Front Pediatr

September 2024

Department of Clinical Epidemiology and Medical Statistics, Pediatric Translational Medicine Institute, Shanghai Children's Medical Center, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Increased screen time and sedentary behavior in children have raised concerns about negative impacts on their development, specifically precocious puberty.
  • A study involving 3,560 children in Qufu City found that higher sedentary time increased the risk of early puberty, particularly in girls, while screen exposure showed no significant association with early development.
  • The researchers suggest that there is a need for further studies to explore the causal relationship between these behaviors and precocious puberty.

Protein-based detection methods, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) and lateral flow strips, have been widely used for rapid, specific, and sensitive detection of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). However, the traditional ELISA method for the quantitative detection of GMOs has certain limitations. Herein, a quantum dot (QD)-based fluorescence-linked immunosorbent assay was developed using QDs as fluorescent markers for the detection of glyphosate-resistant protein (CP4-EPSPS) in the MON89788 soybean.

Radiopaque and Biocompatible PMMA Bone Cement Triggered by Nano Tantalum Carbide and Its Osteogenic Performance.

ACS Biomater Sci Eng

September 2024

College of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, Soochow University, Suzhou, Jiangsu 215123, China.

Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) bone cements have been widely used in orthopedics; thanks to their excellent mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and chemical stability. Barium sulfate and zirconia are usually added into PMMA bone cement to enhance the X-ray radiopacity, while the mechanical strength, radiopacity, and biocompatibility are not well improved. In this study, an insoluble and corrosion-resistant ceramic, tantalum carbide (TaC), was added into the PMMA bone cement as radiopacifies, significantly improving the mechanical, radiopaque, biocompatibility, and osteogenic performance of bone cement.

J Neurol

August 2024

Department of Neurology, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, No. 45, Changchun Street, Xicheng District, Beijing, 100053, China.

Stroke can lead to cardiac complications such as arrhythmia, myocardial injury, and cardiac dysfunction, collectively termed stroke-heart syndrome (SHS). These cardiac alterations typically peak within 72 h of stroke onset and can have long-term effects on cardiac function. Post-stroke cardiac complications seriously affect prognosis and are the second most frequent cause of death in patients with stroke.

Article Synopsis
  • The World Health Organization's ICOPE framework aims to address the healthcare needs of an aging population, but evidence on the needs of older adults and environmental support is limited.
  • A study in Western China surveyed 1200 adults aged 60 and older to assess ICOPE demand, health status, and geographic accessibility of medical resources, finding substantial demand among participants.
  • Results show that older adults in areas with low geographic accessibility have significantly higher ICOPE demand compared to those in regions with better access, indicating that accessibility is a crucial factor affecting their healthcare needs.

Article Synopsis
  • Hyperglycaemia leads to increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) and activates the TGF-β1/Smad pathway, contributing to diabetic nephropathy, with Indoxyl sulphate (IS) causing oxidative stress and inflammation in podocytes.
  • The study involved culturing rat podocytes and manipulating TGF-β1 levels—using siRNA silencing, overexpression, and a ROS inhibitor—to examine impacts on various protein expressions linked to kidney function.
  • Results showed that manipulating TGF-β1 and ROS levels significantly affected the expression of key proteins, indicating IS may decrease protective factors in podocytes, further implicating it in the progression of diabetic nephropathy.
