Article Abstract

A simple, rapid, and efficient pretreatment method of mefentrifluconazole enantiomers in cereal samples was established by dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction coupled with ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (UHPLC-DAD). In this study, a novel ternary magnetic deep eutectic solvent (MDES) [octyltrimethylammonium bromide][cobalt chloride][acetic acid] was synthesized as the extractant. Acetic acid was used as the dispersant to promote the in situ dispersion of binary MDES [octyltrimethylammonium bromide][cobalt chloride]. The microdroplets of binary MDES containing mefentrifluconazole were separated by an external magnet. Device-assisted dispersion and time-consuming centrifugation steps were eliminated to ensure simplicity and rapidity of the pretreatment. Good linearity ranging from 0.01 μg g to 2 μg g was obtained. The extraction recovery varied from 82.9 to 95.0%. The limit of detection was 0.003 μg g. Finally, this established approach has been applied for the enantioselective detection of chiral mefentrifluconazole in corn, rice, wheat, millet, and sorghum samples.

Aims: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a common clinical finding associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Once LVH is diagnosed, defining its cause has crucial clinical implications. Artificial intelligence (AI) may allow significant progress in the automated detection of LVH and its underlying causes from cardiovascular imaging.

Background: The potential for early white matter hyperintensities(WMH) regression and associated contributory factors remains uncertain. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether WMH regress at early time of three months after minor ischemic stroke (MIS) or transient ischemic attack (TIA), while also identifying factors that may influence this outcome.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of a prospective subcohort from the CHANCE trial comprising individuals with MIS and TIA was conducted.

This case study highlights the use of cinematic rendering (CR) in preoperative planning for the excision of a cyst in the oral and maxillofacial region of a 60-year-old man. The patient presented with a firm, non-tender mass in the right cheek, clinically suspected to be an epidermoid cyst. Conventional imaging, including dental magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocols, confirmed the lesion's size, location, and benign nature.
