Traditional villages, an important rural cultural heritage, have gradually developed tourism value and become attractive tourism resources with the support of increasingly convenient transportation infrastructure, and there is inevitably a correlation between the spatial pattern distribution and tourism attractiveness as well as transportation accessibility. Therefore, the study adopts ArcGIS, a modified gravity model combined with the research method of transportation accessibility, to investigate the interaction mechanism and influence relationship between 724 traditional villages in 88 districts and counties of Guizhou Province as the research object. The results found that: (1) Traditional villages in Guizhou Province are mainly clustered in Qiandongnan, with an overall clustering distribution. (2) Guizhou has formed an attraction structure centered on the central Guizhou economic circle. The number of traditional villages represents the richness of their cultural tourism resources, which affects the tourism economic links between regions. (3) Traditional villages are mainly centered on Qiandongnan, forming six isochronous circles. The regional superposition effect generated by transportation accessibility will accelerate the formation of the core advantages of tourist destinations. (4) The degree of agglomeration of traditional villages will affect the advantages and disadvantages of rural cultural tourism resource endowment. Transportation and tourism are mutually beneficial and coexistent, and when the roads are clear and not blocked, the industry will prosper, and when the scenery is beautiful, the people will be rich. The study provides ideas for deepening the integration of road and tourism in traditional villages, and is also activating the tourism value of traditional villages and promoting the layout of reverse and niche tourism products in rural areas.

This study investigates the spatial and temporal distribution and the influencing factors of 579 cultural heritage sites along the Qin-Shu Ancient Road in Shaanxi Province, employing kernel density estimation, buffer analysis, and geographic detectors. Three key findings emerge: (1) The spatial pattern is characterized by a "line-belt-core" structure, with a belt-like aggregation along the Xi'an-Baoji-Hanzhong axis. Core concentrations are found in Xi'an (181 sites), Hanzhong (159 sites), and Ankang (122 sites), with secondary concentrations in Baoji (72 sites) and Shangluo (36 sites).

Objectives: The relationship between abdominal obesity and cognitive impairment is not fully understood. The lipid accumulation product (LAP) is a convenient and cost-effective indicator for abdominal obesity. In the present study, we investigated the association between the LAP and cognitive impairment in a community-based 4-year prospective cohort study.

Background: In large tertiary hospitals across China, outpatient patients often encounter the "three longs and one short" (long registration time, long waiting time, long time for medicine collection, and short time for medical treatment) phenomenon. This scenario contributes to suboptimal patient experiences and declining satisfaction with health care services. To address the issue of long waiting times, many hospitals in China have implemented a range of measures.

Background: Traditional plant-based remedies remain essential to public health, especially in regions where formal healthcare access is limited. This study documents ethnomedicinal practices in Tehsil Hasilpur, Punjab, Pakistan, highlighting how growing and diverse populations utilize local flora for therapeutic purposes.
Methods: A total of 421 informants (247 males, 174 females) across 39 villages contributed to the documentation of 39 medicinal plant species from 19 botanical families.

Background: Despite having heritability estimates of 80%, ~ 50% cases of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) remain without a genetic diagnosis. Structural variants (SVs) detected using long-read whole genome sequencing (lrWGS) are a relatively new class of variants implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders. Short read sequencing (SRS) and chromosomal microarray (CMA) are unable to resolve these SVs due to their inherent technological limitations.
