Extremely low-pressure filtration with regard to energy efficient microalgae filtration.
25% calibration accuracy and 88% validation accuracy. Afterward, the validity of the chemometric methods employed was tested by blind testing of samples. A preliminary study on the effect of selected substrates (cotton cloth, tissue paper, glass, and plastic) on sample analysis indicates that while sample stain on substrates could be linked to its parent source even after a month, linking an aged samples (after 8 months) could be hindered due to evaporation of components present in vermilion. Overall, the current methodology utilized has a potential prospect in future forensic-casework.Cyanine dyes carrying quinoline moieties are an important class of organic molecules that are of great interest for applications in many fields like medicine, pharmacology, and engineering. Despite their exceptional properties, such as stability, high molar extinction coefficients, and high pH-sensitivity, this class of dyes has been less analyzed and reviewed in the last few decades. Therefore, this review article focuses on discussing the history of quinoline compounds, various synthetic routes to prepare quinolinium salts and symmetrical and asymmetrical mono-, di-, tri-, penta- and heptamethine cyanine dyes, containing quinoline moieties, together with their optical properties and applications as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy, probes in biomolecules for labeling of nucleic acids, as well as imaging agents.
The aims of the present scoping review were to systematically map and summarize findings to identify any study that reported epidemiological data on pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) among male and female athletes.

Six medical databases were searched up to March 2020. No language, study design, and publication type restrictions were applied. Additional studies were identified through gray literature and the reference lists of articles were screened. The results were presented numerically and thematically.

A total of 4358 records were identified with an initial search. A hundred studies met the criteria for inclusion. The number of studies published annually increased over the years. Cross-sectional studies (n = 62), urinary incontinence (n = 64), multiple sports (n = 58), and female athletes (n = 83) are the most investigated study design, condition, sport, and population, respectively. Only 12 studies explored PFD in the male population. Authors focused selectively on elite athletes in 21 studies.

This is the first scoping review to provide a comprehensive overview of the topic. The major gaps in the literature include studies focused on male participants, other PFD (e.g., anal incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and pelvic pain), with appropriate study design. This review may be useful to raise awareness of the issue among clinicians and stakeholders in sport and it may represent a starting point for future research.

Evidence increasingly suggests that ASD manifests differently in females than males. Previous reviews investigating sex/gender differences in social interaction and social communication have focused at the level of broad constructs (e.g. comparing algorithm scores from pre-existing diagnostic instruments) and have typically reported no significant differences between males and females. However, a number of individual studies have found sex/gender differences in narrow construct domains.

We conducted a systematic review and random effects model meta-analyses (in January 2019 and updated January 2020) that investigated sex/gender differences in narrow construct measures of social communication and interaction in autistic and nonautistic children and adolescents, and adults. Study quality was appraised using the Appraisal Tool for Cross-Sectional Studies (AXIS, BMJ Open, 6, 2016, 1).

Across 16 studies (including 2,730 participants), the analysis found that female (vs. male) individuals with ASD had signifinces in social interaction and communication for individuals with ASD, likely not captured by pre-existing diagnostic instruments, which potentially contribute to the under recognition of autism in females, and may need to be reflected in the diagnostic process.The free generalized endoscopic screening for diagnosis of early esophageal cancer and precancerous lesion could not be satisfactorily implemented in China. At present, the decision to accept endoscopic screening at their own expense may largely depend on the public awareness. This study was aimed to investigate the awareness and other influencing factors associated with the accompanying children of esophageal cancer patients after their hospitalization. In this cross-sectional study, from April to June 2016, 233 children of accompanying patients, who were admitted within the last 1 year due to esophageal cancer in three affiliated hospitals of Zhengzhou University and Anyang Tumor Hospital, were enrolled. In addition, telephone surveys were conducted to investigate their awareness about endoscopic screening. One child was corresponded to an esophageal cancer patient. Ruboxistaurin hydrochloride About half (47.6%, 111/233) of the children were unaware that endoscopic screening could detect early esophageal cancer and precancerous lesion. There was no significant difference in their awareness rates between hospitals with different administration levels. Besides, the males who had a lower family income and lower education level showed a poor awareness rate (P less then 0.05). The overall awareness rate among the accompanying children of patients on endoscopic screening was rather low in Henan province (China). Hence, the health education and awareness on the importance of endoscopic screening for early detection of esophageal cancer should be promoted among children accompanying the patients. More attention should be focused towards the subject group, particularly among those male children with lower educational level and family income.
