Changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) are of great importance to the evolution of soil quality. The distribution characteristics of soil organic carbon (SOC), easily oxidizable organic carbon (EOC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and particulate organic carbon (POC) were investigated in the 0-50 cm soil layer of the , , and communities of the supratidal zone in the Yellow River Delta as the research subjects. Then, the composition and sources of soil dissolved organic matter (DOM) were analyzed based on the UV-vis spectroscopy, three-dimensional excitation emission matrix spectroscopy, and parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC).

Increasing studies have focused on their inter-relationship, however, the underlying mechanism has yet to be fully elucidated. Few studies have considered the role of dietary inflammation and serum albumin in the association between tooth loss and cognitive function.

Despite the proliferation of research in this area, the underlying mechanism linking tooth loss and cognitive decline remains poorly understood. Limited investigation has been conducted to explore the potential role of lipid metabolism and its impact on the association between tooth loss and cognitive function.

However, variations in treatment and outcomes in patients with stage II colon cancer remain.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the survival benefits of treatments concordant with suggested therapeutic options from Watson for Oncology, a clinical decision support system.

In the title compound, [HgI(2)(C(23)H(14)N(4)O)], the Hg(II) atom is four-coordinated by two N atoms from one 1-(1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)naphthalen-2-ol ligand and by two I atoms in a distorted tetra-hedral environment. An intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond stabilizes the mol-ecular conformation and an inter-molecular N-H⋯I inter-action stabilizes the crystal packing.

Methods: Sixteen healthy volunteers were randomly divided into SJ5 group and SJ5 plus GB34 group, and there were 8 volunteers in each group. The volunteers in the two groups received needling at corresponding points on the right hand or foot respectively.
