Authors: Feng Wei , Ji Wei , Wang Yong , Gong Qinghai , Li Sixuan , Liu Yang , Lou Ge , Liu Shiwei , Li Hui
Published: October 2021

Background: We aimed to analyse the impact of elevated systolic blood pressure (SBP) levels on mortality and life expectancy among ≥25 yr adults in the municipality of Ningbo, China.
Methods: The death cause data were collected from the Internet-based Comprehensive Chronic Disease Surveillance System in Zhejiang Province in 2015, and SBP level data were obtained from the Ningbo Adult Chronic Disease Surveillance survey. According to the comparative risk assessment theory, the population attributable fraction (PAF) of elevated SBP levels by gender and urban-rural regions has been calculated. The deaths and life expectancy loss due to elevated SBP levels were estimated.
Results: In 2015, the average SBP level among ≥25 yr adults in Ningbo was 129.01 ± 17.73 mmHg, which was higher in men (131.67 ± 16.89 mmHg) than in women (126.24 ± 18.15 mmHg) and was higher among adults in rural regions (130.55 ± 18.75 mmHg) than among adults in urban regions (127.15 ± 16.19 mmHg). A total of 6181 deaths were attributed to elevated SBP levels among adults in Ningbo. The PAF of deaths caused by elevated SBP levels among adults was 16.14%, which was higher in women (18.73%) than in men (14.31%). The overall loss of life expectancy caused by elevated SBP levels among adults was 1.76 yr, which was higher in women (1.99 yr) than in men (1.53 yr) and was higher in rural regions (1.91 yr) than in urban regions (1.49 yr).
Conclusion: Elevated SBP levels had a serious impact on the death and life expectancy loss of residents in Ningbo.

A través de la narración se recuerda lo fundamental, se acuerda una hermenéutica de continuidad con la tradición; la narración se instala como una posibilidad de buscar nuevamente aquellos conceptos perdidos, aquella verdad olvidada; la narración es, en nuestros días, la vía para reconfigurar las estructuras de sentido que han sido duramente fragmentadas. Debemos recuperar la salud de la narración y, para ello, debemos superar la educación oportunista que plaga nuestro sistema de formación. Sin narración no hay comprensión del mundo ni apropiación de su sentido, solo hay uso e instrumentalización en orden a la utilidad. Nuestra educación, espejo de la crisis, privilegia la técnica, las metodologías y despoja de importancia lo universal.
Motives for Playing Video Games in the Context of Time. Results of Empirical Research
Authors: Mazurkiewicz Bartosz , Stefańska Magdalena
Published: October 2021

Video games are one of the most popular leisure activities. The multitude of games and ways of playing (individually, in a team, online, offline, etc.) allows players to meet their various needs. Thus, from the point of view of game developers, it becomes important to recognise these needs and adapt the product to the expectations of players. Taking the dynamic development of the video game market into account, it seems significant to recognise the players’ motives for spending their time on playing. Therefore, the aim of the article is to identify the players’ motives in terms of the type of need being met and to find an answer to the question whether there is a relationship between the time spent on games and the motives for playing (does the fact that we play longer change the type of need being satisfied?). The text refers to the results of research conducted in April 2020 on a sample of 2,527 players in Poland. The subjects of the study were people who actively played video games – every day or several times a week.

Published: October 2021

A quality preschool education plays a key role in achieving its objectives. To benefit from this effect of preschool education in a positive way, countries should investigate education systems and the educational methods and practices of other countries so as to understand the problems of education and the factors affecting it. This brings about the need to examine the indicators in regard to processes and structural elements in preschool education institutions. This paper focuses on examining the quality of preschool education classes in Turkey and in the United States comparatively. Descriptive research method was used in the research. Data were collected with ECERS-R in each three classes selected with convenience sampling from three kindergartens in Turkey and three kindergartens in the US. Total score achieved in this instrument and individual scores for seven subscales were examined. In line with the data obtained in this study, the total score of the three classes in kindergartens in the US was found to be higher than those in Turkey. As for the subscales, the classes of the kindergartens in Turkey were found to have higher scores of Language-Reasoning and Program Structure which are two subscales of the instrument. The findings were discussed in the light of the related literature.
İslam İnşâ Hukukunun Mardin Kent Mekânına Yansıması (11.-19. yy)
Authors: DİNÇ Fasih
Published: October 2021

Her toplumun bir kent modeli olduğu gibi İslam hukukuyla düzenlenmiş Müslüman toplumunun da kendi dünya görüşü ve bunun ön gördüğü ilişki biçimine göre bir kent modeli bulunmaktadır. Meskenin mahremiyeti ve komşuluk haklarının gözetilmesine ilişkin Peygamber’e atfedilen hadisler bu modelin şekillenmesine kaynaklık eden inşaya yönelik normların oluşmasını sağlamıştır. İslam hukukçularının meskenin dokunulmazlığı ve komşuya zararın önlenmesine yönelik hadisleri yorumlamalarıyla fıkıh kitaplarında inşaya ilişkin özel bölümler ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu bölümler, daha sonradan inşaya yönelik özel metinlerin oluşmasına kaynaklık etmiştir. Duvarların işlevleri ve hukuki yapılarının esas alındığı bu metinler, İslam coğrafyasının farklı yerlerinde fıkhü’l-bunyan/inşa hukuku temasıyla İslam hukukunun özel bir dalı olarak “amele” yani uygulamaya dönüşmüştür.
İslam coğrafyası kentlerine yönelik mekân çözümlemelerinde topoğrafya ve geleneğe daha çok vurguda bulunulmasına rağmen kendi normlarına sahip ve sorumlu olan İslam inşa hukuku göz ardı edilmiştir. Bu makalede Mardin’in kentsel kimliğine esas teşkil eden kalenin güney yamaçlarına kurulu alanın mekân üretiminde İslam inşa hukukunun etkisi ve yansımaları ele alınmaktadır. Bu çerçevede kale eteğine kurulu yerleşimin Mervanilerle başlayan ilk oluşumundan Artuklular Dönemi’nde kazandığı kentsel kimliğine ve oradan da Osmanlı egemenliğinin sonlarına kadar uzanan süreçte kentsel mekânın yeniden üretimi, düzenlenmesi ve sürdürülmesinde İslam inşâ hukukunun rolü gerek konuya dair literatür gerekse de Mardin Şer’iyye Sicillerine başvurularak irdelenmektedir.

Plant breeding for host plant resistance to pathogens brings together different disciplinary domains, especially genetics and plant pathology. The strategies underpinning plant breeding have therefore, logically, been influenced by a number of paradigms that have dominated the field of disease management. This chapter provides a brief overview of these paradigms, where the authors link the implications for plant breeding. In doing so, the authors try to follow an approximate (1) linear and (2) chronological order. Yet the authors are aware that, depending on the considered crop and region, (1) there might have been occasional jumps and step-backs leading to non-linear paths, and (2) the chronology of events may have much varied.

Published: October 2021

Rust fungi (order: Pucciniales) constitute the largest group of plant parasitic fungi and include many species of agricultural importance. This includes the three wheat rust fungi (Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici and Puccinia triticina) that have posed a threat to crop production throughout history. This chapter provides an overview of the wheat rust pathogen lifecycle that has been critical to the design of effective disease management strategies and discusses recent integration of basic biological knowledge and genomic-led tools within an epidemiological framework. Furthermore, we include a case study on the “field pathogenomics” technique, illustrating the value of genomic-based tools in disease surveillance activities. Bringing together advances in understanding basic pathogen biology, developments in modelling for disease forecasting and identification, alongside genomic-led advances in surveillance and resistance gene cloning, holds great promise for curtailing the threat of these notorious pathogens.

Ramularia leaf spot in barley
Authors:   Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC), UK, Havis Neil
Published: October 2021

Ramularia leaf spot is an emerging pathogen across barley growing regions of the world. It's rise from minor to major disease has been rapid over the last twenty years. The causal pathogen, Ramularia collo-cygni is poorly understood but it has been shown to have a complex life cycle and the ability to exist on many hosts in an endophytic state. The rate of development of fungicide resistance in the fungus is also extremely fast and many of the major single site fungicides are no longer effective in many countries. With multisite fungicides having their approval or reconsidered and no consistent varietal resistance available, control of the disease is increasing challenging. This chapter reviews the latest research into Ramularia biology and control and highlights the areas where recent advances have been made.

Krew i brud. Uwagi na temat estetyki oraz poetyki opisów śmierci w cyklu o wiedźminie Andrzeja Sapkowskiego
Authors: Płoszaj Joanna
Published: October 2021

Andrzej Sapkowski’s The Witcher series is the first Polish fantasy series that has gained so much popularity. When Sapkowski published his first story — The Witcher — in 1986, fantasy literature wasn’t well-known in Poland. In fact Polish readers, who were interested in fantasy, would mainly know John R.R. Tolkien’s novels like The Hobbit, Or Thete and Back Again, The Lord of the Rings or Silmarillion, all belonging to mythopoeic fantasy. Sapkowski’s story was vastly different from them, because the Polish author referred to sword and sorcery literature, which at that time was little-known in Poland. He created an interesting protagonist and a dark, vicious world, full of violence and graphic descriptions of death.
It appears that one of the main factors having an influence on the huge popularity of the series, may be the attempt to shock the reader by using a unique construction of the presented world, which contains a lot of graphic violent imagery. This article presents those methods of description of death and violence in The Witcher series to present why they are so interesting to the readers and what makes them stand out from the rest of similar descriptions in Polish fantasy literature.
The analysis is divided into several parts. The first part presents the influence of Sapkowski’s debut story on Polish fantasy literature. The second part contains the analysis of the dynamics of descriptions of death. The third and the fourth focus on showing the individualisation of death in The Witcher series and on detail exposure. The next part presents the narrative treatments used by Sapkowski to increase the impact of the literary images of death, for example changes of a narrative perspective. The last part of the article presents naturalistic elements of the descriptions and explains what functions they perform in the text.
Intertekstualność. Wersja pop
Authors: Kraska Mariusz
Published: October 2021

The concept of intertextuality used in the field of literary theory for the first time by Julia Kristeva seems to be (nowadays) a well-recognised category, though understood in different ways. Numerous interpretations of contemporary cultural phenomena testify to its attractiveness. However, the author of the article argues that in relation to popular literature and culture, a more theoretical approach to the place and status of this category is lacking. He argues that in this context intertextuality should be understood simultaneously as a strategy for producing texts and a specific model of reading. In this sense, it is an indication of formation based on the pleasure principle of a community of cultural representations, experiences and interpretations. However, this heterogeneous universe demonstrates that popular culture is agonist by nature, where the issue of emotional participation and recognition plays a key function.

The study deals with the possible inspirations from the external environment being the part of works by Karol Horák which undergo a creative transformation and produce a new aesthetic quality on the level of text, as well as the on the level of new staging forms or genesis of a completely new autochthonic theatre form (authorʼs theatre, postmodern theatre, medial theatre, happenings, performances, site-specific, etc.) There was a continuous pulsation among Slovak national theatre culture, or rather metonymically understood Prešov´s regional student theatre, and American (Living Theatre of J. Becka and J. Malinova, Schumannʼs Bread and Puppet, etc.), Polish (Kantorʼs Cricot 2, Grotowskiʼs Theatre Laboratory, Raczakʼs Theatre of Eighth Day, Mądzikʼs Plastic scene, Słupczynskiʼs Theatre Studio of Těšín, the Theatre Academy of Movement, Cracowian KTO, etc.) and Czech provenance (Theatre Orpheus Prague, Theatre X Brno, Theatre under Drain Pipe Ostrava, Quite Small Theatre Litvinov, Theatre on the Periphery, Prague, Quidam Brno, etc.) They have the form of a rational as well as a spontaneous reaction to the external stimulus which often acquired a form with surprisingly authentic aesthetic value. This value usually represented the latent affinity with the original stimulus and it often created an authentic theatre artefact with respect to the recipient having the peculiar status within the national context (e.g. Džura [1968], Démon [1967], Fragmenty [1974], Živý nábytok [1975], Tip-top biotop [1976], Materstvo [2011], Človek etudový alebo Konšpirácia alebo Od skúšky k predstaveniu [2013] etc.) This was the way how one wing of Slovak theatre tried to balance falling short of the European or world context.
„Guilty pleasure” Doroty Masłowskiej i Krzysztofa Vargi — o grach komunikacyjnych (z) popkulturą
Authors: Szalewska Katarzyna
Published: October 2021

The article is an analysis of two collections of feuilleton — Jak przejąć kontrolę nad światem, nie wychodząc z domu by Dorota Masłowska and Polska mistrzem Polski by Krzysztof Varga. The key to the analyses presented in the article is the phenomenon of guilty pleasure and shameful pleasure, which is the element that most closely connects the cited authors — choosing the subject of the feuilleton with full awareness of the implications of this cultural choice — and their readers drawn into the game between ‘guilt’ and ‘innocence’, ‘snobbery’ and ‘honesty’. This game is based on oscillating between maintaining a distance (and thus a sense of superiority) towards the subject of description and the subject of reading, and the pleasure of participation. Text strategies related to the guilty pleasure category, involving games with the reader, irony and intertextuality, also remain common to both creators.
Radon problems for hyperboloids
Authors: Molchanov Vladimir F.
Published: October 2021

We oﬀer a variant of Radon transforms for a pair X and Y of hyperboloids in R^3 deﬁned by [x,x] = 1 and [y,y] = -1, y_1 ≥ 1, respectively, here [x,y] = -x_1 y_1+x_2 y_2+x_3 y_3. For a kernel of these transforms we take δ([x,y]), δ(t) being the Dirac delta function. We obtain two Radon transforms D(X) →C^∞ (Y) and D(Y) →C^∞ (X). We describe kernels and images of these transforms. For that we decompose a sesqui-linear form with the kernel δ([x,y]) into inner products of Fourier components.
On the existence of a solution for a periodic boundary value problem for semilinear fractional-order differential inclusions in Banach spaces
Authors: Kamenskii Mikhail I. , Obukhovskii Valeri V. , Petrosyan Garik G.
Published: October 2021

In this paper, we study a periodic boundary value problem for a class of semilinear differential inclusions of fractional order in a Banach space for which the multivalued nonlinearity satisfies the regularity condition expressed in terms of measures of noncompactness. To prove the existence of solutions to the problem, we first construct the corresponding Green function. Then we introduce into consideration a multivalued resolving operator in the space of continuous functions and reduce the posed problem to the existence of fixed points of the resolving multioperator. To prove the existence of a fixed point, a generalized theorem of B.N. Sadovskii type for a condensing multivalued map is used.
Superpositional measurability of a multivalued function under generalized Caratheodory conditions
Authors: Serova Irina D.
Published: October 2021

For a multivalued mapping F:[a; b] × R^m → comp(R^m), the problem of superpositional measurability and superpositional selectivity is considered. As it is known, for superpositional measurability it is sufficient that the mapping F satisfies the Caratheodory conditions, for superpositional selectivity it is sufficient that F(•,x) has a measurable section and F(t; •) is upper semicontinuous. In this paper, we propose generalizations of these conditions based on the replacement, in the definitions of continuity and semicontinuity, of the limit of the sequence of coordinates of points in the images of multivalued mappings to a one-sided limit. It is shown that under such weakened conditions the multivalued mapping F possesses the required properties of superpositional measurability / superpositional selectivity. Illustrative examples are given, as well as examples of the significance of the proposed conditions. For single-valued mappings, the proposed conditions coincide with the generalized Caratheodory conditions proposed by I.V. Shragin (see [Bulletin of the Tambov University. Series: natural and technical sciences, 2014, 19:2, 476–478]).

El orden público procesal y el derecho de defensa en el exequátur del laudo arbitral
Authors: Noriega Linares Carmen María
Published: October 2021

La situación de ausencia del demandado en un procedimiento puede deberse por múltiples causas y también producir varias consecuencias. En el auto del TSJ de Madrid la ausencia se produce en el procedimiento de exequátur, por lo que las consecuencias que de ello se derivan serán diferentes de las que se habrían producido de haber estado ausente durante el procedimiento ante el tribunal extranjero.

La excepción del orden público internacional en su vertiente procesal en conjunción con el derecho de defensa juega un papel esencial para otorgar o denegar el exequátur, pues el poder defenderse en juicio es un principio fundamental que está protegido, tanto a nivel nacional como internacional. Sin embargo, no toda limitación de este derecho es una violación automática del orden público internacional.

La normativa reciente en materia de protección de datos así como los pronunciamientos del Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea en la cuestión y del Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos sobre el derecho a la vida privada, refuerzan la idea de la existencia de un orden público europeo distinto del orden público interno e internacional de cada Estado miembro. En este sentido, se ha venido conformando una estrategia comunitaria y un orden público europeo en torno a la concepción de la vida íntima y familiar y, en particular, al propio concepto de privacidad, cuyo alcance y significación difiere de la conceptualización que, sobre estos elementos, se ha venido realizando por la doctrina y jurisprudencia doméstica de los Estados miembros.

Goals of Regional Integration: a Modern Understanding
Authors: Butorina O.
Published: October 2021

To date, an extensive scholarly literature on regional integration has paid little attention to the question of its goals. However, it is fundamental for deeper understanding the nature of the phenomena and for the decision-making process at the national, regional and international levels. The objective of this article is to reveal declared and de facto pursued goals of regional integration, and to arrange them into a coherent system. To accomplish this task this paper first provides an overview of official goals stated in the founding agreements of various regional groups, formed by developed and developing countries in Europe, Asia and Americas. Then the question of goals is explored through the lenses of the key theories of regional economic integration and their practical application. Later a similar exercise is carried out in the context of political integration theories. Finally, based on the comprehensive analysis of official declarations, major theories of regional integration and practical developments in various regions and policy fields this paper categorizes main goals of regional integration into four groups compiled along two axes: internal and external, positive and negative. They form a matrix, which endows researchers with new optics. Further exploration of different types of integration goals, especially negatively oriented ones, has a potential to expand the research program of integration studies. They may also shed light on the debate over why regional blocks of developing countries stall at the level of free trade zones or why the creation of the European monetary union did not help the EU to move to the true political union.
Digital transformation in the regions of Russia: estimates and reality
Authors: Abramova M. A.
Published: October 2021

The article presents the problem of a comprehensive analysis of the socio-cultural prerequisites that determine the successful or unsuccessful implementation of the program of digitalization of the regions of Russia. A detailed examination of the tools for assessing the level of digitalization on the example of the methods for calculating the Skolkovo “Digital Russia” index and the regional digitalization index by I. V. Groshev and A. A. Krasnoslobodtsev showed their low informative value for understanding the factors leading to the formation of digital inequality in regions. The actuality of the problem is due not only to the need for an adequate assessment of the tools offered as convenient for comparing regions, but also by the following facts. On the one hand, the tasks of digitalization of education are of paramount importance in the framework of the federal development program. On the other hand, their implementation depends both on the local state of educational institutions and on solving a wider range of issues: staff training, providing employment opportunities for graduates, forming the need for highly qualified personnel in the region, etc. The novelty of the work is that the author consider the problem of studying the digital inequality of the regions of Russia with an emphasis on the issue of digitalization of education in the context of the existing regional socio-cultural prerequisites that determine the successful implementation of programs or prevent it. The application of institutional and functional approaches is of particular research interest, these approaches allow us to study the existing socio-cultural prerequisites in the regions as factors of stratification of Russian society that strengthen or weaken social inequality in the context of the development of a digital society. The author concludes that the solution of the problem of a comprehensive assessment of the socio-cultural prerequisites of the regional level of digitalization requires a detailed multi-factor analysis on a specific problem and direction of digitalization. The comparison of such data requires separate consideration of the indicators of socio-economic, demographic, and institutional development of the regions.
The Effects of Vaccination in Case of Influenza on the Elderly in Hong Kong in Reducing Flu Infection
Authors: Sakib S M Nazmuz
Published: October 2021

The reason for this dissertation is to establish the effects of vaccination on the elderly (>65 years old) in Hong Kong in reducing flu infection. Influenza vaccine uptake in the elderly (˃65 years old) in Hong Kong significantly increased in 2003 after the SARS epidemic. The exact impacts of influenza vaccine among the elderly in Hong Kong are a subject of contention. The effectiveness of the influenza vaccine comes from observed studies which may be prejudiced since it is difficult to identify and justify the evidence. A review of various literatures has shown that influenza causes serious illness and death particularly highly vulnerable groups such as adults aged 65 years and above. Therefore, more efforts should be initiated to reduce mortality caused by influenza among the elderly. According to the WHO (2005), vaccination is among the most effective approach for preventing death associated with influenza to vulnerable groups such as the elderly.
Numerical Simulation on Double-nozzle Spray Evaporation of Desulfurization Wastewater

Published: October 2021

To achieve the near zero emission of wastewater in the flue gas desulfurization (FGD) system in coal-fired power plant and better utilize the exhaust heat from flue gas, a feasible technology of spraying FGD wastewater in the flue duct for evaporation is discussed in the present study. A full-scale influencing factor investigation on the wastewater droplet evaporation performance is established under the Eulerian-Lagrangian model numerically. The dominant factors, including the characters of wastewater droplets, flue gas and the spray nozzles were analyzed under different conditions, respectively. Considering the multiple factors and conditions in the process, a Least-Square support vector machine (LSSVM) model is introduced to predict the evaporation rate based on the numerical results. Conclusions are made that the flue gas temperature and droplet diameter are of great importance in the evaporation process. The spray direction of droplet parallel with the flue gas flow direction is profitable for the dispersion of droplet, resulting the maximal evaporation rate. A double-nozzle arrangement optimized with relatively small flow rate is recommended. The LSSVM model can accurately predict the evaporation rate using the numerical results with different conditions.
Medieval Forest Dynamics in the Iberian Pyrenees: A Comparison Between Low- and High-mountain Areas
Authors: Rull Valentí , Vegas-Vilarrúbia Teresa
Published: October 2021

This paper compares the Medieval (ca. 400–1500 CE) dynamics of forests from low-mountain (Montcortès; ca. 1000 m a.s.l.) and high-mountain (Sant Maurici; 1900 m a.s.l.) areas of the Iberian Pyrenees, both of which experienced similar climatic forcing but different anthropogenic pressures. The main aim is to identify forest changes over time and associate them with the corresponding climatic and anthropogenic drivers (or synergies among them) to test how different forests at different elevations respond to external forcings. This could be useful to evaluate the hypothesis of general Pyrenean deforestation during the Middle Ages leading to present-day landscapes and to improve the background for forest conservation. The study uses palynological analysis of lake sediments, historical documents and paleoecological reconstructions based on pollen-independent proxies. The two sites studied showed different forest trajectories. The Montcortès area was subjected to intense human pressure during regional deforestation up to a maximum of ca. 1000 CE. Further forest recovery took place until the end of the Middle Ages due to a change in forest management, including the abandonment of slash-and-burn practices. Climatic shifts indirectly influenced forest trends by regulating human migrations and the resulting shifts in the type and intensity of forest exploitation. The highland Sant Maurici forests exhibited a remarkably long-standing constancy and an exceptional resilience to climatic shifts, which were unable to affect forest extension and composition, and to local human pressure, from which they rapidly recovered. The Montcortès and Sant Maurici records did not follow the rule of an irreversible forest clearing during the Middle Ages leading to present-day landscapes. The present Montcortès landscape was shaped after a Medieval forest recovery, a new Modern-Age deforestation and a further forest recovery during the last centuries. The Sant Maurici forests remained apparently untouched since the Bronze Age and were never cleared during the Middle Ages. The relevance of these findings for forest conservation is briefly addressed, and the need for the development of more high-resolution studies on Pyrenean forest dynamics is highlighted.
Metaknowledge Enhanced Open Domain Question Answering with Wiki Documents

The commonly-used large-scale knowledge bases have been facing challenges in open domain question answering tasks which are caused by the loose knowledge association and weak structural logic of triplet-based knowledge. To find a way out of this dilemma, this work proposes a novel metaknowledge enhanced approach for open domain question answering. We design an automatic approach to extract metaknowledge and build metaknowledge network from Wiki documents. For the purpose of representing the directional weighted graph with hierarchical and semantic features, we present an original graph encoder GE4MK to model the metaknowledge network. Then a metaknowledge enhanced graph reasoning model MEGr-Net is proposed for question answering, which aggregates both relational and neighboring interactions comparing with R-GCN and GAT. Experiments have proved the improvement of metaknowledge over main-stream triplet-based knowledge. We have found that the graph reasoning models and pre-trained language models also have influences on the metaknowledge enhanced question answering approaches.
Positron Emission Tomography in Animal Models of Alzheimer’s Disease Amyloidosis
Authors: Ni Ruiqing
Published: October 2021

Animal models of Alzheimer’s disease amyloidosis that recapitulate cerebral amyloid-beta pathology have been widely used in preclinical research, and have greatly enabled the mechanistic understanding of Alzheimer’s disease and the development of therapeutics. Comprehensive deep phenotyping of the pathophysiological and biochemical features in these animal models are essential. Recent advances in positron emission tomography have allowed the non-invasive visualization of the alterations in the brain of animal models as well as in patients with Alzheimer’s disease, These tools have facilitated our understanding of disease mechanisms, and provided longitudinal monitoring of treatment effect in animal models of Alzheimer’s disease amyloidosis. In this review, we focus on recent positron emission tomography studies of cerebral amyloid-beta accumulation, hypoglucose metabolism, synaptic and neurotransmitter receptor deficits (cholinergic and glutamatergic system), blood-brain barrier impairment and neuroinflammation (microgliosis and astrocytosis) in animal models of Alzheimer’s disease amyloidosis. We further propose the emerging targets and tracers for reflecting the pathophysiological changes, and discuss outstanding challenges in disease animal models and future outlook in on-chip characterization of imaging biomarkers towards clinical translation.
