Can Serial Measurement Enhance the Diagnostic Value of Procalcitonin as a Marker of Gram-negative Bacteremia in Children with Acute Leukemia? by Zümrüt Şahbudak Bal, Gülinaz Ercan, Deniz Yılmaz Karapınar

“…In these patients, due to inadequate inflammatory response and subtle clinical symptoms, to determine the source of infection can be challenging. Therefore, it is important to distinguish infections from other non-infectious causes, for both to choose appropriate antibiotic and to reduce the redundant antibiotic use.Materials and Methods:In this retrospective study, we aim to evaluate serial procalcitonin (PCT) levels for predicting bacteremia particularly caused by Gram-negative microorganism.Results:Among FN episodes caused by Gram-negative microorganism, the median level of second PCT sample obtained between 48 and 72 hours PCT 2 was found to be significantly higher when compared to infections caused by Coagulase-negative Staphylococcus or culture-negative confirmed infections, p value was 0.003; however, fever onset PCT 1 and C-reactive protein (CRP) 1 values showed no significant difference (p>0.05). …”

Compositional and nutritional value of lupin cultivars: Identifying high-protein seeds for enhanced protein isolate production and phytochemical valorisation by Pau Taberner-Pibernat, Albert Ribas-Agustí, Gisela Quinteros, Gerard Sabeña, Miguel López-Gómez, Rubén Domínguez-Valencia, Ricard Bou

“…Beyond the high protein content, some phytochemicals in lupin seeds such as quinolizidine alkaloids (QAs), saponins, phytic acid, and total phenolic compounds (TPC) warrant further exploration due to their potential for valorisation following a seed protein isolation process, offering opportunities for their use in functional foods, nutraceuticals, or other high-value applications. This work evaluated eight cultivars from different cultivated lupin species —L. albus (Estoril, Celina, and Frieda), L. angustifolius (Giribita and Carabor), and L. luteus (Acos, Cardiga, and a commercial mixture)— in Europe as alternative protein sources. …”

Correcting variance and polarity indeterminacies of extracted components by canonical polyadic decomposition by Yuxing Hao, Huanjie Li, Guoqiang Hu, Wei Zhao, Fengyu Cong

“…The variance and polarity of the components are essential features of neuroscience studies.Objective This work extends the back-projection theory to canonical polyadic decomposition (CPD) for high-order tensors, aiming to correct the variance and polarity indeterminacies of the components extracted by CPD.Methods The tensor is reshaped into a matrix and decomposed using a suitable blind source separation algorithm. Subsequently, the coefficients are projected using back-projection theory, and other factor matrices are computed through a series of singular value decompositions of the back-projection matrix.Results By applying this method, the energy and polarity of each component are determined, effectively correcting the variance and polarity indeterminacies in CPD. …”
