[Relationship of population quality and nitrogen fertilizer utilization characteristics of direct seeding rice under water-nitrogen interaction].

Understanding population quality and nitrogen utilization characteristics of direct seeding rice under water-nitrogen interaction could provide theoretical and practical basis for high yield and ample production of direct seeding rice. Hybrid rice F You 498 was used as the material. Three irrigation methods were set in this study: flooding irrigation (W), dry-wet alternate irrigation (W) and drying irrigation (W), with different ratio of base fertilizer: tiller fertilizer: panicle fertilizer at 5:3:2 (N), 3:3:4 (N), 3:1:6 (N), respectively.

Endothelial progenitor cells attenuate the lung ischemia/reperfusion injury following lung transplantation via the endothelial nitric oxide synthase pathway.

Objective: Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) can improve endothelial integrity. This study aimed to examine the effects and the mechanism of EPCs on lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (LIRI).

Methods: Wistar rats were randomized into the sham or the left lung transplantation group.

Desflurane Attenuates Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury in Rats with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.

Ventilator-induced lung injury aggravates the existing lung injury. This study investigated the effect of desflurane on VILI in a rat model of acute respiratory distress syndrome. Forty-eight rats were randomized into a sham (S) group, control (C) group, lipopolysaccharide/ventilation (LV) group, lipopolysaccharide/ventilation/desflurane (LVD) group, or lipopolysaccharide/low ventilation with and without desflurane (LLV and LLVD) groups.
