Background: The lack of physical activity poses a major challenge to adolescents' healthy physical and mental development. Despite growing attention, research on how the school physical activity climate affects Chinese adolescents' participation in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) remains scarce. This study explores this relationship through the lens of ecological systems theory, focusing on the mediating roles of physical education satisfaction and perceived barriers.

This cross-sectional survey uses convenience and snowball sampling to explore the relationship between adolescents' HRQOL and their participation in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA).
Methods: This study subjects include 440 adolescents aged 12 to 18, from four youth training centers and three schools in the central regions of Hunan, Hubei, and Henan provinces, chosen as representative samples for this study.
Converting CO to methanol is crucial for addressing fuel scarcity and mitigating the greenhouse effect. Cu-based catalysts, with their diverse surface states, offer the potential to control reaction pathways and generate reactive H* species. However, a major challenge lies in oxidizing active Cu species by water generated during the catalytic process.

Advancing and deploying Fenton-inactive Cd that combines excellent catalytic activity, selectivity, and stability remains a serious challenge, predominantly owing to the difficulty in regulating the intrinsic electronic states and local geometric structures of such fully occupied ds configuration. In this work, a combination of experiments and theoretical calculations reveals that the incorporation of boron (B) enables the tuning of the average oxidation state of Cd to Cd, facilitating electron localization and implementing a different electrocatalytic preference compared to conventional d-electron configurations. The resulting Cd(B) catalyst demonstrates high selectivity (>90% on average) in the O-to-HO conversion, negligible activity loss over 100 h, and a superior HO production rate (15.

Methods: This is a retrospective multi-center study of CNV analysis in 457 fetuses with ultrasound-detected CAKUT and normal karyotypes. Cohorts from published studies were included for further pooled analyses (N = 2746).
Severe viral pneumonia can induce rapid expansion of KRT5+ basal-like cells in small airways and alveoli; this forms a scar-like structure that persists in the injured alveoli and impedes normal alveolar epithelium regeneration. In this study, we investigated the mechanism by which viral infection induced this remodeling response. Through comparing different lung-injury models, we demonstrated that infection induced strong IFN-γ signal-stimulated dysplastic KRT5+ cell formation.

Soccer players face the challenge of overcoming physical fatigue and psychological pressure when taking penalty kicks. Instances of low confidence and competitive state anxiety during matches exacerbate the detrimental impact on attention control, particularly in non-target defined features, leading to suboptimal performance during penalty kicks.

It is recognized increasingly for its pivotal role in both cancer development and the response to cancer treatments. We assessed associations between 370,027 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within 467 ferroptosis-related genes and survival of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.
