Article Synopsis
- Anthropogenic activities are leading to water contamination, posing risks to human health and ecosystems, prompting the development of a nanotechnological solution for improving aqua fisheries.
- Magnetic hematite nanoparticles were synthesized using bacillus subtilis and combined with polyvinyl alcohol to create a hydrogel, which effectively decontaminated cadmium-polluted water in fish cultures.
- The hydrogel reduced water turbidity and cadmium levels in tilapia, improving their health by reversing harmful effects on various biological markers and maintaining cellular integrity.
Posttreatment surveillance intensity and overall survival in prostate cancer survivors (AFT-30).
JNCI Cancer Spectr
November 2024
Article Synopsis
- This study investigated the effects of posttreatment surveillance intensity on overall survival in men with localized prostate cancer treated by radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy.
- Data from over 10,000 patients showed no significant differences in overall survival related to the number of PSA tests conducted in the first year after treatment.
- While higher surveillance intensity didn't improve overall survival, it was linked to more procedures and salvage treatments, particularly showing worse recurrence-free survival in patients who had radical prostatectomy.
Landfill leachate is one of the most recalcitrant wastes for biotreatment and can be considered a potential source of contamination to surface and groundwater ecosystems. In the present study, Fenton oxidation was employed for degradation of stabilized landfill leachate. Response surface methodology was applied to analyze, model and optimize the process parameters, i.
