Analysis of Residues in Pottery Vessels Unearthed at the Zhenjiang Tiansheng Daoist Temple and a Discussion on the Daoist Alchemical Vessel ‘Yangcheng Jar’
This study scientifically analyzed nine special‐purpose pottery vessels and their residues from the Tian Sheng Temple Daoist Site in Zhenjiang. Using advanced techniques like SEM‐EDS and micro‐Raman spectroscopy, the research identified that the vessels' structure (shallow body, wide mouth, pointed base) aligns with the prolonged and controlled heating required by external alchemy (waidan). The residues were primarily lead oxide, containing a com…
Surgical anaesthesia in Ming China: Scientific analysis of aconitine residues on medical instruments
The analysis of archaeological trace residues is offering expanding insights into various aspects of human (pre)history, including developments in medical knowledge. Here, the authors present results from the analysis of two medical instruments (scissors and tweezers) found in a Ming Dynasty ( c . 1368–1644 CE) tomb in Jiangyin, China. While the form and composition of the instruments themselves indicate developed understandings of tool productio…
Association of blood cadmium levels with epigenetic age acceleration in U.S. adults aged > 50 years
Objectives DNA methylation (DNAm) is a sensitive biomarker of aging-related processes, and novel epigenetic-based “clocks” can estimate accelerated biological aging. Cadmium (Cd) can alter cellular processes that promote aging and disrupt global methylation patterns. However, few studies have investigated the association between blood Cd and accelerated aging. We aimed to investigate the association between blood Cd and four DNAm-based epigenetic…
Addressing the challenge of tuberculosis screening in diabetic populations: A narrative review of methods and strategies
The comorbidity of diabetes and tuberculosis (TB) poses a major public health challenge. Patients with diabetes have impaired immune function, increasing their risk of contracting TB. They often present with atypical clinical symptoms after infection, which can lead to delayed diagnosis. Therefore, TB screening in the diabetic patients is essential. This study systematically reviews advances in TB screening strategies for diabetic patients by sea…
Kinesiophobia and associated factors among patients after cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass: A cross-sectional study
Kinesiophobia is highly prevalent and multifactorial in post-cardiopulmonary bypass patients. Healthcare providers should prioritize patients with the above risk profiles, while also establishing financial/emotional support systems, improving patient-family communication, optimizing acute pain management, implementing Enhanced Recovery After Cardiac Surgery protocols, and leveraging technology to design rehabilitation programs. These measures may…
Regulatory mechanisms of signaling pathways in liver cancer treatment with traditional Chinese medicine
From Vernacular Syntax to Algorithmic Regenerative Design: Semiotic Decoding and Encoding of Kashgar’s Earthen Dwellings
This study explores the traditional adobe dwellings of Kashgar, Xinjiang, through the lens of semiotics theory to conduct a comprehensive analysis of their environmental adaptability. It decodes the architectural language and probes the mechanisms by which modern algorithmic patterns are encoded. Utilizing field surveys, 3D modeling, and semiotic analysis, the research identifies and extracts symbols of environmental adaptation from Kashgar’s res…
Blood cadmium level as a risk factor for chronic pain: NHANES database 1999–2004
Objective: The escalating prevalence of chronic pain poses a substantial socio-economic burden. Chronic pain primarily stems from musculoskeletal and nervous system impairments. Given cadmium's known toxicity to these systems, our study sought to investigate the correlation between blood cadmium levels and chronic pain. Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 1999-2004), …
Quantifying the impact of disease severity changes on the burden of blindness: A global decomposition analysis
Background: Despite the significant impact of blindness on the affected individuals' quality of life, its burden has not been assessed according to temporal cause-specific changes in severity, impeding our ability to evaluate the impact of blindness on population health accurately. Therefore, we aimed to comprehensively quantify the changes in cause-specific blindness burden according to changes in disease severity for 18 causes of blindness. Met…
Commentary: Machine learning for autism spectrum disorder diagnosis – challenges and opportunities – a commentary on Schulte‐Rüther et al. (2022)
The commentary cites a study by Schulte‐Rüther et al. ( Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry , 2022) that proposed a machine learning model to predict a clinical best‐estimate diagnosis of ASD when existing other co‐occurring diagnoses. We discuss the valuable contribution of this work to developing a reliable computer‐assisted diagnosis (CAD) system for ASD and point out that related research can be integrated with other multimodal machine…
