Chemical investigation on the 95% ethanol extract of green walnut husks of Maxim. led to the isolation of two new diarylheptanoid compounds, including Juglanin K () and Myricananin I (), together with ten known compounds (). Their structures were elucidated by extensive analyses of comprehensive spectroscopic methods. The isolated compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activities against and . The results showed that compound had moderate antibacterial activity with the MIC values of 0.313 and 0.156 mg/mL, respectively. compounds , - and showed weakly antibacterial activities against and with the MIC values of 0.625-2.5 mg/mL.

Nanoparticles are attracting attention for their potential therapeutic applications, particularly in cancer therapy, underscoring their importance in medicine. Cadmium sulfide nanoparticles, known for their robust catalytic and optical properties, are classified as chalcogenides and show promise for cancer diagnosis and treatment. Neuroblastoma, a common solid tumor in childhood, poses a significant health threat with different outcomes depending on its biological subtype.

Background: Peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) has been used for over 50 years to treat chronic pain by delivering electrical pulses through small electrodes placed near targeted peripheral nerves those outside the brain and spinal cord. Early PNS systems often required invasive neurosurgical procedures. However, since 2015, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved percutaneously implanted PNS leads and neurostimulators offering a much less invasive, non-opioid option for managing recalcitrant chronic pain.

The environmental implications of utilizing walnut shells (WSs) as a material for energy storage are complex, balanced between advancing technologies and improving efficiency. This review aims to address, for the first time, environmental concerns and health effects associated with this material by conducting an in-depth analysis of carbon materials derived from waste management systems. Beginning with a reevaluation of the structural characteristics, cellular morphology, and physicochemical properties of WSs, this study explores their potential for the efficient synthesis of carbon.

In northwest China, changes in cultivation patterns and the scarcity of preferred hosts have forced to feed on the marginal host walnut (). However, the mechanisms allowing this adaptation remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated the behavioral, physiological, and molecular mechanisms underlying the local adaptation of this pest to walnut fruits.
