    Abstract Coal-dependent industries are the economic pillar of many countries; however, their contribution to air pollution also restricts long-term economic development. While the negative effects of environmental regulations on coal-dependent industries has attracted much attention, the health effects of such regulations remains barely quantitatively studied. Our study is based on a quasi-natural experiment created by a command-and-control policy in China’s cement industry, whereby cement enterprises are forced to stop production for a specific period of time every year. This paper adopted DID methods and found that direct pollution control measures for coal-dependent industries could significantly improve residents’ health levels and that the resultant reduction in medical expenditures could save 456.8 RMB yuan per capita per year. Additionally, our mechanism analysis found that the COPP is beneficial to residents’ health in that it reduces air pollution and sewage treatment rates. This means that pollution from coal-dependent industries has a large and underestimated impact on residents’ health. Environmental regulation of the coal-dependent industry could greatly improve the health of residents.

    Abstract Abstract Based on the characteristics of controllable intelligence of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the requirements of the new distribution Network for function and transmission delay, this study proposes a method of combining edge collaborative computing and distribution Network station area, and builds a distribution Network management structure model by combining the Packet Transport Network (PTN) Network structure. The multi-terminal node distribution model of distributed IoT is established. Finally, a distribution IoT management model is constructed based on the edge multi-node cooperative reasoning algorithm and collaborative computing architecture model. The purpose of this paper is to solve the problem of large reasoning delay caused by heavy computing tasks in distribution cloud servers. The final results show that the model reduces the inference delay of cloud computing when a large number of smart device terminals of distribution IoT are connected to the network.

    Abstract This paper is aimed at exploring the characteristics of research on prevention and treatment of sports injuries and rehabilitation physical training of Wushu athletes. It also considers the application of rehabilitation physical training in the rehabilitation of Wushu athletes. By searching literature, conducting questionnaires, and combining mathematical statistics, it studies the injury prevention and rehabilitation training of Wushu athletes. This paper chooses the level of first class and above of sports, and a total of 50 elite male and female Wushu athletes were systematically trained as subjects of study. Athletes, aged 15 to 20 years, were trained for 2 to 5 years, 35 male athletes and 15 female athletes. Different from traditional rehabilitation therapy, athletes’ physical rehabilitation training is also different from traditional sports rehabilitation treatment. By evaluating the physical condition of athletes, the causes of sports injuries were analyzed, to formulate special rehabilitation training programs and carry out athletes’ rehabilitation training targeted and purposeful. Record the experimental data and analyze the experimental results. The experimental results show that physical rehabilitation training can make athletes avoid the influence of unsafe factors of sports injury, improve the safety of training, and effectively prevent sports injury. The experimental results show that physical rehabilitation training combined with rehabilitation medicine has obvious advantages, which can make Wushu athletes recover quickly without sequelae.

    Abstract Avoiding the transfer of “carbon” and encouraging the digestion of “carbon” are essential to promote the green and low-carbon transformation of China’s economy. In accordance with the standpoint of off-site subsidiaries, this paper examines the transfer of “carbon” from high-carbon enterprises using the data of A-share listed companies from 2009 to 2018 using a DID approach and the 2013 China carbon emissions trading pilot as a quasi-natural experiment. As demonstrated by the reach findings: (1) Part of the effect of corporate “carbon reduction” is achieved by shifting high-carbon sectors. (2) As demonstrated in mechanism analysis, when high-carbon companies face the dual cost pressure of R&D expenditure and purchasing carbon trading rights, they will establish subsidiaries to avoid the parent company’s pressure to lessen emissions. As revealed in heterogeneity analysis. (3) companies with stronger R&D capabilities and higher success rates are more willing to respond to the impact of carbon trading policies with technological upgrades. Companies with weaker R&D capabilities and higher failure rates are more likely to choose to transfer “carbon” to avoid the “dual cost” of R&D failures. (4) Owing to the constraint of the migration threshold, the trajectory of “carbon” transfer is primarily domestic interregional transfer supplemented by cross-country transfer. (5) Larger enterprises emitting more “carbon”, are not only more likely to pay more “carbon” reduction costs in the face of carbon policy shocks, are but also more likely to shift “carbon”. This study not only provides a new perspective to explain the “carbon” transfer phenomenon in China, but also provides crucial policy implications for further strengthening environmental governance as well as regional joint prevention and control in China.

    Abstract With the lifestyle change, users’ demand for furniture has shown a trend for personalization and diversification. The customized furniture market is growing rapidly and gradually becoming an indispensable choice for lifestyle items. The present qualitative study sought to identify the influencing factors and relationships of user demand for customized furniture. This study constructed a 4E semi-structured interview guide, which means that interviews were conducted from 4 dimensions: essential information, information extraction, user experience, and product expectation. The interview results were coded and analyzed in combination with grounded theory. Based on the identified 38 concepts and 10 categories, we obtain 4 main categories: fundamental condition, operation behaviour, sensory value and emotional value. For the factors that affect the demand of customized furniture users, customized furniture enterprises can start from 2 levels of publicity and product design to meet user demand and improve the user purchase probability.

    Abstract Immunotherapy, specifically immune checkpoint inhibitors, has emerged as a promising approach for treating malignant tumors. The gut, housing approximately 70 % of the body's immune cells, is abundantly populated with gut bacteria that actively interact with the host's immune system. Different bacterial species within the intestinal flora are in a delicate equilibrium and mutually regulate each other. However, when this balance is disrupted, pathogenic microorganisms can dominate, adversely affecting the host's metabolism and immunity, ultimately promoting the development of disease. Emerging researches highlight the potential of interventions such as fecal microflora transplantation (FMT) to improve antitumor immune response and reduce the toxicity of immunotherapy. These remarkable findings suggest the major role of intestinal flora in the development of cancer immunotherapy and led us to the hypothesis that intestinal flora transplantation may be a new breakthrough in modifying immunotherapy side effects.

    Abstract Exploring spatiotemporal evolution features and factors affecting pollution reduction and carbon abatement on the urban agglomeration scale is helpful to better understand the interaction between ecological environment and economic development in urban agglomerations. In this study, we constructed an evaluation index system for collaborative governance of pollution reduction and carbon abatement in urban agglomerations. In addition, we employed the correlation coefficient matrix, the composite system synergy model, the Gini coefficient, and the Theil index to evaluate the level of and regional differences in collaborative governance of pollution reduction and carbon abatement in seven urban agglomerations in the Yellow River Basin from 2006 to 2020. Moreover, we explored the factors affecting collaborative governance of pollution reduction and carbon abatement in urban agglomerations in the basin. The following findings were obtained: (1) the order degree of collaborative governance of pollution reduction and carbon abatement in the seven urban agglomerations exhibited a significant growing trend, representing a spatial evolution feature of “high in the west and low in the east”; (2) the internal differences in collaborative governance synergy of pollution reduction and carbon abatement decreased in Lanzhou–Xining Urban Agglomeration, Hohhot–Baotou–Ordos–Yulin Urban Agglomeration, Central Shanxi Urban Agglomeration, Zhongyuan Urban Agglomeration, and Shandong Peninsula Urban Agglomeration, while the internal differences basically remained stable in Guanzhong Urban Agglomeration and the Urban Agglomeration along the Yellow River in Ningxia; (3) the variances in environmental regulation and industrial structure among urban agglomerations had a significant positive effect on collaborative governance of pollution reduction and carbon abatement in urban agglomerations in the basin, and the variances in economic growth had a significant inhibitory effect. In addition, the variances in energy consumption, greening ...

    Abstract As people’s awareness of the special functions of selenium continues to deepen, the development of selenium-rich food continues to develop, and selenium-rich places have been vigorously developing this resource-based industry. The development of selenium-rich agriculture is of great significance to improve people’s quality of life and promote agricultural, rural and regional economic development. This paper analyzes the factors affecting consumers’ willingness to purchase selenium-rich agricultural products in detail through questionnaire survey data of some consumers in Jiangxi, Ensh, Hubei and Ankang, Shaanxi, using three analytical methods of descriptive statistical analysis, factor analysis and logistic regression analysis with SPSS software. The research results show that consumers’ attitude toward selenium-rich agricultural products, price concerns, consumers’ family characteristics, health and environmental protection motives, gender and other factors have certain influence on consumers’ willingness to purchase selenium-rich agricultural products, among which the attitude factor and family characteristics have the greatest influence. Finally, the market prospect of selenium-rich agricultural products in China is analyzed and prospected, and the measures and suggestions for developing selenium-rich food are proposed in response to the problems of developing selenium-rich food in China.
