Longitudinal phenotypic and genomic evidence revealing increased risk of drug resistance accumulation in tuberculosis patients in the counties of central China by Fu-Lin Wang, Rong Chen, Qiao Xu, Xiao-Qin Wang, Feng-Xi Tao, Zi-Kang Huang, You-Tong Zhang, Shu-Qiong Chen, Xue-Jing Wu, Hong-Yuan Cao, Qi Jiang

“…Urgent action is needed to decentralize rapid resistance screening and implement tiered care models in primary clinics to curb transmission and mitigate the expanding DR-TB threat.IMPORTANCEThe ongoing epidemic of drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) in resource-poor settings poses a major public health challenge. This study sheds light on the evolution of DR-TB and its community transmission dynamics in central rural China, suggesting that unequal healthcare may exacerbate resistance accumulation risks by driving acquired resistance through inadequate treatment as well as facilitating strain transmission with escalating drug resistance. …”

Spatial temporal trends and inequality in agricultural eco-efficiency under carbon constraints in China by Shuaibang Fan, Hongyu Lin, Na Luo, Herbert Sima, Yanping Liu

“…Abstract Eco-efficiency in cultivated land use is crucial for ensuring food security and promoting sustainable agriculture amidst the challenges posed by urbanization and climate change. Distinct from much of the existing literature, this paper adopts a super-efficiency EBM model that integrates both radial and non-radial perspectives to estimate the eco-efficiency of cultivated land use and identify sources of inefficiency under carbon emission constraints, focusing on 180 prefecture-level cities in China’s major grain-producing regions. …”
