Published: December 2024

This study focuses on the fabrication and characterisation of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) buckypapers and polyethersulfone (PES) flat-sheet membranes using Cyrene, aiming toevaluate its efficacy as a green solvent for these applications. Pristine SWCNTs were dispersed inCyrene without surfactants and compared to N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) dispersions. Buckypapers were fabricated from these dispersions and characterised using Scanning ElectronMicroscopy (SEM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), and infrared spectroscopy. Their performancewas tested in wastewater and oil-water emulsion filtrations and antimicrobial activity. PESmembranes incorporating SWCNTs were prepared using phase inversion and analysed via SEM,optical microscopy, and contact angle. Membrane properties and water permeability were assessed,and bacterial challenge tests evaluated antimicrobial activity. Cyrene enabled the dispersion ofSWCNTs at higher concentrations (0.038 mg mL⁻1) compared to NMP (0.013 mg mL⁻1). Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) analysis revealed that Cyrene effectively debundles SWCNTs, yielding better dispersion. Buckypapers fabricated with Cyrene demonstrated dense, uniform networks with enhanced surface smoothness and promising filtration performance for wastewater treatment and oil-water separation. PES membranes made with Cyrene exhibited well-organised finger-like structures, interconnected pores, superior porosity, and higher water permeability than NMP-based membranes. Incorporating SWCNTs further improved membrane performance. However, bacterial challenge tests indicated no significant antimicrobial activity. The findings highlight Cyrene’s potential as a sustainable alternative to traditional solvents, offering improved material properties and filtration performance. Despite these advantages, further studies are necessary to address solvent residuals and long-term safety considerations, ensuring its suitability for broader applications.

Published: December 2024

BackgroundAcute myocardial infarction (AMI), particularly ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), significantly impacts global health, exacerbated by risk factors such as diabetes mellitus (DM). While the Gensini score effectively quantifies coronary artery lesions, its correlation with fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels, particularly in a non-linear fashion, has not been thoroughly explored in STEMI patients.MethodsThis study analyzed data from 464 STEMI patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention at the First People's Hospital of Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province, China, from January 2010 to October 2014. We stratified patients into three FBG tertiles and utilized multiple statistical analyses, including least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and curve fitting, to examine the potential U-shaped relationship between FBG levels and Gensini scores.ResultsOur analysis revealed significant differences in Gensini scores across FBG tertiles, with both hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic extremes showing higher scores compared to the normoglycemic range. The curve fitting analysis confirmed a U-shaped relationship, suggesting a significant, non-linear association between FBG levels and coronary artery lesion severity, regardless of diabetes status.ConclusionsOur findings underscore the complexity of glycemic control in STEMI management and suggest that both hypo- and hyperglycemia are significant risk factors for severe coronary lesions as quantified by the Gensini score. This study highlights the importance of comprehensive FBG monitoring and management to improve outcomes for STEMI patients.

Published: December 2024

ObjectiveThis study aimed to systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy of Jingjin (muscle region of the meridian, sinew/tendon/fascia) acupuncture therapy in treating peripheral facial paralysis.MethodsA computerized search of PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Clinical Studies, SCOPUS, Web of Science, PEDro, China Knowledge, Wanfang, and Wipu databases was performed for published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the treatment of peripheral facial paralysis using Jingjin acupuncture therapy from the beginning of the construction of the databases until 2 April 2024. After a two-person independent extraction of data, the studies were assessed for paper quality and then analyzed for meta-analysis using RevMan5.4 software.ResultsA total of 19 randomized controlled trials involving 1,436 patients were included. Meta-analysis showed that Jingjin acupuncture therapy for peripheral facial palsy had a higher overall effectiveness rate (OR = 3.93, 95% CI [2.78, 5.56], Z = 7.75, p &lt; 0.00001), and cure rates (RR = 1.69, 95% CI [1.51, 1.90], and Z = 8.89, p &lt; 0.00001) were higher than those of conventional therapy. Jingjin acupuncture therapy was also superior to conventional acupuncture therapy in terms of Facial Disability Index-Physical (FDIP) scores, Facial Disability Index-Social (FDIS) scores, facial nerve function scores, and Portmann scores on the Facial Disability Index Scale in patients with peripheral facial paralysis.ConclusionJingjin acupuncture therapy is effective in treating peripheral facial paralysis and has better overall efficacy than conventional therapy. However, the reliability is limited by the small number of high-quality studies with scientifically rigorous methods and designs, so more large-sample, high-quality, randomized controlled studies are still needed for further validation.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/, Identifier CRD42024543195.

Published: December 2024

BackgroundGender defined as the socially constructed roles, behaviors, activities, and characteristics that society deems appropriate for men, women, and other gender identities. Inequitable gender norms promote male dominance and aggressiveness while portraying women as being subservient. Ensuring equitable gender norms is a prerequisite for achieving gender equality in a society. The rise in maternal mortality and morbidity, adolescent pregnancies, unwanted pregnancies, unsafe abortions, HIV/AIDS, gender-based violence, and obstacles to reproductive health care are all linked to inequitable gender norms. On the other hand, not much is known regarding inequitable gender norms and their correlation in our setting.ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to evaluate university students’ attitudes regarding inequitable gender norms and responsible factors.DesignBetween October 25 and November 10, 2022, students from Jinka and Arba Minch University participated in an institution-based cross-sectional study.MethodsA total of 635 students were selected using a multi-stage sampling technique. The Gender Equitable Men Scale was employed to evaluate inequitable gender norms. Data were verified and entered into Epi-Data Version 3.1, then analyzed using SPSS Version 25.0. Binary logistic regression was initially used to identify potential factors associated with inequitable gender norms, variables having a p-value &lt;0.25 in bivariate analysis considered for multivariable regression. The final model’s fit was assessed using the Hosmer–Lemeshow goodness-of-fit statistic, confirming its adequacy. Statistical significance was determined at a threshold of p &lt; 0.05.ResultsOf the study participants, 44.1% (95% CI: 40.10, 48.10%) had an inequitable gender norm, while the mean score for a inequitable gender norm was 61.4 (SD 8.4). Inequitable gender norm was associated with sex being male (AOR = 1.75, 95%CI: 1.19, 2.56), romantic relationship breakup (AOR = 2.10, 95% CI: 1.14, 3.99), and having a negative attitude toward gender equality (AOR = 3,14, 95% CI: 2.15, 4.58).ConclusionA notable number of participants expressed support for inequitable gender norms. This underscores the importance of comprehensive efforts by relevant stakeholders to address identified factors and promote equitable gender norms among university students.

Authors: Rucska Andrea , Lakatos Csilla 
Published: December 2024

In a quantitative cross-sectional study, the authors investigated the health risk behaviour of secondary school students in northern Hungary, including the consumption of legal psychoactive substances (nicotine, alcohol, caffeine). In addition to assessing substance use habits, the study should also assess mental health characteristics and examine the correlates of substance use. A total of 1251 respondents (n= 1251) took part in the survey (mean age: 16.4 years; SD: 1.6), with 59.1% of the sample being boys. The questionnaire included questions on socio-demographic data, nicotine and alcohol consumption, frequency of consumption, motivation for alcohol consumption and mental health characteristics. The results indicate that the intensity of smoking and alcohol consumption is highest in the 16-17 years old age group, with a higher prevalence of smoking among girls and alcohol consumption among boys. For smoking, lower parental education and poorer mental health are the main risk factors, and for alcohol consumption, lower parental education, a smaller settlement, poorer living conditions and poorer mental health are the main risk factors.
