Article Synopsis
  • Researchers studied 336 hospitalized children with community-acquired pneumonia to differentiate between viral infections and Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infections.
  • They used various analyses, including LASSO regression and logistic regression, to identify key factors for predicting the type of infection.
  • A predictive model was created incorporating factors like tumor necrosis factor-α, age, and procalcitonin, achieving a C-index of 0.878, indicating good accuracy in distinguishing between the two types of infections.

Objective: We aimed to investigate the clinical features of children with plastic bronchitis caused by pneumonia, and assess the risk factors for pleural effusion (PE) in plastic bronchitis.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on children with plastic bronchitis and hospitalized in Xiamen Children's Hospital from January 2017 to April 2023. Participants were categorized based on the presence of PE.

High solid anaerobic digestion (HSAD) achieves the benefits of high volumetric loading rates and lower reject water production, which, however, results in much more concentrated reject water with a remarkable increase in organics and nitrogen compared with that from conventional AD with low solid content. The high concentrations of ammonium (2000-3500 mg/L) and COD (3000-4000 mg/L) were reported to exert inhibition on anammox bacteria (AnAOB), posing challenges to the application of the partial nitritation/anammox (PN/A). To date, no cases of PN/A process start-up for sludge HSAD reject water were reported.

Lignin, as a natural polyphenol, displays anti-oxidant activity by trapping and binding free radicals through its free phenolic hydroxyl groups. However, the most accessible form, industrial lignins, generally has low phenolic hydroxyl content, which severely limits their application value and scenarios. Herein, we showed that potassium-glycerate deep eutectic solvent (PG-DES) treatment can be combined with laccase oxidation to afford prepared high antioxidant lignin nanoparticles (HA-LNPs) with notably improved anti-oxidant activities benefiting from both the enhanced phenolic hydroxyl content 170.

High-solid sludge anaerobic digestion leads to increased organic matters in digester supernatant, which promotes heterotrophic competition and reduces anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) retention. This research demonstrated effective anammox retention by hydrocycloning during a two-stage deammonification. Anammox retention was evaluated by dividing large (>0.

Background: The STK15 gene located on chromosome 20q13.2 encodes a centrosome-associated kinase critical for regulated chromosome segregation and cytokinesis. Recent studies have demonstrated STK15 to be significantly associated with many tumors, with aberrant expression obseved in many human malignancies.
