Background: Increased smartphone use by children and adolescents places them at higher risk of overdependence. The problematic smartphone use of preteens is rapidly increasing. The preteen period is one of considerable developmental change and the influence of problematic smartphone use should be identified by reflecting on this change and considering its social psychological factors.

- The study explored microbial diversity in a manure storage tank versus an aeration tank during swine manure treatment using next-generation sequencing.
- Results showed that Proteobacteria were more common in the aeration tank, potentially linking them to denitrification and nitrous oxide emissions.
- In contrast, the phyla Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes were more prevalent in the manure storage tank, indicating that anaerobic bacteria may be inhibited in the presence of oxygen in the aeration tank.
Kidney injury molecule-1 is involved in the chemotactic migration of mesenchymal stem cells.

A better understanding of the organ specific factors that regulate the migration of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into the target organ is essential for optimization of strategies to improve the repair after injury. In the present study, we showed that the kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), a well-known kidney-specific biomarker, enhanced the in vitro migration capacity of MSCs as a potent kidney-specific chemo-attractant or an inducer. The in vitro roles were verified by migration assay using KIM1-PK1 cell lines, the mouse proximal tubular epithelial cells (mPTEs) and recombinant human KIM-1 proteins (rhKIM-1).
