A Study on Residents' Satisfaction of "Healthy Houses" in Cities under the Background of Healthy China——Take Suzhou Industrial Park as an example
This paper takes Suzhou Industrial Park as the research case, collects data through residents' questionnaires, and constructs a structural equation model to explore residents' satisfaction with "healthy house" and its influencing factors, in order to provide reference for better construction of "healthy house".The research draws the following conclusions: 1. Residents' overall satisfaction with the "health cabin" is 70.46%, which is relatively high; 2. The residents are highly satisfied with the blood pressure meter, temperature detector, opening time and frequency of the "Health House", but are less satisfied with the publicity work, lectures and propaganda activities of the "Health House"; 3. Policy factors have a positive impact on hardware environment satisfaction and hardware environment satisfaction; 4. Objective factors have a positive impact on software environment satisfaction and hardware environment satisfaction
Proteome-wide Mendelian randomization identifies causal plasma proteins in lung cancer
Summary: Plasma proteins are promising biomarkers and potential drug targets in lung cancer. To evaluate the causal association between plasma proteins and lung cancer, we performed proteome-wide Mendelian randomization meta-analysis (PW-MR-meta) based on lung cancer genome-wide association studies (GWASs), protein quantitative trait loci (pQTLs) of 4,719 plasma proteins in deCODE and 4,775 in Fenland. Further, causal-protein risk score (CPRS) was developed based on causal proteins and validated in the UK Biobank. 270 plasma proteins were identified using PW-MR meta-analysis, including 39 robust causal proteins (both FDR-q < 0.05) and 78 moderate causal proteins (FDR-q < 0.05 in one and p < 0.05 in another). The CPRS had satisfactory performance in risk stratification for lung cancer (top 10% CPRS:Hazard ratio (HR) (95%CI):4.33(2.65–7.06)). The CPRS [AUC (95%CI): 65.93 (62.91–68.78)] outperformed the traditional polygenic risk score (PRS) [AUC (95%CI): 55.71(52.67–58.59)]. Our findings offer further insight into the genetic architecture of plasma proteins for lung cancer susceptibility
Green, Biodegradable, Underwater Superoleophobic Wood Sheet for Efficient Oil/Water Separation
Superwettable (by water or oil) materials
have been used in oil/water
separation to cope with the growing oily industrial sewage discharge
and oil spill accidents. The artificial superwetting materials for
oil/water separation that have been previously reported are expensive,
and using them usually causes secondary pollution, so practical, large-scale
uses of those materials are limited. Here, we find that wood sheet
shows underwater superoleophobicity and low oil adhesion in water,
resulting from its strong capacity of absorbing water. A through-microhole
array was created on the wood sheet surface by a simple mechanical
drilling process. The prewetted porous sheet had great ability to
separate the mixtures of water and oil with high separation efficiency.
Wood is a low cost, green, and natural eco-friendly material; therefore,
we believe that such a simple, low-cost, efficient, and green route
of large-scale oil/water separation has great potential to practically
solve the pollution problems caused by oil spill and oily industrial
wastewater
