Published: October 2024

AbstractBACKGROUNDMetal nanoparticles are widely used in agricultural production. As a new type of molybdenum fertilizer, MoO3NPs have the properties of nanomaterials and the characteristics of molybdenum nutrition. Previous studies have focused on their role in promoting crop growth. However, it is unknown whether excessive MoO3NPs will affect crop quality and nutritional value. In this study, the effects of different concentrations of MoO3NPs (0, 0.15, 0.5, 1.0, 5.0, 10, 50, 100 mg kg−1) on the growth and quality of soybean were investigated by pot experiments to analyze the plant effects caused by MoO3NPs.RESULTSThe results showed that the effects of MoO3NPs treatment on plant biomass and nodule number were promoted at low concentrations (0.15–5 mg kg−1) and inhibited at high concentrations (10–100 mg kg−1). According to the logistic distribution model, it was predicted that MoO3NPs would have the strongest toxic effect on soybean flowering stage. The contents of MoO3NPs which reduced the yield of soybean by 10% and 20% were 12.38 and 30.81 mg kg−1. NP0.15 could significantly improve the total amount of amino acids in grains, while NP100 reduced the total amount of amino acids in grains, both of them significantly increasing the contents of linolenic acid and linoleic acid in soybean seeds.CONCLUSIONA change of MoO3NPs concentration had no negative effect on the nutritional value of soybean grains. The research could lead to a better understanding of the potential impact of nutritional changes caused by MoO3NPs on human health. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

AbstractPurposePosterior elongation of the physiological terminal sulcus (TS) due to lateral femoral condyle impaction fracture (LFC‐IF) after an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear could potentially decrease the weight‐bearing area of the tibiofemoral joint, decrease the tension on lateral meniscus and cause flattening of the LFC which would influence rotational knee motion and cause anisometry of the lateral and anterolateral stabilizers. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to assess if the LFC‐IF elongates the physiological TS posteriorly.MethodsOne hundred patients magnetic resonance images (MRIs) (75 males, 25 females, mean age 32.2 years, SD = 8.2) were included with a 1:1 ratio between the full‐thickness ACL tear group and the control group (patients with knee MRI performed due to other reasons, with no tear of ACL on MRI and negative clinical tests). Two independent raters evaluated the sagittal T1‐weighted preselected MRI scans. The principal measurement of interest was the distance from the intersection of the Blumensaat line with subchondral bone to the posterior border of the TS/LFC‐IF.ResultsThe median distance from the Blumensaat line to the posterior border of the TS/LFC‐IF was significantly higher in the ACL tear group: 14.3 mm, interquartile range (IQR) = 11.6–16.4 mm versus control group: 12.8 mm, IQR = 9.0–15.0 mm, p = 0.038. Intrarater and inter‐rater reliabilities were >0.90.ConclusionLFC‐IF after full‐thickness ACL tear significantly elongates the physiological TS in the posterior direction.Level of EvidenceLevel III.

AbstractPurposeThe prevalence and appreciation of meniscal tears in children have increased in both number and complexity. There is currently a paucity of high‐quality evidence that can guide surgeons in treating skeletally immature patients with meniscal injuries. The aim of this study was to develop comprehensive recommendations for the management of isolated meniscal tears in skeletally immature children.MethodsAn international, two‐round, modified Delphi consensus was completed. Included ‘experts’ were identified as having an established adult knee practice, including children and either: (1) Faculty at an international paediatric knee conference, (2) Active members of complex national paediatric multi‐disciplinary groups or (3) Members of faculty on recognised national/international instructional courses aimed at teaching the management of meniscal lesions to knee surgeons. The currently available literature was reviewed, and areas of poor quality, inconclusive or absent evidence were examined and formed the focus of the study. A threshold of 70% was used to define consensus for our study based on other similar Delphi consensus studies in the literature.ResultsA total of 43 experts (Round 1) and 41 experts (Round 2) took part in the Delphi study, including surgeons from Europe, the United States of America and South America. 34 statements were identified exploring three main domains—clinical assessment, management and complex tears (bucket handle, discoid and radial). Following Round 1, consensus was reached on 17 (50%) statements; subsequently, after completion of Round 2, consensus was reached on 28 (82%) statements, leaving six (18%) with no consensus. The areas of no consensus included investigation of painless clicking, the most sensitive clinical test for meniscal pathology, treatment of small radial tears (less than 1/3 width), ability to reduce chronic bucket handle tears and timing of surgery.ConclusionsThis is the first modified Delphi consensus that provides evidence for surgeons treating skeletally immature children with isolated meniscal tears. A valuable level of consensus was reached on the assessment and management of simple and specialist meniscal tears. These consensus statements can both inform clinical practice and be used in the development of further high‐quality research studies.Level of EvidenceLevel V.

Published: October 2024

AbstractInSb colloid quantum dots (CQDs) are liquid “green” semiconductor materials. Their band gaps can be readily adjusted by controlling their particle size. Their excellent photoelectric properties and non‐toxic properties render them highly suitable for the fabrication of low‐cost infrared photodetectors and image sensors in industrial and consumer electronics applications. Despite the concept and preparation of InSb CQDs having been reported for decades, the performance of InSb CQDs‐based photodetectors still lags behind that of their toxic PbS CQDs‐based counterparts. This is mainly due to the immature synthesis process and the lack of sufficient device research. Fortunately, significant advances have been made in the synthesis of InSb CQDs and ligand exchange strategies over the past three years, resulting in notable enhancements in device performance. This review presents a summary of the recent advances in InSb CQDs and their applications in photodetectors. A particular focus is placed on the development of controllable synthesis routes for high‐quality InSb CQDs, which represents a significant challenge due to the high valence nature of InSb. Furthermore, the performance of these devices is discussed in detail, with a particular focus on ligand exchange and surface treatment strategies. Finally, a brief summary and outlook on InSb CQDs‐based photodetectors is presented.

AbstractTriple negative breast cancer (TNBC) displays a notable challenge in clinical oncology due to its invasive nature which is attributed to the absence of progesterone receptor (PR), estrogen receptor (ER), and human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER‐2). The heterogenous tumor microenvironment (TME) of TNBC is composed of diverse constituents that intricately interact to evade immune response and facilitate cancer progression and metastasis. Based on molecular gene expression, TNBC is classified into four molecular subtypes: basal‐like (BL1 and BL2), luminal androgen receptor (LAR), immunomodulatory (IM), and mesenchymal. TNBC is an aggressive histological variant with adverse prognosis and poor therapeutic response. The lack of response in most of the TNBC patients could be attributed to the heterogeneity of the disease, highlighting the need for more effective treatments and reliable prognostic biomarkers. Targeting certain signaling pathways and their components has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy for improving patient outcomes. In this review, we have summarized the interactions among various components of the dynamic TME in TNBC and discussed the classification of its molecular subtypes. Moreover, the purpose of this review is to compile and provide an overview of the most recent data about recently discovered novel TNBC biomarkers and targeted therapeutics that have proven successful in treating metastatic TNBC. The emergence of novel therapeutic strategies such as chemoimmunotherapy, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)‐T cells‐based immunotherapy, phytometabolites‐mediated natural therapy, photodynamic and photothermal approaches have made a significant positive impact and have paved the way for more effective interventions.

Published: October 2024

AbstractThe integration of health monitoring and wearable antenna technologies has enhanced patient assessment and the provision of healthcare. Traditional health monitoring methods have evoked a surge in interest toward embroidered antennas as a viable solution for constant physiological monitoring in a noninvasive way. This study examines the performance of an embroidered wearable textile (EWT) antenna intended for breathing rate applications. The antenna is seamlessly integrated into a commercially available T‐shirt, extending the confines of “smart” textiles. The compact (45 mm × 26 mm) EWT antenna operates in 2.4 and 5.8 GHz with gains of 2.07 and 5.85 dBi, respectively. Crumpling and stretching analysis have also been investigated to ensure antenna's mechanical stability and reliability. Subsequently a specific absorption rate analysis has also been performed to quantify the radiation within specified limits.

Abstract

Objective
In West Alabama, catfish Ictalurus spp. producers routinely face the challenge of fish that exceed market size (aka “Big Fish”) in their commercial ponds. These fish are skilled at evading seine nets during harvest and can increase in size significantly before subsequent harvests occur. This is problematic for catfish producers because processing plants prefer catfish within the 0.45–1.81-kg range and farmers are paid a premium price for catfish of this size. Due to their larger size and growth potential, hybrid catfish (female Channel Catfish Ictalurus punctatus × male Blue Catfish I. furcatus) can become a more significant issue than Channel Catfish if they evade harvest. The objective of this study was to describe and quantify the age structure and growth rate of hybrid catfish that evade capture and remain in commercial ponds following harvest and grow beyond acceptable market size as defined by catfish processing plants (i.e., Big Fish).

Methods
Hybrid catfish were collected from 12 recently harvested commercial ponds in West Alabama from December 2021 to August 2022 using an electroshocking boat. Total length (mm), body weight (kg), and sex of collected fish were recorded, and lapilli otoliths were removed to estimate fish age and determine total length and total body weight at estimated ages.

Result
In this study, 1005 hybrid catfish were collected with the successful age estimation for 1001 catfish, ranging from 1 to 11 years. Results of this study indicate that hybrid catfish exceeded the premium size threshold in 2.72 years ± 8 months. Additionally, from age 2 to age 3, the average hybrid catfish gained 2.90 kg, growing from 0.40 to 3.30 kg. Growth rate was significantly affected by sex; males overall were predicted to weigh more than females based on the weight-at-age model.

Conclusion
Hybrid catfish should be completely harvested from commercial ponds following 1 year of harvest to receive the premium price per kilogram of live fish. If a complete harvest is unsuccessful, farmers can receive a discounted price per kilogram of leftover hybrid catfish based on current market trends.

Abstract

Objective
The spiny sand lobster Panulirus homarus is one of the lobster species that has a high price in local and international markets and is economically valuable. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of stocking density on the survival and growth of spiny sand lobsters kept in cylindrical cages (1.00 m high × 1.15 m in diameter) at a depth of 7 m below the water surface, with an average ambient temperature of 29–32°C.

Methods
The 3-month study was performed in 2022 and had a completely randomized design. There were three treatment groups, each of which had three replications. Stocking densities were 10 lobsters/m2 (10 lobsters/cage) for treatment A, 15 lobsters/m2 (15 lobsters/cage) for treatment B, and 20 lobsters/m2 (20 lobsters/cage) for treatment C. The initial average body weight was 75 g/lobster.

Result
The survival rates for treatment A (mean ± standard error = 91.50 ± 0.25%) and treatment B (93.30 ± 0.51%) were higher than the survival rate for treatment C (86.05 ± 0.45%), but the values were not significantly different. Daily weight gain and the specific daily growth rate for treatments A and C were significantly higher than those of treatment B. The feed conversion ratio was not significantly different among the groups. Total hemocyte count in the hemolymph between treatments A and B as well as initial (day-0) values were not significantly different, but values for treatments A and B were significantly lower than that for treatment C. The hemolymph glucose value for treatment A was significantly lower than that of treatment C but was not different from that of treatment B.

Conclusion
The grow-out study of spiny sand lobsters at 7-m depth indicated an optimal stocking density of 15 lobsters/m2. This was supported by several physiological response and production performance parameters, which generally had no significant difference with those of the lower stocking density.

AbstractBackgroundDespite the high risk of bacterial contamination, no studies have been found that evaluate the optimal hanging time of open‐system enteral sets under room temperature and intensive care conditions. This study aims to determine the differences in microbial loads of solutions taken from open‐system enteral feeding sets hanging for 24 h under room temperature and intensive care conditions.MethodsThis study is a descriptive type of research. The study sample consisted of a total of 40 samples, with 20 samples under room temperature (25.2–23.3°C) and 20 samples under intensive care conditions (21.1–24.2°C). A simple random sampling method was used for sample selection. The assessment of microbial quality was based on the US Food and Drug Administration online Bacteriological Analytical Manual.ResultsIn this study, it was determined that 5% of the samples taken from intensive care and 15% of the samples taken at room temperature exceeded the accepted limit for aerobic mesophilic bacteria count. The count of catalase and coagulase‐negative Staphylococcus spp was 5% in intensive care samples and 40% in room temperature samples. The total coliform count was not detected in intensive care samples but was 35% in room temperature samples. Escherichia coli was not detected in either group.ConclusionDifferences in microbial loads were observed when commercial enteral solutions were administered using open‐system enteral feeding sets under room and intensive care conditions for 24 h. Therefore, large‐scale studies are needed to determine the safe use of open‐system enteral feeding sets under room temperature conditions.

Authors: Otis Joanna L. , Parker Nicholas M. , Busch Rebecca A. 
Published: October 2024

AbstractProviding optimal nutrition support in the intensive care unit (ICU) is a challenging and dynamic process. Energy, protein, fluid, electrolyte, and micronutrient requirements all can be altered in patients with acute, chronic, and acute‐on‐chronic kidney disease. Given that renal dysfunction occurs in up to one‐half of ICU patients, it is imperative that nutrition support providers understand how renal dysfunction, its metabolic consequences, and its treatments, including renal replacement therapy (RRT), affect patients' nutrition needs. Data on nutrient requirements in critically ill patients with renal dysfunction are sparse. This article provides an overview of renal dysfunction in the ICU and identifies and addresses the unique nutrition challenges present among these patients, including those receiving RRT, as supported by the available literature and guidelines.
Enhancing Stability in Wind‐Integrated Power Systems Through Coordinated Control of POD, PSS, and SVC With Fuzzy Logic: A Comprehensive Study Under Various Operating Conditions
Authors: Bhukya Jawaharlal 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTThis research proposes a coordinated approach for power oscillation damping (POD) of wind farms (WFs), power system stabilizer (PSS) of synchronous generators (SGs), and static var compensator (SVC) to enhance transient stability. The study explored the impact of wind speed variation, WF integration, and replacement of SG with WF and severe disturbances on system stability, addressing challenges such as dynamic performance impact and reduced power system inertia, which can lead to stability issues and undamped oscillations in generators. Different control strategies, including POD, PSS, and SVC, are proposed to tackle these challenges and improve transient stability. Conventional controllers face limitations in handling nonlinear characteristics, especially during severe disturbances. Coordination between POD, PSS, and SVC is crucial for achieving desired performance, facilitated by fuzzy logic control (FLC). FLC adapts to system operating conditions, generating optimal signals to adjust controllers based on measured variables. Utilizing FLC, lead‐lag parameters of controllers are finely tuned, demonstrating improved stability performance over conventional approaches. The MATLAB/Simulink using RT‐Lab‐OP4500 experimental platform with the modified IEEE‐9‐bus system confirm the proposed approach's effectiveness in enhancing transient stability under diverse operating conditions. Comparative analysis confirms the proposed approach's robustness and superiority in stabilizing power oscillations, especially during three‐phase faults. Results demonstrate improved stability performance and effective damping of oscillations, establishing the coordinated controller combinations with FLC as a viable solution for system stability enhancement. The proposed approach enhances small signal and transient stability by effectively damping oscillations, demonstrating promising results for practical applications during challenges related to uncertainties and nonlinearities.
