    Abstract Objectives: Based on the "linked lives" tenant of the life course perspective, this longitudinal study aims to examine the actor and partner effects of social participation on cognitive function in older Chinese couples.
    Methods: A total of 1,706 couples aged 60 and older were included in the final analyses. Social participation was measured using 2 questions regarding types of activities and frequency. Cognitive function was measured using a combination of memory, orientation, visuoconstruction, attention, and calculation. The lagged-dependent APIM was used to model the dyadic associations between social participation and cognitive function.
    Results: The time-averaged actor effects of both husbands' and wives' social participation on their own cognitive function were significant (p < .001 for both). The time-averaged partner effect of husbands' social participation on wives' cognitive function was significant (p < .001) but the reverse-the effect of wives' social participation on husbands' cognitive function-was not (p = .381). The time-specific actor and partner effects were not significant (p > .05 for all).
    Discussion: Our findings indicate an asymmetrical pattern of actor-partner interdependence, where husbands' social participation may affect their wives' cognitive function on average, but wives' social participation does not affect their husbands' cognitive function. Clinical practitioners should invite both partners, especially husbands, to participate in social participation interventions to facilitate crossover benefits for wives. Moreover, policymakers should build more facilities to encourage older couples to engage in social activities to prevent cognitive decline.

    Abstract [Purpose/Significance]This paper analyzes the structure of academic origin and the characteristics of talent mobility between universities, and puts forward suggestions on optimizing the structure of academic origin and rationally arranging talent resource to optimize the structure of the scientific research team and promote academic innovation and scientific research output. [Method/Process] This article uses statistical analysis and social network analysis methods to analyze the academic origin structure of scientific and technological talent in the field of artificial intelligence in Chinese universities from the aspects of hierarchy, extensiveness, and aggregation. At the same time, the talent mobility network between universities in this field is explored from the aspects of trans-school mobility, trans-regional mobility and university attribute. [Results/Conclusions] This article proposes that universities should change their concept of employment, introduce talent competition mechanisms, openly recruit talent from all over the world, and create more academic exchange opportunities such as increasing learning exchange programs between universities. The government needs to strengthen policy guidance, increase funding support, formulate laws and regulations, etc., in order to achieve the goal of optimizing the structure of academic origin, promoting the mobility of talent, and rationalizing the structure of the scientific research team.

    Abstract Egg recognition and rejection are the most common and effective anti-parasitic strategies against avian brood parasitism in terms of maintaining stability over time and plasticity in response to environmental cues. Conversely, parasites have evolved multiple counter-adaptations to the anti-parasitic defenses of hosts. Among them, the crypsis hypothesis suggests that eggs that appear more cryptic in color and are closely matched to the environment are helping to counter the egg recognition strategy of the host. In this study, we investigated whether the egg recognition ability of Oriental reed warblers (

    Abstract The dyes in printing and dyeing wastewater are harmful to the human body and the environment. It is essential to develop practical and effective adsorbents to deal with them. In this study, an Fe-doped, ZIF-67 derived Fe/Co/C composite material with strong magnetism was successfully synthesized. The effects of pH, initial concentration, and adsorption time on the properties of the adsorbent were investigated. To further improve the removal efficiency and enhance the practicality, potassium peroxymonosulfate (PMS) was added to the system due to its Fenton-like effect. Then, an Fe/Co/C composite was used with PMS to remove Congo red (CR) with a 98% removal of 250 mg·L

    Abstract Background: Drought severely limits sunflower production especially at the seedling stage. To investigate the response mechanism of sunflowers to drought stress, we utilized two genotypes of sunflower materials with different drought resistances as test materials. The physiological responses were investigated under well-watered (0 h) and drought-stressed conditions (24 h, 48 h, and 72 h).
    Results: ANOVA revealed the greatest differences in physiological indices between 72 h of drought stress and 0 h of drought stress. Transcriptome analysis was performed after 72 h of drought stress. At 0 h, there were 7482 and 5627 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the leaves of K55 and K58, respectively, and 2150 and 2527 DEGs in the roots of K55 and K58, respectively. A total of 870 transcription factors (TFs) were identified among theDEGs, among which the high-abundance TF families included AP2/ERF, MYB, bHLH,and WRKY. Five modules were screened using weighted gene coexpressionnetwork analysis (WGCNA), three and two of which were positively and negatively, respectively, related to physiological traits. KEGG analysis revealedthat under drought stress, "photosynthesis", "carotenoid biosynthesis", "starch and sucrose metabolism", "ribosome", "carotenoid biosynthesis", "starch and sucrose metabolism", "protein phosphorylation" and "phytohormone signaling" are six important metabolic pathways involved in the response of sunflower to drought stress. Cytoscape software was used to visualize the three key modules, and the hub genes were screened. Finally, a total of 99 important candidate genes that may be associated with the drought response in sunflower plants were obtained, and the homology of these genes was compared with that in Arabidopsis thaliana.
    Conclusions: Taken together, our findings could lead to a better understanding of drought tolerance in sunflowers and facilitate the selection of drought-tolerant sunflower varieties.

    Abstract Territorial animals show less aggression during intrusion by neighbours than by strangers, a phenomenon known as the “dear enemy effect”. Recent studies have shown that the dear enemy effect is variable in some birds throughout the breeding season. However, there is limited research on changes in dear enemy effects in songbirds during the breeding season. In this study, we monitored dusky warblers (Phylloscopus fuscatus) throughout their breeding stages, conducting playback experiments simulating incursions by neighbours and strangers during their egg-laying and incubation/nestling periods, and recording physical responses and song responses from territory owners. The results showed that male dusky warblers responded similarly to neighbours and strangers during the female egg-laying period, but there was a significantly stronger response to strangers than to neighbours during the incubation/nestling period. This suggests that male dusky warblers adjust the intensity of their defences against neighbours according to the reproductive status of their own mate. This may be because neighbouring males threaten the paternity of territorial males during the egg-laying period, so territorial males demote the 'dear enemy' friendly relationships with their neighbours to defend their mate and paternity. In contrast, during the non-reproductive period of females, when neighbours are less of a threat to the paternity of territorial males, lowering defences against neighbouring males allow them to devote more time and energy to activities that improve their fitness, such as foraging and seeking extra-pair mating.

    Abstract Background: Since HIV has evolved into a lifelong but manageable condition, improving the quality of life (QoL) of persons living with HIV (PLWHs) has become increasingly important. Living with HIV is life-altering and poses substantial challenges for both PLWHs and their partners, so identifying how HIV serodiscordant couples cope with HIV together is crucial. Here, Bodenmann's Systemic Transaction Model highlights common dyadic coping (CDC), which refers to both partners working together to alleviate the negative effects of stress.
    Purpose: We examined the mediating role of CDC in linking we-disease appraisal with relationship satisfaction and QoL.
    Methods: We recruited a convenience sample of 231 HIV serodiscordant couples via local grassroots organizations between June and October 2022. Participants completed measures of we-disease appraisal, CDC, relationship satisfaction, and QoL. We examined the mediation effect of CDC on the association between we-disease appraisal and outcomes using the common fate mediation model.
    Results: The mean age of PLWHs was 32.18 years (standard deviation = 8.61 years), and that of their partners was 32.55 years (standard deviation = 9.24 years). The average time since HIV diagnosis was 4.18 years. Most couples were same-sex male couples. We found that CDC mediated the effect of we-disease appraisal on relationship satisfaction. Moreover, CDC significantly mediated the effect of we-disease appraisal on the QoL of PLWHs and their partners.
    Conclusions: Our findings highlight the importance of CDC in dyadic illness management among Chinese HIV serodiscordant couples.
