This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/our-business/policies/article-withdrawal). This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor, after consultation with the corresponding author Dr. Shiliang Liu due to image issues. The article reused several images from the author's paper published in Environmental Pollution 239 (2018) 53-68 (which has been retracted due to image issues): Figures 1c, 1d, 2a, 2b, 2c, 4a, 9a and 9b. The article also plagiarized part of a paper from other authors that had appeared in Plant Physiology, 150, 229-243 (2009). The images that were reused were Fig 5 a, 5c, 5e and 5 g. This was brought to the editors’ attention via a letter to the editor. One of the conditions of submission of a paper for publication is that authors declare explicitly that their work is original and has not appeared in a publication elsewhere. Re-use of any data should be appropriately cited. As such this article represents a severe abuse of the scientific publishing system. The scientific community takes a very strong view on this matter and apologies are offered to readers of the journal that this was not detected during the submission process.

Aim: This study aimed to explore the possible bidirectional interrelations between fructose-induced metabolic syndrome (MS) and apical periodontitis (AP).
Methodology: Twenty-eight male Wistar rats were distributed into four groups (n = 7, per group): Control (C), AP, Fructose Consumption (FRUT) and Fructose Consumption and AP (FRUT+AP). The rats in groups C and AP received filtered water, while those in groups FRUT and FRUT+AP received a 20% fructose solution mixed with water to induce MS.

Existing support systems for thermal pipeline trenches often fail to meet the specific needs of narrow strips, tight timelines, and short construction periods in urban environments. This study introduces a novel recyclable, non-embedded support system composed of corrugated steel plates, retractable horizontal braces, angle steel, and high-strength bolts designed to address these challenges. The system's effectiveness was validated through prototype testing and optimized using Abaqus finite element simulations.
