The A^2/O process was operated in a short aerobic sludge retention time (SRT) for organic pollutants and phosphorus removal, and denitrification. The subsequent BAF process was mainly used for nitrification. The BAF effluent was partially returned to anoxic zone of the A^2/O process to provide electron acceptors for denitrification and anoxic P uptake. This unique system formed an environment for reproducing the denitdfying phosphate-accumulating organisms (DPAOs). The ratio of DPAOs to phosphorus accumulating organisms (PAOs) could be maintained at 28% by optimizing the organic loads in the anaerobic zone and the nitrate loads into the anoxic zone in the A^2/O process. The aerobic phosphorus over-uptake and discharge of excess activated sludge was the main mechanism of phosphorus removal in the combined system. The aerobic SRT of the A^2/O process should meet the demands for the development of aerobic PAOs and the restraint on the nitrifiers growth, and the contact time in the aerobic zone of the A^2/O process should be longer than 30 min, which ensured efficient phosphorus removal in the combined system. The adequate BAF effluent return rates should be controlled with 1--4 mg/L nitrate nitrogen in the anoxic zone effluent of A^2/O process to achieve the optimal nitrogen and phosphorus removal efficiencies.展开更多

文摘The development of efficient photocatalysts for crucial organic transformation,such as aerobic oxidation,remains challenging.Although powdered porous materials offer abundant accessible active sites,their application in liquid-phase catalysis is often limited by insufficient light absorption and inevitable charge recombination,which are inherent drawbacks of conventional heterogeneous catalysts.Here,through rational design and nanoscale-engineering of porous aromatic frameworks(PAFs)comprising porphyrin and porous organic cage,a quasi-homogeneous porous photocatalyst with high catalytic activity and controllable dimension was developed.The interface-directed growth in oil-in-water emulsion shaped the morphology of photoactive PAFs from powders to nanoflakes,which facilitated the light absorbance and catalyst-substrate interaction.Compared with PAF powders,PAF nanoflakes exhibited superior photocatalytic activity for aerobic oxidation.For mustard gas simulant(2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide,CEES),PAF nanoflakes exhibited ultrafast detoxification rates in room air with a half-life(t_(1/2))as fast as 26s,which even exceeded other catalysts in pure oxygen.It also completely catalyzed the aerobic oxidation of thioether within 15 min,which is almost the fastest rate among any reported organic photocatalysts.Furthermore,the efficient catalytic performance under mild conditions caused by improved light enrichment,surface charge transfer and carrier lifetime was elucidated.

文摘A novel salt-tolerant aerobic denitrifying bacterium,Marinobacter sp.strain B108,was isolated from a marine recirculating aquaculture system(MRAS).The optimal aerobic denitrification parameters were CH_(3)COONa as carbon source,pH of 8,C/N of16,temperature of 35°C,dissolved oxygen(DO)of 6 mg/L and salinity of 30.Under these optimal conditions,Marinobacter sp.strain B108 had a removal efficiency of 100%for N O_(3)^(-)-N and 98.89%for total nitrogen(TN)within 24 h.The nitrate removal pathways of Marinobacter sp.strain B108 were included by the assimilative reduction pathway(N O_(3)^(-)-N→biomass N)and the dissimilatory reduction pathway(N O_(3)^(-)-N→N_(2))of aerobic denitrification,and lack of dissimilatory reduction to ammonium pathway(N O_(3)^(-)-N→N H_(4)^(+)-N).The nitrogen removal process of Marinobacter sp.strain B108 was mainly contributed by the dissimilatory reduction pathway.The kinetic parameters for N O_(3)^(-)-N and N O_(2)^(-)-N removal were determined as V_(m)of 971.566 and 165.336 mg/(gDCW·L·h),and K_(m)of 22.74 and 31.68 mg/L,respectively.This work reflects the practical application potential of Marinobacter sp.strain B108for nitrogen removal in MRAS.

文摘In this study,the effect of number of stages and bioreactor type on the removal performance of a sequential anaerobic-aerobic process employing activated sludge for the treatment of a simulated textile dyeing wastewater containing three commercial reactive azo dyes was considered.Two stage processes performed better than one stage ones,both in terms of overall organic and color removal,as well as the higher contribution of anaerobic stage to the overall removal performance,thereby making them a more energy efficient option.The employment of a moving bed sequencing batch biofilm reactor,which uses both suspended and attached biomass,for the implementation of the anaerobic stage of the process,was compared with a sequencing batch reactor that only employs suspended biomass.The results showed that,although there was no meaningful difference in biomass concentration between the two bioreactors,the latter reactor had better performance in terms of chemical oxygen demand(COD)removal efficiency and rate and color removal rate.Further exploratory tests revealed a difference between the roles of suspended and attached bacterial populations,with the former yielding better color removal whilst the latter had better COD removal performance.The sequential anaerobic–aerobic process,employing an aerobic membrane bioreactor in the aerobic stage resulted in COD and color removal of 77.1±7.9%and 79.9±1.5%,respectively.The incomplete COD and color removal was attributed to the presence of soluble microbial products in the effluent and the autoxidation of dye reduction metabolites,respectively.Also,aerobic partial mineralization of the dye reduction metabolites,was experimentally observed.

文摘Probiotics have been demonstrated to be effective and safe for hyperuricemia(HUA)and gout treatment.Hence,identifying microbes with high uric acid-or purine-metabolizing ability is highly important.Due to the high load of uric acid in chicken feces,we hypothesized that the chicken gut would be an excellent source for new uric acid or purine-metabolizing microbes.In this study,we examined chicken gut contents to isolate an Enterococcus faecalis strain(designated CML390)that displayed high uric acid-degrading ability.In vitro experiments indicated that E.faecalis CML390 could effectively metabolize uric acid under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions,and the richer the nutrients,the higher the rate of uric acid degradation.By integrating genomics,transcriptomics,and metabolomics analyses,we revealed two pathways involved in aerobic and anaerobic uric acid degradation,respectively,in this isolate.E.faecalis CML390 relies on oxygen to metabolize uric acid into substances such as allantoin under aerobic conditions,while it also harbors a conserved uric acid-inducible gene cluster for anaerobic uric acid metabolism.An in vivo experiment showed that gavage with live E.faecalis CML390 in a mouse model of HUA(established using a combination of uric acid and potassium oxonate)significantly reduced serum uric acid levels and alleviated HUA.Our findings contribute to the exploration of the pathways and mechanisms of uric acid metabolism in intestinal microorganisms and provide a candidate probiotic for the treatment of HUA and gout.

文摘BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM),a chronic metabolic disease with a high global incidence,has become a serious public health challenge.China has the largest number of T2DM patients worldwide,imposing a significant economic burden on the healthcare system.T2DM is closely associated with insulin resistance,impaired pancreatic B cell function,and disordered glucose and lipid metabolism,which can lead to various complications,reducing patients'quality of life and increasing the risk of disability and death.Thus,finding effective preventive and intervention measures is crucial.Exercise therapy,a key part of diabetes management,has gained attention in recent years,with many studies indicating its benefits for blood glucose control and other aspects in diabetic patients.AIM To assess the effectiveness of combined resistance and aerobic exercise interventions on blood glucose control and metabolic indicators in patients with T2DM and to explore their application in diabetes management.METHODS Systematic searches were conducted using PubMed,EMBASE,Cochrane Library,and Chinese databases for relevant randomized controlled trials(RCTs).The inclusion criteria were participants aged≥18 years with T2DM and the intervention involved combined resistance and aerobic exercise for≥8 weeks.The primary outcome indicators were fasting blood glucose,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),triglycerides(TG),glycated hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c),and total cholesterol(TC)levels.Data analysis was performed using RevMan software,and the interventional effects were assessed using weighted mean differences or standardized mean differences(SMD).RESULTS Six RCTs meeting the inclusion criteria were included,with a total sample size of 366 participants.The meta-analysis results showed that combined resistance and aerobic exercise significantly improved several metabolic indicators in patients with T2DM.Specific results were as follows:(1)For fasting blood glucose,combined exercise was more effective than aerobic exercise alone[SMD=1.22;95%confidence interval(95%CI):0.70,1.74;P<0.00001];(2)LDL-C levels were significantly reduced by the combined intervention(SMD=1.45;95%CI:1.18-1.72;P<0.00001);(3)The combined intervention significantly increased HDL-C levels(SMD=1.42;95%CI:0.98-1.87;P<0.00001);(4)The combined intervention significantly reduced TG levels(SMD=1.12;95%CI:0.85-1.39;P<0.00001;(5)No statistically significant difference was observed in HbA1c between the combined and the aerobic exercise group(SMD=-0.03;95%CI:-1.09 to 1.04;P<0.00001);and(6)The combined exercise intervention group significantly reduced TC levels(SMD=2.66;95%CI:1.93-3.38;P<0.00001).The subgroup analysis results suggest that the effect of exercise interventions may be influenced by various factors,including the patient's age,baseline blood glucose levels,and exercise intensity.CONCLUSION Combined resistance and aerobic exercise intervention significantly improved fasting blood glucose,LDL-C,HDL-C,TG,and TC levels in patients with T2DM,especially in terms of blood glucose control and cardiovascular risk,demonstrating better outcomes than aerobic exercise alone.

文摘Objectives:Aerobic exercise training can increase skeletal muscle mitochondrial content.Supine exercise training with legs above the heart potentially augments these increases.However,the impact of supine exercise training on mitochondrial biogenesis and cardiovascular adaptations remains unclear.Methods:In this single-centred,randomized,parallel arm trial,19 recreationally active individuals underwent seven sessions of either supine with legs up(SUP;n=9,6 females)or upright with legs down(UP;n=10,7 females)aerobic training on a recumbent bike at 71±7%and 71±2%of peak work rate(WRpeak),respectively.The study aimed to test the effects of training with decreased muscle oxygenation on indices of muscle mitochondrial remodelling.Secondary outcomes included exercise performance,muscle oxygenation,and cardiovascular responses.Results:Secondary outcomes revealed significant interaction effects for time to fatigue(TTF)and WRpeak in the SUP group during supine testing,suggesting enhanced exercise tolerance and performance.No between group interaction effects were observed for upright testing.No clear effects on mitochondrial biogenesis were observed based on expression of mitochondrial protein subunits and transcriptional regulators.Acutely,HRpeak was lower during the SUP Test compared to the UP Test.No central cardiovascular adaptations were observed following training.Conclusions:Our exploratory analyses showed that supine aerobic training more effectively improves supine exercise tolerance and performance compared with upright training,despite no differences in measured proteins related to mitochondrial biogenesis.Further research is needed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying these postural-specific training effects.Registration:clinicaltrials.gov:NCT04151095.

文摘Background:Statins are the cornerstone of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)-lowering therapy;however,the therapeutic efficacy of statins in countering atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease(ASCVD)is compromised by the concurrent elevation of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9(PCSK9),a pivotal molecule that increases LDL-C levels.Aerobic exercise lowers PCSK9 levels,but the underlying mechanism remains unclear.Therefore,we investigated how aerobic exercise can ameliorate statin-induced increases in PCSK9 levels.Methods:Three-week-old male American Institute of Cancer Research(ICR)mice were fed a high-fat-cholesterol diet(HFD)for 12 weeks and then administered atorvastatin alone or atorvastatin combined with aerobic exercise(Statin+Ex).Moreover,a total of 165 participants with stable coronary heart disease(CHD)enrolled at the Inpatient and Outpatient Departments of the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University,China,from January 2018 to July 2020 were randomized into the Statin group(male/female=51/33)and Statin+Ex group(male/female=52/29).Patients in the Statin+Ex group underwent treadmill exercise of 45-60 min/day for 7 days.Results:Aerobic exercise effectively alleviated statin-induced PCSK9 upregulation in human patients with CHD and hypercholesterolemic ICR mice(all p<0.05).Mechanistically,our findings revealed that aerobic exercise induced elevated epoxyeicosatrienoic acids(EETs)plasma levels while concurrently reducing the activity of soluble epoxide hydrolase(sEH)(all p<0.05),an enzyme responsible for EETs degradation.Further,EETs significantly suppressed PCSK9 expression,subsequently reducing the LDL-C levels(all p<0.05);this effect was mediated via the activation of the forkhead box O3a-silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 6(FoxO3a-Sirt6)axis,with no impact on the sterol regulatory element binding protein 2 and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase(SREBP2-HMGCR)pathway.Conclusion:Our study sheds light on the paradigm of"Exercise is Medicine",providing evidence to support the use of statins combined with exercise in reducing LDL-C levels,and unveils potential avenues for clinical applications of sEH inhibitors,presenting novel prospects for therapeutic interventions in ASCVD.

文摘This work established a quantitative method to access the shear stability of aerobic granular sludge(AGS)and validated its feasibility by using the mature AGS from a pilot-scale(50 tons/day)membrane bioreactor(MBR)for treating real municipal wastewater.The results showed that the changing rate( S)of the peak area(S)of granule size distribution(GSD)exhibited an exponential relationship(R^(2)≥0.76)with the shear time(y=a−b·c^(x)),which was a suitable indicative index to reflect the shear stability of different AGS samples.The limiting granule size(LGS)was defined and proposed to characterize the equilibrium size for AGS after being sheared for a period of time,whose value in terms of Dv50 showed high correlation(R^(2)=0.92)with the parameter a.The free Ca^(2+)(28.44-34.21 mg/L)in the influent specifically interacted with polysaccharides(PS)in the granule’s extracellular polymeric substance(EPS)as a nucleation site,thereby inducing the formation of Ca precipitation to enhance its Young’s modulus,while Ca^(2+) primarily interacted with PS in soluble metabolic product(SMP)during the initial granulation process.Furthermore,the Young’s modulus significantly affected the parameter a related to shear stability(R^(2)=0.99).Since the parameter a was more closely related(R^(2)=1.00)to S than that of the parameter b or c,the excellent correlation(R^(2)=0.99)between the parameter a and the wet density further verified the feasibility of this method.

文摘The ocean represents a vast carbon reservoir,where methane concentrations reflect a balance between production and consumption processes.In this study,marine sediments harboring abundant aerobic methanotrophs were incubated under varying methane concentrations.We investigated changes in methane oxidation rates and the community structure of these methanotrophs during incubation.Results demonstrate that methane concentration regulates aerobic methane oxidation.The oxidation rate increased with rising methane concentration up to 50%.However,beyond this threshold,at 80%methane,the oxidation rate declined.Following incubation,the abundance of aerobic methanotrophs increased significantly,with Methylobacterium becoming the dominant genus.Relative abundances of other bacteria potentially associated with alkane degradation,including Planomicrobium,Bacillus,Methylophaga,Erythrobacter,Gillisia and Pontibacter,were also significantly enriched.These findings provide a scientific basis for predicting marine methane emission dynamics,which is crucial for assessing and mitigating the greenhouse gas impact of methane.

文摘Acute lung injury(ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)is a severe clinical disorder characterized by widespread inflammation,diffuse alveolar damage,and pulmonary edema,often leading to respiratory failure and death.Despite significant advances in clinical care,ALI/ARDS remains the leading cause of death among intensive care unit patients.Sepsis is the primary risk factor for the development of ALI/ARDS,as excessive inflammatory responses contribute to organ injury and high mortality in critically ill patients.
文摘[Objectives]To synthesize evidence on HIIT versus moderate-intensity continuous training(MICT)or routine rehabilitation in stroke survivors.[Methods]We systematically searched 8 databases(PubMed,EMBASE,CENTRAL,Web of Science,SPORTSDiscus,PsycINFO,SCOPUS,CINAHL)up to May 2025.Seventeen randomized controlled trials(RCTs;total n=1142)met inclusion criteria:adults with stroke,device-based HIIT(≥70%HRR/VO 2peak),and outcomes assessing VO_(2)peak,6-min walk distance(6MWD),or Berg Balance Scale(BBS).Methodological quality was evaluated using the PEDro scale.Pooled effect sizes(Hedges'g)were calculated via random-effects models,with heterogeneity quantified by I^(2).[Results]HIIT significantly improved peak oxygen uptake(VO_(2)peak)versus controls(g=0.59,95%CI:0.44-0.75,p<0.001;I^(2)=16.29%).Low heterogeneity and symmetrical funnel plots supported robustness.HIIT also enhanced walking endurance(6MWD:g=0.32,95%CI:0.16-0.48,p<0.01;I^(2)=30%).In contrast,no significant benefit was observed for balance function(BBS:g=0.07,95%CI:-0.13-0.26,p=0.50;I^(2)=0%).[Conclusions]HIIT is a safe and highly effective intervention for enhancing aerobic capacity and walking function post-stroke.Its benefits are maximized at higher intensities and longer durations but do not extend to balance improvement.Integrating HIIT into stroke rehabilitation protocols is strongly recommended to promote functional independence.
文摘Objective:To explore the effect of cognitive intervention combined with aerobic limb rehabilitation exercise on neurological and limb functions in hemiplegic patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.Methods:A prospective study was conducted with eighty-six hemiplegic patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage admitted to Taikang Xianlin Drum Tower Hospital from October 2021 to October 2023.The patients were randomly divided into a study group(43 cases)and a control group(43 cases).After 6 months of intervention,neurological function,motor and limb function,psychological state,and quality of life scores were compared between the two groups to assess the effects of the intervention.Results:After the intervention,neurological function indexes in the study group,including S100B protein,myelin basic protein and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score,were significantly lower than those in the control group(all P<0.05).In contrast,brain-derived neurotrophic factor and Mini-Mental State Examination scores were significantly higher in the study group(all P<0.05).Additionally,motor function,Barthel score,Fugl-Meyer score,and muscle strength(grades V and IV)were significantly higher in the study group compared to the control group(all P<0.05).Psychological resilience,including scores for toughness,optimism,and strength,as well as the total resilience score,were significantly higher in the study group(all P<0.05).Moreover,the Generic Quality of Life Inventory score was also significantly higher in the study group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Cognitive intervention combined with aerobic limb rehabilitation exercises can alleviate neurological damage in hemiplegic patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage,enhance muscle strength,promote limb and motor function recovery,and improve psychological state and quality of life.

文摘Salmonella grows better under aerobic conditions as a facultative anaerobic foodborne pathogenic bacteria.The oxygen-scavenging activity of Lactococcus lactis in the intestinal tract is a promising strategy for preventing Salmonella infection.In this study,the aerobic respiration requirement and preventive mechanism of L.lactis subsp.lactis KLDS 4.0325 in murine models infected by Salmonella enterica subsp.enterica serovar Typhimurium(S.Typhimurium)SL1344 were investigated.Results indicate that L.lactis KLDS 4.0325 is capable of aerobic respiratory metabolism in the host intestine when exogenous heme exists,and decrease intestinal oxygen concentration,which in turn trigger autophagy of intestinal cells to reduce S.Typhimurium load,improve gut microbiota composition,alleviate intestinal barrier injury and inflammation response.These results suggest that aerobic respiration L.lactis KLDS 4.0325 can prevent S.Typhimurium infection in a new way in which by restoring intestinal cell hypoxia,maintaining immune balance and regulating intestinal flora.

文摘It is well known that appropriate aerobic exercise can effectively alleviate fatty liver and enhance brain function.The concept of multi-organ crosstalk coordinating disease progression has become the current research hot topic.However,there remains an urgent need to elucidate its specific mechanisms.This study aimed to explore the impact of a high-fat diet(HFD)on liver health and cognitive function,and to further uncover the regulatory effect of aerobic exercise by liver-specific activating transcription factor 3(Atf3)knockout(ATF3cKO)mice in a“liver-brain”axis mode.The 5-week-old C57BL/6 and ATF3cKO mice were fed with HFD for 32 weeks,and sequentially subjected to aerobic exercise intervention at the 20th week for another 12 consecutive weeks.Meanwhile,C57BL/6 mice were provided with a normal diet as the control group.The functional parameters of liver and brain of all mice were assessed.Cognitive capacity of all mice was assessed by the Morris water maze(MWM).Inflammatory factors in the serum and brain of mice were quantified using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),and the expression of inflammasomes was detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC).Additionally,the activation of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)and phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)signal pathways was analyzed by Western blotting.In this study,HFD impaired hepatic and brain functions,while aerobic exercise and liver-specific Atf3 knockout suppressed inflammatory factors in the peripheral circulation through hepatoprotective mechanisms,thereby attenuating cerebral inflammation and preserving neurological integrity,as well as mitigating HFD-induced cognitive decline.

文摘With the rapid development of the marine economy,marine microbiologically influenced corrosion(MIC)has garnered increasing attention.However,most studies have not analyzed the MIC process over continuous and extended periods,failing to provide a comprehensive understanding of MIC mechanisms at different stages.In this study,the corrosion behavior of EH36 steel caused by Halomonas titanicae in an aerobic enriched seawater over a 30-d incubation period was investigated driven by big data.The results revealed that the corrosion by H.titanicae against EH36 steel evolved dynamically over time.During the initial stages,the aerobic respiration of H.titanicae consumed significant amounts of oxygen,which suppressed the cathodic oxygen reduction process,thereby inhibiting corrosion compared to the abiotic conditions.As time progressed,the accumulation of corrosion products slowed the abiotic corrosion,while the biotic corrosion accelerated due to a shift from aerobic to anaerobic respiration by H.titanicae,utilizing Fe0 and nitrate as electron donors and acceptors,respectively.The big data results are consistent with the weight loss and electrochemical data,demonstrating the reliability of using big data monitoring techniques to characterize microbial corrosion processes.

文摘A bench-scale anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic process-biological aerated filter (A^2/O-BAF) combined system was carded out to treat wastewater with lower C/N and C/P ratios. The A^2/O process was operated in a short aerobic sludge retention time (SRT) for organic pollutants and phosphorus removal, and denitrification. The subsequent BAF process was mainly used for nitrification. The BAF effluent was partially returned to anoxic zone of the A^2/O process to provide electron acceptors for denitrification and anoxic P uptake. This unique system formed an environment for reproducing the denitdfying phosphate-accumulating organisms (DPAOs). The ratio of DPAOs to phosphorus accumulating organisms (PAOs) could be maintained at 28% by optimizing the organic loads in the anaerobic zone and the nitrate loads into the anoxic zone in the A^2/O process. The aerobic phosphorus over-uptake and discharge of excess activated sludge was the main mechanism of phosphorus removal in the combined system. The aerobic SRT of the A^2/O process should meet the demands for the development of aerobic PAOs and the restraint on the nitrifiers growth, and the contact time in the aerobic zone of the A^2/O process should be longer than 30 min, which ensured efficient phosphorus removal in the combined system. The adequate BAF effluent return rates should be controlled with 1--4 mg/L nitrate nitrogen in the anoxic zone effluent of A^2/O process to achieve the optimal nitrogen and phosphorus removal efficiencies.
