peak bone mineral density (pbmd) is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors, genes explains most of variation. as the novel candidate genes catsperb and nr5a2 may have been associated with spinal pbmd in adult. this study was to investigate the relationship among these two genes^ pbmd and the life style factors in young female.the rs1298989 single nucleotide polymorphism (snp) of t...

Abstract In this study, the FLEXible PARTicle dispersion model (FLEXPART) is applied to determine moisture source of heavy precipitation in Xinjiang wet season (April–September) from 1979 2018. This investigated for different meteorological patterns categories based on self-organizing maps (SOM) method. The SOM results suggest that there are four main (N1, N2, N3 and N4) Xinjiang. These match s...

We report here the 4.29-Mb draft genome sequence of Myroides sp. N17-2, a new bacterium isolated from radiation-polluted soils in Xinjiang, Uyghur Autonomous Region, China. The acquisition of its genome will provide valuable information to reveal the relationship between radiation and multidrug resistance.

A Chinese human enterovirus 85 (HEV85) isolate, HTYT-ARL-AFP02F/XJ/CHN/2011, was isolated from a stool specimen of a child with acute flaccid paralysis in Xinjiang, China, in 2011. The complete genome sequence revealed that a natural intertypic recombination event had occurred between HEV85 and a previously undescribed serotype of HEV-B.

Regional carbon dioxide emissions study is necessary for China to realize the emissions mitigation. An environmental input–output structural decomposition analysis (IO-SDA) has been conducted in order to uncover the driving forces for the increment in energy-related carbon dioxide emissions in Xinjiang from both production and final demands perspectives from 1997 to 2007. According to our resea...

BACKGROUND Myopia is a public health problem worldwide and its incidence increases with age. The use of acupuncture to treat myopia is a common practice in China, however, the use of acupuncture to treat myopia is disputed in other parts of the world. This study aims to determine the safety of acupuncture to treat myopia and its efficacy over six months. METHODS/DESIGN A randomized, parallel,...

BACKGROUND Cervical cancer is one of the commonest causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The prevalence rate of cervical cancer in Uyghur women in Xinjiang Autonomous Region of China has been remarkably higher than the ethnic groups living in the same region. This study aimed to assess the knowledge level and attitude of cervical cancer and its issues among the Uyghur women in Xinjiang pro...

Under the background of intensifying global change, frequent occurrence agrometeorological disasters has an adverse impact on social economy. Low-temperature weather in spring is one main Xinjiang. Studying spatial and temporal characteristics low temperatures Xinjiang great significance. However, research spatiotemporal variation frost arid areas currently lacking, which limits our understandi...
