... Predictive models have been developed with good overall sensitivity to predict post-transplantation sepsis. 89 In addition, patients on the wait list who have high bradenscore, which is used to identify the risk of pressure sores, have a higher post-transplantation length of hospital stay. 90 Furthermore, pre-surgery mechanically ventilated patients with PaO 2 /FiO 2 # 200 mm Hg have longer post-transplantation ICU stay and outcomes. ...

... PTPN20 has been shown to have differential expression across cancer types, suggesting that it may have distinct roles in different cancer types. Specifically, while the expression of PTPN20 was reduced in colorectal cancer (19), PTPN20 levels showed no change between acute myeloid leukemia cell and normal cells (41). In esophageal carcinoma, PTPN20 was upregulated and associated with both the TNM stage and N stage. ...

... Tumor cells take up and use more glucose than they need, which is known as the Warburg effect (22). Recently, the amino acid dependence of tumor cells has received more and more attention (23). Amino acids have been demonstrated to be the dominant nitrogen source for hexosamines, nucleotides, and other nitrogenous compounds in rapidly proliferating cells (24,25). ...

... Applying the herbicide bensulfuron-methyl on cucumber decreased the F V /F M ratio, minimal fluorescence (F 0 ), the actual efficiency of PSII (ΦPSII) and electron transport rate (ETR) parameters [28]. The F V /F M ratio and ΦPSII are reported as stress indicators in response to insecticide application [29]. ...

... The analgesic effect was comparable to that of continuous infusion of 0.2% ropivacaine for 48 h [23]. Poloxamer 407 and polycaprolactone electrospun fibers have been used as excipients to prepare ropivacaine hydrogels that blocked rat nerves for more than 30 h [24]. However, the safety of new excipients has yet to be fully elucidated. ...

... Chen et al. (19) studied and analyzed cells, and found that during renal ischemia/reperfusion, the intracellular reactive oxygen species increased, but the endogenous anti-oxidants did not increase accordingly, which led to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species in the cells, thus damaging the cells. In the process of inflammatory reaction, the oxygen free radicals produced in the body will increase explosively, which is difficult to be cleared by SOD, CAT, GSH, and other anti-oxidant enzymes in the body, thus leading to the accumulation of active oxygen clusters in the kidney tissue, the level of inflammatory factors will increase, and the degree of organ damage will increase (20). ...

... In recent years, the role of hepatic ferroptosis in the onset and Ivyspring International Publisher development of NAFLD has been emphasized. Hepatocyte ferroptosis may worsen NAFLD by raising the likelihood of hepatocyte swelling, inflammation, and fibrosis, thus speeding up the progress from simple steatosis to NASH [8,9]. Therefore, inhibiting hepatic ferroptosis is likely to be a therapeutic target for NAFLD. ...

... Furthermore, specifically knocking out the myeloid differentiation factor (Myd88) gene of TECs can reduce not only pro-inflammatory factors, interstitial infiltration, and fibrosis but also senescent cell aggregation and renal tubular damage, demonstrating that the TLR/Myd88/NF-κB pathway is an important pathway in mediating cellular senescence in TECs. Chen et al. [51] discovered that in the early stages of SAKI, Lipoxin A4 exerts anti-aging and anti-inflammatory effects via the PPAR-γ/NF-κB pathway, helping to improve renal function. ...

... An interesting observation is that 80% of septic patients have hypophosphatemia associated with elevated concentrations of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha and interleukin (IL)-6 and other inflammatory cytokines included in cytokine storm in COVID-19 [56,57]. Studies concerning impact of phosphate concentrations on mortality are inconclusive [58,59]. Our results suggest a link between hypophosphatemia and delirium and indirectly with mortality, as shown by studies in 6190 patients where hypophosphatemia is an independent risk factor for sepsis mortality [58]. ...

... Notably, SlFBN11 showed the most significant response to ABA, and its expression increased 27.0 times at 12 h and 9.7 times at 24 h compared with the 0 h, suggesting that this gene was likely to involved in the ABA signal pathway. DISCUSSION FBN family proteins were early discovered in fibrils of chromoplasts (Deruère et al., 1994) and were involved in the various plant tissues growth and development, stress and hormone signal response (Jiang et al., 2020;Liu et al., 2018). In recent years, FBN gene families have been identified in several plants, such as rice (Li et al., 2020), cucumber (Kim et al., 2018 and wheat (Jiang et al., 2020). ...
