UnknownLongitudinal association between myopia and parental myopia and outdoor time among students in Wenzhou: a 2.5-year longitudinal cohort study.

Background

To evaluate the impact of parental myopia and outdoor time on myopia among students in Wenzhou.

Methods

We examined 1388 primary students from first grade to third grade in Wenzhou from September 2012 to March 2015. We performed noncycloplegic refractometry on each student ...

UnknownOxatub[4]arene: a smart macrocyclic receptor with multiple interconvertible cavities.
There are a large number of synthetic macrocyclic receptors in the literature. No particular one is suitable for all guests or purposes. For a broader guest binding scope or multiple purposes, a macrocycle with multiple interconvertible cavities will be advantageous. Here, we report a naphthalene-ba...

UnknownLean body mass positively associate with blood pressure in Chinese adults: the roles of ages and body fat distribution.

Background

The relationship between lean body mass (LBM) and blood pressure (BP) is controversial and limited. This study investigated the associations between LBM indexes and BP in adults of different ages and with varying body fat distribution.

Methods

The data for the present analy...

UnknownModulating the catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles using amine-terminated ligands.
Nanozymes have broad applications in theranostics and point-of-care tests. To enhance the catalytic activity of nanozymes, the conventional strategy is doping metals to form highly active nanoalloys. However, high-quality and stable nanoalloys are hard to synthesize. Ligand modification is a powerfu...
