RESUMO: A mineração humana contribui para aumentar a liberação de cromo (Cr) no ambiente. Para a fitorremediação de solo com alto teor de Cr, o girassol é a escolha certa porque o Cr em suas sementes pode ser removido durante a produção de óleo de semente de girassol. No entanto, o alto teor de Cr no solo inibirá o crescimento do girassol, então os agentes de remediação do solo comumente usados com o plantio de girassol são ácido etilenodiaminotetracético (EDTA) e ácido cítrico (AC). Este estudo conduziu uma meta-análise sobre os efeitos do EDTA e AC no desenvolvimento do girassol sob estresse de Cr. Ele fornecerá uma referência para o girassol para melhorar o solo contaminado com Cr ou uma referência para produzir safras em áreas cultivadas poluídas com Cr. Um total de 97 artigos foram encontrados, e sete estudos foram usados nesta meta-análise de janeiro de 1990 a janeiro de 2022. Os resultados mostraram que o tratamento com EDTA não teve efeito no peso das folhas, peso da parte aérea e peso da raiz. O tratamento com AC teve um efeito positivo no peso das folhas, peso da parte aérea e peso da raiz. EDTA e CA aumentaram a concentração de Cr na raiz, folha e broto. Este estudo recomenda a adição de qualquer agente quelante ou ativador, mas o conteúdo de metais tóxicos no solo deve primeiro ser medido cuidadosamente. Infelizmente, neste estudo, não obtivemos uma dose de referência, e pesquisas futuras devem se concentrar neste problema.

ABSTRACT: Human mining contributes to increasing the release of chromium (Cr) into the environment. For the phytoremediation of soil with high Cr content, sunflower is the right choice because the Cr in its seeds can be removed during the production of sunflower seed oil. However, the high content of Cr in the soil will inhibit the growth of sunflower, so the soil remediation agents commonly used with sunflower planting are ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) and citric acid (CA). This study conducted a meta-analysis on the effects of EDTA and CA on the development of sunflower under Cr stress. It will provide a reference for sunflower to improve Cr-contaminated soil or a reference to produce crops in Cr-polluted cultivated areas. A total of 97 articles were found, and 7 studies were used in this meta-analysis from January 1990 to January 2022. The results showed that EDTA treatment had no effect on the leaf weight, shoot weight and root weight. CA treatment had a positive effect on the leaf weight, shoot weight and root weight. EDTA and CA increased the Cr concentration in the root, leaf and shoot. This study recommends the addition of any chelating agent or activator, but the content of toxic metals in the soil must first be measured carefully. Unfortunately, in this study, we did not obtain a reference dose, and future research should focus on this problem.

The Reformation had a profound impact on hermeneutical practices by challenging ecclesiastical authority and emphasising interpretive freedom, addressing a crucial gap in historical theology. This study aimed to assess the influence of Martin Luther's principle of self-interpretation of the Bible and Matthias Flacius' organismic methodology, which builds on that principle, on the foundations of modern hermeneutics, particularly the methodological hermeneutics represented by Schleiermacher and Dilthey. Set within the context of the 16th-century Reformation, the study conducted a rigorous textual analysis of historical theological documents, revealing a significant paradigm shift towards more inclusive and rational interpretations of sacred texts. This shift, aligning with emerging humanistic values, marked a lasting transformation in the field of hermeneutics. CONTRIBUTION: The primary contribution of this study lies in its detailed exploration of the historical roots of modern hermeneutics, highlighting the Reformation's pivotal role in shaping contemporary interpretive methodologies. By elucidating the connections between theological reforms and hermeneutical practices, this research enriches the discourse on the development of hermeneutics and underscores the enduring relevance of Reformation-era innovations. These insights provide valuable perspectives on the interplay between historical and contemporary hermeneutical theories, closely aligning with the intersection of historical theology and interpretive methodologies, thus offering a significant contribution to the field.

ABSTRACT To address the issue of corrosive wear resulting from the addition of desulphurization wastewater into the wet slag removal system, this study investigated the corrosive wear behavior of chain steel (specifically 17NiCrMo6 steel) in desulphurization wastewater with varying chloride concentrations. Weight loss, micro-phase characterization, and electrochemical testing methods were employed for analysis. The findings indicate that as the chloride concentration increases, the weight loss rates for both pure corrosion and corrosive wear exhibit a pattern of initial increase, followed by a decrease, and then another increase. This trend can be attributed to the fact that as the chloride concentration rises, the corrosion products become denser, thereby increasing the difficulty of the corrosion reaction. system specifically NiCrMo 17NiCrMo concentrations microphase micro phase characterization analysis increases increase decrease rises denser reaction

Abstract Osmotic dehydration (OD) is a widely used technique for lowering the moisture content and water activity of biological products. During OD, food is immersed in an aqueous hypertonic solution of salt and/or sugar. Food and the surrounding osmotic solution have different osmotic pressures which allows for the transportation of solute from the osmotic solution into the food product. OD could be utilized as a fortification method by addition of solutes of interest to the osmotic solution. Adding vitamins, dietary fibers, and minerals (such as calcium, iron, and zinc) to the osmotic solution can be used to create food with specific health-promoting qualities. Fortification of fruit and vegetable goods would effectively minimize and prevent diseases linked to nutritional inadequacies due to the high consumption rate of these products. OD could be a simple, affordable, and effective way to fortify food for social, economic, and health benefits. This study compiles data from existing studies dating back approximately two decades, focusing on the possibility of adding or impregnating bioactive compounds into fruits and vegetables through OD as well as the effects of combining OD with vacuum, ultrasound, and pulse electric field techniques on the incorporation of these bioactive compounds into solid food matrices. A brief overview of current OD trends is also provided, highlighting the use of lower-calorie sugar replacements to improve process efficiency and raise overall product quality. This study emphasizes the need for more research into OD to fortify, improve functionality, and incorporate nutraceutical characteristics in the food industry.

Forkhead Box O1 (FOXO1) has been reported to play important roles in many tumors. However, FOXO1 has not been studied in pan-cancer. The purpose of this study was to reveal the roles of FOXO1 in pan-cancer (33 cancers in this study). Through multiple public platforms, a pan-cancer analysis of FOXO1 was conducted to obtained FOXO1 expression profiles in various tumors to explore the relationship between FOXO1 expression and prognosis of these tumors and to disclose the potential mechanism of FOXO1 in these tumors. FOXO1 was associated with the prognosis of multiple tumors, especially LGG (low grade glioma), OV (ovarian carcinoma), and KIRC (kidney renal clear cell carcinoma). FOXO1 might play the role of an oncogenic gene in LGG and OV, while playing the role of a cancer suppressor gene in KIRC. FOXO1 expression had a significant correlation with the infiltration of some immune cells in LGG, OV, and KIRC. By combining FOXO1 expression and immune cell infiltration, we found that FOXO1 might influence the overall survival of LGG through the infiltration of myeloid dendritic cells or CD4+ T cells. Functional enrichment analysis and gene set enrichment analysis showed that FOXO1 might play roles in tumors through immunoregulatory interactions between a lymphoid and a non-lymphoid cell, TGF-beta signaling pathway, and transcriptional misregulation in cancer. FOXO1 was associated with the prognosis of multiple tumors, especially LGG, OV, and KIRC. In these tumors, FOXO1 might play its role via the regulation of the immune microenvironment.

Abstract Background In contemporary society, with the accelerated pace of work and life, more and more people feel different degrees of stress. Long-term stress may not only lead to insomnia, but also to mental health problems (e.g., anxiety and depression), which has a significant impact on people's quality of life and mental health. Objective This study primarily investigates the mechanism through which stress affects sleep quality among college students. Methods We conducted research on 1653 Chinese college students using four scales with high reliability and validity: stress, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, social anxiety, and rumination. Results The study found: (1) Stress can significantly and positively predict sleep quality and rumination; (2) Rumination can positively predict social anxiety; (3) Social anxiety can positively predict sleep quality; (4) Stress can affect sleep quality through social anxiety and rumination separately, and stress can also affect sleep quality through the chained mediation of rumination and social anxiety. Conclusion This study reveals the relationship and mechanisms between stress and sleep quality. It not only deepens the research on the impact of stress on sleep quality but also provides theoretical support and new methods for mental health professionals to help clients improve their sleep quality. In practice, in addition to using some common psychological intervention methods to help individuals reduce stress, we should pay more attention to how to help clients reduce rumination and social anxiety, This is significant in improving the quality of an individual's sleep. society Longterm Long term insomnia e.g., eg e g (e.g. depression, depression , depression) peoples s 165 validity Index found 1 (1 2 (2 3 (3 4 (4 separately practice individual e.g. (e.g 16 ( e.g

Silicon catalysts have very low catalytic activity in polyester (PET). However, titanium catalysts have high catalytic activity in polyester. The simultaneous use of titanium and silicon catalysts is effective in reducing the activity of a single titanium catalytic base agent. In addition, the glycol salts of titanium and silicon (Ti-EG and Si-EG) prepared in the present invention for use in the polyester catalytic process can avoid the introduction of other groups of impurities during the polyester catalytic process, which would lead to premature capping of the polyester in the process of polycondensation and chain building and make it difficult to increase the molecular weight, and thus affect the quality of the polyester. It has been verified that the ratio of Ti:Si is 1:1 (mol), and total amount added to the catalyst is 0.15% of the raw material amount, and the polycondensation temperature was 260-280 °C for 60 min. Compared with the single Ti-EG catalyst, the b* value of the synthesized PET was significantly reduced, and the molecular weight and other indexes did not change too much. In addition, at the end of catalysis, the catalyst was uniformly dispersed in the reaction system, which could be used as a matting agent for PET. .

ABSTRACT Blastocystis are common digestive tract parasites in humans and animals, extensively parasitic in humans and other primates. They exhibit extensive genetic diversity; Currently, 17 subtypes (STs) and some populations called non mammalian and avian STs (NMASTs) have been proposed. To understand the infection status and genotype distribution of Blastocystis sp. in wild mouse, this study used PCR technology to study the fecal DNA samples of 111 Leopoldomys edwardsi and 117 Berylmys bowersi collected from Guangdong and Chongqing. Among 228 fecal samples, 4 samples were positive for Blastocystis sp., with a total infection rate of 1.8% (4/228). Four positive samples formed two subtypes of ST3 and ST4, all of which were zoonotic genotypes. This article aims to investigate the infection status and genotype distribution of wild mouse Blastocystis sp., which will help reduce the infection of this pathogen to animals and thereby reduce their risk of zoonotic transmission. primates diversity Currently 1 (STs NMASTs (NMASTs proposed sp 11 Chongqing 22 18 8 1.8 4/228. 4228 4/228 .

ABSTRACT In this study, a flexible capacitive pressure sensor was developed, featuring a dielectric layer composed of a polydimethylsilane (PDMS)/BaTiO3/SrTiO3 composite material. The electrode and dielectric layers were structured with a dual microstructure, combining diagonal and sandpaper-porous elements. Additionally, nano-barium titanate (BT) powder, known for its relatively high dielectric constant, was incorporated into PDMS, along with an appropriate amount of strontium titanate (STO), to enhance the sensor’s sensitivity. The developed sensor exhibited a remarkable sensitivity of 2.681 kPa–1, with response and release times of approximately 39 ms and 61 ms, respectively. It demonstrated a low detection threshold and withstood over 5000 compression cycles, showcasing excellent repeatability. The results underscored the sensor’s robust pressure-sensing performance, making it suitable for diverse applications, including human pulse monitoring, heartbeat tracking, robot arm sensing, object weight detection, and real-time healthcare monitoring. study PDMS/BaTiO3/SrTiO3 PDMSBaTiO3SrTiO3 PDMSBaTiOSrTiO PDMS /BaTiO3/SrTiO3 BaTiO3 SrTiO3 BaTiO SrTiO (PDMS)/BaTiO3/SrTiO material microstructure sandpaperporous sandpaper porous elements Additionally nanobarium nano barium BT (BT powder constant STO, STO , (STO) sensors s 2681 2 681 2.68 kPa1 kPa 1 kPa–1 3 6 respectively 500 cycles repeatability pressuresensing sensing performance applications monitoring tracking realtime real time PDMS/BaTiO3/SrTiO PDMSBaTiO PDMSBaTiO3SrTiO BaTiO3SrTiO3 BaTiOSrTiO /BaTiO3/SrTiO (STO 268 68 2.6 kPa– 50 BaTiO3SrTiO 26 2. 5

Abstract Objective This study aimed to explore the effects of Apatinib combined with Temozolomide (TMZ) on the levels of Soluble PD-1 (sPD-1) and Soluble Programmed Death-1 Ligand (sPD-L1) in patients with drug-resistant recurrent Glioblastoma (GB). Study design A total of 69 patients with recurrent GB from September 2020 to March 2022 were recruited and assigned to the control group (n = 34) and observation group (n = 35) according to different treatment options after tumor recurrence. The control group was treated with TMZ, and the observation group was treated with Apatinib combined with TMZ. Levels of sPD-1 and spd-l1, clinical efficacy, survival time and adverse reactions were observed and compared between the two groups. Results General data including gender, age, body mass index, and combined diseases indicated no statistical significance between groups (p > 0.05). Before the intervention, sPD-1 and sPD-L1 levels were not significantly different in the two groups (p > 0.05). After interventions, levels of PD-1 and sPD-L1 levels decreased significantly (p < 0.05). The objective remission rate and clinical benefit rate of the observation group were higher and overall survival and progression-free survival were longer than those of the control group (p < 0.05). No significant difference was observed in major adverse reactions among patients (p > 0.05). Conclusions Apatinib combined with TMZ is safe and effective in the treatment of recurrent GB. The combined application of the two can reduce the levels of sPD-1 and sPD-L1, which has important clinical application value.

Abstract The incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD) remains high, and many NAFLD patients suffer from severe ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Currently, no practical approach can be used to treat IRI. Puerarin plays a vital role in treating multiple diseases, such as NAFLD, stroke, diabetes, and high blood pressure. However, its role in the IRI of the fatty liver is still unclear. We aimed to explore whether puerarin could protect the fatty liver from IRI. C57BL/6J mice were fed with a high‐fat diet (HFD) followed by ischemia reperfusion injury. We showed that hepatic IRI was more severe in the fatty liver compared with the normal liver, and puerarin could significantly protect the fatty liver against IRI and alleviate oxidative stress. The PI3K-AKT signaling pathway was activated during IRI, while liver steatosis decreased the level of activation. Puerarin significantly protected the fatty liver from IRI by reactivating the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway. However, LY294002, a PI3K-AKT inhibitor, attenuated the protective effect of puerarin. In conclusion, puerarin could significantly protect the fatty liver against IRI by activating the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway. nonalcoholic non alcoholic (NAFLD ischemiareperfusion .

Abstract Gastric cancer (GC) often develops resistance to cisplatin treatment, but while latent transforming growth factor β-binding protein (LTBP2) is recognized as a potential regulator in GC, its specific role in cisplatin resistance is not fully understood. This study investigated LTBP2’s impact on cisplatin resistance in GC. LTBP2 expression was assessed in various GC cell lines, and its correlation with cisplatin sensitivity was determined through cell viability assays. Lentivirus-mediated LTBP2 silencing in HGC-27 cells demonstrated enhanced cisplatin sensitivity, reduced cell proliferation, and inhibition of the NF-κB2/Bcl-3/cyclin D1 pathway. Additionally, transient transfection overexpressed the NFκB2 gene in LTBP2-silenced HGC-27/DDPR cells, restoring cisplatin sensitivity and upregulating p52/Bcl-3/cyclin D1. In conclusion, silencing LTBP2 could effectively inhibit cell proliferation and mitigate cisplatin resistance via the NFKB noncanonical pathway NFKB2 p52/Bcl-3/cyclin D1. These findings propose LTBP2 as a potential therapeutic target for overcoming cisplatin resistance in GC patients.

BiOCl nanosheets modified with AuCu nanoparticles were successfully designed and fabricated for water reduction of CO2. The AuxCuy/BiOCl composites exhibited enhanced visible light absorption ability due to a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect. The AuxCuy/BiOCl composites could convert carbon dioxide to ethane (C2H6), while only CO was obtained over pure BiOCl nanosheets. In this study, the rate of C2H6 production (12.2 μmol h-1 g-1) and selectivity of C2H6 (75.7%) were obtained over the Au1Cu1/BiOCl photocatalyst under simulated sunlight illumination. The AuCu nanoparticles played the dual role of electron traps and hot electron donors, facilitating efficient separation and migration of the carriers.

A series of 4H-pyran derivatives were synthesized through a three-component condensation reaction in a pot using aromatic aldehyde, cyclohexanedione, and malononitrile in the dodecyl benzenesulfonic acid/H2O microemulsion system. This protocol is attractive because dodecyl benzenesulfonic acid microemulsion is superior for organic reaction due to its dual catalysis. On the one hand, dodecyl benzenesulfonic acid acts as a Brønsted acid to catalyze the reaction; on the other hand, it can form a microemulsion as surfactant to enlarge the boundary area and entrap water produced during esterification reaction. In addition, the reaction process is simple, with high liaison formation effciency, good yields, and environmentally harmless reaction conditions. The dodecyl benzenesulfonic acid/H2O microemulsion system was equally effective when used in consecutive reactions. 4Hpyran Hpyran 4H pyran H threecomponent three component aldehyde cyclohexanedione acidH2O acidHO H2O O catalysis hand addition simple effciency yields conditions reactions acidH HO

Abstract Objective: Aortic Dissection (AD) is one of the most fatal acute diseases in cardiovascular diseases, with rapid onset and progression and a high fatality rate. This study aims to investigate the clinical values of non-enhancement peripheral pulse-gating rapid magnetic resonance imaging in deterministic diagnosis of AD. Methods: Aorta magnetic resonance imaging was performed in 21 healthy volunteers at a 1.5t MR scanner sequences including cardiac-gated and peripheral pulse-gated True-FISP and HASTE were carried out separately. Acquisition Time (TA), Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), Contrast Noise Ratio (CNR), and entirety of vessel wall blood flow artifacts were measured and compared. A total of 56 AD cases were displayed by non-enhancement peripheral pulse-gating fast MR imaging, and the results were compared with pathological findings or CTA of the aorta. The dissection rupture, tear film, true and false lumen, thrombosis, hydropericardium, and the main branches of AD were evaluated respectively. Results: There were no significant differences in SNR, CNR, entirety of the vessel wall, and blood flow artifact between cardiac-gated and peripheral pulse-gated fast MR imaging. Non-enhancement pulse-gated fast scanning takes less TA time. By the pulse-gated non-enhancement fast MR imaging, the dissection rupture, tear film, true and false cavity, thrombosis, hydropericardium, and the main branches of aortic dissection were shown clearly. Multi-planar and multi-angle scans helped to show the extent of entrapment rupture, whereas partial complex tears or bi-directional tears were slightly less well visualized. Conclusion: Non-enhancement peripheral pulse-gated rapid magnetic resonance imaging can be used for deterministic diagnosis of AD.
