To prevent water scarcity, wastewater must be discharged to the surface or groundwater after being treated. Another method is to reuse wastewater in some areas after treatment and evaluate it as much as possible. In this study, it is aimed to recover and reuse the caustic (sodium hydroxide, NaOH) used in the recycling of plastic bottles from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) washing wastewater.

Middle-aged and older adults with chronic diseases are more likely to encounter sleep difficulty and have a reduced Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), but there is little research on their possible mechanisms. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to explore how sleep difficulty mediates the impact of chronic diseases on the HRQoL of middle-aged and older adults. The survey data were from a cross-sectional study carried out in 2019 in Hangzhou, China.

Computational nuclear oncology for precision radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) is a new frontier for theranostic treatment personalization. A key strategy relies on the possibility to incorporate clinical, biomarker, image-based, and dosimetric information in theranostic digital twins (TDTs) of patients to move beyond a one-size-fits-all approach. The TDT framework enables treatment optimization by real-time monitoring of the real-world system, simulation of different treatment scenarios, and prediction of resulting treatment outcomes, as well as facilitating collaboration and knowledge sharing among health care professionals adopting a harmonized TDT.
