State Key Laboratory for Managing Biotic and Chemical Threats to the Quality and Safety of Agro-Products, Institute of Food Science, Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Hangzhou 310021, China. Electronic address:
In this experiment, the effects of different concentrations of cassava starch (CS) on the gel behavior of faba bean protein (FBP) were studied, focusing on the structural characteristics, gel characteristics and physical and chemical characteristics of the gel system. Specifically, with the increase of CS concentration from 4 % to 12 %, the morphology of the sample changed from fluid to gel solid. From the molecular structure, different concentrations of CS affected the secondary and tertiary structures of FBP protein, which made aromatic amino acids move to the surface of protein and promoted the transformation from α-helix to β-sheet.

Background: Studies have provided insights into the major challenges and needs of young children who survive cancer. Many such challenges are related to a lack of support during the patient's transition back to normal life. Survivorship programs are designed to help survivors cope with potential late effects of treatment and to provide psychosocial support.

Faculty of Medicine, Ovidius University of Constanta, 900470 Constanta, Romania.
: This is a prospective study. Atrophic vulvovaginitis (VVA), a prevalent condition resulting from estrogen deficiency after the menopause, is characterized by symptoms such as vaginal dryness, itching, burning, dyspareunia, and urinary discomfort. Standard treatment involves systemic estrogen replacement therapy (HRT) and localized estrogen treatments, such as estriol.

Infect Drug Resist
January 2025
Department of Clinical Laboratory, Tongde Hospital of Zhejiang Province, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, 310012, People's Republic of China.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the status of carbapenem-resistant strains of isolated from the Department of Microbiology, Zhejiang Tongde Hospital between September 2023 and February 2024, and to examine the in vitro antibacterial effect of Reduning combined with polymyxin on carbapenem-resistant (CRKP), which may provide evidence on the application of Reduning in the clinical anti-infective therapy.
Methods: A total of 50 different isolates of CRKP were collected, and the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of polymyxin, Reduning and polymyxin plus Reduning were measured with microbroth dilution method. Then, the fractional inhibition concentration index (FICI) was calculated.
The effects and predictive values of novel anthropometric parameters on uric acid levels and hyperuricemia in adults.

Article Synopsis
- Novel anthropometric indices, like the lipid accumulation product (LAP) and triglyceride glucose (TyG), show a stronger connection to metabolic issues compared to traditional measurements when assessing hyperuricemia.
- A large study in the Su-Wuxi-Chang area of China involving 14,834 adults analyzed various body metrics and lifestyle factors to understand their relationship with serum uric acid (SUA) levels.
- Findings indicate that LAP and TyG are independent risk factors for hyperuricemia in both genders, providing better predictive ability than traditional indices, suggesting these new measures could enhance management strategies for individuals with high SUA levels.
