Independent association of the CHG index with cardiometabolic multimorbidity: real-world evidence from community and clinical datasets
Abstract Background: Cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM) is an increasing public health challenge in aging populations. The cholesterol–high-density lipoprotein–glucose (CHG) index is an emerging metabolic marker, but its association with prevalent CMM has not been sufficiently evaluated across community and hospitalized populations. This study examined the association between CHG and CMM using clinical and China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) data.
Generative AI interaction styles and mental health among college students: a latent profile analysis
Abstract Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is now widely used by college students, but the mental health implications of different interaction patterns remain unclear. Because GenAI can support task-focused, cognitive, and emotionally salient forms of engagement, engagement quality may be more informative than use intensity alone. We used latent profile analysis to identify human–AI interaction styles among 7,029 Chinese college students from six universities.
Safety, accuracy, empathy, reliability, and readability of large language model chatbot responses to public-facing vegetarian and vegan nutrition advice questions: a cross-sectional comparative study
Abstract Background: Publicly accessible large language model (LLM) chatbots are increasingly used to seek nutrition advice. Although vegetarian and vegan nutrition advice is often perceived as low risk, it may involve supplementation, vulnerable life stages, chronic disease, and symptoms that require clinical assessment.
Comprehensive analysis of miRNA expression, secretion profile, and functional network during myogenesis in response to spaceflight
Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators of skeletal muscle development and homeostasis. As secretory factors, previous studies have identified and validated a space flight-associated circulating microRNA (miRNA) signature in response to space flight. However, the muscle-derived miRNAs are not clear. Here, we comprehensively analyzed the variations of miRNA during mouse myoblast myogenesis in response to space flight, including expression and secretion.
Evaluation of the clinical value of heart rate variability in predicting vasovagal syncope
Background Syncope is one of the common clinical symptoms and refers to a sudden and transient loss of consciousness caused by brief, reversible cerebral hypoperfusion, usually accompanied by postural collapse and followed by spontaneous recovery within minutes (1). Based on underlying pathophysiological mechanisms, syncope is generally classified into three major categories: reflex syncope, cardiac syncope, and orthostatic hypotension-related syncope (2).

PnV: An Efficient Parallel Consensus Protocol Integrating Proof and Voting
1. Introduction Blockchain, also referred to as distributed ledger technology, emerged from the cryptocurrency system known as Bitcoin [1]. The ledger is collectively maintained by multiple parties and enables consistent, immutable, and traceable data storage. In recent years, owing to the rapid advancement of blockchain technology, its application has extended to various domains, such as finance [2], education [3], healthcare [4], and logistics [5], among others.

Flexible power generators by Ag2Se thin films with record-high thermoelectric performance - Nature Communications
Abstract Exploring new near-room-temperature thermoelectric materials is significant for replacing current high-cost Bi2Te3. This study highlights the potential of Ag2Se for wearable thermoelectric electronics, addressing the trade-off between performance and flexibility. A record-high ZT of 1.27 at 363 K is achieved in Ag2Se-based thin films with 3.2 at.% Te doping on Se sites, realized by a new concept of doping-induced orientation engineering.

The spatial configuration of local climate zones reveals effects on wayfinding in human walking
PLOS ONE, Sep 2023 The importance of easy wayfinding in complex urban settings has been recognized in spatial planning. Empirical measurement and explicit representation of wayfinding, however, have been limited in deciding spatial configurations. Our study proposed and tested an approach to improving wayfinding by incorporating spatial analysis of urban forms in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Great Bay Area in China.
To Take a Risk or Not? The Effect of Perceived Scarcity on Risky Choices
1. Introduction Scarcity (e.g., money scarcity and time scarcity) can happen to anyone. Perceived scarcity occurs when people feel they have less than they need or they want [1]. Perceived scarcity refers to individual subjective feelings of scarcity with regard to certain tangible resources or intangible resources [2].
Identifying the Impacts of Land‐Use Spatial Patterns on Street‐Network Accessibility Using Geospatial Methods
Analytical framework and study area Using the aforementioned datasets, the street-network accessibility at the city and local levels as well as land-use spatial patterns can be quantified and characterized, and their empirical relationships also can be revealed (Fig. 1). Our analytical framework hypothesis is that land-use spatial patterns affect street-network accessibility and their associations differ across spaces.
Experimental Study on Long-Term Performance of Concrete T-Beam
Abstract : In recent years, long-span concrete bridges that have been built frequently expose the problems of excessive deflection and concrete cracking, which even lead to bridge collapse in serious cases. The reason is that, in addition to the insufficient estimation of creep and long-term deflection in current regulations, the rapid growth of traffic volume and the tight use of early-age concrete in construction schedules also have a great impact on long-term deflection.

The combination of genomic offset and niche modelling provides insights into climate change-driven vulnerability - Nature Communications
Abstract Global warming is increasingly exacerbating biodiversity loss. Populations locally adapted to spatially heterogeneous environments may respond differentially to climate change, but this intraspecific variation has only recently been considered when modelling vulnerability under climate change. Here, we incorporate intraspecific variation in genomic offset and ecological niche modelling to estimate climate change-driven vulnerability in two bird species in the Sino-Himalayan Mountains.

Highlights • This study investigated the relationship among social participation, depression and quality of life in NMOSD patients for the first time. • There was only a direct relationship between social participation and physical component summary. • Depression mediated the relationship between social participation and mental component summary. • This study provided a reference for depression management and quality of life intervention in NMOSD patients.
Enhancing Ag-doped Cu2ZnSnS4 solar cell performance by interfacial modification via In and Al
Enhancing Ag-doped Cu2ZnSnS4 solar cell performance by interfacial modification via In and Al Ping Fan, Yang He, Guang-xing Liang, Zhigao Xie, Zixuan Yu, Jinhong Lin, Shuo Chen, Zhuang-hao Zheng, Jing-Ting Luo and Zhenghua Su Abstract Ag-alloyed Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 kesterite semiconductors have recently been attracting considerable attention recently because doping with Ag can suppress the CuZn related anti-site defects, which is the main factor that limits the efficiency of kesterite solar cells.
