Biodiversity Impact of Green Roofs and Constructed Wetlands as Progressive Eco-Technologies in Urban Areas [PDF]

, 2019
The total amount of sealed surfaces is increasing in many urban areas, which presents a challenge for sewerage systems and wastewater treatment plants when extreme rainfall events occur. One promising solution approach is the application of decentralized

A personal 360° view of applications of ‘biomimetic’ molecular recognition

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Molecular recognition between biological molecules has formed the basis for innumerable applications in biotechnology for the last seven decades or so. Techniques such as affinity chromatography, solid‐phase and aqueous two‐phase extraction, affinity precipitation, biomimetic catalytic systems, biosensors and molecular imprinting all exploit ...

Pediatric vascular compression of the esophagus: Endoluminal functional lumen imaging probe as a complement to imaging and endoscopy

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Vascular anomalies can cause extrinsic esophageal compression, leading to dysphagia or feeding difficulties in children. Diagnosis typically relies on imaging and endoscopy, which may under‐ or overestimate functional narrowing. Endoluminal functional lumen imaging probe (EndoFLIP) provides luminal parameters in real‐time, but its ...

Environmental ecosystem services assessment based on urban green infrastructure structure indicators with case study in Shanghai [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2019
Urban green infrastructure (UGI) attracts much interest because they could provide urban ecosystem services (UES). Among all various methodologies, the UGI structure-based modelling is favored for advantages in physiological mechanisms.

Simultaneous caustic ingestion in siblings with divergent treatment and the consequences of health inequity

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Accidental caustic ingestions are uncommon but can lead to serious esophageal injury. Clinicians may lack experience grading mucosal findings, creating circumstances for treatment misalignment because management recommendations depend on severity.

Helicobacter pylori infection a risk for upper gastrointestinal diseases among patients in North Central Nigeria

Nigerian Journal of Medicine, 2021
Background: Since the discovery of the Upper Gastrointestinal (UGI) fiber optic endoscope machine in 1868 and following the discovery of Helicobacter pylori (H- Pylori) infection and its association with most gastroduodenal diseases in 1983 by Robin ...

Coupling of both a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain boosts Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine editing in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Fusions of a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain produced effective Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine base editors, with improved C‐to‐T and A‐to‐G base editing efficiency and expanded editing window. Generated herbicide‐resistant rice germplasm by using these base editors demonstrates their potential for precise ...
