Knee-specific symptoms and function, activity and quality of life were lower, and fear of re-injury was higher for participants with ACLR than controls. Side-to-side thigh muscle strength and hop distance deficits were evident for the ACLR group.

The purpose of this study was to identify prospectively the anatomical and functional intrinsic risk factors for lateral ankle sprain (LAS) in adolescent athletes participating in team sports.

A prospective cohort study.

University research laboratory.

A total of 152 adolescent male athletes (age 14.45±2.96 years; height 165.63±15.33cm; weight 55.60±16.56kg; body mass index 19.97±3.58kg/m

) participated in this study.

The participants were assessed during the preseason for previous ankle sprain history, navicular drop, tibia vara, Q angle, tibia torsion, knee recurvatum, and ankle ROM. LASs were prospectively recorded and diagnosed for two consecutive seasons (20 months).

Previous ankle sprain history (odds ratio [OR]=60.911, p<0.001), increased navicular drop (OR=1.767, p<0.001), and knee recurvatum (OR=1.881, p=0.002) were positively associated with the incidence of LAS. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses revealed the predictive potentials of previous ankle sprain history (the area under the ROC [AUROC]=0.706, p<0.001), navicular drop (AUROC=0.906, p<0.001), and knee recurvatum (AUROC=0.724, p<0.001).

Athletes with previous ankle sprain history, knee recurvatum, and especially navicular drop may have a greater risk of LAS injury. The data from this study can help therapists and trainers to identify people with a higher risk of LAS.

Thus, it simplifies operational processing and increases efficiency, leading to more cost-effective processes. The use of small-size matrices as carriers for enzyme immobilization enables to maximize surface area and catalysts loading, also reducing diffusion limitations. As highly expensive nanoparticles (nm size) usually aggregate, their application at large scale is not recommended. In contrast, the use of magnetic micro-macro (µm-mm size) matrices leads to more homogeneous biocatalysts with null or very low aggregation, which facilitates an easy handling and recovery. The present review aims to highlight recent trends in the application of medium-to-high size magnetic biocatalysts in different areas (biodiesel production, food and pharma industries, protein purification or removal of environmental contaminants). The advantages and disadvantages of these above-mentioned magnetic biocatalysts in bioprocess technology will be also discussed.A novel macro-architectures material Fe3O4-N-GO@sodium alginate (SA) gel film was successfully produced, which was used to remove series azo dye wastewater. The optimal adsorption rates were attained, which achieved the maximum removal efficiency of 74.22%, 45.72%, 37.75% for Congo Red, Acid Orange 7 and Amino Black 10B respectively, under the condition that the mass ratio of Fe3O4-N-GO to sodium alginate was 0.11. The optimal adsorption temperature for three dyes was 30 ℃ and the adsorption equilibrium was reached at 150 min. The adsorption kinetic model of Fe3O4-N-GO@SA for the three azo dyes conformed to the quasi-second-order reaction model, and the adsorption isotherm was more in line with the Freundlich adsorption. The adsorption mechanism was multi-layer heterogeneous adsorption under the combined action of physical adsorption and chemisorption, and chemisorption was the main step of controlling the speed. The study would provide theoretical basis for the application of macro-architectures material in environment.Management of food waste (FW) is a global challenge due to increasing population and economic activities. Presently, landfill and incineration are the keyways of FW management, while economical and environmental sustainability have been an issue. Therefore, the biological processes have been investigated for resource and energy recovery from FW. However, these biological approaches have certain drawbacks and cannot be a complete solution for FW management. JNJ-26481585 Therefore, this review aims to offer a detailed and complete analysis of current available technologies to achieve environmental and economical sustainability. In this context, zero solid waste discharge for resource and energy recovery has been put into view. Corresponding to which several innovative technologies using integrated biological methods for resource and energy recovery from FW have been elucidated.A bacterial strain was isolated and identified as Pseudomonas sp. DM02 from an aquaculture system. Strain DM02 showed efficient heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification capability. Total ammonia nitrogen (TAN, 10 mg/L) could be completely removed by strain DM02 within 12 h under low nutrient condition. Nitrogen mass balance indicated that 70.8% of the initial TAN was translated into gaseous nitrogen and 28.1% was converted into intracellular nitrogen. Various carbon sources can be used for nitrate removal (>95% within 28 h). The optimal conditions for TAN, nitrate and nitrite removal were pH 7 with carbon/nitrogen (C/N) ratios of 8, 12 and 12, respectively. The napA, nirK, and nosZ functional genes were successful amplified from strain DM02. Both bioaugmentation and immobilized technology of strain DM02 present ability (>88%) for continuous treatment of real aquaculture wastewater. This research indicated a great potential for practical application of Pseudomonas sp. DM02 in aquaculture wastewater treatment.
