Clinicopathologic Characteristics of 40 Cases of Juvenile Conjunctival Nevus.

Aims: Limited studies have been conducted on juvenile conjunctival nevus (JCN) in Asian populations. This study aims to investigate the clinical and pathologic characteristics of JCN cases among the Han ethnicity in northwest China, providing insights for pathologists and ophthalmologists in diagnosing this condition.

Methods: A subset of conjunctival nevi in children and adolescents, characterized by a confluent growth pattern and lack of maturation, was identified and defined as JCN.

Unveiling the role of NiFeM hydroxide (M = Pt, Ru, Ir, Rh) cocatalysts for robust H production in photocatalytic water splitting.

In this study, the NiFe-LDH doped with different Pt group metals (Pt, Ru, Ir, Rh) was prepared as a cocatalyst for photocatalytic H production over g-CN. It is found that the doped NiFe-LDH loaded g-CN generally displays higher photocatalytic activity than the raw NiFe-LDH modified one, where the NiFeRu-LDH loaded g-CN shows the optimal H evolution rate of 77.4 μmol h, about 5.

Prevalence of malnutrition among adult inpatients in China: a nationwide cross-sectional study.

Malnutrition substantially contributes to adverse clinical outcomes. However, no national survey has been conducted to characterize its epidemiology in hospital settings in China. We conducted the China Nutrition Fundamental Data 2020 project among a multistage stratified cluster sample of adult inpatients from 291 study sites across 30 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities (except for Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan Province, and the Xizang Autonomous Region, please see MATERIALS AND METHODS for details of the causes) of China to generate reliable data on the prevalence of malnutrition and explore the associated risk factors.

Multisite synergistic interaction induced selective adsorption of CB5-TiCT complex for strontium ion: A combined theoretical and experimental study.

In this work, we use a well-defined water-soluble macrocyclic molecule cucurbit[5]uril (CB5) to modify 2D TiCT MXene and assemble a novel high-performance adsorbent CB5-TiCT for Sr ion by density functional theory and experimental methods. The structural stabilities of two distinct types of CB5-TiCT (T = F, O and OH) complexes, i.e.

The wheat NLR pair RXL/Pm5e confers resistance to powdery mildew.

Powdery mildew poses a significant threat to global wheat production and most cloned and deployed resistance genes for wheat breeding encode nucleotide-binding and leucine-rich repeat (NLR) immune receptors. Although two genetically linked NLRs function together as an NLR pair have been reported in other species, this phenomenon has been relatively less studied in wheat. Here, we demonstrate that two tightly linked NLR genes, RXL and Pm5e, arranged in a head-to-head orientation, function together as an NLR pair to mediate powdery mildew resistance in wheat.
