Drivers of the rare persistence of sea ice in the western Chukchi Sea in summer 2024
During the 2024 Arctic summer, an unexpected sea ice patch (∼100 000 km 2 ) survived in the western Chukchi Sea, an event that has not occurred in the past 20 years. Combining satellite data, PIOMAS model, and ERA5 reanalysis data, we analyze this anomaly’s evolution and its dynamic and thermodynamic drivers in the 2000–2024 series. The analysis reveals that July–August are key months; ice concentration and thickness during this time determines t…
Variability in ice shelf basal melting in the Amundsen Sea Embayment from 2019 to 2023
The Amundsen Sea Embayment (ASE) of West Antarctica is one of the most crucial regions for understanding current ice-sheet mass loss and its impact on global sea-level rise. Past observations have revealed rapid thinning of ice shelves, driven primarily by ocean-induced basal melting of their undersides. These processes weaken the shelves’ buttressing effect, potentially accelerating inland ice discharge, and raising concerns about marine ice-she…
Digital health literacy and associated factors among internet users from China: A cross-sectional study
The study findings demonstrate that age, educational levels, number of technological devices used, and greater use of the web for health information were independently associated with DHL scores. Healthcare providers should consider providing training programs tailored to specific sociodemographic factors to improve the ability that find and use accurate information online to meet digital health services, which contributes to enhance their self-m…

Recombinant mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion protein for diagnosis of mycobacterium tuberculosis infection: A short-term economic evaluation
Objectives: Recombinant Mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion protein (EC) was anticipated to be used for the scale-up of clinical application for diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in China, but it lacked a head-to-head economic evaluation based on the Chinese population. This study aimed to estimate the cost-utility and the cost-effectiveness of both EC and tuberculin pure protein derivative (TB-PPD) for diagnosis of Mycobacterium tu…

Contribution of the deepened Amundsen sea low to the record low Antarctic sea ice extent in February 2022
The annual minimum Antarctic sea ice extent (SIE) in February 2022 hits a record low in the satellite era, with less than 2 million square kilometres observed on 25 February 2022, contrasting with the slightly positive trend in the Antarctic SIE prior to 2014. However, the preceding Amundsen Sea Low (ASL) in austral spring 2021 was the deepest since 1950. According to a linear regression model, the very low ASL contributed about 60% to the record…
Gallbladder disease is associated with the risk of cardiovascular disease among Uyghurs in Xinjiang: A prospective cohort study
GBD is an important independent risk factor for CVD development. Awareness of these associations will raise concerns among clinicians about the risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with GBD
New insight into the influence of the Greenland high on summer Arctic sea ice
The Greenland high (GL-high) coincides with a local center of action of the summer North Atlantic Oscillation and is known to have significant influence on Greenland ice sheet melting and summer Arctic sea ice. However, the mechanism behind the influence on regional Arctic sea ice is not yet clear. In this study, using reanalysis datasets and satellite observations, the influence of the GL-high in early summer on Arctic sea ice variability, and t…
A surface temperature dipole pattern between Eurasia and North America triggered by the Barents–Kara sea-ice retreat in boreal winter
The Arctic has experienced dramatic climate changes, characterized by rapid surface warming and sea-ice loss over the past four decades, with broad implications for climate variability over remote regions. Some studies report that Arctic warming may simultaneously induce a widespread cooling over Eurasia and frequent cold events over North America, especially during boreal winter. In contrast, other studies suggest a seesaw pattern of extreme tem…
Social cost of carbon under a carbon-neutral pathway
Climate change is the challenge of the century, and achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement will require worldwide cooperation and mutual effort. Over 120 countries have made their net-zero commitments, and quantifying the social cost of carbon (SCC), i.e. the climate damage caused by an additional ton of CO 2 emissions, under a carbon-neutral pathway would provide a carbon price benchmark for policymakers. Here, we set in detail the emission …
Effectiveness of a Worksite-Based Lifestyle Intervention on Employees’ Obesity Control and Prevention in China: A Group Randomized Experimental Study
Background: This study was to culturally adapt a lifestyle intervention for employees’ obesity control and prevention using a participatory process, and evaluate the effectiveness of the project at worksites. Methods: A group randomized experimental study included four worksites (two intervention, two control) in the Yangtze River Delta in China was conducted. A total of 388 participants (216 in the intervention worksites and 172 in the control w…

Clinical Symptom Differences Between Mild and Severe Covid-19 Patients in China: A Meta-Analysis
Objective: The prognosis of mild and severe patients has prominent differences during the prevalence of COVID-19, and it will be significant to identify patients' potential risk of progressing to severe cases according to their first clinical presentations. Therefore, we aim to review the clinical symptoms of the COVID-19 epidemic systematically. Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and CNKI (Chinese Database) for studies about th…

Genetic composition of Teochew population in Chaozhou revealed by 19 STR loci: Population polymorphism and interpopulation comparisons
Aim: To investigate the genetic polymorphisms of 19 STR loci in the Teochew population of Chaozhou. Subjects and methods: Nineteen STR loci of 631 unrelated Teochew people in Chaozhou were detected by using the AGCU Expressmarker 20 kit. Results: The allele frequency ranged from 0.0008-0.5577. The combined power of discrimination and combined probability of excluding paternity is over 0.999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999 and 0.999,999,992,54…
Protective effects of Tongxinluo on cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury related to Connexin 43/Calpain II/Bax/Caspase-3 pathway in rat
Can Previous Pro-Environmental Behaviours Influence Subsequent Environmental Behaviours? The Licensing Effect of Pro-Environmental Behaviours
Methods for promoting individuals’ pro-environmental behaviours are becoming very important. Besides traditional factors relevant to pro-environmental actions, few studies have examined the licensing effect within this domain. Across three studies we have explored whether the licensing effect really exists in pro-environmental behaviours, how this effect actually works, and how to inhibit or even avoid this effect. Results have revealed that prev…
