[Clinical Application of Two Bleeding Scoring Scales in Children with Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia].

Objective: To explore the clinical application value of the Bleeding Scoring Scales (2019 Pediatric ITP Scale) in the diagnosis and treatment of children with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP).

Methods: A total of 422 children with ITP were evaluated with the 2019 Pediatric ITP Scale and the 2013 ITP-BAT and their clinical data were analyzed. The correlation between the two bleeding scoring scales and disease stage, platelet count was analysed, the evaluation time, consistency of the two bleeding scoring scales was compared, and the correlation of the two methods.

Quality problems in clinical practice guidelines and guideline appraisal studies: Should we tolerate or eradicate?

Background: Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE) II instrument have been widely used by scholars around the world to assess the methodological quality of clinical practice guidelines (CPGs). We sought to identify items or domains that are commonly scored low in the assessment, and to systematically review the issues that emerged when evaluators used the AGREE II tool for guideline quality assessment.

Methods: A systematic search was conducted to identify articles published in medically relevant databases from 2022 to 2023 regarding the use of the AGREE II tool for the assessment of CPGs.

Rhizosphere microbial community construction during the latitudinal spread of the invader Chromolaena odorata.

The colonization of alien plants in new habitats is typically facilitated by microorganisms present in the soil environment. However, the diversity and structure of the archaeal, bacterial, and fungal communities in the latitudinal spread of alien plants remain unclear. In this study, the rhizosphere and bulk soil of Chromolaena odorata were collected from five latitudes in Pu' er city, Yunnan Province, followed by amplicon sequencing of the soil archaeal, bacterial, and fungal communities.

PANX1-mediated ATP release confers FAM3A's suppression effects on hepatic gluconeogenesis and lipogenesis.

Background: Extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an important signal molecule. In previous studies, intensive research had revealed the crucial roles of family with sequence similarity 3 member A (FAM3A) in controlling hepatic glucolipid metabolism, islet β cell function, adipocyte differentiation, blood pressure, and other biological and pathophysiological processes. Although mitochondrial protein FAM3A plays crucial roles in the regulation of glucolipid metabolism via stimulating ATP release to activate P2 receptor pathways, its mechanism in promoting ATP release in hepatocytes remains unrevealed.

The Identification and Gene Mapping of Spotted Leaf Mutant in Rice.

Our study investigates the genetic mechanisms underlying the spotted leaf phenotype in rice, focusing on the mutant. This mutant is characterized by persistent reddish-brown leaf spots from the seedling stage to maturity, leading to extensive leaf necrosis. Using map-based cloning, we localized the responsible locus to a 330 Kb region on chromosome 2.

Age-related changes in the mitochondrial, synthesis of steroids, and cellular homeostasis of the chicken ovary.

In poultry reproduction, the decline of ovarian function due to aging is related to dysfunction of mitochondria exacerbated by a reduction in antioxidant capacity, ultimately leading to follicle atresia and decreased egg production. However, the mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction in the chicken ovary in aging have remained to be understood. Hence, this study aims to investigate the effects of aging on mitochondrial function and cellular homeostasis.

AKI-Pro score for predicting progression to severe acute kidney injury or death in patients with early acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery.

Background: No reliable clinical tools exist to predict acute kidney injury (AKI) progression. We aim to explore a scoring system for predicting the composite outcome of progression to severe AKI or death within seven days among early AKI patients after cardiac surgery.

Methods: In this study, we used two independent cohorts, and patients who experienced mild/moderate AKI within 48 h after cardiac surgery were enrolled.

Skin mottling score assesses peripheral tissue hypoperfusion in critically ill patients following cardiac surgery.

Background: Skin mottling is a common manifestation of peripheral tissue hypoperfusion, and its severity can be described using the skin mottling score (SMS). This study aims to evaluate the value of the SMS in detecting peripheral tissue hypoperfusion in critically ill patients following cardiac surgery.

Methods: Critically ill patients following cardiac surgery with risk factors for tissue hypoperfusion were enrolled (n = 373).

Graded-Band-Gap Zinc-Tin Oxide Thin-Film Transistors with a Vertically Stacked Structure for Wavelength-Selective Photodetection.

Filter-free wavelength-selective photodetectors have garnered significant attention due to the growing demand for smart sensors, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Everything, and so forth. However, the challenges associated with large-scale preparation and compatibility with complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology limit their wide-ranging applications. In this work, we address the challenges by constructing vertically stacked graded-band-gap zinc-tin oxide (ZTO) thin-film transistors (TFTs) specifically designed for wavelength-selective photodetection.

Effect of early stepwise cardiopulmonary rehabilitation on function and quality of life in sepsis patients.

Background: Sepsis, as a non-limiting host infection disease, can be accompanied by serious complications such as organ failure, which seriously threatens patient quality of life.

Aim: To investigate the effect of early stepwise cardiopulmonary rehabilitation on cardiopulmonary function and quality of life in patients evacuated from mechanical ventilation with sepsis.

Methods: A total of 80 patients with sepsis who were hospitalized in our hospital from January 2021 to January 2022 were selected and divided into the observation group ( = 40) and the control group ( = 40) according to the random number table method.

Drp1 regulated PINK1-dependent mitophagy protected duck follicular granulosa cells from acute heat stress injury.

The mitochondrial quality control system is crucial in maintaining cellular homeostasis during environmental stress. Granulosa cells are the main cells secreting steroid hormones, and mitochondria are the key organelles for steroid hormone synthesis. The impact of the mitochondrial quality control system on granulosa cells' steroid hormone synthesis and survival under heat stress is still unclear.

Enhances Tolerance to Iron Excess Stress in and MsMYB Binds to Its Promoter.

Iron(Fe) is a trace metal element necessary for plant growth, but excess iron is harmful to plants. Natural resistance-associated macrophage proteins (NRAMPs) are important for divalent metal transport in plants. In this study, we isolated the (MN_547960) gene from alfalfa, the perennial legume forage.

The immunomodulation role of Th17 and Treg in renal transplantation.

Kidney transplantation (KT) is an ultimate treatment of end-stage chronic kidney disease, which can meet a lot of complications induced by immune system. With under-controlled immunosuppression, the patient will obtain a good prognosis. Otherwise, allograft disfunction will cause severe organ failure and even immune collapse.
