Association Between Resting Heart Rate and the Risk of Incident Hypertension Among Older Chinese Adults: A Prospective Cohort Study.

Examining the role of resting heart rate (RHR) in hypertension risk could improve our understanding of its pathogenesis. However, most relevant studies have been conducted in developed countries such as the United States and Brazil, with no evidence for the older Chinese population. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association between RHR and the risk of developing hypertension in an older Chinese population.

[Distributions of dimethylsulfide and dimethylsulfoniopropionate and influencing factors in the East China Sea and the Southern Yellow Sea during the winter].

The concentrations of dimethylsulfide (DMS) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) were measured in situ in the East China Sea and the Southern Yellow Sea during December 2011 and January 2012 to study their horizontal distributions and influencing factors. Besides, the size distribution of DMSPp and the sea-to-air flux of DMS were also investigated. The concentrations of DMS, dissolved DMSP (DMSPd) and particulate DMSP (DMSPp) ranged from 0.
