Factors associated with psychological insulin resistance among patients with type 2 diabetes in China.

Objective: The aim of this study was to understand the psychological insulin resistance status among Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes and investigate its associated factors in these patients.

Methods: A multi-stage stratified random sampling was performed to randomly select patients with type 2 diabetes from the eastern, central, and western regions in Shandong Province, China, and 660 valid questionnaires were collected. Psychological insulin resistance was assessed by the scale of My Opinion on Insulin (MOI).

Characterization of Myxovirus resistance (Mx) gene from Chinese seabass Lateolabrax maculatus: Insights into the evolution and function of Mx genes.

Chinese seabass (Lateolabrax maculatus) stands out as one of the most sought-after and economically significant species in aquaculture within China. Diseases of L. maculatus occur frequently due to the degradation of the germplasm, the aggravation of environmental pollution of water, and the reproduction of pathogenic microorganisms, inflicting considerable economic losses on the Chinese seabass industry.

Pathogenicity and Genomic Characteristics Analysis of Serotype A Isolated from Argali Hybrid Sheep.

Respiratory diseases arising from co-infections involving () and (Mo) pose a substantial threat to the sheep industry. This study focuses on the isolation and identification of the strain extracted from the lung tissue of an argali hybrid sheep infected with Mo. Kunming mice were used as a model to assess the pathogenicity of .

A novel C-type lectin protein (BjCTL5) interacts with apoptosis stimulating proteins of p53 (ASPP) to activate NF-κB signaling pathway in primitive chordate.

C-type lectin proteins (CTLs), a group of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), play pivotal roles in immune responses. However, the signal transduction and regulation of CTLs in cephalochordates have yet to be explored. In this study, we examined the composition of CTLs in Branchiostoma japonicum, identifying a total of 272 CTLs.

The urban-rural disparities and factors associated with the utilization of public health services among diabetes patients in China.

Background: Basic public health services for diabetes play an essential role in controlling glycemia in patients with diabetes. This study was conducted to understand the urban-rural disparities in the utilization of basic public health services for people with diabetes and the factors influencing them.

Methods: The data were obtained from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) with 2976 diabetes patients.

The design of tourism product CAD three-dimensional modeling system using VR technology.

In view of the high homogeneity of tourism products all over the country, an attempt is made to design virtual visit tourism products with cultural experience background, which can reflect the characteristics of culture + tourism in different scenic spots, so that tourists can deeply experience the local culture. Combined with computer aided design (CAD), the virtual three-dimensional (3D) modeling system of scenic spots is designed, and VR real scene visit interactive tourism products suitable for different scenic spots are designed. 360° VR panoramic display technology is used for 360° VR panoramic video shooting and visiting system display production of Elephant Trunk Hill park scenery.

, a Target of slmiR482e-3p, Provides Resistance against the Fungal Pathogen in Tomato.

The vast majority of plant disease resistance () genes encode nucleotide binding site-leucine-rich repeat (NBS-LRR) proteins, which specifically determine the plant immune response and have been demonstrated to be targets of several microRNA (miRNA) families. The fungus f. sp.
