Article Abstract
Background: The association between socioeconomic status and periodontitis is intricate. This research examines how social determinants of health relate to periodontitis in U.S. adults, an area that has not been thoroughly studied.
Methods: This study utilized data from the 2009-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). During each survey cycle, data on self-reported Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) were collected, encompassing employment, family income, food security, education, healthcare access, health insurance, housing instability, and marital status (married or cohabiting). Periodontitis was classified based on Eke's 2012 criteria. The relationship between SDoH and periodontitis was examined using multivariable logistic regression models.
Results: This study involved 10,714 participants (mean age 52.01 ± 14.30 years), with 49.37% male and 50.63% female. The average SDoH score was 2.64 ± 2.00, and the prevalence of periodontitis was 46.60%. The fully adjusted logistic regression model revealed a positive association between SDoH and periodontitis (OR = 1.28; 95% CI, 1.24-1.32, P < 0.001).
Conclusions: Adverse social determinants of health are associated with an increased risk of periodontitis among US adults.

Background: Competence and control beliefs are core self-evaluations with increasing value as predictors (e.g., in clinical, organizational, environmental, and educational psychology), and they are assumed to have a universal core that is shared across cultures.

Tiredness may be associated with increased or decreased sexual experience and behavior while fatigue seems to have a predominantly negative effect, although evidence is scarce. This ecological momentary assessment study is the first to examine associations between tiredness or fatigue and concurrent / subsequent sexual desire or sexual arousal and previous / subsequent sexual activity in daily life, including event-based measurements and considering gender differences. Healthy heterosexual individuals (n = 63), aged between 19 and 32 years and in a relationship, indicated their tiredness, general fatigue, physical fatigue, sexual desire, and sexual arousal on an iPod seven times daily over 14 days, and any event-based occurrences of sexual activity.

It has been noticed that when the waiting time distribution exhibits a transition from an intermediate time power-law decay to a long-time exponential decay in the continuous time random walk model, a transition from anomalous diffusion to normal diffusion can be observed at the population level. However, the mechanism behind the transition of waiting time distribution is rarely studied. In this paper, we provide one possible mechanism to explain the origin of such a transition.

Illicit drug abuse poses a significant global threat to public health and social security, highlighting the urgent need for rapid, sensitive, and versatile detection technologies. To address the limitations of traditional chromatographic techniques-such as high costs and slow response times-and the drawbacks of conventional immunochromatographic sensors (ICS), including low sensitivity and non-intuitive signal outputs, a fluorescence-quenching ICS (FQICS) was developed. This sensor leverages fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between aggregation-induced emission fluorescent microspheres (AIEFMs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs).

Humans frequently make decisions that impact close others. Prior research has shown that people have stable preferences regarding such decisions and maintain rich, nuanced mental representations of their close social partners. Yet, if and how such mental representations shape social decisions preferences remains to be seen.
