Green innovation facilitates high-quality economic development and ecological environmental protection. Herein, the minimum distance to strong efficient frontier (MinDS) model was used to measure green innovation efficiencies (GIEs) of 30 Chinese provinces over a period of 21 years (2000-2020). Gini coefficient decomposition and kernel density estimation methods were used to analyze the regional differences of GIE. Spatial correlation was estimated to analyze spatial-spillover effects and spatial convergence of the GIE. China's GIE has shown an increasing trend with significant spatial differences in GIE among provinces. Regional differences and transvariation intensity are the primary sources of spatial differences in GIE. Regional differences in GIE have decreased, except for eastern regions. The results of spatial convergence estimation suggest spatial absolute and conditional convergence in all regions. Therefore, for the GIE improvement in China, the effects of economic level, industrial structure, and environmental regulations must be considered.

Efficacy and Safety of Sulforaphane Added to Antipsychotics for the Treatment of Negative Symptoms of Schizophrenia: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

J Clin Psychiatry

There are few established treatments for negative symptoms in schizophrenia, which persist in many patients after positive symptoms are reduced. Oxidative stress, inflammation, and epigenetic modifications involving histone deacetylase (HDAC) have been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Sulforaphane has antioxidant properties and is an HDAC inhibitor.

Introduction: LDL-cholesterol greater than 190 mg/dL indicates severe hypercholesterolemia (HS) of monogenic and/or polygenic origin. Genetic risk scores (GRS) evaluate potential polygenic causes.

Objective: we applied a GRS of 6-SNP (GRS-6) in HS individuals.

Background: Both dietary magnesium and serum magnesium are associated with the prognosis of diabetic patients. However, the impact of the magnesium depletion score (MDS), which assesses systemic magnesium deficiency, on the prognosis of diabetic patients remains unclear. This cohort study aims to explore the potential association between the MDS and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in diabetic patients.
