Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have gained widespread usage and achieved remarkable success in various real-world applications. Nevertheless, recent studies reveal the vulnerability of GNNs to graph adversarial attacks that fool them by modifying graph structure. This vulnerability undermines the robustness of GNNs and poses significant security and privacy risks across various applications.

Computer technology, including artificial intelligence (AI), has been explored to promote the CPG implementation. This study has reviewed the main domains where computer technology and AI has been applied to CPG implementation.

The present study aims to explore the short-term effects of six routinely monitored air pollutants on the broad causes of hospital admissions and estimate the resulting hospital admission burdens.
Methods: Daily hospital admission records from 2017 to 2019 were obtained from the Wuhan Information center of Health and Family Planning.

PM, a type of particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of less than 2.5 μm, is associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), while greenness seems to be associated with better cardiovascular health. We identified 499,336 CVD cases in Wuhan's 74 municipal hospitals between 2017 and 2019.

We linked daily hospital admission records from Wuhan's 74 municipal hospitals from 2017 to 2019 with modeled annual average NO concentrations and added data on the residential surrounding green spaces with 250 m and 500 m buffers based on the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) using a land use regression model (LUR). The conditional logistic regression model was used to estimate the acute effect of short-term NO exposure, and stratification analyses were applied to explore the modification effect of long-term NO exposure and green spaces by estimating the odds ratios in the single- and dual-environmental factor groups.

The development of drugs and therapies for ALD is hampered by a lack of suitable animal models that replicate both the histological and metabolic features of human ALD.
