In order to improve the comfort of the living environment, the thermal performance and temperature–humidity regulation of the exterior walls of two timber-framed structure buildings is theoretically calculated and experimentally studied in this study. Both of the two buildings are located in Nanjing, China, the hot-summer and cold-winter zone. Then WUFI is used to simulate and predict the changes of temperature, relative humidity, and water content of the two timber-framed structure buildings, to strengthen the theoretical analysis of the thermal and humidity coupling of the external walls, and to propose an optimal design scheme for the insulation and temperature and humidity regulation of the external walls. The main results show that the tested thermal conductivity is basically consistent with the predicted value, which prove that WUFI simulation can effectively predict the thermal insulation performance of the external wall. The two timber-framed structure buildings are both suitable for the cold areas, and the reasonable optimization of the design of the structure is the key to the insulation of the building wall. Timber-framed structure is proved to have good temperature–humidity regulation effect. The moisture content of the two timber-framed structure buildings is stable, and the annual temperature and winter humidity are within the appropriate humidity range, which indicates that the wall design is suitable for Nanjing hot-summer and cold-winter climate zone. Four types of wall structure indoor mold spore germinations are less likely, which is not easy to produce the mold. The above research aims to optimize the design of the energy-saving wall of the timber-framed structure and create a comfortable and healthy living environment.

Abstract Background Patients with hematological malignancies and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients are at risk of developing invasive fungal infections, but the quantitative risk posed by exposure to airborne mold spores in the community has not been well characterized. Methods A single-institution, retrospective cohort study was conducted of pediatric patients treated for hematological malignancies and HSCT recipients between 2014 and 2018. Patients with invasive fungal disease (IFD) due to molds or endemic fungi were identified using published case definitions. Daily airborne mold spore counts were obtained from a local National Allergy Bureau monitoring station and tested for association with IFD cases by zero-inflated Poisson regression. Patients residing outside the region or with symptom onset more than two weeks after admission were excluded from the primary analysis. Results Sixty cases of proven or probable IFD were identified of which 47 cases had symptom onset within 2 weeks of admission and were therefore classified as possible ambulatory onset. The incidence of ambulatory-onset IFD was 1.2 cases per 10,000 patient-days (95% CI, 0.9-1.7). A small excess of ambulatory-onset IFD was seen from July through September during which period spore counts were highest, but this seasonal pattern did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.09). No significant association was found between IFD cases and community mold spore counts over intervals from one to six weeks prior to symptom onset. Conclusions There was no significant association between IFD cases and community airborne mold spore counts among pediatric hematological malignancy and HSCT patients in this region.
