Atmospheric pollution affects the morphoanatomical and physiological responses of plants in urban Atlantic Forest remnants.
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int

Departamento de Biologia Vegetal, Universidade Federal de Viçosa, Viçosa, MG, 36570-900, Brazil.
The Metropolitan Area of São Paulo (MASP) in southern Brazil is impacted by high ozone levels posing significant threats to its urban forests and the Atlantic Forest remnants. These green areas, covering 540 km and constituting 30% of MASP's territory, necessitate an urgent assessment of air pollution impacts on their flora. Our study investigates the effects of atmospheric pollution on the morphoanatomical and physiological responses of four native tree species (Alchornea sidifolia, Casearia sylvestris, Guarea macrophylla, and Machaerium nyctitans) across two Atlantic Forest remnants in MASP.

Objectives: To investigate the efficacy of prophylactic embolization of the internal iliac artery (IIA) or superior gluteal artery (SGA) before open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) in reducing intraoperative blood loss (IBL) in hemodynamically stable patients with complex acetabular fractures.
Materials And Methods: A total of 136 patients with complex acetabular fractures were retrospectively included and divided into the prophylactic transcatheter arterial embolization (PTAE) group and non-PTAE group, depending on whether ipsilateral IIA or SGA was embolized using coils within 3 days before ORIF. Demographic characteristics, injury severity score (ISS), fracture classification, and intraoperative and postoperative data were compared between the two groups.
Minimally invasive internal splinting technique for acute closed Achilles tendon rupture.
J Orthop Surg Res
January 2025
Department of Orthopedics, Jingzhou Hospital Affiliated to Yangtze University, Jingzhou Hubei, 434020, China.
Background: Although non-surgical and surgical approaches have been developed to repair acute closed Achilles tendon ruptures, the medical community still lacks a definitive consensus on which approach is superior. This study describes a new minimally invasive internal splinting technique combined with knotless anchors for the treatment of 22 patients with acute closed Achilles tendon rupture.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted involving 22 patients with acute closed Achilles tendon rupture who were treated with a minimally invasive internal splinting technique at Jingzhou Hospital of Yangtze University between January 2022 to October 2023.
Focal adhesion kinase mediates microvascular leakage and endothelial barrier dysfunction in ischemia-reperfusion injury.
Microvasc Res
January 2025
University of South Florida, Morsani College of Medicine, James A Haley Veterans' Hospital, United States of America. Electronic address:
Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury occurs under various surgical or disease conditions, where tissue hypoxia followed by reoxygenation results in the production of oxygen radicals and inflammatory mediators. These substances can target the endothelial barrier, leading to microvascular leakage. In this study, we induced intestinal I/R injury in mice by occluding the superior mesenteric artery, followed by removing the clamp to resume blood circulation.

Department of Ultrasound, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University, Tai'an, China.
Objective: Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), a common complication in traumatic brain injuries (TBI), can lead to optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) enlargement and flow spectrum changes from the internal carotid artery (ICA) to middle cerebral artery (MCA). This study will investigate the use of Cervical-Cerebral Arterial Ultrasound (CCAU) for non-invasive ICP assessment and evaluating the related indices' clinical utility in TBI patients with decompressive craniotomy (DC).
Methods: ONSD and flow spectrum changes were measured within 24 h after DC in 106 patients via ultrasonic ONSD measurement and CCAU, simultaneously.
