Two types of ARGF, denoted by Type A and Type B with different manufacturing technologies and fiber lengths, are used in the test. Tests of compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, and flexural performance were performed on ARGF-CAC with four different contents for the two types of ARGF. It is found that the cubic compressive strength is slightly reduced when the fiber volume fraction exceeds 0.5%, but almost keeps invariable if the fiber content further increases. However, the tensile strength, residual strength retention and flexural toughness are improved as more ARGFs are added into CAC, and even higher with Type B ARGF addition. The optimized volume fraction is 1.5% for both the two types of ARGF based on the evaluation of the workability and mechanical performance. Moreover, central pull-out test was performed to study the bond properties of ARGF-CAC with BFRP bars. It is found that both the maximum average bond stress and residual frictional stress are generally reduced as the bond length is longer. The addition of Type B ARGFs can significantly improve the bond strength; however, the Type A ARGFs seem to have marginal effect.Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 regulatory subunit-associated protein 1-like 1 (CDKAL1) is one of the strongest diabetes loci identified to date; evidence suggests that it plays an important role in insulin secretion. Dietary factors that affect insulin demand might enhance the risk of diabetes associated with CDKAL1 variants. Our aim was to examine the interactions between dietary protein and fat intake and CDKAL1 genetic variants in relation to the risk of diabetes in Korean adults. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were selected with a genome-wid
