Improvement in Lung Clearance Index and Chest CT Scores with Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor Treatment in People with Cystic Fibrosis Aged 12 Years and Older - The RECOVER Study
CONCLUSIONS: ETI is associated with substantial improvements in LCI2.5, spirometry and PRAGMA-CF CT scores in people with CF aged 12 years and older. ETI led to improved nutrition and quality of life. People in the F508del/F508del group have significantly lower sweat chloride on ETI treatment compared to the F508del/MF group. Clinical trial registration available at www.CLINICALTRIALS: gov, ID: NCT04602468.PMID:37703083 | DOI:10.1164/rccm.202308-1317OC

A first assessment of microplastic contamination in the snow of Ankara, Turkey
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 9. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29594-3. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMicroplastics (MPs), affecting aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, have spread globally. The atmosphere is known as a pollutant acceptor and carrier among other ecosystems. However, the fate and amount of microplastics in the atmosphere have been the subject of less research. Therefore, it is quite important to study the amount and properties of microplastics in atmospheric fallout. The main purpose of this article is to discover microplastics in fresh snow samples collected in three different regions of Ankara and to ide...

Parental occupational exposure to solvents and risk of developing testicular germ cell tumors among sons: a French nationwide case-control study (TESTIS study)
CONCLUSION: Overall, no solid association was found between parental occupational exposure to solvents and TGCT risk. The association found with maternal occupational exposure to fuels and petroleum solvents among older men needs further investigation.PMID:37649372 | DOI:10.5271/sjweh.4102

Preparation of amphoteric double network hydrogels based on low methoxy pectin: Adsorption kinetics and removal of anionic and cationic dyes
The objective of this research was to devise a functional hydrogel was synthesized using pectin (PE), acrylic acid (AA), dimethyldiallyl ammonium chloride (DC), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), designed to adsorb both cationic and anionic dyes concurrently. The low methoxy pectin formed double network hydrogel through chemical and physical crosslinking with AA and PVA respectively. DC is combined into the hydrogel system through copolymerization reaction. Analysis of hydrogel's physicochemical properties was conducted using techniques such as infrared spectroscopy, texture analysis, thermogravimetry, and scanning electron micr...

Improving the Performance of Poly(caprolactone)-Cellulose Acetate-Tannic Acid Tubular Scaffolds by Mussel-Inspired Coating
In this study, tubular scaffolds consisting of a composite of poly(caprolactone), cellulose acetate, and tannic acid (TA) were electrospun, and then the scaffolds were treated with different Fe(III) solutions (iron(III) chloride hexahydrate (FeCl3'6H2O)) to obtain four tubular scaffolds: F0, F5, F15, and F45. According to scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and field emission-SEM results, TA/Fe(III) complex is coated on the fiber of the scaffold after post-treatment; the fiber surface morphology changes with different Fe(III) concentrations. This provides designability to the performance of tubular scaffolds. The tensile st...
