Carbide slag (CS) is a kind of solid waste generated by the hydrolysis of calcium carbide for acetylene production. Its major component is Ca(OH), which shows great potential in CO mineralization to produce CaCO. However, the types of impurities in CS and their mechanisms for inducing the morphological evolution of CaCO are still unclear.

Methods: All trauma patients admitted via the emergency department at a trauma center from November 1, 2020, to April 30, 2022, were identified. The hospitalization burden, including the number of hospitalizations, deaths and in-hospital mortality, length of stay (LOS), and medical costs, was calculated.
The basic leucine zipper (bZIP) superfamily is a crucial group of xenobiotics in insects. However, little is known about the function of CAAT enhancer binding proteins (CEBP) and cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) in Nilaparvata lugens. In the present study, NlCEBP and NlCREB were cloned and identified.

Background: Emergency medical services (EMSs) are a critical component of health systems, often serving as the first point of contact for patients. Understanding EMS supply and demand is necessary to meet growing demand and improve service quality. Nevertheless, it remains unclear whether the EMS supply matches the demand after the 2016 healthcare reform in China.

Objective: To analyze the tendency of incidence and mortality of mechanical injuries among Chinese residents from 1990 through 2019 and to estimate the age-period-cohort effect.
Methods: Based on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 database, the incidence and mortality data of mechanical injuries among Chinese residents from 1990 to 2019 were extracted. The trends of age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized death rate (ASDR) of mechanical injuries among Chinese residents by gender was analyzed using the joinpoint regression model, and the annual percent change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC) were calculated.
To observe whether downhill running can lead to DNA damage in skeletal muscle cells and changes in mitochondrial membrane permeability and to explore whether the DNA damage caused by downhill running can lead to changes in mitochondrial membrane permeability by regulating the components of the endoplasmic reticulum mitochondrial coupling structure (MAM). A total of 48 male adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a control group (C, n = 8) and a motor group (E, n = 40). Rats in Group E were further divided into 0 h (E0), 12 h (E12), 24 h (E24), 48 h (E48) and 72 h (E72) after prescribed exercise, with 8 rats in each group.
