Gravel cycling is a relatively new cycling discipline, with the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) hosting their first World Championships in 2022. Gravel races combine features of road racing, cyclocross, and mountain biking, including terrain of varying technical difficulty, long distances, substantial elevation gain, obstacles, and limited opportunities to stop for in-race nutrition. This study assessed hydration responses to gravel races of three different distances.

High-Arctic environments are facing an elevated pace of warming and increasing human activities, making them more susceptible to the introduction and spread of alien species. We investigated the role of human disturbance in facilitating the spread of a native plant () in a high-Arctic natural environment close to Isfjord Radio station and along adjacent hiking trails at Kapp Linné, Svalbard. We reconstructed the spatial pattern of the arrival and spread of at Kapp Linné by combining historical records of the species occurrence (1928-2018) with a contemporary survey of the plant abundance along the main hiking trail (2023 survey) and tested the relative effects of altitude and proximity to hiking trails on the species density via a generalised linear model (GLM).

The utilization of natural waste gravel soil as base course material contributes to environmental protection and carbon emission reduction. The purpose of this research is to establish a new model for automated gradation design of the composite soil stabilizer-stabilized waste gravel soil (CSSWGS). A gradation range of CSSWGS has been proposed.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a common malignant cancer with high mortality rate. Activating transcription factor 2 (ATF2) and pleckstrin homology domain containing O1 (PLEKHO1) were reported to participate in numerous cancers. However, their roles and the detailed mechanisms in ccRCC development remain largely unknown.

Soil salinization is a serious threat to the ecological environment and sustainable agricultural development in the arid regions of northwest China. Optimal soil salinization amelioration methods were eagerly explored under different soil salinity levels. Sesbania and hairy vetch are salt-tolerant plants, and green manure improved the saline environment.
