BACKGROUND/AIMS
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) are distinct diseases, yet many glaucoma cases in population-based datasets lack subtype specification. We assessed incidence patterns of glaucoma subtypes in China and the UK and used genetic evidence to infer the likely subty...

BACKGROUND
To evaluate and recalibrate commonly used 10-year cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk prediction models in two Chinese cohorts: the general population and adults with type 2 diabetes.
METHODS
We analysed data from the Wuzhong subcohort of the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) and the Jiangsu Biobank for the Preve...

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is one of the most polymorphic and disease-relevant regions of the human genome, yet the downstream effects of MHC variation on circulating protein networks across ancestries remain incompletely defined. Here, we conducted multi-ancestry protein quantitative trait locus (pQTL)...

BACKGROUND
Evidence regarding the effects of air pollution on bone damage remains limited and inconclusive. We aimed to investigate the individual and combined associations of long-term exposure to ambient air pollutants with fracture risk and bone mineral density (BMD).
METHODS
This study included 490,172 participan...

Smoking and solid fuel are common exposures among Chinese adults, yet evidence regarding their associations with cancer mortality remains inconsistent, and their joint effects are insufficiently studied. Using data from the Pengzhou site of the China Kadoorie Biobank in Sichuan Province, we applied Cox proportional haz...

Long-term air pollution was associated with higher risks of clinically significant liver-related outcomes and a possible role of proteomic aging in the association between air pollution and liver-related outcomes is suggested, warranting further investigation.
The combined application of microbial inoculation and seedling transplanting is recommended for large-scale and high-quality cultivation of G. uralensis in moderately saline-alkali soils of arid northwestern China, as this integrated practice maximizes plant growth, medicinal compound accumulation, and rhizosphere micr...
