Effect of a postpartum lifestyle intervention among rural women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus from different socioeconomic backgrounds
Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2000037956), registered on 3rd Jan 2018
Elucidating the therapeutic mechanism of Orthosiphon aristatus in hyperuricemic nephropathy
Mitigating cyberbullying’s impact on children’s well-being
Extensive online exposure of children has led to an increasing incidence of cyberbullying, which can have adverse effects on their well-being. This study investigated the roles of digital literacy and cognitive emotion regulation (CER) strategies on children’s subjective well-being under different forms of cyberbullying experiences (i.e., perpetration, victimization, and bystander). Data were collected from 1767 primary students (49.12% girls) fr…
Antioxidant polyphenolic extract from Rosa cymosa Tratt alleviates the inflammatory response in RAW264.7 macrophages via regulating NF-κB pathway and cell autophagy
Deficiency of autism susceptibility gene Trio in cerebellar Purkinje cells leads to delayed motor impairments
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a group of neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by social interaction deficits, restricted interests and repetitive behaviors. The co-occurrence of motor impairments exacerbates the severity and societal impact of ASD, but the underlying mechanism remains to be elucidated. Research on the comorbidities of ASD including motor impairments could benefit in the life quality improvement in patients with ASD. Her…
Universal Mail Ballot Delivery Boosts Turnout
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, some American states had transitioned to universal voting by mail, where all registered voters receive a mail ballot. But due to the pandemic, universal voting by mail was suddenly used in a larger number of states in 2020. Here we study a unique situation in which registered voters in some legislative districts in Los Angeles County were subjected to universal voting by mail in the March 2020 primary. Using differ…

Survey Attention and Self-Reported Political Behavior
Survey research methodology is evolving rapidly, as new technologies provide new opportunities. One of the areas of innovation regards the development of online interview best practices and the advancement of methods that allow researchers to measure the attention that respondents are devoting to the survey task. Reliable measurement of respondent attention can yield important information about the quality of the survey response. In this article,…
Proportion and risk factors of diabetic retinopathy by stage in less-developed rural areas of Hunan province of China
DR was prevalent among people with T2DM in less-developed rural areas, indicating the need of strengthening DR screening. Risk factors of DR varied by stage while sharing some common factors. Future DR prevention and intervention programs may benefit from improving these factors to reduce the risk of DR by stage
Why Do Election Results Change after Election Day? The “Blue Shift” in California Elections
The counting of votes in contemporary American elections is usually not completed on Election Night. There has been an increasing tendency for vote shares to shift toward Democratic candidates after Election Day in general elections, in particular, in recent U.S. elections. Leveraging important snapshots of precinct-level election returns and precinct-level demographic and political composition from Orange County, California, we conduct the first…
Assessment of the Toxicity of Quantum Dots through Biliometric Analysis
Along with the rapid development of nanotechnology, the biosafety of quantum dots (QDs), a widely used kind of nanoparticles, has grabbed the attentions of researchers, because QDs have excellent and unique optical properties that other commonly used nanoparticles, like walled carbon nanotubes, do not have. The understanding of the toxicity of QDs is an important premise for their application in wider fields, including biology and medicine. This …
Voting Experiences, Perceptions of Fraud, and Voter Confidence
Objective Assuring voter confidence is important for the legitimacy of democratic elections. In this article, we test four hypotheses about the correlates of voter confidence at various levels of election administration. Methods We take advantage of a large online survey of registered voters in a single election jurisdiction, Orange County (CA), which was implemented immediately after the November 2018 midterm elections. We measure voting experie…
Paying Attention to Inattentive Survey Respondents
Does attentiveness matter in survey responses? Do more attentive survey participants give higher quality responses? Using data from a recent online survey that identified inattentive respondents using instructed-response items, we demonstrate that ignoring attentiveness provides a biased portrait of the distribution of critical political attitudes and behavior. We show that this bias occurs in the context of both typical closed-ended questions an…
Relaxing the No Liars Assumption in List Experiment Analyses
The analysis of list experiments depends on two assumptions, known as “no design effect” and “no liars”. The no liars assumption is strong and may fail in many list experiments. I relax the no liars assumption in this paper, and develop a method to provide bounds for the prevalence of sensitive behaviors or attitudes under a weaker behavioral assumption about respondents’ truthfulness toward the sensitive item. I apply the method to a list experi…
Fraud, convenience, and e-voting
In this article, we study previous experiences with voting technologies, support for e-voting, and perceptions of voter fraud, using data from the 2015 Cooperative Congressional Election Study. We find that voters prefer systems they have used in the past, and that priming voters with voting fraud considerations causes them to support lower-tech alternatives to touch-screen voting machines — particularly among voters with previous experience usin…
