Screening for potential warning biomarkers in cows with ketosis based on host –microbiota co-metabolism analysis
ConclusionKetotic cows experienced bile acid metabolism disorders 7 days before calving, and the gut microbiota was closely related to bile acid metabolism disorders. Future studies should investigate the relationship between secondary bile acids and the development of ketosis. (Source: Frontiers in Microbiology)

COVID-19 trends at the University of Tennessee: predictive insights from raw sewage SARS-CoV-2 detection and evaluation and PMMoV as an indicator for human waste
This study aims to contribute insights into these aspects by conducting an academic-year field trial at the student residences on the University of Tennessee, Knoxville campus, raw sewage. This was done to investigate the correlations between SARS-CoV-2 RNA load, both with and without PMMoV normalization, and various parameters, including active COVID-19 cases, self-isolations, and their combination among all student residents. Significant positive correlations between SARS-CoV-2 RNA load a week prior, during the monitoring week, and the subsequent week with active cases. Despite these correlations, normalization by PMMoV ...

Safety Planning for Suicidal Patients in ED Linked to Lower Readmissions
Patients with suicidal behavior who received a safety plan —a set of suicide-prevention strategies—during an emergency department (ED) visit were less likely to be readmitted to the ED or the hospital for suicidal behavior or other mental health problems within 30 days of discharge than those who went to a hospital without routine safety planning. The f inding appeared in astudy published today inPsychiatric Services.“Our findings support the notion of making safety planning universally available in EDs for patients with suicidal behavior and as a standard component of outpatient mental health care,” wrote Sara Wie...

Recognizing and coping with suicidal thoughts: A mixed-methods investigation of digital safety plan content
CONCLUSIONS: Safety plan content provides a window into the thought process underlying the recognition of suicidal thoughts and the attempts to manage them. An opportunity exists for practitioners and support persons to use this content when collaboratively supporting a safety plan user to improve their coping strategies and support networks.PMID:38532233 | DOI:10.1111/bjc.12460 (Source: The British Journal of Clinical Psychology)

The association between Chinese visceral adiposity index and cardiometabolic multimorbidity among Chinese middle-aged and older adults: a national cohort study
ConclusionThe CVAI is a valid biomarker with good predictive capability for cardiometabolic multimorbidity and can be used by primary healthcare organizations in the future for early warning, prevention, and intervention with regard to cardiometabolic multimorbidity.

Sensors, Vol. 24, Pages 2149: Embeddable Chloride Sensor for Monitoring Chloride Penetration into Cement Mortar
gang Wang
A composite solid chloride sensor consisting of two single sensors, i.e., Ag/AgCl working electrode and Mn/MnO2 reference electrode, was developed. The Ag/AgCl electrode was prepared by the anodic polarization method, while the Mn/MnO2 reference electrode was prepared using the powder compaction technique. Then, the electrochemical performances such as stability, reproducibility, and sensitivity of the composite and single sensors were investigated in a saturated Ca(OH)2 solution and mortar specimen. A current density of 0.5 mA/cm2 and polarization time of 2.5 h were the optimal preparation parameters of the ...

Genetically engineered marmosets promise insight into early stages of Parkinson ’s
By the time a person shows symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, neurons in a part of their brain key to movement have already quietly died. To learn how this process unfolds, identify warning signs, and test treatments, researchers have long wanted an animal model of the disease’s early stages. Now, they may have one: a cohort of transgenic marmosets, described at
a conference on nonhuman primate models
in Hong Kong last month.
The animals, which neuroscientist Hideyuki Okano of Keio University and colleagues created using a mutated protein that seems to drive Parkinson’s in some people, closely mimic the...
