Background: Urinary retention in obstructed male cats leads to changes in blood and urine compounds, which, combined with the time of obstruction, are linked to the worsening of the animal's clinical status.
Aim: This study aimed to describe the primary laboratory changes in male cats with urethral obstruction (UO).
Methods: Medical records of 386 male cats diagnosed with UO and treated at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Zootechnics (FMVZ), UNESP-Botucatu, between 2010 and 2020 were reviewed.

This study investigates the removal of total organic carbon (TOC) from paper mill wastewater using air dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma, combined with various persulfate sources, namely potassium peroxymonosulfate (PMS), potassium peroxydisulfate (PDS), and sodium persulfate (SPS). Mechanistic insights into the activation of plasma-PDS and -PMS were obtained through quenching experiments and electron spin resonance (ESR) techniques. The addition of persulfate to air DBD plasma increased TOC removal kinetics by approximately 1.

In order to broaden the working voltage (1.23 V) of aqueous supercapacitors, a high-performance asymmetric supercapacitor with a working voltage window reaching up to 2.1 V is assembled using a nanorod-shaped molybdenum trioxide (MoO) negative electrode and an activated carbon (AC) positive electrode, as well as a sodium sulfate-ethylene glycol ((NaSO-EG) electrolyte.

The P2-NaMnO cathode material has long been constrained by phase transitions induced by the Jahn-Teller (J-T) effect during charge-discharge cycles, leading to suboptimal electrochemical performance. In this study, we employed a liquid phase co-precipitation method to incorporate Ti during the precursor MnO synthesis, followed by calcination to obtain NaTiMnO materials. We investigated the effects of Ti doping on the structure, morphology, Mn concentration, and Na diffusion coefficients of NaTiMnO.

A controversial aspect of pediatric septic shock management is corticosteroid therapy. Current guidelines do not recommend its use in forms responsive to fluids and inotropes but leave the decision to physicians in forms refractory to the first steps of therapy. Review of literature from January 2013 to December 2023 from online libraries Pubmed, Medline, Cochrane Library, and Scopus.
