Exercise training alters resting brain-derived neurotrophic factor concentration in older adults: A systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized-controlled trials by Farhad Gholami, Javad Mesrabadi, Mohadeseh Iranpour, Adel Donyaei

“…Exercise training with the duration of 12 weeks (SMD =0.65), moderate-to-vigorous (SMD = 0.83) and vigorous intensity (SMD = 0.71), and 3–4 sessions per week frequency (SMD = 0.78) yielded the largest effects on BDNF elevation. Since BDNF represents a fundamental contribution in neuronal processes and is linked to brain health, exercise training may help delay aging-related neuro-degenerative processes. …”

Spatio-temporal evolution and driving forces of urban gravity centers and ecological security risk gravity centers in China by Peng Chen, Jiaojiao Duan, Yihan Wang

“…The ecological security risk gravity centers are situated closer to the geometric centers. (2) The migration trajectories can be broadly divided into two phases: from 2000 to 2010, the migration distance of the urban gravity centers in larger cities exceeded that in smaller cities, whereas from 2010 to 2020, the overall migration distance was more significant than that from 2000 to 2010. (3) The urban gravity centers and the ecological security risk gravity centers are influenced not only by natural factors such as elevation and terrain fluctuations but also by human factors based on population movement and development, as well as other factors, including infrastructure shifts driven by real-time policies.…”

Effects of No-tillage of Rice on Blue and Green Water at Basin Scale by LUO Kaisheng

“…It is of great significance to study the hydrological effect of no-tillage of rice for the popularization of no-tillage technology and the sustainable development of agriculture.However,previous studies were mainly conducted at station scale,and the effect of no-tillage of rice on blue-green water at basin scale is still unclear.Taking the Xiangjiang River Basin as the test area,based on the land use data,digital elevation data,soil data,agricultural management data in 2000 and meteorological data-driven SWAT model,this paper simulates the effect of no-tillage of rice on blue water (water yield+deep groundwater recharge) and green water (actual evapotranspiration+soil moisture content) in the basin.The results show that:Compared with traditional tillage,no-tillage of rice had a greater influence on recharge of deep groundwater,resulting in a decrease of 5.62%,which was 5.35% higher than that of water yield.However,the change of blue water was mainly attributed to the change of water yield,whose contribution was 72.46%.The green water flow (actual evapotranspiration) decreased by 8.460×10⁷ m³ due to no-tillage of rice,but the increase of green water reservoir (soil moisture content) offset these and eventually resulted in the increase of green water.Therefore,the change of blue-green water distribution under no-tillage of rice was mainly achieved by changing water yield and soil moisture content.The water yield mainly caused the change of blue water,while the soil moisture content mainly resulted in the change of green water.Due to the mutual offset of hydrological factors,there was no significant final effect of no-tillage rice on the blue-green water of the whole basin,but large spatial differences within the basin.No-tillage of rice increased the proportion of green water in the total water resources,and increased the ecological water available in the farmland ecosystem,so it played a positive role.…”
