Displaced Femoral Neck Fractures Treated with Percutaneous Compression Plates in Elderly Individuals: An Effect Analysis Based on Imaging.

Background: The effects of percutaneous compression plate (PCP) internal fixation for femoral neck fractures (FNFs) in elderly individuals have rarely been reported. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the efficacy of PCCP internal fixation for displaced FNFs in elderly individuals based on imaging.

Methods: The clinical data of 32 elderly patients with FNFs treated with PCCP from January 2015 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.

Effect of molecular weight and distribution of bovine bone gelatin on the cross-linking gelation induced by transglutaminase.

In this work, six bovine bone gelatin (type B) samples with varying molecular weight (MW) fractions, comprising α-chains, high- and low-MW fractions, were prepared using ethanol precipitation and pH adjustment. The influence of molecular weight distribution (MWD) on gelatin gel strength was examined, along with the effects of these different MW fractions on microbial transglutaminase (MTGase) cross-linking gelatin. The results showed that, without MTGase treatment, high-MW fractions acted as key fillers in the formation of gelatin gel networks, while α-chains and their aggregates played a central role.

Mechanism insights into customized 2D nanoconfined catalyst via peroxymonosulfate activation for efficient sulfamethoxazole degradation: Key roles of electronic structure and non-radical pathway.

The technology to solve the problem of the efficient pollutant removal in peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation was the ultimate goal. There was an urgent need to achieving higher catalytic activity and oxidation efficiency. Herein, we present a MgAl-based layered double hydroxide assembled as a 2D confined catalyst (MgAl-Co-LDH) with Co metal in chelated form (Co-EDTA) for highly efficient PMS activation degrading sulfamethoxazole (SMX).

Conference 2024: Building an innovative scientific research ecosystem for microbiome and One Health.

The Conference 2024 provides a platform to promote the development of an innovative scientific research ecosystem for microbiome and One Health. The four key components - Technology, Research (Biology), Academic journals, and Social media - form a synergistic ecosystem. Advanced technologies drive biological research, which generates novel insights that are disseminated through academic journals.
