PdIr bimetallic nanozyme engineered metal-organic frameworks integrated dual-mode sensor toward Stx2 detection in food.

Shiga toxin II (Stx2) has attracted extensive attention due to its toxicity and pathogenicity, making the development of sensitive detection methods urgent. This study constructed a dual-mode sensing platform for the sensitive detection of Stx2 in food. Composite material UIO-66@PdIr with peroxidase-like activity and fluorescent properties was synthesized and combined with cDNA as the signal probe, while aptamer-modified magnetic beads served as the capture probe. Specific binding of Stx2 to the aptamer triggered the release of the signal probe, enabling colorimetric and fluorescence signal readout. The colorimetric mode showed a linear range of 0.05-100 ng/mL with an LOD of 0.039 ng/mL, and the fluorescence mode exhibited 0.01-1000 ng/mL with an LOD of 0.0097 ng/mL. Additionally, this method was successfully applied to the detection of Stx2 in food, and the recovery rates were 94.33% ∼ 102.20%. It indicated that the constructed sensor holds great practical potential for Stx2 detection.

A MIL-88@Ru-based molecularly imprinted electrochemiluminescence sensor for highly selective and sensitive detection of enrofloxacin residues in animal-derived foods.

Using a metal-organic framework (MOF) - supported Ru(bpy)32+ (MIL-88@Ru) composite luminescent material, this study innovatively adopted electropolymerization to fabricate a molecularly imprinted polymer-based electrochemiluminescent (MIP-ECL) sensor for enrofloxacin (ENR) detection in animal-derived foods. Systematic investigation of the ECL luminescence and ENR's quenching mechanism confirmed that the sensor integrates ECL's high sensitivity and MIP's high specificity, enabling rapid and accurate recognition of ENR. Experimental results show a good linear response in the range of 1 nmol/L-20 μmol/L (R2 = 0.99), a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.28 nmol/L, as well as excellent selectivity and stability. Recoveries of ENR in all investigated matrices ranged from 97.7% to 106.4%, confirming the reliability of the established method. This ECL-MIP coupling strategy provides a new technical approach and application references for the efficient detection of trace pollutants in food safety and environmental monitoring fields.

L-glutamine supplementation improves porcine sperm quality and early embryo development during in vitro fertilization.

L-glutamine (Gln), as a key additive in porcine sperm capacitation medium and in vitro fertilization (IVF) systems, has been shown to significantly improve sperm motility and survival rates. However, its precise roles during porcine IVF and subsequent early embryonic development remain elusive. This study utilized an IVF model in pigs to investigate the effects of glutamine on sperm quality and embryonic development. We found that Gln supplementation during sperm treatment significantly improved sperm quality, as evidenced by reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and early apoptosis, while enhancing calcium ion levels and endoplasmic reticulum activity. Supplementing glutamine during embryo culture reduced polyspermy rates, promoted zygotic genome activation (ZGA) and accumulation of 5-ethynyluridine (EU) and histone modifications (H3K4me3 and H3K27ac) at the two-cell and four-cell stages, increased blastocyst formation rates and total cell numbers, while simultaneously reducing DNA damage and early apoptosis during the blastocyst stage. In summary, these findings demonstrate that Gln enhances porcine IVF outcomes by improving sperm quality, reducing polyspermy, and facilitating early embryonic development, thereby providing a basis for optimizing culture systems.

Design of an innovative framework based hybrid catalyst for simultaneous and sensitive monitoring of food additive and preservative of vanillin and nitrite in direct samples.

As vanillin (VAN) and nitrite (NIT) contamination in the food chain poses substantial threats to environmental and public health, rapid and portable detection is essential. The present study presents the first electrochemical sensor report based on a hybrid composite of Ni-TPA-MOF and MoS2/Co3O4. The oxidation of VAN and NIT exhibited sharp peaks and less over-potential on Ni-TPA-MOF/MoS2/Co3O4/GCE than on control electrode surfaces. On modified composite electrode surfaces, pH and scan rate were investigated for VAN and NIT. Further, the oxidation current exhibited high linearity at VAN and NIT concentrations of 5 nM-1000 μM and 3 nM-1250 μM, with detection limits of 0.102 nM and 0.073 nM (S/N = 3). We also applied anti-interfering ability (five/ten-fold excess of co-interfering compounds) and practical tests to various food-based real samples, with high recoveries of 98.85-102.41%. This study highlights the catalytic properties of Ni-TPA-MOF/MoS2/Co3O4 and demonstrates the sensor as a promising tool for food safety.

Proteomics in environmental pollution research: Advances, challenges, and future directions.

Environmental proteomics has emerged as a powerful approach for elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying pollutant-induced biological effects. Although this field has developed rapidly, the systematic review of recent proteomics applications in environmental pollution research remains limited. This review explored the emerging roles of toxicoproteomics in biomarker discovery and mechanistic elucidation, as well as ecotoxicoproteomics in ecological risk assessment and bioremediation strategies. Here, we review the field, highlighting recent trends such as the integration of proteomics with genomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics to provide a comprehensive view of biological responses to environmental stressors. We further discuss the growing application of artificial intelligence in improving proteomics data interpretation and accelerating biomarker discovery. In addition, recent technological advances in environmental proteomics are highlighted, including next-generation tissue microarray proteomics, nanoscale proteomics, single-cell proteomics, and spatial proteomics. Despite its potential, proteomics faces challenges, such as high operational costs, computational complexity in analysis, and technical limitations in low-abundance protein detection. We propose that the convergence of proteomics with artificial intelligence and multi-omics approaches offers promising solutions to these challenges, enhancing the practical application of proteomics in environmental monitoring and risk assessment.

Quantitative assessment of the fingerprint evidential value using machine learning.

Fingerprints as physical evidence have long supported criminal investigation and adjudication. In practice, however, fingerprint identification relies mainly on examiners' experience. Furthermore, expert opinions tend to be categorical, even though the opinions with the same conclusion could differ substantially in evidential strength. To quantitatively assess fingerprint evidential value, this study proposes a machine learning-based framework as an interpretable decision-support tool. A lightweight residual one-dimensional convolutional neural network was constructed, incorporating channel recalibration and a similarity-driven attention mechanism to learn adaptive contribution weights for different matched minutiae (minutiae for short). Controlled experiments revealed that the predicted evidential value increased with the number of minutiae and was significantly influenced by the quality of minutiae. With 10 minutiae, the mean predicted scores were 4.49, 7.00, and 9.09 for blurred, moderately blurred, and clear minutiae, respectively. Multiple regression analysis indicated that replacing a pair of blurred minutiae with a pair of clear minutiae increased the score by 0.492, whereas replacing it with a pair of moderately blurred minutiae increased the score by only 0.216. By mapping predicted scores to graded levels of evidential strength, the framework contributes to a paradigm shift from categorical expert opinions to graded ones, helping courts evaluate fingerprint evidence more scientifically.

Recent advances in Strongyloides screening, diagnostics, therapeutics, and management.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Strongyloidiasis affects an estimated 30-100 million people globally and can have life-threatening consequences in immunocompromised hosts, yet it remains underdiagnosed due to limited access and performance of available diagnostics. Novel assays and anthelmintics may reshape screening, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention for at-risk populations. RECENT FINDINGS: Advances in molecular diagnostics coupled with robust stool extraction methods have supplanted traditional parasitologic methods in settings where nucleic acid amplification is feasible. Transition from standard immunoglobulin G (IgG)-based immunoassays to the new IgG- and IgG4-based rapid diagnostic tests using recombinant Strongyloides stercoralis nematode immunodominant E antigen (NIE) and/or S. stercoralis immunoreactive antigen (SsIR) has facilitated serologic screening at the point of care. The World Health Organization now conditionally recommends community-wide ivermectin mass drug administration in highly endemic settings. Regarding new treatment options, moxidectin is noninferior to ivermectin with 93-94% cure rates and a longer half-life, while emodepside shows 80-90% predicted cure rates in early trials and offers a mechanistically distinct option. Understanding of immunosuppressed populations at risk for hyperinfection has expanded, prompting updated screening recommendations. SUMMARY: Serologic and molecular tools are improving screening and diagnosis, and moxidectin and emodepside may broaden treatment options, but data in severe disease and special populations remain limited. Priorities include harmonized screening algorithms and prospective studies in high-risk groups.

Impact of neoprene wetsuits on lung volumes and work of breathing: implications for military diver safety and performance.

INTRODUCTION: Neoprene wetsuits may impose mechanical constraints on the chest wall, potentially altering respiratory function. This study investigated the impact of neoprene wetsuits on lung volumes, airway mechanics, and work of breathing (WOB) in healthy male divers. METHODS: A randomised crossover trial was conducted with 31 male divers at the Royal Netherlands Navy Diving Medical Centre. Participants underwent pulmonary function testing, including spirometry, body plethysmography, the forced oscillation technique (FOT), and diffusion capacity measurements, both with and without a hoodless standardised 5 mm neoprene full body wetsuit with a neoprene neck seal. Primary outcomes included changes in forced vital capacity (FVC), functional residual capacity (FRC), airway resistance (Raw), reactance (Xrs), and WOB. RESULTS: Wearing a neoprene wetsuit led to statistically significant reductions in FVC (2.8%, P < 0.05), forced expiration in one second (2.9%, P < 0.05), FRC (4.0%, P < 0.05), and expiratory reserve volume (10.9%, P < 0.05), alongside increases in inspiratory capacity and tidal volume. Raw increased significantly (P < 0.05), while the FOT revealed altered airway mechanics, evidenced by increased Xrs at multiple frequencies (P < 0.05). Diffusion capacity remained unchanged, suggesting preserved alveolar-capillary function. CONCLUSIONS: Neoprene wetsuits induce mechanically restrictive effects on the chest wall, reducing static and dynamic lung volumes and increasing WOB. While these changes may not be clinically relevant at rest, their impact needs to be determined during strenuous or prolonged dives, particularly when combined with other equipment that limits thorax excursions. Future research should explore the effects of the military 5 mm wetsuit under immersed conditions to better understand their operational impact on diver performance and safety.

Stretched penile length in boys with hypospadias: Population-based analysis using validated nomogram.

BACKGROUND: Hypospadias affects 1 in 200-300 male births. Parents are often concerned about penile adequacy beyond the urethral defect itself, yet few studies have systematically compared stretched penile length (SPL) in hypospadias against population-based reference standards. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate SPL distribution patterns in boys with Types I and II hypospadias and compare them with established normative data. METHODS: The authors studied 876 consecutive boys aged 1-14 years with unoperated Types I (distal) and II (mid-shaft) hypospadias. Two observers independently measured SPL using the validated SPLINT technique. The SPL measurements were compared against age-matched normative data from 1276 Indian children. Exact binomial probability tests were used for percentile distributions, chi-square tests for subtype comparisons and t-tests for mean deviations. RESULTS: The cohort included 479 Type I and 397 Type II cases. SPL distribution showed a marked leftward shift: 71% fell below the 50th percentile (expected 50%, p < 0.001) and 41.5% below the 25th percentile. Lower percentiles were overrepresented, 20.7% were below the 10th percentile and 20.8% in the 10th-25th range. Upper percentiles were depleted: only 7.4% in the 75th-90th range and 1.7% above the 90th percentile (all p < 0.001). Mean SPL was reduced by 6.8% (95% CI: -8.18 to -5.42%) in Type I and 7.5% (95% CI: -9.05 to -5.92%) in Type II. The two subtypes showed no significant distributional difference (χ2 = 6.22, p = 0.18), suggesting that meatal position does not predict SPL reduction. CONCLUSIONS: Boys with distal and mid-shaft hypospadias show clinically meaningful SPL reduction that follows a continuous distribution rather than an all-or-none pattern. SPL reduction appears independent of meatal position. These findings support routine SPL assessment using population-specific references and can guide preoperative counselling.

Engineering bubble structures as Cas12a activators for highly sensitive monitoring of WRN helicase function.

The Werner syndrome helicase (WRN) is a critical synthetic lethal target in microsatellite instability cancers, essential for resolving complex genomic structures like replication bubbles and R-loops. However, strategies to simultaneously discriminate WRN activity on DNA versus DNA-RNA substrates in living cells are lacking. Here, we developed a structure-specific CRISPR/Cas12a biosensing strategy to visualize WRN functional activity by engineering bubble-structure probes. These probes were rationally designed to structurally mimic DNA replication bubbles and R-loop associated DNA-RNA hybrids. Upon specific unwinding by WRN, the probes release a sequestered activator strand that triggers Cas12a trans-cleavage, effectively converting the unwinding event into an amplified fluorescent signal. This assay achieves low picomolar sensitivity (LODs: 5.6-6.0 pM) and exceptional selectivity against homologous RecQ helicases. Uniquely, this strategy enables the parallel quantification of WRN activity on both substrate types, providing insights into distinct WRN-mediated pathways for resolving genomic stress. We further demonstrated the strategy's utility by visualizing endogenous WRN dynamics in living cells and profiling the efficacy of small-molecule inhibitors. This work offers a powerful molecular toolkit for dissecting WRN biology and facilitating high-throughput drug screening in targeted cancer therapy.

Double-Axis Maxillary Skeletal Expander Suggests Higher Expansion Efficiency in Early Activation: A Finite Element Analysis.

INTRODUCTION: Conventional single-axis maxillary skeletal expanders (MSE) have some drawbacks, such as limited control over maxillary expansion and possible asymmetric expansion between the anterior nasal spine (ANS) and posterior nasal spine (PNS). This report introduces a double-axis maxillary skeletal expander (DAMSE) concept to overcome these drawbacks and enhance the efficiency of maxillary skeletal expansion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five different DAMSE designs were compared with a conventional single-axis MSE. Finite element analysis was performed to analyse their expansion efficiency, stress magnitude and distribution occurring in a simplified bone model. RESULTS: DAMSE outperformed the single-axis MSE and provided better control over ANS and PNS expansion. During early activation, the highest expansion efficiency (31.7%) was achieved by DAMSE Model V, 13% more efficient than the single-axis MSE. This efficiency was increased to 100.8% by combining the DAMSE Model V with midpalatal suture surgery. However, with the simplified bone model, the current study could not demonstrate that DAMSE can resolve the issue of asymmetric expansion between ANS and PNS. CONCLUSIONS: An appropriately designed DAMSE can be a promising tool for maxillary expansion treatment. DAMSE offers more efficient treatment than the conventional single-axis MSE while maintaining similar levels of patient comfort and invasiveness.

BACKGROUND: The Transverse Preputial Onlay Island Flap (TPOIF) technique is frequently used in cases with mild chordee and small glans. This study's objective was to evaluate the surgical outcomes of this technique at our center. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study consisted of hypospadias patients diagnosed with small glans (diameter <14 mm) and mild chordee (<30°), underwent TPOIF urethroplasty. RESULTS: A total of 64 cases were included in this study. The mean glans diameter was 10.6 mm. The complication rate was 9.4 %. CONCLUSIONS: The TPOIF technique provides encouraging results for treating hypospadias with small glans, though larger studies are needed.

Effects of Vacuum Compression Therapy on Healing of Chronic Lower Limb Ulcers: A Randomised Controlled Study.

Chronic lower limb ulcers remain difficult to manage when unresponsive to conventional treatment. This study evaluated the clinical and physiological effects of vacuum compression therapy on wound healing and quality of life. Fifty patients with chronic lower limb ulcers were randomised to receive 12 sessions of vacuum compression therapy plus standard care or standard care alone over 4 weeks. Wound dimensions, exudate, pain intensity and quality of life were assessed at baseline and post-treatment. Estimated wound volume was calculated as length × width × depth. Tissue oxygenation was measured at the dorsum of the foot in the experimental group. The vacuum compression therapy group showed greater improvements in wound width, depth, volume and quality of life. Estimated wound volume decreased by 61% in the intervention group, whereas no statistically significant volume reduction was observed in controls. Local tissue oxygenation in the experimental group increased by 43%. Baseline wound size was associated with poorer quality of life. Vacuum compression therapy may enhance wound healing and quality of life in patients with chronic lower limb ulcers. Observed increases in local tissue oxygenation represent exploratory physiological findings within the treated cohort that warrant controlled comparative evaluation. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT07737184.

Bipolar circumcision with mucocutaneous plane separation: A safe, precise, blood-sparing, dressing-free approach.

Conventional circumcision techniques may result in bleeding, limited control of the mucosal collar, and the need for dressings. We describe a modified bipolar technique enabling near-bloodless dissection with precise mucosal trimming. Following bipolar division of the preputial skin, the inner mucosa is separated using two forceps and retracted proximally, creating a protective plane for safe skin adjustment. The mucosal collar is trimmed with scissors. The wound is closed with sutures and 2-octyl cyanoacrylate, avoiding dressings. This technique has been performed in 55 consecutive cases (median age: 2 years and 2 months; range: 0 days-17 years and 5 months) with no reported complications over a median follow-up of 2 years and 7 months (range: 3 months-4 years and 1 month).

Metabolic Stress Testing Reveals Persistent Lipid-Handling Dysfunction in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Despite Exercise Training.

AIM: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction, yet baseline metabolomic studies show inconsistent findings. We investigated whether metabolic abnormalities in PCOS emerge under physiological stress and how these responses are modified by exercise training. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twelve women with PCOS and 10 controls completed hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic clamps with randomised saline or lipid infusion, before and after 8 weeks of supervised exercise. Plasma metabolomics (163 metabolites) were measured at baseline, post-infusion and post-clamp. Linear mixed-effects models assessed Group × Timepoint × Intervention interactions. RESULTS: No baseline metabolite differences were observed between groups. A significant three-way interaction (p = 0.008) indicated condition-dependent trajectory divergence. Post hoc analysis revealed a specific divergence during post-exercise lipid challenge (p = 0.048). Women with PCOS showed reduced suppression of ether-linked phosphatidylcholines during insulin-stimulated lipid loading (PC ae C44:4, p = 0.031), despite exercise-induced improvements in fitness and normalisation of amino acid profiles. Exploratory metabolite ratios suggested impaired substrate coordination under stress. CONCLUSIONS: Metabolic defects in PCOS are stress-dependent and not detectable at rest. Exercise training improves resting metabolism but reveals persistent impairment in adaptive lipid handling during combined insulin and lipid challenges, suggesting impaired coordination of substrate supply during metabolic stress.

Infertility treatment in women with epilepsy: A systematic review.

BACKGROUND: The impact of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) on seizure control in women with epilepsy remains incompletely understood. METHODS: A systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. EMBASE, MEDLINE, CINAHL, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library were searched from inception to March 2025. Eligible studies included observational studies and case-based reports involving women undergoing infertility treatment. RESULTS: A total of 1216 publications were identified, of which four studies met the inclusion criteria, including case reports, a case series, and a cohort study. These studies included 16 women aged 25-46 years undergoing infertility treatment, all but one of whom had epilepsy. Interventions involved in vitro fertilization (IVF), ovulation induction, and hormonal therapies. Patients were treated with a range of antiseizure medications (ASMs), including carbamazepine, clobazam, lamotrigine, levetiracetam, oxcarbazepine, valproate, and zonisamide, either as monotherapy or in combination. Seizure frequency was generally stable, with most patients maintaining baseline seizure control. Seizure exacerbations were uncommon and primarily associated with hormonal therapy and reduced ASM levels, particularly reduced lamotrigine levels. Reported events included breakthrough seizures in the setting of decreased lamotrigine concentrations, seizure clusters associated with follitropin beta, and a new-onset seizure following dehydroepiandrosterone exposure. Across studies, multiple ART attempts resulted in live births with different ASM regimens, as well as in patients not receiving ASMs. CONCLUSION: Available evidence suggests that ART is feasible in women with epilepsy, with most patients maintaining stable seizure control. Hormonal therapy may affect ASM pharmacokinetics and seizure threshold, thereby warranting close monitoring. Larger prospective studies are needed to better define ASM-specific effects and optimize care.

Integrated photoelectrocatalytic reduction and oxidation processes to achieve efficient degradation of fluoxetine in pharmaceutical wastewater.

Fluorinated organic compounds have been frequently detected in aquatic environments, with the widespread use of fluorinated drugs. The existing processes of urban sewage treatment plants are difficult to completely remove these pollutants containing the persistent C-F bonds. In this work, an integrated system of UV-activated sulfite and UV-assisted electrochemical oxidation was innovatively constructed for efficient degradation of fluoxetine. For the UV-activated sulfite unit system, when the sulfite dosage was 0.5 mmol/L and the initial pH was about 10, the defluorination efficiency of 5 mg/L fluoxetine wastewater under nitrogen atmosphere was about 98 %. Subsequently, the UV-assisted electrochemical oxidation unit system was employed to treat the reduced wastewater mentioned above. When the sodium chloride dosage was 25 mmol/L, the initial pH was about 5, and the current density was 30 mA/cm2, the total organic carbon (TOC) removal of the wastewater arrived at 65 %. Active species capture experiments and ESR tests confirmed that hydrated electrons, hydroxyl, and chlorine radicals were the main components for the efficient degradation of fluoxetine. According to the analysis of Fukui function and HPLC-MS, the degradation pathway of pollutants was proposed including defluorination and mineralization. Meanwhile, the toxicity of intermediates was predicted using the ECOSAR program. In addition, the verification test of actual wastewater treatment indicated that the defluorination and TOC removal efficiency of fluorouracil by the integrated system were similar to those for fluoxetine. This work provided a new approach for the efficient degradation of fluorinated organic pollutants in pharmaceutical wastewater.

Molecular Diagnostics for WHO Priority Bacterial Pathogens: A Bibliometric Mapping of Diagnostic Platforms, Resistance Markers, and Antimicrobial Resistance Research Trends.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) constrains effective treatment and carries implications for infection control, surveillance, and public health. The World Health Organization (WHO) priority bacterial pathogen framework has intensified the need for diagnostic innovation by redefining research priorities around organisms combining high disease burden with complex resistance profiles. Molecular diagnostics have accordingly moved beyond culture-based workflows, integrating rapid pathogen identification, resistance-marker detection, genomic surveillance, and clinical decision support. The present study conducted a bibliometric mapping of the literature on WHO priority pathogens. Rather than addressing resistance at a general level or a single pathogen or technology, it integrates priority pathogens, molecular platforms, and resistance markers within a single framework, tracing their joint thematic and temporal evolution along an explicit pathogen-platform-marker axis. Scopus-indexed articles and reviews (2000-2025) were retrieved, yielding 1746 publications after screening adapted from the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Analyses used Bibliometrix/Biblioshiny, R, and VOSviewer. The literature expanded markedly after 2018, led by China and the United States. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Enterococcus faecium, and the Enterobacterales-carbapenemase axis constituted the principal thematic cores, whereas conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR)/nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT) and whole-genome sequencing were the dominant platforms. Overall, the field has evolved from pathogen detection into an AMR-centered translational domain encompassing resistance prediction, genomic epidemiology, surveillance, and clinical decision support. Diagnostic development, stewardship, and surveillance depend on hybrid workflows coupling rapid marker-targeted assays with genome-based characterization, delivering actionable resistance within clinically meaningful timeframes, and extending coverage to underrepresented pathogens and platforms.
