Salicylic acid is a commonly used anti-spoilage agent to prevent browning and quality degradation during potato processing, yet its precise mechanism remains unclear. This study elucidates the role of StuPPO2, a functional protein in Favorita potato shreds, in relation to the anti-browning and starch degradation effects of 52 SA analogues. By employing molecular docking and Gaussian computing, SA localizes within the hydrophobic cavity of StuPPO2, facilitated by hydroxyl and carboxyl groups.

Aim: To investigate the epidemiology and resuscitation effects of cardiopulmonary arrest among hospitalized children and adolescents in Beijing.

Methods: A prospective multicentre study was conducted in four hospitals in urban/suburban areas of Beijing. Patients aged 1 month-18 years with cardiopulmonary arrest and received cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) who were consecutively hospitalised during the study period (1 September 2008-31 December 2010) were enrolled.
