Objective: To assess factors influencing Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) risk, incorporating maternal demographics, behaviors, medical conditions, pregnancy-related factors, and PM2.5 speciation pollutants exposures.
Methods: Using Florida de-identified birth records, logistic regression analyses were conducted to assess associations between maternal exposure to PM2.

Purpose: A relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD) is a characteristic clinical sign of optic neuritis (ON). Here, we systematically evaluated ultrasound pupillometry (UP) for the detection of an RAPD in patients with ON, including a comparison with infrared video pupillometry (IVP), the gold standard for objective pupillometry.
Materials And Methods: We enrolled 40 patients with acute (n = 9) or past (n = 31) ON (ON+), 31 patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) without prior ON, and 50 healthy controls (HC) in a cross-sectional observational study.

Parasitoid wasps act as natural biological control agents for several harmful insect species. However, there is a lack of information regarding the exogenous RNA viruses that infect parasitoids and may contribute to the success of their parasitism strategies. This study aimed to investigate the presence, abundance, and replication of known exogenous viruses in two parasitoid wasp species and their corresponding preys.

The agricultural productivity and world-wide food security is affected by different phytopathogens, in which Fusarium is more destructive affecting more than 150 crops, now got resistance against many fungicides that possess harmful effects on environment such as soil health, air pollution, and human health. Fusarium fungicide resistance is an increasing concern in agricultural and environmental contexts, requiring a thorough understanding of its causes, implications, and management approaches. The mechanisms of fungicide resistance in Fusarium spp.

The production of hydrogen (H) fuel through electrocatalysis is emerging as a sustainable alternative to conventional and environmentally harmful energy sources. However, the discovery of cost-effective and efficient materials for this purpose remains a significant challenge. In this study, we explore the potential of the transition-metal-substituted YNS MXene as a promising candidate for hydrogen production through the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER).
