The Taoge water system is located in the upstream of Taihu Lake basin and is characterized by its multi-connected rivers and lakes. In this paper, current analyses of hydrology, hydrodynamics and water pollution of Gehu Lake and Taige Canal are presented. Several technologies are proposed for pollution prevention and control, and water environmental protection in the Taihu Lake basin. These included water pollution control integration technology for the water systems of Gehu Lake, Taige Canal and Caoqiao River. Additionally, river-lake water quality and quantity regulation technology, ecological restoration technology for polluted and degraded water bodies, and water environmental integration management and optimization strategies were also examined. The main objectives of these strategies are to: (a) improve environmental quality of relative water bodies, prevent pollutants from entering Gehu Lake and Taige Canal, and ensure that the clean water after the pre-treatment through Gehu Lake is not polluted before entering the Taihu Lake through Taige Canal; (b) stably and efficiently intercept and decrease the pollution load entering the lake through enhancing the river outlet ecological system structure function and water self-purifying capacity, and (c) designate Gehu Lake as a regulation system for water quality and water quantity in the Taoge water system and thus guarantee the improvement of the water quality of the inflow into Taihu Lake.

Article Synopsis
  • LncRNAs play an important role in bladder cancer (BLCA), with this study focusing on how ferroptosis-related lncRNAs (DEFRlncRNAs) impact tumor growth and patient outcomes.
  • Researchers identified an 18-lncRNA signature that predicts patient prognosis and showed that altering the expression of specific lncRNAs like AL355353.2 and AL136084.3 affects cancer cell death in lab experiments.
  • The study found that AL136084.3 interacts with the protein NUPR1, suggesting a potential link in regulating cancer progression and providing insight into possible therapeutic targets.

Department of Radiotherapy, the Affiliated Changzhou No. 2 People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Changzhou Medical Center, Nanjing Medical University Changzhou 213003 P. R. China

Lead (Pb) pollution poses a significant threat to human health due to its potential accumulation through the food chain. In response to this challenge, an array of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) devices has been developed for the accurate and visualized detection of trace Pb, achieving an ultra-low limit of detection (LOD) of 9.8 pg L.

Article Synopsis
  • * Results show that summer has the worst water quality, primarily due to agricultural runoff and pollution, with chemical oxygen demand being the critical factor influencing chlorophyll-a concentrations.
  • * Seasonal changes revealed that microbial communities vary significantly, with winter showing a more complex network, and certain microbial species linked to nitrogen and phosphorus metabolism identified as indicators of water quality related to eutrophication.

Anodonta woodiana samples from Xidong Water Works and Mashan in Taihu Lake, Yiyang near Dongting Lake, and Taiping Harbor in Gehu Lake preserved in a "specimen bank" established for the "Freshwater Mussel Watch" monitoring program were used to determine the historical metal backgrounds from different waters in the present study. The elements Co, Ni, Mo, Cd, Al, Cr, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, As, Ba, and Pb were determined using A. woodiana from four lacustrine sites.

Due to climatic and hydrological changes and human activities, eutrophication and frequent outbreaks of cyanobacteria are prominent in the Jiangnan Plain basin of China. Therefore, building a suitable model to accurately predict the phosphorus concentration in surface water is of practical significance to prevent the above problems. This study built 10 models to predict the phosphorus element in the surface water of the river network in the Jiangnan Plain.
