The world faces vast health challenges, and urban residents living in high-density areas have even greater demand for healthy lifestyles.
Based on the data of points of interest, a field survey, and ...an interview, we explored the healthy community-life circle in the downtown area of Chengdu, China from two perspectives: objective measurement and subjective perception of residents. We evaluated the coverage rate and convenience in accessing eight types of health service facilities within a 15-min walk using linear and logistics regression models to explore the degree of resident satisfaction with facilities and influencing factors.
Results showed significant differences in coverage rates between different districts. The overall convenience in accessing health service facilities decreased gradually from the city center to the outskirts. The social environment, the layout of health service facilities, and residents' travel habits were related to health service facility satisfaction. Results also showed significant differences in various facilities' accessibility satisfaction between objective measurement and residents' perception measurement. Compared with subjective measurement, the objective measurements of accessibility for sports venues (objectively measured average minus perceived average: -1.310), sports zones (-0.740), and specialized hospitals (-1.081) were lower; those for community hospitals (0.095), clinics (1.025), and pharmacies (0.765) were higher; and facility accessibility measured by subjective perception had a more significant impact on health facility satisfaction. Pharmacies (OR: 1.932) and community hospitals (OR: 1.751) had the largest impact among the eight types of facilities.
This study proposed to construct a healthy community-life circle with a category and hierarchy system.
Abstract
The high cost of large-scale, high-coverage whole-genome sequencing has limited its application in genomics and genetics research. The common approach has been to impute whole-genome ...sequence variants obtained from a few individuals for a larger population of interest individually genotyped using SNP chip. An alternative involves low-coverage whole-genome sequencing (lcWGS) of all individuals in the larger population, followed by imputation to sequence resolution. To overcome limitations of processing lcWGS data and meeting specific genotype imputation requirements, we developed AGIDB (https://agidb.pro), a website comprising tools and database with an unprecedented sample size and comprehensive variant decoding for animals. AGIDB integrates whole-genome sequencing and chip data from 17 360 and 174 945 individuals, respectively, across 89 species to identify over one billion variants, totaling a massive 688.57 TB of processed data. AGIDB focuses on integrating multiple genotype imputation scenarios. It also provides user-friendly searching and data analysis modules that enable comprehensive annotation of genetic variants for specific populations. To meet a wide range of research requirements, AGIDB offers downloadable reference panels for each species in addition to its extensive dataset, variant decoding and utility tools. We hope that AGIDB will become a key foundational resource in genetics and breeding, providing robust support to researchers.

Graphical Abstract
In a recent paper by Sobhan Mosayebidorcheh and Taha Mosayebidorcheh, “Series solution of convective radiative conduction equation of the nonlinear fin with temperature dependent thermal ...conductivity”, Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer 55 (2012) 6589–6594, the temperature distribution and efficiency of convective–radiative straight fins were studied. Although the energy equation has been written correctly and therefore the obtained temperature field is correct, a significant mathematical error is identified on the fin efficiency. The present comment proves that the proposed fin efficiency in that paper is invalid, derives its correct form and shows that such an error may strongly affect the results.

Introducing porous conductive matrixes as a "host" for metallic lithium (Li) can restrain the growth of Li dendrites and accommodate the volume fluctuation during cycling. These two key factors ...severely impede the practical application of metallic Li anodes. However, uniformly pre-loading Li into such matrixes remains a great challenge. Herein, a facile thermal oxidation approach was employed to modify the surface of a Cu mesh from being lithiophobic to being lithiophilic. In particular, the Cu mesh was uniformly coated with a layer of CuO after thermal treatment and thus it became lithiophilic due to the strong interaction between CuO and molten Li. Through a melt infusion approach, metallic Li was homogeneously pre-loaded into the Cu mesh which could simultaneously induce a homogeneous distribution of the electrical field and accommodate the volume fluctuation of metallic Li during cycling. As a result, the Li-Cu composite anode demonstrated a stable cycling performance in a symmetric cell (1000 cycles at a current density of 10 mA cm
−2
) and a full cell paired with Li iron phosphate (90.8 mA h g
−1
at 5C after 1000 cycles, 77.6% of initial capacity). Such a facile and cost effective approach provides a solution for the mass production of stable Li anodes with emphasis on lithiophilicity conversion of the surface of Cu.

The highly‐efficient utilization of lignin and its derivatives is of great importance. Phenylacetaldehyde, as an important industrial raw material, is rarely reported to be directly obtained from ...biomass sources via thermal catalytic transformation. In this work, we found that NiOOH catalyst could efficiently catalyze the cleavage of β‐O‐4 lignin model compound to phenylacetaldehyde and phenol in water without need of any exogenous hydrogen. The catalytic mechanism study indicates that NiOOH could catalyze the elimination of Cα−OH to form an enol ether intermediate, which is then hydrated to phenylacetaldehyde and phenol.

Charge transfer multiplet (CTM) theory is a computationally undemanding and highly mature method for simulating the soft X‐ray spectra of first‐row transition metal complexes. However, CTM theory has ...seldom been applied to the simulation of excited‐state spectra. In this article, the CTM4XAS software package is extended to simulate M2,3‐ and L2,3‐edge spectra for the excited states of first‐row transition metals and also interpret CTM eigenfunctions in terms of Russell–Saunders term symbols. These new programs are used to reinterpret the recently reported excited‐state M2,3‐edge difference spectra of photogenerated ferrocenium cations and to propose alternative assignments for the electronic state of these cations responsible for the spectroscopic features. These new programs were also used to model the L2,3‐edge spectra of FeII compounds during nuclear relaxation following photoinduced spin crossover and to propose spectroscopic signatures for their vibrationally hot states.

•The co-nucleant was used to used prepare silver nanowire.•Ultra-thin silver nanowire with an average diameter of 26nm was prepared.•The effect of co-nucleant on the growing process ...of AgNW was proposed.•The film had a transmittance of 91.2% and sheet resistance of 10.1Ω.
Ultrathin, high aspect ratio silver nanowires synthesized in solution has attracted significant attention for fabricating optoelectronic devices with good properties and relatively low cost, and has been the most promising material to replace ITO. In this paper, a novel method is proposed to synthesis ultrathin nanowires through facile one-pot polyol method using KBr as a co-nucleant to NaCl. The effect of three common nucleants NaCl, FeCl3 and KBr on nucleation rate and product size were well studied. KBr is found to be beneficial for decreasing product size but unable to generate nanowires effectively alone. By adjusting the exact concentration of KBr, silver nanowires with an average length of 21μm and average diameter of 26nm could be synthesized conveniently. Conductive film prepared using these nanowires had transmittance over 90% and sheet resistance about 10Ω/□, which is better than the average level of common ITO-glass and highly potential to be applied in optoelectronic applications.

In article number 1902915, Kaili Zhang, Wenjun Zhang and co‐workers investigate the impacts of anions and concentrations of a variety of Zn‐containing aqueous solutions on Zn stripping/plating ...efficiency. It is demonstrated that dendrite growth and byproduct formation can be suppressed during Zn plating, and the competitive hydrogen evolution reaction is restrained by using a 3 m Zn(CF3SO3)2 electrolyte. As a result, a high Zn stripping/plating efficiency is achieved. Furthermore, based on this electrolyte, a novel hybrid supercapacitor comprising Zn foil and porous carbon derived from chemically activated graphene is developed which delivers high energy density and an ultra‐long lifespan.

Not only systolic blood pressure (SBP) but also diastolic blood pressure (DBP) increases the risk of recurrence in the short- or long-term outcomes of stroke. The interaction between DBP and ...antiplatelet treatment for China stroke patients is unclear. This multicenter, observational cohort study included 2976 minor ischemic stroke patients. Patients accepted single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) or dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after arrival, and baseline DBP levels were trichotomized into <90 mmHg, 90-110 mmHg and ≥110 mmHg. We explore the interaction effect between antiplatelet therapy and DBP on 90-days composite vascular events. A total of 257 (8.6%) patients reached a composite vascular event during follow-up. The interaction term between DBP levels and treatment group (SAPT vs. DAPT) was significant (P for interaction = 0.013). DAPT's adjusted HR for composite events in patients with DBP between 90 and 110 mmHg was 0.56 (95% confidence interval, 0.36 0.88; P = 0.011) and DBP ≥ 110 mmHg was 4.35 (95% confidence interval, 1.11-19.94; P = 0.046). The association between treatment and DBP was still consistent after propensity score matching of the baseline characteristics. The interaction term of DBP × treatment was not significant for the safety outcomes of severe bleeding (P for interaction = 0.301) or hemorrhage stroke (P for interaction = 0.831). In this cohort study based on the real world, patients with a DBP between 90 and 110 mmHg received a greater benefit from 90 days of DAPT than those with lower and higher baseline DBP.

The study focuses on the synthesis of mesoporous silica materials using liquid crystals (LCs) formed in an aqueous mixture of cationic cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and anionic sodium dodecyl ...sulfate (SDS) as templates and tetrathoxysilane (TEOS) as precursor. For this purpose, the phase behavior and range of LC areas were determined at different temperatures, concentrations, and ratios of CTAB/SDS. It was found that LCs became denser with the increased of concentration of surfactants. The mesoporous materials were synthesized using LCs as templates at various temperatures, surfactant concentrations, and pH values. The mesoporous samples were characterized using SEM and nitrogen sorption analysis. The research results showed that the structure of synthesized samples were lamellar and their surface areas increased significantly with the increase of temperature in the temperature range of LCs, reaching about 900 m
2
/g at 60°C. The surfactant concentrations affect the thickness of pore wall and thereby the specific surface area of products. The specific surface area and the order of mesoporous sample increased gradually with the decrease of pH.
