The Dynamic Characteristics and Influencing Factors of Soil Respiration in Different Types of Grasslands in the Barkol Lake Basin by Xiangdong Cao, Chengyi Zhao, Hongtao Jia, Jinyu Yang

“…Determining regional and global carbon cycles hinges on investigating the dynamic characteristics and influencing factors of soil respiration in various types of natural grasslands located in arid regions, and these characteristics are important indicators for assessing the structural and functional health of grassland ecosystems. Such investigations also provide theoretical support for carbon sink monitoring, energy conservation, emission reduction and low-carbon development in the western arid zone and are important for obtaining an in-depth understanding of the carbon cycle, as well as for ecosystem management, restoration and the reconstruction of arid areas. …”

The PBPK model showed a greater increase in drug distribution to the bone marrow in the HC group (20.66 μg/mL vs. 14.34 μg/mL), with a smaller rise in the kidney (376.2 μg/mL vs. 327.7 μg/mL).ConclusionMaintaining vancomycin concentrations of 15–20 μg/mL is associated with better infection control for PJI patients who present with higher synovial WBC account, without compromising patient safety, joint function, or long-term quality of life.…”
