Objective: This study aimed to assess the utility of two-dimensional (2D) ultrasonography in diagnosing and classifying fetal type I persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC).
Methods: The diameter (D) of the coronary sinus (CS) was measured in the four-chamber view and the diameter (D) of the PLSVC was measured in the three-vessel trachea view; the ratio of the diameter of CS to PLSVC (D/D) and the ratio of gestational week (GA)/D and GA/D were calculated to analyze the correlation between measurement and classification of type I PLSVC.
Results: Compared the parameter of Ia and Ib Group, the differences in D, D, GA/D, and GA/D were statistically significant (P < .05). D and D are independent factors for the differential diagnosis of type I PLSVC, with odds ratios (OR) of 5.397 and 2.661, respectively, and both are statistically significant (P < .05). The nomogram model exhibited superior performance in diagnosing type I PLSVC, with the highest AUC value of 0.853, a sensitivity of 96.55%, and a specificity of 66.25%.
Conclusion: The combination of D, D, GA/D, and GA/D is valuable for diagnosing and classifying fetal type I PLSVC, demonstrating significant clinical application value.

Landfill leachate characteristics vary depending on the type of waste facilities accept, such as municipal solid waste (MSW), construction and demolition debris (CDD) and MSW incineration (MSWI) ash. Optimizing disposal and treatment practices requires a thorough understanding of the behaviour of leachates from different classifications of refuse. This study provides a critical analysis of variation in leachate quality among over 80 sites based on landfill category: MSW, bulky debris, MSWI ash and MSW-MSWI ash co-disposal.

The Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench, commonly known as okra, is increasingly cultivated in Indonesia due to its recognition as a functional food source. Current efforts in breeding new okra varieties are focused on high productivity, yet minimal information is available regarding selection criteria.

Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the major global concerns in the current scenario. Mass-gathering events in fast-developing and densely populated areas may contribute to antibiotic resistance. Despite meticulous planning and infrastructure development, the effect of mass gatherings on microbial ecosystems and antibiotic resistance must be investigated.
