    Abstract Muscle health plays an important role in most common age-related diseases and injuries. To date, a standardized quantitative method to assess muscle health has not yet been developed. Principal component analysis was employed to develop a predictive equation of muscular age based on muscle health variables including skeletal muscle mass of lower limb, grip strength and maximal gait speed. Then validity of muscular age was tested by comparing chronological age to muscular age of the elderly. A predictive equation of muscular age was developed. Muscular age = 0.690 × chronological age - 1.245 × skeletal muscle mass of lower limb + 0.453 × grip strength - 1.291 × maximal walking speed + 40.547. Cross-sectional validity test showed that the predictive equation of muscular age is a valid method to assess muscle health. It is applicable not only to the normal elderly but to the elderly with pre-sarcopenia or sarcopenia.

    Abstract Aim: This study investigated the prevalence of possible sarcopenia (PSA) in a large sample of middle-aged and older adults, and determined the association between PSA, major chronic diseases and the number of chronic diseases.
    Methods: A total of 14 917 adults aged ≥40 years were included in the analysis. The handgrip strength and the five-time chair stand test were used to assess PSA. The participants' major chronic diseases were divided into 14 categories. Four categories were created based on the participants' number of chronic illnesses: 0, 1, 2 and ≥3.
    Results: The present study found an overall prevalence of PSA of 23.6% among Chinese middle-aged and older adults aged ≥40 years, with the risk increasing with advancing age. PSA was significantly associated with most categories of chronic diseases and multimorbidity. The closely independent associations were obtained for stroke; emotional, nervous or psychiatric problems; chronic lung disease, asthma, heart disease, hypertension and arthritis or rheumatism. Compared with participants with 0 chronic disease, those with two or more chronic diseases had higher odds for PSA. However, the association between PSA and the number of chronic diseases varied in different sex and age groups.
    Conclusions: The findings suggest that PSA is associated with major chronic diseases among middle-aged and older adults. People with two or more chronic diseases have a greater likelihood of PSA compared with those without chronic diseases, and the association between PSA and the number of chronic diseases largely depended on sex and age.

    Abstract This study aimed to determine the relationship between successful aging (SA) and anthropometric parameters in older adults. We used body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, hip circumference, and calf circumference to reflect anthropometric parameters. SA was assessed by the following five aspects: self-rated health, self-rated psychological status or mood, cognitive function, activities of daily life, and physical activity. Logistic regression analyses were employed to examine the relationship between anthropometric parameters and SA. Results showed that larger BMI, waist circumference, and calf circumference are related to a higher prevalence of SA in older women; greater waist circumference and calf circumference are associated with a higher rate of SA in old-old adults. These findings suggest that the greater BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, and calf circumference are associated with a higher rate of SA in older adults, and the associations are influenced to some extent by the sex and age.

    Abstract Rice is common in the human diet, making rice safety issues important. Moreover, rice processing safety is key for rice security, so rice processing chain risk assessment is critical. However, methods proposed to assess the rice processing chain risk have issues, such as the use of unreasonable thresholds for the rice processing chain and fixed weight. To solve these problems, we propose a risk assessment method for the rice processing chain based on a multidimensional trapezoidal cloud model. First, an evaluation model based on a multidimensional trapezoidal cloud model was established. Based on the historical evaluation results, Atanassov's interval-valued intuition language numbers (AIVILNs) were introduced to determine the cloud model's parameters. Second, the concept of dynamic weight was introduced to integrate the static and dynamic weights. An exponential function was used to construct dynamic weighting mechanisms, and the analytic hierarchy stage (AHP) was used to construct a static weight. The proposed method was validated by 104 sets of rice processing chain data, and the results show that the method could evaluate the risk level of the rice processing chain more accurately and reasonably than other methods, indicating that it can provide a sound decision-making basis for food safety supervision authorities.

    Abstract This study explored the association of physical activity (PA) from different dimensions including intensity, frequency, duration, and volume with possible sarcopenia (PSA), and established the PA cut-off value to identify PSA in middle-aged and older adults. The data in this study were from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study in 2015. There were 7,957 adults aged over 45 years in the analysis. PA was assessed using a modified version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form. Muscle strength and physical performance were measured to define PSA. Results showed that men spending at least 3 days each week, more than 10 min each time on vigorous-intensity PA, or a minimum of 933 Mets on total PA each week had a lower risk of PSA. In women, spending at least 3 days each week, more than 30 min each time on moderate-intensity PA, or taking at least 6 days each week, more than 120 min each time on low-intensity PA, or a minimum of 933 Mets on total PA each week was associated with a lower risk of PSA. In older adults (≥ 65 years), spending at least one day each week, more than 30 min each time on vigorous-intensity PA, or taking a minimum of 933 Mets on total PA each week was linked with a decreased risk of PSA. However, no significant associations were found between any PA dimensions and PSA in middle-aged adults (45-64 years). A receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that the PA cut-off value was 695 and 693 Mets each week for predicting PSA for men and women. The findings suggested that the intensity, frequency, duration, and weekly volume of PA is associated with the risk of PSA in middle-aged and older adults, and the association largely depends on sex and age. The PA cut-off value may be an early indication for a higher risk of sarcopenia.

    Abstract Objectives: Muscle strength gradually decreases with advancing age. This study aimed to explore the relationship between handgrip strength and successful aging and its specific dimensions in older adults using a nationally representative sample.
    Methods: A total of 5269 adults aged 60 and older were included in this study. Handgrip strength was measured using a dynamometer and was organized into quartiles by sex. Successful aging was defined by Rowe and Kahn's conceptual model including the following five dimensions: (a) no major diseases; (b) freedom from disability; (c) high cognitive function; (d) good psychological status; and (e) active social engagement in life. Logistic regression models were used to examine the association between handgrip strength and successful aging and its specific dimensions.
    Results: The prevalence of successful aging was found to be 35.1 % in Chinese older adults. Compared to older adults with handgrip strength in the first quartile, those with handgrip strength in the second quartile, third quartile, and fourth quartile had a higher probability of successful aging (adjusted odds ratio (OR): 1.40 (95 % CI: 1.16, 1.69) to 2.06 (95 % CI: 1.70, 2.50)). We further found that the association between handgrip strength and successful aging was related to different ages.
    Conclusion: This study suggested that there is a close association between handgrip strength and successful aging. Older adults who have greater handgrip strength can successfully deal with the challenges of aging. For older people, keeping a high level of muscle strength in late life may be helpful to the constant successful aging.

    Abstract Background/objectives: This study was designed to investigate the association between specific leisure activities and successful aging among older adults, using data from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey.
    Methods: A total of 7689 older adults were involved in this study and categorized as successful aging group (n = 3989; 51.8%) or non-successful aging group (n = 3703; 48.2%). Participants were identified as successful aging if they had a score of more than 3 points, or as non-successful aging. The points were based on the following five items and each item was assigned 1 point: self-rated health, self-rated psychological status or mood, cognitive function, activities of daily life, and physical activity. Six activities including gardening work, reading newspapers or books, raising domestic animals or pets, playing cards or mahjong, watching TV or listening to radio, and participating in social activities were collected to reflect leisure activities. Chi-square tests, independent sample
    Results: The prevalence of successful aging was 51.8% among Chinese older adults. A significant positive relationship was found between the frequency of participation in specific leisure activities and successful aging (p < 0.05). Older adults who usually participated in leisure activities had greater odds for successful aging compared to those who never participated in leisure activities (adjusted odds ratio (OR): 1.31 (95% CI: 1.15-1.49) to 1.88 (95% CI: 1.62-2.19)). Older adults participating in one or more leisure activities had greater odds for successful aging compared to those who did not participate in leisure activities (adjusted OR: 1.51 (95% CI: 1.30-1.76) to 4.10 (95% CI: 2.44-6.89)).
    Conclusions: The findings provide evidence that participating more frequently and in more leisure activities was associated with a greater probability of successful aging among Chinese older adults. Encouraging older people to participate frequently in a larger number of leisure activities may be a key to promote successful aging. Therefore, the frequency and number of participation in leisure activities should be highlighted and targeted for promoting successful aging.

    Abstract Spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SSPPs) have been developed rapidly because of the advantages of strong field constraints, low inter-channel cross talk, and low loss. However, the functions of plasmonic devices made of traditional passive SSPPs are completely fixed and cannot reach reconfigurable capability once the devices are fabricated. For the current development status, it is an urgent issue to design a reconfigurable device to control SPP waves dynamically in real time. This paper proposes a dynamic reconfigurable bandstop filter by using the concept of programmable SSPPs. The filter has a significant regulation function in the wideband range from 4 GHz to 22 GHz. The center frequency, number, and bandwidth of the stop band can be reconstructed in real time by programming the bias voltage, and the transmission coefficient (
