Few consistent and comparable assessments of BTC disease burden have been conducted at national or subnational levels, and little is known about the demographic, temporal, and geographic patterns of epidemiological characteristics and disease burden of BTC in China. The incidence, mortality, disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), years of life lost (YLLs) due to premature death and years lived with disability (YLDs) of BTC were comprehensively examined by age, sex, and calendar year in the Chinese population, using the methodological framework and analytical strategies used for the 2021 Global Burden of Disease study. All-age incidence increased from 17,077 to 51,720 between 1990 and 2021, and the age-standardized incidence rate rose by 13.62%; all-age deaths increased from 17,251 to 37,833, but the age-standardized mortality rate fell by nearly one-fifth. The DALYs rose by 89.57% while the age-standardized DALY rate fell by 23.24%. Variations of the tendencies in BTC burden were found between sexes and age groups. Data for each provincial region indicate that coastal eastern provincial regions have higher incidence and YLD levels, whereas northern provincial regions have higher mortality, DALY, and YLL levels. The proportions of DALYs attributable to high body mass index (BMI) illustrate the growing attribution obesity has made, and high BMI usually puts more burden on northern provincial regions. These results provide evidence to support precise, targeted, and customed public health strategies aimed at enhancing biliary tract health among the Chinese population.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":421,"journal":{"name":"Science Bulletin","volume":"69 22","pages":"Pages 3547-3557"},"PeriodicalIF":18.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142374881","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}

Due to the limited regenerative capability and the existence of the blood–brain barrier, the brain was previously thought to be separated from the rest of the body. Currently, various cross-talks between the central nervous system and peripheral organs have been widely described, including the brain-gut axis, the brain-liver axis, the brain-skeletal muscle axis, and the brain-bone axis. Moreover, several lines of evidence indicate that leveraging systemic biology intervention approaches, including but not limited to lifestyle interventions, exercise, diet, blood administration, and peripheral immune responses, have demonstrated a significant influence on the progress and prognosis of brain diseases. The advancement of innovative proteomic and transcriptomic technologies has enriched our understanding of the nuanced interplay between peripheral organs and brain diseases. An array of novel or previously underappreciated blood-derived factors have been identified to play pivotal roles in mediating these communications. In this review, we provide a comprehensive summary of blood-to-brain communication following brain diseases. Special attention is given to the instrumental role of blood-derived signals, positing them as significant contributors to the complex process of brain diseases. The insights presented here aim to bridge the current knowledge gaps and inspire novel therapeutic strategies for brain diseases.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":421,"journal":{"name":"Science Bulletin","volume":"69 22","pages":"Pages 3618-3632"},"PeriodicalIF":18.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142363761","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}

Furthermore, 3D evaporators could have multifaceted functionalities originating from various functional evaporation surfaces and 3D structures. This review summarizes recent advances in 3D evaporators, focusing on rational design, fabrication and energy nexus of 3D evaporators, and the derivative functions for improving solar evaporation performance and exploring novel applications. Future research prospects are also proposed based on the in-depth understanding of the fundamental aspects of 3D evaporators and the requirements for practical applications.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":421,"journal":{"name":"Science Bulletin","volume":"69 22","pages":"Pages 3590-3617"},"PeriodicalIF":18.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142363768","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}
