文摘Landslides pose a formidable natural hazard across the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau(QTP),endangering both ecosystems and human life.Identifying the driving factors behind landslides and accurately assessing susceptibility are key to mitigating disaster risk.This study integrated multi-source historical landslide data with 15 predictive factors and used several machine learning models—Random Forest(RF),Gradient Boosting Regression Trees(GBRT),Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost),and Categorical Boosting(CatBoost)—to generate susceptibility maps.The Shapley additive explanation(SHAP)method was applied to quantify factor importance and explore their nonlinear effects.The results showed that:(1)CatBoost was the best-performing model(CA=0.938,AUC=0.980)in assessing landslide susceptibility,with altitude emerging as the most significant factor,followed by distance to roads and earthquake sites,precipitation,and slope;(2)the SHAP method revealed critical nonlinear thresholds,demonstrating that historical landslides were concentrated at mid-altitudes(1400-4000 m)and decreased markedly above 4000 m,with a parallel reduction in probability beyond 700 m from roads;and(3)landslide-prone areas,comprising 13%of the QTP,were concentrated in the southeastern and northeastern parts of the plateau.By integrating machine learning and SHAP analysis,this study revealed landslide hazard-prone areas and their driving factors,providing insights to support disaster management strategies and sustainable regional planning.
文摘BACKGROUND Esophageal cancer is highly malignant and frequently metastasizes to bones.Concomitant depression worsens prognosis;however,its incidence and determinants in this specific population remain poorly defined.AIM To determine the incidence of depression and its independent risk factors in patients with esophageal cancer and bone metastasis.METHODS A total of 100 consecutive eligible patients admitted between March 2022 and March 2025 were recruited.Depression was assessed with the Beck Depression Inventory-II;scores>4 defined the depression group(n=42)and scores≤4 the non-depression group(n=58).Demographic,clinical,and laboratory variables were compared between the groups.Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify independent risk factors.RESULTS Depression prevalence was 42.0%(42/100).Univariate analysis demonstrated significant differences in monthly per-capita household income,education level,social support,sleep disorders,and serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(all P<0.05);no differences were observed in sex,age,tumor characteristics,or other laboratory indices(all P>0.05).Multivariable analysis revealed the following independent risk factors for depression:Low income[odds ratio(OR)=2.66,95%confidence interval(CI):1.17-6.03],low education(OR=2.46,95%CI:1.08-5.61),low social support(OR=5.10,95%CI:1.81-14.39),sleep disorders(OR=2.79,95%CI:1.23-6.35),and elevated high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(OR=1.31 per unit increase,95%CI:1.18-1.46).CONCLUSION Depression is common among patients with esophageal cancer and bone metastasis.Low socioeconomic status,limited education,insufficient social support,sleep disturbances,and systemic inflammation were independent predictors.Interventions that address these modifiable factors may reduce depression risk in this population.

文摘Retinal aging has been recognized as a significant risk factor for various retinal disorders,including diabetic retinopathy,age-related macular degeneration,and glaucoma,following a growing understanding of the molecular underpinnings of their development.This comprehensive review explores the mechanisms of retinal aging and investigates potential neuroprotective approaches,focusing on the activation of transcription factor EB.Recent meta-analyses have demonstrated promising outcomes of transcription factor EB-targeted strategies,such as exercise,calorie restriction,rapamycin,and metformin,in patients and animal models of these common retinal diseases.The review critically assesses the role of transcription factor EB in retinal biology during aging,its neuroprotective effects,and its therapeutic potential for retinal disorders.The impact of transcription factor EB on retinal aging is cell-specific,influencing metabolic reprogramming and energy homeostasis in retinal neurons through the regulation of mitochondrial quality control and nutrient-sensing pathways.In vascular endothelial cells,transcription factor EB controls important processes,including endothelial cell proliferation,endothelial tube formation,and nitric oxide levels,thereby influencing the inner blood-retinal barrier,angiogenesis,and retinal microvasculature.Additionally,transcription factor EB affects vascular smooth muscle cells,inhibiting vascular calcification and atherogenesis.In retinal pigment epithelial cells,transcription factor EB modulates functions such as autophagy,lysosomal dynamics,and clearance of the aging pigment lipofuscin,thereby promoting photoreceptor survival and regulating vascular endothelial growth factor A expression involved in neovascularization.These cell-specific functions of transcription factor EB significantly impact retinal aging mechanisms encompassing proteostasis,neuronal synapse plasticity,energy metabolism,microvasculature,and inflammation,ultimately offering protection against retinal aging and diseases.The review emphasizes transcription factor EB as a potential therapeutic target for retinal diseases.Therefore,it is imperative to obtain well-controlled direct experimental evidence to confirm the efficacy of transcription factor EB modulation in retinal diseases while minimizing its risk of adverse effects.

文摘The scientific assessment of ecosystem ser-vice value(ESV)plays a critical role in regional ecologi-cal protection and management,rational land use planning,and the establishment of ecological security barriers.The ecosystem service value of the Northeast Forest Belt from 2005 to 2020 was assessed,focusing on spatial–temporal changes and the driving forces behind these dynamics.Using multi-source data,the equivalent factor method,and geo-graphic detectors,we analyzed natural and socio-economic factors affecting the region.which was crucial for effective ecological conservation and land-use planning.Enhanced the effectiveness of policy formulation and land use plan-ning.The results show that the ESV of the Northeast Forest Belt exhibits an overall increasing trend from 2005 to 2020,with forests and wetlands contributing the most.However,there are significant differences between forest belts.Driven by natural and socio-economic factors,the ESV of forest belts in Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces showed significant growth.In contrast,the ESV of Forest Belts in Liaoning and Inner Mongolia of China remains relatively stable,but the spatial differentiation within these regions is characterized by significant clustering of high-value and low-value areas.Furthermore,climate regulation and hydrological regulation services were identified as the most important ecological functions in the Northeast Forest Belt,contributing greatly to regional ecological stability and human well-being.The ESV in the Northeast Forest Belt is improved during the study period,but the stability of the ecosystem is still chal-lenged by the dual impacts of natural and socio-economic factors.To further optimize regional land use planning and ecological protection policies,it is recommended to prior-itize the conservation of high-ESV areas,enhance ecological restoration efforts for wetlands and forests,and reasonably control the spatial layout of urban expansion and agricul-tural development.Additionally,this study highlights the importance of tailored ecological compensation policies and strategic land-use planning to balance environmental protec-tion and economic growth.

文摘Tomato(Solanum lycopersicum)is an important fruit and vegetable crop in worldwide.The fertility of tomato reproductive organs can be dramatically decreased when ambient temperatures rise above 35°C,reducing tomato fruit yield.It is necessary to identify transcription factors(TFs)and target genes involved in heat stress response(HSR)signaling cascades in tomato flower buds to improve tomato plant thermotolerance.In this study,we profiled genes expressed in three developmental stages of tomato flower buds.Red and turquoise modules for heat stress(HS)were identified through gene co-expression network analysis,and the genes within these modules were enriched in HS-related pathways.By focusing on the TFs in the two modules,we identified several novel HSR-related TFs,including SlWRKY75,SlMYB117,and SlNAM.Furthermore,homology analysis illustrated a conserved signaling cascade in tomato.Lastly,we identified and experimentally validated four HSF-regulated genes,namely SlGrpE,SlERDJ3A,SlTIL,and SlPOM1,that likely modulate thermotolerance in plants.These results provide a high-resolution atlas of gene expression during tomato flower bud development under HS conditions,which is a valuable resource for uncovering potential regulatory networks associated with the HSR in tomato.

文摘The transcriptional cascade and regulatory loop play crucial roles in regulating plant-specialized metabolite biosynthesis.Capsaicinoids are unique to the genus Capsicum and confer a pungent flavor to its fruits.However,the transcriptional regulation of capsaicinoid biosynthesis remains largely unknown.In this study,two AP2/ERF transcription factors(TFs),CaERF102 and CaERF111,were characterized for their role in the capsaicinoid biosynthesis process.Expression analysis of two ERFs and capsaicinoid biosynthetic genes(CBGs)suggested that they were associated with capsaicinoid biosynthesis.Both ERFs encode nuclear-localized proteins and function as transcriptional activators through their C-terminal activation motifs.The two ERF TFs participated in capsaicinoid biosynthesis by directly activating the promoters of key CBGs,and this activation was significantly enhanced when CaMYC2 was co-expressed.Moreover,CaERF102 and CaERF111 were found to interact with CaMYC2.This study helps elucidate the AP2/ERF TF regulatory network that governs capsaicinoid biosynthesis in Capsicum species.

文摘This study focuses on the spatiotemporal distribution,urban-rural variations,and driving factors of ammonia Vertical Column Densities(VCDs)in China’s Yangtze River Delta region(YRD)from 2008 to 2020.Utilizing data from the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interfer-ometer(IASI),Generalized Additive Models(GAM),and the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model,we observed a significant increase of NH_(3)VCDs in the YRD between 2014 and 2020.The spatial distribution analysis revealed higher NH_(3)concentrations in the northern part of the YRD region,primarily due to lower precipitation,alkaline soil,and intensive agricul-tural activities.NH_(3)VCDs in the YRD region increased significantly(65.18%)from 2008 to 2020.The highest growth rate occurs in the summer,with an annual average growth rate of 7.2%during the period from 2014 to 2020.Agricultural emissions dominated NH_(3)VCDs during spring and summer,with high concentrations primarily located in the agricultural areas adjacent to densely populated urban zones.Regions within several large urban areas have been discovered to exhibit relatively stable variations in NH_(3)VCDs.The rise in NH_(3)VCDs within the YRD region was primarily driven by the reduction of acidic gases like SO_(2),as emphasized by GAM modeling and sensitivity tests using the GEOS-Chem model.The concentration changes of acidic gases contribute to over 80%of the interannual variations in NH_(3)VCDs.This emphasizes the crucial role of environmental policies targeting the reduction of these acidic gases.Effective emission control is urgent tomitigate environmental hazards and secondary particulate matter,especially in the northern YRD.

文摘Solid-state electrolytes(SSEs),as the core component within the next generation of key energy storage technologies-solid-state lithium batteries(SSLBs)-are significantly leading the development of future energy storage systems.Among the numerous types of SSEs,inorganic oxide garnet-structured superionic conductors Li7La3Zr2O12(LLZO)crystallized with the cubic Iaˉ3d space group have received considerable attention owing to their highly advantageous intrinsic properties encompassing reasonable lithium-ion conductivity,wide electrochemical voltage window,high shear modulus,and excellent chemical stability with electrodes.However,no SSEs possess all the properties necessary for SSLBs,thus both the ionic conductivity at room temperature and stability in ambient air regarding cubic garnet-based electrolytes are still subject to further improvement.Hence,this review comprehensively covers the nine key structural factors affecting the ion conductivity of garnet-based electrolytes comprising Li concentration,Li vacancy concentration,Li carrier concentration and mobility,Li occupancy at available sites,lattice constant,triangle bottleneck size,oxygen vacancy defects,and Li-O bonding interactions.Furthermore,the general illustration of structures and fundamental features being crucial to chemical stability is examined,including Li concentration,Li-site occupation behavior,and Li-O bonding interactions.Insights into the composition-structure-property relations among cubic garnet-based oxide ionic conductors from the perspective of their crystal structures,revealing the potential compatibility conflicts between ionic transportation and chemical stability resulting from Li-O bonding interactions.We believe that this review will lay the foundation for future reasonable structural design of oxide-based or even other types of superionic conductors,thus assisting in promoting the rapid development of alternative green and sustainable technologies.
