Associations of multiple risk factors with prenatal depression and anxiety: Evidence from the Tianjin Birth Cohort (TJBC) study.

Background: Antenatal mental disorders are associated with maternal and fetal adverse events. Previous studies have been focused on the postpartum period, rather than pregnancy, yet the association of risk factors with prenatal depression and anxiety through pregnancy has been rarely reported. This study aimed to identify the risk factors of prenatal depression and anxiety, and access their potential roles in developing mental disorders during pregnancy.

Longitudinal integrative cell-free DNA analysis in gestational diabetes mellitus.

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) presents varied manifestations throughout pregnancy and poses a complex clinical challenge. High-depth cell-free DNA (cfDNA) sequencing analysis holds promise in advancing our understanding of GDM pathogenesis and prediction. In 299 women with GDM and 299 matched healthy pregnant women, distinct cfDNA fragment characteristics associated with GDM are identified throughout pregnancy.

Prescribed-time command filtered control for a class uncertain nonlinear systems.

This article delves into the intricate challenge of implementing prescribed-time command filtered control in the context of uncertain nonlinear systems. Firstly, a prescribed-time function is defined to lay the groundwork for subsequent controller design. Subsequently, a novel prescribed-time command Filtered controller is proposed for high-order nonlinear systems featuring unknown parameters.

Cohort profile of an early life observational cohort in China: Bone and MicroBiOme onset (BAMBOO) study.

Purpose: The Bone And MicroBiOme Onset (BAMBOO) study is an ongoing prospective observational cohort study conducted in Tianjin, China, aiming to determine age-appropriate trajectories for microbiome maturation and bone development and to identify the influence of dietary factors in the process.

Participants: The recruitment started in September 2021 and was completed in February 2023. A total of 1380 subjects were recruited, 690 at birth (group 1) and 690 at 6 months of age (group 2).

A high-resolution haplotype-resolved Reference panel constructed from the China Kadoorie Biobank Study.

Precision medicine depends on high-accuracy individual-level genotype data. However, the whole-genome sequencing (WGS) is still not suitable for gigantic studies due to budget constraints. It is particularly important to construct highly accurate haplotype reference panel for genotype imputation.

Essential oil of Schisandra chinensis ameliorates cognitive decline in mice by alleviating inflammation.

In this study, we aim to assess possible impacts of essential oil (SEO) from Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill. (S.

Protective Effects of Puerarin against Aβ 1-42-Induced Learning and Memory Impairments in Mice.

Puerarin is a major isoflavone glycoside from the root of It has been reported that puerarin can protect neurons from oxidative stress-induced apoptosis. Emerging evidence suggests that oxidative damage is associated with A-induced neuronal death. In the current study, we evaluated the effect of puerarin on Alzheimer's disease induced by A and explored the potential mechanisms underlying this effect.

Adsorption of surfactants on a Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain and the effect on cell surface lypohydrophilic property.

The adsorption behavior of five surfactants, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), Triton X-100, Tween 80, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and rhamnolipid, on a Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain and the effect of temperature and ionic strength (IS) on the adsorption were studied. The change of cell surface lypohydrophilic property caused by surfactant adsorption was also investigated. The results showed that the adsorption kinetics of the surfactants on the cell followed the second-order law.
