“…Diabetes has emerged as a rapidly rising global health issue in the 21st century [ 1 , 2 ]. Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM), representing approximately 85 to 90% of the total population, has increased in prevalence from 4.5% in 1990 to 8.5% from 2016 to 2017 and is projected to rise further by 2030 [ 3 ].…”

Dianthus superbus L. has been extensively studied for its potential medicinal properties in traditional Chinese medicine and is often consumed as a tea by traditional folk. It has the potential to be exploited in the treatment of inflammation, immunological disorders, and diabetic nephropathy. Based on previous studies, this study continued the separation of another subfraction of Dianthus superbus and established reversed-phase/reversed-phase and reversed-phase/hydrophilic (RPLC) two-dimensional (2D) high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) modes, quickly separating two C-glycosylflavones, among which 2″-O-rhamnosyllutonarin was a new compound and isomer with 6‴-O-rhamnosyllutonarin. This is the first study to investigate the effects of 2″-O-rhamnosyllutonarin and 6‴-O-rhamnosyllutonarin on cellular glucose metabolism in vitro. First, molecular docking was used to examine the effects of 2″-O-rhamnosyllutonarin and 6″-O-rhamnosyllutonarin on AKT and AMPK; these two compounds exhibited relatively high activity. Following this, based on the HepG2 cell model of insulin resistance, it was proved that both of the 2″-O-rhamnosyllutonarin and 6‴-O-rhamnosyllutonarin demonstrated substantial efficacy in ameliorating insulin resistance and were found to be non-toxic. Simultaneously, it is expected that the methods developed in this study will provide a basis for future studies concerning the separation and pharmacological effects of C-glycosyl flavonoids.

“…For example, people who reside in an area with a high availability of ultra-processed food and an absence of fruit and vegetables are more likely to become overweight [4]. Neighborhoods characterized by a growing number or a high proportion of fast-food outlets may contribute to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) [5] and hypertension [6] in residents. Access to full-service restaurants was found to be significantly associated with a lower prevalence of diabetes [7].…”

“…Considerable studies have been conducted on RFE, and the researchers come from a variety of fields, mainly including public health, health geography, and urban planning. They concentrated on the RFE neighborhood disparities [8] [9], the associations between RFE and diet-related outcomes [4] [5] [6] [10], food environment assessment methods [11] [12] and secondary data validity [9] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17]. These practical studies primarily from developed countries such as Canada [6] [11] [13], the United States [5] [17] [18], the United Kingdom [19] [20], and Spain [21], whereas developing countries contributed relatively limited experience and knowledge of RFE.…”

There are significant disparities in dietary behaviors and food environments between countries with diverse cultural backgrounds, particularly in food culture.…”

The retail food environment (RFE) has a significant impact on people's dietary behavior and diet-related outcomes. Although RFE research has received a lot of attention, there are very few studies that shed light on the foodscape and assessment methodologies in the China context. Based on open data obtained from Dianping.com and AutoNavi map, we classified all food outlets into six types. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) techniques were employed to create two network buffer areas (1-km and 3-km) and calculate the absolute measures and relative measures (i.e., mRFEI and Rmix). We modified the calculation of relative measures by adding items and assigning weights. The mean mRFEI using the 1-km and 3-km buffer sizes across the communities were 10.45 and 20.12, respectively, while the mean mRmix of the two buffer sizes were 20.97 and 58.04, indicating that residents in Wuhan have better access to fresh and nutritious food within 3-km network buffers. Residents in urban areas are more likely to be exposed to an unhealthy food environment than those in rural areas. Residents in Xinzhou and Qiaokou districts are more likely to be subjected to unfavorable neighborhood RFE. The open data-driven methods for assessing RFE in Wuhan, China may guide community-level food policy interventions and promote active living by shifting built environments to increase residents' access to healthy food.
