Monocyte/macrophage (Mo/Mϕ) infiltration is critical in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). However, the complex composition of the myocardium severely hinders drug accumulation and makes it challenging to modulate the Mo/Mϕ immune response at the MIRI site. The spleen, acting as a Mo/Mϕ reservoir, plays a crucial role in the development of MIRI along the cardiosplenic axis.

Fine particulate matter (PM) produced during cooking commonly mix into adjacent rooms and elevates indoor PM concentrations. The risk of human exposure to cooking-generated PM is mainly related to the exposure duration and particulate matter (PM) concentration.

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that accounts for one-quarter of the world's radiative forcing. Methane emissions from the natural gas sector are prevalent throughout the natural gas (NG) chain. Studies have shown that methane emissions from post-meter uses of natural gas are vastly understated.

Seven regularly used edible oils were studied in a variety of tests to attain this objective. First, total particle number emission rates ranging from 10 nm to 1 μm were measured, followed by an examination within six size intervals from 0.

To develop effective mitigation strategies, it is critical to know the amount of the emitted particles. The purpose of this research is to estimate the temperature-dependent particle mass emission rates of edible oils and to develop models for source strength based on the multiple linear regression method.

Objective: Serum β2-microglobulin (β2-MG) and serum cystatin C (CysC) are sensitive and reliable indicators of early renal impairment. Triglyceride glucose index (TyG) is an emerging vital indicator of insulin resistance and is associated with increased risk of hypertension. We aimed to analyze the relationship between TyG and early renal impairment in hypertensive patients.

Methods: A total of 428 inpatients with primary hypertension from March 2018 to March 2021 in Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Grouped by sex and serum uric acid.
Recent years, people pay great attention to fine particle matter (PM) in indoor environment due to its negative impacts on health. Household cooking and severe air pollutant aggravate indoor PM level, especially during heating season in severe cold region of China. To find the variation of actual household PM influenced by both cooking activities and penetration from outdoor environment, a field measurement of PM concentrations in living room of residential buildings was conducted in Harbin, China.

This paper reviews the published literature on indoor thermal environment and air quality in Chinese-style residential kitchens (CRKs). The paper first discusses typical characteristics of CRKs, including kitchen layout, cooking methods, and ventilation systems used. Next, the paper describes the current state of the indoor thermal environment and air quality in CRKs.
