Morbidity is related to a green living environment [PDF]

, 2009
Background: As a result of increasing urbanisation, people face the prospect of living in environments with few green spaces. There is increasing evidence for a positive relation between green space in people's living environment and self-reported ...

Perceived urban green and residents’ health in Beijing

SSM: Population Health, 2021
Green space serves urban residents in various functions including promoting health, but the roles of different types of green space are unclear. A survey titled “Healthy Neighborhood” was conducted in Beijing from May to July 2019 to examine and compare ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Does access to neighbourhood green space promote a healthy duration of sleep? Novel findings from a cross-sectional study of 259 319 Australians [PDF]

, 2013
Objectives: Experiments demonstrate that exposure to parks and other 'green spaces' promote favourable psychological and physiological outcomes. As a consequence, people who reside in greener neighbourhoods may also have a lower risk of short sleep ...

Evaluating Neighborhood Green-Space Quality Using a Building Blue–Green Index (BBGI) in Nanjing, China

Land, 2022
High-quality urban green space (UGS) is an integral part of a livable city. The scientific evaluation of UGS has great value for improving the quality and efficiency of green spaces.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Contribution of non-park green space to the equity of urban green space accessibility

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Urban green space (UGS) plays a critical role in promoting a sustainable development of urban ecology and improving inhabitants’ well-beings. Equal access to UGS is vital for enjoying the benefits of UGS.

Identification of a Shiga toxin A‐derived peptide internalized into Gb3 receptor‐bearing cells via interaction with the Shiga toxin B subunit

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...

Assessment of environmentally suitable sites for solid waste sanitary landfill using analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and GIS in Uyo and environs, South-South Nigeria

Smart Construction and Sustainable Cities
Rapid urban growth in the Global South makes it harder to choose infrastructure corridors, especially in sensitive coastal basins. This study introduces a spatial decision-support framework tailored to local conditions.
