Background And Aims: Macrophages play a variety of widely concerned roles in the process of chronic kidney disease (CKD). To further understand the research hotspots and development trends regarding the relationship between macrophages and CKD, the role of macrophages in the occurrence and progression of CKD was summarized by bibliometrics in this study.
Material And Methods: We collected the studies relevant the role of macrophages in CKD from the Web of Science Core Collection, which included 1332 relevant studies from Jan 1st, 2004 to Jul 6th, 2023 in WoSCC.
The ivory shell Babylonia areolata is an economically important marine benthic gastropod known for its rapid growth and high nutritional value. B. areolata is distributed in Southeast Asia and the southeast coastal areas of China.

This study aimed to investigate the association between dietary patterns and all-cause mortality in the Chinese old. This study involved 11,958 subjects aged 65-116 years in the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS) from 2008 to 2018.

Here, we demonstrate a gate-tunable, self-driven, high-performance broadband phototransistor array based on a PdSe/Si Schottky junction, which is fabricated by pre-depositing a semi-metallic PdSe film on a SOI substrate. In addition, thanks to the zero bandgap of the PdSe material and the PdSe/Si vertical heterostructure, the prepared phototransistor exhibits pronounced photovoltaic properties in a wide spectral range from ultraviolet to near-infrared.

However, the IgE epitope and structure-allergenicity relationship of Scy p 9 are unclear. In this study, a hydrophobic bond was found to be an important factor of conformation maintaining.

The endemic trends of the main pathogens responsible for bovine diarrhea in Inner Mongolia have not been analyzed systematically before. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to estimate the prevalence of bovine diarrhea pathogens found in the scattered households of Inner Mongolia in China.

To collect and evaluate randomized controlled trials of high quality on FMT for UC, we searched a number of databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, Embase, and Medline, for studies published between the establishment of the databases and March 2023. We conducted a meta-analysis of the studies using Review Manager software (version 5.

In this study, arginine kinase (AK) was identified as an allergen in by LC-MS/MS. The open reading frame of AK was obtained, which included 356 amino acids, and recombinant AK (rAK) was expressed in .

Here, a new pentanary Hg-based sulfide KBaHgInS has been discovered by a high-temperature solid-state method. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic 222 space group, and its one-dimensional structure is constructed by {[InS]} chains and isolated [HgS] planar quadrilateral units located bewteeen the chains, representing a novel type of chalcogenide.

In this study, FLN c from was divided into three regions for recombinant expression based on the number of domains and amino acids. Using dot blot and basophil activation tests, the allergic predominant region of FLN c was determined to be 336-531 amino acid positions (named FLN c-M).

We investigated 782 factory workers for whether they would get a COVID-19 vaccine within the next 6 months. The participants were divided into a training set and a testing set for external validation conformed to a ratio of 3:1 with R software.

In this study, we measured fruit-cracking forces and percentages of dehisced pods for ten soybean accessions, then separated them into two groups as shattering-sensitive (SS) and shattering-resistant (SR) soybeans. Pod transcriptomes from these two groups were analyzed, and 225 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between SS and SR soybeans.

Due to the requirement of methods and limitation of data, 4 common methods in two views of regional and temporal in one site are analyzed and studied. Based on the meteorological data from 38 observatories from 1980-2009, haze-day and haze-hour number are both counted for each station, employing Method 1 and 2 (with daily mean observation) and Method 3 (with 14:00 observation).
