Post-transplantation diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is a common complication in renal transplant recipients (RTRs). Gut microbiome plays important roles in a variety of chronic metabolic diseases, but its association with the occurrence and development of PTDM is still unknown. The present study integrates the analysis of gut microbiome and metabolites to further identify the characteristics of PTDM. A ...

Arsenic (As) contamination has become a global problem, especially in developing countries, where a significant percentage of the population depends on groundwater for drinking. Arsenic toxicity depends on its chemical form. Herein, we evaluated the phytotoxicity of arsenite [As(III)], including As accumulation and adverse physiological responses (e.g., growth inhibition, oxidative stress, and met...

The development of VANET allows vehicle users can enjoy location-based services (LBS) through the network in any time and place, however, which also causes the location privacy issues. Existing research work has protected the user`s location privacy and driving routes to a certain extent, such as Mix-zone scheme. But those schemes exists some shortcomings and deficiencies. In order to solve this p...

The development of vehicular ad-hoc network (VANET) allows vehicle users to enjoy location-based services through the network at any time and place. However, it also raises location privacy issues. Privacy-preservation of large amounts of real-time location data is a critical issue. Existing research work, such as the mix-zone scheme, has protected users’ location privacy and driving routes to a c...

In renal transplantation, monitoring procalcitonin (PCT) in the early post-transplant period can be a promising method for early tracking of infectious complications. However, the correlation between PCT and infection-related factors and immune components and renal function remains unclear. Between November 2017 and December 2018, 62 early-stage renal transplant recipients were selected, and 4 mL ...
