Heterogeneous associations between community social capital and loneliness: a cross-sectional study in 2019.

Background: Loneliness is prevalent among older adults and is linked to physical and mental health problems. Community social capital has been suggested to mitigate its impact, but its heterogeneity across socioeconomic groups was not exploredMethod:We analysed cross-sectional data from the 2019 Japan Gerontological Evaluation Study (JAGES) with 24,206 participants aged 65 years or older. Loneliness was measured using UCLA's 3-item scale, and community social capital was assessed by civic participation, social cohesion, and reciprocity.

HPC-DMN integration at neural event boundary affects across-boundary BOLD representations and memory recollection.

Humans naturally divide their continuous experiences into discrete events, with event boundaries playing a critical role in this segmentation process. These boundaries are marked by significant shifts in brain activity, particularly in the hippocampal complex (HPC) and default mode network (DMN), which are key to learning and memory formation. We hypothesized that neural event boundaries in specific HPC-DMN regions contribute to episode recollection through across-boundary BOLD pattern shifts and neural event network formation, which may be influenced by two factors: network integration and boundary alignment.

This review summarizes the synthesis methods of CCOFs and their applications in chiral recognition. It discusses the advantages and limitations of three synthesis strategies, including chiral post-modification, direct synthesis, and chiral-induced synthesis.

High quantum yield AIE covalent organic frameworks for sensitive pH monitoring, and copper toxicosis Diagnosis&Remission.

The luminescence properties of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have attracted significant attention for biomedical applications. However, conventional fluorescent COFs often suffer from weak fluorescence due to aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ), limiting their utility. Given the critical need for highly efficient and sensitive biosensing tools, herein, we propose an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) COF, named COF-Bpy, with the quantum yield up to 25%.

Pattern Separation and Pattern Completion Within the Hippocampal Circuit During Naturalistic Stimuli.

Pattern separation and pattern completion in the hippocampus play a critical role in episodic learning and memory. However, there is limited empirical evidence supporting the role of the hippocampal circuit in these processes during complex continuous experiences. In this study, we analyzed high-resolution fMRI data from the "Forrest Gump" open-access dataset (16 participants) using a sliding-window temporal autocorrelation approach to investigate whether the canonical hippocampal circuit (DG-CA3-CA1-SUB) shows evidence consistent with the occurrence of pattern separation or pattern completion during a naturalistic audio movie task.

Construction of 2-azidacetic acid functionalized high-crystallinity fluorescent covalent organic framework: Applications in mitoxantrone and Fe sensing and adsorption.

Due to the dual functions of fluorescence detection and adsorption, fluorescent covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have attracted significant attention. However, common fluorescent COFs often exhibit unsatisfactory fluorescence properties and selectivity, coupled with poor solution dispersibility, which limit their effectiveness in detection and adsorption applications. In response, a novel post-modified fluorescent COF (named AZC-COF) was synthesized by connecting a fluorescent COF (COF-TB) with 2-azidacetic acid through a copper-catalyzed aide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction.

In this work, we report the synthesis of a new fluorescent HOF by assembling melem and isophthalic acid (IPA), designated as HOF-IPA.

Multi-scale brain attributes contribute to the distribution of diffuse glioma subtypes.

Gliomas are primary brain tumors and are among the most malignant types. Adult-type diffuse gliomas can be classified based on their histological and molecular signatures as IDH-wildtype glioblastoma, IDH-mutant astrocytoma, and IDH-mutant and 1p/19q-codeleted oligodendroglioma. Recent studies have shown that each subtype of glioma has its own specific distribution pattern.

Magnetic molecular imprinted covalent organic framework composite for the magnetic solid-phase extraction of bisphenol AF.

A magnetic molecular imprinted covalent organic framework composite (MCOF-MIP) that possessed the 'dual-selectivity' of a covalent organic framework and molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) with rapid response performance was successfully prepared for the removal of bisphenol AF (BPAF) from real water and blood samples.

Predictable navigation through spontaneous brain states with cognitive-map-like representations.

Just as navigating a physical environment, navigating through the landscapes of spontaneous brain states may also require an internal cognitive map. Contemporary computation theories propose modeling a cognitive map from a reinforcement learning perspective and argue that the map would be predictive in nature, representing each state as its upcoming states. Here, we used resting-state fMRI to test the hypothesis that the spaces of spontaneously reoccurring brain states are cognitive map-like, and may exhibit future-oriented predictivity.

Construction of a multifunctional dual-network chitosan composite aerogel with enhanced tunability.

Typically, the tailorable versatility of biomass aerogels is attributed to the tunable internal molecular structure, providing broad application prospects. Herein, a simple and novel preparation strategy for developing multifunctional dual-network chitosan/itaconic acid (CSI) aerogel with tunability by using freeze-drying and vacuum heat treatment techniques. By regulating the temperature and duration of amidation reaction, electrostatic interactions between chitosan (CS) and itaconic acid (IA) was abstemiously converted into amide bond in frozen aerogel, with IA acting as an efficient in-situ cross-linking agent, which yielded CSI aerogels with different electrostatic/covalent cross-linking ratios.

Fluorescent covalent organic frameworks for environmental pollutant detection sensors and enrichment sorbents: a mini-review.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a class of porous crystalline materials based on organic building blocks containing light elements, such as C, H, O, N, and B, interconnected by covalent bonds. Because of their regular crystal structure, high porosity, stable mechanical structure, satisfactory specific surface area, easy functionalization, and high tunability, they have important applications in several fields.
