Background: Ischemic stroke has the characteristics of high morbidity, mortality, and recurrence rate. This study aimed to describe and assess the burden of ischemic stroke in Asia based on the global burden of disease (GBD) 2019 data and provide a crucial scientific foundation for the prevention and control of this life-threatening disease.
Method: This study used the GBD 2019 data to assess the burden of ischemic stroke.
The effect of long term exposure to low concentrations of environmental pollutants on hepatic disorders is a major public health concern worldwide. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a class of persistent organic pollutants. In recent years, an increasing number of studies have focused on the deleterious effects of low concentrations of PAHs in the initiation or exacerbation of the progression of chronic liver disease.

Moreover, nutrients and flavor substances in the same or various species of wild edible fungi differ greatly with the influence on different components from habitats and geographic areas. So, 5 common wild edible fungi were collected from different areas in Yunnan Province, and several findings were made from this research.

The matric effect of MWCNs is optimized and compared with ordinary cleanup materials. The results show that the performance of MWCNs is fine and effectively reduce matrix interference.

The samples were first hydrolyzed using a dipotassium hydrogen phosphate solution, and then extracted using acetonitrile. Afterward, the extraction solution was dehydrated and salted out with sodium chloride and condensed to nearly dry using a rotating evaporator.

In this study, wild edible fungus was used as the research object, and the QuEChERS method was improved, including optimization of solvent extraction and purification conditions and optimization of the chromatographic behavior of nicotine under different mobile phase conditions for ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC). Combined with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry, a high-efficiency, rapid, and sensitive method for the determination of nicotine in wild edible fungi was established.

The tropical fruit samples were twice extracted with acetonitrile containing 1% (v/v) acetic acid, and purified by 200 mg of primary secondary amine (PSA), 100 mg of C18, 300 mg of MgSO and 500 mg of disodium hydrogen citrate. The analyte was separated on a CAPCELL CORE PC hydrophilic column, detected in the negative ion multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode, and quantified by external standard method.
