attenuates the intestinal permeability, oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress: transcriptome and microbiome analyses in weaned piglets.

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is related to oxidative stress (OS) and leads to intestinal injury. SC06 (SC06) can regulate OS, but its roles in intestinal ER stress remains unclear. Using a 2 × 2 factorial design, 32 weaned piglets were treated by two SC06 levels (0 or 1 × 10 CFU/g), either with or without diquat (DQ) injection.

Chlorogenic acid ameliorates intestinal inflammation by inhibiting NF-κB and endoplasmic reticulum stress in lipopolysaccharide-challenged broilers.

Intestinal inflammation is a primary contributor to poor growth performance during poultry production. Chlorogenic acid (CGA) is a natural phenolic acid that exhibits superior anti-inflammatory activity and improved intestinal health. To investigate the protective effects and molecular mechanisms of CGA during intestinal inflammation in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-challenged broilers, we randomly divided 288 one-day-old male Cobb broilers into 4 groups: a control group fed a basal diet (CON group), a basal diet + LPS group (LPS group), and 2 basal diet groups fed 500 or 750 mg/kg CGA + LPS (CGA or CGA groups).

Quantitative Phosphoproteomics Analysis Reveals the Protective Mechanism of Chlorogenic Acid on Immunologically Stressed Broiler Meat Quality.

Modern poultry production is stressful for the birds, and this stress is recognized as a major cause of inferior meat quality. Chlorogenic acid (CGA), a plant phenolic acid, has excellent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The antioxidant capacity and phosphoproteomics of immunologically stressed broiler breast muscle were assessed to elucidate the mechanism of the beneficial effects of CGA on meat quality.

Perceived social support mediates the effect of COVID-19 pandemic on job adaptation disorders of workers: An exploratory cross-sectional study.

COVID-19 lockdown can lead to job adaptation disorders, which are heterogeneous among individuals. The purpose of this study was to explore the association between perceived social support and job adaptation disorders among workers in China during the COVID-19 pandemic. The questionnaires of Psychological Questionnaire for Public Health Emergencies, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, Work Attitude Scale were used for this cross-section study via an online survey.

The mediating effect of psychological flexibility on fatigue and depressive symptoms among nursing staff.

Objectives: To explore the relationship between depressive symptoms, fatigue and psychological flexibility, as well as their interactions on depression in Chinese nurses.

Material And Methods: Using convenience sampling, a cross-sectional survey of 796 nurses in municipal hospitals of Zhengzhou, Henan Province, China, was conducted. The questionnaires of Work-related Acceptance and Action Questionnaire, Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale and Fatigue Assessment Instrument were used.

Psychological Capital and Self-Acceptance Modified the Association of Depressive Tendency with Self-Rated Health of College Students in China during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Background: To explore the association between the self-reported health status, depressive tendency, psychological capital, and self-acceptance of college students in China during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: Using the online survey platform "questionnaire star", a two-phase cross-sectional study was conducted on a total number of 1438 undergraduates with informed consents. The questionnaires of Self-Rated Health Measurement Scale (SRHMS), the Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D), Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ-24), and self-acceptance questionnaire were administered to each participant.

Associations of Psychological Capital, Coping Style and Emotional Intelligence with Self-Rated Health Status of College Students in China During COVID-19 Pandemic.

Background: COVID-19 lockdown can lead to mental health problem, and the problem is heterogeneous across individuals. In this study, we aimed to explore the association between the self-reported health status, emotional coping style, emotional intelligence and positive psychological state of college students during the COVID-19 pandemic in China.

Methods: The questionnaires of Self-rated Health Measurement Scale (SRHMS), Emotional Intelligence Scale (EIS), Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ), Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) were used for online survey.

Wafer-Level Filling of MEMS Vapor Cells Based on Chemical Reaction and Evaporation.

Micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) vapor cells are key components for sensors such as chip-scale atomic clocks (CSACs) and magnetometers (CSAMs). Many approaches have been proposed to fabricate MEMS vapor cells. In this article, we propose a new method to fabricate wafer-level filling of MEMS vapor cells based on chemical reaction and evaporation.

Coordination regulated pyrolysis synthesis of ultrafine FeNi/(FeNi)S nanoclusters/nitrogen, sulfur-codoped graphitic carbon nanosheets as efficient bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts.

Design of advanced carbon nanomaterials with high-efficiency oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activities is still imperative yet challenging for searching green and renewable energies. Herein, we synthesized ultrafine FeNi/(FeNi)S nanoclusters encapsulated in nitrogen, sulfur-codoped graphitic carbon nanosheets (FeNi/(FeNi)S/N,S-CNS) by coordination regulated pyrolyzing the mixture of the metal precursors, dithizone and g-CN at 800 °C. The as-prepared FeNi/(FeNi)S/N,S-CNS exhibited distinct electrocatalytic activity and stability for the ORR with positive onset (E) and half-wave (E) potentials (E = 0.

CoFe alloy embedded in N-doped carbon nanotubes derived from triamterene as a highly efficient and durable electrocatalyst beyond commercial Pt/C for oxygen reduction.

For development of green and sustainable energy, it is of importance to search highly efficient and low-cost electrocatalysts of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in energy conversion devices. Herein, CoFe alloyed nanocrystals embedded in N-doped bamboo-like carbon nanotubes (CoFe@NCNTs) were facilely synthetized by one-step co-pyrolysis with the mixture of triamterene, metal chlorides and graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN). The resultant CoFe@NCNTs exhibited excellent ORR activity with the positive shifts in the onset potential (E = 0.
