This study demonstrates that disaggregating greenspace is critical for understanding its cardiovascular effects. In a large, nationwide prospective cohort, higher exposure to street-view visible trees was associated with lower cardiovascular disease incidence, while grass and other low-lying greenspace were associated with higher risk.

Zhang et al. Study Street-View Greenspace and Exercise
In this prospective cohort, momentary street-view exposure to trees and grass was inversely associated with PA, while exposure to other greenspace was positively associated. Future research should confirm these results in other populations and explore the mechanisms through which specific greenspace components influence PA.

This study develops an index dubbed the pandemic vulnerability index at city level (PVI-CI) for classifying the pandemic vulnerability levels of cities, grouping them into five vulnerability classes, from very high to very low. It provides critical wisdom needed for urban healthcare policy and resource management.
