Phase angle reference values in healthy Chinese adults: A descriptive cross‐sectional study

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Phase angle serves as a robust indicator of cellular integrity and overall health status. However, reference values for phase angle among healthy Chinese adults remain poorly defined. Methods We performed a multicenter descriptive cross‐sectional study in healthy Chinese adults from 2021 to 2024. Our primary outcome was phase angle,

Usefulness of Gamma‐Glutamyl Transferase and Sequential Carbohydrate‐Deficient Transferrin for Unhealthy Alcohol Use Screening in Indigenous Communities

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unhealthy alcohol use (UAU) screening facilitates identification of patients with alcohol use problems for intervention. This study evaluates the usefulness of gamma‐glutamyl transferase (GGT) and sequential percentage of carbohydrate‐deficient transferrin (%CDT) in community screening for UAU.

Association Between Weight-Adjusted Waist Index and Depressive Symptoms in Older Adults

Hitit Medical Journal
Objective: Depression is a common and disabling condition in older adults. Identifying simple, non-invasive predictors of depression risk is essential for early intervention. The Weight-Adjusted Waist Index (WWI), a novel anthropometric marker of central adiposity, may be associated with depressive symptoms in older populations.

Effects of Changes in Metabolic Syndrome Status on Cognitive Function: A 10‐Year Study in a Middle‐Aged Population

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The long‐term cumulative impact of metabolic syndrome (MS) on cognitive decline remains uncertain. This study investigated how changes in MS status over 10 years relate to cognition and whether sex modifies this relationship. A total of 766 participants (mean baseline age: 54 years) from the Kaohsiung Atherosclerosis Longitudinal Study were ...

Lipid Profile in Primary Aldosteronism: Cross‐Sectional and Post‐Treatment Analyses

Lipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The relationship between primary aldosteronism (PA) and lipid metabolism remains controversial, with inconsistent findings reported in the literature. This study aimed to clarify PA's impact on the lipid profile using both a cross‐sectional comparison with essential hypertension (EH) controls and a longitudinal within‐patient pre‐post ...

Association between weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) and multimorbidity: Evidence from NHANES and prospective validation in CHARLS

Experimental Gerontology
Background: The burden of chronic diseases is known to be significantly increased by obesity, yet conventional measures like waist circumference (WC) and body mass index (BMI) do not accurately capture central adiposity.

Recent Advances in Photonic Bound States in the Continuum: From Fundamentals to Engineering and Implementation

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This review summarizes recent progress in meta‐photonics with a focus on bound states in the continuum (BICs) as a powerful platform for light confinement and control. It covers fundamental concepts, design strategies across optical regimes, symmetry breaking for practical quasi‐BICs, tunable and AI‐assisted BIC devices, and emerging applications in ...

Photonic Systolic Array for All‐Optical Matrix–Matrix Multiplication

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
A photonic systolic array is introduced, offering extreme parallelism in matrix‐matrix multiplication based on the synchronized movement of optical pulses along a crossbar array. Optical pulses traveling in perpendicular directions meet at freeform‐designed multiply‐accumulate units, each tailored to generate two signals whose intensity difference ...
