The novel plant hormone strigolactones (SL) are involved significantly in plant growth and development. Its key members , , can modulate SL signal reception and response negatively and can regulate plant branching remarkably. There are relatively scarce studies of cotton SMXL gene family, and this study was carried out to clarify the role of in cotton fiber development.

Background: Pneumonia is one of the most common complications after lung resection. However, there are currently no reports of postoperative pneumonia in patients with bronchiectasis.

Objectives: Our study aims to construct a new nomogram to predict the risk of postoperative pneumonia in patients with localized bronchiectasis.

As one of the key enzymes in the metabolic pathway of phenylpropane, shikimate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT) is mainly involved in the biosynthesis of the plant secondary cell wall, which is closely related to cotton fiber quality. In this study, whole-genome identification and bioinformatics analysis of the HCT gene family were performed in G. barbadense.

Background: Lung cancer patients undergoing surgery are at increased risk for Venous thromboembolism (VTE). We monitored changes in perioperative coagulation status through Thrombo-elastography (TEG), and monitored the anticoagulant effect of low molecular weight heparin through TEG for the first time.

Methods: From July 2019 to January 2020, 207 patients receiving curative surgery were retrospectively screened.

Objectives: To evaluate the safety and feasibility of removing drainage tubes at larger size of air leak in patients with prolonged air leak after pulmonary surgery.

Methods: Ninety-five patients who underwent pulmonary surgery with prolonged air leak in our centre were enrolled in this randomized controlled, single-centre, non-inferiority study. The drainage tube was clamped with a stable size of air leak observed over the last 6 h, which was quantified by gas flow rate using the digital drainage system.

Article Synopsis
  • - Duplication events in plant evolution allow genes to develop new functions, particularly in the context of flavonoids that play a role in plant defense and development.
  • - The study focuses on four paralogous genes in cotton, examining their expressions and roles in resistance to Fusarium wilt, revealing a cooperative interaction among these genes to enhance disease resistance.
  • - Findings suggest a mechanism where endogenous salicylic acid and methyl jasmonate regulate flavonoid metabolism, providing insights into plant gene evolution and potential applications in molecular breeding.

Background: The Controlled Nutritional Status (CONUT) score is a valid scoring system for assessing nutritional status and has been shown to correlate with clinical outcomes in many surgical procedures; however, no studies have reported a correlation between postoperative complications of bronchiectasis and the preoperative CONUT score. This study aimed to evaluate the value of the CONUT score in predicting postoperative complications in patients with bronchiectasis.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients with localized bronchiectasis who underwent lung resection at our hospital between April 2012 and November 2021.

  • PIN proteins are crucial for auxin transport and regulate plant growth, yet their roles in cotton species have been underexplored.
  • Researchers identified 138 PIN genes across four cotton species, grouping them into seven subgroups, and found that some showed varying expression during fiber development tied to auxin levels.
  • Functional tests using gene silencing revealed that silencing specific genes improved cotton plant growth while reducing auxin in leaves and stems, indicating their significant role in fiber development and growth regulation.

Background: Recently, the new World Health Organization (WHO) tumor classification removed adenocarcinoma (AIS) from the diagnosis of lung cancer. However, it remains unclear whether the "malignancy" item should be assessed when the modified Caprini Risk Assessment Model (RAM) is used to assess venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk in AIS. The purpose of our study is to assess differences between AIS and stage IA adenocarcinoma (AD) from a VTE perspective.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to determine the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with bronchiectasis undergoing lung resection and to assess the effectiveness of the modified Caprini risk assessment model (RAM) in predicting VTE risk.
  • A total of 117 patients were enrolled, revealing an 8.5% incidence of postoperative VTE, with significant differences in preoperative hospitalization days and Caprini scores between VTE and non-VTE patients.
  • Higher Caprini scores correlated with an increased risk of VTE, with the analysis showing strong predictive capability of the modified RAM (C-statistics of 0.893) when adjusted for preoperative factors.

Gossypium barbadense possesses a superior fiber quality because of its fiber length and strength. An in-depth analysis of the underlying genetic mechanism could aid in filling the gap in research regarding fiber strength and could provide helpful information for Gossypium barbadense breeding. Three quantitative trait loci related to fiber strength were identified from a Gossypium barbadense recombinant inbred line (PimaS-7 × 5917) for further analysis.

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common postoperative complication in patients with lung cancer that seriously affects prognosis and quality of life. At present, the detection rate of patients with early-stage lung cancer is increasing, but there are few studies on the risk factors for postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with stage IA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study aimed to establish a nomogram for predicting the probability of postoperative VTE risk in patients with stage IA NSCLC.

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common postoperative complication of lung cancer, but the incidence and risk stratification of postoperative VTE in stage IA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients remains unclear, therefore we conducted a single-center prospective study.

Methods: A total of 314 consecutive patients hospitalized for lung cancer surgery and diagnosed with stage IA NSCLC from January 2017 to July 2021 were included. The patients were divided into the VTE group and the non-VTE group according to whether VTE occurred after the operation.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study focuses on sea-island cotton (Gossypium barbadense), known for its strong fiber properties and resistance, aiming to uncover the mechanisms behind its fiber growth and development by investigating TCP transcription factors.
  • - Researchers identified 75 GbTCP genes, with 68 lacking introns, and categorized them into 11 groups based on phylogenetic analyses, while mapping 66 genes across 21 chromosomes.
  • - The research revealed distinct expression patterns of GbTCPs during different fiber developmental stages, providing insights for future studies on TCP functions and their role in cotton fiber development.

In plant cells, vacuolar H-ATPases (V-ATPases) are responsible for deacidification of the cytosol and energisation of the secondary transport processes across the tonoplast. A number of V-ATPase subunit genes have been demonstrated to be involved in the regulation of the plant response to water deficit. However, there are no reports on the role of V-ATPase subunit A (VHA-A) in dehydration tolerance of cotton.

Unlabelled: Stainless steel plant dust is a hazardous by-product of the stainless steelmaking industry. It contains large amounts of Fe, Cr, and Ni, and can be potentially recycled as a raw material of inorganic black pigment in the ceramic industry to reduce environmental contamination and produce value-added products. In this paper, ceramic tiles prepared with black pigment through recycling of stainless steel plant dust were characterized in terms of physical properties, such as bulk density, water absorption, apparent porosity, and volume shrinkage ratio, as well as the long-term leaching behavior of heavy metals (Cr, Ni, Pb, Cd, and Zn).
