Abstract Background Central obesity is a risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the exact correlation between cardiometabolic index (CMI), an indicator of central obesity, and CKD remains unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate CMI in general American population. Methods This cross-sectional study involved 64,313 members population (≥ 20 years age) with data National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999–2020. The individuals were grouped into three categories by...
To investigate weight perception and related psychological factors in Chinese adolescents.A questionnaire on perception, academic performance, stress, hostility, depression was completed by 6863 middle high school students. Weight height were measured.Overweight to school-related stress both girls boys (P<0.01) hostility (P<0.01). Perceived over-weight lower GPA only (P<0.05).Distorted has a detrimental impact adolescents. These findings may contribute the obesity research development of...
Lipid nanoparticles have shown success in targeting major organs such as the liver, spleen, and lungs, but crossing blood-brain barrier (BBB) remains a challenge. Effective brain-targeted delivery systems are essential for advancing gene therapy neurological diseases remain limited by low transport efficiency poor nucleic acid stability. Here, we report library of ionizable lipids based on tetrahydroisoquinoline structure protoberberine alkaloids, designed to improve BBB penetration via...
This study examined multiple influences on the use of tobacco by adolescents in China. Using theory triadic as a guide, we selected interpersonal, attitudinal/cultural, and intrapersonal constructs from baseline data to predict adolescent smoking 1 year later. We used prospective middle high school students (N=11,583) their parents China Seven Cities Study, longitudinal that is evaluating effects changing economic social factors health behaviors including use. A multilevel regression...
Adult skeletal muscle regeneration is mainly driven by stem cells (MuSCs), which are highly heterogeneous. Although recent studies have started to characterize the heterogeneity of MuSCs, whether a subset with distinct exists within MuSCs remains unanswered. Here, we find that population marked Gli1 expression, required for regeneration. The Gli1+ MuSC displays advantages in proliferation and differentiation both vitro vivo. Depletion this leads delayed regeneration, while transplanted...
Background China has the world's largest concentration of smokers (350 million) and rising alcohol consumption, yet little is known about tobacco use aetiology. In 2000, Chinese National Twin Registry was established to provide a genetically informative resource for investigation health behaviour including use.
To investigate over-weight prevalence and socio-demographic economic correlates in Chinese adolescents.Weight, height, waist circumference, socio-demo-graphic variables of 6863 middle high school students were measured.10% girls 17% boys overweight. Waist circumference overweight risk significantly associated with pubertal status (P<0.05). High levels parental education family income significant factors for (P<0.05).Our findings underscore the need development evidence-based culturally...
Previous studies of genetic and environmental influences on adolescent substance use have been limited to Western samples.This study assesses contributions cigarette smoking, alcohol use, psychological variables (depression, anxiety, aggression, hostility) among 602 pairs twins, 11 19 years old, in Qingdao, China.Heritable were more pronounced for than smoking. In univariate analyses, no heritable effects found depression or modest heritability was anxiety. Hostility relatively girls boys....
Abstract With the changing patterns of morbidity and mortality in China, noncommunicable chronic diseases have become major threats to health Chinese population. The causes include genetic factors behavioral risk such as use tobacco, alcohol, other drugs, unhealthy dietary behaviors, lack physical activity. Twin studies offer a unique opportunity disentangle environmental protective for disease. Qingdao Registry (QTR) was initiated 1998 part National Registry. Over 11,000 pairs twins...

Tobacco use among Chinese adolescents is increasing at approximately 80,000 new smokers per day. Assessing the causes for initiating tobacco in China will be important developing effective interventions and policies to stem rising prevalence rates. This study tested predictors of Resilience Theory a sample 602 adolescents. Results revealed that prior adversity, measured through school family-related events, was significantly associated with increased smoking females. Family factors (i.e.,...
Studies have shown that in hypertensive patients, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with a poor prognosis. Inflammation highly important factor the progression of CKD. Detecting systemic inflammation and intervening promptly patients hypertension may help reduce risk The inflammatory response index (SIRI) tool used to measure response, but its relationship CKD remains uncertain.
