Quantitative evaluation of the coupling coordination degree (CCD) between regional haze disaster risk index (HRI) and urbanization development level (UDI) is great significance for realization sustainable goals. Given lack combination remote sensing statistical data to evaluate CCD two systems, Chinese mainland’s 31 provinces autonomous regions were taken their HRI UDI by building systems. Then...

BACKGROUND As climate change increases the frequency and intensity of extreme heat events researchers and public health officials must work towards understanding the causes and outcomes of heat-related morbidity and mortality. While there have been many studies on both heat-related illness (HRI), there are fewer on heat-related morbidity than on heat-related mortality. OBJECTIVE To identify i...

Background: It has long been recognized that the intake of foods contaminated with chemicals, especially heavy metals can give rise to acute intoxications. The toxic properties of heavy metals are due to their long biological half-lives, as well as non-biodegradable and persistent composition. Considering the importance of the cereal products in the human diet, the present investigation was car...

In this paper, we present quantitative constraints on the scalar eld potential for a general class of in ationary models. (1) We rst consider the reconstruction of the in ationary potential for given primordial density uctuation spectra. Our work di ers from previous work on reconstruction in that we nd a semi-analytic solution for the potential for the case of density uctuations with power-law...

BACKGROUND Despite the benefits of cardiac rehabilitation, uptake and adherence remain suboptimal. With the advent of NHS Health Checks, primary prevention programmes have also been advocated, but little is known about uptake and adherence rates. This study examined rates and predictors of adherence amongst patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and those at high multifactorial risk (HRI) a...

We present the ROSAT HRI X-ray measurements of 19 spectroscopically confirmed optically-selected QSOs in the 12′ radius region in the Selected Area 57. The optical-to-Xray spectral index αox ranges from 1.25 to 1.7, consistent with brighter QSOs. We have investigated the relationship between soft X-ray emission observed with the ROSAT HRI and optical colors (UJFN) of optically-selected QSOs in ...

Constant use of treated wastewater (TWW) for irrigation over prolonged periods may cause buildup of heavy metals up to toxic levels for plants and animals, and entails environmental hazards in different aspects. However, application of TWW on agricultural land might be an effective and sustainable strategy in arid and semi-arid countries where fresh water resources are under great pressure, as ...

abstract aims: spices are sources of many bioactive compounds that can improve the taste of food as well as affecting the digestion and metabolism. along with that, they may also contain some substances as heavy metals, which have harmful effects on the body. the aim of present study was to assess the potential health risk of cr, cu, fe and zn contents of cardamom, curry powder and turmeric in ...

Objective: An underexplored area in Library and Information Science (LIS) is the development of educational offerings partnerships Health-Related Informatics (HRI) (e.g., bioinformatics, clinical informatics, health informatics). The purpose this study to identify which disciplines are collaborating HRI education how developed. Methods: This was conducted two parts: a website review survey. Sev...

Heme-regulated eIF2α kinase (Hri) is necessary for balanced synthesis of heme and globin. In addition, Hri deficiency exacerbates the phenotypic severity of β-thalassemia intermedia in mice. Activation of Hri during heme deficiency and in β-thalassemia increases eIF2α phosphorylation and inhibits globin translation. Under endoplasmic reticulum stress and nutrient starvation, eIF2α phosphorylati...
