LUSIONS Quality of recovery appears to be better following spontaneous compared to operative vaginal delivery. This study also demonstrates that ObsQoR-10 is a valid and reliable tool for use following these delivery modes. OBJECTIVE A number of trials have shown that remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) could reduce lung injury of patients suffering cardiovascular surgery, pulmonary transplantation surgery and thoracic surgery with one-lung ventilation. However, there is still a controversy over the lung protection of RIPC in patients who suffers different types of surgery. We undertook meta-analysis of the randomized controlled trials to evaluate the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning on clinical outcomes of patients with lung injury. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis. SETTING Perioperative care areas. PATIENTS Adults and infants suffering cardiovascular surgery with lung injury. INTERVENTION Remote ischemic preconditioning. MEASUREMENTS The literatures were selected complying with the inclusive and exclusive criteria from the following databases as PubMed, Embase, Medline, Chinese Biomedical Literature and Journal Databases, Chinese Academic and VIP journal full-text Databases. Inclusion criteria includes (1 352 patients in RIPC group and 356 patients in control group. The baseline characteristics of patients are no differences in two groups (P > 0.05). Compared with control group, RIPC significantly reduced the duration of ICU (P  less then  0.05) and mechanical ventilation time (P  less then  0.05) in RIPC group. In addition, the serum TNF-α and MDA concentration 24 h after operation in RIPC group are significantly lower than control group (P  less then  0.05). However, there are no significant differences between RIPC group and control group in terms of serum IL-6, IL-8 concentrations, A-aDO2, PaO2/FiO2 and respiratory index 24 h after operation. CONCLUSION RIPC can decrease pulmonary inflammatory responses, reduce the duration of ICU and mechanical ventilation time, and improve the clinical outcomes of patients with lung injury. The single-chamber bio-photoelectrochemical system (BPES) with a BiOBr photocathode was developed for acid orange 7 (AO7), 2,4 dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) and chloramphenicol (CAP) degradation under solar irradiation. Photoelectrochemical characterizations showed that the optimized BiOBr-photocathode exhibited great light-response property and excellent electrochemcial performance. Moreover, desired TOC removals were achieved for various organic pollutants, with the values of 90.97% (AO7), 81.41% (2,4-DCP) and 78.47% (CAP). Besides, the lower cathode potentials in the illuminated BPESs were favorable to efficient pollutants degradation. Significant microbial community shifts were observed among the inoculation and anodic biofilms from the BPES, and the most dominated species in anodic biofilms acclimated to various pollutants were Geobacter and Pseudomonas, which have the abilities of extracellular electrons transfer and organics degradation. Some other species that different from the inoculation were also identified from the BPES biofilms. This study suggested that BPES had great potential for refractory organics degradation. Because of the abundance and renewability of lignocellulosic biomass, lignocellulose-derived biofuels and chemicals are promising alternatives to fossil resources. In this study, we developed a strategy for pretreating lignocellulose (corn stover) using a sodium hydroxide-urea solution (SUs) and evaluated changes in the efficiency and structure. The results showed that treatment with 6% NaOH/12% urea at 80 °C for 20 min gave a glucose yield of 0.54 g/g corn stover. Recycling of the NaOH/urea was also explored, and the average glucose yield over four pretreatment cycles was 0.44 g/g corn stover. The structural characteristics of corn stover were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Compared with untreated corn stover, NaOH/urea-pretreated corn stover had more micropores, mesopores, and macropores, higher crystallinity, and a higher cellulose content. This pretreatment process is economical and efficient and has good application prospects for lignocellulose biorefinery. Corn straw silage (CSS) is one of the organic solid residues available for biogas production. The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility and optimal controlling strategy for anaerobic digestion (AD) of CSS. Four leaching bed reactors (LBR) were operated at different pH. Maximum volatile fatty acids (VFAs) concentration of 19.34 g/L was reached at pH 8.0 with acetic and propionic acids as dominant VFAs. The subsequent microbial analysis indicated that abundant bacteria were Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria. UASB as methanogenic reactor was integrated with the LBR. The organic loading rate (OLR) could reach 8 g COD/L·d with effective conversion of VFAs. Acetotrophic Methanosaeta and hydrogenotrophic Methanobacterium played major roles in methanogenic process. In the whole process, the results showed that methane yield of 143.4 mL CH4/g volatile solid (VS) was obtained. pH and OLR controls in two-phase AD were feasible for methane production from CSS. Production of biodiesel from lipids of Serratia sp. ISTD04 by lipase of Pseudomonas sp. ISTPL3 immobilised on biocomposite materials to increase the enzyme stability and reusability was studied. Lipase extracted, partially purifiedand immobilized onto activated biochar, impregnated with calcite obtained from biomineralization-based conversion of CO2 from ISTD04, and bioactive ceramics materials, Na2Ca2Si3O9 prepared by chemical process. SB239063 datasheet The composition, structure and texture of biocomposite materials determined by SEM and EDS methods. The composition of synthesized biodiesel was determined by GC-MS. The results imply that the immobilized lipase on activated biochar impregnated with calcite gave the maximum yield of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME97.41%) followed by immobilized lipase on biochar (FAME94.91), immobilized lipase on glass-ceramic (FAME91.50%) and NaOH (FAME85.63%). The reusability of lipase immobilized on activated biochar impregnated with calcite retained 75.11%and 50% catalytic activity after 5 and 10 cycles of transesterification reaction, respectively.
