In the context of climate change, reducing the environmental impact of agriculture has become increasingly critical. To ensure sustainable food production, it is essential to adopt cultivation techniques that maximize resource efficiency, particularly in water and nutrient usage. The Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) is one such hydroponic system, designed to optimize water and nutrient use, making it a valuable tool for sustainable agriculture.

Rationale & Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) populations face an elevated risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), yet many remain undertreated with statins for primary prevention of CVD despite meeting eligibility criteria. We examined trends in statin use for primary prevention among individuals with CKD before and after the release of the 2013 Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guideline recommending statin use for lipid management in selected adults with CKD.
Study Design: Cross-sectional time-trend analysis.

In this study, the structure, functionality, physicochemical property, emulsion storage stability, and rheological properties of soybean meal hydrolysate-proanthocyanidin (SMH-PC) conjugates in ternary complex with glucan, sodium alginate, or soybean polysaccharides were investigated. Following complexing, the proteins unfolded and their disordered structures positively promoted the emulsifying properties of ternary complexes. The SMH-PC-glucan complex showed the best antioxidant activity and the highest emulsifying activity index (94.

The neuropeptide F (NPF) signaling, comprising NPF and neuropeptide F receptor (NPFR), role in regulating insect behaviors and physiological processes. We cloned the genes encoding NPF and NPFR from Plutella xylostella, a notorious pest of cruciferous crops. Notably, the NPF gene produced two splicing variants, Px-NPF1 and Px-NPF2, with distinct expression patterns.
