Clinical decision-making in bone cancer care management and forecast of ICU needs based on computed tomography.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the role of computed tomography (CT) imaging in the diagnosis and management of bone cancer during periods of limited access to histopathological testing. We aimed to determine the correlation between CT severity levels and subsequent patient management and care decisions, adhering to established oncological CT reporting guidelines.

Methodology: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 60 symptomatic patients from January 2021 to January 2024.

[Effects of Microplastics on the Leaching of Nutrients and Cadmium from Soil].

The environmental effects of microplastics, which are considered a type of emerging contaminants, have attracted increasing concern due to their small size, large specific surface area, strong adsorption capacity, and low degradability. Microplastics can change soil properties and affect the migration ability of nutrients and pollutants in soil, but their effects on the leaching of soil nutrients and heavy metals have not been sufficiently studied. A soil column leaching experiment was conducted to explore the effects of polystyrene (PS) and polylactic acid (PLA) microplastics at different mass fractions (0%, 0.

Enhanced reduction of nitrate by TDER packed with surface-modified plastic particles electrodes.

Based on Iron cathodes, nitrate could be selectively decomposed into other lower-valence nitrogen compounds, including ammonia, nitrogen gas, nitrite and nitric oxide, but the removal efficiencies of nitrate and total nitrogen (TN), are affected significantly by the synergistic effects of anodes, chloride electrolyte and conductive plastic particles electrodes. In this work, the base material Titanium (Ti) metal plates and plastic particles which surfaces were mainly coated with Ru-Sn oxidizing compounds, were applied as plates anodes and conductive particles electrodes in Three Dimensional Electrode Reactors (TDER). The Ti/RuSn plate anodes showed excellent performance on degrading nitrate, more nitrogen gas (83.
