Article Synopsis
  • The study examined the effects of adenoidectomy, tonsillectomy, and combined tonsillectomy with adenoidectomy on children with obstructive sleep apnea using computational fluid dynamics simulations.
  • Using various surgical models and analyzing pressure, flow velocity, and flow distribution, the researchers identified changes in airflow dynamics post-surgery.
  • Results showed that combined surgery led to improved airflow uniformity in the upper airway, while each individual procedure also altered pressure and flow characteristics differently.

The effects of Fe(II) and humic acid on U(VI) immobilization onto oxidized carbon nanofibers (Ox-CNFs, pyrolysis of bacterial cellulose) were investigated by batch, spectroscopic and modeling techniques, with results suggesting that, Ox-CNFs exhibited fast adsorption rate (adsorption equilibrium within 3 h), high adsorption performance (maximum adsorption capacity of 208.4 mg/g), good recyclability (no notable change after five regenerations) in the presence of Fe(II) towards U(VI) from aqueous solutions (e.g.

In the last few decades, U(VI) is a significant environmental threat. The innovative and environmentally friendly adsorbent materials for U(VI) removal were urgent. Preparation of the modified biochar from wheat straw by combined composites of MnFeO nanoparticles and chitosan Schiff base (MnFeO@CsSB/BC) was characterized, and adsorption experiments were carried out to investigate the performance and interfacial mechanism of U(VI) removal.

Heavy metal pollution is one of the environmental problems that need to be solved urgently. The adsorption method is thought as the most effective and economical treatment technology. Nature biochar usually showed unsatisfactory adsorption capacity due to its relatively small adsorption capacity and slow adsorption rate.

Background: Hantaan virus is a major zoonotic pathogen that causesing hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS). Although HFRS pathogenesis has not been entirely elucidated, the importance of host-related immune responses in HFRS pathogenesis has been widely recognized. CD163, a monocyte and macrophage-specific scavenger receptor that plays a vital function in the hosts can reduce inflammation, is shed during activation as soluble CD163 (sCD163).
