| 1 | Role of PERK/eIF2α/CHOP Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Pathway in Oxidized Low-density Lipoprotein Mediated Induction of Endothelial Apoptosis显示文摘Objective PERK/eI F2α/CHOP is a major signaling pathway mediating endoplasmic reticulum(ER) stress related with atherosclerosis.Oxidized LDL(ox-LDL) also induces endothelial apoptosis and plays a vital role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis.The present study was conducted to explore the regulatory effect of ox-LDL on PERK/e IF2α/CHOP signaling pathway in vascular endothelial cells.Methods The effects of ox-LDL on PERK and p-e IF2α protein expression of primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs) were investigated by Western blot analysis.PERK gene silencing and selective eI F2α phosphatase inhibitor,salubrinal were used to inhibit the process of ox-LDL induced endothelial cell apoptosis,caspase-3 activity,and CHOP mR NA level.Results Ox-LDL treatment significantly increased the expression of PERK,PERK-mediated inactivation of e IF2α phosphorylation,and the expression of CHOP,as well as the caspase-3 activity and apoptosis.The effects of ox-LDL were markedly decreased by knocking down PERK with stable transduction of lentiviral sh RNA or by selective eI F2α phosphatase inhibitor,salubrinal.Conclusion This study provides the first evidence that ox-LDL induces apoptosis in vascular endothelial cells mediated largely via the PERK/eI F2α/CHOP ER-stress pathway.It adds new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis and progression of atherosclerosis. | TAO Yong Kang YU Pu Lin BAI Yong Ping YAN Sheng Tao ZHAO Shui Ping ZHANG Guo Qiang | 2016 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2016，29，12： | 21 |
| 2 | Association of Overlapped and Un-overlapped Comorbidities with COVID-19 Severity and Treatment Outcomes: A Retrospective Cohort Study from Nine Provinces in China显示文摘Objective Several COVID-19 patients have overlapping comorbidities. The independent role of each component contributing to the risk of COVID-19 is unknown, and how some non-cardiometabolic comorbidities affect the risk of COVID-19 remains unclear.Methods A retrospective follow-up design was adopted. A total of 1,160 laboratory-confirmed patients were enrolled from nine provinces in China. Data on comorbidities were obtained from the patients’ medical records. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate the odds ratio(OR) and 95% confidence interval(95% CI) of the associations between comorbidities(cardiometabolic or non-cardiometabolic diseases), clinical severity, and treatment outcomes of COVID-19.Results Overall, 158(13.6%) patients were diagnosed with severe illness and 32(2.7%) had unfavorable outcomes. Hypertension(2.87, 1.30–6.32), type 2 diabetes(T2 DM)(3.57, 2.32–5.49),cardiovascular disease(CVD)(3.78, 1.81–7.89), fatty liver disease(7.53, 1.96–28.96), hyperlipidemia(2.15, 1.26–3.67), other lung diseases(6.00, 3.01–11.96), and electrolyte imbalance(10.40, 3.00–26.10)were independently linked to increased odds of being severely ill. T2 DM(6.07, 2.89–12.75), CVD(8.47,6.03–11.89), and electrolyte imbalance(19.44, 11.47–32.96) were also strong predictors of unfavorable outcomes. Women with comorbidities were more likely to have severe disease on admission(5.46,3.25–9.19), while men with comorbidities were more likely to have unfavorable treatment outcomes(6.58, 1.46–29.64) within two weeks.Conclusion Besides hypertension, diabetes, and CVD, fatty liver disease, hyperlipidemia, other lung diseases, and electrolyte imbalance were independent risk factors for COVID-19 severity and poor treatment outcome. Women with comorbidities were more likely to have severe disease, while men with comorbidities were more likely to have unfavorable treatment outcomes. | MA Yan ZHU Dong Shan CHEN Ren Bo SHI Nan Nan LIU Si Hong FAN Yi Pin WU Gui Hui YANG Pu Ye BAI Jiang Feng CHEN Hong CHEN Li Ying FENG Qiao GUO Tuan Mao HOU Yong HU Gui Fen HU Xiao Mei HU Yun Hong HUANG Jin HUANG Qiu Hua HUANG Shao Zhen JI Liang JIN Hai Hao LEI Xiao LI Chun Yan LI Min Qing LI Qun Tang LI Xian Yong LIU Hong De LIU Jin Ping LIU Zhang MA Yu Ting MAO Ya MO Liu Fen NA Hui WANG Jing Wei SONG Fang Li SUN Sheng WANG Dong Ting WANG Ming Xuan WANG Xiao Yan WANG Yin Zhen WANG Yu Dong WU Wei WU Lan Ping XIAO Yan Hua XIE Hai Jun XU Hong Ming XU Shou Fang XUE Rui Xia YANG Chun YANG Kai Jun YUAN Sheng Li ZHANG Gong Qi ZHANG Jin Bo ZHANG Lin Song ZHAO Shu Sen ZHAO Wan Ying ZHENG Kai ZHOU Ying Chun ZHU Jun Teng ZHU Tian Qing ZHANG Hua Min WANG Yan Ping WANG Yong Yan 无 | 2020 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2020，33，12： | 8 |

| 4 | Protonation induced high-T_c phases in iron-based superconductors evidenced by NMR and magnetization measurements显示文摘Chemical substitution during growth is a well-established method to manipulate electronic states of quantum materials, and leads to rich spectra of phase diagrams in cuprate and iron-based superconductors. Here we report a novel and generic strategy to achieve nonvolatile electron doping in series of(i.e.11 and 122 structures) Fe-based superconductors by ionic liquid gating induced protonation at room temperature. Accumulation of protons in bulk compounds induces superconductivity in the parent compounds, and enhances the Tclargely in some superconducting ones. Furthermore, the existence of proton in the lattice enables the first proton nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) study to probe directly superconductivity. Using Fe S as a model system, our NMR study reveals an emergent high-Tcphase with no coherence peak which is hard to measure by NMR with other isotopes. This novel electric-fieldinduced proton evolution opens up an avenue for manipulation of competing electronic states(e.g.Mott insulators), and may provide an innovative way for a broad perspective of NMR measurements with greatly enhanced detecting resolution. | Yi Cui Gehui Zhang Haobo Li Hai Lin Xiyu Zhu Hai-Hu Wen Guoqing Wang Jinzhao Sun Mingwei Ma Yuan Li Dongliang Gong Tao Xie Yanhong Gu Shiliang Lie Huiqian Luo Pu Yu Weiqiang Yu | 2018 | Science Bulletin2018，63，1： | 7 |
| 5 | Ethnic Differences in Preterm Birth Risks for Pregnant Women with Thyroid Dysfunction or Autoimmunity:A Meta-analysis显示文摘Objective Abnormal maternal thyroid function is associated with preterm birth.However,this association stays dubious in relevant individual studies for ethnic difference reasons and lack of direct supporting data.This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between preterm birth and thyroid dysfunction or autoimmunity based on ethnic differences.Methods Relevant studies were identified through searches of MEDLINE,Excerpta Medica,Wan Fang,China Biological Medicine disc,and China National Knowledge Infrastructure from inception to June 15,2016.Original articles in which an incidence or prevalence of thyroid dysfunction or autoimmunity before second trimester of pregnancy could be extracted were included.Results Thirty-two unique studies were included for the final meta-analysis.Patients involved were divided into two groups:Group 1(G1) and Group 2(G2) comprising of Asian and Caucasian populations,respectively.Positive thyroid antibodies were associated with the occurrence of preterm birth in both G1 [odds ratio(OR):3.62,95% confidence interval(CI):2.83-4.65] and G2(OR:1.35,95% CI:1.17-1.56);hypothyroidism,only in G2(OR:1.20,CI:1.09-1.33);and subclinical hypothyroidism or hypothyroxinemia,in neither group.Conclusion Thyroid autoimmunity may be a more favorable factor leading to preterm birth among pregnant women of different ethnicities,compared with thyroid dysfunction. | LI Min WANG Shao Wei WU Feng Li SHI Jin YU Pu Lin PENG Xiu Ling SUN Liang | 2016 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2016，29，10： | 5 |
| 6 | The desumoylating enzyme sentrin-specific protease 3 contributes to myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury显示文摘Sentrin-specific protease 3(SENP3), a member of the desumoylating enzyme family, is known as a redox sensor and could regulate multiple cellular signaling pathways. However, its implication in myocardial ischemia reperfusion(MIR) injury is unclear. Here, we observed that SENP3 was expressed and upregulated in the mouse heart depending on reactive oxygen species(ROS) production in response to MIR injury. By utilizing si RNA-mediated cardiac specific gene silencing, SENP3 knockdown was demonstrated to significantly reduce MIR-induced infarct size and improve cardiac function. Mechanistic studies indicated that SENP3 silencing ameliorated myocardial apoptosis mainly via suppression of endoplasmic reticulum(ER) stress and mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis pathways. By contrast, adenovirusmediated cardiac SENP3 overexpression significantly exaggerated MIR injury. Further molecular analysis revealed that SENP3 promoted mitochondrial translocation of dynamin-related protein 1(Drp1) in reperfused myocardium. In addition, mitochondrial division inhibitor-1(Mdivi-1), a pharmacological inhibitor of Drp1, significantly attenuated the exaggerated mitochondrial abnormality and cardiac injury by SENP3 overexpression after MIR injury. Taken together, we provide the first direct evidence that SENP3 upregulation pivotally contributes to MIR injury in a Drp1-dependent manner, and suggest that SENP3 suppression may hold therapeutic promise for constraining MIR injury. | Lingchen Gao Yichao Zhao Jie He Yang Yan Longwei Xu Nan Lin Qingqi Ji Renyang Tong Yanan Fu Yu Gao Yuanyuan Su Ancai Yuan Ben He Jun Pu | 2018 | Journal of Genetics and Genomics2018，45，3： | 5 |
| 7 | Elevated Platelet Activating Factor Level in Ischemia-Related Arrhythmia and Its Electrophysiological Effect on Myocardium显示文摘Objective The mechanism through which platelet activating factor (PAF) induces cardiac electrical activity and arrhythmia is not well understood and previous studies have suggested a potential involvement of ion channels in its action. The present study was aimed to clarify the role of PAF in fatal arrhythmias following acute myocardia infarction (AMI) and the underlying mechanism. Methods (1) Blood PAF levels were measured among 72 AMI patients at the time of diagnosis with AMI and 48 h later, and their electrocardiogram (ECG) was recorded continuously. (2) Ischemia simulation and surface electrocardiogram were conducted in 20 pigs and their PAF levels were measured. (3) PAF perfusion and standard microelectrode recording were performed on guinea pig papillarymuscles. Results In both humans and pigs, elevated PAF levels were detected in AMI and simulated ischemia, respectively, and even higher PAF levels were found when fatal arrhythmias occurred. In guinea pig myocardium, PAF induced a shortening of action potential duration at 90% level of repolarization (APD 90 )under non-ischemic conditions and a more pronounced shortening under early simulated ischemic conditions. Conclusion AMI and ischemia are associated with increased PAF levels in humans and pigs, which are further raised when fatal arrhythmia follows. The effects of PAF on the myocardium may be mediated by multiple ion channels. | TAO Yong Kang ZHAO Shui Ping YU Pu Lin SHI Jing GU Cheng Dong SUN Hong Tao ZHANG Guo Qiang | 2013 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2013，26，5： | 5 |
| 8 | Establishment and validation of a computer-assisted colonic polyp localization system based on deep learning显示文摘BACKGROUND Artificial intelligence in colonoscopy is an emerging field,and its application may help colonoscopists improve inspection quality and reduce the rate of missed polyps and adenomas.Several deep learning-based computer-assisted detection(CADe)techniques were established from small single-center datasets,and unrepresentative learning materials might confine their application and generalization in wide practice.Although CADes have been reported to identify polyps in colonoscopic images and videos in real time,their diagnostic performance deserves to be further validated in clinical practice.AIM To train and test a CADe based on multicenter high-quality images of polyps and preliminarily validate it in clinical colonoscopies.METHODS With high-quality screening and labeling from 55 qualified colonoscopists,a dataset consisting of over 71000 images from 20 centers was used to train and test a deep learning-based CADe.In addition,the real-time diagnostic performance of CADe was tested frame by frame in 47 unaltered full-ranged videos that contained 86 histologically confirmed polyps.Finally,we conducted a selfcontrolled observational study to validate the diagnostic performance of CADe in real-world colonoscopy with the main outcome measure of polyps per colonoscopy in Changhai Hospital.RESULTS The CADe was able to identify polyps in the test dataset with 95.0%sensitivity and 99.1%specificity.For colonoscopy videos,all 86 polyps were detected with 92.2%sensitivity and 93.6%specificity in frame-by-frame analysis.In the prospective validation,the sensitivity of CAD in identifying polyps was 98.4%(185/188).Folds,reflections of light and fecal fluid were the main causes of false positives in both the test dataset and clinical colonoscopies.Colonoscopists can detect more polyps(0.90 vs 0.82,P<0.001)and adenomas(0.32 vs 0.30,P=0.045)with the aid of CADe,particularly polyps<5 mm and flat polyps(0.65 vs 0.57,P<0.001;0.74 vs 0.67,P=0.001,respectively).However,high efficacy is not realized in colonoscopies with inadequate bowel preparation and withdrawal time(P=0.32;P=0.16,respectively).CONCLUSION CADe is feasible in the clinical setting and might help endoscopists detect more polyps and adenomas,and further confirmation is warranted. | Sheng-Bing Zhao Wei Yang Shu-Ling Wang Peng Pan Run-Dong Wang Xin Chang Zhong-Qian Sun Xing-Hui Fu Hong Shang Jian-Rong Wu Li-Zhu Chen Jia Chang Pu Song Ying-Lei Miao Shui-Xiang He Lin Miao Hui-Qing Jiang Wen Wang Xia Yang Yuan-Hang Dong Han Lin Yan Chen Jie Gao Qian-Qian Meng Zhen-Dong Jin Zhao-Shen Li Yu Bai | 2021 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2021，27，31： | 5 |

| 10 | Incidence and Associated Factors for Single and Recurrent Falls among the Elderly in an Urban Community of Beijing显示文摘Objective To investigate the incidence of falls and recurrent falls, and explore associated factors for single and recurrent falls among urban community-dwelling elderly in Beijing. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in 472 elderly in the Longtan community of Dongcheng district, Beijing in 2009. Data regarding the incidence of fall and recurrent falls in the previous year, as well as associated factors were collected from the elderly through face-to-face interviews. Results The incidence of falls and recurrent falls was 17.8% and 6.1%, respectively, and it increased with age(χ2for trend=21.06, 19.20, P=0.001, 0.002). Binary logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that age(OR=2.20), living alone(OR=4.67) and gait disturbance(OR=1.27) were risk factors, while housing with elevators(OR=0.35), appropriate width/height of stair steps(OR=0.78), sufficient lighting for stairway(OR=0.45) and regular exercise(OR=0.12) could lower the risk for single fall; factors such as low monthly family income(OR=1.39), poor vision(OR=1.83), low physical ability(OR=4.47), abnormal static balance(OR=2.48), and fear of falls(OR=2.23) were risk factors, while appropriate width/height of stair steps(OR=0.49) and easiness of access to daily supplies(OR=0.41) were protective factors for recurrent falls. Conclusion The incidence of falls in community-dwelling elderly people in Beijing is common, and falls and their related injuries have been associated with both intrinsic and extrinsic factors. | SHI Jing ZHOU Bai Yu TAO Yong Kang YU Pu Lin ZHANG Chuan Fang QIN Zhao Hui SUN Zhen Qiu | 2014 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2014，27，12： | 3 |
| 11 | DEM simulation of particle flow and separation in a vibrating flip-flow screen显示文摘Vibrating flip-flow screens(VFFS)with stretchable polyurethane sieve mats have been widely used in screening fine-grained materials in recent years.In this work,the discrete element method(DEM)is used to study the screening process in VFFS to explain particle flow and separation behavior at the particle scale.Unlike traditional vibrating screens,for VFFS,the amplitude response of each point on the elastic sieve mat is different everywhere.This study measures the kinematics of the elastic sieve mat under different conditions such as different stretched lengths and material loads.To establish the elastic sieve mat model in a DEM simulation,the continuous elastic sieve mat is discretized into multiple units,and the displacement signal of each unit tested is analyzed by Fourier series.The Fourier series analysis results of each unit are used as the setting parameters for motion.In this way,the movement of the elastic sieve mat is approximately simulated,and a DEM model of VFFS is produced.Through the simulation,the flow and separation of different-sized particles in VFFS are studied,and the reasonability of the simulation is verified by a pilot-scale screening experiment.The present study demonstrates the potential of the DEM method for the analysis of screening processes in VFFS. | Chi Yu Dongdong Lin Ningning Xu Xinwen Wang Kunwei Pu Zhenghao Wang Guofeng Zhao Runhui Geng Sanpeng Gong | 2023 | Particuology2023，，2： | 2 |

| 14 | Regulation of aerobic glycolysis to decelerate tumor proliferation by small molecule inhibitors targeting glucose transporters显示文摘Dear Editor,Different from normal differentiated cells,metabolic reprogramming was spotted in cancer cells,due to increased demand for energy and macromolecule synthesis during their rapid proliferation(Hanahan and Weinberg,2011;Pavlova and Thompson,2016).Most cancer cells prefer anaerobic glycolysis even with oxygen in the environment due to its higher speed to produce macromolecular materials required for biosynthesis(Vander Heiden et al.,2009;DeBerardinis and Chandel,2016).But to compensate for the lower efficiency of anaerobic glycolysis in producing ATP,these cancer cells demand much higher glucose supply(Warburg,1956;Vander Heiden et al.,2009).These metabolic characteristics point to the huge demand of cancer cells for carbohydrate substrates,which creates the possibility of treating tumors by exploiting this feature(Patra et al.,2013;DeBerardinis and Chandel,2016). | Meng Gao Jian Huang Xin Jiang Yafei Yuan Huanhuan Pang Shuchen Luo Nan Wang Chengbo Yao Zuwan Lin Debing Pu Shuo Zhang Pengcheng Sun Zhuoyi Liu Yu Xiao Qian Wang Zeping Hu Hang Yin | 2020 | Protein & Cell2020，11，6： | 2 |

| 18 | The first four cases of successful NeoChord procedure in Chinese mainland显示文摘BACKGROUND:Transapical off-pump NeoChord procedure is a novel minimally invasive surgical repair of degenerative mitral regurgitation(MR).Here,we report the first four cases of NeoChord procedure in patients with mitral valve prolapse in Chinese mainland.METHODS:Four patients,aged 86,84,80 and 60 years,with severe MR due to posterior middle scallop prolapse(P2),underwent transapical off-pump artifi cial chordae implantation on April 9 and 10,2019.The procedure was performed by left mini-thoracotomy under general anaesthesia and guided by 2D and 3D dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography(TEE).RESULTS:Mitral valve repair via NeoChord procedure was successfully performed with implantation of 3 artifi cial chordae in the fi rst patient and 3,2,and 3 artifi cial chordae in the following patients,respectively.Intraoperative TEE and pre-discharge transthoracic echocardiography(TTE)showed only mild to moderate MR of these four patients and no postoperative complications were noted.There were no changes of TTE fi nding between one-month follow-up and pre-discharge.CONCLUSION:The successful NeoChord procedures in four Chinese indicate that the valve repair using the NeoChord system for Chinese population is feasible. | Li-han Wang Zhao-xia Pu Min-jian Kong Ju-bo Jiang Kai-da Ren Feng Gao Xin-ping Lin Lei Yu Wei He Min Yan Xian-bao Liu Jian-an Wang | 2019 | World Journal of Emergency Medicine2019，10，3： | 1 |
| 19 | Calcitriol attenuates liver fibrosis through hepatitis C virus nonstructural protein 3-transactivated protein 1-mediated TGF β1/Smad3 and NF-κB signaling pathways显示文摘BACKGROUND Hepatic fibrosis is a serious condition,and the development of hepatic fibrosis can lead to a series of complications.However,the pathogenesis of hepatic fibrosis remains unclear,and effective therapy options are still lacking.Our group identified hepatitis C virus nonstructural protein 3-transactivated protein 1(NS3TP1) by suppressive subtractive hybridization and bioinformatics analysis,but its role in diseases including hepatic fibrosis remains undefined.Therefore,additional studies on the function of NS3TP1 in hepatic fibrosis are urgently needed to provide new targets for treatment.AIM To elucidate the mechanism of NS3TP1 in hepatic fibrosis and the regulatory effects of calcitriol on NS3TP1.METHODS Twenty-four male C57BL/6 mice were randomized and separated into three groups,comprising the normal,fibrosis,and calcitriol treatment groups,and liver fibrosis was modeled by carbon tetrachloride(CCl4).To evaluate the level of hepatic fibrosis in every group,serological and pathological examinations of the liver were conducted.TGF-β1 was administered to boost the in vitro cultivation of LX-2 cells.NS3TP1,α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA),collagen I,and collagen Ⅲ in every group were examined using a Western blot and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.The activity of the transforming growth factor beta 1(TGFβ1)/Smad3 and NF-κB signaling pathways in each group of cells transfected with pcDNA-NS3TP1 or siRNA-NS3TP1 was detected.The statistical analysis of the data was performed using the Student’s t test.RESULTS NS3TP1 promoted the activation,proliferation,and differentiation of hepatic stellate cells(HSCs)and enhanced hepatic fibrosis via the TGFβ1/Smad3 and NF-κB signaling pathways,as evidenced by the presence of α-SMA,collagen I,collagen Ⅲ,p-smad3,and p-p65 in LX-2 cells,which were upregulated after NS3TP1 overexpression and downregulated after NS3TP1 interference.The proliferation of HSCs was lowered after NS3TP1 interference and elevated after NS3TP1 overexpression,as shown by the luciferase assay.NS3TP1 inhibited the apoptosis of HSCs.Moreover,both Smad3 and p65 could bind to NS3TP1,and p65 increased the promoter activity of NS3TP1,while NS3TP1 increased the promoter activity of TGFβ1 receptor I,as indicated by coimmunoprecipitation and luciferase assay results.Both in vivo and in vitro,treatment with calcitriol dramatically reduced the expression of NS3TP1.Calcitriol therapy-controlled HSCs activation,proliferation,and differentiation and substantially suppressed CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis in mice.Furthermore,calcitriol modulated the activities of the above signaling pathways via downregulation of NS3TP1.CONCLUSION Our results suggest that calcitriol may be employed as an adjuvant therapy for hepatic fibrosis and that NS3TP1 is a unique,prospective therapeutic target in hepatic fibrosis. | Liu Shi Li Zhou Ming Han Yu Zhang Yang Zhang Xiao-Xue Yuan Hong-Ping Lu Yun Wang Xue-Liang Yang Chen Liu Jun Wang Pu Liang Shun-Ai Liu Xiao-Jing Liu Jun Cheng Shu-Mei Lin | 2023 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2023，29，18： | 1 |
| 20 | Variability of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation in FGOALS-g2显示文摘The variability of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation(AMOC) in the pre-industrial control experiment of the Flexible Global Ocean–Atmosphere–Land System model, Grid-point Version 2(FGOALS-g2) was investigated using the model outputs with the most stable state in a 512-yr time window from the total 1500-yr period of the experiment. The period of AMOC in FGOALS-g2 is double peaked at 20 and 32 years according to the power spectrum, and 22 years according to an auto-correlation analysis, which shows very obvious decadal variability. Like many other coupled climate models, the decadal variability of AMOC in FGOALS-g2 is closely related to the convection that occurs in the Labrador Sea region. Deep convection in the Labrador Sea in FGOALS-g2 leads the AMOC maximum by 3–4 years. The contributions of thermal and haline effects to the variability of the convection in three different regions [the Labrador, Irminger and Greenland–Iceland– Norwegian(GIN) Seas] were analyzed for FGOALS-g2. The variability of convection in the Labrador and Irminger Seas is thermally dominant, while that in the colder GIN Seas can be mainly attributed to salinity changes due to the lower thermal expansion. By comparing the simulation results from FGOALS-g2 and 11 other models, it was found that AMOC variability can be attributed to salinity changes for longer periods(longer than 35 years) and to temperature changes for shorter periods. | HUANG Wenyu WANG Bin LI Lijuan DONG Li LIN Pengfei YU Yongqiang ZHOU Tianjun LIU Li XU Shiming XIA Kun PU Ye WANG Lu LIU Mimi SHEN Si HU Ning WANG Yong SUN Wenqi DONG Fang | 2014 | Advances in Atmospheric Sciences2014，31，1： | 1 |
