Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of forsythoside A (FA) on brain injury induced by severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) using a murine model.
Methods: Mice were induced with 3.5 % sodium taurocholate to model SAP-induced brain injury (SAP-IBI) and were randomly assigned to four distinct treatment regimens: the SAP-IBI model group (SAP-IBI), low-dose FA treatment group (FA L+SI), middle-dose FA treatment group (FA M+SI), and high-dose FA treatment group (FA H+SI).
Objectives: The safety and feasibility of repeat biopsy after systemic treatment for non-small cell lung cancer have received extensive attention in recent years. The purpose of this research was to compare complication rates between initial biopsy and rebiopsy in non-small cell lung cancer patients with progressive disease and to assess complication risk factors and clinical results after rebiopsy.
Methods: The study included 113 patients initially diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer who underwent lung biopsy at initial biopsy and rebiopsy after progression while on epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) and/or chemotherapy from January 2018 to December 2021.

Three-dimensional (3D) integration has become a leading approach in chip packaging. The interconnection density and reliability of micro-bumps in chip stacking are often threatened by high bonding temperatures. The method of building chip-to-chip interconnections by electroless deposition of metal has its distinct merit, while the interfacial defect issue, especially that related to voiding during the merging of opposite sides, remains largely unsolved.

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is characterized by Th2-skewed inflammation and increased colonization by . CRSwNP can be distinguished as eosinophilic (ECRSwNP) and non-eosinophilic (NECRSwNP) by the infiltration of eosinophils. The local microbiota plays an important role in the persistent inflammation of CRSwNP.

In this study we aimed to evaluate the effects of foot massage on relieving pain and anxiety of patients with anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF).
Methods: Enrolled patients undergone ACDF and diagnosed with anxiety disorder at least six months before surgery were treated with 10-min foot massage on a daily basis for four weeks using sweet almond oil.
Background: The prevalence of eosinophilic CRSwNP in China has increased significantly over the last 20 years, noninvasive methods that could assist in diagnosis are urgently needed.
Aims: The aim of this study is to explore the clinical significance of peripheral blood eosinophil in diagnosing ECRS.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a prospective study of 221 patients diagnosed with CRS.
This dataset is the supplementary data for the summited research article Li et al., 2017 [1] and provides detailed data profiles to support the explication about mineral constituents' effect on temperature-dependent structural characterization of carbon fractions in sewage sludge-derived biochar. The elemental compositions of major inorganics in the sewage sludge were detected by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF, S2-Ranger, Bruker).

However, owing to the complexity of the protein family, the involvement of CarEs in insecticide metabolism in Plutella xylostella has not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to characterise two CarE genes and assess their potential roles in response to chlorpyrifos in P.

Despite being a worldwide pest of many economically important cruciferous crops, the influence of inbreeding on diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.), populations is currently unknown.

The completion of several insect genome projects has enabled the identification and characterization of GST genes over recent years. This study presents a genome-wide investigation of the diamondback moth (DBM), Plutella xylostella, a species in which the GSTs are of special importance because this pest is highly resistant to many insecticides.
