Introduction: Sarcopenia is a growing concern as a geriatric syndrome associated with various adverse health outcomes. Determining its prevalence and identifying risk factors are essential for effective prevention. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to estimate the prevalence of sarcopen...

Peroxisomes are ubiquitous eukaryotic organelles housing not only many important oxidative metabolic reactions, but also some reductive reactions that are less known. Members of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) superfamily, which are NAD(P)(H)-dependent oxidoreductases, play important r...

Abstract Aims Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) are more vulnerable to intracardiac thrombus than other types of cardiomyopathies, although explicit anticoagulant strategy is not sure. Too aggressive anticoagulation therapy can lead to severe bleeding events. Hence, we want to construct a risk strati...

Arterial stiffening is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, particularly affecting organs with low vascular resistance, such as the brain and kidneys. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the clinical gold standard for arterial stiffness assessment; however, conventional equipment require...

Males and females display dimorphic behaviors that often involve sex-specific locomotor patterns. How the sexually dimorphic locomotion is mediated is poorly understood. In this study, we identify a neuropeptide that oppositely regulates locomotion for efficient sexual behaviors in Drosophila males ...

OBJECTIVES: To explore the health research capacity (HRC) and factors associated with professional and technical personnel (PTP) in a first-class tertiary hospital in northwest China. METHODS: We collected the repeated measurement data from a first-class tertiary hospital in northwest China between ...

High phase accuracy and figure of merit (FOM) of quadrature signals are essential for integrated systems, including quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) communications and multi-input multi-output (MIMO) radar. However, the traditional quadrature oscillators often struggle to meet the stringent req...

In this research, lithium-doped and lithium–nitrogen codoped diamond single crystals were synthesized using a high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) temperature gradient technique. Characterization of the impurities in diamonds was performed by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-...

Abstract Studies in three mouse models of breast cancer identified profound discrepancies between cell autonomous and systemic Akt1 or Akt2 deletion on breast cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis. First, unlike systemic Akt1 deletion, which inhibits metastasis, cell autonomous Akt1 deletion does not....

In this paper, we introduce hemiellipsoid- and inverted hemiellipsoid-modified semiconductor nanowire (NW) optical structures, and present a systematic investigation on light management of the corresponding arrays based on GaAs. It is found that the modification makes well utilization of light scatt...

ABSTRACT Materials possessing long-range ordering of magnetic spins or electric dipoles have been the focus of condensed matter research. Among them, ferri-systems with two sublattices of unequal/non-collinear spins or electric dipoles are expected to combine the properties of ferro- and antiferro-s...

Panax notoginseng is a widely used herb in traditional Chinese medicine renowned for its unique dual functionality in promoting blood circulation and stopping bleeding. However, the specific active components and the molecular mechanisms underlying the seemingly contradictory effects of P. notoginse...

An unprecedented heatwave hit the Yangtze River Basin (YRB) in August 2022. We analyzed changes of anthropogenic CO2 emissions in 8 megacities over lower-middle reaches of the YRB, using a near-real-time gridded daily CO2 emissions dataset. We suggest that the predominant sources of CO2 emissions in...

The relationship between ecosystem services (ES) and urbanization is crucial for sustainable development. Rapid urbanization threatens the natural capital of Dhaka city, affecting the delivery of ES through changes in land use and land cover. We used vertical growth (VG), nighttime light data (NTL),...

Jikenuo 19 was used as experimental material, and six harvest times were set to study the effects of different harvest times on grain quality and gelatinization characteristics, so as to provide reference for the harvest time and quality improvement of waxy maize varieties. The results showed that w...
