Article Synopsis
  • A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to explore the causal relationships between genetically determined sedentary behaviors and various health outcomes, looking at data from 31 MR studies.
  • The analysis identified 47 significant causal associations, with increased leisure TV watching linked to higher risks of heart diseases and type 2 diabetes, while leisure computer use showed protective effects against certain health conditions like arthritis and Alzheimer's.
  • The study concludes that different sedentary behaviors have unique effects on health, emphasizing the need for targeted interventions that not only reduce sedentary time but also encourage healthier sedentary activities.

: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has emerged as a leading cause of several chronic diseases, imposing a significant global economic burden. The Mediterranean diet (MD) and low-fat diet (LFD) are the two primary recommended dietary patterns that exhibit distinct positive effects on treating NAFLD. : To investigate which of the two diets, MD and LFD, is more effective in the treatment of NAFLD.

Unlabelled: Twenty-four-hour movement behaviors have significant implications for physical and mental health throughout one's lifespan. Consistent with movement behaviors, several countries have formulated and published 24-h movement guidelines. This review summarized the studies related to 24-h movement guidelines among children and adolescents from six databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, and SPORTDiscus).

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is usually associated with obesity. However, it is crucial to recognize that NAFLD can also occur in lean individuals, which is frequently overlooked. Without an approved pharmacological therapy for lean NAFLD, we aimed to investigate whether the Ganjianglingzhu (GJLZ) decoction, a representative traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), protects against lean NAFLD and explore the potential mechanism underlying these protective effects.

Pre-obesity, as a significant risk factor for the progression of metabolic syndrome (MS), has become a prevalent public health threat globally. In this three-year longitudinal study of pre-obese women at baseline, the goal was to clarify the female-specific bidirectional relationship between the risk of MS and blood alanine aminotransferase. In this manuscript, the MS score was determined using the following equation: MS score = 2*waist/height + fasting glucose/5.

The self-assembly of organic TCNQF˙⁻ radicals (2-fluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyano-p-quinodimethane) and the anisotropic [Tb(valpn)Cu](3+) dinuclear cations produced a single-chain magnet (SCM) involving stacking interactions of TCNQF˙⁻ radicals (H2valpn is the Schiff base from the condensation of o-vanillin with 1,3-diaminopropane). Static and dynamic magnetic characterizations reveal that the effective energy barrier for the reversal of the magnetization in this hetero-tri-spin SCM is significantly larger than the barrier of the isolated single-molecule magnet based on the {TbCu} dinuclear core.

A series of isostructural octanuclear lanthanide complexes of general formula [Ln8(sao)4(μ3-OH)4(NO3)12(DMF)12] (Ln = Nd (), Sm (), Eu (), Gd (), Tb (), Dy (), Ho (), Er (); DMF = dimethylformamide) have been prepared via reactions of salicylaldoxime (saoH2), tetramethylammonium hydroxide (Me4NOH) with the appropriate lanthanide nitrate salt (Ln(NO3)3·6H2O). The metallic skeletons of the complexes describe [Ln4] tetrahedra encapsulated inside a [Ln4] square with the inner core stabilised through μ3-OH(-) ions and the periphery by μ4-sao(2-) ligands. The magnetic properties of compounds were investigated by dc and ac magnetometry.

Reactions of the main-group cation Tl(I) with anions of 2,5-derivatives of TCNQ (TCNQ = 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane) have led to the isolation of a family of unprecedented semiconducting main-group-metal-organic frameworks, namely, [Tl(TCNQX(2))], (X = H, Cl, Br, I). A comparison of single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction data revealed the existence of a third polymorph of the previously reported material Tl(TCNQ)] and two distinct polymorphs of [Tl(TCNQCl(2))], whereas only one phase was identified for [Tl(TCNQBr(2))] and [Tl(TCNQI(2))]. These new results are described in the context of the structures of other known binary metal-TCNQ frameworks that display a variety of coordination environments for the central cation, namely, four-, six-, and eight-coordinate, and different arrangements of the adjacent TCNQ radicals-parallel versus perpendicular-in the stacked columns.

The π-π stacking interactions between tptz units from adjacent Sm(tptz)(HCOO)(3) coordination nanotubes leads to additional 1D channels (tptz = 2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-s-triazine). The present compound is a rare case of a tubular porous material with both hydrophobic and hydrophilic channels. Permanent porosity was confirmed by N(2) adsorption isotherms.

Reactions between trivalent rare earth ions (M(III) = La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er and Yb) and the radical anion of 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQF(4)) produce a family of mononuclear complexes {M[(TCNQF(4))](2)[H(2)O](x)}.(TCNQF(4))(3H(2)O), x = 6, 7. The cationic complex {M(III)([TCNQF(4)](-) )(2)[H(2)O](x)}(+) cocrystallizes with one [TCNQF(4)](-) radical anion and three water molecules.

A series of isostructural compounds with formula [M(TCNQF(4))(2)(H(2)O)(6)]TCNQF(4)3 H(2)O (M=Tb (1), Y (2), Y:Tb (74:26) (3), and Y:Tb (97:3) (4); TCNQF(4)= tetrafluorotetracyanoquinodimethane) were prepared and their magnetic properties investigated. Compounds 1, 3, and 4 show the beginning of a frequency-dependent out-of-phase ac signal, and decreasing intensity of the signal with decreased concentration of Tb(III) ions in the diluted samples is observed. No out-of-phase signal was observed for 2, an indication that the behavior of 1, 3, and 4 is indicative of slow paramagnetic relaxation of Tb(III) ions in the samples.

Four ion-pair complexes of [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) with [NO(2)bzql](+) have been obtained, which belong to two kinds of polymorph forms, [NO(2)bzql][Ni(dmit)(2)] (1alpha and 1beta) and [NO(2)bzql][Ni(dmit)(2)].CH(3)COCH(3) (2alpha and 2beta) (where dmit = 2-thioxo-1,3-dithiole-4,5-dithiolate and [NO(2)bzql](+) = 1-(4-nitrobenzyl)quinolinium). Though 1alpha, 2alpha, and 2beta all show anionic dimerization structures at room temperature, they have different anionic and cationic arrangement fashions, which give rise to different magnetic behaviors for these polymorphs or pseudo-polymorphs.

The preparation, single crystal X-ray crystallography, and magnetic properties are reported for four new clusters based on [M'V(CN)8]3- octacyanometallates (M'=Mo, W). Reactions of [M'V(CN)8]3- with mononuclear NiII ions in the presence of the tmphen blocking ligand (tmphen=3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) in a 2:3:6 ratio, respectively, lead to the formation of the trigonal bipyramidal clusters [NiII(tmphen)2]3[M'V(CN)8]2. Analogous reactions with the same starting materials performed in a 2:3:2 ratio, respectively, produce pentadecanuclear clusters of the type {NiII[NiII(tmphen)(MeOH)]6[Ni(H2O)3]2[micro-CN]30[WV(CN)3]6}.

In this article we report for the first time experimental details concerning the synthesis and full characterization (including the single-crystal X-ray structure) of the spin-canted zigzag-chain compound [Co(H2L)(H2O)]infinity [L = 4-Me-C6H4-CH2N(CPO3H2)2], which contains antiferromagnetically coupled, highly magnetically anisotropic Co(II) ions with unquenched orbital angular momenta, and we also propose a new model to explain the single-chain magnet behavior of this compound. The model takes into account (1) the tetragonal crystal field and the spin-orbit interaction acting on each Co(II) ion, (2) the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg exchange between neighboring Co(II) ions, and (3) the tilting of the tetragonal axes of the neighboring Co units in the zigzag structure. We show that the tilting of the anisotropy axes gives rise to spin canting and consequently to a nonvanishing magnetization for the compound.

Removal of methanol molecules from the interstices of a metal-organic framework based on a 2-D hexagonal Mn(II)-TCNQF(4) net results in stronger magnetic interactions and leads to a glassy magnetically ordered state; the magnetic behavior can be reversibly cycled upon solvation-desolvation of the material.
