Mediating roles of activities of daily living and depression on the relationship between sleep quality and health-related quality of life.

This study aimed to explore the mediating effects of ADL and depression on the relationship between sleep quality and HRQOL among older people in rural China, while also exploring the moderating impact of loneliness. The study gathered data from a household survey conducted among 1587 Chinese rural older adults (mean age = 73.63 years).

spv locus aggravates Salmonella infection of zebrafish adult by inducing Th1/Th2 shift to Th2 polarization.

Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium (S. typhimurium) are facultative intracellular enteric pathogens causing disease with a broad range of hosts. It was known that Th1-type cytokines such as IFN-γ, IL-12, and TNF-α etc.

Salmonella spv locus suppresses host innate immune responses to bacterial infection.

Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium (S. typhimurium) is globally distributed and causes massive morbidity and mortality in humans and animals. S.

Efficient self-organizing multilayer neural network for nonlinear system modeling.

It has been shown extensively that the dynamic behaviors of a neural system are strongly influenced by the network architecture and learning process. To establish an artificial neural network (ANN) with self-organizing architecture and suitable learning algorithm for nonlinear system modeling, an automatic axon-neural network (AANN) is investigated in the following respects. First, the network architecture is constructed automatically to change both the number of hidden neurons and topologies of the neural network during the training process.
