The Influence of Body Fat Percentage on Body Type Cognitive Bias Among Young Chinese Hospital Staff Members: A Cross-Sectional Study.

This study expanded the existing literature on obesity and distortion of body image by examining subjective and objective body type among young medical workers, specifically investigating whether fat percentage independently influences body type cognitive bias. We recruited 264 participants (41.29% male, mean age 26.

Anaphylaxis Induced by Multiple Sensitization With Hymenoptera Venom:Report of One Case.

Hymenoptera venom-sensitized patients may experience systemic reactions,and severe patients may even present life-threatening symptoms such as collapse and syncope.Here we report a case of anaphylaxis triggered by multiple sensitization with Hymenoptera venom.Clinical diagnosis and allergen testing showed that the patient developed anaphylaxis to wasp and/or fire ant venom.

Total IgE levels are associated with mortality risk partially mediated by vitamin status: A nationally representative population-based study.

Background And Aims: Elevated total IgE levels are traditionally associated with allergic conditions; however, their potential role as biomarker for mortality risk beyond allergic diseases has not been extensively explored. Recent studies have suggested that IgE is associated with cardiovascular (CV) disease. We aimed to investigate the association between total IgE levels and the risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality, as well as to explore the potential mediating role of vitamin status in these associations.

Power-Sustainable and Portable Electrochemical Sensing Platforms for Complex Outdoor Environment Applications.

Portable sensor technologies are indispensable in personalized healthcare and environmental monitoring as they enable the continuous tracking of key analytes. Human sweat contains valuable physiological information, and previously developed noninvasive sweat-based sensors have effectively monitored single or multiple biomarkers. By successfully detecting biochemicals in sweat, portable sensors could also significantly broaden their application scope, encompassing non-biological fluids commonly encountered in daily life, such as mineral water.

Nanomorphogenesis of interlayered polyamide membranes for precise ion sieving in lithium extraction.

Nanofiltration (NF) offers a scalable and energy-efficient method for lithium extraction from salt lakes. However, the selective separation of lithium from magnesium, particularly in brines with high magnesium concentrations, remains a significant challenge due to the close similarity in their hydrated ionic radii. The limited Li/Mgselectivity of current NF membranes is primarily attributed to insufficient control over pore size and surface charge.
