Background: Parent-child separation is one of the adverse childhood experiences, becoming more common due to economic migration worldwide today. However, there is a lack of understanding of the association between this separation during the critical first three years of life and the development of mental health issues in early childhood. This study aimed to determine the association of parent-child separation in the first three years and its specific patterns with mental health problems that emerged at preschool age.

However, the mineral evolution of ferrihydrite and the coupled mobilization behavior of co-existent As(V) and Cd(II) remain unclear. In this study, we have investigated As(V)-Cd(II)-bearing ferrihydrite conversion behavior induced by environmentally relevant concentrations of S(-II) (1 and 5 mM).

However, the stability and transformation behavior of ACR in sulfidic conditions remains unclear. Herein, we have investigated the stability and speciation evolution of arsenic (As), sulfur (S), and trace metals during the exposure of ACR to diverse S(-II) concentrations under anoxic conditions at pH of 6 and 11.

By adopting a network approach to the global energy trade and based on the data of global energy trade during 1996-2018, the evolution characteristics of the global energy trade network are hereby investigated, and the impact of climate risk on the global energy trade is explored. The results demonstrate that the global energy trade network has scale-free characteristics and significant regional characteristics and that its heterogeneity is weakening on the whole.

Objective: To observe the effects of Pollen Typhae total flavone (PTF) on glucose and lipid metabolism in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
Methods: The content of glucose which disappeared from the culture medium after incubation with drugs for 24 hours was determined as glucose consumption of the cells. The activity of cells was detected by XTT method.
