Aggregation-induced emission(AIE)for next-generation biosensing and imaging: A review.

Luminescence technology is a powerful analytical tool for biomedical research as well as for marker detection. Luminescent materials with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties have attracted extensive research interest, and their unique luminescence characteristics, biocompatibility, and sensitivity make them useful for the development of fluorescence-turn-on biosensors with superior sensitivity. While numerous reviews have focused on the design of AIEgens, comprehensive summaries on the strategies for biosensor preparation and application fields remain limited.

Engineering Optimization of Producing High-Purity Dichlorosilane in a Fixed-Bed Reactor by Trichlorosilane Decomposition.

High-purity dichlorosilane (DCS) is an important raw material for thin film deposition in the semiconductor industry, such as epitaxial silicon, which is mainly produced by trichlorosilane (TCS) catalytic decomposition in a fixed-bed reactor. The productivity of DCS is strongly dependent on the controlling of the TCS decomposition reaction process, associated with the cost in practical application. In this study, we have performed computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation on the TCS decomposition reaction kinetics in a cylindrical fixed-bed reactor, in which the effects of catalyst bed height, feed temperature, and feed flow rate are stressed to predict the conversion rate of TCS and the generation rate of DCS.

Long-term outcomes of esophageal and gastric cancer patients with cardiovascular and metabolic diseases: A two-center propensity score-matched cohort study.

Background And Objectives: An increased risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases (CVMDs) among patients with cancer suggests a potential link between CVMD and cancer. The impact of CVMD on the survival time of patients with esophageal and gastric cancer remains unknown. We aimed to determine the incidence of CVMD and its impact on the longterm outcomes in esophageal and gastric cancer patients.

Distinct Role of Surface Hydroxyls in Single-Atom Pt/CeO Catalyst for Room-Temperature Formaldehyde Oxidation: Acid-Base Versus Redox.

The development of highly efficient catalysts for room-temperature formaldehyde (HCHO) oxidation is of great interest for indoor air purification. In this work, it was found that the single-atom Pt/CeO catalyst exhibits a remarkable activity with complete removal of HCHO even at 288 K. Combining density functional theory calculations and DRIFTS experiments, it was revealed that the active OH site generated on CeO in the vicinity of Pt via steam treatment plays a key role in the oxidation of HCHO to formate and its further oxidation to CO.

Efficacy of stem cells therapy for Crohn's fistula: a meta-analysis and systematic review.

Background: Fistulas have puzzled us all the time and stem cell therapy for it is still in its infancy. We conducted a meta-analysis and systematic review to evaluate the efficacy of stem cells and its potential mechanisms in the management of Crohn's fistula.

Methods: Electronic databases were searched comprehensively for studies reporting the efficacy and safety of stem cells in patients with any form of Crohn's fistula.

The Value of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in the Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background And Aims: Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has challenged the traditional management of ulcerative colitis (UC) in recent years, while it remained controversial. We aimed to provide a systematic protocol of FMT treatment on UC.

Methods: Studies reporting on FMT treatment in UC patients were performed.

Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation for Liver Cell Failure: A New Direction and Option.

Background And Aims: Mesenchymal stem cell transplantation (MSCT) became available with liver failure (LF), while the advantages of MSCs remain controversial. We aimed to assess clinical advantages of MSCT in patients with LF.

Methods: Clinical researches reporting MSCT in LF patients were searched and included.
