Microbiological mechanism of hydrogen fertilizer effect in soil.

For a long time, intercropping and rotation of leguminous with non-leguminous crops is widely used to reduce the application of nitrogen fertilizer and increase yield in agroecosystems. At present, most researchers considered that this management measure is helpful for reducing fertilizer consumption and increasing its efficiency, as it can improve nutrient supply of legumestonon-legumes, the spatial nutrient utilization efficiency by enhancing soil spatial heterogeneity, and improve soil structure and disease resistance. However, current theories cannot fully explain the positive effect of crop rotation and inter-cropping systems involving legumes.

Burkitt lymphoma manifested by initial oral and maxillofacial lesions: a case report in a child patient and review of related articles.

Burkitt lymphoma is a highly aggressive B-cell lymphoma and the fastest proliferating human malignant tumor. If the disease is found in the early stage, the patient could have a high possibility to be cured successfully, whereas the prognosis is poor in the late stage. Burkitt lymphoma can occur in children and adults, and it is categorized as local (Africa), sporadic, and immunodeficiency associated type.

Occurrence and human exposure risk of antibiotic resistance genes in tillage soils of dryland regions: A case study of northern Ningxia Plain, China.

Agricultural soils are important source and sink of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). However, little is known about the fate of ARGs in dryland soils, while its human exposure risks were seriously overlooked. Taking the northern Ningxia Plain as a case, this study explored the occurrence of ARGs and its relationship with mobile genetic elements (MGEs), pathogens, and environmental factors.

PagTPS1 and PagTPS10, the trehalose-6-phosphate synthase genes, increase trehalose content and enhance drought tolerance.

Trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS) genes play an active role in the trehalose metabolism pathway that regulates the responses of plants to diverse stresses. However, the functional identification, comparison, and conservatism of TPS genes in the responses of woody plants, especially poplars, to drought stress remain unclear. Here, the trehalose content of 84K (Populus alba × P.

MiRNAs profiles among three poplar varieties provide insights into different molecular responses in resistance to newly emerging bacterial pathogen.

Canker caused by Lonsdalea populi has seriously reduced the economic and ecological benefits of poplar. MicroRNAs play vital roles in the response of plants to biotic stress. However, there is little research about the regulatory mechanism of miRNAs among different tree varieties upon pathogen infection.

Effects and mechanisms of microbial ecology and diversity on phytoremediation of cadmium-contaminated soil under the influence of biodegradable organic acids.

In recent years, heavy metal pollution has become a global environmental problem and poses a great threat to the health of people and ecosystems. Therefore, strategies for the effective remediation of Cd from contaminated soil are urgently needed. In this study, ryegrass was utilized as a remediation plant, and its remediation potential was enhanced through the application of Citric Acid (CA) in conjunction with Bacillus megaterium (B.

Construction of a predictive model of respiratory endoscopic intervention in children with lobar pneumonia caused by infection.

Background: This study aimed to analyze the clinical features of children with lobar pneumonia caused by (MP) infection, to explore the independent risk factors for bronchoscopic intervention in children with lobar pneumonia caused by MP infection. There is a lack of objective assessment tools to guide the use of bronchoscopy in clinical practice. For children with lobar pneumonia caused by MP infection, whether line shall be actively bronchoscope intervention therapy remains to be further defined.

From waste to wonder: exploring the hypoglycemic and anti-oxidant properties of corn processing by-products.

The industrial processing of corn ( L.) generates by-products such as corn silk, straw peels, and straw core, which contribute to adverse environmental impacts. Our study aimed to investigate sustainable approaches for mitigating these effects by evaluating the hypoglycemic potential and mechanisms of ethyl acetate fractions derived from these corn derivatives.

Vim-PSA Double-Target DBS for the Treatment of Holmes Tremor Secondary to Brainstem Hemorrhage: A Case Report.

We report the case of a 53-year-old man who was diagnosed with Holmes tremor and underwent deep brain stimulation of the ventro-intermediate thalamic nucleus and posterior subthalamic area. We assessed the patients' tremor with the Fahn-Tolosa-Marin Tremor Rating Scale at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after deep brain stimulation. Deep brain stimulation relieved the patient's tremor during the 24-month follow-up period.
