Cross-sectional and Longitudinal Associations Between Metal Mixtures and Serum C3, C4: Result from the Manganese ‑exposed Workers Healthy Cohort
Biol Trace Elem Res. 2024 Mar 16. doi: 10.1007/s12011-024-04143-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExposure to metal mixtures compromises the immune system, with the complement system connecting innate and adaptive immunity. Herein, we sought to explore the relationships between blood cell metal mixtures and the third and fourth components of serum complement (C3, C4). A total of 538 participants were recruited in November 2017, and 289 participants were followed up in November 2021. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis at baseline and a longitudinal analysis over 4 years. Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (...

Fabrication and evaluation of Dillenia indica-carrageenan blend hybrid superporous hydrogel reinforced with green synthesized MgO nanoparticles as an effective wound dressing material
Int J Biol Macromol. 2024 Mar 14:130835. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130835. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAn unexplored hybrid superporous hydrogel (MHSPH) of Dillenia indica fruit mucilage (DIFM) and carrageenan blend embedded with green synthesized magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MNPs) is utilized as an effective wound dressing material with appreciable mechanical strength in murine model. The prepared MNPs and the optimized MHSPH were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT- IR) spectroscopy. Size, zeta potential and morphology of MNPs was assessed u...

Standard medical therapy with vs. without nebulised magnesium for children with asthma decompensation
Conclusion: In children with asthma exacerbation, treatment with nebulised magnesium and SMT was associated with a statistically significant, but small improvement in predicted PEFR and respiratory rate, as compared with SMT alone.What is Known:• Magnesium sulfate has bronchodilating properties and aids in the treatment of asthma exacerbation when administered intravenously.• There is no significant evidence of benefit of nebulised magnesium as an adjunct therapy to the standard medical treatment for children with asthma exacerbations.What is New:• Our study suggests nebulised magnesium sulfate may have a statistical...

Steric and energetic studies on the influence of cellulose on the adsorption effectiveness of Mg trapped hydroxyapatite for enhanced remediation of chlorpyrifos and omethoate pesticides
Int J Biol Macromol. 2024 Mar 13:130711. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130711. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMagnesium-trapped hydroxyapatite (Mg.HP) was hybridized with cellulose fiber to produce a bio-composite (CLF/HP) with enhanced adsorption affinities for two types of toxic pesticides (chlorpyrifos (CF) and omethoate (OM)). The enhancement influence of the hybridized cellulose on the adsorption performances of Mg.HP was illustrated based on the determined steric and energetic factors. The computed CF and OM adsorption performances of CLF/HP during the saturation phases are 279.8 mg/g and 317.9 mg/g, respectively, whic...
