Sarcopenia and frailty in critical illness.
Curr Opin Clin Nutr Metab Care
March 2025
Division of Human Nutrition and Health, Wageningen University & Research, Wageningen.
Purpose Of Review: Sarcopenia and frailty are common conditions, associated with worse clinical outcomes during critical illness. Recent studies on sarcopenia and frailty in ICU patients are presented in this review, aiming to identify accurate diagnostic tools, investigate the effects on clinical and functional outcomes, and propose possible effective interventions.
Recent Findings: The recent change of the sarcopenia definition underlines the importance of muscle strength over mass, this is however challenging to assess in ICU patients.

Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, The People's Hospital of Leshan, Leshan, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: The occurrence and progression of hepatolithiasis are related to inflammatory reactions and immune proteins. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between systemic immune index (SII) in recurrence-free survival (RFS), as well as the incidence of severe postoperative complications in hepatolithiasis patients.
Patients And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 177 patients with hepatolithiasis.
Screening and Identification of Biocontrol Bacteria for Anthracnose in Mahonia eurybracteata Fedde.
J Basic Microbiol

School of Pharmacy, Guizhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Guiyang, Guizhou, China.
Mahonia eurybracteata exhibits characteristics related to heat dissipation, nutritional supplementation, and possesses antimicrobial and anticancer properties. Despite its widespread cultivation through artificial means, the detrimental impact of anthracnose on its growth has led to extensive reliance on chemical pesticides for disease control. Unscientific pesticide application and the use of outdated spraying techniques contribute to the presence of pesticide residues in both plants and the environment, thereby posing potential risks.

BMC Res Notes
March 2025
Department of Medical Laboratory Sciences, College of Health Sciences, Addis Ababa University, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Background: Most African countries, including Ethiopia, have not developed local well-defined reference intervals (RIs) for immuno-hematological testes in terms of pregnant women. As a result, we were using reference intervals derived from non-Africans. This is not appropriate because CD4 + T cell counts (CD4 count) are affected by several factors including ethnic and environmental factors.
