One important concern is the effect of social isolation on the mental health of undergraduates, such as academic anxiety, smartphone addiction and other social psychological problems. The purpose of this study was to investigate associations among undergraduates' social isolation in this special context, social media use for obtaining information about the COVID-19 pandemic (i.

The More Internet Access, the More Mental Symptoms Students Got, the More Problematic Internet Use They Suffered: a Meta-analysis of Mainland Chinese Adolescents and Young Adults.

The traditional view is that mental symptoms and problematic Internet use are positively related. Still, other researchers have questioned this view, and they believe that mental symptoms are negatively associated with problematic Internet use. Since then, this controversy has continued yet.

Characterization of the effect of cis-3-hexen-1-ol on green tea aroma.

cis-3-Hexen-1-ol has been regarded as the main source of green aroma (or green odor) in green tea. However, no clear findings on the composition of green aroma components in tea and the effect of cis-3-hexen-1-ol on other aroma components have been reported. In this study, the main green aroma components in green tea were characterized, especially the role of cis-3-hexen-1-ol in green aroma was analyzed and how it affected other aroma components in green tea was studied.

Chemotactic migration of newly excysted juvenile Clonorchis sinensis is suppressed by neuro-antagonists.

The metacercariae of the Clonorchis sinensis liver fluke excyst in the duodenum of mammalian hosts, and the newly excysted juveniles (CsNEJs) migrate along the bile duct via bile chemotaxis. Cholic acid is a major component of bile that induces this migration. We investigated the neuronal control of chemotactic behavior of CsNEJs toward cholic acid.

Birth Cohort Effects, Regions Differences, and Gender Differences in Chinese College Students' Aggression: A Review and Synthesis.

This cross-temporal meta-analysis involved 86 studies (N = 71,397) on aggression among Chinese college students conducted from 2003 to 2017. We collected articles investigating college students' aggression using the Aggression Questionnaire. The results showed that college students' aggression generally decreased steadily over 15 years.

The relationship between coping style and Internet addiction among mainland Chinese students: A meta-analysis.

The matter of whether different coping styles are correlated with increased Internet addiction or not remains a topic of debate. Most researchers have argued that Internet addiction is linked to low positive coping and high negative coping; however, others have rejected this opinion. Consequently, this meta-analysis examined the link between coping style and Internet addiction to address this controversy.

Bile acids drive chemotaxis of Clonorchis sinensis juveniles to the bile duct.

Clonorchiasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by Chinese liver fluke, Clonorchis sinensis infection. C. sinensis is a biological carcinogen causing cholangiocarcinoma in humans.

C3H/He Mice as an Incompatible Cholangiocarcinoma Model by Clonorchis sinensis, Dicyclanil and N-Nitrosodimethylamine.

Clonorchis sinensis is a Group-I bio-carcinogen, associated with cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). The hamster is the only experimental model of C. sinensis-mediated CCA, but we oblige another animal model.

In vitro maintenance of Clonorchis sinensis adult worms.

Clonorchis sinensis is a biological carcinogen inducing human cholangiocarcinoma, and clonorchiasis is one of the important endemic infectious diseases in East Asia. The present study investigated survival longevity of C. sinensis adult worms in various in vitro conditions to find the best way of keeping the worms longer.

Strain variation in the susceptibility and immune response to Clonorchis sinensis infection in mice.

Mice have shown various susceptibility to infection by Clonorchis sinensis. To compare the intra-specific variation in the host-parasite relationship of C. sinensis, 6 strains of mice (ICR, BALB/c, C57BL/6, DDY, CBA/N, and C3H/HeN) with 3 different haplotypes were evaluated on their susceptibility.

Influencing factors for cure of clonorchiasis by praziquantel therapy: infection burden and CYP3A5 gene polymorphism.

Chemotherapy of clonorchiasis with praziquantel (PZQ) is effective but about 15% of treated cases have been reported uncured. The present study investigated correlation of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the cytochrome P450 gene, CYP3A5 and cure of clonorchiasis. A total of 346 egg passing residents were subjected and treated by 3 doses of 25 mg/kg PZQ.

Multiple recombinant antigens of Clonorchis sinensis for serodiagnosis of human clonorchiasis.

Antigenic proteins from Clonorchis sinensis have been previously purified and evaluated for their antigenicity to enable the serodiagnosis of clonorchiasis. Though they were of high specificity, molecularly defined proteins were reported to be less sensitive as single antigens than crude antigen. To resolve this issue, 11 clones were selected by immunoscreening an adult C.

The beta-tubulin coding sequences were investigated for the Chinese liver fluke, Clonorchis sinensis. A cDNA library of adult C. sinensis was screened with cDNA probes synthesized by polymerase chain reaction using degenerate primers, and two beta-tubulin cDNAs, CsTB1 and CsTB3, were subsequently cloned.

Reference genes for quantitative analysis on Clonorchis sinensis gene expression by real-time PCR.

The accuracies of relative gene expressions as determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction are largely dependent on the variabilities of the reference genes used. Validation of the stabilities of reference genes under experimental conditions is an essential initial step for comparative studies on the expression levels of target genes in experimental groups. Using three total RNA samples extracted independently from Clonorchis sinensis metacercariae and adults, we determined the gene expression stabilities of eight reference gene candidates and the relative transcript levels of three target genes using the geNorm program.
