AI Article Synopsis

  • This article discusses how artifacts like bias and error can affect the measurement of dissolved organic matter fluorescence due to sample handling and storage.
  • Data reveals that the type of filter used in water filtration can lead to inconsistencies in fluorescence measurements, highlighting differences between materials such as glass microfiber and various membrane filters.
  • It also examines how fluorescence indexes and UV absorbance of wastewater change over time under different storage temperatures and how chlorine disinfection impacts these measurements.

Article Abstract

Data presented in this data article show artifacts (bias and error) that influence fluorescence measurement of dissolved organic matter (DOM) due to samples handling and storage. Data show interferences in fluorescence measurements related to filtration of water by different filter materials, including 0.7 μm glass microfiber filter, 0.45 μm polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane, 0.45 μm cellulose nitrate membrane, and 0.45 μm polyethersulfone (PES) syringe filter. Data show also changes of several fluorescence indexes and UV absorbance measurements of wastewater organic matter respect to time under different storage conditions. Particularly, spectroscopic data were acquired using 0.7 μm filtered and unfiltered wastewater samples stored at different temperatures (i.e, room temperature, 4 °C, -20 °C) over a testing period of 21 days. Finally, data show the effect of chlorine disinfection (doses of 0.5-8 mg/L) in fluorescence measurements accomplished in samples from two secondary wastewater effluents. Data of this article are related to the publication [1]. Raw data are available in a public repository (https://doi.org/10.17632/pf86xs7ybk.1).

  • SARS-CoV-2 can spread from asymptomatic individuals, posing a greater risk to cancer patients who frequently visit healthcare facilities and are more vulnerable to severe COVID-19 outcomes.* -
  • A study of lung cancer patients revealed that over half of those with evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection were asymptomatic at diagnosis, and a significant number were never clinically diagnosed.* -
  • The findings indicate that older patients and those with early-stage lung cancer are more likely to have asymptomatic infections, highlighting the need for continued preventive measures in high-risk populations.*

Digital devices have gained popularity in the last 10 years as a tool for exercise prescription, the monitoring of daily physical activity, and nutrition for the management of a health-related parameter. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the use of digital devices to monitor exercise data in sedentary persons with HIV who exercise following an individualized activity pacing (AP) protocol on cardiorespiratory fitness body composition, blood lipid profile, and psychological parameters. Twenty-four PLWH were enrolled in an 18-week randomized, open-label, pilot AP exercise protocol.

Divergent Effects of the Nonselective Adenosine Receptor Antagonist Caffeine in Pre-Manifest and Motor-Manifest Huntington's Disease.

Department of Neurology, Huntington Center North Rhine-Westphalia, St. Josef-Hospital Bochum, Ruhr-University Bochum, Gudrunstraße 56, 44791 Bochum, Germany.

There is a controversy about potentially positive or negative effects of caffeine consumption on onset and disease progression of neurodegenerative diseases such as Huntington’s Disease (HD). On the molecular level, the psychoactive drug caffeine targets in particular adenosine receptors (AR) as a nonselective antagonist. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical effects of caffeine consumption in patients suffering from premanifest and motor-manifest HD.

Patients with phenylketonuria (PKU) are reliant on special low protein foods (SLPFs) as part of their dietary treatment. In England, several issues regarding the accessibility of SLPFs through the national prescribing system have been highlighted. Therefore, prescribing patterns and expenditure on all SLPFs available on prescription in England ( = 142) were examined.

  • The study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of interval laparoscopic appendectomy (ILA) for adult appendiceal mass (AAM) by analyzing data from 956 appendectomy cases between 2012 and 2018, focusing specifically on 49 AAM patients.
  • Among the 49 AAM cases, 34 underwent ILA, which was compared to 477 cases of uncomplicated appendicitis treated with laparoscopic appendectomy (LA), revealing that ILA had longer operative times but shorter hospital stays without other significant differences in outcomes.
  • The researchers found that a specific white blood cell (WBC) parameter (WBC day3/day0 ratio) could help predict the success of nonsurgical treatment before proceeding to ILA
