Red cell distribution width-to-albumin ratio at discharge predicts 14-day hospital readmission in nephrology inpatients: a retrospective cohort study

Hospital readmission within 14 days of discharge carries clinical and economic costs, particularly in nephrology patients whose inflammatory and nutritional status influence early recovery. The red cell distribution width-to-albumin ratio (RAR) is an inexpensive index that captur...

Salicylaldehyde-Grafted g-C3N4 for Enhanced Photocatalytic Degradation of Diclofenac and Antibiotics

Abstract In this study, salicylaldehyde-grafted modified graphitic carbon nitride (modified g-C3N4, denoted CNX) was synthesized via a mild, green solvent-assisted grafting strategy. The covalent incorporation of salicylaldehyde─rationally designed to leverage its aromatic and hy...

Linear maps on W⁎-algebras preserving elements annihilated by a continuous function

Denote by F either the real field R or the complex field C . Let f : F → F be a continuous function such that its zero set Z F ( f ) contains an isolated point and at least one other point. For a given λ ∈ F , the zero set Z F ( f ) is said to be λ -convex if λ Z F ( f ) + ( 1 −...
