BACKGROUND: Recently, in a cross-sectional study of 201 children in Araihazar, Bangladesh, exposure to arsenic (As) in drinking water has been shown to lower the scores on tests that measure children's intellectual function before and after adjustment for sociodemographic features. OBJECTIVES: We in...

We carried out a trans-ancestry genome-wide association and replication study of blood pressure phenotypes among up to 320,251 individuals of East Asian, European and South Asian ancestry. We find genetic variants at 12 new loci to be associated with blood pressure (P = 3.9 × 10−11 to 5.0 × 10−21). ...

Sliding ferroelectricity is a recently observed polarity existing in two-dimensional materials. However, due to the weak polarization and poor electrical insulation in these materials, existing experimental evidences are indirect and mostly based on nanoscale transport properties or piezoresponse fo...

Black phosphorus quantum dots (BPQDs) have been prepared by a high turbulent shear rate generated from a household kitchen blender. A layer-by-layer disintegration mechanism of bulk BP crystals is suggested. As-synthesized BPQDs have shown excellent humidity sensing and photothermal converting prope...

Metal species have a relatively high mobility inside mesoporous silica; thus, it is difficult to introduce the metal precursors into silica mesopores and suppress the migration of metal species during a reduction process. Therefore, until now, the controlled growth of metal nanocrystals in a confine...

Developing highly active and durable electrocatalysts for cost-effective proton-exchange membrane fuel cells is challenging 1-3 . Fe/N-C catalysts are among the most promising alternatives to the platinum group metal catalysts, but their activity and durability still cannot meet the performance crit...

Abstract Vascular repair is considered a key restorative measure to improve long-term outcomes after ischemic stroke. N 6 -methyladenosine (m 6 A), the most prevalent internal modification in eukaryotic mRNAs, functionally mediates vascular repair. However, whether circular RNA SCMH1 (circSCMH1) pro...

Response surface methodology (RSM) based on a central composite design (CCD) was applied to optimise the extraction conditions for flavonoids from fructus sophorae with advantages in terms of resisting flavonoids during the whole process and maximising of extraction yield. Three aglycon forms of the...

Language policies generally seek to establish, regulate, and conform linguistic practices – whether explicit or implicit – that occur within an ‘authorized’ domain. While there are multiple levels (societal, institutional, and interpersonal) at which such policies are enacted (Hornberger & Johns...

Abstract Dual ion batteries (DIBs) have recently attracted ever‐increasing attention owing to the potential advantages of low material cost and good environmental friendliness. However, the potential safety hazards, cost, and environmental concerns mainly resulted from the commonly used nonaqueous o...

Abstract The emerging invisibility schemes mainly adopt transformation optics, scattering cancellation, light diffusion, and metasurface‐based phase restoration techniques. However, those aforementioned invisibility achievements natively depend on the predefined curvature, polarization, frequency, a...

Visible pigmentation phenotypes can be used to explore the regulation of gene expression and the evolution of coat color patterns in animals. Here, we performed whole-genome and RNA sequencing and applied genome-wide association study, comparative population genomics and biological experiments to sh...

Abstract Bactrocera dorsalis, the Oriental fruit fly, is one of the world's most destructive agricultural insect pests and a major impediment to international fresh commodity trade. The genetic structuring of the species across its entire geographic range has never been undertaken, because under a f...

Abstract Angular momentum (AM), one of the most basic physical properties of light, has attracted great interest of the scientific community due to its significant values in high‐capacity optical communication. To realize AM multiplexing and demultiplexing, the methods based on metallic metasurface ...

Layered perovskites A3M2O7 are known to exhibit the so-called hybrid improper ferroelectricity. Despite experimentally confirmed cases (e.g., nonmagnetic M = Ti and Sn), the ferroelectricity in magnetic Ca3Mn2O7 remains a puzzle. Here, the structural, ferroelectric, magnetoelectric, and optical prop...
