Objective Oxidative stress results in neuronal degeneration leading to cognitive decline. Microglia brain tissue produces reactive oxygen species (ROS), which modulate synaptic communication between neurons. ROS can lead neuroinflammation, cause neurodegeneration and memory loss. Talinum triangulare was investigated for its cognitive, anti-oxidative anti-inflammatory potentials male wistar rats. Materials methods 25 adult female rats weighing 150 g–200 g were grouped (n = 5) into Group 1 (control group) received mL/kg of distilled water, group 2–5 administered with 100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg 400 T. methanol extract 2.5 donepezil, cadmium respectively via oral gavage. The administration lasted 21 days neurobehavioural parameters, biochemical histological analysis the hippocampus evaluated. assessment spatial learning evaluated using Classic labyrinth task. Results There significantly (p < 0.05) reduced escape time latency increased probe trial Morris water maze; by (100, mg/kg) compared control treated groups. donepezil acetylcholinesterase (AChE), necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) activities gluthathione peroxidase activity (GPx) catalase (CAT) respectively. Conclusion These findings revealed that enhanced function exhibited potentials.

Occurrence, ecological, and health risk assessment of antibiotics in water from the Karst River during influenza season

River, Год журнала: 2024, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Ноя. 7, 2024

Abstract The widespread use of antibiotics has significantly increased their presence in aquatic environments, particularly sensitive Karst River systems. In this study, the distribution and ecological, human health, resistance selection risk assessment 44 typical River, Lijiang were investigated during influenza season, a period marked by heightened antibiotic usage. 27 could be found water among which azithromycin showing highest concentrations. concentrations total range 171.70–2003.75 ng/L, with an average value 704.76 ng/L. Macrolide was predominant class, constituting 57.65% Risk assessments revealed that certain antibiotics, especially macrolides, posed moderate to high ecological risks algae, displayed potential health at low levels contributed antimicrobial resistance. Among all only one cause towards infants risk, should identified as priority for control season. There no difference concentrations, between mainstream tributaries River. This study contributes better understanding pollution provides insights into management practices vulnerable systems worldwide.

Evaluation of urban ecological livability and obstacle factor diagnosis from a synergistic perspective: A case study of Zhangjiajie City, China

PLoS ONE, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 19(11), С. e0313267 - e0313267

Опубликована: Ноя. 15, 2024

The construction of ecological livability plays a crucial role in achieving civilization. During economic development, conflicts between urban populations, resources, and the environment have become increasingly prominent. Although China’s efforts building made certain achievements, they are still early stages, making research this area very necessary. This study aims to establish an indicator system for level from four aspects: ecology, society, residents’ living conditions, economy. Based on panel data 2008 2021, entropy-TOPSIS model was used evaluate Zhangjiajie City. Additionally, coupling coordination degree employed correlation among different indicators within system. Furthermore, obstacle introduced explore main factors affecting improvement levels. results show that, over fourteen-year period, proximity City’s decreased 0.2712 0.2547 2010, then rose 0.7686 reaching medium level, with constraining effects systems weakening. average wage employees, proportion social security employment expenditure fiscal expenditure, per capita total postal telecommunications business volume, number public library collections, education influencing level.
