Background: Constipation, a widespread global issue, prompted an investigation into the intricate relationship between dietary factors and this condition. This study delves into the association between carbohydrate-to-fiber (CF) ratio and constipation, employing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) and a comprehensive meta-analysis.
Methods: Utilizing NHANES data (2005-2010) from 7752 adults, constipation was defined based on stool type (Bristol Stool Form Scale types 1 or 2).

Background: The mean corpuscular volume (MCV) is a common parameter in routine blood tests. Larger MCV tends to be more fragile and pose challenges in passing through capillaries, leading to a diminished capacity for oxygen and nutrient supply to the brain thus impacting cognitive function. Limited studies have explored the association between MCV and cognitive impairment with inconsistent results.

Automated large-scale farmland preparation operations face significant challenges related to path planning efficiency and uniformity in resource allocation. To improve agricultural production efficiency and reduce operational costs, an enhanced method for planning land preparation paths is proposed. In the initial stage, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are employed to collect data from the field, which is then used to construct accurate farm models.
