    Abstract Background: Physical activity contributes to both physiological and psychosocial benefits for children and adolescents with disabilities. However, the prevalence of physical inactivity is notably higher among disabled young people compared to their healthy peers. Despite this, there is a lack of constructed knowledge structure, evolutionary path, research hotspots, and frontiers in studies related to physical activity in young people with disabilities.
    Methods: The literature related to the research of physical activity in children and adolescents with disabilities was retrieved from the core collection of the Web of Science. The annual publication numbers and the timing, frequency, and centrality of the co-occurrence network with respect to journals, countries, institutions, authors, references, and keywords were analyzed. Additionally, clustering analysis and burst analysis were performed on the references and keywords. All analyses were conducted using CiteSpace.
    Results: A total of 1308 related articles were included. The knowledge structure of research on the physical activity of disabled children and adolescents, including annual publication numbers, influencing journals, countries, institutions, authors, references, and keywords along with their respective collaborative networks, has been constructed. Furthermore, the research foundation, current hot topics, and research frontiers have been identified by analyzing references and keywords.
    Conclusions: Current research hotspots include interventions, therapies, and programs aimed at enhancing specific skills, as well as addressing the satisfaction of competence to improve motivation and the effectiveness of physical activity. There is also a focus on the development of scales for quantitative studies. Future directions may be toward personalized interventions or programs to enhance physical activity levels among youth with disabilities.

    Abstract Background: A proper evaluation on the intention of using nutrition label in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) is crucial to design and formulate of behavior-based interventions. A valid and reliable instrument based on theoretical basis is needed to measure individual intention toward nutrition label use and identify underlying socio-cognitive factors.
    Object: To develop and test validity and reliability of the theoretically based nutrition label use (NLU) scale and to promote the use of nutrition labels in CHD patients.
    Methods: A questionnaire was developed based on the theory of planned behavior (TPB), empirical literatures, expert review and pilot tested. A total of 460 CHD patients in a hospital in Changsha were investigated using this questionnaire from April 2021 to August 2021. The items and dimensions in the scale were explored and confirmed using item-analysis, content validity, exploratory factor analytical (EFA), confirmatory factor analytical (CFA), internal consistency and split-half reliability tests.
    Results: A total of 33 items with 4 structural factors were identified, including 10 items of attitude, 6 items of subjective norm, 12 items of perceived behavior control, and 5 items of intention. The total variance explained by the EFA model was 68.563%. The model was further tested with CFA. The measurement model fitted the data well (Ratio of chi-square minimum and degree of freedom (CMIN/DF) =1.743, goodness of fit index (GFI) =0.814, incremental fit index (IFI) =0.946, Tuker-Lewis index (TLI) =0.940, the comparative fit index (CFI) =0.945, the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) =0.057). The content validation index (CVI) of the scale was 0.82, and the CVI of the items ranged from 0.8 to 1.00. The reliability of the scale was 0.976 (
    Conclusion: The newly developed Nutrition Label Use Scale can serve as a valid and reliable tool to evaluate the nutrition label use of CHD patients.

    Abstract Although applying widely used ZnSO₄ at high spraying rates provides high Zn concentration in some crops, it usually causes leaf burn and yield and fertilizer losses. Whether chelated Zn fertilizers can improve Zn concentration in edible roots of sweet potato while concomitantly avoiding apparent adverse effects deserves detailed study. Field experiments were conducted in 2019 and 2020 on two sweet potato cultivars to study the effects of foliar spraying of three typical Zn sources (i.e. zinc sulfate heptahydrate [ZnSO₄], EDTA-chelated zinc [ZnEDTA], and glycine-chelated zinc [ZnGly]) at normal to high spraying Zn rates of 1.19, 2.39, 4.78 and 7.16 kg ha⁻¹. The results showed that excess ZnSO₄ spray caused greater damage to the leaves of cultivar Tianfeng1 than to those of cultivar Pushu90, whereas both chelated Zn fertilizers reduced the extent of foliar burn on the two cultivars. ZnGly achieved a higher biofortification level than ZnEDTA and higher yield level than ZnSO₄. ZnGly facilitated the most efficient storage of Zn in the edible roots, and the highest Zn use efficiency was observed under ZnGly treatment at spraying rates of 1.19 or 2.39 kg ha⁻¹. In summary, the high fertilizer efficiency and safety threshold spraying rate of ZnGly are potentially useful for Zn biofortification of sweet potato.

    Abstract Bacterial leaf blight (BLB) and bacterial leaf streak (BLS)-caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc), respectively-are two major bacterial diseases that threaten the safe production of rice, one of the most important food crops. Bacteriophages are considered potential biocontrol agents against rice bacterial pathogens, due to their host specificity and environmental safety. It is common for BLB and BLS to occur together in fields, which highlights the need for broad-spectrum phages capable of infecting both Xoo and Xoc. In this study, two lytic broad-spectrum phages (pXoo2106 and pXoo2107) that can infect various strains of Xoo and Xoc were assessed. Both phages belong to the class Caudoviricetes and one of them to the family Autographiviridae, while the other belongs to an unclassified family. Two phages alone or combined in a phage cocktail could effectively inhibit Xoo and Xoc growth in vitro. In an in vivo biocontrol experiment, the phage cocktail reduced the total CFU and significantly eased the symptoms caused by Xoo or Xoc. Our results suggest that pXoo2106 and pXoo2107 have a broad-spectrum host range targeting different X. oryzae strains, and have strong biocontrol potential in field applications against both BLB and BLS.

    Abstract In this article, a 1.2-kV-rated double-trench 4H-SiC MOSFET with an integrated low-barrier diode (DT-LBDMOS) is proposed which eliminates the bipolar degradation of the body diode and reduces switching loss while increasing avalanche stability. A numerical simulation verifies that a lower barrier for electrons appears because of the LBD; thus, a path that makes it easier for electrons to transfer from the N+ source to the drift region is provided, finally eliminating the bipolar degradation of the body diode. At the same time, the LBD integrated in the P-well region weakens the scattering effect of interface states on electrons. Compared with the gate p-shield trench 4H-SiC MOSFET (GPMOS), the reverse on-voltage (

    Abstract Background: This study explored the effects of multi-component exercise training on the physical and cognitive function of the elderly with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
    Methods: A total of 90 older adults with MCI were chosen from screened volunteers and randomly assigned into 2 groups (n=45), and 84 completed the 6-month follow-up. Participants in the control group received general community health instruction, while the multi-component exercise training performed on the other group. The multi-component exercise training performed on these participants was designed to suit Chinese elderly based on advice from the nursing specialist and sports medicine specialist after the preliminary experiment. The Chinese version Mini-Physical Performance Test (CM-PPT), the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores were examined by repeated measures analysis of variance to evaluate the physical and cognitive function of adults with MCI before and at 3 and 6 months after the intervention. The follow-up data collectors were blinded to group allocation. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
    Results: (I) The average score of CM-PPT was increased from 11.36±2.69 to 11.88±2.40 and 12.83±2.19 in 3 and 6 months respectively after intervention, while control group was decreased from 10.79±2.73 to 10.24±2.62 in 3 months and 9.21±2.09 in 6 months. CM-PPT scores with the main intervention effect and the interaction between intervention and time were both statistically significant (P<0.05), indicating that the physical function of participants with MCI were improved after intervention. (II) The average score of MoCA was increased from 21.52±2.05 to 23.48±1.47 (3 months) and 25.19±1.29 (6 months) after intervention, while control group was decreased from 21.14.79±1.97 to 20.21±1.88 and 19.45±2.00 in 3 and 6 months. The score of MMSE showed the same trend with the score of MoCA. The MoCA score with main intervention effect and the MMSE and MoCA scores with the effect of time, the MMSE and MoCA scores with the interaction between the intervention and time were all statistically significant (P<0.05), showing that the cognitive function of participants with MCI was improved by the intervention.
    Conclusions: Multi-component exercise training could significantly improve physical function and cognitive function of the elderly with MCI.

    Abstract Replacing inorganic fertilizer with organic substrate contributes to sustainable agricultural production capacity. However, the effects of organic substitution regimes (OSR) on global crop productivity, soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) losses and biofertility as function of environmental variables have not been systematically quantified. Here, we have conducted a meta-analysis of these effects using field data (211 papers with 852 observations) collected around the world. Results indicated that OSR increased crop productivity (3.04 %) and soil biofertility (soil qMBC, qMBN, microbial richness, Shannon and functionality by 11.4 %, 21.1 %, 10.2 %, 3.95 %, and 38.5 %, respectively), and reduced soil N losses (N
