Identification of necroptosis-related genes for predicting prognosis and exploring immune infiltration landscape in colon adenocarcinoma.

Background: Necroptosis is a recently discovered form of cell death that plays an important role in the occurrence and development of colon adenocarcinoma (COAD). Our study aimed to construct a risk score model to predict the prognosis of patients with COAD based on necroptosis-related genes.

Methods: The gene expression data of COAD and normal colon samples were obtained from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx).

Spatiotemporal distribution of the atmospheric C around Ningde NPP.

In this paper, the sampling and monitoring methods of atmospheric C around Ningde NPP were presented, and the variations and trends during 2013-2021 were statistically analyzed and comparatively studied with worldwide reported values around NPPs. Meanwhile, the correlation study with the gaseous effluent emission amount from Ningde NPP was analyzed, and the spatial distribution of the atmospheric C around Ningde NPP was simulated with the atmospheric release based on the long-term meteorological parameters with the plume diffusion model. It was shown that the average specific activity of atmospheric C at each sampling site ranged from 229 to 230 mBq/gC, and the weak evidence of influence on the nearest sampling site from the release of the NPP could be observed.

Clinical features of pediatric patients with COVID-19: a report of two family cluster cases.

Background: Coronovirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread rapidly across the globe. People of all ages are susceptible to COVID-19. However, literature reports on pediatric patients are limited.

A correlation study of continuously monitored gamma dose rate and meteorological conditions.

In this paper, the correlations between the continuously monitored gamma dose rate (GDR) and meteorological parameters, including precipitation, air temperature, relative humidity, air pressure, wind direction, and wind speed, were analyzed by using one year of the hourly dataset from a monitoring system with ten stations. The correlation coefficients are varied by the range of each meteorological parameter. Precipitation would enhance the GDR up to 84%, which is highly related to precipitation intensity and ground type.

Development of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)/alginate copolymer hydrogel-grafted fabrics embedding of berberine nanosuspension for the infected wound treatment.

In the present study, a novel hydrogel-grafted fabrics embedding of berberine nanosuspension was developed for the treatment of infected wound. Hydrogel-grafted fabric was prepared by graft copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide and alginate using ceric ammonium nitrate as initiator. Berberine nanosuspension was prepared and embedded in the hydrogel-grafted fabrics to achieve sustained drug release.

[Diagnosis of pleural cavity extraskeletal osteosarcoma: a case report and literature review].

Objective: To describe the manifestations and diagnosis of pleural cavity extraskeletal osteosarcoma (ESO).

Methods: One case of ESO diagnosed at the Research Institute of Tuberculosis, 309th Hospital of PLA was reported. Six cases reported in the literature were reviewed.

[Tuberculosis after organ transplantation: clinical analysis and literature review].

Objective: To describe the clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis after organ transplantation.

Method: The clinical data of 25 cases of tuberculosis after organ transplantation were retrospectively analyzed.

Results: Sixty-eight percent of the patients presented only mild symptoms.
