Growth and metabolic functions of Schizolobium amazonicum subjected to nickel doses.

Universidade Federal Rural da Amazônia - UFRA, Belém, PA, Brasil.
Anthropic activities such as industries, agriculture and mining has generated public concern for its numerous irregular disposals of its waste, the incorrect deposition of heavy metals such as nickel (Ni) has caused the degradation and contamination of groundwater and water. Studies that point out cheap and efficient solutions have been an obstacle to the advancement of solutions for degraded area recovery programs. For this, a vegetable home experiment was developed, with an entirely randomized design with 5 treatments being a control (no metal) and 4 nickel concentrations (200 μM/L; 400 μM/L; 600 μM/L and 800 μM/L) with 6 repetitions.

School of Metallurgy and Environment, Central South University, Changsha, 410083, Hunan, China.
In this study, an efficient membrane composed of polysulfone and graphene oxide was developed and evaluated for its efficacy in chromium adsorption. Characterization of the synthesized membrane involved comprehensive analyses including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to assess its structural properties. Subsequently, the membrane's performance in removing chromium from aqueous solutions was scrutinized, considering key operational parameters.

Nutritional immunity, a key component of the vertebrate innate immune response, involves the modulation of zinc availability to limit the growth of pathogens. counteracts host-imposed zinc starvation through metabolic adaptations, including reprogramming of gene expression and activating efficient metal uptake systems. To unravel how zinc shortage contributes to the complexity of bacterial adaptation to the host environment, it is critical to use model systems that mimic fundamental features of -related diseases in humans.

Department of Gastroenterology, The Affiliated Hospital to Qingdao University, Qingdao, China.
Background And Aims: As the main type of pancreatic diabetes, patients with new diabetes after chronic pancreatitis are often difficult to manage and have poor prognosis. This study aimed to figure out the association between dietary mineral intake and glucose metabolism with chronic pancreatitis.
Method: The study included 114 patients with chronic pancreatitis, who were grouped based on the sequence of onset for chronic pancreatitis and diabetes: normoglycaemia after chronic pancreatitis (NCP), type 2 diabetes (T2DM), and new-onset diabetes or pre-diabetes after chronic pancreatitis (NODCP).
A comparative analysis in monitoring 24-hour urinary copper in wilson disease: sampling on or off treatment?
Orphanet J Rare Dis

Internal Medicine IV, Department of Gastroenterology, University Hospital Heidelberg, INF 410, Heidelberg, 69120, Germany.
Background & Aim: Twenty-four-hour urinary copper excretion (24 h-UCE) is the standard diagnostic tool for dose adjustments in maintenance therapy in Wilson disease (WD) patients. Guidelines lack data if both variants of 24 h-UCE measurement (with or without 48 h of treatment interruption) are equally interpretable.
Methods: Eighty-four patients with a confirmed diagnosis of WD treated with chelators (50% of patients with D-Penicillamine and 50% with trientine) and with pairwise 24-h-UCE values on-therapy and off-therapy were included in the analysis.
