China just stopped exporting two minerals the world ’s chipmakers need
Editor’s Note: Sign up for CNN’s Meanwhile in China newsletter which explores what you need to know about the country’s rise and how it impacts the world. China’s exports of two rare minerals essential for manufacturing semiconductors fell to zero in August, a month after Beijing imposed curbs on…#beijing #heyadong #eurasiagroup #shanghaimetalmarket #netherlands #micron #huawei #smic #jefferies

Endophytic Fungus Talaromyces sp. MR1 Promotes the Growth and Cadmium Uptake of Arabidopsis thaliana L. Under Cadmium Stress
Curr Microbiol. 2023 Sep 21;80(11):346. doi: 10.1007/s00284-023-03453-3.ABSTRACTEndophytes play essential roles in plant growth under metal(loid)s stress. An endophytic fungus strain MR1 was isolated from the roots of Miscanthus floridulus collected from a lead-zinc mining area (Huayuan, China), which could produce indole-3-acetic acid and have Cadmium (Cd) tolerance. Further 18S rRNA sequencing analysis showed that it was highly similar (99.83%) to Talaromyces pinophilus. In pot experiments, we explored the effects of strain MR1 on the growth and Cd uptake of a wide-type Arabidopsis thaliana under low (LC) and high (HC) C...

Exploring associations between built environment and crash risk of children in school commuting
Accid Anal Prev. 2023 Sep 18;193:107287. doi: 10.1016/j.aap.2023.107287. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTUnderstanding how built environment are associated with crash risk (CR) in school commuting is essential to improving travel safety through land use and transportation policies. Scholars often assume that this relationship is consistent across space, but this may lead to inconsistent estimates. To address this issue, using data in Shenzhen, China, the data covers traffic accident data of children taken from police incident reports and supplemented with local land use, transportation network and specific school information...

Classification and identification of mosquitoes in China based on rDNA 28S D5 region
In conclusion, the rDNA 28S D5 region could effectively distinguish Culex, Aedes, Armigeres, and Anopheles species at the lower category level, demonstrating its potential as a mini-DNA barcode for mosquito identification.PMID:37730192 | DOI:10.1016/j.actatropica.2023.107028

Multidimensional Analysis of a Cell-Free DNA Whole Methylome Sequencing Assay for Early Detection of Gastric Cancer: Protocol for an Observational Case-Control Study
CONCLUSIONS: This is the first registered case-control study designed to investigate a stacked ensemble model integrating several cfDNA features generated from a bisulfite-free whole methylome sequencing assay. These features include methylation patterns, fragmentation profiles, and chromosomal copy number changes, with the aim of identifying the GC population. This study will determine whether multidimensional analysis of cfDNA will prove to be an effective strategy for distinguishing patients with GC from nonmalignant individuals within the Chinese population. We anticipate the THEMIS model will complement the standard-o...

Mechanism of Bazhen decoction in the treatment of colorectal cancer based on network pharmacology, molecular docking, and experimental validation
ConclusionBZD treats CRC through multiple components, targets, and metabolic pathways. BZD can reverse the abnormal expression of genes such as PI3K, AKT, MYC, EGFR, HIF-1A, VEGFR, JUN, STAT3, CASP3, and TP53, and suppresses the progression of colorectal cancer by regulating signaling pathways such as PI3K-AKT, P53, and VEGF. Furthermore, BZD can increase the number of T cells and promote T cell activation in tumor-bearing mice, enhancing the immune function against colorectal cancer. Among them, quercetin, kaempferol, licochalcone A, naringenin, and formaronetin are more highly predictive components related to the T cell ...

Antibiotics Destroy Memories?
Even in my earliest days of practicing medicine, I was never a big fan of prescribing antibiotics – except, of course, in cases of extreme or life-threatening infections.
Because even back then, I was concerned about the damage these drugs could cause to your gut.
That’s because trillions of microscopic bacteria – some that protect against certain diseases and some that can cause disease – live in your microbiome and exist in a delicate balance with each other.
The problem is that antibiotics can’t distinguish between so-called “good” bacteria and the “bad” ones causing the infection.
These drugs kill eve...

Examining the subjective fairness of at-home and online tests: Taking < i > Duolingo English Test < /i > as an example
by Don Yao
The Duolingo English Test, a language proficiency test offered online, is now getting prevalent worldwide. A recap of existing literature denotes that there is an insufficient examination of the DET, particularly on its issues of fairness. Besides, empirical test fairness research had mainly focus ed on the objective aspect but may have overlooked the importance of its subjective aspect. Additionally, compared with in-person tests, the fairness research of at-home tests lags far behind. Therefore, the current study investigated the DET fairness from test takers’ perspectives. A DET Fairness Questionnaire base...

Fumigant activity and transcriptomic analysis of two plant essential oils against the tea green leafhopper, Empoasca onukii Matsuda
The tea green leafhopper, Empoasca (Matsumurasca) onukii Matsuda, R., 1952 (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), is currently one of the most devastating pests in the Chinese tea industry. The long-term use of chemical pesticides has a negative impact on human health, impeding the healthy and sustainable development of the tea industry in this region. Therefore, there is a need for non-chemical insecticides to control E. onukii in tea plants. The essential oils from plants have been identified for their potential insecticidal ability; however, there is a lack of knowledge regarding the effect of plant essential oils on E. onukii and ...

Genes, Vol. 14, Pages 1810: Genome-Wide Identification of BrCAX Genes and Functional Analysis of BrCAX1 Involved in Ca2+ Transport and Ca2+ Deficiency-Induced Tip-Burn in Chinese Cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis)
In this study, eight genes of the BrCAX family were genome-widely identified in Chinese cabbage. These BrCAX proteins contained conserved Na_Ca_ex domain and belonged to five members of the CAX family. Molecular evolutionary analysis and sequence alignment revealed the evolutionary conservation of BrCAX family genes. Expression profiling demonstrated that eight BrCAX genes exhibited differential expression in different tissues and under heat stress. Furthermore, Ca2+ deficiency treatment induced the typical symptoms of tip-burn in Chinese cabbage seedlings and a significant decrease in total Ca2+ content in both roots and ...
