Background Up-to-date evidence about levels and trends in disease and injury incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability (YLDs) is an essential input into global, regional, and national health policies. In the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (GBD 2013), we estimated these quantities f...

Today East Asia harbors many "relict" plant species whose ranges were much larger during the Paleogene-Neogene and earlier. The ecological and climatic conditions suitable for these relict species have not been identified. Here, we map the abundance and distribution patterns of relict species, showi...

Abstract Photocatalytic reduction of CO 2 to value‐added fuel has been considered to be a promising strategy to reduce global warming and shortage of energy. Rational design and synthesis of catalysts to maximumly expose the active sites is the key to activate CO 2 molecules and determine the reacti...

Abstract Ammonium ion batteries are promising for energy storage with the merits of low cost, inherent security, environmental friendliness, and excellent electrochemical properties. Unfortunately, the lack of anode materials restricts their development. Herein, we utilized density functional theory...

Abstract It remains challenging to achieve further breakthroughs in the development of durable bifunctional air cathode electrocatalysts for increasing the cycling life of rechargeable Zn‐air battery (RZAB). Herein, d‐band gap narrowing strategy is proposed to significantly boost the electrocatalyti...

Abstract A subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) prediction system was recently developed using the GFDL Seamless System for Prediction and Earth System Research (SPEAR) global coupled model. Based on 20-yr hindcast results (2000–19), the boreal wintertime (November–April) Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) pr...

The activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) by Fe(II) or Fe(III) for environmental decontamination is severely limited by the low conversion rate from Fe(III) to Fe(II). Here, we found that this puzzling problem could virtually be solved by introducing trace amounts of S2-. With the addition of 0.2 mM...

Constructing biomimetic structure and incorporating bioactive molecules is an effective strategy to achieve a more favorable cell response. To explore the effect of electrospinning (ES) nanofibrous architecture and collagen I (COL I)-incorporated modification on tuning osteoblast response, a resorba...

INTRODUCTION: Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most detrimental heavy metal pollutants, seriously affecting crop production and human health. Nucleobase-ascorbic acid transporters (NAT) are widely present in many living organisms including plants, animals and microbes; however, the role of NAT in plant Cd...

Abstract To explore the physicochemical characters of barley grass, ultra‐micro‐crushing (UMC) technology combined with air drying or freeze drying was carried out. After barley grass was air‐dried at 70°C or freeze‐dried at 15°C, it was grinded for 30, 60, 90, and 120 min using UMC, respectively. A...

Abstract The Einstein Probe (EP) achieved its first detection and localization of a bright X-ray flare, EP240219a, on 2024 February 19, during its commissioning phase. Subsequent targeted searches triggered by the EP240219a alert identified a faint, untriggered gamma-ray burst (GRB) in the archived ...

Background: Circulating tumor cell (CTC)-based patient-derived cells are ideal models for investigating the molecular basis of cancer. However, the rarity and heterogeneity of CTCs as well as the difficulties of primary culture limit their practical application. Establishing efficient in vitro cultu...

High-speed trajectory tracking with real-time processing capability is particularly important in the fields of pilotless automobiles, guidance systems, robotics, and filmmaking. The conventional optical approach to high-speed trajectory tracking involves charge coupled device (CCD) or complementary ...

Nipah virus (NiV) is a zoonotic emergent paramyxovirus that can cause severe encephalitis and respiratory infections in humans, with a high fatality rate ranging from 40% to 75%. Currently, there are no approved human vaccines or antiviral drugs against NiV. Here, we designed a ferritin-based self-a...

BACKGROUND: Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) is a highly contagious disease which is a zoonotic pathogen of significant economic and public health concern. The outbreaks caused by HPAIV H5N1 of Asian origin have caused animal and human disease and mortality in several countries of Sou...

The conventional Fenton-like system (Fe(III)/H2O2) is severely limited by the inferior activity of Fe(III) on H2O2 activation to produce highly active species and the sluggish regeneration rate of Fe(II). This work significantly enhanced the oxidative breakdown of the target organic contaminant bisp...

BACKGROUND: Early childhood is a critical stage of physical and cognitive growth that forms the foundation of future wellbeing. Stunted growth is presented in one of every 4 children worldwide and contributes to developmental impairment and under-five mortality. Better understanding of early growth ...
