Effects of dissolved oxygen on the sludge dewaterability and extracellular polymeric substances distribution by bioleaching.

Bioleaching is a biological conditioning technology for sludge, which not only improves sludge dewatering performance but also removes heavy metals from sludge. As the bioleaching process is a comprehensive biological and chemical process, it is necessary to explore the effects of dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations on bioleaching efficiency. Three bioleaching experiments with different DO concentrations (T1: 0.

Diffuse panbronchiolitis: A case report from a Chinese consanguineous marriage family and literature review.

Diffuse panbronchiolitis (DPB) is a chronic diffuse airway inflammatory disease, which is strongly associated with the class I human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles. Here, we report a pair of sisters who have been suffering from chronic cough, expectoration and wheezing for many years. They were previously misdiagnosed as chronic bronchitis and bronchial asthma, and were recently diagnosed as diffuse panbronchiolitis.

Comparative Analysis of 95 Patients with Different Severity in the Early Outbreak of COVID-19 in Wuhan, China.

Objective: To explore the clinical characteristics of patients with different severity in the early outbreak of COVID-19, hoping to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 95 COVID-19 patients in Wuhan Red Cross Hospital of China from January 17 to February 13, 2020. All patients were investigated with epidemiological questionnaires.
