Objectives: Immigrants of Chinese ethnicity and young people (between 18 and 30 years of age) are known to access health services less frequently and may be at greater risk for experiencing unmet health needs. The purpose of this study was to examine the health beliefs, health behaviors, primary care access, and perceived unmet healthcare needs of Chinese young ***: Semi-structured in-depth interviews were carried out with eight Chinese young adults in Vancouver, Canada. Results: A content analysis revealed that these Chinese young adults experienced unmet healthcare needs, did not have a primary care provider, and did not access preventive services. Cultural factors such as strong family ties, filial piety, and the practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine influenced their health behaviors and healthcare access patterns. Conclusion: Chinese young adults share similar issues with other young adults in relation to not having a primary care provider and accessing preventive care but their health beliefs and practices make their needs for care unique from other young adults.

In this study,the possibility of obtaining micro and nano-scaled Co/Ni bi-layered films by use of the electrochemical method was *** electrodeposition process was performed with presence and absence of a uniform external magnetic field up to 1T to examine its influence on structure and morphology of the obtained thin films. Afterwards,each sample was annealed under high magnetic field with strength up to 12 T at 623 K,what allowed compare and determine the changes in morphology and structure,before and after heat *** Co/Ni bi-layered thin films were deposited onto an indium-doped tin oxide(ITO)-coated conducting glass substrate from sulfate baths with boric acid as an *** results show drastic changes in the morphology between macro and nano-scaled films which were strongly affected by an introduction of the magnetic field to the electrodeposition *** annealing process allowed to determine the nucleus transition and showed that under the high temperature treatment it is possible to control the growth mode as well as the phase composition changes.

A 24-year-old healthy man consulted to our center because of typical on-and-off chest-pain and an electrocardiogram showing ST-segment elevation in inferior leads. An urgent coronary angiography showed angiographically normal coronary arteries. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging confirmed acute myocarditis. Although acute myocarditis triggering coronary spasm is an uncommon association, it is important to recognize it, particularly for the management for those patients presenting with ST-segment elevation and suspect myocardial infarction and angiographically normal coronary arteries. The present report highlights the role of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging to identify acute myocarditis as the underlying cause.
