RESUMO
Non-optimal ambient temperatures are risk factors for myocardial infarction (MI) and urban-rural temperature differences in the context of climate change may have caused and will lead to differential association between temperature and MI. We collected daily mean temperature and daily MI deaths from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2020 in Anhui Province, China. A distributed lag nonlinear model was performed to estimate the area-specific association of heat and cold (defined as the 2.5th and 97.5th percentile of the daily mean temperature) with MI mortality; the random-effects meta-analysis was then used to pool the effects of cold and heat. We found the risk of MI death due to cold was higher in rural areas [relative risk (RR): 1.13, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.02-1.26, lag0) than in urban areas (RR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.80-1.21, lag0), whereas the risk of MI death associated with heat was higher in urban areas (RR: 1.14, 95% CI: 1.03-1.27, lag0) than in rural areas (RR: 1.04, 95% CI: 0.99-1.10, lag0). Our findings may help to develop targeted protective strategies to reduce the adverse effects of cold and heat on cardiovascular disease.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: Extreme temperatures and air pollution are increasingly important risk factors for human health in the background of climate change, with limited evidence available for neurological disorders. This study intended to investigate the short-term effects of extreme temperatures on childhood epilepsy and explore the potential modifying effect of air pollution. METHODS: Daily childhood epilepsy hospitalization, meteorological and air pollution data were collected from 10 cities in Anhui Province of China during 2016-2018. We firstly employed a space-time-stratified case-crossover design and conditional logistic regression model to fit the short-term relationship between temperature and epilepsy. Then, we conducted stratified analyses by the level of air pollution and individual characteristics. RESULTS: Both extreme heat and extreme cold increased the risk of hospitalization for childhood epilepsy. The effect of extreme heat [97.5th vs. minimum hospitalization temperature (MHT)] on hospitalization was acute and emerged at lag0 [OR: 1.229 (95 %CI: 1.035 to 1.459)], while the effect of extreme cold (2.5th vs. MHT) was delayed and appeared at lag5 [OR: 1.098 (95 %CI: 1.043 to 1.156)]. We also found children aged 6-18 years were more susceptible to extreme cold than children aged 0-5 years. Besides, extreme heat and cold effects differed by the level of air pollutants. CONCLUSION: This study suggests that extreme temperatures might be the novel but currently neglected risk factor for childhood epilepsy, and air pollution could further amplify the adverse effect of temperature.
RESUMO
Cryogenic ultra-stable lasers have extremely low thermal noise limits and frequency drifts, but they are more seriously affected by vibration noise from cryostats. Main material candidates for cryogenic ultra-stable cavities include silicon and sapphire. Although sapphire has many excellent properties at low temperature, the development of sapphire-based cavities is less advanced than that of silicon-based. Using a homemade cryogenic sapphire cavity, we develop an ultra-stable laser source with a frequency instability of 2(1) × 10-16. This is the best frequency instability level among similar systems using cryogenic sapphire cavities reported so far. Low vibration performance of the cryostat is demonstrated with a two-stage vibration isolation, and the vibration suppression is optimized by tuning the mixing ratio of the gas-liquid-helium. With this technique, the linear power spectral densities of vibrations at certain frequencies higher than tens of hertz are suppressed by two orders of magnitude in all directions.
RESUMO
Surface biofouling induced by the undesired nonspecific adsorption of foulants (e.g., coexisting proteins and cells) in food matrices is a major issue of sensors for food analysis, hindering their reliability and accuracy of sensing. This issue can be addressed by developing antifouling strategies to prevent or alleviate nonspecific binding. Chemical antifouling strategies involve the use of chemical modifiers (i.e., antifouling materials) to strongly hydrate the surface and reduce surface biofouling. Through appropriate immobilization approaches, antifouling materials can be tethered onto sensors to form antifouling surfaces with well-ordered structures, balanced surface charges, and appropriate surface density and thickness. A rational antifouling surface can reduce the matrix effect, simplify sample pretreatment, and improve analytical performance. This review summarizes recent developments in chemical antifouling strategies in sensing. Surface antifouling mechanisms and common antifouling materials are described, and factors that may influence the antifouling effects of antifouling surfaces and approaches incorporating antifouling materials onto sensing surfaces are highlighted. Moreover, the specific applications of antifouling sensors in food analysis are introduced. Finally, we provide an outlook on future developments in antifouling sensors for food analysis.

In this work, a simple, high-throughput, and sensitive analytical method based on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and principal component analysis (PCA) was fabricated for simultaneous and rapid determination of three polychlorinated phenols (PCPs) including 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP), 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (2,4,5-TCP), and 2,3,4,6-tetrachlorophenol (2,3,4,6-TeCP). The aggregated Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) induced by inorganic salt ions were used as sensitive SERS substrate, and the electromagnetic field distribution of AgNPs with different distances was simulated by finite difference time domain (FDTD) to verify the theory feasibility. The high throughput and rapid detection can be achieved by commercial 96-pore plate. Under the optimum conditions, the linear relationship between the Raman intensity and the concentrations of PCPs was established with satisfied correlation coefficient. The limits of detection (LOD) for 2,4-DCP, 2,4,5-TCP, and 2,3,4,6-TeCP are 0.27 mg L-1, 0.09 mg L-1, and 0.10 mg L-1 by rules of 3σ, respectively. The simultaneous quantitative analysis can be achieved thanks to the independent Raman characteristic peaks of three PCPs. Afterwards, the PCA method was used to eliminate the limitations of overlapping of characteristic Raman peaks in structural analogues of 2,4-DCP, 2,4,5-TCP, and 2,3,4,6-TeCP. The recovery experiments including single PCPs and mixed PCP samples show satisfied recoveries ranging from 85.0 to 113.9% and 80.4 to 114.0% with RSDs in range of 0.4-9.5% and 1.1-10.7%, respectively. The proposed method shows great potentials in rapid, high-throughput, and sensitive monitoring of the contaminants in water and pesticide samples with similar structure. Here, we introduced aggregated Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) induced by inorganic salt ion for simultaneous, rapid, and sensitive determination of polychlorinated phenols (PCPs) including 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP), 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (2,4,5-TCP), and 2,3,4,6-tetrachlorophenol (2,3,4,6-TeCP) by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) combined with principal component analysis (PCA). The AgNPs induced by inorganic salt ions were used as sensitive SERS substrate, and the electromagnetic field distribution of AgNPs with different distances was simulated by finite difference time domain (FDTD) to verify the theory feasibility. The PCA method was used to eliminate the limitations of overlapping of characteristic Raman peaks in structural analogues of 2,4-DCP, 2,4,5-TCP, and 2,3,4,6-TeCP. The proposed method shows great potentials in rapid, high-throughput, and sensitive monitoring of the contaminants in water and pesticide samples with similar structure.
RESUMO
State-of-the-art laser frequency stability has been pushed to the 10-17 level. The laser reference cavity is typically nested in a multi-layer thermal enclosure to increase vacuum thermal time constant and thermally controlled at the zero-thermal-expansion temperature to reduce the external temperature fluctuation effect. It is rather time consuming to accurately determine the zero-thermal-expansion temperature for a large thermal time constant system. Here we develop a fast method for measuring the zero-thermal-expansion temperature of the cavity by relying on just one single temperature scan. We first develop a theoretical model to predict the performance of the laser locked to the reference cavity, and then construct an evaluation system for verification of the model. The zero-thermal-expansion temperature of a 30-cm cavity is measured to be 4.3±0.5 °C. The fast and high precision method for determining the zero-thermal-expansion temperature will be valuable in improving long-term frequency stabilities of cavity stabilized lasers.
RESUMO
Matrix interference resulting from the nonspecific adsorption of non-target components, particularly proteins (fouling), onto sensor surfaces poses a persistent challenge in electrochemical detection of food hazards. The development of antifouling sensor surfaces presents a viable approach to mitigate nonspecific adsorption. In this study, a novel antifouling electrochemical aptasensor, utilizing a zwitterionic polymer, was developed for the sensitive, accurate, and selective detection of tetracycline (TC) in milk. This sensor employs a poly (dopamine)-poly (sulfobetaine methacrylate) (PDA-PSBMA) antifouling copolymer, which is synthesized through an in-situ initiated copolymerization of dopamine on the sensor's surface. Subsequently, the thiol-containing aptamers were immobilized onto the PDA-PSBMA coating through a Michael addition reaction with the poly(dopamine). The resulting antifouling electrochemical aptasensor exhibited robust antifouling performance in various single protein solutions and diluted milk samples, coupled with sensitive and selective recognition of TC. The sensor demonstrated a broad linear response range of 0.1-1000.0 ng mL-1 and a low limit of detection (LOD) of 68.0 pg mL-1. The antifouling electrochemical aptasensor proved effective in assaying TC in diluted milk, with recoveries ranging from 100.0 % to 104.4 %, eliminating the need for additional pretreatments due to its exceptional resistance to nonspecific adhesion.

INTRODUCTION: Ambient heat exposure is a risk factor for suicide in many regions of the world. However, little is known about the extent to which life expectancy has been shortened by heat-related suicide deaths. This study aimed to evaluate the short-term effects of heat on suicide mortality and quantify the reduced life expectancy associated with heat in China. METHODS: A time-stratified, case-crossover analysis in 2023 was performed during the warm season (May to September) from 2016 to 2020 to assess the short-term association between extreme heat (the 95th percentile of mean temperature) and suicide mortality in Anhui Province, China. A subgroup analysis was performed according to sex, age, marital status, suicide type, and region. The attributable fraction and years of life lost due to heat were calculated, and the heat-related life expectancy loss was estimated. RESULTS: This study included 9,642 suicide deaths, with an average age of 62.4 years and 58.8% of suicides in males. Suicide risk was associated with an 80.7% increase (95% confidence interval [CI]: 21.4%-68.9%) after exposure to extreme heat (30.6°C) in comparison to daily minimum temperature (7.9°C). Subgroup analysis revealed that heat-related suicide risk was more prominent in the married population than in the unmarried population. Heat was estimated to be associated with 31.7% (95% CI: 18.0%-43.2%) of the suicides, corresponding to 7.0 years of loss in life expectancy for each decedent. CONCLUSIONS: Heat exposure was associated with an increased risk of suicide and reduced life expectancy. However, further prospective studies are required to confirm this relationship.

Mental disorders (MDs) can be triggered by adverse weather conditions and particulate matter (PM) such as PM2.5 and PM10 (aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 µm and ≤10 µm). However, there is a dearth of evidence on the role of smaller PM (e.g. PM1, aerodynamic diameter ≤1 µm) and the potential modifying effects of weather conditions. We aimed to collect daily data on emergency department visits and hospitalisations for schizophrenia-, mood-, and stress-related disorders in a densely populated Chinese city (Hefei) between 2016 and 2019. A time-stratified case-crossover analysis was used to examine the short-term association of MDs with PM1, PM2.5, and PM10. The potential modifying effects of air temperature conditions (cold and warm days) were also explored. The three size-fractioned PMs were all associated with an increased risk of MDs; however, the association differed between emergency department visit and hospitalisation. Specifically, PM1 was primarily associated with an increased risk of emergency department visit, whereas PM2.5 was primarily associated with an increased risk of hospitalisation, and PM10 was associated with an increased risk of both emergency department visit and hospitalisation. The PM-MD association appeared to be greatest (although not significant) for PM1 (odds ratio range: 1.014-1.055), followed by PM2.5 (odds ratio range: 1.001-1.009) and PM10 (odds ratio range: 1.001-1.006). Furthermore, the PM-MD association was observed on cold days; notably, the association between PM and schizophrenia-related disorders was significant on both cold and warm days. Our results suggest that the smaller the PM, the greater the risk of MDs, and that the PM-MD association could be determined by air temperature conditions.

We report on the development and performance evaluation of an ultra-stable laser for an 27Al+ optical clock. After a series of noise suppressions, especially the vibrational and temperature fluctuation noise, the 30 cm long cavity stabilized laser obtains a frequency instability of 1.3 × 10-16 @1 s. This result is predicted by noise summation and confirmed by the three-cornered hat method. The 27Al+ optical clock transition is also used to characterize the laser frequency noise, and consistent results are yielded. This is the first reported instance of using single ion optical clocks to measure the frequency noise of ultra-stable lasers, as far as we know. With the implementation of the ultra-stable clock laser, an ultra-narrow linewidth clock transition of 2.8 Hz is obtained.
RESUMO
Despite research on anti-bullying interventions, there is no systemic approach or resources for teachers to address ethnic and race-related bullying in schools. In this article, we selectively reviewed theories and programs to help teachers identify and address ethnic bullying in their classrooms. We provide recommendations for workshops (e.g., cultural awareness training, empathy-building activities, bystander intervention, and stigma-based intervention). These anti-ethnic bullying workshops should promote understanding of different cultures, strengthen empathy for those who are different, encourage bystanders to take action, and reduce stigma and stereotypes. Through the sharing of diverse perspectives, expertise, and experiences, we hope this article can cultivate interactive dialogues and collaborations between educators and researchers to effectively address ethnic and race-related bullying.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Cerebral ischemic stroke is attributed to paradoxical cerebral embolism. Pulmonary arteriovenous fistula (PAVF) is a rare potential cause of cerebral ischemic stroke, and cerebral ischemic stroke induced by PAVF in children is rare. CASE SUMMARY: We report a case of right PAVF that presented as a transient ischemic attack (TIA) in a 13-year-old boy. The patient underwent embolization therapy and remained clinically stable for 2 years after treatment. CONCLUSION: TIA induced by PAVF in children is rare, lacks typical clinical manifestations, and should not be ignored.
RESUMO
Food may be contaminated by various hazardous substances in all stages of the food supply chain, which may pose a wide variety of human health risks. The ability to construct sensors capable of highly selective analysis in complex food matrix could offer strong support for guaranteeing food safety. The design, preparation, and introduction of biomimetic functional materials as antifouling materials or recognition receptors provide new ideas for further improvement of the anti-interference and specificity of sensory system. Herein, biomimetic functional materials commonly used in sensor preparation, including biomimetic antifouling materials [poly(ethylene glycol), zwitterionic polymers, and synthetic antifouling peptides] and biomimetic recognition receptors (molecularly imprinted polymers, aptamers, and mimetic recognition peptides) are reviewed. The mechanisms, advantages, limitations of these biomimetic functional materials and the applications of biomimetic functional material-based sensors in food safety analysis are summarized. Finally, the challenges and prospects of sensors based on biomimetic functional materials are analyzed.

BACKGROUND: There is growing evidence in support of a short-term association between ambient temperature and cardiac arrest attacks that is a serious manifestation of cardiovascular disease and has a high incidence and low survival rate. However, it remains unrecognized about the hazardous temperature exposure types, exposure risk magnitude, and vulnerable populations. OBJECTIVES: We comprehensively summarize prior epidemiological studies looking at the short-term associations of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) with various temperature exposures among different populations. METHODS: We searched PubMed and Web of Science databases from inception to October 2021 for eligible English language. Temperature exposure was categorized into three types: heat (included high temperature, extreme heat, and heatwave), cold (included low temperature and extreme cold), and temperature variation (included diurnal temperature range and temperature change between two adjacent days). Meta-analysis weighted by inverse variance was used to pool effect estimates. RESULTS: This study included 15 studies from 8 countries, totaling around 1 million OHCA events. Extreme heat and extreme cold were significantly associated with an increased risk of OHCA, and the pooled relative risks (RRs) were 1.071 [95 % confidence interval (CI): 1.019-1.126] and 1.662 (95%CI: 1.138-2.427), respectively. The risk of OHCA was also elevated by heatwaves (RR = 1.248, 95%CI: 1.091-1.427) and more intensive heatwaves had a greater effect. Notably, the elderly and males seemed to be more vulnerable to the effects of heat and cold. However, we did not observe a significant association between temperature variation and the risk of OHCA (1.005, 95%CI: 0.999-1.012). CONCLUSION: Short-term exposure to heat and cold may be novel risk factors for OHCA. Considering available studies in limited regions, the temperature effect on OHCA should be urgently confirmed in different regions.

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of global epidemiological studies of air pollution and angina pectoris, aiming to explore the deleterious air pollutant(s) and vulnerable sub-populations. PubMed and Web of Science databases were searched for eligible articles published between database inception and October 2021. Meta-analysis weighted by inverse-variance was utilized to pool effect estimates based on the type of air pollutant, including particulate matters (PM2.5 and PM10: particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter ≤ 2.5 µm and ≤ 10 µm), gaseous pollutants (NO2: nitrogen dioxide; CO: carbon monoxide; SO2: sulfur dioxide, and O3: ozone). Study-specific effect estimates were standardized and calculated with percentage change of angina pectoris for each 10 µg/m3 increase in air pollutant concentration. Twelve studies involving 663,276 angina events from Asia, America, Oceania, and Europe were finally included. Meta-analysis showed that each 10 µg/m3 increase in PM2.5 and PM10 concentration was associated with an increase of 0.66% (95%CI: 0.58%, 0.73%; p < 0.001) and 0.57% (95%CI: 0.20%, 0.94%; p = 0.003) in the risk of angina pectoris on the second day of exposure. Adverse effects were also observed for NO2 (0.67%, 95%CI: 0.33%, 1.02%; p < v0.001) on the second day, CO (0.010%, 95%CI: 0.006%, 0.014%; p < 0.001). The elderly and patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) appeared to be at higher risk of angina pectoris. Our findings suggest that short-term exposure to PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and CO was associated with an increased risk of angina pectoris, which may have implications for cardiologists and patients to prevent negative cardiovascular outcomes.

In this work, a hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN)/AuAg nanoalloy hybrids (NAHs) was synthesized to fabricate h-BN/Au1Ag3 membrane as a solid surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrate for sensitive SERS detection of melamine. The AuAg nanoalloys were in situ grown on h-BN by chemical reduction method, and the Au/Ag molar ratio was tuned to achieve optimal SERS performance. After the SERS performance of h-BN/AuAg NAHs with different Au/Ag ratios was analyzed, h-BN/Au1Ag3 NAHs were chosen for SERS analysis. The h-BN/Au1Ag3 membrane can be obtained through simple filtration of h-BN/Au1Ag3 NAHs on chromatographic paper. As expected, the solid SERS substrates of h-BN/Au1Ag3 membrane were uniform and demonstrated good selectivity, repeatability and reproducibility for SERS detection of melamine. The results demonstrate that h-BN/Au1Ag3 membrane exhibited high SERS activity for 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) with limit of detection (LOD) at 1.0 ng L-1, and its analytical enhancement factor (AEF) reached 3.6 × 108. The possible enhancement mechanism, including electromagnetic mechanisms (EM) and chemical mechanisms (CM) were illustrated by finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) and density functional theory (DFT) simulations in detail, respectively. The concentration of melamine in the 0.05-5.0 mg L-1 range showed good linear relationship (R2 = 0.9940) with SERS intensity with LOD of 0.01 mg L-1. Finally, the recoveries of melamine in liquid milk samples are 87.7-105.7% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) in range of 0.6-2.6%, providing precise safety evaluation of melamine in milk samples.

BACKGROUND: A growing number of studies have reported an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and respiratory disease (RD) within hours after exposure to ambient air pollution or temperature. We assemble published evidence on the sub-daily associations of CVD and RD with ambient air pollution and temperature. METHODS: Databases of PubMed and Web of Science were searched for original case-crossover and time-series designs of English articles examining the intra-day effects of ambient air pollution [particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5), ≤10 µm (PM10), 2.5-10µm (PM10-2.5), and < 7 µm (SPM), O3, SO2, NO2, CO, and NO] and temperatures (heat and cold) on cardiorespiratory diseases within 24 h after exposure in the general population by comparing with exposure at different exposure levels or periods. Meta-analyses were conducted to pool excess risks (ERs, absolute percentage increase in risk) of CVD and RD morbidities associated with an increase of 10 µg/m3 in particulate matters, 0.1 ppm in CO, and 10 ppb in other gaseous pollutants. FINDINGS: Final analysis included thirty-three papers from North America, Europe, Oceania, and Asia. Meta-analysis found an increased risk of total CVD morbidity within 3 h after exposure to PM2.5 [ER%: 2.65% (95% CI: 1.00% to 4.34%)], PM10-2.5 [0.31% (0.02% to 0.59%)], O3 [1.42% (0.14% to 2.73%)], and CO [0.41% (0.01% to 0.81%)]. The risk of total RD morbidity elevated at lag 7-12 h after exposure to PM2.5 [0.69% (0.14% to 1.24%)] and PM10 [0.38% (0.02% to 0.73%)] and at lag 12-24 h after exposure to SO2 [2.68% (0.94% to 4.44%)]. Cause-specific CVD analysis observed an increased risk of myocardial infarction morbidity within 6 h after exposure to PM2.5, PM10, and NO2, and an increased risk of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest morbidity within 12 h after exposure to CO. Risk of total CVD also increased within 24 h after exposure to heat. INTERPRETATION: This study supports a sudden risk increase of cardiorespiratory diseases within a few hours after exposure to air pollution or heat, and some acute and highly lethal diseases such as myocardial infarction and cardiac arrest could be affected within a shorter time.

Chemodivergent coupling of α-acylketene dithioacetals with diazo compounds has been realized under catalyst control. The Ru(II)-catalyzed C-H activation occurred at the olefinic position, and 1:2 coupling with α-diazoketoesters leads to furfurylation. In contrast, the Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H functionalization occurred at both the olefinic and the ortho C(aryl)-H positions, and [4 + 2] annulation afforded naphthalenones. Synthetic applications have been performed to demonstrate the usefulness of the coupling system.
