The inherent quasi-brittleness of cement-based materials, due to the disorder their hydration products and pore structures, present significant challenges for directional matrix toughening. In this work, a rigid layered skeleton cement slurry was prepared using simplified ice-template method, subsequently flexible polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel introduced into unidirectional pores between neighboring platelets, resulting in formation multi-layered composite. A toughness improvement over 175...
Osteoporosis is a major public health problem. It mainly characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) and/or low-trauma osteoporotic fractures (OF), both of which have strong genetic determination. The specific genes influencing these phenotypic traits, however, are largely unknown. Using the Affymetrix 500K array set, we performed case-control genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 700 elderly Chinese Han subjects (350 with hip OF and 350 healthy matched controls). A follow-up...
In the context of global climate change, urban morphology is closely related to thermal comfort and contributes sustainable development. Academics started pay attention topics carried out many studies during last decades. This paper aims summarize research achievements development track for future studies. The Web Science database CiteSpace were used in this conduct a bibliometric analysis 556 fields from 1993 2020. Using three-level co-occurrence 446 keywords, 1187 cocited literature...
Abstract Background Recently introduced pathway-based approach is promising and advantageous to improve the efficiency of analyzing genome-wide association scan (GWAS) data identify disease variants by jointly considering genes that belong same biological pathway. However, current available approaches for GWAS have limited power efficiency. Results We proposed a new efficient permutation strategy based on SNP randomization determining significance in pathway analysis GWAS. The developed was...
Large-scale urban green spaces exert a cooling effect in cities and have great potential for optimizing the climate. In this study, taking typical space Xingfulindai Xi’an as an example, we carried out field measurements ENVI-met simulations of area surrounding high-rise residential areas to analyze effect. The results show that is strongest at night summer seasons, spreading up 250 m, intensity along downwind direction can be 2 °C. On basis, total 16 ideal models seven groups blocks were...
Obesity is a serious health problem with strong genetic determination. Copy number variation (CNV) common type of genomic variant associated some complex human diseases. However, it not clear how CNVs contribute to the etiology obesity. In this study, we examined 1,000 unrelated US whites search for that may predispose We focused our analyses on Prader‐Willi syndrome (PWS) critical region (chromosome 15q11–q13), because PWS hotspot CNV generation and obesity one major clinical manifestations...
Heavy metal contamination in agricultural soils has attracted increasing attention recent years. In this study, 1999 soil samples were collected from 11 cities Zhejiang Province 2016 to 2020, and the spatial temporal variation characteristics of 3 most important heavy metals, i.e., lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr) analyzed. The results showed that Cd had a slightly higher sample over-standard rate 12.06%. Spatial distribution trends Pb concentrations overall increased 2020 mainly...
Hip OF carries the highest morbidity and mortality. Previous studies revealed that individual genes/loci in Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand (TRAIL) pathway were associated with bone metabolism. This study aims to verify potential association between hip TRAIL pathway.Using genome-wide genotype data from Affymetrix 500 K SNP arrays, we performed novel pathway-based analyses for 700 elderly Chinese Han subjects (350 350 healthy matched controls).The achieved a...
In this study, MODIS land products and China cover datasets were used to extract normalized difference vegetation index, surface temperature, type in Yan’an City during the summers of 2017–2022. On basis, analysis spatial change correlation carried out as a way study mitigation effect on urban heat islands with forest. The showed that: (1) coverage index over 0.4 summer increased from 59.38% 69.12%, good growth conditions. It has distribution pattern more south less north. (2) proportion...
This study employs the Standard International Trade Classification (SITC rev.3) to categorize agricultural products and examines overall each type of trade networks in China. It utilizes Social Network Analysis Quadratic Assignment Procedure explore pattern changes identify influencing factors. The findings indicate that between 2000 2019, China's experienced expansion scale density, with China positioned at network's centre. However, challenges exist, such as insufficient control...
In recent years, the chemical production and waste generation have been rapidly increasing, presenting substantial hazards to ecosystem human well-being. To address this issue, a series of multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs) developed internationally, that provide essential decision-making support for appropriate governance chemicals wastes in participating countries. MEAs established subsidiary bodies known as science-policy interface (SPI) institutions evidence-based scientific...
Medicinal plant diversity (MPD) is an important component of diversity. Over-collection based on medicinal and economic value has the potential to damage stability regional ecosystem. It understand current distribution MPD factors influencing it. However, it still unclear whether environmental socioeconomic conditions have impact their distribution. We selected Inner Mongolia as a representative study area which covers wide area, accounting for 12.29% China's national land 0.79% world's...
Summary Total body fat mass (TBFM) and total lean (TBLM) are the major components of human body. Although these highly correlated phenotypic traits frequently used to characterize obesity, specific shared genetic factors that influence both remain largely unknown. Our study was aimed at identifying common quantitative trait loci (QTLs) contributing TBFM TBLM. We performed a whole genome-linkage scan in large sample 3255 subjects from 420 Caucasian pedigrees. Bivariate linkage analysis...
