Background: In chronic kidney disease (CKD), determining energy expenditure is the precondition for recommending energy intake in nutrition management.

Objectives: We aimed to develop and validate a resting energy expenditure (REE) equation for patients with CKD.

Methods: This cross-sectional study enrolled 300 patients with CKD (stages 3-5) according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Stepwise linear regression analysis was used to derive a new REE equation (eREE-CKD) according to actual REE (aREE) measured using indirect calorimetry in the development dataset. The eREE-CKD value was then validated with aREE in the validation dataset and compared with values from existing equations obtained in general populations, namely, the Harris-Benedict, Mifflin, WHO, and Schofield equations in terms of bias, precision, and accuracy.

Results: The eREE-CKD equation: eREE-CKD (kcal) = (1 if male; 0 if female) × 106.0 - [1 if diabetes mellitus (DM); 0 if non-DM] × 51.6 - 4.7 × age (y) + 13.1 × weight (kg) + 645.5 (R2 = 0.779).The bias, precision, and accuracy (percentage of estimates that differed >20% from the measured REE) of the eREE-CKD equation were -0.4 (IQR: -29.8, 23.8) kcal, 98.4 (IQR: 79.5, 116.6) kcal, and 5.4%, respectively with indirect calorimetry as the reference method. Both bias and precision of the eREE-CKD were significantly better than the Harris-Benedict, WHO, and Schofield equations (P < 0.001) and similar to the Mifflin equation (P = 0.125 for bias and 0.268 for precision). Accuracy of the eREE-CKD was significantly better than the Harris-Benedict, WHO, Mifflin, and Schofield equations (P < 0.001). Bias, precision, and accuracy of the eREE-CKD equation were consistent when applied to subgroups categorized according to high-sensitivity C-reactive protein concentrations and CKD stages, respectively.

Conclusions: The eREE-CKD equation using age, sex, weight, and DM data could serve as a reliable tool for estimating REE in patients with CKD. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03377413.

The gram-negative, facultative anaerobic bacterium Morganella morganii is linked to a number of illnesses, including nosocomial infections and urinary tract infections (UTIs). A clinical isolate from a UTI patient in Bangladesh was subjected to high-throughput whole genome sequencing and extensive bioinformatics analysis in order to gather knowledge about the genomic basis of bacterial defenses and pathogenicity in M. morganii.

The impact of anions on electrooxidation of perfluoroalkyl acids by porous Magnéli phase titanium suboxide anodes.

Previous studies have indicated the great performance of electrooxidation (EO) to mineralize per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in water, but different anions presented in wastewater may affect the implementation of EO treatment in field applications. This study invetigated EO treatment of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), two representative perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs), using porous Magnéli phase titanium suboxide anodes in electrolyte solutions with different anions present, including NO3-, SO42-, CO32- and PO43-. The experiment results indicate that CO32- enhanced PFAS degradation, while NO3- suppressed the degradation reactions with its concentration higher than 10 mM.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitor Y27632 on bioenergetic capacity and resilience of corneal endothelial cells (CECs) under metabolic stress.

Methods: Bovine CECs (BCECs) were treated with Y27632 and subjected to bioenergetic profiling using the Seahorse XFp Analyzer. The effects on adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production through oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis were measured.

Phycobilisomes (PBS) are the major photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes in cyanobacteria and red algae. While the structures of PBS have been determined in atomic resolutions, how PBS are attached to the reaction centers of photosystems remains less clear. Here, we report that a linker protein (LcpA) is required for the attachment of PBS to photosystem II (PSII) in the cyanobacterium sp.

Light signal regulates endoreduplication and tomato fruit expansion through the SlPIF1a-SlTLFP8-SlCDKB2 module.

Light serves as an energy source for cell division and expansion during fruit development. Cell expansion significantly influences fruit size and is closely linked to endoreduplication, a unique cell cycle variation characterized by DNA replication without cytokinesis. Paradoxically, under conditions of ample photosynthates, light signaling suppresses cell expansion.
