Potential impacts of marine fuel regulations on an Arctic stratocumulus case and its radiative response by L. F. Escusa dos Santos, L. F. Escusa dos Santos, H. C. Frostenberg, A. Baró Pérez, A. M. L. Ekman, A. M. L. Ekman, L. Ickes, E. S. Thomson

“…Low-level stratiform mixed-phase clouds cover large areas of the Arctic region and play an important role in the regional energy budget. Results from laboratory marine engine measurements, which investigated the impact of fuel sulfur content (FSC) reduction and wet scrubbing on exhaust particle properties, motivate the use of large-eddy simulations to further investigate how such particles may influence the micro- and macrophysical properties of a stratiform mixed-phase cloud case observed during the Arctic Summer Cloud Ocean Study campaign. …”

Early Postoperative Safety of Total Hip Arthroplasty in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients by YANG Xingdong, YU Muyang, XU Yiming, ZHU Wei, HU Mingwei, WENG Xisheng, FENG Bin

“…After propensity score matching, 163 cases from SLE and control groups were included for analysis. (1) Regarding medical complications, compared with control group, SLE group showed significant differences in osteoporosis, respiratory system disorders, gastrointestinal diseases, urinary system disorders, hematologic abnormalities, and secondary or concomitant rheumatic diseases (all P < 0.05). (2) In terms of preoperative laboratory tests, SLE group had lower platelet counts, absolute lymphocyte counts, hemoglobin levels, hematocrit, albumin levels, blood glucose levels, and activated partial thromboplastin times than control group, while C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and D-dimer levels were higher (all P < 0.05). (3) Regarding surgical-related indicators, a higher proportion of patients in SLE group had an ASA grade > 2 (15.95% vs. 3.07%, P < 0.001), but intraoperative blood loss was significantly smaller [324.7 (200.0, 500.0) mL vs. 421.8 (200.0, 500.0) mL, P=0.005]. (4) In terms of complications, SLE group exhibited a significantly higher incidence of major complications than control group (8.59% vs. 1.23%, P=0.005), with a relative risk of 1.081 (95% CI: 1.028-1.136). …”
