AI Article Synopsis

  • The phototropic response of the JK224 strain of Arabidopsis thaliana varies depending on the fluence rate and light wavelength used.
  • At a low fluence rate of 0.1 micromole m-2 s-1 with 450-nm light, there's one peak response, while at a higher rate of 0.4 micromole m-2 s-1, two peaks emerge.
  • Preirradiating the plants with high fluence 510-nm light modifies the response to subsequent 450-nm light, suggesting that a specific photoreceptor pigment in this strain has been affected.

Article Abstract

The shape of the fluence-response relationship for the phototropic response of the JK224 strain of Arabidopsis thaliana depends on the fluence rate and wavelength of the actinic light. At low fluence rate (0.1 micromole m-2 s-1), the response to 450-nm light is characterized by a single maximum at about 9 micromoles m-2. At higher fluence rate (0.4 micromole m-2 s-1), the response shows two maxima, at 4.5 and 9 micromoles m-2. The response to 510-nm light shows a single maximum at 4.5 micromoles m-2. Unilateral preirradiation with high fluence rate (25 micromoles m-2 s-1) 510-nm light eliminates the maximum at 4.5 micromoles m-2 in the fluence response curve to a subsequent unilateral 450-nm irradiation, while the second maximum at 9 micromoles m-2 is unaffected. Based on these results, it is concluded that a single photoreceptor pigment has been altered in the JK224 strain of Arabidopsis thaliana.

There is evidence to support the hypothesis that dietary antioxidants have shown protective effects against chronic kidney disease (CKD). The purpose of this study was to determine the association between the dietary total antioxidant capacity (DTAC), renal function, and development of CKD and kidney stones in Ravansar Non-Communicable Diseases (RaNCD) cohort study, Kermanshah, Iran. This cross-sectional study was conducted using the recruitment baseline data of the RaNCD cohort study on 9,777 individuals aged 35-65 years.

Accuracy of freely available online GFR calculators using the CKD-EPI equation.

Eur J Clin Pharmacol

October 2020

Department of Clinical Pharmacology and Pharmacoepidemiology, University of Heidelberg, Im Neuenheimer Feld 410, 69120, Heidelberg, Germany.

Purpose: Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) as calculated by the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation is used for detection of chronic kidney disease and drug dose adjustment. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the accuracy of freely available eGFR online calculators.

Methods: All identified CKD-EPI online calculators were run with five reference cases differing in age, sex, serum creatinine, and ethnicity.

Massive intravenous manganese overdose due to compounding error: minimal role for hemodialysis.

Clin Toxicol (Phila)

July 2016

a Division of Medical Toxicology, Ronald O. Perelman Department of Emergency Medicine , NYU School of Medicine, New York , NY , USA ;

Context: Manganese-associated parkinsonism is well described in occupational settings, in chronic methcathinone users, and in patients receiving long-term total parenteral nutrition. We present a unique case of acute intravenous manganese poisoning with a systematic evaluation of hemodialysis efficacy.

Case Details: A 52-year-old woman was inadvertently administered a single intravenous dose of 800 mg compounded manganese chloride at an outpatient chelation center.

By using microscope technique and gas exchange method, the effects of light conditions on structure and photosynthetic characteristics of the leaves were studied with potted and fielded 'Hanfu' apple as materials. The results showed that the palisade tissue, spongy tissue and the total leaf thickness of 'Hanfu' apple was declined under the weak light environment, the palisade tissue were declined by 34.5% (pot) and 25.

Environmental pulses, or sudden, marked changes to the conditions within an ecosystem, can be important drivers of resource availability in many systems. In this study, we investigated the effect of tidal pulsing on the fluxes of nitrous oxide (N2O), a powerful greenhouse gas, from a marine intertidal mudflat on the north shore of Massachusetts, USA. We found these tidal flat sediments to be a sink of N2O at low tide with an average uptake rate of -6.
