Introduction: This study was conducted to identify the self-reported communicable diseases (CDs) rate and associated factors among ethnic minority populations in Vietnam.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of 6912 ethnic minority participants from 12 provinces located in four socioeconomic regions in Vietnam. A total of 4985 participants were included in the final analysis. We used a structured questionnaire to collect information on self-reported CDs and socio-demographic information.

Results: The results showed that the prevalence of self-reported CDs was 5.7% (95% CI: 5.0-6.4%). Ethnicity was shown to have an independently significant correlation to self-reported CDs. The Cham Ninh Thuan, Tay, Dao and Gie Trieng ethnic populations had significantly higher odds of self-reported CDs than those of La Hu ethnicity (OR = 47.1, 6.3, 5.6, and 6.5, respectively). Older people and males had significantly higher odds of having CDs than younger and females.

Conclusion: Our findings recommend conducting ethnic-specific interventions to diminish the incidence of CDs.

The accurate detection of carbamate pesticides popularly employed in agricultural products is critical for reducing the threat of resultant residues to human health. In this work, a regenerable nanofilm used for SERS substrate was constructed by interfacially confined self-assembly incorporating CdS nanowires (CdSNWs) and Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs). The constructed AgNPs-CdSNWs/Nanofilm could significantly enhance the Raman signals of three carbamate pesticides (metolcarb, carbaryl and aldicarb-sulfone).

Array-based analysis allows for precise disease diagnosis by simultaneously detecting multiple biomarkers. However, most array sensing platforms rely on non-covalent interactions between sensors and analytes, which limits their sensitivity. This study enhances the sensitivity of array analysis for thiol biomarkers by incorporating polyion complex micelles into the sensor array design.

Background: The current synthetic strategies for carbon dots (CDs) are usually time-consuming, rely on complicated processes, and need high temperatures and energy. Recent studies have successfully synthesized CDs at room temperature. Unfortunately, most CDs synthesized at room temperature are obtained under harsh reaction conditions, prepared using aromatic precursors, or need a long time to generate.

Electronic address:

As a novel fluorescent carbon nanomaterial, carbon dots are restricted by their poor fluorescence in the solid state, although they exhibit favorable photoluminescence in solution. N-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) and solid-state fluorescence films were prepared using green and renewable cellulose-derived materials, respectively. The hydrogen bonding network of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) inhibits the self-aggregation behavior of N-CDs, which leads to solid-state fluorescence.
