Role of Rho-associated kinases and their inhibitor fasudil in neurodegenerative diseases.

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) are prevalent in the elderly. The pathogenesis of NDDs is complex, and currently, there is no cure available. With the increase in aging population, over 20 million people are affected by common NDDs alone (Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease).

Efficacy of Baduanjin for obesity and overweight: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), there is a significant public health issue regarding the increasing number of individuals affected by obesity and overweight on an annual basis. Therefore, it is imperative to urgently identify interventions that can effectively control and improve this condition. Baduanjin, as a medium-intensity exercise, appears a suitable approach for weight reduction among individuals with obesity.

Core-Shell Composite MIL-101(Cr)@TiO for Organic Dye Pollutants and Vehicle Exhaust.

MIL-101(Cr)@TiO core-shell composite material was synthesized via the hydrothermal method, where MIL-101(Cr) served as the core and TiO acted as the shell. SEM results revealed that the metal-organic framework core effectively prevented the aggregation of TiO nanoparticles and facilitated their dispersion. Characterization techniques such as XRD, XPS, and TGA were utilized to confirm the successful loading of TiO onto MIL-101(Cr) and its excellent thermal stability.
