BackgroundAsthma represents a substantial public health challenge in the United States, affecting over 25 million adults. This study investigates the impact of neighborhood economic deprivation on asthma-associated Emergency Department (ED) visits in Maryland, using the Distressed Communities Index (DCI) for analysis.MethodsA retrospective analysis of Maryland's Emergency Department Databases from January 2018 to December 2020 was conducted, focusing on asthma-associated ED visits.ResultsThe study involved 185,317 ED visits, majority of which were females (56.3%) and non-Hispanic whites (65.2%). A significant association was found between increased neighborhood socioeconomic deprivation and asthma-related ED visits. The poorest neighborhoods showed the highest rates of such visits. Compared to prosperous areas, neighborhoods classified from Comfortable to Distressed had progressively higher odds for asthma-related ED visits (Comfortable: OR = 1.14, Distressed OR = 1.65). Other significant asthma predictors included obesity, female gender, tobacco smoking, and older age.ConclusionThere is a substantive association between higher asthma-related ED visits and high neighborhood economic deprivation, underscoring the impact of socioeconomic factors on health outcomes.Public health implicationsAddressing healthcare disparities and improving access to care in economically distressed neighborhoods is crucial. Targeted interventions, such as community health clinics and asthma education programs, can help mitigate the impact of neighborhood disadvantage.

Introduction: Numerical modeling of the intervertebral disc (IVD) is challenging due to its complex and heterogeneous structure, requiring careful selection of constitutive models and material properties. A critical aspect of such modeling is the representation of annulus fibers, which significantly impact IVD biomechanics. This study presents a comparative analysis of different methods for fiber reinforcement in the annulus fibrosus of a finite element (FE) model of the human IVD.Methods: We utilized a reconstructed L4-L5 IVD geometry to compare three fiber modeling approaches: the anisotropic Holzapfel-Gasser-Ogden (HGO) model (HGO fiber model) and two sets of structural rebar elements with linear-elastic (linear rebar model) and hyperelastic (nonlinear rebar model) material definitions, respectively. Prior to calibration, we conducted a sensitivity analysis to identify the most important model parameters to be calibrated and improve the efficiency of the calibration. Calibration was performed using a genetic algorithm and in vitro range of motion (RoM) data from a published study with eight specimens tested under four loading scenarios. For validation, intradiscal pressure (IDP) measurements from the same study were used, along with additional RoM data from a separate publication involving five specimens subjected to four different loading conditions.Results: The sensitivity analysis revealed that most parameters, except for the Poisson ratio of the annulus fibers and C01 from the nucleus, significantly affected the RoM and IDP outcomes. Upon calibration, the HGO fiber model demonstrated the highest accuracy (R2 = 0.95), followed by the linear (R2 = 0.89) and nonlinear rebar models (R2 = 0.87). During the validation phase, the HGO fiber model maintained its high accuracy (RoM R2 = 0.85; IDP R2 = 0.87), while the linear and nonlinear rebar models had lower validation scores (RoM R2 = 0.71 and 0.69; IDP R2 = 0.86 and 0.8, respectively).Discussion: The results of the study demonstrate a successful calibration process that established good agreement with experimental data. Based on our findings, the HGO fiber model appears to be a more suitable option for accurate IVD FE modeling considering its higher fidelity in simulation results and computational efficiency.

Tissue-engineered vascular grafts (TEVGs) poised for regenerative applications are central to effective vascular repair, with their efficacy being significantly influenced by scaffold architecture and the strategic distribution of bioactive molecules either embedded within the scaffold or elicited from responsive tissues. Despite substantial advancements over recent decades, a thorough understanding of the critical cellular dynamics for clinical success remains to be fully elucidated. Graft failure, often ascribed to thrombogenesis, intimal hyperplasia, or calcification, is predominantly linked to improperly modulated inflammatory reactions. The orchestrated behavior of repopulating cells is crucial for both initial endothelialization and the subsequent differentiation of vascular wall stem cells into functional phenotypes. This necessitates the TEVG to provide an optimal milieu wherein immune cells can promote early angiogenesis and cell recruitment, all while averting persistent inflammation. In this study, we present an innovative TEVG designed to enhance cellular responses by integrating a physicochemical gradient through a multilayered structure utilizing synthetic (poly (ester urethane urea), PEUU) and natural polymers (Gelatin B), thereby modulating inflammatory reactions. The luminal surface is functionalized with a four-arm polyethylene glycol (P4A) to mitigate thrombogenesis, while the incorporation of adhesive peptides (RGD/SV) fosters the adhesion and maturation of functional endothelial cells. The resultant multilayered TEVG, with a diameter of 3.0 cm and a length of 11 cm, exhibits differential porosity along its layers and mechanical properties commensurate with those of native porcine carotid arteries. Analyses indicate high biocompatibility and low thrombogenicity while enabling luminal endothelialization and functional phenotypic behavior, thus limiting inflammation in in-vitro models. The vascular wall demonstrated low immunogenicity with an initial acute inflammatory phase, transitioning towards a pro-regenerative M2 macrophage-predominant phase. These findings underscore the potential of the designed TEVG in inducing favorable immunomodulatory and pro-regenerative environments, thus holding promise for future clinical applications in vascular tissue engineering.

Published: June 2024

IntroductionStenotrophomonas is a prominent genus owing to its dual nature. Species of this genus have many applications in industry and agriculture as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria and microbial biological control agents, whereas species such as Stenotrophomonas maltophilia are considered one of the leading gram-negative multi-drug-resistant bacterial pathogens because of their high contribution to the increase in crude mortality and significant clinical challenge. Pathogenic Stenotrophomonas species and most clinical isolates belong to the Stenotrophomonas maltophilia complex (SMc). However, a strain highly homologous to S. terrae was isolated from a patient with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), which aroused our interest, as S. terrae belongs to a relatively distant clade from SMc and there have been no human association reports.MethodsThe pathogenicity, immunological and biochemical characteristics of 610A2T were systematically evaluated.Results610A2T is a new species of genus Stenotrophomonas, which is named as Stenotrophomonas pigmentata sp. nov. for its obvious brown water-soluble pigment. 610A2T is pathogenic and caused significant weight loss, pulmonary congestion, and blood transmission in mice because it has multiple virulence factors, haemolysis, and strong biofilm formation abilities. In addition, the cytokine response induced by this strain was similar to that observed in patients with TB, and the strain was resistant to half of the anti-TB drugs.ConclusionsThe pathogenicity of 610A2T may not be weaker than that of S. maltophilia. Its isolation extended the opportunistic pathogenic species to all 3 major clades of the genus Stenotrophomonas, indicating that the clinical importance of species of Stenotrophomonas other than S. maltophilia and potential risks to biological safety associated with the use of Stenotrophomonas require more attention.

ObjectivesThyroid cancer rarely occurs in children and adolescents. Molecular markers such as BRAF, RAS, and RET/PTC have been widely used in adult PTC. It is currently unclear whether these molecular markers have equivalent potential for application in pediatric patients. This study aims to explore the potential utility of a multi-gene conjoint analysis based on next-generation targeted sequencing for pediatric papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).Materials and methodsThe patients diagnosed with PTC (aged 18 years or younger) in the pediatrics department of Lishui District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were retrospectively screened. A targeted enrichment and sequencing analysis of 116 genes associated with thyroid cancer was performed on paraffin-embedded tumor tissues and paired paracancerous tissue of fifteen children (average age 14.60) and nine adults (average age 49.33) PTC patients. Demographic information, clinical indicators, ultrasonic imaging information and pathological data were collected. The Kendall correlation test was used to establish a correlation between molecular variations and clinical characteristics in pediatric patients.ResultsA sample of 15 pediatric PTCs revealed a detection rate of 73.33% (11/15) for driver gene mutations BRAF V600E and RET fusion. Compared to adult PTCs, the genetic mutation landscape of pediatric PTCs was more complex. Six mutant genes overlap between the two groups, and an additional seventeen unique mutant genes were identified only in pediatric PTCs. There was only one unique mutant gene in adult PTCs. The tumor diameter of pediatric PTCs tended to be less than 4cm (p&lt;0.001), and the number of lymph node metastases was more than five (p&lt;0.001). Mutations in specific genes unique to pediatric PTCs may contribute to the onset and progression of the disease by adversely affecting hormone synthesis, secretion, and action mechanisms, as well as the functioning of thyroid hormone signaling pathways. But, additional experiments are required to validate this hypothesis.ConclusionBRAF V600E mutation and RET fusion are involved in the occurrence and development of adolescent PTC. For pediatric thyroid nodules that cannot be determined as benign or malignant by fine needle aspiration biopsy, multiple gene combination testing can provide a reference for personalized diagnosis and treatment by clinical physicians.
Technoeconomic analysis: the potential and opportunities of transforming Saudi Arabian scrap tires into synthetic fuel via vacuum pyrolysis
Authors: Yahya Sulaiman Al , Omar Muhammad Mubashar 
Published: June 2024

Environmental hazards linked with scrap tires have been a great concern for the Saudi government. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has a Vision 2030 project with an aim to produce 50% of its energy through renewable energy resources. The tire market in the country reached 22.2 million units in 2022 and is expected to increase up to 24.9 million in 2028 with a growth rate of 2.11%. This study used a vacuum pyrolyzer for transforming scrap tires into tire-derived oil (TDO), along with other products such as synthesis gas (syngas) and carbon black. It provides a feasible way of transforming scrap tires into synthetic fuel via vacuum pyrolysis (a thermochemical approach). Vacuum pyrolysis of scrap tires at temperature 350–400oC yields 45%–55% derived oil, 10%–15% steel wires, 30%–35% carbon black, and 10%–15% non-condensable gases. The heating value of the obtained tire-derived oil is 32–37 MJ/kg, which is somehow less than that of diesel, which has an energy value of 44–46 MJ/kg. Such products are expected to be obtained after the successful adaptation of advanced techniques such as thermochemical approaches and can successfully be used as an alternative to fossil fuels. Based on the scrap tire produced in the country, if Saudi Arabia can process 22.2 million units of tires (trucks and passenger cars) annually through vacuum pyrolysis, it can earn approximately $47.40 million annually (or $2.14 per tire) through tire pyrolysis. Utilization of carbon black (recovered from scrap tire pyrolysis) in manufacturing tires can save approximately 2.5 tons of CO2 production compared to per ton production of new (virgin) carbon black. This study suggested pyrolysis to be a viable recycling and waste tire management technique, and it can be an independent profitable operation in Saudi Arabia and helps in meeting the Saudi Vision 2030.

This study assessed the possibility of using wood as a building material for the construction of houses. A comprehensive method was used, which consisted of analysing environmental management regulations, applying the life cycle assessment method to minimise the carbon footprint; using software to calculate the carbon footprint of a wooden house at different stages of the life cycle. The object of study is the carbon footprint of a house built of wood. The Life Cycle Assessment method was used as a methodology for assessing the life cycle. Using the One Click Life Cycle Assessment and Life Cycle Cost software, the carbon footprint of a log house was calculated for the product life cycle stage mentioned above (A1-A3). When calculating the carbon footprint of wood-based building materials, carbon emissions were taken into account not only from the finished products, but also from all other products obtained as a result of logging. When calculating the carbon footprint, greenhouse gas emissions from all activities are estimated. We have obtained data on the life cycle cost of a wooden house in terms of electricity use. Accordingly, we obtained a value of global warming potential (A1-A3) of 0.51 kg CO2 e/kWh. We also obtained data on the life cycle cost of a wooden house in terms of diesel consumption. According to the results of the LCA, the value of the global warming potential due to meeting the water supply/sewage needs is (A1-A3) 0.69 kg CO2 e/m3. The value of the global warming potential due to meeting the heat supply needs of production needs is (A1- A3) 0.13 kg CO2 e/kWh. Based on the information obtained, we can conclude that it is advisable to use a wooden log house as a building material, as the carbon footprint is smaller than that of a brick building. The final section presents the results of calculating the life cycle cost of a wooden house by discount factor and inflation, the results of the life cycle cost of a wooden house by percentage of energy costs, and the results of assessing the life cycle cost of a wooden house (displaying parameters according to the European energy certification scale). Based on the carbon footprint assessment (using the Life Cycle Assessment methodology), economic comparison (Life Cycle Cost and total construction costs), and expert assessment (based on technical and ergonomic parameters) of the two construction technologies, the feasibility and possibility of using wood as a building material was established. The study proves the feasibility of applying the LCA method in the construction industry.
