Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio as predictors of refractory anaphylaxis.

Background: Refractory anaphylaxis poses an ongoing, lethal hypersensitivity response that unpredictably involves multiple organs despite appropriate intramuscular (IM) adrenaline injections. Studies on the association of the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) concerning anaphylactic severity have yet to be carried out. The study aimed to evaluate the association between blood PLR and NLR levels and refractory anaphylaxis.

Rapid and Efficient Dual Detection Of Zn Ions and Oxytetracycline Hydrochloride Using a Responsive Fluorescent "On-Off" Sensor Based on Simple Salen-Type Schiff Base Ligand.

This research has progressed to an effective detection chemosensor of zinc, aluminum ions and oxytetracycline hydrochloride antibiotic based on the fluorescence technique. A straightforward method utilizing microwave irradiation was employed to synthesize the salen-type Schiff base ligand N,N'-bis(salicylaldehyde)4,5-dichloro-1,2-phenylenediamine (HI), providing a good 70 % yield. In ethanol, the HI sensor demonstrated remarkable rapidity, selectivity, and sensitivity in detecting zinc ions.

Exploration of Remarkably Potential Multitarget-Directed N-Alkylated-2-(substituted phenyl)-1-benzimidazole Derivatives as Antiproliferative, Antifungal, and Antibacterial Agents.

Improving lipophilicity for drugs to penetrate the lipid membrane and decreasing bacterial and fungal coinfections for patients with cancer pose challenges in the drug development process. Here, a series of new N-alkylated-2-(substituted phenyl)-1-benzimidazole derivatives were synthesized and characterized by H and C NMR, FTIR, and HRMS spectrum analyses to address these difficulties. All the compounds were evaluated for their antiproliferative, antibacterial, and antifungal activities.

Visible light-Driven AgBr/AgCl@MIL-101(Fe) Composites For Removal of Organic Contaminant From Wastewater.

Microwave-solvothermal synthesized MIL-101(Fe) was successfully loaded by silver halides (AgCl and AgBr) by simple precipitation method. The XRD, FESEM mapping, XPS and DRS measurements reveal the successful fabrication of composite photocatalyst. The results suggested that silver halides altered surface charge, surface area and pore size distribution of MIL-101(Fe).
