Introduction: Hyponatremia is a common electrolyte disturbance in critically ill patients. Management of intensive care unit patients with concurrent hyponatremia and renal failure requiring dialysis is challenging especially with regional citrate anticoagulation, which may cause excessive rise of serum [Na ]. We described the first and successful modified continuous veno-venous hemodialysis (CVVHD) regimen using regional citrate anticoagulation.

Method: A mathematical model was developed to predict serum [Na ] change during CVVHD. Our in-house CVVHD regimen using regional citrate anticoagulation was modified to slow down the rise of serum [Na ] by both modifying the dialysate solution and modifying the circuit.

Result: Five out of six patients had gradual serum [Na ] correction not exceeding the daily limit. None of them developed osmotic demyelination syndrome.

Conclusion: We concluded that regional citrate anticoagulation, with proper modification, is safe and effective for patients with concomitant renal failure requiring hemodialysis.

Previous studies have shown that milk citrate predicted by milk mid-infrared (MIR) spectra is strongly affected by a few genomic regions. This study aimed to explore the effect of weighted single-step GBLUP on the accuracy of genomic prediction (GP) for MIR-predicted milk citrate in early-lactation Holstein cows. A total of 134,517 test-day predicted milk citrate collected within the first 50 DIM on 52,198 Holstein cows from the first 5 parities were used.

Objective: To elucidate the metabolic mechanisms by which acteoside (ACT) isolated from alleviates cancer-related fatigue (CRF) in a murine model of colon cancer with cachexia.

Methods: BALB/c mice inoculated with C26 colon cancer cells were treated with paclitaxel (PTX, 10 mg/kg) and ACT (100 mg/kg) alone or in combination for 21 days. Fatigue-associated behaviors, tumor inhibition rate, and skeletal muscle morphology assessed by hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining and electron microscopy were evaluated.

Blueberries are the most popular small berries, in order to solve the problem of unbalanced blueberry resources in different regions of China. In this study, 18 blueberries were analyzed by chromatography and mass spectrometry for 9 soil elements, 6 anthocyanins, 7 phenolic acids, 9 organic acids, and 12 flavonoids. The result showed that blueberry physico-chemical indicators were significantly variable across production regions by Wenn and volcano maps, chlorogenic acid, ascorbic acid, citric acid, catechin were the main antioxidant active components, soil pH was significantly correlated with low content of anthocyanins and organic acids, soil elements were not significantly correlated with fruits antioxidant activity by the network correlation analysis.

Low phosphorus (P) use efficiency significantly impacts rice yields. An environmentally friendly approach to increase phosphorus absorption and utilization in rice involves the exploration of phosphorus-solubilizing fungal resources. This study aimed to isolate and characterize fungal strains from the rice rhizosphere and assess their phosphate solubilization capabilities, plant-growth-promoting (PGP) traits, and mechanisms involved.
