Digital-based emergency prevention and control system: enhancing infection control in psychiatric hospitals.

Background: The practical application of infectious disease emergency plans in mental health institutions during the ongoing pandemic has revealed significant shortcomings. These manifest as chaotic management of mental health care, a lack of hospital infection prevention and control (IPC) knowledge among medical staff, and unskilled practical operation. These factors result in suboptimal decision-making and emergency response execution.

Expression of AtNF-YB1 activates early flowering, showing potential in breeding hybrid rice.

The nuclear factor Y (NF-Y) has been shown to be involved in plant growth and development in response to various environmental signals. However, the integration of these mechanisms into breeding practices for new cultivars has not been extensively investigated. In this study, the Arabidopsis gene AtNF-YB1 was introduced into rice, including inbred Kasalath and the hybrids Jinfeng × Chenghui 727 and Jinfeng × Chuanhui 907.

Effect of particulate organic matter fractions on the distribution of heavy metals with aided phytostabilization at a zinc smelting waste slag site.

Particulate organic matter (POM) significantly affects the distribution of heavy metals in contaminated soil. However, the effect of POM on the fate of heavy metals during in situ-aided phytostabilization of waste slag is unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate the distributions of heavy metals such as Cu, Pb, Zn, and Cd in the POM fractions at a zinc smelting waste slag site under in situ-aided phytostabilization after five years.

Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics Studies on Selective Synthesis of α-Amyrin and β-Amyrin by Oxidosqualene Cyclases from .

Amyrins are the immediate precursors of many pharmaceutically important pentacyclic triterpenoids. Although various amyrin synthases have been identified, little is known about the relationship between protein structures and the constituent and content of the products. IaAS1 and IaAS2 identified from in our previous work belong to multifunctional oxidosqualene cyclases and can produce α-amyrin and β-amyrin at different ratios.

Dioscin suppresses hepatocellular carcinoma tumor growth by inducing apoptosis and regulation of TP53, BAX, BCL2 and cleaved CASP3.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy of the liver, occurs frequently in the setting of chronic liver injury. Although multiple therapeutic approaches are available, the prognosis of patients with HCC remains poor. Dioscin is a natural steroid saponin that presents in various plants.
