Plants can absorb pollutants produced through industrial activities.In this research, biochemistry and lignin biosynthesis processes are studied in Pinus nigra and P.eldarica trees, that were exposed to pollutants from Sarcheshmeh copper complex and from the lagoon (snes Kentuiyeh ascontrol area (both Iran).Needles were collected in areas adjacent
Focal nodular hyperplasia with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome: A paraneoplastic condition or coincidental findings?
Background: Paraneoplastic glomerulonephritis (GN) are defined as glomerular lesions not directly related to tumor burden, invasion, or metastasis but induced by products of tumor cells.They are usually associated with solid tumors of gastrointestinal tract and hematological malignancies.Nephrotic syndrome is a rare manifestation of paraneoplastic
Increasing extreme precipitation variability plays a key role in future record-shattering event probability
Abstract Climate events that break records by large margins are a threat to society and ecosystems.Climate change is expected to increase the probability of such events, but quantifying these probabilities is challenging due to natural variability and limited data availability, especially for observations and very rare extremes.Here we estimate the
Identifying genetic relationships among tarsier populations in the islands of Bunaken National Park and mainland Sulawesi.
Eastern tarsiers (Tarsius tarsier complex) are small nocturnal primates endemic to Sulawesi Island and small adjacent islands of Indonesia.In 2004, the hybrid biogeography hypothesis predicted this species complex might contain 16 or more taxa, each corresponding to a region of endemism, based on: 1) geological evidence of the development of the ar
Novel immune scoring dynamic nomograms based on B7-H3, B7-H4, and HHLA2: Potential prediction in survival and immunotherapeutic efficacy for gallbladder cancer
BackgroundGallbladder cancer (GBC) is a mortal malignancy with limited therapeutic strategies.We aimed to develop novel immune scoring systems focusing on B7-H3, B7-H4, and HHLA2.We further investigated their potential clinical effects in lagoon (snes predicting survival and immunotherapeutic efficacy for GBC.MethodsThis was a retrospective cohort
