The Functional Capacity of the Upper Airway in Older Adults with Chronic Stroke by Esther Prados-Román, Mónica Zapata-Soria, Irene Cabrera-Martos, Geraldine Valenza-Peña, Andrés Calvache-Mateo, Javier Martín-Núñez, Marie Carmen Valenza

“…Patients with stroke also had significantly lower values for swallowing efficiency and safety compared to the control group (7.05 ± 8.44 vs. 2.23 ± 4.14, <i>p</i> = 0.021) and reported poorer quality of life related to swallowing difficulties (185.50 ± 23.66 vs. 200.32 ± 19.60, <i>p</i> = 0.029). (4) Conclusions: Older adults with chronic stroke exhibited significantly reduced cough strength, voice intensity, maximum phonation time, and swallowing function compared to controls.…”

The sand-controlling and reservoir-controlling characteristics and exploration potential of the steep slope zone in the Huanghua Depression, Bohai Bay Basin, eastern China by Haitao Liu, Yan Chen, Yan Chen, Jufeng Wang, Deqiang Sun, Zijun Tang, Chunming Zhang, Fengcheng Wu, Zhenglong Jiang

“…Through the division of different structural styles such as shovel-shaped, slope-flat type and fault-step type steep slope zones and the in-depth analysis of their sand control and reservoir control mechanisms, the decisive role of factors such as fault activities, paleogeomorphology and material source supply on the development of glutenite fan bodies and the reservoir-forming rules of oil and gas in the steep slope zone has been clarified, which provides strong geological theoretical support for further improving the exploration efficiency and reserve prediction of glutenite oil and gas reservoirs in the steep slope zone of the Bohai Bay Basin.…”

Analysis of Factors Affecting the Spatial Association Network of Food Security Level in China by Chuansong Zhao, Chunxia Li, Jianxu Liu, Haixia Lian, Woraphon Yamaka

“…Recently, the western region has shown accelerated improvements in food security, followed by the central area, with the eastern region maintaining steady growth. (2) A structurally robust spatial correlation network of food security has emerged, characterized by variations in the number of network relationships, fluctuations in network density, and a decline in network efficiency while still exhibiting pronounced small-world characteristics. (3) The network displays a clear core-periphery structure, with Shanghai, Beijing, and Jiangsu positioned centrally, playing pivotal intermediary roles, whereas remote provinces such as Gansu, Ningxia, and Liaoning occupy the periphery. (4) The four major regions demonstrate sparse internal connectivity yet robust inter-regional ties, resulting in pronounced spillover effects. (5) Various factors, including geographic distance, provincial proximity, disparities in economic development levels, variations in marketization, differences in agricultural human capital, and disparities in land productivity, significantly impact the establishment of spatial correlations in food security. …”
