Abstract Purpose This study aimed to determine diagnostic thresholds for synovial fluid leucocyte count and polymorphonuclear (PMN) percentage to identify the diagnosis periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in patients with failed unicompartmental knee arthroplasties (UKAs).

Abstract Climate change is increasing the frequency, intensity, and stochasticity of extreme weather events such as heavy rainfall, storm‐induced mixing, or prolonged drought periods. This results in more variable regimes of dissolved nutrients and carbon in lakes and induces temporal fluctuations in the resource availability for plankton communities ...

Effects of increasing hydrostatic pressures on marine microbial enzymatic activities
Abstract High hydrostatic pressure is characteristic of the deep ocean and is presumed to influence microbial functions and viability. However, marine microbial processes are typically measured only at atmospheric pressure (0.1 MPa), limiting our understanding of pressure effects on the activities of microbes that sink as part of the biological carbon ...

Road salt pollution shifts urban stormwater ponds toward cyanobacterial dominance
Abstract Urban environments contend with an array of stressors, including salinization by deicing road salts. To advance understanding of how road salt pollution affects aquatic ecosystem functioning, we surveyed primary producers in 50 stormwater ponds in Brampton, Canada.

Direct Ambient Mass Spectrometry for Food, Beverage, and Agricultural Sample Analysis and Research
ABSTRACT Ambient and direct mass spectrometry (MS) methods are becoming increasingly used for the rapid analysis of food, beverage and agricultural samples. Novel ionization approaches combined with targeted, or untargeted workflows provide analytical outcomes within a greatly reduced time period compared to traditional separation science coupled with ...

Abstract The literature is inconsistent regarding differences in infection risk between central venous catheter types used for home parenteral nutrition (HPN). Our goal was to determine if significant differences exist in rates of infection and other complications between peripherally inserted central catheters, tunneled central venous catheters, and ...

Revisiting the taxonomy and nomenclature of Phyla, a small genus of Verbenaceae
Phyla is unique within Verbenaceae due to the presence of malpighiaceous hairs. Its taxonomy has long been marked by difficulties in defining species boundaries. The most recent revision of the genus recognized five species and three varieties. In this study, however, we recognize only two species and no varieties: P.

Abstract Tree roots modify the elastic and mechanical properties of soil. High‐resolution seismic refraction surveys offer a novel, noninvasive approach to characterize how roots impact the elastic properties of soil beneath trees. This study presents two perpendicular profiles of P‐wave (Vp$V_p$) and transversely polarized S‐wave (Vs$V_s$) velocities ...

This study systematically reviews essential oil (EO) profiles of Lippia turbinata (Verbenaceae) populations from Argentina. A meta‐analysis reveals significant chemical variability and distinct chemotypes, primarily defined by limonene, carvone, β‐caryophyllene, and caryophyllene oxide.

Metal‐organic frameworks, quantum dots and their composite are used as electrochemical sensors at the surface of a gold electrode for bisphenol A (BPA) determination. Electrochemical response of the composite modified gold electrode shows excellence performance with a very low detection limit.
