Efficacy and safety of intracavitary electrocardiography-guided peripherally inserted central catheters in pediatric patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of intracavitary electrocardiography (IC-ECG)-guided peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) placements in pediatric patients, emphasizing improvements over traditional placement methods.

Methods: A literature search was conducted in April 2024 across PubMed, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE. Studies focusing on pediatric patients and reporting the efficacy and safety of IC-ECG-guided PICC placement the upper extremity were included.

Minimally invasive pyeloplasty versus open pyeloplasty for ureteropelvic junction obstruction in infants: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: To compare the perioperative outcomes and success rates of minimally invasive pyeloplasty (MIP), including laparoscopic and robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty, with open pyeloplasty (OP) in infants.

Materials And Methods: In September 2022, a systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library databases was undertaken. The systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted in accordance with PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines, with the study registered prospectively in the PROSPERO database (CRD42022359475).

NTA-assisted mineral element and lead transportation in Eremochloa ophiuroides (Munro) Hack.

Lead (Pb) is one of the most toxic and harmful pollutants to the environment and human health. Centipedegrass (Eremochloa ophiuroides (Munro) Hack.), an excellent ground cover plant for urban plant communities, exhibits the outstanding lead tolerance and accumulation.

Melatonin-assisted phytoremediation of Pb-contaminated soil using bermudagrass.

Exogenous application of melatonin to plants is a promising approach for assisted phytoremediation of soil lead (Pb). In this study, we investigated the effects of foliar applications of melatonin to mature bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.

Effect of 24-epibrassinolide on reactive oxygen species and antioxidative defense systems in tall fescue plants under lead stress.

Lead is one of the most hazardous pollutants to both the environment as well as human beings. As one of the approaches to enhance phytoremediation, brassinosteroids are predicted as a potential candidate phytohormone for assisted phytoremediation. Few studies have focused on the physiological regulations of tall fescue plants (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.
