Heart Rate Variability Analysis Reveals a Non-monotonic Relationship between Humanin Concentration and Cardiac Autonomic Regulation by Feng, Samuel

“…Significant differences included various frequency domain and nonlinear HRV parameters, particularly between first and fourth HN quintiles with p values < 0.001 for recurrence plot analysis (RPA), detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) a1 and Poincaré plot ratio SD1/SD2. The results revealed non-monotonic relationships between measures of HRV and HN concentration. …”

Spatio-temporal changes in water-related ecosystem services provision and trade-offs with food production by Shiliang, Yang

“…The results showed that: 1) food production increased from 0.497×108tons to 0.798×108tons despite area of cultivated land decreasing from 23.61×104km2 to 23.40×104km2 during the study period (2000–2015). 2) Water yield and soil retention both showed a downward trend, while nitrogen and phosphorus exports showed an increasing trend, in 2000–2015.3) Food production showed a trade-off relationship with soil retention and water yield, but a synergistic relationship with nitrogen and phosphorus export. …”
