In the information age, new wave of technology revolution has profoundly changed our mode production and way life. Pseudo human settlements (PHS), consisting digits information, have become increasingly important in (HS) systems, a strong support for high-quality development global HS. Against this background, clarifying spatiotemporal heterogeneity driving mechanisms coupling coordination between PHS real (RHS) is great significance to HS providing reasonable explanation today’s man–land relationship. Therefore, we developed theoretical framework system describing PHS–RHS based on multi-source data such as internet socialization, public utility, remote sensing images, etc. Taking urban agglomeration middle reaches Yangtze River (UAMRYR), which key region consolidating China’s “two horizontal three vertical” urbanization strategy, case study area, comprehensively analyzed RHS its mechanism UAMRYR during period 2011–2021, by applying modified degree (CCD) other models. The results show are follows: (1) Temporal process—The CCD exhibited reverse L-shaped increasing trend. class varied significantly, with extremely uncoordinated severely classes present at beginning disappearing toward end period, while well coordinated highly were absent appeared period. (2) Spatial pattern—The an equilateral triangle-shaped, core–margin spatial pattern characteristic core polarization. Overall, distribution “high central region, low eastern western regions, balanced south–north direction”. (3) Dynamic evolution—The increased more rapidly north-eastern direction than south-western direction; north-eastward migration dispersion, variability decreased. (4) Driving mechanisms—The primary factors affecting significantly over time. living was dominant PHS, whereas RHS. had greater effect CCD. broadens research scope geography, establishes scientific foundation advancing construction UAMRYR, offers cities UAMRYR.

Aged micro(nano)plastics (MNPs) are normally the ultimate state of plastics in environment after aging. The changes physical and chemical characteristics aged MNPs significantly influence their environmental behavior by releasing additives, forming byproducts, adsorbing contaminants. However, a systematic review is lacking on effects ecological human health regarding increasing but scattered studies results. This Review first summarizes unique methods for quantifying aging degree. Then we focused potential impacts organisms, ecosystems, health, including "Trojan horse" under real conditions. Through combining meta-analysis analytic hierarchy process (AHP) model, demonstrated that, compared to virgin MNPs, would result biomass decrease oxidative stress increase organisms lead total N/P greenhouse gas emissions ecosystems while causing cell apoptosis, antioxidant system reaction, inflammation health. Within framework risk assessment, used quotient (RQ) physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBK) models as examples illustrate importance considering degree data acquisition, model building, formula evaluation. Given risks our urgent call more understand hazards real-world environments.

This review article aims to highlight the potential harm caused by microplastics (MPs) in different organs and systems underscore need for further investigation into their action mechanisms. MPs, such as polystyrene, polypropylene, polyethylene, significantly impact human health, causing inflammation respiratory gastrointestinal systems, compromising immune function, increasing risk of cardiovascular diseases neurotoxicity. These effects are largely attributed role MPs disrupting hormonal regulation, which can lead reproductive disorders an elevated cancer. microscopic particles (less than 5 mm size) now ubiquitous air, water, food. However, much existing research on focuses mechanisms association with health disease, limited emphasis direct humans or long-term consequences. To effectively address plastic toxicity, it is crucial understand policy implications relevance disease development. Recent has highlighted more stringent regulatory oversight these materials better mitigate health.
