Classifying mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease by constructing a 14-gene diagnostic model.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are two neurodegenerative diseases. Most patients with MCI will develop AD. Early detection of AD and MCI is a crucial issue in terms of secondary prevention.

Use of wastewater and compost extracts as nutrient sources for growing nursery and turfgrass species.

Nutrient salts present in liquid by-products following waste treatment are lost resources if not effectively recycled, and can cause environmental problems if improperly disposed. This research compared the growth response and mineral nutrient status of two nursery and two turfgrass species, hydroponically supplied with nutritive by-product extracts derived from anaerobically digested municipal solid waste (MSW) and aerobically composted organic wastes from the mushroom and MSW industries. Forsythia (Forsythia x intermedia 'Lynwood') and weigela (Weigela florida 'Red Prince'), and creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris Huds.
