A of Lamblial Cholecystitis

A case of lamblial cholecystitis in 31-year-old male patient was stupied, and the following findings were obtained: 1. The patient developed no intestinal symptom, whereas the main complaint was fever and right hypochondralgia. 2. He was a hard muscular laborer and a heavy drinker of raw alcoholic beverage. 3. There was found hepatomegaly, a tumor in cystic region with tender-ness. Lamblia intestinalis was discovered in B-and C-gall. 4. Gastric juice, urine and feces were examined for lamblia. No lamblia was identified by smear method, but culture in Dobell and Waidaw\u27s media proved the presence of lamblia in feces. 5. Hematological study revealed no eosinophilia but relative lymphocytosis. 6. Hypersensitivity of the autonomous nervous system causing Oddi\u27s muscle contraction was not demonstrated. 7. As for treatment, chloroqine diphosphate was used with good response

Ni-Doped Protonated Layered Titanate/TiO2 Composite with Efficient Photocatalytic Activity for NOx Decomposition Reactions

A unique structural transformation of a lepidocrocite-type layered titanate, K0.8Ti1.73Li0.27O4, into a rutile-type TiO2 has recently been realized via dilute HCl treatment and subsequent drying at room temperature for producing rutile-nanoparticle-decorated protonated layered titanate exhibiting highly efficient photocatalytic activity. Herein, the authors report synthesis of a lepidocrocite-type layered cesium titanate with nominal compositions of Cs0.7Ti1.825‐x/2Nix□0.175‐x/2O4 (x=0, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.35) through solid-state reactions of Cs2CO3, TiO2, and Ni(CH3COO)2·4H2O at different temperatures (600 or 800°C), followed by treatment with dilute HCl and subsequent drying to produce a Ni-doped protonated layered titanate/TiO2 composite. Cs0.7Ti1.825‐x/2Nix□0.175‐x/2O4 with an optimized Ni content obtained at a lower temperature was converted into a Ni-doped protonated layered titanate/TiO2 composite to exhibit high photocatalytic activity for NOx decomposition reactions

Room-Temperature Rutile TiO₂ Nanoparticle Formation on Protonated Layered Titanate for High-Performance Heterojunction Creation

We report a methodology for creating protonated layered titanate–rutile heterojunctions on the outer particle surface of protonated layered titanate by treating layered potassium titanate (K_0.8Ti_1.73Li_0.27O₄) with dilute HCl and then drying it at room temperature under reduced pressure. After Pt co-catalyst loading, this protonated layered titanate/rutile composite with heterojunctions showed higher photocatalytic H₂ evolution activity from water under simulated solar light compared to that of Pt-loaded P25, the standard photocatalyst for this reaction. The high photocatalytic activity was ascribable to enhanced photocatalytic activity of the protonated layered titanate based on an efficient charge separation at the protonated layered titanate–rutile heterojunction in addition to the sensitization effects of rutile, which absorbs light with longer wavelengths compared to those of protonated layered titanate
