leaves are highly rich in dihydromyricetin. They have been used to make tea in China for centuries. Dihydromyricetin has many potential applications in foods and medicine. This are because it has five phenolic hydroxyl groups. However, the hydroxylases involving the biosynthesis of dihydromyricetin have not been identified and characterized. In this study, a series of hydroxylases genes, including flavanone 3-hydroxylase (F3H), flavonoid 3'-hydroxylase (F3'H), flavonoid 3',5'-hydroxylase (F3'5'H), and cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR), were identified after RNA sequencing. The full-length CDSs of , , , and genes were amplified from the cDNA library of leaves. The aforementioned enzymes were expressed and verified in . Through the substrate specificity assay, the functional F3'H, F3'5'H, and CPR in were identified. The dihydromyricetin hydroxylation process in was successfully identified. We found that substantial carbon flux occurred through the Naringenin (NAR)-Eriodictyol (ERI)-Dihydroquercetin (DHQ)-Dihydromyricetin (DHM) and NAR-Dihydrokaempferol (DHK)-DHQ-DHM pathways. This study provides some reference for the development and utilization of the germplasm resources and molecular breeding of .

Background: This study analyzed trends in the frequencies and rates of natural deaths associated with sport and recreation activities in Québec, Canada, from January 2006 to December 2019, and investigated their etiology and characteristics.
Methods: This descriptive retrospective study utilized data from coroner reports, as well as autopsy and police reports. Activity-specific incidence rates were calculated using participation data from the (ÉBARS) and Canadian census population data.

Variation in the incidence, survival rate and factors associated with survival after cardiac arrest in China is reported. Some studies have tried to fill the knowledge gap regarding the epidemiology of cardiac arrest in China but were unable to identify reasons for the reported differences. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to describe Chinese management of cardiac arrest, particularly from the perspective of compression, ventilation, monitoring, treatment, and extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

The experience of performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can cause post-traumatic stress symptoms that negatively impact healthcare providers and reduced their clinical competency. This two-phase mixed-methods was conducted to investigate the factors that cause post-traumatic disorder (PTSD) in healthcare providers who perform CPR. Phase 1 included a survey with a trauma screening questionnaire (TSQ).

Background: Sepsis is a severe complication in leukemia patients, contributing to high mortality rates. Identifying early predictors of sepsis is crucial for timely intervention. This study aimed to develop and validate a predictive model for sepsis risk in leukemia patients using machine learning techniques.

Introduction According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally, accounting for approximately 17 million deaths annually, with sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) as a significant contributor to this alarming statistic. SCA, the abrupt loss of heart function, is a critical medical emergency that requires early recognition and immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for the effective resuscitation of victims. Various studies have shown a low level of knowledge regarding CPR in the community.
