Article Abstract

Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a novel tick-borne viral disease with high mortality. Since January 2010, we have conducted an epidemiological surveillance and etiological study of SFTS in Jiangsu and Anhui provinces. From January 2010 through December 2015, a total of 286 SFTS cases were confirmed in Jiangsu and Anhui provinces with a case fatality rate of 16.1%. The majority of confirmed SFTS cases were distributed in the border area of Jiangsu and Anhui provinces. Our findings suggest that the SFTS prevalence rate rose since 2010 and reached its highest in 2015. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that the majority of the SFTSV strains (83.6%) from Jiangsu and Anhui provinces belonged to genotypes A and D. Notably, we identified three strains of SFTSV clustered into the genotype E. This is the first report of the genotype E SFTSV strains in mainland of China. A reassortment between genotype A and D was found in the central region of the endemic areas, where three SFTSV genotypes (A, C and D) were co-circulating.

Interfacial Zn─O─Ti Sites for Efficient Photocatalytic Urea Synthesis from CO and N.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

September 2025

Key Laboratory of Functional Molecular Solids, Ministry of Education, College of Chemistry and Materials Science, Anhui Normal University, Wuhu, 241002, P.R. China.

Urea photosynthesis from CO and N has profound environmental and energy implications. However, the simultaneous activation of CO and N, along with the promotion of C─N bond formation, remains a major challenge. Herein, the asymmetric interfacial sites (Zn─O─Ti) were engineered by building oxygen atom bridges between ZIF-8 and MIL-125 to enable efficient photocatalytic urea synthesis.

Cognitive disorders, a rapidly growing public health concern, can be prevented by a healthy diet. Several studies have shown that protein intake is a key modulator of cognitive function. The development of precision nutrition has allowed the study of specific amino acids within proteins, with many studies reporting that the level of methionine (Met) intake plays a central role in modulating cognitive function.

Background: Guselkumab is effective in treating moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis; however, data from randomized controlled trials in the Chinese population are limited. This study evaluated and verified the efficacy and safety profile of guselkumab in Chinese patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.

Methods: This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 4 study.

Although floral morphology in ornamental chrysanthemums has been widely investigated, its genetic basis in medicinal varieties such as Chrysanthemum morifolium cv. 'Hangju' remains largely unexplored, despite its direct relevance to both capitulum development and medicinal quality. To address this gap, we performed transcriptome profiling of ray and disc florets from wild-type and mutant plants, which led to the identification of two MYB-related transcription factor genes, CmDIV-like and CmRAD1, as differentially expressed and potentially associated with altered floral symmetry.
