monoterpenes about 44.4%, sesquiterpenes about 1.9%, and other VOCs (OVOCs) about 29.3%. Metropolitan BVOC emissions exhibited a seasonal pattern with a peak in July and a decline in January. They were mainly derived from the less built-up areas (88.9% of BVOC emissions). Estimated BVOCs comprised around 5.2% of the total municipal VOC emissions in 2019. This percentage may increase as more green spaces emerge and anthropogenic emissions decrease in built-up areas. Furthermore, synergistic effects existed between BVOC emissions and relevant vegetation-based ecosystem services (e.g., air purification, carbon fixation). Greening during urban sprawl should be based on a trade-off between BVOC emissions and ecosystem benefits of urban green spaces. The results suggested that urban greening in Shenzhen, and like other cities as well, need to account for BVOC contributions to ozone. Meanwhile, greening cites should adopt proactive environmental management by using plant species with low BVOC emissions to maintain urban ecosystem services while avoid further degradation to ozone pollution.
