We report a 19-month-old patient with cardiomyopathy as the first presenting feature of primary COQ10 deficiency-6. This case expands the phenotypic spectrum of this disorder. Furthermore, it shows that genetic testing for primary COQ10 deficiency should be considered in patients with pediatric-onset cardiomyopathy as it can guide treatment options.

NT-proBNP levels increase exponentially with age and are associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. From NT-proBNP concentration a surrogate for biological age ("proBNPage") can be obtained. The primary objective of this study was to define a method to design future trials on anti-aging treatments using proBNPage.

Mitochondria are not only the most important organelles in eukaryotic cells that participate in energy metabolism, signal transduction, cell apoptosis and other physiological processes, but also essential regulators of neurodevelopment, neuroplasticity, survival and adult neurogenesis. The mitochondria-localized hydroxylase Clk-1 is involved in ubiquinone biosynthesis. Recent evidence shows that Clk1 mutant mice are resistant to morphine- and methamphetamine-induced conditioned place preference.

New daily persistent headache is a chronic, treatment-resistant primary headache disorder with limited guidance on effective management. Despite its significant impact on headache-related quality of life, few studies have identified targeted therapies that contribute to symptom resolution. This study aims to describe the outcomes of pediatric patients diagnosed with new daily persistent headache and assess associations between specific interventions and headache resolution.

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, oxidase- and catalase-positive and non-motile bacterium, named MINF-07-Sa-05, was isolated from sediment samples collected from Niya Fish Salt Lake in Xinjiang, northwest China. Phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain MINF-07-Sa-05 consistently fell within the genus and formed a clade together with ZV-19 (98.97%) and 4CA (96.

High-salinity wastewater poses a significant challenge for nitrogen removal becauase microbial communities must adapt to extreme osmotic stress while maintaining their functional efficiency. Marine bacteria, naturally adapted to saline environments, offer a potential solution through the rapid enrichment of salt-tolerant and halophilic species. This study comparatively evaluated activated sludge (AS) and marine sludge (MS) as inocula for high-salinity denitrification systems.
