Association between vitamin C intake and thyroid function among U.S. adults: a population-based study by Jie Wu, Chuyu Jia, Qiang Wang, Xin Li

“…Additionally, we found an inverted U-shaped curve pattern in the relationship between vitamin C intake and FT4 (P for nonlinear = 0.029), while an U-shaped curve relationship was observed between vitamin C consumption and the FT3/FT4 ratio (P for nonlinear = 0.026).ConclusionThe findings of our study have illustrated a notable correlation between vitamin C intake and thyroid function. A high level of vitamin C intake is associated with a decreased in TT4 levels among American adults, and the association was more pronounced among subjects with lower alcohol consumption. …”

A Generalized Shape Function for Vibration Suppression Analysis of Acoustic Black Hole Beams Based on Fractional Calculus Theory by Jun Xu, Ning Chen

“…In this paper, a generalized acoustic black hole (ABH) beam covered with a viscoelastic layer is proposed to improve the energy dissipation based on the double-parameter Mittag–Leffler (ML) function. Since fractional-order constitutive models can more accurately capture the properties of viscoelastic materials, a fractional dynamic model of an ABH structure covered with viscoelastic film is established based on the fractional Kelvin–Voigt constitutive equation and the mechanical analysis of composite structures. …”
