The recoil fragments from an alpha-emitting source may cause significant detector contamination. The simplest method to avoid the problem is to use a source coating. The influence of Mylar film coatings of different thickness on the resolution, efficiency and minimum detection level of an alpha spectrometry system was investigated. No significant deterioration of the system characteristics was observed when using thin films of about 0.25 mg/cm2.

[Berberine ameliorates coronary artery endothelial cell injury in Kawasaki disease through complement and coagulation cascades].
Zhongguo Dang Dai Er Ke Za Zhi

Department of Pediatrics, Third People's Hospital of Longgang District of Shenzhen, Shenzhen, Guangdong 518020, China.
Objectives: To explore the role of berberine (BBR) in ameliorating coronary endothelial cell injury in Kawasaki disease (KD) by regulating the complement and coagulation cascade.
Methods: Human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC) were divided into a healthy control group, a KD group, and a BBR treatment group (=3 for each group). The healthy control group and KD group were supplemented with 15% serum from healthy children and KD patients, respectively, while the BBR treatment group received 15% serum from KD patients followed by the addition of 20 mmol/L BBR.

Chemical Insights Research Institute, UL Research Institutes, Marietta, Georgia, USA.
Background: Since their inception, electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) have gained increasing popularity, sparking a vaping epidemic among adolescents in the US and globally. Several ENDS safety concerns have emerged as device features and formats that contribute to heavy metal exposure and toxicity continue to evolve and outpace regulatory efforts.
Objectives: Our objective was to integrate ENDS emission profiles with salivary proteome and metabolome data to characterize exposure factors that may influence adverse vaping-mediated health outcomes.
Gut Microbiome and Metabolite Characteristics Associated With Different Clinical Stages in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients.
Cancer Manag Res

Lung Cancer Center, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, People's Republic of China.
Objective: Our research has pinpointed the gut microbiome's role in the progression of various pathological types of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Nonetheless, the characteristics of the gut microbiome and its metabolites across different clinical stages of NSCLC are yet to be fully understood. The current study seeks to explore the distinctive gut flora and metabolite profiles of NSCLC patients across varying TNM stages.
