International advocacy for ketogenic diet research in schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is associated with substantial disability, persistent symptoms, and significant unmet treatment needs. The ketogenic diet has emerged as a metabolic intervention of growing interest for serious mental illness. This study reports quantitative and qualitative findings from a large international Change.org petition advocating for the resumption of a halted randomized blinded inpatient study investigating a ketogenic diet intervention f…
Evaluating the Impacts of Human Activity and Climate on Vegetation Dynamics Using an Integrated Human Activity Index
In recent decades, human activities have gradually influenced climate variability, consequently changing vegetation dynamics. We examined China's Loess Plateau (LP), a semi‐arid, erosion‐prone region undergoing large‐scale ecological restoration and rapid socioeconomic change, providing a natural setting to contrast climatic and anthropogenic influences. However, annual, temporally continuous quantification of multidimensional human activity—need…
The promotion club
We theoretically and empirically explore club-based promotions in hierarchical organizations. A game-theoretic model shows that strategic ambiguity in promotions—more specifically, an incentive scheme in which only top performers who pass a relative-performance threshold are eligible for promotions—may outperform single-prize tournaments in terms of both effort and leaders’ flexibility over personnel. Selection among threshold passers is independ…

Exploring gender differences in vocational education and training through the lens of neuroscience
Vocational education and training (VET) seeks to provide individuals with the requisite skills for specific work, although gender differences continue to impede job placement and effectiveness. Neuroscientific studies can contribute to resolving the disparity between genders in vocational education by examining the distinct brain functions and structures associated with perception, cognition, emotion, and social skills. This review highlights the…
Media channels and the secondary transfer effect
This study examines the Secondary Transfer Effect (STE) in a non-Western context by investigating how Japanese university students' contact with immigrants and LGBTQ individuals relates to their willingness to interact with Asian international students. Using data from 299 Japanese undergraduates and path analyses, we assessed four contact channels: direct interactions, traditional mass media, recreational media, and social media. Findings show t…
Incorporating climate data with machine learning can improve rice phenology estimation
Crop phenology provides essential information for crop management and production. Satellite-based methods are commonly used for phenology estimation but still struggle to capture interannual variations of phenological events. The importance of climate variation in crop phenology has been well acknowledged, but the potential of incorporating climate data to improve phenology estimation remains unclear. Here, we developed a hybrid model by incorpor…
Assessment of global land cover changes using satellite data

This study aimed to improve understanding of global land cover dynamics to enable more effective future land management practices and conservation actions. This study quantified interannual changes in global land cover types from 2001 to 2020 and distinguished intermittent transitions from stable gains and losses. From the inter…
The relationship between involvement in household chores and problem-solving abilities among preschool children and the moderating role of parental scaffolding
Household chores as activities of daily living positively affect young children's development, allowing children to build knowledge and confront real-life challenges, which cannot be separated from problem-solving ability. Problem-solving ability is a key factor in early childhood development, furnishing children with vital cognitive and behavioral strategies for navigating diverse future scenarios. Therefore, this study aims to explore the relat…
A Lightweight Multi-Label Classification Method for Urban Green Space in High-Resolution Remote Sensing Imagery
Urban green spaces are an indispensable part of the ecology of cities, serving as the city’s “purifier” and playing a crucial role in promoting sustainable urban development. Therefore, the refined classification of urban green spaces is an important task in urban planning and management. Traditional methods for the refined classification of urban green spaces heavily rely on expert knowledge, often requiring substantial time and cost. Hence, our…
Prevention capacity significantly reduced the livestock exposure to snow hazards across the Qinghai Plateau
Livestock snow disaster is one of the most serious natural disasters in pastoral areas during cold seasons, leading to substantial livestock losses over the past few decades. Accurate assessment of livestock exposure is crucial for reducing the risk of livestock snow disaster, while much less is known about the livestock exposure due to the lack of available gridded livestock density data with long time series. In this study, the gridded density …
Do Playful Parents Raise Playful Children? A Mixed Methods Study to Explore the Impact of Parental Playfulness on Children’s Playfulness
Research Findings: Playfulness is an important personality tendency with an important role in the well-being, mental health, and various other aspects of an individual’s life. Previous studies have shown that the development of children’s playfulness is related to parents’ playfulness. However, limited research has been conducted on how parental playfulness influences children’s playfulness. The present study used a mixed-methods design to examin…
Trajectories of anxiety and depression among Chinese men who have sex with men on pre-exposure prophylaxis
Close monitoring of anxiety and depression levels in MSM on PrEP is crucial. Provision of targeted mental health support is essential to enhance PrEP effectiveness
The abolition of People’s Communes and fertility decline in rural China
Institutional discrimination and assimilation
Starving and deceiving
Dishonest politicians can jeopardize economic development. How do disasters change politicians’ incentives to lie? We employ a difference-in-differences approach to show that public officials who were exposed to China’s 1959–1961 famine as children (aged 0–6 years) are less likely to manipulate local GDP calculations; the reduction is more significant for officials who were more severely impacted by the disaster. We further reveal that famine-exp…
Accountability from cyberspace? Scandal exposure on the Internet and official governance in China
This article explores the effects of social media on government accountability under authoritarian regimes. It examines whether online discussions have a disciplining effect on officials' scandals. We use a unique dataset containing records of scandals discussed on microblogs in China to systematically study their effects on the government response process and officials' disciplining. We find that the government employs clear strategies: higher l…
Communism and patricide
This paper studies the impact of collectivization on patricide in China during the Cultural Revolution. From 1955 to 1957, nearly 96 per cent of farmers were organized into communes. Consequently, fathers lost control over family wealth. We propose that this shift decreased fathers' bargaining power over their adult sons, which might increase family conflicts. On the basis of a novel dataset, we find that the speed of collectivization significant…
Association of SO2/CO exposure and greenness with high blood pressure in children and adolescents
Introduction We aimed to investigate the association between greenness around schools, long-term gaseous air pollution exposure (SO 2 and CO), and blood pressure in children and adolescents. Methods From 2006 to 2018, a total of 219,956 Chinese children and adolescents aged 7–17 years in Beijing and Zhongshan were included in this longitudinal study. Annual average concentrations of SO 2 and CO and the mean values of normalized difference vegetat…
Long-term exposure to ambient ozone at workplace is positively and non-linearly associated with incident hypertension and blood pressure
To our knowledge, this is the first cohort study in the general population that demonstrates the non-linear hypertensive effects of long-term O 3 exposure. The findings are particularly relevant for policymakers and researchers involved in ambient pollution and public health, supporting the integration of reduction of ambient O 3 into public health interventions
In the Shadow of Administrative Decentralization
Decentralization is often regarded as a panacea for achieving good governance. Yet few studies have explored how devolution (to subnational governments) affects policy agendas. In this article, we investigate how devolution affects two aspects of public service provision—economic growth and environmental protection based on the experience of China. The results show that the devolution simultaneously promotes local economic development and damages…
The Tragedy of theNomenklatura
A salient feature of China's Great Leap Famine is that political radicalism varied enormously across provinces. Using excessive grain procurement as a pertinent measure, we find that such variations were patterned systematically on the political career incentives of Communist Party officials rather than the conventionally assumed ideology or personal idiosyncrasies. Political rank alone can explain 16.83% of the excess death rate: the excess proc…

Gender Differences in the Association between Serum Uric Acid and Prediabetes
This study aimed to examine gender differences in the association between serum uric acid (SUA) and the risk of prediabetes in a longitudinal cohort. A total of 8237 participants in the Beijing Health Management Cohort study were recruited and surveyed during 2008−2009, and followed up in 2011−2012 and 2014−2015 surveys. Generalized estimating equation (GEE) models were used to evaluate the association between SUA and prediabetes. Furthermore, su…
No Need for Draco’s Code
The occasional “strike hard” campaigns against crime launched by the Chinese government provide an opportunity to isolate the separate effects of severity and certainty of punishment on the crime rate. The “strike hard” campaigns increase the severity of the punishment but keep the certainty of the punishment unchanged. We use provincial panel data from 1988 to 2015 to examine the impacts of the two strategies on the crime rate with pooled mean g…
Latent class analysis of a syndemic of risk factors on HIV testing among black men
Syndemic methodology has been employed in several studies of HIV-related outcomes affecting Black men who have sex with men (BMSM) and rarely in Black heterosexual men. In contrast to the most common method for assessing syndemics, the use of a syndemic component index, latent class analysis can identify unique combinations of risk factors that may form a syndemic. Analyzing a primarily heterosexual sample of 1,786 Black men from the 2015 Behavio…
The Role of Hippocampal Functional Connectivity on Multisystem Subclinical Abnormalities in Schizophrenia
OBJECTIVE: Schizophrenia is associated with excess medical mortality: patients have an average life expectancy one to two decades shorter than the general population. This study investigates the relationship between aberrant hippocampal resting-state functional connectivity in schizophrenia and cumulative subclinical effects of chronic stress on metabolic, cardiovascular, and immune function using the allostatic load index. METHODS: Cumulative st…

Running out of steam? A political incentive perspective of FDI inflows in China
Drawing on the sociological literature of state bureaucracy, we develop a political incentive perspective on FDI inflows. We argue that political term, as a core feature of career advancement in state bureaucracy, influences the incentives of newly appointed government officials and in turn their efforts toward achieving the state’s goal of attracting FDI. Due to the mandatory retirement age which limits the career advancement, officials in their…
Future climate change significantly alters interannual wheat yield variability over half of harvested areas
Climate change affects the spatial and temporal distribution of crop yields, which can critically impair food security across scales. A number of previous studies have assessed the impact of climate change on mean crop yield and future food availability, but much less is known about potential future changes in interannual yield variability. Here, we evaluate future changes in relative interannual global wheat yield variability (the coefficient of…
Metabolite Alterations in Adults With Schizophrenia, First Degree Relatives, and Healthy Controls
Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) studies in schizophrenia have shown altered GABAergic, glutamatergic, and bioenergetic pathways, but if these abnormalities are brain region or illness-stage specific is largely unknown. MRS at 7T MR enables reliable quantification of multiple metabolites, including GABA, glutamate (Glu) and glutamine (Gln), from multiple brain regions within the time constraints of a clinical examination. In this stud…
Study on the Roof Solar Heating Storage System of Traditional Residences in Southern Shaanxi, China
Solar energy is a renewable, green, clean, and universal resource that has great potential in rural areas. Combining solar heating technology with building design to increase indoor thermal comfort in winter is an effective energy-saving and environmentally friendly approach. The factors affecting solar building heating mainly include two aspects; one is the lighting area of the building, and the other is the storage of building materials. By inc…
Study on Passive Heating Involving Firewalls with an Additional Sunlight Room in Rural Residential Buildings
With the growth in China's economic GDP, energy consumption has increased year by year. The energy demand of rural residential buildings is 223 million tons of standard coal equivalent, accounting for 24% of the national energy demand. Therefore, an energy-saving design for rural residences is necessary. This research took the traditional residences in southern Shaanxi as the research object and combined the cooking methods in southern Shaanxi wi…
Study on the Passive Heating System of a Heated Cooking Wall in Dwellings
In China, research on winter heating and energy saving for residential buildings mainly focuses on urban residences rather than rural ones. According to the 2018 China Building Energy Consumption Research Report, rural residential buildings emit about 423 million tons of carbon, accounting for 21% of the country's total carbon emissions. According to the research on China's greenhouse gas inventory, the main sources of carbon emissions in rural a…
Osteoporosis and Alveolar Bone Health in Periodontitis Niche
Periodontitis is a periodontal inflammatory condition that results from disrupted periodontal host–microbe homeostasis, manifested by the destruction of tooth-supporting structures, especially inflammatory alveolar bone loss. Osteoporosis is characterized by systemic deterioration of bone mass and microarchitecture. The roles of many systemic factors have been identified in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis, including endocrine change, metabolic d…
Patterns of Sexually Transmitted Co-infections and Associated Factors Among Men Who Have Sex With Men
Background Men who have sex with men (MSM) are disproportionately affected by sexually transmitted infections (STIs). We sought to describe patterns of sexually transmitted co-infections and explore factors associated with increased acquisition of STIs among MSM. Methods We enrolled MSM in Shenyang, China, between July and December 2020 to test for four STIs, including human papillomavirus (HPV), Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhoeae …
Prevalence of hyperuricemia and the population attributable fraction of modifiable risk factors
Data on updated hyperuricemia prevalence in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region in China, which is one of the world-class urban agglomerations, is sparse. Overweight/obesity, alcohol consumption, smoking and sedentary behavior are modifiable risk factors (MRFs) for elevated serum uric acid (SUA), but their population attributable fractions (PAFs) for hyperuricemia is still unclear. Using baseline data from the BTH Physical Examination General Popu…
