Human studies on association between bisphenol A (BPA) exposure and semen quality, mostly based single urinary measurement, are inconsistent. There is limited human evidence BPA analogues such as F (BPF) S (BPS), little known potential effects of mixtures. We aimed to explore whether individual or mixtures BPA, BPS BPF assessed in repeated measurements were associated with quality among 984 Chinese men from an infertility clinic. found that higher was increased odds ratios (ORs) having...
China’s new residential developments have widely taken the form of privately governed gated communities since socialist work-unit housing system was terminated towards end 1990s. Although many studies recognised these emerging neighbourhoods as having improved physical conditions, there has also been a decline in neighbouring and thus they profoundly changed traditional collectivist regime living China. However, is lack research into whether cultivate positive relationship with residents how...
Bisphenol A (BPA) as an endocrine disrupting chemical has been shown to alter reproductive function, but little is known on its analogues such bisphenol F (BPF) and S (BPS) with increasing usage exposure. To explore the associations between exposures BPA, BPF BPS serum hormones among reproductive-aged Chinese men. We measured concentrations in repeated urine samples multiple collected from 462 men attending infertility clinic Wuhan, China. Linear regression models were applied assess...
Cell-based therapies offer an exciting and novel treatment for heart repair following myocardial infarction (MI). However, these often suffer from poor cell viability engraftment rates, which involve many factors, including the hypoxic conditions of infarct environment. Meanwhile, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has previously been employed as a therapeutic agent to limit damage simultaneously induce neovascularization. This study took approach transiently overexpress VEGF protein,...
SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) has evolved many variants with stronger infectivity and immune evasion than the original strain, including Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Kappa, Iota, Lambda, 21H strains. Amino acid mutations are enriched in spike protein of SARS-CoV-2, which plays a crucial role cell infection. However, impact these on structure function is unclear. Understanding pathophysiology pandemic features requires knowledge structures. Here, we...
Background: Experimental studies have shown that disinfection byproducts (DBPs) including haloacetic acids (HAAs) can cause liver toxicity, but evidence linking this association in humans is sparse. Objectives: We aimed to explore the associations between HAA exposures and injury. Methods: included 922 women December 2018 January 2020 from Tongji Reproductive Environmental (TREE) cohort study Wuhan, China. Urinary concentrations trichloroacetic acid (TCAA) dichloroacetic (DCAA) serum...
Abstract The COVID pandemic disrupted traditional entrepreneurial governance arrangements. When the state's action could not effectively govern society, “entrepreneurial self” began to emerge and manage crisis. Using Shanghai as a case study, this research examines dynamics of “community group‐buying” during its city‐wide lockdown in 2022. It shows how small group residents, known group‐buying entrepreneurs ( tuanzhang ), mobilise community members organise collective food purchases address...
Housing commodification has led to the development of gated neighbourhoods in China. However, types are very different from each other, and include ‘commodity housing’, affordable housing resettlement housing. They might not be same as commonly known ‘gated communities’, which characterised by both gating private governance. Using three cases city Wenzhou, we analyse motivations for development, service provision property management, neighbourhood control. In commodity housing, state is...
The state-society relationship in neighbourhood governance has been a focal topic the urban literature, though existing scholarship was primarily drawn from non-crisis situations. Adopting mixed-methods approach, this study investigates intricate dynamics manifested at scale as state and societal actors collaborated during China's COVID-19 responses. Our reveals pattern of collaborative rather than confrontational between resident committees other stakeholders pandemic responses, which...
Chemically modified mRNA (modRNA) has proven to be a versatile tool for the treatment of various cancers and infectious diseases due recent technological advancements. However, safe effective delivery system overcome complex extracellular intracellular barriers is required in order achieve higher therapeutic efficacy broaden clinical applications. Here, we explored All-Fect Leu-Fect C as novel transfection reagents derived from lipopolymers, which demonstrated excellent biocompatibility,...
Background Sperm quality, including semen volume, sperm count, concentration, and total progressive motility (collectively, “semen parameters”), has declined in the recent decades. Computer-assisted analysis (CASA) provides kinematic parameters, temporal trends of which remain unclear. Our objective is to examine trend both parameters Shanghai, China, years. Methods This retrospective study analyzed 49,819 men attending our reproductive center by using CASA during 2015–2021. The sample was...
The healthy human heart has special directional arrangement of cardiomyocytes and a unique electrical conduction system, which is critical for the maintenance effective contractions. precise (CMs) along with consistency between CMs essential enhancing physiological accuracy in vitro cardiac model systems. Here, we prepared aligned electrospun rGO/PLCL membranes using electrospinning technology to mimic natural structure. physical, chemical biocompatible properties were rigorously tested. We...
