Transcriptomic analysis of the response mechanisms of black rockfish (Sebastes schlegelii) under noise stress from offshore wind farms.

During the operational phase of offshore wind farms, the generation of low-frequency underwater noise has received widespread attention due to its potential adverse impact on fish health. This study conducted a field survey of underwater noise at offshore wind farms located in Shandong province, China. Subsequently, a small-scale experiment was conducted to study the stress on black rockfish (Sebastes schlegelii).

The Clinical Value of the Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio, the C-Reactive Protein-to-Albumin Ratio, the Systemic Inflammatory Index, and the Systemic Inflammatory Response Index in Patients with the Anti-Synthetase Syndrome.

Objective: There are no studies examining the role of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), the C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR), the systemic inflammatory index (SII), and the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) in anti-synthetase syndrome (ASS). We aim to compare NLR, CAR, SII, and SIRI in ASS and dermatomyositis/polymyositis (DM/PM), as well as to examine potential correlations between NLR, CAR, SII, and SIRI and clinical features and laboratory parameters in ASS.

Methods: Retrospective collection of data from 111 patients with ASS and 175 patients with DM/PM.

Photometric-Stereo-Based Defect Detection System for Metal Parts.

Automated inspection technology based on computer vision is now widely used in the manufacturing industry with high speed and accuracy. However, metal parts always appear in high gloss or shadow on the surface, resulting in the overexposure of the captured images. It is necessary to adjust the light direction and view to keep defects out of overexposure and shadow areas.

Pediatric Spinal Cord Injury without Radiographic Abnormality: The Beijing Experience.

Study Design: Retrospective study.

Objective: To describe the epidemiology and clinical outcomes of pediatric patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) without radiographic abnormality (SCIWORA) in mainland China for the first time.

Summary Of Background Data: SCIWORA is a syndrome that often occurs in children mainly due to the unique biomechanics of the pediatric spine.

Early diagnosis and successful treatment of cytomegalovirus peritonitis in children with primary nephrotic syndrome: case series and literature review.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a major pathogen in immunocompromised population and CMV infections in immunocompromised patients cause substantial morbidity and mortality. The common clinical manifestations of CMV infection are pneumonia, hepatitis, colitis and so on, while CMV peritonitis without gut perforation is rare. Reviewing the literature, CMV peritonitis in patients with nephrotic syndrome (NS) had not been reported.

Clinical and pathological features of microscopic polyangiitis in 20 children.

Objective: To explore the clinical and pathological features of microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) in children.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed of patients with pediatric MPA in our hospital over 10 years.

Results: Data for 20 patients were collected; 16 patients had primary MPA (4 boys, 12 girls), with a median age of 8.

Novel compound mutations of SMARCAL1 associated with severe Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia in a Chinese patient.

Background: Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD) is a rare autosomal recessive pleiotropic disease caused by mutations in the SMARCAL1 gene. To date there have been no data from the Chinese population. Here, we report the first SIOD case in the Chinese population.
