The estimation of brain age may be influenced not only by the imaging modality but also by multidomain clinical factors. However, the degree to which various clinical factors in individuals are associated with brain structure, as well as the comprehensive relationship between these factors and brain aging, is not yet clear. <b>Methods:</b> In this study, multimodal brain magnetic resonance imaging data and longitudinal clinical information were collected from 964 participants in a population-based cohort with 16 years of follow-up in northern China. We developed a machine learning-based algorithm to predict multimodal brain age and compared the estimated brain age gap (BAG) differences among the 5 groups characterized by varying exposures to these high-risk clinical factors. We then estimated modality-specific brain age in the hypertension group based on hypertension-related regional imaging metrics. <b>Results:</b> The results revealed a significantly larger BAG estimated from multimodal neuroimaging in subjects with 4 or 5 risk factors compared to other groups, suggesting an acceleration of brain aging under cumulative exposure to multiple risk factors. The estimated T1-based BAG exhibited a significantly higher level in the hypertensive subjects compared to the normotensive individuals. <b>Conclusion:</b> Our study provides valuable insights into a range of health factors across lifestyle, metabolism, and social context that are reflective of brain aging and also contributes to the advancement of interventions and public health initiatives targeted at the general population aimed at promoting brain health.</p>","PeriodicalId":21120,"journal":{"name":"Research","volume":"7 ","pages":"0500"},"PeriodicalIF":11.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11491671/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142473588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we propose and design an intelligent transmissive microwave metasurface with optical sensing and transparency, which provides both microwave and optical channels without redundant optical devices and power suppliers, and the 2 transmission channels are associated with each other. The metasurface is realized by validly integrating photosensitive materials into microwave meta-structures. As a demonstration, we fabricate an ultrathin optically transparent transmissive metasurface based on polyethylene terephthalate substrate and photoresistors, whose thickness is only 0.125 mm. We further construct cross-wavelength transmission links based on the metasurface sample and experimentally validate that the microwave transmissions vary with light intensities under full-polarization and large-angle incidences, and this metasurface possesses high optical transparency.

The integrated GA endows the hydrogel microparticles with antibacterial properties, while the encapsulated exosomes impart them with pro-angiogenesis ability. In addition, as the black phosphorus is incorporated into these hybrid hydrogel microparticles, the release profile of GA and exosomes could be controllable under near-infrared irradiation due to the excellent photothermal effect of black phosphorus and the reversible phase transformation properties of GA. Based on these features, we have demonstrated that these microparticles can effectively kill bacteria, scavenge free radical, and promote angiogenesis from in vitro experiments. Besides, they could also markedly accelerate the wound healing process by down-regulating inflammation and promoting collagen deposition and angiogenesis in bacteria-infected in vivo diabetic wound.
