Characterization of airborne particulate matter and its toxic and proarrhythmic effects: A case study in Aburr á Valley, Colombia
This study characterized the PM collected from the north, south, and central zones to evaluate its chemical composition and morphology. Different elements such as silicon, carbon, aluminum, potassium, calcium, sodium, iron, magnesium, and copper and the presence of unburned fuel, motor oil, and silicon fibers were identified. In vitro and in silico studies were conducted to evaluate the toxicity of the PM, and it was found that the PM collected from the central zone had the greatest impact on cell viability and caused DNA damage. The in silico study demonstrated that PM has concentration-dependent proarrhythmic effects, re...

Treat functional constipation in children with conventional options first and consider alternatives if needed
AbstractThe treatment of functional constipation in children includes faecal disimpaction and maintenance therapy. Conventional treatment options, such as polyethylene glycol (for disimpaction and maintenance), enemas (for disimpaction) and lactulose (for maintenance) have the greatest evidence for efficacy and safety in children. Alternatives such as stimulant laxatives, magnesium hydroxide and mineral oil are generally considered effective and well tolerated, but data in children are limited. Botulinum toxin injection should be considered as one of the last treatment options. Novel drugs have shown efficacy in treating c...

Can You Eat Spicy Foods With Hypertension?
Conclusion In conclusion, for those who can tolerate it, the regular consumption of spicy foods might be more beneficial for people with hypertension than one would think. However, the key to managing hypertension is a balanced, heart-healthy diet complemented by regular exercise and lifestyle modifications. Always consult with your healthcare provider before making significant changes to your diet or starting any supplement regimen, especially if you are managing a health condition like hypertension.

Reactive Magnesium Nitride Additive: A Drop-in Solution for Lithium/Garnet Wetting in All-Solid-State Batteries
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2023 May 2:e202305099. doi: 10.1002/anie.202305099. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGarnet oxides such as Li6.4La3Zr1.4Ta0.6O12 (LLZTO) are promising solid electrolyte materials for all-solid-state lithium-metal batteries because of high ionic conductivity, low electronic leakage, and wide electrochemical stability window. While LLZTO has been frequently discussed to be stable against lithium metal anode, it is challenging to achieve and maintain good solid-on-solid wetting at the metal/ceramic interface in both processing and extended electrochemical cycling. Here we address the challenge by a powder...

Multifunctional dental resin composite with antibacterial and remineralization properties containing nMgO-BAG
In this study, magnesium oxide nanoparticles (nMgO) as an inorganic antimicrobial agent and bioactive glass (BAG) as a remineralization agent were simultaneously incorporated into the resin composite. With the addition of both nMgO and BAG, the resin composite showed an excellent antimicrobial effect compared to the resin composite with nMgO or BAG only. The remineralization capacity of demineralized dentin increased with the increasing content of BAG. Vickers hardness, compressive strength, and flexural strength of the resin composite with nMgO-BAG were not significantly affected compared to the ones with the same total f...

IJERPH, Vol. 20, Pages 4715: Urban Exotic Pollution: The Harmful Environmental Footprint for Health and Historical Architecture
n Silviu Gurlui The study in this paper was carried out as a result of the observation of pollution phenomena and foaming effects associated with anthropogenic activities, including street cleaning activity. The processes of dust binding used in order to reduce PM10 and PM 2.5 pollution has been proven to be inefficient, and even contributing to pollution with particulate matter. Our results suggest that the use of dust binders must be integrated in a technique that includes methods of removing agglomerated particle structures resulting from the process of coagulation or flocculation. These are the conclusions of the...

Hidden hydrogen: Earth may hold vast stores of a renewable, carbon-free fuel
IN THE SHADE of a mango tree, Mamadou Ngulo Konaré recounted the legendary event of his childhood. In 1987, well diggers had come to his village of Bourakébougou, Mali, to drill for water, but had given up on one dry borehole at a depth of 108 meters. “Meanwhile, wind was coming out of the hole,” Konaré told Denis Brière, a petrophysicist and vice president at Chapman Petroleum Engineering, in 2012. When one driller peered into the hole while smoking a cigarette, the wind exploded in his face. “He didn’t die, but he was burned,” Konaré continued. “And now we had a huge fire. The color of the fire...

Growth, metabolism and digestibility of Nile tilapia fed diets with solvent and extrusion-treated Jatropha curcas cake
AbstractPhysic nutJatropha curcas cake/meal obtained after oil extraction has a high protein content, however, the presence of antinutrients (trypsin inhibitor, lectin and phytate) and toxic compounds (phorbol esters) limit their use as an alternative feedstuff. Thus, the detoxification process in cake/meal is necessary to allow their inclusion in fish diets. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of solvent and extrusion-treated jatropha cake (SETJC) in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) diets on growth, body composition, nutrient utilization, metabolic and hematological responses, and digestibility of experime...
