Background: Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) increasingly is being used to treat critically ill patients with renal disease. CRRT removes waste products but also nutrients. Our understanding of trace element CRRT clearance has been limited by poor assay sensitivity. The development of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) allows for the measurement of CRRT trace element removal.
Methods: Continuous venovenous haemodialysis (CVVHD) transmembrane clearances of trace elements and urea were assessed using a bovine blood-based in vitro model using two different haemodialyser types. These findings were validated in 10 critically ill adult patients receiving continuous venovenous haemodiafiltration (CVVHDF). Calculated daily trace element loss was compared with a typical dose of daily trace element supplementation.
Results: The mean +/- SD in vitro CVVHD transmembrane clearances (ml/min) for the polysulfone haemodialyser were chromium 0.97 +/- 0.23, copper 0.47 +/- 0.18, manganese 4.6 +/- 3.6, selenium 1.2 +/- 0.63 and zinc 2.3 +/- 0.32 and for the cellulose diacetate haemodialyser chromium 1.54 +/- 0.91, copper 0.21 +/- 0.07, manganese 7.8 +/- 4.1, selenium 0.76 +/- 0.39 and zinc 2.7 +/- 0.37. The in vivo CVVHDF transmembrane clearances (ml/min) were chromium 5.4 +/- 2.4, copper 0.45 +/- 0.33, manganese 1.9 +/- 4.6, selenium 1.6 +/- 1.2, and zinc 4.0 +/- 1.3.
Conclusion: ICP-MS assays detected the five trace elements in the effluent of CVVHDF patients. Trace element CVVHD transmembrane clearance estimates for our in vitro model were supported by the in vivo CVVHDF findings. Calculated daily trace element loss attributed to CVVHD and CVVHDF with dialysate flow rates of 33.3 ml/min is less than what is provided in a daily dose of a trace element supplementation product.

Improving sulforaphane content in broccoli sprouts by applying Se: transcriptome profiling and coexpression network analysis provide insights into the mechanistic response.
Physiol Plant
January 2025
College of Horticulture, Hunan Agricultural University, Changsha, China.
Sulforaphane (SF) is a sulfur (S)-containing isothiocyanate found in cruciferous vegetables and is known for its potent anticancer properties. Broccoli sprouts, in particular, are considered safe and healthy dietary choices due to their high SF content and other beneficial biological activities, such as enhanced metabolite ingestion. The application of selenium (Se) is an excellent approach to enhance the abundance of SF.

Methods: The gene expression dataset GSE89632 was retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) group and the healthy group using the 'limma' package in R software and weighted gene co-expression network analysis. Gene ontology, kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway, and single-sample gene set enrichment analyses were performed to identify functional enrichment of DEGs.
Rational Synthesis of Highly Fluorescent N, S Co-Doped Carbon Dots Using Biogenic Creatinine for Cu Analysis in Drinking Water.
Luminescence

Analytical Chemistry Department, Faculty of Pharmacy, Helwan University, Cairo, Egypt.
Herein, highly fluorescent sulfur and nitrogen co-doped carbon dots (N, S-CDs) had been employed as a fluorescent probe to analyze Cu in drinking water. The biogenic creatinine is known to form a stable complex with Cu; hence, it was rationally selected as a bioinspired nitrogen substrate for the first time to enhance N, S-CDs selectivity towards Cu. Moreover, the literature was surveyed to guide the selection of sulfur and carbon sources to optimize N, S-CDs quantum yield (QY), so thiourea and disodium edetate are co-carbonized with biogenic creatinine at 270°C for 40 min and characterized using different techniques.

Background: Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) can study the susceptibility values of brain tissue which allows for noninvasive examination of local brain iron levels in both normal and pathological conditions.
Purpose: Our study compares brain iron deposition in gray matter (GM) nuclei between cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) patients and healthy controls (HCs), exploring factors that affect iron deposition and cognitive function.
Materials And Methods: A total of 321 subjects were enrolled in this study.
High taurocholic acid concentration induces ferroptosis by downregulating FTH1 expression in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy.

School of Medicine, The International Peace Maternity and Child Health Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, 200030, China.
Background: Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is the most common liver disorder associated with pregnancy and is usually diagnosed based on high serum bile acid. However, the pathogenesis of ICP is unclear. Ferroptosis has been reported as an iron-dependent mechanism of cell death.
