Introduction: Bryophytes are non-vascular plants that appeared on Earth before vascular plants. More than 24,000 species are reported worldwide, and only a small proportion have been studied. However, part of their biosynthetic potential has been unveiled and more than 1,600 terpenoids have been detected and identified.

Currently, radiologists must interpret large quantities of images and identify diseases on a daily basis. The minimization of errors is crucial for high-quality diagnostic imaging and optimal patient care. Brain imaging is frequently used in clinical practice; however, radiologists are prone to overlook some regions in brain imaging and make perceptual errors, thus leading to missed diagnoses.

Natural attenuation represents a significant ecosystem function for mitigating the quantity and toxicity of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) through both abiotic and biotic dissipation processes. This study systematically investigated abiotic and biotic dissipation of phenanthrene (Phe) and benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) in four soils over 360 days, using CSIA to quantitatively analyze δ³C changes and demonstrate biodegradation. The results indicated that extractable Phe was primarily attenuated via biodegradation (65% - 81%), as revealed by CSIA, with the δ³C changes ranging from 2.

Poor muscle quality (MQ) is a hidden health condition in obesity, commonly disregarded and underdiagnosed, associated with poor health-related outcomes. This narrative review provides an in-depth exploration of MQ in obesity, including definitions, available assessment methods and challenges, pathophysiology, association with health outcomes, and potential interventions. MQ is a broad term that can include imaging, histological, functional, or metabolic assessments, evaluating beyond muscle quantity.
