: , or star fruit, is a shrub known for its medicinal properties, especially due to bioactive metabolites identified in its roots and fruit with anti-cancer activity. However, the biological effects of its leaves remain unexplored. This study aimed to assess the effects of ethanolic extract from leaves on triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), an aggressive subtype lacking specific therapy.

This study reports on the development of a highly sensitive non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor based on a two-dimensional TiCT/MWCNT-OH nanocomposite for the detection of paraoxon-based pesticide. The synergistic effect between the TiCT nanosheet and the functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes enhanced the sensor's conductivity and catalytic activity. The nanocomposite demonstrates superior electrochemical and electroanalytical performance compared to the pristine TiCT and MWCNT-OH in detecting paraoxon-ethyl in fruit samples (green and red grapes), with a linear response range from 0.

In this study, residues of 10 neonicotinoid insecticides were tested with 143 fresh samples of using the QuEChERS method combined with UPLC-MS/MS. Based on the residue results, the point estimation method was used to assess dietary risks for adults and children, and the cumulative risk was assessed according to the hazard index () and relative potency factor () methods. The results showed that 71 out of 143 samples of fresh sold in Hainan tested positive for neonicotinoid insecticides, with a detection rate of 49.

, as an edible and medicinal macrofungus, represents a high source of polyphenols with considerable antioxidant activities. However, due to the significant differences in polyphenol content and bioactivity caused by different cultivation substrates, its antioxidant mechanism has not been fully determined. In this paper, five groups of fruiting bodies were collected from cultivation substrates from different areas.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is prevalent among elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The association between dietary patterns and CKD in elderly T2DM patients remains understudied. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between dietary patterns and CKD in elderly Chinese patients with T2DM.
