... Through the integration of proteomic, metabolomic, and lipidomic data, the reference spectrum of HCC subtypes has been successfully established, which may facilitate more precise and personalized treatment strategies for HCC patients [16]. In addition, certain studies have elucidated the molecular typing, prognostic features, and therapeutic targets of HCC patients from the perspective of proteomics, phosphoproteomics, and ubiquitomics, providing a significant theoretical foundation for the prognosis and assessment of HCC [17]. Although molecular typing presents novel opportunities for precision treatment of HCC, several challenges persist, including the accurate typing of HCC, the appropriateness of perioperative immunological application, the differential benefits of immunotherapy for HCC patients with varying etiologies, and the paucity of data from large-scale clinical trials. ...

... NO 3 showed a lower removal rate than nitrite even though it achieved the same maximum efficiency of 80%. Findings from Zhang et al. (2024) suggest that the rate at which NO2 is reduced can be 1.63 times higher in comparison to the rate of nitrate reduction.. Using wetland system achieves better efficiency than shell powder, namely 82 -99%. However, the efficiency of shell powder can be better than the use of several types of adsorbents (<80%), namely polymer hydrogel (50%) (Kioussis et al., 2000), rice husk (6.13%) (Abdou et al., 2018), microalgae Picochlorum maculatum (46.4%) (Kumar et al., 2016) or a combination of wetland systems, shellfish and fish (18.55%) (Saiya and Katoppo, 2015). ...

... Starting from chitosan/iron sludge beads and using a pyrolytic procedure, magnetic chitosan carbon (MCC) was fabricated and used in the adsorption of Sb(III) from synthetic aqueous solutions [28]. Using this adsorbent, the variation of the pH from 3 to 10 had a negligible effect on the removal of this element. ...

... Both bare and starch-coated magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized using the co-precipitation method and employed for As(V) adsorption. Starch was used to coat the magnetite nanoparticles, enhancing the stability and dispersion of the adsorbent while also boosting its adsorption performance (Zeng, 2024). A study on the one-step co-pyrolysis of DWTR and corn stalk to produce magnetic adsorbents at varying temperatures revealed that increasing the pyrolysis temperature from 400 to 1000 • C enhanced both the saturation magnetization and SSA. ...

... Excellent phosphorus adsorption of LDH/biochar composites has been reported (Yang et al., 2019;Zhang et al., 2022a). Co-precipitation is the most widely used method for preparing LDH/biochar composite (Zeng et al., 2024;Zubair et al., 2021). The co-precipitation method usually requires strict pH regulation, and the rapid and uncontrollable co-precipitation leads to low crystallinity LDH with uneven particle size (Keyikoglu et al., 2022). ...

... Studies have shown that persulfate [27], percarbonate [28], H 2 O 2 [29], periodate (PI, IO 4 -) [30] and peracetic acid [31] can effectively participate in Fe(VI)-based processes, enhancing pollutant degradation through different reaction mechanisms. PI stands out among the other oxidants used in water treatment owing to its high oxidation potential of +1.60 V [32] and ease of storage and transportation [33]. It can be activated to produce reactive oxygen species through various methods, such as photolysis [34], homogeneous activation (e.g., by reducing agents [35]), and heterogeneous activation (e.g., by carbon nanotubes [36] and iron-based materials [33]). ...
