The sewage treatment system in this study was operated with only the first stage of a French system of vertical wetlands, composed of two units in parallel and running with an extended feeding cycle (7 days). This research sought to evaluate and relate continuous variables measured in situ (dissolved oxygen (DO), pH and redox potential) throughout the feeding cycle, with measurements at distinct heights along the filter vertical profile. Additionally, the influence of the surface organic sludge deposit was investigated. A close link between the hydraulic behaviour and the effluent quality was verified, with both being related to the batch volume and the instantaneous hydraulic loading rate. The drop in DO as the feed days progressed could be related to the loss of hydraulic conductivity. A thicker sludge layer decreased the aeration capacity of the filter. The effluent was observed to be aerated when percolating through the medium. DO and pH data suggested that nitrification varied along the filter depth, the batch duration and the feed cycle. The monitored parameters may be indicative of the behaviour of other parameters.

Background: Data on biosimilar use in pediatric inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are scarce compared to the status of studies in adults, resulting in limitations in its treatment. We compared effectiveness and safety of biosimilars versus originators in this population.
Methods: We used data from the French National Health Data System to identify children (less than 18 years old at treatment initiation) initiating treatment with a biosimilar or the originator infliximab or adalimumab for Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC), from first biosimilar launch (January 2015 and October 2018, respectively) to 31 December 2022.
The Asgard archaeal origins of Arf family GTPases involved in eukaryotic organelle dynamics.

The evolution of eukaryotes is a fundamental event in the history of life. The closest prokaryotic lineage to eukaryotes, the Asgardarchaeota, encode proteins previously found only in eukaryotes, providing insight into their archaeal ancestor. Eukaryotic cells are characterized by endomembrane organelles, and the Arf family GTPases regulate organelle dynamics by recruiting effector proteins to membranes upon activation.

In this article, we look at a selection of recent developments in various areas of endocrinology. We focus on advances in endocrine pharmacotherapy and endocrine surgery, addressing several areas: a) the thyroid safety of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP1) analogues; b) the efficacy of adrenal surgery for mild autonomous cortisol secretion; c) crinecerfont in the management of congenital adrenal hyperplasia in adults and children; d) paltusotin as a novel oral therapy for acromegaly and e) TransCon PTH (palopegteriparatide) as a novel therapy for chronic hypoparathyroidism.

LAM is a rare multi-cystic lung disease for which treatment with sirolimus is indicated in cases of moderate or severe lung disease or declining lung function. The aim of this study was to describe patients treated with sirolimus for LAM and their outcomes. This retrospective observational study was based on data from the French national health insurance data system (SNDS).

Background: France (FR) and New Caledonia (NC) are both French territories, one in Western Europe, the other as part of the Pacific Island Countries and Territories (PICTs). Despite schooling in similar educational systems, FR and NC adolescents develop distinct relationships with physical activity, which is influenced by the geographical-cultural and symbolic structures of their respective societies. This study explored the distribution of physical activity according to geographical culture and opportunity-temporal dimensions.
