Immunologic activation of the splenic white pulp seemed to be an important feature of the structural changes in the 8 splenectomized patients with ITP. However, destruction of the platelets with CD 16+ monocytes was the most prominent change in the Billroth's cords of the splenic red pulp. Classical NK cells did not play an important role in platelets destruction.

Delayed Neurological Deficits Following Lumbar 1 Burst Fracture: A Diagnostic Challenge Without Radiological Correlates.

Spinal cord injuries, including rare cases without radiological abnormalities, pose diagnostic challenges, particularly in cases of delayed neurological deficit development. This case report describes a 55-year-old man with a stable L1 burst fracture who developed delayed neurological deficits two weeks after sustaining a fall despite no evidence of intrinsic or extrinsic spinal cord abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The patient initially presented with back pain, normal muscle strength across all myotomes, and imaging that showed no canal stenosis or retropulsion fragments.

Background: Climate change has raised significant concerns about its impact on health, particularly for vulnerable populations such as children and adolescents. While extensive research has examined physical health effects, limited attention has been given to the influence of extreme heat on developmental and behavioral outcomes.
Objectives: This study investigates the association between extreme heat exposure and early puberty initiation (ages 9-10), using data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study.
Applying the Sabatier Principle to Decipher the Surface-Structure-Dependent Catalysis of Different Starch Granules by Pullulanase.

Interfacial enzyme catalysis is widespread in both nature and industry. Granular starch is a sustainable and abundant raw material for which a rigorous correlation of the surface structure with enzymatic degradation is lacking. Here pullulanase-catalyzed debranching of 12 granular starches varying in amylopectin contents and branch chain contents and lengths is shown to present a biphasic relationship characteristic of the Sabatier principle.

The scarcity of approaches to assembling copper nanoclusters (Cu NCs) has restricted advancements in Cu NCs research, largely due to stability challenges of the individual NCs. By utilizing the structural adaptability of Cu NCs, we systematically investigate how variations in organic linkers and solvents affect the cluster node size, shape, and their assembling dimensionality. Here, we introduce a facile, one-pot synthesis method for obtaining a range of crystalline Cu cluster-assembled materials (CAMs) through a liquid-liquid interfacial crystallization technique.

We describe Zn(ii) and Cu(ii) complexes of this peptide, aiming to understand how metal binding and structure correlates to biological activity. Using NMR, UV-vis, CD and FTIR spectroscopies, along with cyclic voltammetry, potentiometry, and DFT calculations, we demonstrate that Cu(ii) binds to the central and C-terminal regions of the peptide, inducing significant structural changes.
