Rational Design and Synthesis of Fe-Doped Co-Based Coordination Polymer Composite Photocatalysts for the Degradation of Norfloxacin and Ciprofloxacin.

The solar light-responsive Fe-doped Co-based coordination polymer (Fe@Co-CP) photocatalyst was synthesized under mild conditions. [Co(4-padpe)(1,3-BDC)] (Co-CP) was first constructed using mixed ligands through the hydrothermal method. Then, Fe was introduced into the Co-CP framework to achieve the enhanced photocatalytic activity.

[Effects of different fertilization patterns on soil improvement and vegetation restoration of desertified grassland in northwest Liaoning Province, China].

Improving soil fertility is one of the key approaches for ecological restoration of the wind-sand area in northwest Liaoning Province. Taking wind-sand area in northwest Liaoning Province as test object, we conducted a fertilization experiment with treatments of inorganic fertilizer (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers), organic fertilizer, combined application of organic and inorganic fertilizers, and organic fertilizer combined with a biologically organic matrix (γ-polyglutamic acid), and no fertilizer as control. We measured soil organic matter content and extractable cations concentrations, vegetation coverage, and biomass under different fertilization treatments and determine the suitable fertilization mode.

Piperonyl-Tethered Rhodanine Derivatives Potently Inhibit Chitinolytic Enzymes of .

Insect pest chitinases are potential target for developing new insect growth regulators. Piperine was found first to inhibit the insect chitinase (Chi-h) from (Asian corn borer) in this work, except for previously reported ChtI. Novel piperonyl-tethered rhodanine derivatives - were rationally designed with piperine as lead and synthesized by introducing a unique rhodanine moiety into the piperine scaffold based on the similar binding cavity of ChtI and Chi-h.

Computer tomography-guided negative pressure drainage treatment of intrathoracic esophagojejunal anastomotic leakage: A case report.

Background: Esophagojejunal anastomotic leakage (EJAL) is a serious and potentially crucial complication of total gastrectomy and represents the major cause of postoperative death, with a mortality rate of up to 50%. However, treatment remains challenging and controversial. We report here the case of a patient whose intrathoracic EJAL was successfully treated with computer tomography (CT)-guided negative pressure drainage treatment.

[Analysis of influential factors of infant acceptance of new complementary food].

Objective: To investigate the process to accept the new complementary food, by infants and to analyze the influential factors.

Method: A total of 105 infants were enrolled in this study. Early infant temperament questionnaires were answered by the mothers.

Association between mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 1 rs889312 polymorphism and breast cancer risk: evidence from 59,977 subjects.

Published data on the association between mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 1 (MAP3K1) gene rs889312 polymorphism and breast cancer risk are inconclusive. To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship, a meta-analysis was performed. Crude ORs with 95% CIs were used to assess the strength of association between them.

Surgery for rare aneurysm associated with colorectal cancer.

The occurrence of concomitant aortic aneurysm and colorectal cancer is a rare medical entity, and controversy surrounds its optimal treatment. We report a case of rectal cancer and concomitant aneurysm from the ascending aorta to the common iliac artery. As with DeBakey type I aortic dissecting aneurysm, our patient was treated by rectal cancer resection, with preservation of the anus (Dixon operation) under controlled hypotension.

[The application of p53 gene mutation status in fecal specimen in the diagnosis of colorectal carcinoma].

Objective: To explore the value of analysis of p53 gene mutation in fecal specimen in the diagnosis of colorectal carcinoma (CRC) in order to establish a non-invasive method for the screening of CRC.

Methods: The status of p53 gene mutation of the tumor tissues and corresponding fecal specimens was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-single strand configuration polymorphism with EB staining in 40 CRC, 20 colorectal adenoma and 15 gastrocarcinoma.

Results: Amplification rates of fecal p53 gene were 90%, 85% and 93% in 40 CRC, 20 colorectal adenoma and 15 gastrocarcinoma, respectively.
