AI Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore emergency management principles for severely injured patients with an Injury Severity Score (ISS) of 16 or higher.
- Researchers implemented the ATP principle, which focuses on immediate initial management by attending surgeons, teamwork coordination upon patient admission, and conducting emergency procedures simultaneously.
- Results indicated that using the ATP principle significantly reduced both the mortality rate and the time spent in the emergency department and before surgery, improving patient outcomes compared to traditional methods.
Article Abstract
Objective: To study the emergency management principles of severe trauma in hospital (injury severity score larger than or equal to 16).
Methods: We used "ATP principle" to manage severe traumatic patients. The ATP principle is composed of: 1) attending surgeons offering initial management (A); 2) teamwork commencement immediately after patients admitted to hospital (T); 3) parallel principle, ie, emergency resuscitation, evaluation and laboratory test performed simultaneously (P). Clinical effects before and after applying ATP principle were retrospectively analyzed and compared.
Results: During January 1, 2002 to December 31, 2003, 338 patients were treated without applying ATP principle, in which ISS was 25.9+/-6.4, 152 cases died with the mortality being 39.2%, and the time stayed in emergency department and the time to operation room after admission were (102.8+/-16.7) min, (140.3+/-20.6) min, respectively. During January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2005, 438 patients were treated based on ATP principle, in which ISS was 28.6+/-7.8, 87 cases died with the mortality being 19.9%, and the time in emergency department and the time to operation room after admission were (69.5+/-11.5) min, (89.6+/-9.3) min, respectively. ISS showed no significant difference between the two groups (P larger than 0.05) but the mortality, the time stayed in emergency department and the time to operation room after admission were greatly reduced and showed significant difference between the two groups (P less than 0.05).
Conclusions: Applying ATP principle to treat severe traumatic patients can shorten emergency treatment time in hospital and decrease mortality.

Article Synopsis
- Microbial metabolism is highly adaptable, allowing growth on varying carbon sources through fermentation and respiration.
- A mathematical framework was developed to analyze cellular resource allocation alongside redox chemistry, highlighting how metabolism balances carbon, electrons, and energy while treating biomass as both a product and catalyst for growth.
- The study found that proteins in microbes evolve to enhance redox matching, suggesting that genetic changes that may not benefit individual proteins can still be favored if they improve the overall fitness of the microbial population.

This paper explores the current analytical method validation practices, mainly derived from the International Council for Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) Q2(R1) guidelines (2005) and presents a strategy for adopting the latest guidelines for analytical chemistry in the pharmaceutical industry (ICH Q14/Q2(R2), USP ⟨1220⟩). These documents emphasize a lifecycle approach to method development, qualification, and validation, aligning with the holistic, risk-based control strategy central to future submission dossier structures. Key elements of the enhanced approach described in ICH Q14, including Analytical Target Profile (ATP), Knowledge Management, Analytical Risk Assessment, and Performance Monitoring, are discussed and integrated into a clear Analytical Quality by Design (AQbD) framework for analytical procedure development and lifecycle management.

Aims: This study aimed to evaluate image quality, myocardial perfusion, and diagnostic performance of a novel [F]F-labeled PET tracer, XTR004 PET, myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) compared with [N]Ammonia (NH) PET MPI.
Methods And Results: Forty-seven patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease (CAD) were prospectively enrolled to undergo one-day rest/ATP-stress XTR004 and NH electrocardiograph-gated PET imaging within 2 weeks. Among them, twenty-six patients underwent invasive coronary angiography (ICA), and nineteen were identified with flow-limited CAD (stenosis ≥ 70%).

The hexameric AAA+ disaggregase, Hsp104, collaborates with Hsp70 and Hsp40 via its autoregulatory middle domain (MD) to solubilize aggregated proteins. However, how ATP- or ADP-specific MD configurations regulate Hsp104 hexamers remains poorly understood. Here, we define an ATP-specific network of interprotomer contacts between nucleotide-binding domain 1 (NBD1) and MD helix L1, which tunes Hsp70 collaboration.
