The Population Study of Chinese Elderly in Chicago (PINE) is a population-based study of community-dwelling Chinese older adults aged 60 and over in Chicago (age ranges from 60 to 105 years). Briefly, the PINE study aims to collect community-level data of Chinese older adults by examining a wide array of health and aging issues in the Chinese aging population. Participants were invited to the study through extensive community-based recruitment strategies toward achieving cohort participation.
To prepare for a population-based study aimed to assess health and well-being of the Chinese aging population, we implemented the community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach to collaborate with the Chinese community in Greater Chicago area. CBPR has been proven as an effective approach in increasing public health research relevancy (Horowitz, Robinson, & Seifer, 2009 (link); Leung, Yen, & Minkler, 2004 (link); N. B. Wallerstein, 2006 (link)). The formation and conduct of the community-academic partnership allows us to develop appropriate research methodology in accordance with Chinese cultural context, in which the Community Advisory Board (CAB) played a pivotal role in providing useful perspectives and strategies for aging research conduct and partnership sustainability (Dong, Chang, Wong, & Simon, 2011a ; Dong, Chang, Wong, & Simon, 2011b ; Dong, Li, Chen, Chang, & Simon, 2013 ).
With respect to data collection, trained bilingual research assistants gathered health data through face-to-face interviews in the homes of older adults. Participants were surveyed in their preferred language and dialects including Mandarin, Cantonese, Toishanese, Teochew dialect, or English. The majority of respondents were interviewed in Chinese, including Cantonese, Toishanese, Mandarin, Teochew dialects. The study had less than 1% of the respondents who were interviewed in English. A total of 3,159 older adults were enrolled from 2011 to 2013, with a response rate of 91.9%.

pBID-UASC was constructed by three-fragment ligation. To this end, 255-bp 5xUAS sequence was PCR amplified from pUAST [2] (link) with Pry1 and SacI-UAS reverse primers and cloned into pCR8GW-TOPO (Invitrogen) to create pCR8GW-5xUAS. Meanwhile, a 344-bp DSCP (Drosophila Synthetic Core Promoter) sequence was PCR amplified from pBPGUw (gift from Gerald Rubin, Janelia Farm) with Gateway attR2 and EcoRI-DSCP reverse primers, and a 151-bp fragment released from the 344-bp DSCP fragment with SacI/EcoRI was cloned into SacI/EcoRI sites of pBluescript SK(+), resulting in pBS-DSCP. A 132-bp HindIII/SacI 5xUAS fragment of pCR8GW-5xUAS and a 159-bp SacI/EcoRI DSCP fragment of pBS-DSCP were inserted in HindIII/EcoRI sites of pBID-UAS, giving rise to pBID-UASC.

The study included 234 women, 50–75 years of age, with a body-mass index (BMI, kg/m2) greater than 30 and a body weight less than 159.1 kg. Eligible participants were free of uncontrolled hypertension and diabetes and had no active (within 12 months) manifestations of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, renal, or hepatic disease. The use of medications known to affect body weight and a weight loss of 4.5 kg or greater in the preceding six months also were exclusion criteria. Psychosocial contraindications included substance abuse and clinically significant depression.
Study announcements were mailed to households in six rural17 counties in northern Florida. All six counties have been designated in whole or in part as “Health Professional Shortage Areas.”18 Five hundred and fifty-nine women who responded to the announcements were invited to an orientation/screening session iwherein the study was described and informed consent obtained. Height, weight, and blood pressure were measured by a registered nurse, who took a medical history, drew a fasting sample of blood, and obtained a 12-lead electrocardiogram. The blood sample was analyzed for metabolic and lipid profiles. Findings from the screening visit were reviewed by the study physician who determined medical eligibility; 261 women were excluded from participation (Figure 1).
The remaining 298 women participated in a standard six-month lifestyle modification program for weight loss. The program was delivered in groups of 10–14 participants at local CES offices. Group leaders were CES Family and Consumer Sciences agents or individuals with bachelors or masters degrees in nutrition, exercise science, or psychology (hired by the University of Florida). Family and Consumer Sciences agents, (formerly known as “home economists”) have a minimum of a bachelors degree with education and training in food science, dietetics, and nutrition. The group leaders were provided with extensive training in lifestyle weight-loss treatment that included session-by-session supervisory contacts (1 hour each) and eight bimonthly workshops (6 hours each).
The contents of the lifestyle program were modeled after the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP)19 (link) and included a low-calorie eating pattern (1200 kcal/day), increased physical activity (30 min/day of walking) and training in behavior modification strategies such as goal setting and daily self-monitoring of food intake.11 (link),20 Modifications to the DPP approach included group rather than individual counseling21 (link) and home-based rather than center-based exercise.22 (link) We also included additions that our pilot testing suggested were issues of special concern to women from rural areas, such as cooking demonstrations to illustrate low-calorie preparation of “Southern” dishes, strategies for coping with a lack of family support for weight loss, and techniques for healthful eating while away from home.
A total of 234 women (78.5%) completed the initial lifestyle intervention; these participants comprised the sample for the randomized trial. The study, approved by the Institutional Review Board of the University of Florida, was conducted from June 2003 to May 2007.

All respondents answered a questionnaire consisting of standard demographic questions followed by items from the complete DPS, GPS, AIP, and IPS scales. The DPS (Mann, 1982, unpublished; Mann et al., 1997 (link)) contains five items that primarily focuses on delay in planning and decision making, e.g., “I waste a lot of time on trivial matters before getting to the final decisions,” though has one item related to implementation, “Even after I make a decision I delay acting upon it” (DPS 2). Internal reliability for the DPS is relatively high, α = 0.70–0.83 (Mariani and Ferrari, 2012 (link)). The GPS (Lay, 1986 (link)) encompasses 20 items focusing primarily on implemental delay, e.g., “Even jobs that require little else except sitting down and doing them, I find that they seldom get done for days” (GPS 7). Two versions of the GPS exist, a general version and a version adapted for students specifically. The general version was used here. It has a good internal consistency, α = 0.86 (Lay, 1986 (link)). The AIP (McCown et al., 1989 (link)) contains a mix of items addressing decisional and implemental delay, as well as lateness (see Table 2). Test-retest reliability of this scale is relatively high, r = 0.71, as is internal consistency, α = 0.86 (Ferrari et al., 2005 ). The IPS (Steel, 2010 (link)) is a nine-item scale focusing on implemental delay, e.g., “I delay tasks beyond what is reasonable” (IPS 7). The IPS demonstrates good internal reliability, α = 0.91 (Steel, 2010 (link)). Of note, the PPS was not included as a separate scale, as this scale is composed of 12 items from the DPS, GPS, and AIP. Steel (2010) (link) reported internal consistency of the PPS at α = 0.92. For discriminant validity purposes, respondents answered the five-item Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS; Diener et al., 1985 (link)). All items were answered on a common 1–5 scale, 1 = “Very seldom or not true of me,” 5 = “Very often true, or true with me.” All answered a total of 159 items. First, respondents answered the demographic questions, then the procrastination scales of the present study and finally the SWLS. Items were presented in fixed order, one scale at a time.

Based on the study by Dargaville et al. we estimated that NIV failure would occur in 22% of infants at risk of RDS (9 (link)). A sample size of 159 subjects provided an estimate of incidence with a 95% confidence interval (95%CI) with ±7% precision, accounting for 15% invalid data.
Descriptive analysis was performed by calculating frequencies and percentages for categorical variables. The central tendency (mean and median) and dispersion [standard deviation and interquartile range (IQR)] were calculated for quantitative variables. The independent sample t-test was used to compare continuous variables, and the χ2 test or Fisher's exact test was used to compare categorical variables. All analyses are presented for the entire cohort and gestational age.
Multiple logistic regression was used to identify potential predictors of NIV success or failure by calculating odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). The variables selected for the multivariate analysis were those corresponding to p-values less than 0.1 in the univariate analysis. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05; analyses were performed using the available data without imputation of the missing data. Statistical analyses were performed using the SAS software (version 9.3, SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, United States).

This is a single center retrospective cohort analysis on a German tertiary care center. We searched for all women with a GDM (index pregnancy), who had a subsequent pregnancy with a viable newborn. The record screening was performed digitally by searching for the International Classification Disease (ICD-10) code O24.4 (Fig. 1). Criterions of exclusion were multiple pregnancies, diagnosis of a diabetes mellitus type 1 or 2, still birth or an abortion. Between January 2014 and September 2020, a total of 159 women were included. A group of 318 women with two pregnancies during the study period but without GDM served as healthy control group. The women of the control group were matched by the maternal age at the first and the subsequent pregnancy.

Flowchart of patient’s selection with criterions of exclusion

A positive family history was defined as any diabetes mellitus diagnosis of parents or siblings. Women’s weight before the first pregnancy was subtracted from that before the second pregnancy to compute the interpregnancy weight gain (IWG). Interpregnancy interval means the time between the delivery of the index pregnancy and the beginning of the subsequent pregnancy. Neonatal birth weight centiles were calculated in accordance to the German growth charts and depended on neonatal sex, birth weight and age at birth [10 (link)]. Neonatal macrosomia was considered a birth weight ≥ 90th centile. Preterm birth was defined as delivery before 37 weeks of gestational age. Depending on pregravid body mass index (BMI) the women were classified to underweight (BMI ≤ 18.5 kg/m2), normal weight (BMI 18.5–24.9 kg/m2), overweight (BMI 25.0–29.0 kg/m2) and obese (BMI ≥ 30.0 kg/m2). For these groups we identified excessive weight gain during pregnancy based on the IOM definition [11 ].

The cryo-EM structure of spinach PSII-LHCII (PDB ID: 3JCU)11 (link) was selected as the initial model for simulating the interactions between LHCII proteins and the PSII core. According to the previous studies,31–33 (link) the PSII-LHCII complex was embedded in a pre-equilibrated lipid bilayer consisting of single-component 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) to mimics native thylakoid membranes. The system was then neutralized by the addition of counter ions (202 sodium ions) and solvated in a double-shell water box containing 277 727 TIP3P water molecules. Our simulation box (240.5 Å × 350.0 Å × 155.5 Å) contains a total of 1 159 431 atoms, and the solvated complexes with lipid bilayers are shown in Fig. S1.Histidine residues in the system were singly protonated on Nε, except those coordinating to non-heme FE, HEM or CLA via Nε (and were thus protonated on Nδ). In addition, the two disulfide bonds contained in each monomer (C112–C135 of PsbO and C17–C26 of PsbTn) were explicitly considered. The AMBER ff14SB force field parameter set34 (link) was selected for standard amino acids residues. For the ten cofactors (PHO, BCR, PL9, LHG, SQD, LMG, DGD, LUT, XAT, NEX) (full names are shown in Table S1), the generalized Amber force field (GAFF) parameter set was adopted.35 (link) The parameters of CLA and CHL were taken from those developed by Ceccarelli et al. for bacteriochlorophyll a.36 (link) The parameters of HEM were taken from the AMBER parameter database.37 The parameters of POPC were taken from previous work.38 (link) For the non-heme Fe clusters, we obtained the parameters using the MCPB.py program.39 (link) The atomic charges of the cofactors were determined by fitting the electrostatic potential around these molecules by using the RESP model.40 The atomic charges of the OEX complexes were assigned according to the redox states of its atoms in the dark-adapted (S1) state as follows: Mn1–Mn2, +3; Mn3–Mn4, +4; O1–O5, −2, Ca, +2. According to Ogata et al.,41 (link) the equilibrium bond lengths, bond angles, and torsion angles were set as the average value of OEX in the two monomers in the cryo-EM structure. The force constants for bond lengths, bond angles, and torsion angles were appropriately set at 1500 kcal mol−1 Å−2, 500 kcal mol−1 Å−2, and 100 kcal mol−1 Å−2, respectively, to maintain the configuration of OEX during the simulations.

Data were collected using an online self-reported questionnaire by the PC practices. The questionnaire was developed at Ghent University in multiple phases, including a pilot study among 159 PC practices in Flanders (Belgium). More details are described in the protocol [23 (link)]. The questionnaire consists of 53 items divided into the following main topics: infection prevention, patient flow for COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 care, dealing with new knowledge and protocols, communication with patients, collaboration, the well-being of the respondent, and characteristics of the respondent and the practice. The questionnaire was translated into the Albanian language following a standard procedure. Since the study comprised numerous countries, there were many types of PC structures and management. As a result, to best portray the reality and factual situation in each country in the research instrument, the researchers exchanged clarifying questions prior to the start of data collection and after it was completed. The Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) platform was used to host the questionnaire and securely store the participants’ answers [24 (link)].
