Competition Between Ionic Current and Electronic Current: Regulation of TiO Nanotube Growth.

Titanium dioxide (TiO) nanotubes have been explored for applications in various fields, and their performance is influenced by their length. To investigate the factors affecting the length of anodic TiO nanotubes, samples were fabricated under different applied voltages and in electrolytes with varying poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) concentrations. The study found that the steady-state current density in the current density-time curve exhibits a strong linear relationship with nanotube length.

Causal relationships between metabolic syndrome, plasma metabolites, and female reproductive diseases: insights from a two-step mendelian randomization approach.

Background: Female reproductive diseases-including endometriosis (EMs), uterine fibroids (UFs), polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), eclampsia, ectopic pregnancy (EP), infertility, miscarriage, and ovarian aging-pose significant global health challenges. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized by a series of metabolic irregularities and has been linked to distinct plasma metabolomic profiles. Investigating the etiological connections among MetS, plasma metabolites, and female reproductive diseases is essential for devising effective prevention and treatment strategies.

Genome-wide identification and expression analyses of ABSCISIC ACID-INSENSITIVE 5 (ABI5) genes in Citrus sinensis reveal CsABI5-5 confers dual resistance to Huanglongbing and citrus canker.

Huanglongbing (HLB) and citrus canker are two major destructive bacterial diseases in the citrus industry caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas) and Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc), respectively. ABI5 transcription factors are crucial for plant growth and development as well as for responses to various abiotic and biotic stresses, including viruses and fungi.

Metabolic analysis of the mode of action and mode of resistance of fusidic acid against Staphylococcus aureus.

Understanding bacterial responses to antibiotics is essential for identifying resistance mechanisms and developing novel therapies. This study evaluated the resistance of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) to fusidic acid (FD) in 100 patients with skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs), revealing susceptibility to FD despite resistance to other antibiotics.

Mechanisms of Staphylococcus aureus Antibiotics Resistance Revealed by Adaptive Laboratory Evolution.

Infection caused by drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is a serious public health and veterinary concern. Lack of a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms underlying the emergence of drug-resistant strains, it makes S. aureus one of the most intractable pathogenic bacteria.

The daily minimum leaf turgor pressure can represent the water status of apple trees under drip irrigation.

Introduction: Accurate diagnosis of the water status of fruit trees is a prerequisite for precise irrigation. Measurement of leaf turgor pressure provides a means to explore the water utilization mechanisms of fruit trees and their responses to water stress. However, there are few studies on the use of daily minimum leaf turgor pressure (Ppmax) to indicate water information in apple tree.

Hand and Foot Massage on Pain Management After Cesarean Section: A Meta-Analysis.

Background: Pain following a cesarean section is a significantly stressful experience, impeding women's fast recovery. Interventions such as hand and foot massage have been employed for pain management after cesarean sections, but their effectiveness remains undetermined.

Objective: To comprehensively explore the effects of hand and foot massage on improving pain management after a cesarean section.

The influencing factors in intention making-decision of Human papillomavirus vaccine in Chinese college students: A qualitative study.

Objective: College students are considered as a high-risk age group for contracting HPV. HPV vaccines are proved to play a major role in preventing Cervical cancer and related cancers among both men and women. This study aimed to explore influencing factors in intention making-decision of Human papillomavirus vaccine in Chinese college students.

Preparation of Polysaccharide by Lactic Acid Bacterium Fermentation and Its Protective Mechanism against Alcoholic Liver Damage in Mice.

polysaccharide (DP) was prepared with lactic acid bacterium fermentation to overcome the large molecular weight and complex structure of traditional DP for improving its functional activity and application range in this work. The structure was analyzed, and then the functional activity was evaluated using a mouse model of alcoholic liver damage. The monosaccharide compositions were composed of four monosaccharides: arabinose (0.

Fabrication of 3D CuFeO/Cu hierarchical nanostructures on carbon fiber paper by simple hydrothermal method for efficient detection of malachite green, sunset yellow and tartrazine in food samples.

In this study, a hydrothermal process was utilized to grow mixed-valence CuFeO/Cu nanosheets on carbon fiber paper, forming a three-dimensional hierarchical electrode (CuFeO/Cu@CFP). The ordered array structure, coupled with the porous bowl-like structure, enhances the exposure of more electrode active sites and facilitates analyte penetration, thus enhancing the electrode sensing performance. As a binder-free sensor, the CuFeO/Cu@CFP sensor exhibited remarkable sensitivity in detecting Malachite Green (MG), Sunset Yellow (SY) and Tartrazine (TA) over wide concentration ranges: 0.

Theoretical study on lithium storage performance of V-doped TiCO MXene.

With the increasing application of lithium-ion batteries, the demand for high energy density, high-rate performance and high stability lithium-ion batteries is becoming more and more urgent. TiCO MXene, as a two-dimensional material with multilayer atomic structure and multiple active sites, has great advantages in lithium-ion battery electrode materials. However, the original TiCO MXene has been unable to meet the requirements of lithium-ion batteries due to its semiconductor properties.

Development of Fluorenyl-Based Copolyimines with Adjustable Mechanical Properties, Recyclability and Friction Resistance.

Dynamic polyimines are a class of fascinating dynamic polymers with recyclability and reparability owing to their reversible Schiff-base reactions. However, balancing the dynamic properties and mechanical strength of dynamic polyimines presents a major challenge due to the dissociative and associative nature of the imine bonds. Herein, we introduced bulky fluorene groups and polyether amine into the skeleton of polyimine networks to achieve a tradeoff in comprehensive properties.

Prostate cancer burden in major BRICS countries, 1990-2019: findings from the 2019 global burden of disease study.

Background: This study assessed prostate cancer burden and trends in major BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) from 1990 to 2019.

Methods: Utilizing Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 data, we calculated age-standardized rates for prostate cancer incidence, prevalence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) with 95% uncertainty intervals (UIs). Joinpoint regression analysis determined the average annual percentage change (AAPC) for trend characterization.

Three sesquiterpene lactones suppress lung adenocarcinoma by blocking TMEM16A-mediated Ca-activated Cl channels.

Transmembrane protein TMEM16A, which encodes calcium-activated chloride channel has been implicated in tumorigenesis. Overexpression of TMEM16A is associated with poor prognosis and low overall survival in multiple cancers including lung adenocarcinoma, making it a promising biomarker and therapeutic target. In this study, three structure-related sesquiterpene lactones (mecheliolide, costunolide and dehydrocostus lactone) were extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine and identified as novel TMEM16A inhibitors with comparable inhibitory effects.
