Investigation of mechanical behavior of slag-stabilized rammed earth reinforced by carpet polyacrylic yarn waste by Amirhossein Naseri, Omid Ghasemi, Seyed Mohammad Fattahi, Parsa Najafipour, Ahmad Fahimifar

“…The results showed that the mechanical and resistance properties of the CFS and SCFS samples were improved; these findings were confirmed by the presence of more cohesive GGBS gel and fibers as seen in FE-SEM and microscopic images. Therefore, the use of GGBS and CPYW, both separately and in combination, is suggested as a viable approach to enhance mechanical performance and reduce the brittle failure propensity of RE structures. …”

Metagenomic next-generation sequencing assists in the diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis in non-endemic areas of China by Rui Zhao, Guilun He, Lin Xiang, Melinda Ji, Rongheng He, Xudong Wei

“…Direct identification of infected tissues is currently the primary method of diagnosis; however, the low sensitivity and inconvenience of microscopic examination in detecting amastigotes, parasitic manifestations of Leishmania, leads to the possibility of misdiagnosis, delayed diagnosis, and underdiagnosis.MethodsWith the development of metagenomic nextgeneration sequencing (mNGS) technology for pathogen identification, it is possible to detect specific nucleic acid sequences characteristic of Leishmania parasites, which opens new avenues for the more accurate diagnosis of leishmaniasis. …”
