In the present study, we analyzed qualitative survey data from 538 school psychologists across schools in the United States regarding their perceptions of school safety issues and potential strategies to address school safety. There are only a few studies exploring the experiences and perspectives of school psychologists that have been based on large-scale qualitative data. Using inductive coding, three themes for safety concerns emerged: (a) aggressive behaviors from students, (b) mental and behavioral needs, and (c) limited staffing.

Background: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), an advanced manifestation of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is characterized by hepatocyte injury, inflammation, and fibrosis. Saturated fatty acids (SFAs) have emerged as key contributors to hepatocyte lipotoxicity and disease progression. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) acts as a sentinel for diverse ligands, including lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and endogenous molecules like palmitic acid (PA)-induced ceramide (CER) accumulation, promoting hepatocyte demise.

Prior research demonstrates positive associations between muscularity dissatisfaction and an array of negative health outcomes, including muscularity-oriented disordered eating, eating-related psychosocial impairment, and psychological distress. However, muscularity dissatisfaction differs by gender and is not always linked to these outcomes, indicating the existence of moderators of these associations. We proposed and examined muscularity bias internalization (MBI) as a moderator of these associations.

Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) have been employed as host materials of aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs), however, they suffer from low capacity and poor cycling stability due to limited electron transfer and the presence of interstitial water in PBAs. Herein, a vacancy and water-free silver hexacyanoferrate KAgFe(CN) (AgHCF-3) was synthesized by adjusting the ratio of K and Ag in the framework. It offers nearly four electrons involving two sequential redox reactions, namely, Fe/Fe and Ag/Ag, to deliver a large capacity of 179.

Since 2010, the Chinese economy has transitioned from a high-speed growth model to a high-quality development model. During this period, the logistics industry has witnessed rapid growth, leading to significant carbon emissions and posing severe threats to the ecological environment. To investigate the spatiotemporal variations in carbon emissions in China's logistics industry, we conducted a correlation analysis using Moran's index and a bivariate spatial autocorrelation model from 2010 to 2021.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the relationship between body image flexibility and body dissatisfaction among Chinese adolescents over 18 months, addressing gaps in existing research focused primarily on Western contexts.
  • It reveals that for boys, higher body image flexibility at the start is linked to less dissatisfaction with body fat later, while for girls, dissatisfaction with body fat and muscularity initially impacts body image flexibility in the future.
  • Overall, the findings highlight the complex, bi-directional relationship between body image flexibility and dissatisfaction in both genders, with no significant differences found between boys and girls.

Screening for eating disorders (EDs) is an essential part of the prevention and intervention of EDs. Traditional screening methods mostly rely on predefined cutoff scores which have limitations of generalizability and may produce biased results when the cutoff scores are used in populations where the instruments or cutoff scores have not been validated. Compared to the traditional cutoff score approach, the diagnostic classification modeling (DCM) approach can provide psychometric and classification information simultaneously and has been used for diagnosing mental disorders.

The rapid development of society and economy has resulted in a substantial increase in energy consumption, consequently exacerbating pollution issues. Current research predominantly focuses on energy-saving and emission reduction in road transportation within individual cities or the three major economic regions of China:the Yangtze River Delta, the Pearl River Delta, and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region. However, there is a dearth of studies addressing the southeastern coastal economic region.

Glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) catalyzes the first step in triacylglycerol synthesis. Understanding its substrate recognition mechanism may help to design drugs to regulate the production of glycerol lipids in cells. In this work, we investigate how the native substrate, glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P), and palmitoyl-coenzyme A (CoA) bind to the human GPAT isoform GPAT4 via molecular dynamics simulations (MD).

The leaping forward of the economy has promoted the rapid growth of road traffic demand, resulting in the carbon emissions of road traffic increasing significantly. It is well known that a one-size-fits-all emission reduction policy is not feasible. Therefore, conducting an investigation on the carbon emissions of all provincial-level regions within a country can assist the government in formulating carbon emission policies at a macro level tailored to different regions.

The pathophysiology of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) is causally linked to postsynaptic scaffolding proteins, as evidenced by numerous large-scale genomic studies [1, 2] and in vitro and in vivo neurobiological studies of mutations in animal models [3, 4]. However, due to the distinct phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity observed in ASD patients, individual mutation genes account for only a small proportion (<2%) of cases [1, 5]. Recently, a human genetic study revealed a correlation between de novo variants in FERM domain-containing-5 (FRMD5) and neurodevelopmental abnormalities [6].

Rationale: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with metabolic dysfunction, including progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Chronic intermittent hypoxia (IH) as a model of OSA worsens hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in rodents with diet induced obesity. However, IH also causes weight loss, thus complicating attempts to co-model OSA and NAFLD.

The Muscularity Bias Internalization Scale (MBIS) captures an individual's endorsement of stereotypical beliefs about muscularity and engagement in self-stigmatizing evaluations about their muscularity. The MBIS has been validated in Chinese men and Lebanese men and women, showing strong internal consistency reliability and construct validity. Because muscularity-related body image concerns are present in Chinese women, there is a need for research to validate the MBIS in Chinese women.
