Abstract Atmospheric dustfall is solid air pollutant, which is mainly influenced by local sources, so it has a major impact on the local environment and the health of local residents. The objective of this study was to investigate the distribution characteristics of dustfall fluxes and particle size, and the meteorological factors affected them. Atmospheric dustfall was collected in an open-pit coal mining area and surrounding areas in the arid desert area of Northwest China from March to December 2018. Dustfall fluxes was measured, particle size was measured by using graphical methods and gra

Abstract Background Suction drainage is commonly applied after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) to reduce hematoma, swelling and to favor surgical wound healing. However, its efficacy remains controversial; thus, the purpose of this study is to evaluate drainage efficiency in the management of postoperative bleeding in TKA and UKA. Methods The cohort comprised 134 clinical records of patients affected by knee osteoarthritis (OA) who underwent either TKA or UKA. All the patients were subdivided into 2 groups: the first one with drainage and the second o

ObjectivesThis case-control study aimed to evaluate calcitonin response in naturally occurring hypercalcemia in cats and assess the relationships between calcitonin and ionized calcium (iCa) and examine relationships between calcitonin, iCa and bone turnover.MethodsHypercalcemic cats (persistently increased iCa concentration [>1.40 mmol/l]) were identified retrospectively via a medical database search; additional hypercalcemic and normocalcemic cats were recruited prospectively. Data regarding routine biochemical and urine testing, diagnostic imaging and additional blood testing were obtained.
