Abstract Identifying environmental consequences of international trade has a crucial role in constructing and planning strategies of any country, especially in developing countries that are currently witnessing a significant increase in trade openness; however, little efforts are made to investigate the environmental consequences of trade openness. The paper attempts to investigate the dynamic relationship between trade openness and environmental pollutants incorporating potential...
Abstract A large percentage of flunixin, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug widely used for treating livestock, is excreted in intact form and thus potentially available for environmental transport. As the fate of flunixin in the environment is unknown, our objective was to quantify sorption, desorption, and transformation in five agricultural soils and manure using batch equilibrium methods. Concentrations of flunixin and degradation products were determined by high performance...
Abstract The technology used in the production and exploration of shale gas creates a new source of clean energy. However, during the processes, large amounts of water-based drilling cuttings (WDC) are generated. Phosphogypsum (PG) is a by-product from the industry of phosphate fertilizer. Approximately, 5 tons of PG are generated for the production of per ton of phosphoric acid. The pile up of WDC and PG lead to severe risks of nearby soil and surface water. This paper paid attention...
Abstract The effect of climate warming on soil organic carbon (SOC) of sediment in wetlands is important for accurately projecting SOC content. Thus, understanding the mechanism influencing SOC content under climate warming is necessary. Field investigation and a laboratory incubation experiment were conducted in Hulunbeier steppe wetland during 2016 and 2017. Four types of wetland were selected to incubate with ambient temperature and temperature increased by 2.5 °C. The results...
Abstract Uses of iron oxide nanoparticles have increased in the last decade. The increased application marked a concern regarding their fate and behavior in the environment. Especially towards the aquatic ecosystems, as the ultimate descend of these iron oxide nanoparticles are aquatic bodies. The greater surface area per mass compared with larger-sized materials of the same chemistry renders these nanoparticles biologically more active. Therefore, it is imperative to assess their...
Abstract The present study was designed to investigate the effects of disease on time spent by family and hired labor on farm activities. The effect of illness on cost incurred on farm activities and revenue earned from agriculture has also been examined in detail. The reason behind choosing malaria is because of its strong association with the quality of surrounding environment especially in the case of farm workers who are compelled to work in the environmental conditions quite...
Abstract Flood is found to be a frequent phenomenon. Over the past few decades, Pakistan has been the home of climate-related disasters like floods. This paper attempts to examine the effect of floods on the rural communities; those are vulnerable to floods, and their livelihood patterns were damaged due to flooding events in Hazara Division. This research study assessed the causes, the impact, and the aftermath of flooding and their link with climate change in Hazara Division...
Abstract In freshwater ecosystems, wetlands are generally distinguished from deep-water ecosystems by 2-m water level as boundary. However, the difference of sediment microbial communities between wetlands and deep-water ecosystems is still unclear. We combined 16S rRNA gene sequencing and community metabolic prediction to compare sediment microbial communities and predicted metabolic genes of wetlands (natural and constructed wetlands) and deep-water ecosystems (river and lake)...

Abstract Background Whether revascularization should be performed as multivessel intervention at the time of index procedure (MV‐index), staged procedure (MV‐staged), or culprit only intervention (COI) in patients with multivessel disease (MVD) presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is unclear. We performed a systematic review and network meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials to assess the optimal revascularization strategy in this patient population. Methods PubMed,...
Abstract Objectives We aimed to evaluate the effect of technical aspects of fetal aortic valvuloplasty (FAV) on procedural risks and pregnancy outcomes. Background FAV is performed in cases of severe mid‐gestation aortic stenosis with the goal of preventing hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). Methods The International Fetal Cardiac Intervention Registry was queried for fetuses who underwent FAV from 2002 to 2018, excluding one high‐volume center. Results The...

Abstract The study of translation initiation in prokaryotes assumes that there should be a mechanism different from the canonical model, which postulates the formation of the pre-initiation complex through the interaction of the Shine-Dalgarno sequence (SD) at the 5′-end of mRNA and the anti-Shine-Dalgarno site at the 3′-end of 16S rRNA. In this paper we’ve studied the effect of TPS (Translation-initiation Promoting Site) on β-glucuronidase expression in E. coli cells at different...

Abstract According to the 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) classification of central nervous system tumors, diffuse astrocytic and oligodendroglial tumors are differentiated by the presence of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 or 2 (IDH1/2) mutation and the combined loss of the short arm of chromosome 1 and the long arm of chromosome 19 (1p/19q co-deletion). IDH-mutant astrocytoma often has p53 and alpha-thalassemia/mental retardation syndrome X-linked (ATRX) mutation, showing the...

Abstract Over 500,000 people experience homelessness in the United States on any given night.1 Skin disease is prevalent in homeless individuals, and increased morbidity has been attributed to environmental exposures, lack of resource access, and inconsistent healthcare.1,2 In this case‐control study, we identify differences in dermatologists' management of common conditions in homeless relative to non‐homeless patients that may contribute to healthcare disparities in the homeless.
Abstract Background Psoriasis is associated with risk factors for serious infections, but the independent relationship between psoriasis and serious infection is as yet unclear. Objective To determine whether people with psoriasis have a higher risk of hospitalisation due to any infection; respiratory infections; soft tissue and skin infections; or a higher risk of death due to infection. Methods We conducted a cohort study of people (≥18) with psoriasis using the UK Clinical...
Abstract Since approximately 12% of melanoma survivors will develop another melanoma, skin self‐examination (SSE) is relevant.1,2 Structured SSE training with a partner may overcome challenges including a) motivation to undertake SSE; b) competence to recognize concerning lesions, and c) difficulty with long‐term maintenance (≥1 year).3,4 Partner‐assisted SSE and subsequent clinical presentation to a dermatologist for concerning moles rely on self‐management, adoption of decision rules, and taking...
Abstract We were fascinated and heartened to read this very helpful commentary1 on the study by Redhu et al2 who describe some precise physico‐biological pathways that link skin barrier disruption to itch in atopic dermatitis (AD). This may well explain how curtailing scratching in AD with the simple behavioural technique of habit reversal can so dramatically improve the condition3. It is important to note that scratching in AD over time often becomes not only a response to itch, but also to...
Abstract Immunosuppressed solid organ transplant recipients (SOTR) have a high burden of AK, but have been excluded from clinical trials of ingenol mebutate 0.015% gel. This leaves dermatologists and transplant teams to extrapolate safety data from immunocompetent patients or from two case reports of use in SOTR. This single‐arm, open‐label investigator‐initiated study investigated the safety and tolerability of topical ingenol mebutate 0.015% gel in SOTR.
Abstract Infantile hemangiomas (IHs) are common benign vascular tumours in infants (estimated prevalence 5% to 10%).1 Oral propranolol is currently the first‐line treatment for complicated proliferative IHs.2 It is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency for treating complicated IHs, but questions remain regarding the optimal modalities of use.3 We conducted an international survey to assess practices in prescribing oral propranolol for IHs among practitioners...

Chloroquine phosphate, when used without a prescription and supervision of a healthcare provider, can cause serious health consequences, including death. Clinicians and public health officials should discourage the public from misusing non-pharmaceutical chloroquine phosphate (a chemical used in home aquariums). Clinicians should advise patients and the public that chloroquine, and the related compound hydroxychloroquine, should be used only under the supervision of a healthcare provider as prescribed...

Retroperitoneal liposarcomas (RPL) are rare tumours that are challenging to manage surgically, and generally respond poorly to chemotherapy. They possess high local recurrence rates and in certain subtypes can metastasise. The retroperitoneum represents the second most common site of origin of these tumours after the extremities. There is general consensus in the sarcoma community that surgery to remove RPL with clear margins is the most beneficial intervention to improve recurrence free survival,...
