Abstract
With the rapid progress in urbanization, frequent urban waterlogging and non-point source pollution are threatening the living and health of human beings. Sponge city construction has become an effective means to curb urban waterlogging. Although related studies have explored the comprehensive benefits of sponge cities, few studies have been conducted on the effects of different geographical environments on runoff control and suspended solid (SS) removal. Based on 76 cities with sponge cities in China, this study used the meta-analysis method to evaluate the relationships of climate, terrain, underlying surface conditions, and construction area with the increase in the total annual runoff control rate and SS removal rate. The results reveal that the runoff control benefit can be significantly improved by sponge cities under the combined conditions of average annual precipitation of approximately 1000 mm, high fractional vegetation cover, sufficient soil fertility, a terrain slope i of ≤2%, and a permeability coefficient of strata of 100-200 m/d, especially in northern China, where the weight representing the quantity of comprehensive benefits was calculated to be 25.5%. In addition, the study results assist in reforming unfavorable geographical environments in the construction of sponge city, thus providing more effective solutions for tackling SS pollution. The most significant benefits of SS removal were obtained in north central China, where the weight was 21.4%. This study comprehensively investigated the effects of geographical environmental factors on the comprehensive benefits of sponge city reflected by the improvement in the total annual runoff control rate and the SS removal rate. The results will provide guidance for the planning and design of global sponge cities and effectively optimize the practice, scale, and location of existing construction based on specific geographical environments.

Circulating virome and inflammatory proteome in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction and primary ventricular fibrillation. Sci Rep 2022; 12:7910. [PMID: 35552514 PMCID: PMC9098642 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-12075-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2021] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Primary ventricular fibrillation (PVF) is a life-threatening complication of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). It is unclear what roles viral infection and/or systemic inflammation may play as underlying triggers of PVF, as a second hit in the context of acute ischaemia. Here we aimed to evaluate whether the circulating virome and inflammatory proteome were associated with PVF development in patients with STEMI. Blood samples were obtained from non-PVF and PVF STEMI patients at the time of primary PCI, and from non-STEMI healthy controls. The virome profile was analysed using VirCapSeq-VERT (Virome Capture Sequencing Platform for Vertebrate Viruses), a sequencing platform targeting viral taxa of 342,438 representative sequences, spanning all virus sequence records. The inflammatory proteome was explored with the Olink inflammation panel, using the Proximity Extension Assay technology. After analysing all viral taxa known to infect vertebrates, including humans, we found that non-PVF and PVF patients only significantly differed in the frequencies of viruses in the Gamma-herpesvirinae and Anelloviridae families. In particular, most showed a significantly higher relative frequency in non-PVF STEMI controls. Analysis of systemic inflammation revealed no significant differences between the inflammatory profiles of non-PVF and PVF STEMI patients. Inflammatory proteins associated with cell adhesion, chemotaxis, cellular response to cytokine stimulus, and cell activation proteins involved in immune response (IL6, IL8 CXCL-11, CCL-11, MCP3, MCP4, and ENRAGE) were significantly higher in STEMI patients than non-STEMI controls. CDCP1 and IL18-R1 were significantly higher in PVF patients compared to healthy subjects, but not compared to non-PVF patients. The circulating virome and systemic inflammation were not associated with increased risk of PVF development in acute STEMI. Accordingly, novel strategies are needed to elucidate putative triggers of PVF in the setting of acute ischaemia, in order to reduce STEMI-driven sudden death burden.
