Article Synopsis
  • Denitrification in large tropical rivers plays a crucial role in nitrogen retention, but accurate measurements for seasonal and geomorphological comparisons are challenging.
  • Researchers tested a hypothesis linking potential denitrification rates (PDR) to soil and vegetation characteristics in various geomorphic units (GUs) along a section of the Padma River in Bangladesh.
  • They found significant relationships between PDR, vegetation cover, and soil moisture, using remote sensing data to model PDR across different seasons, concluding that certain GUs, particularly vegetation islands and bars, are key areas for denitrification.

Background: The gut microbiota plays an important role in primates, which may be associated with their habitat. In Malaysia, pig-tailed macaques (Macaca nemestrina) live in different habitat environments and have traditionally been used for coconut plucking for more than a century. There is currently no information regarding the gut microbiota of this macaque in Malaysia.

Article Synopsis
  • Patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) often suffer diaphragm dysfunction due to deep sedation and mechanical ventilation.
  • The study investigated the effects of temporary transvenous diaphragm neurostimulation (TTDN) combined with mechanical ventilation on diaphragm injury and cytokine levels in pigs with induced ARDS.
  • Results showed that TTDN significantly reduced abnormal diaphragm tissue and altered cytokine patterns compared to mechanical ventilation alone, suggesting its potential as a protective strategy in ARDS management.
