[A case report of Crohn's disease in a child with trisomy 8].

The patient is a 12-year-old male who has experienced recurrent perianal abscesses for over 10 years, along with recurrent oral ulcers and deformities in the joints of hands and feet. Gastrointestinal endoscopy and capsule endoscopy revealed multiple ulcers in the digestive tract. Combined with his histopathological examinations, the patient was diagnosed with Crohn's disease.

Development of sensitive biomass xylan-based carbon dots fluorescence sensor for quantification detection Cu in real water and soil.

Copper ions (Cu) pose significant risks to both human health and the environment as they tend to accumulate in soil and water. To address this issue, an innovative method using biomass-derived fluorescent carbon dots (D-CDs) synthesized via a hydrothermal process, with xylan serving as the carbon source was developed. D-CDs solution exhibited remarkable sensitivity and selectivity as a fluorescence sensor for Cu, boasting a low detection threshold of 0.

Biomimetic triggered release from hydroxyethyl cellulose @ Prussian blue microparticles for tri-modality biofilm removal.

Human health is under growing threat from the increasing incidence of bacterial infections. Through their antimicrobial mechanisms, bacteria use appropriate strategies to overcome the antimicrobial effects of antibiotics. The enhanced effects of synergistic strategies on drug-resistant bacteria and biofilms have led to increasing interest in these approaches in recent years.

Characteristics of the Cajal interstitial cells and intestinal microbiota in children with refractory constipation.

Background: Children with refractory constipation experience intense and persistent symptoms that greatly diminish their quality of life. However, the underlying pathophysiological mechanism responsible for this condition remains uncertain. Our objective was to evaluate characteristics of colonic motor patterns and interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) to refractory constipation children, as well as intestinal microbiota compositions.

Biomass-based indole derived fluorescence sensor composited with cellulose paper: Detection of picric acid in food and environment samples.

Picric acid (PA) is highly water-soluble, the fact makes it stand out as the most hazardous environment pollutant. Therefore, accurate determination of PA is of great significance for human health and environmental protection. Herein, a novel indole-based fluorescent sensor (H1) with good water solubility and fluorescence stability was reported.

Prussian blue composite microswimmer based on alginate-chitosan for biofilm removal.

Bacterial infections pose a serious threat to public health, causing worldwide morbidity and about 80 % of bacterial infections are related to biofilm. Removing biofilm without antibiotics remains an interdisciplinary challenge. To solve this problem, we presented a dual-power driven antibiofilm system Prussian blue composite microswimmers based on alginate-chitosan, which designed into an asymmetric structure to achieve self-driven in the fuel solution and magnetic field.

Chitosan enhanced the stability and antibiofilm activity of self-propelled Prussian blue micromotor.

The emergence, spread and difficult removal of bacteria biofilm, represent an ever-increasing persistent infections and medical complications challenge worldwide. Herein, a self-propelled system Prussian blue micromotor (PB MMs) were constructed by gas-shearing technology for efficient degradation of biofilms by combining chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT). With the interpenetrating network crosslinked by alginate, chitosan (CS) and metal ions as the substrate, PB was generated and embedded in the micromotor at the same time of crosslinking.

Characterisation of corrosion-induced crack in concrete using ultrasonic diffuse coda wave.

Corrosion damage in reinforcing steel bars has been a major cause of cracking and spalling of reinforced concrete. To extend the service life of concrete structures, non-destructive testing methods are necessary to assess the corrosion status in order to conduct a timely repair. At the early stage of corrosion, rust grows from the reinforcing bar, subsequently generates cracks towards the surface of the concrete.

Multicompartmental Microcapsules for Enzymatic Cascade Reactions Prepared through Gas Shearing and Surface Gelation.

Inspired by the structure of eukaryotic cells, multicompartmental microcapsules have gained increasing attention. However, challenges remain in the fabrication of "all-aqueous" (., oil-free) microcapsules composed of accurately adjustable hierarchical compartments.

Spatial confinement of multi-enzyme for cascade catalysis in cell-inspired all-aqueous multicompartmental microcapsules.

Biocatalytic reaction networks in eukaryotic cells is realized by the immobilized and compartmental multi-enzymatic system. Inspired by the spatial localization of natural cells, multiple enzymes were confined within the multicompartmental microcapsules, which were created using a gas-shearing method coupled with surface-triggered in situ gelation strategy. Heterogeneous multicompartmental (two-, three-, four-, six-, or eight-faced) core particles, due to their capacity for positional assembly, were encapsuled in alginate hydrogel shells.

A Prussian blue alginate microparticles platform based on gas-shearing strategy for antitumor and antibacterial therapy.

Prussian blue (PB) with distinct hollow mesoporous structure and favorable properties has captured the attention of extensive biomaterial researchers. However, there is an unmet need for biocompatible PB microparticles with recyclability fabricated by a facile method. Herein, a size-controlled PB alginate microparticles (PBAMs) generated by a one-step and large batch production gas-shearing strategy.

Molecular Diagnosis of Panel-Based Next-Generation Sequencing Approach and Clinical Symptoms in Patients With Glycogen Storage Disease: A Single Center Retrospective Study.

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical utility of panel-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) in the diagnostic approach of glycogen storage disease (GSD). We performed a retrospective review of the 32 cases with suspected GSDs between April 2013 and November 2019 through panel-based NGS, clinical and biochemical data and long-term complications. Of the 32 clinical cases, we identified 41 different variants, including 24 missense (58.

Simultaneous detection of seven enteric viruses associated with acute gastroenteritis by a multiplexed Luminex-based assay.

Rapid and broad diagnostic methods are needed for the identification of viral agents of gastroenteritis. In this study, we used Luminex xMAP technology to develop a multiplexed assay for the simultaneous identification of major enteric viral pathogens, including rotavirus A (RVA), noroviruses (NoVs) (including genogroups GI and GII), sapoviruses (SaV), human astrovirus (HAstV), enteric adenoviruses (EAds), and human bocavirus 2 (HBoV2). The analytical sensitivity allowed detection of 10(3) (EAds, HBoV2, and RVA) and 10(4) (NoV GI and GII, SaV, and HAstV) copies per reaction mixture.
