This paper studied the surface settlement, temperature, and gas production of land-filling pile, and the physical and chemical properties of aged refuse in 5-year-old semi-aerobic and anaerobic landfills. The pile's surface settlement and its volume reduction rate were significantly higher in semi-aerobic than in anaerobic landfill; and the treatment with leachate recycling brought larger uneven settlement than the treatment with water recycling. The temperature of anaerobic landfill pile (25.6 degrees C) was slightly higher than that of semi-aerobic landfill file (24.8 degrees C), but the difference was not significant. During land-filling period, the O2 concentration in semi-aerobic landfill pile was significantly higher than that in anaerobic one, while the CH4 concentration was in reverse. After 5 years land-filling, the contents of easily degradable organic matters in aged refuse, such as kitchen refuses and papers, decreased dramatically, while the contents of plastics, glasses, bricks, and woods increased. In addition, the contents of organic matters and nutrients in aged refuse were higher than those in typical southern China soils, and the concentrations of heavy metals except chromium in anaerobic landfill aged refuse were not beyond the grade three of Environmental Quality Standards for Soils (GB 15618-1995).

Department of Respiratory Medicine, Comprehensive Cancer Center, International Medical Center, Saitama Medical University, 1397-1 Yamane, Hidaka-City, Saitama, 350-1298, Japan.
Purpose: Nivolumab plus ipilimumab (Nivo-Ipi) combination therapy is an effective first-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, its effectiveness and feasibility in elderly patients (aged ≥ 75 years) remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of first-line Nivo-Ipi therapy in elderly patients with NSCLC.

University of Health Sciences, Ankara Training and Research Hospital, Department of Emergency Medicine, Ankara, Turkey.
Aim: This study aims to evaluate the impact of serum magnesium (Mg) level on hospitalization and 28-day mortality in a nonspecific geriatric patient population.
Method: This single-center retrospective and observational clinical study involved patients aged over 70 years who presented to the emergency department for any complaint. Those whose Mg levels were not assessed and those who presented due to trauma, treated in another hospital before coming to our hospital, presented in cardiopulmonary arrest, refused treatment and/or left the hospital without permission, and were referred to another hospital were excluded from this study.
Patient Voices: Multimethod Study on the Feasibility of Implementing Electronic Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in a Comprehensive Cancer Center.
JMIR Cancer
January 2025
Scientific Directorate, Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori di Milano, Milano, Italy.
Background: "Patient Voices" is a software developed to promote the systematic collection of electronic patient-reported outcome measures (ePROMs) in routine oncology clinical practice.
Objective: This study aimed to assess compliance with and feasibility of the Patient Voices ePROM system and analyze patient-related barriers in an Italian comprehensive cancer center.
Methods: Consecutive patients with cancer attending 3 outpatient clinics and 3 inpatient wards were screened for eligibility (adults, native speakers, and being able to fill in the ePROMs) and enrolled in a quantitative and qualitative multimethod study.
Age Is Just a Number? A Retrospective Review of Cause of Death in Patients 85 Years and Over Receiving Lung Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy.
J Med Imaging Radiat Oncol

Icon Cancer Centre Gold Coast University Hospital, Southport, Queensland, Australia.
Introduction: Patients aged > 85 years are under-represented in research that has established stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) as the standard of care in early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) not suitable for or refusing surgery. With an ageing population in Australia, it is important to assess SBRT and cause of death (COD) in elderly patients receiving curative intent lung SBRT.
Methods: This is a multi-centre retrospective review of eligible patients treated across Australia from 2016 to 2022 with curative intent lung SBRT for early stage primary NSCLC, and aged 85 years or over.

School of Health and Allied Sciences, Pokhara University, Kaski, Nepal.
Background: Minimum acceptable diet (MAD) intake is crucial for optimizing the growth and development of children aged 6 to 23 months. However, little is known about the factors influencing MAD intake among children of Sudurpaschim. This study, therefore, aims to assess the prevalence of minimum acceptable diet intake and associated factors among children aged 6-23 months in Sudurpaschim Province of Nepal.
