Quenching peroxynitrite (a reactive oxidant species) is a vital process in biological systems and environmental chemistry as it maintains redox balance and mitigates damaging effects in living cells and the environment. In this study, we report a systematic analysis of the mechanism of transforming peroxynitrite into nitrate using diaryl selenide in water. Through quantum mechanical calculations, we investigate the dynamic isomerization of peroxynitrite in a homogeneous catalytic environment.

- The American Association of Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology aims to keep clinicians informed with brief, current reviews on essential interventional pulmonology topics, starting with malignant pleural disease.
- The article consists of three parts that update readers on malignant pleural effusion: diagnosis through imaging and fluid biomarkers, management strategies including multimodal approaches and targeted therapies, and details on pleural mesothelioma.
- These reviews are part of the Essential Knowledge series presented at the 2023 AABIP Annual Conference, and recorded lectures are available for access on the AABIP website.
Article Synopsis
- Researchers are using neuroimaging data and deep learning techniques to study how intelligence and other cognitive traits are connected to brain activity.
- By analyzing data from 874 subjects, they predicted cognitive scores based on brain function during language and working memory tasks, achieving a modest explanation of intelligence variance.
- Results indicated that task-based brain connectivity is a stronger predictor of intelligence than resting-state data, and no specific brain network was identified as crucial, indicating intelligence may be spread evenly across the brain.

Iron is the most abundant trace metal in the human brain and consistently shown elevated in prevalent neurological disorders. Because of its paramagnetism, brain iron can be assessed in vivo by quantitative MRI techniques such as R* mapping and Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM). While Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) has demonstrated good correlations of the total iron content to MRI parameters in gray matter, the relationship to ferritin levels as assessed by Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) has not been systematically analyzed.
