Changes of b2-microglobulin and electrolytes in different stages of COPD and their value in evaluating prognosis.
J Med Biochem

Central South University, Zhuzhou Hospital Affiliated to Xiangya School of Medicine, Department 2 of Respiratory and Critical Medicine, Zhuzhou, China.
Background: To investigate the changes of b2-microglobulin and electrolyte in different stages of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and the value of evaluating prognosis.
Methods: A retrospective study was undertaken on 120 patients diagnosed with COPD and treated at our respiratory department between February 1, 2020, and January 31, 2023. These patients were classified into three groups based on the GOLD classification: mild (FEV1 > 81%), moderate (51% < FEV1 ≤ 80%), and severe (FEV1 ≤ 50%).
Response of an obligate CAM plant to competition and increased watering intervals.

College of Geography and Environment, Shandong Normal University, Jinan, China.
Climate change has exacerbated precipitation variability, profoundly impacting vegetation dynamics and community structures in arid ecosystems. There remains a notable knowledge gap regarding the ecological effects of altered precipitation on crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants and their interactions with other photosynthetic types. This study investigated the response of the typical obligate CAM plant Orostachys fimbriata to extended watering intervals (WI4-WI8) and various competitive patterns (M-M) with the C grass Melilotus officinalis and the C grass Setaria viridis through greenhouse experiments.

Clinical Division and Laboratory of Intensive Care Medicine, Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, KU Leuven, 3000, Leuven, Belgium.
Background: As compared to withholding parenteral nutrition (PN) until one week after intensive care unit (ICU) admission, Early PN prolonged ICU dependency in the EPaNIC randomized controlled trial (RCT). The Refeeding RCT showed improved outcome by temporary macronutrient restriction in ICU patients developing refeeding hypophosphatemia, defined as a phosphate decrease of > 0.16 mmol/L to levels < 0.

Neurological Disorder Center, Department of Cerebrovascular Disease, Suining Central Hospital, Sichuan, 629000, China.
Background: Hyponatremia (< 135 mmol/L) is the most common electrolyte disturbance in patients with stroke. However, few studies have reported the relationship between hyponatremia at admission and outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) treated with mechanical thrombectomy (MT). This study is aimed to explore the association between hyponatremia and clinical outcomes following MT.

Department of Physics, Faculty of Basic Sciences, Shahed University, Tehran, Iran.
The effects of low-intensity ultrasound on plants such as piezoelectric and ultrasonic water baths, on plants have been extensively studied. However, the specific effect of airborne ultrasound on plant cells has yet to be reported. The present study was conducted to elucidate the physiological responses of plant cells to airborne US.
