Rising Global Elderly Health Inequalities in the Face of Temperature Extremes
Published 2025-07-01Get full textAbstract The elderly population, being particularly vulnerable, is expected to face increased life‐threatening risk due to climate change, especially in low‐income regions, thereby exacerbating global inequalities. Here we developed the Elderly Mortality Risk Index (EMRI) to sufficiently understand...

Influence of Surface Microstructure Parameters on Wear of Bearing Steel Ball Unfolding Wheel
Published 2021-12-01Get full textIn order to study the dry friction wear relationship between the bearing steel ball unfolding wheel with the surface microstructure parameters (area, shape and depth), the orthogonal test method was used to test the microstructure with different parameters. The simulation software was used to analyz...

Role and mechanism of IGFBP5 in the real-ambient particulate matter exposure-induced chronic lung injury
Published 2025-06-01Get full textBackgroundInflammation and oxidative stress are the main pathological processes of particulate matter (PM)-induced lung injury. Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 5 (IGFBP5) is an important secretory protein related to inflammation and oxidative damage in several tissues, whereas its roles i...

Preparation and characterization of a novel walnut peptide–calcium chelate and its role in promoting calcium absorption in calcium-deficient mice
Published 2025-08-01Get full textWalnut peptide (WP) was chelated with calcium (Ca) to prepare WP-Ca chelate. The characterization, stability, and absorption properties of WP-Ca were investigated. Results showed that WP showed a calcium-binding capacity of 14.22 μg/mg, primarily through interactions with nitrogen and oxygen atoms....

De novo assembly of Zea nicaraguensis root transcriptome identified 5 261 full-length transcripts
Published 2016-06-01Get full textZea nicaraguensis, a wild relative of cultivated maize (Zea mays subsp. mays), is considered to be a valuable germplasm to improve the waterlogging tolerance of cultivated maize. Use of reverse genetic-based gene cloning and function verification to discover waterlogging tolerance genes in Z. nicara...

High-Stability Broadband Wavelength-Tunable Single-Frequency Ytterbium-Doped All-Fiber Compound Ring Cavity
Published 2017-01-01Get full textA high-stability wavelength-tunable single-frequency (SF) ytterbium-doped all-fiber compound ring laser has been demonstrated experimentally. The compound ring cavity is composed of a fiber optical tunable filter, a high-finesse ring filter, and a loop mirror filter. Three segments of ytterbium-dope...

Combining Ability and Parent-Offspring Correlation of Maize (Zea may L.) Grain β-Carotene Content with a Complete Diallel
Published 2013-01-01Get full textVitamin A deficiency has become a worldwide problem. Biofortified foods can potentially be an inexpensive, locally adaptable, and long-term solution to dietary-nutrient deficiency. In order to improve the β-carotene content in maize grain by breeding and minimize vitamin A deficiency, a complete dia...

Perennial aneuploidy as a potential material for gene introgression between maize and Zea perennis
Published 2015-05-01Get full textHybridization, which allows for gene flow between crops, is difficult between maize and Zea perennis. In this study, we aim to initiate and study gene flow between maize and Z. perennis via a special aneuploid plant (MDT) derived from an interspecific hybrid of the two species. The chromosome consti...
