Anomalous behavior of a nonlinear climate-vegetation model governed by the multiplicative and additive noises is revealed on the basis of stochastic sensitivity analysis. A specific feature of this model is the bistability with the coexistence of "snowball" equilibrium and "warm" attractor in the form of equilibrium or cycle. It is found that multiplicative and additive noises shift probabilistic distribution in opposite directions. The multiplicative noise introduced into the death rate of vegetation changes the dispersion of random states and their localization in the phase diagram. This type of noise cools down the system and is responsible for its transition to the snowball state. On the contrary, the additive noise warms up the climate with increasing noise intensity. A cumulative effect of multiplicative and additive noises occurs under their simultaneous influence. This effect determining the evolutionary behavior of a climate-vegetation system depends on the ratio of intensities of these noises.

Background: Although the association of short-term ozone and heatwave exposure with cerebrovascular disease has been well documented, it remains largely unknown whether their co-exposure could synergistically trigger ischemic stroke (IS) mortality.
Methods: We performed an individual-level, time-stratified case-crossover analysis utilizing province-wide IS deaths (n =59079) in warm seasons (May-September) during 2016-2019, across Jiangsu, eastern China. Heatwave was defined according to a combination of multiple temperature thresholds (90-97.

Background: Fast and accurate classification of steel can effectively improve industrial production efficiency. In recent years, the use of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) in conjunction with other techniques for material classification has been developing. Plasma Acoustic Emission Signal (PAES) is a type of modal information separate from spectra that is detected using LIBS, and it can reflect some of the sample's physicochemical information.

Although loneliness and social isolation are proposed as important risk factors for metabolic diseases, their associations with the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) have not been elucidated. The aims of this study were to determine whether loneliness and social isolation are independently associated with the risk of NAFLD and to explore potential mediators for the observed associations. In this large prospective cohort analysis with 405,073 participants of the UK Biobank, the status of loneliness and social isolation was assessed through self-administrated questionnaires at study recruitment.

Limited studies have been conducted on the interaction of smoking and abdominal obesity on the risk of pre-diabetes mellitus (PDM) among rural adults in southwest China. The data was obtained from a cross-sectional survey conducted using a two stage random sampling method around Rongchang district in ChongQing municipality southwest of China in 2022. A total of 3,017 participants aged 40 to 79 years old were included in the study.

Objective: Elevated red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is associated with increased risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the potential interactions of RDW with genetic risk of incident RA remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the associations between RDW, genetics, and the risk of developing RA.
Methods: We analysed data from 145,025 healthy participants at baseline in the UK Biobank.
