Realizing the soft infrastructure mixing of Shanghai's catering industry based on land expansion and population growth.

This study takes Shanghai's restaurants as a case study of urban soft infrastructure, employing big data sets from third-party website platforms for multi-source data fusion, to deeply analyze the impact of urban land expansion and population dynamics on the availability, affordability, acceptability, and accessibility of restaurants. The case study reveals that, despite the Shanghai municipal authorities' focus on mitigating overcrowding in the central urban areas, soft infrastructure such as restaurants in new urban districts remains at a relative disadvantage. The decentralization of soft infrastructure to peripheral urban areas has not met policy expectations, presenting a spatial imbalance characterized by greater provision in the main urban areas than in new urban districts, and higher in Puxi than in Pudong.

Oxidation with potassium ferrate for the one-pot preparation of carboxylated cellulose II nanocrystals.

Cellulose II nanocrystals (CNC II) possess a higher thermal stability and improved emulsifying capability than cellulose I nanocrystals (CNC I) owing to the higher density of their hydrogen bonds and more larger surface areas. Therefore, CNC II exhibit substantial advantages for value-added nanocomposite materials. Current CNC II preparation methods are mainly based on a two-pot reaction involving acid hydrolysis and crystal transformation.

Prostein expression on circulating tumor cells as a prognostic marker in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Background: Identification of emerging molecular biomarkers on circulating tumor cells (CTCs) represents an attractive feature of liquid biopsy that facilitates precision and tailored medicine in the management of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Prostein is an androgen-regulated transmembrane protein with high prostate specificity. Prostein-positive circulating tumor cell (CTC) was recently suggested to have diagnostic potential; however, no study has been conducted to evaluate its prognostic value in mCRPC.

The microneme adhesive repeat domain of MIC3 protein determined the site specificity of , and .

Understanding the determinants of host and tissue tropisms among parasites of veterinary and medical importance has long posed a substantial challenge. Among the seven species of known to parasitize the chicken intestine, a wide variation in tissue tropisms has been observed. Prior research suggested that microneme protein (MIC) composed of microneme adhesive repeat (MAR) domain responsible for initial host cell recognition and attachment likely dictated the tissue tropism of parasites.

Differential effects of grazing intensity on carbon sequestration in arid versus humid grasslands across China.

Livestock grazing, as a primary utilization practice for grasslands, plays a crucial role in carbon cycling process and its budget. Whether the impacts of different grazing intensities on carbon sequestration vary with precipitation over a broad geographic scales across China's grasslands remains unclear. In the context of striving for carbon neutrality, we carried out a meta-analysis based on 156 peer-reviewed journal articles to synthesize the general impacts of different grazing intensities on carbon sequestration with different precipitations.

Multi-scenario simulation of land use and land cover based on shared socioeconomic pathways: The case of coastal special economic zones in China.

Urban land-use change simulations without considering the sustainable planning policies, especially in special economic park highly concerned by planners, might lack the reliability and availability. Thus, this study proposes a novel planning support systems integrating the Cellular Automata Markov chain model and Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (CA-Markov-SSPs) for predicting the changing of land use and land cover (LULC) at the local and system level by using a novel machine learning-driven, multi-source spatial data modelling framework. Using multi-source satellite data of coastal special economic zones from 2000 to 2020 as a sample, calibration validation based on the kappa indicates a highest average reliability above 0.
